NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This summary of accounting policies for Capstone Companies, Inc. ("CAPC" or the "Company"), a Florida corporation (formerly, "CHDT Corporation") and its wholly-owned subsidiaries is presented to assist in understanding the Company's consolidated financial statements. The accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

Interim Financial Statements

The unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly state the financial position and results of operations for the periods. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year due to the seasonal nature of the Company's business. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified in order to conform to the covered periods presentation. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Organization and Basis of Presentation

CAPC was initially incorporated September 18, 1986, under the laws of the State of Delaware under the name Yorkshire Leveraged Group, Incorporated, and then changed its domicile to Colorado in 1989 by merging into a Colorado corporation, named Freedom Funding, Inc. Freedom Funding, Inc. then changed its name to CBQ, Inc. by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation on November 25, 1998. In May 2004, the Company changed its name from CBQ, Inc. to China Direct Trading Corporation as part of a reincorporation from the State of Colorado to the State of Florida. On May 7, 2007, the Company amended its charter to change its name from "China Direct Trading Corporation" to CHDT Corporation. This name change was effective as of July 16, 2007, for purposes of the change of its name on the OTC Bulletin Board. With the name change, the trading symbol was changed to CHDO. On June 6, 2012, the Company amended its charter to change its name from CHDT Corporation to CAPSTONE COMPANIES, INC. This name change was effective as of July 6, 2012, for purposes of the change of its name on the OTC Bulletin Board. With the name change, the trading symbol was changed to CAPC.

In February 2004, the Company established a new subsidiary, initially named China Pathfinder Fund, L.L.C., a Florida limited liability company. During 2005, the name was changed to Overseas Building Supply, LLC ("OBS") to reflect its shift in business lines from business development consulting services in China for North American companies to trading Chinese-made building supplies in South Florida. This business line was ended in fiscal year 2007 and the OBS name was changed to Black Box Innovations, L.L.C. ("BBI") on March 20, 2008. On January 31, 2012, the BBI name was changed to Capstone Lighting Technologies, L.L.C ("CLT").

On September 13, 2006, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Capstone Industries, Inc., a Florida corporation ("Capstone"). Capstone was incorporated in Florida on May 15, 1996 and is engaged primarily in the business of wholesaling low technology consumer products to distributors and retailers in the United States. Under the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Capstone Common Stock, and recorded goodwill of $1,936,020.

On April 13, 2012, the Company established a wholly owned subsidiary in Hong Kong, named Capstone International Hong Kong Ltd ("CIHK") which is engaged in selling the Company's products internationally and provides other services such as new product development, product sourcing, quality control, ocean freight logistics, product testing and factory certifications for the Company's other subsidiaries.

Nature of Business

Since the beginning of fiscal year 2007, the Company has been primarily engaged in the business of developing, marketing and selling consumer products through national and regional retailers and distributors in North America. Capstone currently operates in five primary product categories: Induction Charged Power Failure Lights; LED Night Lights and Power Failure Lights; Motion Sensor Lights; Wireless Remote Control Outlets and Wireless Remote Control Accent Lights. The Company's products are typically manufactured in China by third-party manufacturing companies.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents, to the extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

An allowance for doubtful accounts is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for bad debts charged to earnings. The allowance for bad debt is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management's periodic review of the collectability of the receivables. This evaluation is inherently subjective and requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revisions as more information becomes available.

As of both March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, management has determined that accounts receivables are fully collectible. As such, management has not recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts.

Accounts Receivable Pledged as Collateral

As of both March 31, 2016, and December 31, 2015, 100% of accounts receivable serve as collateral for the Company's notes payable.

Inventory

The Company's inventory, is recorded at lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market, consists of finished goods for resale by Capstone, totaling $232,384 and $205,708 at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

Prepaid Expenses

The Company's prepaid expenses consist primarily of deposits on inventory for future orders as well as other prepaid advertising expense.

Property and Equipment

Fixed assets are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated economic useful lives of the related assets as follows:

Computer equipment	3 - 7 years
Computer software	3 - 7 years
Machinery and equipment	3 - 7 years
Furniture and fixtures	3 - 7 years

Long-lived assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount may not be recoverable. When required, impairment losses on assets to be held and used are recognized based on the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of, if any, are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. No impairment losses were recognized by the Company during 2015 or during the period ended March 31, 2016.

Upon sale or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the determination of income or loss.

Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Major overhauls and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated economic useful lives.

Depreciation expense was $14,061 and $12,687for the periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Intangible assets acquired, either individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired in a business combination), are initially recognized and measured based on fair value. Goodwill acquired in business combinations is initially computed as the amount paid by the acquiring company in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

The cost of internally developing, maintaining and restoring intangible assets (including goodwill) that are not specifically identifiable, that have indeterminate lives, or that are inherent in a continuing business and related to an entity as a whole, are recognized as an expense when incurred.

An intangible asset (excluding goodwill) with a definite useful life is amortized; an intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is not amortized until its useful life is determined to be no longer indefinite. The remaining useful lives of intangible assets not being amortized are evaluated at least annually to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life.

If and when an intangible asset is determined to no longer have an indefinite useful life, the asset shall then be amortized prospectively over its estimated remaining useful life and accounted for in the same manner as other intangibles that are subject to amortization.

An intangible asset (including goodwill) that is not subject to amortization shall be tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The impairment test consists of a comparison of the fair value of the intangible assets with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of an intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess. Goodwill is not amortized.

It is the Company's policy to test for impairment no less than annually, or when conditions occur that may indicate impairment. The Company's intangible assets, which consist of goodwill of $1,936,020 recorded in connection with the Capstone acquisition, were tested for impairment and determined that no adjustment for impairment was necessary as of December 31, 2015, whereas the fair value of the intangible asset exceeds its carrying amount.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share were computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. For calculation of the diluted net income per share, the basic weighted average number of shares is increased by the dilutive effect of stock options and restricted share awards, determined using the treasury stock method. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. At March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015, the total number of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents was 88,630,388 and 158,208,813, respectively.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 include the accounts of the parent entity and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Capstone Lighting Technologies, L.L.C., Capstone Industries, Inc. and Capstone International HK, LTD. All significant intra-entity transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments, including cash, prepaid expenses, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 approximates their fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

The fair value hierarchy under U.S. GAAP distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and an entity's own assumptions (unobservable inputs). The hierarchy consists of three levels:

·	Level one — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

·	Level two — Inputs other than level one inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and

·	Level three — Unobservable inputs developed using estimates and assumptions, which are developed by the reporting entity and reflect those assumptions that a market participant would use.

Determining which category an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment. We evaluate our hierarchy disclosures each quarter.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Cost Method of Accounting for Investment

Investments in equity securities that do not have readily determinable fair values and do not qualify for consolidation or the equity method are carried at cost. Dividends received from those companies are included in other income. Dividends received in excess of the Company's proportionate share of accumulated earnings are applied as a reduction of the cost of the investment. Other than temporary impairments to fair value are charged against current period income.

Revenue Recognition

Product sales are recognized when an agreement of sale exists, product delivery has occurred, pricing is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.

Allowances for sales returns, rebates and discounts are recorded as a component of net sales in the period the allowances are recognized. In addition, accrued liabilities contained in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets include accruals for estimated amounts of credits to be issued in future years based on potentially defective product, other product returns and various allowances.

During the three-month periods, ending March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company determined that $94,203 and $181,978, respectively of previously accrued promotional allowances were no longer required. The reduction of promotional allowances is included in net revenues for the periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

Advertising and Promotion

Advertising and promotion costs, including advertising, public relations, and trade show expenses, are expensed as incurred and included in sales and marketing expenses. Advertising and promotion expense was $3,053 and $3,596 for the periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As of both March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company has $275,019 in capitalized advertising costs included in prepaid expenses on the consolidated balance sheets.

Shipping and Handling

The Company's shipping and handling costs are included in sales and marketing expenses and amounted to $26,255 and $14,288 for the periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Accrued Liabilities

Accrued liabilities contained in the accompanying balance sheets include accruals for estimated amounts of credits to be issued in future years based on potentially defective products, other product returns and various allowances. These estimates could change significantly in the near term.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") 740 Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires recognition of deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax consequences, based on enacted tax laws, of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company and its U.S. subsidiaries intend to file consolidated income tax returns.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of ASC 718 Compensation- Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including employee stock options, based on estimated fair values.

ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of the grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the Company's consolidated statements of operations.

Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest during the period.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

In conjunction with the adoption of ASC 718, the Company adopted the straight-line single option method of attributing the value of stock-based compensation expense. As stock-based compensation expense is recognized during the period based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it is subject to reduction for estimated forfeitures. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. As for the periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, there were no material amounts subject to forfeiture.

The Company recognizes compensation expense paid with common stock and other equity instruments issued for assets and services received based upon the fair value of the assets/services or the equity instruments issued, whichever is more readily determined.

As of the date of this report, the Company has not adopted a method to account for the tax effects of stock-based compensation pursuant to ASC 718 and related interpretations. However, whereas the Company has substantial net operating losses to offset future taxable income and its current deferred tax asset is completely reduced by the valuation allowance, no material tax effects are anticipated.

Stock-based compensation for the three month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 totaled $14,250 and $29,433, respectively.

Recent Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the FASB made available ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606. ASU 2014-09 affects any entity using U.S. GAAP that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (e.g., insurance contracts or lease contracts). This ASU will supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance. This ASU also supersedes some cost guidance included in Subtopic 605-35, Revenue Recognition—Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts. In addition, the existing requirements for the recognition of a gain or loss on the transfer of nonfinancial assets that are not in a contract with a customer (e.g., assets within the scope of Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, and Intangible Assets within the scope of Topic 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other) are amended to be consistent with the guidance on recognition and measurement (including the constraint on revenue) in this ASU. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, an entity should apply the following steps:

Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer.

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

Step 3: Determine the transaction price.

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

Step 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

In August 2015, the effective date of this guidance was deferred by one year and now will be effective for the Company's annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is permitted.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), ("ASU 2016-08"). This ASU clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. The updated guidance improves the understandability of determining whether an entity is a principal or agent, the nature of the good or service, and involvement of other parties in a sale. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASU 2016-10"). ASU 2016-10 clarifies two aspects of Topic 606: identifying performance obligation and the licensing implementation guidance, while retaining the related principles for those areas. The amendments in ASU 2016-08 and ASU 2016-10 are effective in conjunction with ASU 2015-14. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-09 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. The issue is the result of a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force. The amendments in the ASU require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. A reporting entity should apply existing guidance in Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, as it relates to awards with performance conditions that affect vesting to account for such awards. The performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered. If the performance target becomes probable of being achieved before the end of the requisite service period, the remaining unrecognized compensation cost should be recognized prospectively over the remaining

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

requisite service period. The total amount of compensation cost recognized during and after the requisite service period should reflect the number of awards that are expected to vest and should be adjusted to reflect those awards that ultimately vest. The requisite service period ends when the employee can cease rendering service and still be eligible to vest in the award if the performance target is achieved. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU during the quarter ended March 31, 2016 and there was no material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidations (Topic 225-20): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis, which affects current consolidation guidance. The guidance changes the analysis that a reporting entity must perform to determine whether it should consolidate certain types of legal entities. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU during the quarter ended March 31, 2016 and there was no material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest (Topic 225-20): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issue Costs, that simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs. The guidance requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by these amendments. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU during the quarter ended March 31, 2016 and there was no material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330), Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, that simplifies the measurement of inventory and more closely aligns the U.S. GAAP measurement of inventory with the measure of inventory under International Financial Reporting Standards. The guidance requires entities utilizing the first-in, first-out method to measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value, with net realizable value defined as the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The amendments in this ASU do not apply to inventory that is measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method. This amendment should be applied prospectively and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The adoption of ASU 2015-11 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, which requires that all deferred income taxes be classified as noncurrent in the balance sheet, rather than being separated into current and noncurrent amounts. This standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The adoption of ASU 2015-17 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities ("ASU 2016-01"). ASU 2016-01 modifies how entities measure equity investments and present changes in the fair value of financial liabilities. Under the new guidance, entities will have to measure equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income unless the investments qualify for the new practicality exception. A practicality exception will apply to those equity investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value and do not qualify for the practical expedient to estimate fair value under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, and as such these investments may be measured at cost. ASU 2016-01 will be effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2017 and subsequent interim periods. The adoption of ASU 2016-01 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases ("ASU 2016-02"), which provides guidance for accounting for leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to classify leases as either finance or operating leases and to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a terms greater than 12 months regardless of the lease classification. The lease classification will determine whether the lease expense is recognized based on effective interest rate method or a straight line basis over the term of the lease. Accounting for lessors remains largely unchanged from current GAAP. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2018 and subsequent interim periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adaption of ASU 2016-02 will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting ("ASU 2016-09"). ASU 2016-09 simplifies several aspects related to the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes statutory tax withholding requirements and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 will be effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2016 and subsequent interim periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2016-09 will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

The Company continually assesses any new accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability to the Company. Where it is determined that a new accounting pronouncement affects the Company's financial reporting, the Company undertakes a study to determine the consequence of the change to its financial statements and assures that there are proper controls in place to ascertain that the Company's financials properly reflect the change.

Pervasiveness of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and the differences could be material.

NOTE 2 - CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK AND ECONOMIC DEPENDENCE

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.

The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company at times has cash and cash equivalents with its financial institution in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance limits. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions which minimize these risks. As of March 31, 2016, the Company had $129,729 in excess of FDIC limits.

Accounts Receivable

The Company grants credit to its customers, substantially all of whom are retail establishments located throughout the United States and their international locations. The Company typically does not require collateral from customers. Credit risk is limited due to the financial strength of the customers comprising the Company's customer base and their dispersion across different geographical regions. The Company monitors exposure of credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses considered necessary under the circumstances.

Major Customers

The Company had two customers who comprised 61% and 30% of gross revenue during the period ended March 31, 2016 and two customers who comprised 52% and 27% of gross revenue during the period ended March 31, 2015. The loss of these customers would adversely impact the business of the Company.

Approximately 50% and 52% of the Company's gross revenue for the periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively was from international sales.

As of March 31, 2016, approximately 96% of accounts receivable were from one customer. As of December 31, 2015, approximately 99% of accounts receivable were from two customers.

Major Vendors

The Company had two vendors from which it purchased 81% and 10% of merchandise during the period ended March 31, 2016, and two vendors from which it purchased 61% and 30% of merchandise during the period ended March 31, 2015. The loss of these suppliers would adversely impact the business of the Company.

As of March 31, 2016, approximately 65% of accounts payable were due to two vendors. As of December 31, 2015, approximately 95% of accounts payable were due to two customers.

NOTE 3 – NOTES PAYABLE

Sterling National Bank

On September 8,2010, in order to fund increasing accounts receivables and support working capital needs, Capstone secured a Financing Agreement from Sterling Capital Funding (now called Sterling National Bank), located in New York, whereby Capstone receives funds for assigned retailer shipments. The assignments provide funding for an amount up to 85% of net invoices submitted. There will be a base management fee equal to .45% of the gross invoice amount. The interest rate of the loan advance is .25% above Sterling National Bank's Base Rate which at time of closing was 5%. As of March 31, 2016, the interest rate on the loan was 5.25%. The amounts borrowed under this agreement are due on demand and secured by a right to set-off on or against any of the following (collectively as "Collateral"): all accounts including those at risk, all reserves, instruments, documents, notes, bills and chattel paper, letter of credit rights, commercial tort claims, proceeds of insurance, other forms of obligations owing to Sterling National Bank, bank and other deposit accounts whether or not reposed with affiliates, general intangibles (including without limitation all tax refunds, contract rights, trade names, trademarks, trade secrets, customer lists, software and all other licenses, rights, privileges and franchises), all balances, sums and other property at any time to our credit or in Sterling National Bank's possession or in the possession of any Sterling Affiliates, together with all merchandise, the sale of which resulted in the creation of accounts receivable and in all such merchandise that may be returned by customers and all books and records relating to any of the foregoing, including the cash and non-cash proceeds of all of the foregoing.

Capstone and Howard Ullman, the previous Chairman of the Board of Directors of CHDT, had personally guaranteed Capstone's obligations under the Financing Agreement. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the balance due to Sterling was $354,697 and $2,275,534, respectively.

NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES

As of March, 2016, the Company had significant net operating loss carry forwards remaining that will begin to expire in 2033. The Company has determined that a full valuation allowance against its net deferred taxes is necessary as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various state jurisdictions and certain other jurisdictions. Tax regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to the interpretation of the relaxed tax laws and regulations and require significant

judgment to apply. The Company is not subject to U.S. federal, state and local tax examinations by tax authorities for the years 2012 and prior.

If the Company were to subsequently record an unrecognized tax benefit, associated penalties and tax related interest expense would be reported as a component of income tax expense.

The provision for income taxes for the three and month period ended March 31, 2016 was calculated based on estimated annual effective rate for the full 2016 calendar year, adjusted for an income tax benefit from the expected utilization of net operating loss carryforwards.

The Company evaluates its valuation allowance requirements based on projected future operations. When circumstances change and cause a change in management's judgment about the recoverability of deferred tax assets, the impact of the change on the valuation is reflected in current income.

NOTE 8 – COST METHOD INVESTMENTS

On January 15, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with AC Kinetics, Inc. to purchase 100 shares of AC Kinetics Series A Preferred Stock for $500,000. These shares carry a liquidation preference in the amount of $500,000, are convertible at the Company's demand into 3% of the outstanding shares of AC Kinetics common stock and have anti-dilution protection.

In addition, the Company and AC Kinetics have agreed to cooperate in the development and commercialization of consumer and industrial products to be solely owned by the Company. AC Kinetics will be the Company's advanced product developer. AC Kinetics will notify the appropriate technology departments at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ("MIT") of the Company's ability and desire to commercialize consumer and industrial products developed in the MIT incubator departments.

The Company and AC Kinetics also entered into a royalty agreement whereby, the Company will receive a 7% royalty on any licensing revenues received by AC Kinetics for products sold by them. This royalty agreement will terminate upon receipt by the Company of royalties of $500,000.

The aggregate carrying amount of cost method investments at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 consisted of the following:

		2016				2015
AC Kinetics Series A Convertible Preferred Stock		$	500,000			$	500,000

It was not practicable to estimate fair value of AC Kinetics Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and such an estimate was not made because, at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there were no events or changes in circumstances that could have had a significant adverse effect on the fair value of such investments.

NOTE 9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On April 22, 2016, the Company received a credit of approximately $479,000 from its major vendor to cover customer returns of defective products from sales that occurred in 2015 and promotional allowances for 2016 sales.

The Company is a "penny stock" under Commission rules and the public stock market price for its Common Stock has been depressed for several consecutive fiscal quarters. The Company's Common Stock lacks sufficient or active primary market makers and institutional investor support in the public market and this lack of support means that any increase in the per share price of our Common Stock in the public market is usually eliminated by selling pressure from profit taking by investors. As of May 2, 2016, the Common Stock was trading at $.02 on the Bid Investment in our Common Stock. Investment in our Common Stock is highly risky and should only be considered by investors who can afford to lose their investment and do not require on demand liquidity. Investors should consider risk factors in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and other SEC filings of the Company.

Factors Affecting our Financial Performance.

Our operating results are or may be primarily affected by the following factors:

* Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow, which in turn is dependent on the following factors;

* Our ability to develop and effectively update and market our products;

* Our ability to procure and maintain on commercially reasonable terms relationships with third parties from whom we acquire product inventory;

* Our ability to identify and pursue channels through which we will be able to market our products;

* Our ability to attract new customers for our products;

* Our ability to manage our costs and maintain low overhead as well as access affordable funding on a timely basis; and

* Our sales are currently dependent on our ability to attract retail customers on cost-effective terms to brick and mortar retail locations or to on-line retailer Amazon.com. Studies like The Neilson Company's August 2014 "E-Commerce: Evolution or Revolution in the Fast Moving Consumer Goods World," document that e-commerce is increasingly important in consumer goods industry. With the growing importance of e-commerce and Web-based or online marketing through online mediums like Facebook, Pinterest, Yahoo!(R) Groups and YouTube.com, as well as "viral" marketing through Twitter or Instagram, online blogs and consumer use of Internet search engines like Google and Bing, we recognize a need to enhance our such non-traditional Social Media marketing avenues, but we may be unable to successfully develop such non-traditional marketing strategies and efforts or may lack the available funds to do so as long as traditional marketing and sales through retailers and their stores remain our central marketing and sales strategy. Reliance on traditional brick-and-mortar retailers is itself a risk factor for our company.

Introduction

The following discussion and analysis provides an introduction to our company, its current strategy and customers and summarizes the significant factors affecting: (i) our consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared with the same period in 2015 and (ii) financial liquidity and capital resources.

We are a public holding company organized under the laws of the State of Florida. We design and manufacture a line of specialty power failure lighting solutions and other innovative specialty consumer lighting products for the North American and Global retail markets through our operating subsidiaries. Our primary operating subsidiary is Capstone Industries, Inc., a Florida corporation located in the principal executive offices of the Company ("CAPI"). Capstone International Hong Kong, Ltd., or "CIHK", was established to expand our product development, engineering and factory resource capabilities in Hong Kong. Our product line consists of stylish, innovative and easy to use consumer lighting products, including power failure multi-function handheld lights, power failure multi-function nightlights and wall-plates, decorative nightlights, wireless motion sensor lights, remote control battery powered accent lights and remote control outlets. Our products are sold under CAPI brand name, "Capstone Lighting," and also under a nationally recognized licensed brand. We seek to deliver strong, consistent business results and superior shareholder returns by providing consumers on a global basis with unique products that make their lives simpler and safer.

We oversee the manufacturing of our products, which are currently all made in China by contract manufacturers, through our three wholly-owned operating subsidiaries: CAPI, CIHK and CLTL. Our Chinese contract manufacturers may participate in the design of our products. We believe that we have commercially reasonable terms with our Chinese contract manufacturers. Our products are typically shipped from China contract manufacturers and stored in warehouses or distributors in our markets. From time to time, we evaluate our relationship with existing contract manufacturers as well as alternative contract manufacturing sources in China and elsewhere as part of our contingent planning.

Strategy

Our objective is to increase profitability, cash flow and revenues while enhancing our position as a leading manufacturer, marketer and distributor through the ongoing development of innovative and technologically advanced ideas and concepts for the LED Home Lighting consumer product categories. We plan to leverage our product successes by expanding our offerings into all categories of the LED Home Lighting product lines. We have established the 'Capstone Lighting' brand in the power failure and wireless motion sensor light product lines and also in the Remote Controlled Battery Accent Lights and Wireless Remote Controlled outlet lines. To successfully enter into the expanded new Home LED product lines, we determined a highly recognized national brand could be advantageous. In 2014 the Company initiated a search for a brand name that would resonate with consumers. The desired brand had to have a perceived rich heritage, and one hopefully trusted by American homeowners for high performance, quality and innovative products. With the brand name secured and marketing campaign finalized, the Company successfully launched (in terms of gross sales) its largest expansion of new products in the Company's history at the International Hardware Show in May 2015. The Company will continue its focus on product expansion with major product releases scheduled for the International Hardware Show in May 2016.

Our 2013 investment in AC Kinetic Technologies, an Armonk, New York technology development company, has allowed us to develop certain innovative concepts that the Company has conceived that are complex and that will hopefully yield intellectual property which will further distinguish the Company's products from other off-the-shelf products commonly marketed at retail. The Company plans to exploit the trade secret technologies developed by AC Kinetic Technologies within the Company's own products, both labeled under "Capstone" and under the Hoover^Ò HOME LED brand. The first of these products was introduced to the market in May 2015 at the International Hardware Show. Retailers have shown interest in certain programs which are currently being finalized.

Perceived or Essential Strengths. We have extensive experience in introducing new products to retail market channels and believe that provides us a competitive edge in our niche markets. In our early development, we sought to find niche product opportunities that may have been overlooked or underexploited by competitors, in order to win a profitable niche of the market share with minimal cost of entry. In May 2016, the Company plans to launch another extensive array of new products at the International Hardware Show. The new products will not only introduce additional functionality to existing categories of products that are meaningful to consumers but will also seek to revitalize categories that have grown stale due to minimal investment and creativity by competitors. The Company's desired product(s) characteristics are as follows:

·	Designed to make everyday tasks or usage simpler and more enjoyable for consumers;

·	While continuing to focus on increased profit margins, the products must be affordable to win at the point of sale and deliver increased revenues for retail partners;

·	The products must represent significant value when compared with items produced or marketed by competitive consumer product companies; and

·	Wherever feasible, the products must be unique to the market whether this be accomplished though design techniques, added functionality or some proprietary innovation.

With respect to our goal of sustained profitability, our challenge has been and remains to achieve greater profit margins from our product lines by either innovative product that induce consumers to pay a higher purchase price or increased efficiencies in producing and selling products.

Due to the extensive, modern manufacturing, design and engineering capabilities in China, and the lower unit costs in China, we believe that it is more economical and efficient to continue to manufacture certain products in China and have them shipped to the United States rather than to have such products produced in North America. While this resource is available to and used by large numbers of U.S. companies, including our competitors, we believe this Chinese manufacturing resource gives us the level of production cost and quality that allows us to be competitive with larger competitors in the United States. However, as design technologies can influence the degree of hand labor in building its future products, the Company expects the advantages it has realized by manufacturing solely in China to be challenged. In these cases, the Company will evaluate production opportunities in the United States.

The Company began in 2015 to utilize U.S. based industrial design support to augment the CIHK's Hong Kong based design team, and to isolate and protect some of the Company's latest intellectual property or "IP". The Company further expanded CIHK's operations in Hong Kong in 2014, with additional personnel experienced in engineering and design, product development, international logistics and quality control. These associates work with our OEM Chinese factories to develop and prototype new product concepts and to ensure products meet Consumer Product Regulations and rigorous Quality Control standards. All products are tested before and during production by Company personnel. This team also provides extensive product development, quality control and logistics support to our factory partners to ensure on time shipments. The Company initiated its expansion in Hong Kong in 2013 as product line extensions and increased number of factories utilized became factors. In anticipation of the Company's growth we have continued our investment to ensure overseas factory performance meets stringent tolerances to maintain our competitiveness and operational excellence.

We have expanded our international sales primarily by leveraging our relationships with our existing global retailers and by strengthening our international product offerings. With our Hong Kong office in place, they will assist us in placing more products into foreign market channels. In 2015 we surpassed our initial expansion goal with product sales in Australia, Canada, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and the United Kingdom. International sales represented 7% of total net revenue with 93% of net revenue originating from the United States.

Any expansion into international markets will require a sustained product development and marketing-sales efforts, which in turn will require ongoing investment of resources and funding. Our ability to penetrate new markets will be dependent in part on adequate, affordable funding or available cash flow from operations. The lack of such money will hamper our ability to penetrate and maintain or grow market share in new markets.

Products and Customers

The Company has earned the recognition associated with being an innovative company as evidenced by the Company being invited to more retail buying reviews than earlier years when we were more focused on proving our ability to perform in the big box retail brick-and-mortar environment while supplying a short line of products. We are now determined to expand our product positioning through the introduction of many more indoor and new outdoor lighting programs both under the "Capstone" brand and the Hoover^® Home LED brand. We will also be expanding hardwired solid state products to our programs in addition to the existing battery and induction powered product lines, through the expansion of bath vanity fixtures. Hoover^®is a registered trademark of Techtronic Floor Care Technology Limited.

Since inception, we have focused on establishing and growing relationships with numerous leading international, national and regional retailers including but not limited to: Costco Wholesale, Home Depot, Lowes, Office Depot, Sam's Club, The Container Store, Wal-Mart, Canadian Tire and Amazon. These distribution channels may sell our products through the Internet as well as through retail storefronts and catalogs/mail order. Our experience in management, operations, and the export business has enabled us to develop the scale, manufacturing efficiencies, and design expertise that serves as the foundation for us to aggressively pursue niche product opportunities in our largest consumer markets and growing international market opportunities. While we have traditionally generated the majority of our sales in the domestic U.S. market, urbanization, rising family incomes and increased living standards abroad have spurred a perceived demand for small consumer appliances internationally. In order to capture this market opportunity, we introduced the Capstone brands to markets outside the U.S. including Central and South America, Taiwan, South Korea, Australia, Japan United Kingdom and Canada. This has been a very successful introduction with International sales representing 7% of revenue in 2015 and 50% of revenue in the quarter ended March 31, 2016.

Based on our experience in the industry, our Chinese contract manufacturing resources and focus on well designed, practical products, we believe CAPC is well positioned to become a leading manufacturer in the rapidly growing LED home lighting and security lighting segments. Our efforts to achieve such a goal are ongoing. Sluggish economic growth in North America in past two years and the global angst caused by a decline in the rate of Chinese economic growth in the past year are factors that hinder expansion in the consumer goods market. We believe we will maintain our revenue growth because of our ability to deliver unique products on time, the quality reputation of our products, our business relationships with our retailers and our aggressive product expansion strategies currently in place. Such continued progress depends on a number of assumptions and factors, including ones mentioned in "Risk Factors" below. Critical to growth are economic conditions in our markets that foster greater consumer spending as well as success in our initiatives to distinguish our brands from competitors by design, quality, and scope of functions and new technology or features. Our ability to fund the pursuit of our goals remains a constant, significant factor.

With our new branded lighting categories, Capstone has a comprehensive product offering for our niche in the industry. We believe that we will provide retailers with a broad and diversified portfolio of consumer products across numerous product categories, which will add diversity to our revenues and cash flows. Within these categories, we will service the needs of a wide range of consumers by providing products to satisfy their different interests, preferences and budgets.

We believe our ability to serve retailers with a broad array of branded products and quickly introduce new products will continue to allow us to further penetrate our existing customer bases, while also attracting new customers. Our primary, perceived challenge is creating sustained consumer demand for our products in a growing number of markets and attaining sustained profitability, which challenge is complicated by the cost of new product development and costs of penetrating new markets.

Sales and Marketing

CAPC's products are marketed primarily through a direct independent sales force, distributors and wholesalers. The sales force markets our products through numerous retail locations worldwide, including mass merchandisers, warehouse clubs, food, drug and convenience stores, department stores and hardware centers. We actively promote our products to retailers and distributors at North American trade shows, but rely on the retail sales channels to advertise our products directly to the end consumer. Domestically and internationally, the sales teams market our full portfolio of product offerings. All sales activities at major account levels involve direct executive management participation. The Company will also be targeting direct to retail clients through CIHK for products that fall outside Capstone's branded categories but are deemed innovative and preferably exclusive to CIHK. This should allow for quicker revenue expansion as time consuming product and brand development efforts are the responsibility of the retailer.

We depend on e-commerce efforts of Amazon and our retail customers in lieu of pursuing our own aggressive in-house e-commerce effort. We believe this reliance on Amazon and retail customer e-commerce is the most efficient and effective approach for the Company in e-commerce.

We maintain a Facebook website at https://www.facebook.com/powerfailuresolutions/ and our sales staff may use Social Media from time to time to promote our products and brands. We have not developed a comprehensive Social Media campaign based on third party sponsors or promoters.

Competitive Conditions

We believe that the following competitive strengths have and will continue to serve as a foundation for our business strategy:

We believe that the specialized nature of our existing niche categories and the market share that it has provided us will allow us to introduce and launch our new expanded LED Home Lighting programs.

We believe our licensed brand is a recognized domestic brand that will assist our initiatives for innovative new LED products. Overall, we believe this brand recognition and consumer awareness, coupled with the quality of our products, will help promote significant customer loyalty for the innovative LED products that we will be launching. We will be providing retailers with a broad and diversified portfolio of consumer LED products across numerous product categories, which should add diversity to our revenues and cash flows. Within these categories, we intend to service the needs of a wide range of consumers by providing products to satisfy their different interests, preferences and budgets.

Working Capital Requirements

The Company has reaffirmed its decision to extend its business model to expand distribution so that products can be offered from our Anaheim, California warehouse for U.S. domestic shipments to such noted retailers as Home Depot, Office Depot, True Value and Wal-Mart for non-seasonal periods. This enables retailers to stock our products daily and replenish inventory based on rates of sale in their stores. The Company may require additional working capital to fund the cost of new product molds, product testing and certifications, package design work, expansion of the sales support team in the U.S. and further expansion of the design and engineering capabilities in our Hong Kong office.

As required, additional funding options will be considered to ensure that product launches are never held back as a result of funding shortfalls. Certain members of Company's management and Board of Directors have supplemented the cash flow needs as required through short term loans. Access to affordable, timely funding could be critical to our ability to compete and expand our market share. Our liquidity and cash requirements are discussed more fully in Part II, Item 6, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Operations below.

The low market price of our Common Stock hinders our ability to access capital markets, but the enhancement of our Common Stock's market price requires, in our opinion, sustained profitability coupled with growth. Sustain profitability and growth is deemed to be required to attract market maker and institutional support for our Common Stock.

Competitive Conditions

The consumer products and small electronics businesses are highly competitive, both in the United States and on a global basis, as large manufacturers with global operations compete for consumer acceptance and, increasingly, limited retail shelf space. Competition is influenced by brand perceptions, product performance and value perception, customer service and price. Our principal lighting competitors in the U.S. are Jasco, Energizer and Sylvania. We believe private-label sales by large retailers has some impact on the market in some parts of the world as many national retailers such as Target, Wal-Mart, Home Depot, and Costco offer lighting as part of their private branded product lines. Many of competitors have substantially greater resources and capabilities, including greater brand recognition, research and development budgets and broader geographical market reach. Competitors with greater resources could undermine our expansion efforts by marketing campaigns targeting our expansion efforts or price competition.

With trends and technology continually changing, CAPC will continue to endeavor to invest and rapidly develop new products that are competitively priced with consumer centric features and benefits easily articulated to influence point of sale decision making. Success in the markets we serve depends upon product innovation, pricing, retailer support, responsiveness, and cost management. We continue to invest in developing the technologies and design critical to competing in our markets as evidenced by our investment in AC Kinetic Technologies. Our ability to invest is limited by operational cash flow and funding from third parties, including members of management and the Board of Directors.

Raw Materials

The principal raw materials used by the Company are sourced in China, as we manufacture our products exclusively through contract manufacturers in the region. Raw materials used in manufacturing include plastic resin, copper, led bulbs, batteries, and corrugated paper. Prices of materials have remained lower and competitive in the last year as a result of lower oil prices and the strengthening U.S. dollar. CAPC believes that adequate supplies of raw materials required for its operations are available at the present time. CAPC, cannot predict the future availability or prices of such materials. These raw materials are generally available from a number of different sources, and the prices of those raw materials are susceptible to currency fluctuations and price fluctuations due to transportation, government regulations, price controls, economic climate, or other unforeseen circumstances. In the past, CAPC has not experienced any significant interruption in availability of raw materials. We believe we have extensive experience in manufacturing and have taken positions to assure supply and to protect margins on anticipated sales volume. Our Hong Kong office is responsible for developing and sourcing finished products from Asia in order to grow and diversify our product portfolio. Quality testing for these products is performed both by our Hong Kong office and by our globally recognized third party quality testing laboratories.

Section 1502 of Title XV of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act requires SEC-reporting companies to disclose annually whether any conflict minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of a product. Based on our inquiries to our manufacturers, we do not believe as of the date of such inquiries that any conflict minerals are used in making our products.

Seasonality

Sales for household products and electronics are seasonally influenced, with increased purchases by consumers during the key holiday winter season of the fourth fiscal quarter, which requires increases in retailer inventories during the third fiscal quarter. In addition, natural disasters such as hurricanes and tornadoes can create conditions that drive increased needs for portable power and spike power failure light sales. Many retailers now recognize a storm preparedness period and the Company believes that it is well positioned to gain market share in these sales periods. The Company's "Power Failure Solutions" products support this growing awareness. As is true for our lighting products, the Power Failure Solutions faces competition from domestic and international companies, which includes competitors with greater resources, market share and brand recognition.

Based on industry experience, management expects that the new LED Home Lighting product offerings will not be as influenced by seasonal factors and will provide a more balanced revenue stream during the year once programs are executed fully at retail.

Intellectual Property

CAPC subsidiary, CAPI, owns a number of U.S. trademarks and patents which CAPC considers of substantial importance and which are used individually or in conjunction with other CAPC trademarks and patents. These include the following trademarks: Timely Reader, Pathway Lights, Timely Reader Book lights with Timer and Auto Shut Off and 10 LED - Eco-i-Lite Power Failure Light, 5 LED - Eco-i-Lite Power Failure Light, 3 LED - Eco-i-Lite Power Failure Light, 3 LED Slim line Eco-i-Lite Power Failure Light, LED Induction Charged Headlight. We also have a number of patents pending on our Security Motion Activated Lights and Bathroom Vanity Light. CAPC periodically prepares patent and trademark applications for filing in the United States and China. CAPC will also pursue foreign patent protection in foreign countries if deemed necessary. CAPC's ability to compete effectively in the power failure, portable lighting, and LED Home Lighting categories depends in part, on its ability to maintain the proprietary nature of its technology and manufacturing processes through a combination of patent and trade secret protection, non-disclosure agreements, licensing, and cross-licensing agreements. CAPC owns a number of patents, trademarks, trademark and patent applications and other technology which CAPC believes are significant to its business. These relate primarily to lighting device improvements and manufacturing processes.

Value of Patents. The actual protection afforded by a patent, which can vary from country to country, depends upon the type of patent, the scope of its coverage and the availability of legal remedies in the country. Issued patents or patents based on pending patent applications or any future patent applications may not exclude competitors or may not provide a competitive advantage to us. In addition, patents issued or licensed to us may not be held valid if subsequently challenged and others may claim rights in or ownership of such patents. The validity and breadth of claims in technology patents involve complex legal and factual questions and, therefore, the extent of their enforceability and protection is highly uncertain.

Reverse engineering, unauthorized copying or other misappropriation of our technologies could enable third parties to benefit from our technologies without paying us. We cannot assure shareholders that our competitors have not developed or will not develop similar products, will not duplicate our products, or will not design around any patents issued to or licensed by us. We will assess any loss of these rights and determine whether to litigate to protect our intellectual property rights on a case by case basis.

We rely on trademark, trade secret, patent, and copyright laws to protect our intellectual property rights. We cannot be sure that these intellectual property rights will be effectively utilized or, if necessary, successfully asserted. There is a risk that we will not be able to obtain and perfect our own intellectual property rights, or, where appropriate, license intellectual property rights from others to support new product introductions. There can be no assurance that we can acquire licenses under patents belonging to others for technology potentially useful or necessary to us and there can be no assurance that such licenses will be available to us, if at all, on terms acceptable to us. Moreover, there can be no assurance that any patent issued to or licensed by us will not be infringed or circumvented by others, or will not be successfully challenged by others in lawsuits. We do not have a reserve for litigation costs associated with intellectual property matters.

Distribution and Fulfillment

Since January 2015, the Company transferred its U.S. domestic warehousing and distribution operation to a third party warehousing facility situated in Anaheim, California. The warehouse distributor provides full inventory storage, packaging and logistics services including direct to store and direct to consumer shipping capabilities that electronically interface to our existing operations software. The Company provides full ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), Inventory Control and Warehouse Management Systems. These fulfillment services can be expanded to the east coast in Charleston, South Carolina, if we need to establish an east coast distribution point. This relationship will provide, if fully utilized, a major expansion of our U.S. distribution capabilities.

Research, Product Development, and Manufacturing Activities

Our research and development department based in Hong Kong designs and engineers many of our products, with collaboration from our third party manufacturing partners. They also establish strict engineering specifications and product testing protocols for our contract manufacturers' factories and ensure the factories adhere to all Chinese Labor and Social Compliance Laws. Under the current political regime in China, sudden and unexpected changes in such laws are possible.

Our research and development team ensures our proprietary manufacturing expertise by maintaining control over all outsourced production and critical production molds. In order to ensure the quality and consistency of our products manufactured in Asia, we use globally recognized certified testing laboratories such as United Laboratories (UL) or Intertek (ETL) to ensure all products are designed and tested to adhere to each countries individual regulatory standards. We also employ quality control inspectors who examine and test products to our specification before shipments are approved. Our Hong Kong office capabilities have now been expanded to include product development, project management, sourcing management, supply chain logistics, factory compliance auditing, and quality enforcement for all supplier factories located in Hong Kong and mainland China.

We will continue to invest in this area as we expand the number of products being developed and as we move into more technical and innovative product categories. These costs are expensed when incurred and are included in the operating expenses.

Critical Accounting Policies

We believe that there have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2016 as compared to those we disclosed in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2015.

CONSOLIDATED OVERVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Revenue, net

For the 3 months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, total net sales were approximately $2,078,200 and $713,500, respectively, a $1,364,700 or 191% increase from the previous year.

The Company continued to have strong International sales to various overseas markets during the period. International sales were approximately $1,050,000 or 50.5% of total revenue for the quarter.

Cost of Sales

For the 3 months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, cost of sales were approximately $1,464,700 and $406,200, respectively, an increase of $1,058,500 or 260% from the previous year. Cost of sales increased as a result of the increased sales volume, however overall product costs continue to remain stable during the period.

Gross Profit

For the 3 months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, gross profit was approximately $613,600 and $307,400 respectively, an increase of $306,200 or 99.6 % higher than the same period in 2015. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 29.5% in the three-month period compared to 43.1 % in the same quarter in 2015. During the period ending March 31, 2015, the Company determined that $181,978 of previously accrued promotional allowances were no longer required. The reduction of promotional allowances was included in revenue for the period ended March 31, 2015 and also had the impact of increasing gross profit in that period.

Operating Expenses

For the 3 months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, total operating expenses were approximately $654,700 and $661,000 respectively, a reduction of $6,300 or 1% as compared to same period in 2015.

The following is a summary of the major expense variances by category.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

For the 3 months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, sales and marketing expenses were approximately $63,000 and $36,700 respectively, an increase of $26,300 or 71.7%. During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, we distributed royalty payments of $31,000 to Hoover Inc. that we did not incur in the same period last year.

Compensation Expense

For the 3 months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, compensation expense was approximately $308,500 and $361,100 respectively, a reduction of $52,600 or 14.6 %.

Overall compensation expense has been reduced as a result of the reduction of personnel, however, consulting professional fees have increased as we replaced a sales position with a sales consultant.

Professional Fees

For the 3 months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, professional expenses were approximately $104,300 and $96,200 respectively, an increase of $8,100 or 8.4%. The higher expense is partly the result of the Company engaging the services of a sales consultant to support the U.S. office marketing effort.

Product Development Expenses

For the 3 months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, product development expenses were approximately $36,300 and $45,700, respectively, a reduction of $9,400 or 20.6%. This expense reduction is the result of our Hong Kong office being able to negotiate favorable start up terms for new items with some of our factory partners.

Other General and Administrative

For the 3 months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, other general and administrative expenses were approximately $142,800 and $121,400 respectively, an increase of $21,400 or 17.6%. The expense increase is mainly the result of increased Sterling Bank fees associated with the higher revenue during the period.

Net Operating Loss

For the 3 months ended March 31, 2016 the operating loss was approximately $(41,200) compared to a $(353,600) net operating loss in 2015. This is an improved performance of $312,400 over the same period 2015.

Interest Expense

For the 3 months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, interest expense was approximately $57,700 and $37,200, respectively, for an increase of $ 20,500 or 55.1% as compared to same period in 2015.

The higher interest expense in the first quarter ended March 31, 2016 is the result of the higher bank funding required to support the large Accounts Receivable balance carried over from the fourth quarter 2015, combined with an increase in Accounts Receivable in the first quarter 2016 compared to 2015.

Net Loss

For the 3 months ended March 31, 2016, the Company had a net loss of approximately $(98,900) as compared to a net loss of $(390,800) in the same period last year.

The overall net improvement of $291,900 in our typically weakest quarter was the result of improved revenue, supported by strong International sales. In the 2016 quarter we incurred the added expense of the Hoover royalty payments and increased sales commissions that we didn't have in the same quarter 2015, however total expenses came in below last year's level as a result of our continuing expense reduction program.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have material off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material future effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

	For the Three Months Ended
(In thousands)	March 31, 2016			March 31, 2015
(In thousands)
Net cash provided by (used in):
Operating Activities	$	1,773		$	278
Investing Activities	$	(5	)	$	(2	)
Financing Activities	$	(1,670	)	$	(442	)

The Company's borrowing capacity with Sterling National Bank, funding support from Directors and cash flow from operations provide the Company with the financial resources needed to run operations and reinvest in our business.

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities was approximately $1.773 million in the 3 months ended March 31, 2016 compared with approximately $278,000 provided by operating activities in 2015. During the quarter the Company collected $3.8 million of Accounts Receivable and used approximately $1.9 million in reducing accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company's cash flow from operations are primarily dependent on our net income adjusted for non-cash expenses and the timing of collections of receivables, level of inventory and payments to suppliers. Sales are influenced significantly by the timing and launch of new products into the marketplace. With the establishment of our Hong Kong operation we have built an operational structure that, through relationships with factory-suppliers combined with our internal expertise, can develop and release quality products to market substantially quicker than we have been able to accomplish in previous years. Furthermore, in the second quarter of 2016, we negotiated with our largest vendor to receive a credit of approximately $479,000 to cover defective product sales from 2015 and promotional efforts for 2016. The credit will be applied to vendor invoices in the second and third quarters of 2016.

Investing Activities

Cash used for investing activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 was approximately $(4,700) compared to $(2,200) in 2015. The Company will continue to invest in new product molds and tooling. With the product expansion into new LED home lighting categories, the Company's future capital requirements will increase. Our Hong Kong management team will be able to negotiate favorable payment terms with factories that will reduce the amounts of upfront cash we will need to have available when initiating a new project. Management believes that our cash flow from operations and additional borrowing will provide for these necessary capital expenditures.

Financing Activities

Our ability to maintain sufficient liquidity is highly dependent upon achieving expected operating results. Failure to achieve expected operating results could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, our ability to obtain financing, and our operations in the future. Net cash used in financing activities for the period ended March 31, 2016 was approximately $(1.670) million compared to $(442,000) used in 2015. With the collection of the Accounts Receivable balances in the quarter the Company paid down outstanding loans to the Sterling National Bank and other Note Holders. The Company also paid off an old related party loan with interest totaling $109,000 and opened a new note for $360,000 as partial funding for the large order back log on hand.

At March 31, 2016, the Company was in compliance with all agreements pursuant to existing credit facilities. Management believes that our cash flow from operations, continued support from Sterling National Bank and support of our Directors will provide sufficient financial resources for the Company during 2016.

Directors and Officers Insurance: The Company currently operates with Directors and Officers insurance and the Company believes the coverage is adequate to cover likely liabilities under such a policy.

Impact of Inflation: The Company's major expense has been the cost of selling and marketing product lines to customers in North America. That effort involves mostly sales staff traveling to make direct marketing and sales pitches to customers and potential customers, trade shows around North America and visiting China to maintain and seek to expand distribution and manufacturing relationships and channels. With the current reduced price of world oil, although labor costs are continuing to increase, the Company expects costs to remain stable with the Chinese manufacturers. The Company generally has been able to reduce cost increases by negotiating volume purchases or re-engineering products. With our Hong Kong office firmly established, the Company expects that prices will remain steady through 2016.

Country Risks - Changes in foreign, cultural, political and financial market conditions could impair the Company's international manufacturing operations and financial performance.

The Company's manufacturing is currently conducted in China. Consequently, the Company is subject to a number of significant risks associated with manufacturing in China, including:

·	The possibility of expropriation, confiscatory taxation or price controls;

·	Adverse changes in local investment or exchange control regulations;

·	Political or economic instability, government nationalization of business or industries, government corruption, and civil unrest;

·	Legal and regulatory constraints;

·	Tariffs and other trade barriers, including trade disputes between the U.S. and China; and

·	Difficulty in enforcing contractual and intellectual property rights.

Currency: Currency fluctuations may significantly increase our expenses and affect the results of operations, especially where the currency is subject to intense political and other outside pressures.

Interest Rate Risk: The Company does not have significant interest rate risk during the period ended March 31, 2016.

Credit Risk: The Company has not experienced significant credit risk, as most of our customers are long-term customers with superior payment records. Our managers monitor our receivables regularly and our Direct Import Programs are shipped to only the most financially stable customers or advance payments before shipment are required for those accounts less financially secure.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. The Company maintains "disclosure controls and procedures," as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and we necessarily are required to apply our judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures.

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2015 and concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act and as of March 31 , 2016, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Commission regulations and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Item 4(T). Controls and Procedures.

Changes in internal controls: There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the three months covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

The certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer attached as Exhibits 31 and 32 and to this Report include information concerning our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. Such certifications should be read in conjunction with the information contained in Item 4, including the information incorporated by reference to our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, for a more complete understanding of the matters covered by such certifications.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

The Company is not a party to any material pending or threatened legal proceedings and, to the best our knowledge, no such action by or against us has been threatened. From time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business. Although occasional adverse decisions or settlements may occur in such routine lawsuits, we believe that the final disposition of such routine lawsuits will not have material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or status as a going concern.

Other Legal Matters. To the best of our knowledge, none of our Directors, officers or owners of record of more than five percent (5%) of the securities of the Company, or any associate of any such director, officer or security holder is a party adverse to us or has a material interest adverse to us in reference to pending litigation.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

In addition to risk factors set forth herein and in the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, and other Commission filings, the following risk factors should be considered in any evaluation of the Company.

Investment in new business strategies and marketing and sales strategies could present risks not originally contemplated. The Company has invested, and in the future may invest, in new product lines and technologies, attempts to expand our markets, business strategies or marketing and sales strategies. Such endeavors may involve significant risks and uncertainties, including insufficient revenue to offset liabilities assumed and expenses associated with the strategy, inadequate return of capital, and unidentified issues not discovered in the Company's evaluation. These new strategies may be inherently risky and may not be successful. As a smaller reporting company, we are more vulnerable to the failure of business and marketing and sales strategies than larger competitors.

The Company relies on equity or debt funding from members of management or outside investors from time to time to meet working capital needs. The Company receives equity or debt funding from time to time from members of management or outside investors to fund working capital needs. Such funding may not always be available or adequate to meet such essential needs. The lack of primary market makers and institutional investors for our publicly traded Common Stock makes it difficult for the Company's common stock to appreciate in value, which, in turn, makes it difficult for the Company to raise money from outside investors or in the public markets. We believe that we need to develop new products or new product lines with higher profit margins to attain better financial results and, through any improved financial results, to possibly attract greater support for our Common Stock in the public markets. We believe that greater market support for our Common Stock would assist in any efforts to raise working capital by the Company. We may be unable to develop higher profit margin products or achieve or sustain profitability and that failure would probably result in the aforementioned weakness in the public market for our Common Stock.

The Company competes against larger competitors with greater resources and market share and recognition. The Company is relatively small in comparison to larger competitors with superior financial and technical resources and greater market recognition and market share in certain product categories. This discrepancy in resources and market share makes it difficult for our company to attain a larger market share in certain regions or in certain product categories. We may also be vulnerable to targeted marketing efforts by larger competitors to reduce or eliminate our market share in one or more markets or product lines.

Global Economic Fragility – The ongoing turmoil in the global economy, especially in the U.S., may have an impact on our business and our financial condition, and we may face challenges if economic conditions do not improve. These economic conditions impact levels of consumer spending, which have deteriorated and may remain depressed for the foreseeable future. If demand for our products fluctuates as a result of these economic conditions or otherwise, our revenue and gross margin could be harmed. Further, since our products are made in China, we are vulnerable to disruptions in processing of shipments of products through ports or in general to trade disputes between the U.S. and China.

Liquidity - The Company realized a net loss of $(98,929) for the three months ended March 31, 2016 as compared to a net loss of $(390,772) in the same period 2015. Our ability to maintain sufficient liquidity is highly dependent upon achieving expected operating results. Failure to achieve expected operating results could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, our ability to obtain financing and our operations in the future. The Company's liquidity is expected to be sufficient through 2016, resulting from the combination of our existing cash position, improved operational cash flow as a result of improvements to our operating results, the Company's borrowing capacity with Sterling National Bank and as needed, funding support from Company Directors (see Note 4 to the financial statements contained in this report).

Loss of any of our principal customers could significantly decrease our sales and profitability. The Company supplies product to the most recognized big box retailers across America and the highest concentration of its business is in the flourishing warehouse club channel. The Company's sales are made pursuant to purchase orders and we do not have supply agreements or guarantees of minimum purchases from them. As a result, these customers may cancel their purchase orders or reschedule or decrease their level of purchases from us at any time. Any loss or substantial decrease in the volume of purchases by any of the Company's top customers would harm the Company's sales and profitability.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

There were no unregistered issuances of Company securities in the quarter ending March 31, 2016.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities

None.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to Vote of Security Holders

None.
