CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements discuss matters that are not historical facts. Because they discuss future events or conditions, forward-looking statements may include words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “intend,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “may,” “seek,” “plan,” “might,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “predict,” “project,” “forecast,” “potential,” “continue” negatives thereof or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, are based on various underlying assumptions and current expectations about the future and are not guarantees. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievement to be materially different from the results of operations or plans expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

 

We cannot predict all of the risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, such information should not be regarded as representations that the results or conditions described in such statements or that our objectives and plans will be achieved and we do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any of these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are found at various places throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and include information concerning possible or assumed future results of our operations, including statements about potential sales and revenues; acquisition or merger targets; business strategies; future cash flows; financing plans; plans and objectives of management; any other statements regarding future acquisitions, future cash needs, future operations, business plans and future financial results, and any other statements that are not historical facts.

 

These forward-looking statements represent our intentions, plans, expectations, assumptions and beliefs about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors. Many of those factors are outside of our control and could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by those forward-looking statements. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events described in the forward-looking statements might not occur or might occur to a different extent or at a different time than we have described. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning other matters addressed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Except to the extent required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, a change in events, conditions, circumstances or assumptions underlying such statements, or otherwise.

Cool Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiary

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1 – Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Description of Business

 

Cool Technologies, Inc. and subsidiary, (“the Company” or “Cool Technologies” or “CoolTech”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada in July 2002. In April 2014, CoolTech formed Ultimate Power Truck, LLC (“Ultimate Power Truck” or “UPT”), of which the Company owns 95% and a shareholder of Cool Technologies owns 5%. Cool Technologies was formerly known as Bibb Corporation, as Z3 Enterprises, and as HPEV, Inc. On August 20, 2015, the Company changed its name to Cool Technologies, Inc.

 

CoolTech has developed and intends to commercialize heat dispersion technologies in various product platforms. The Company has also developed and is commercializing a mobile power generation system that enables work trucks retrofitted with the system to generate electric power. In preparation, CoolTech has applied for trademarks for one of its technologies and its acronym. Cool Technologies currently owns one trademark: TEHPC. The Company believes that its proprietary technologies, including the patent portfolio and trade secrets, can help increase the efficiency and positively affect manufacturing cost structure in several large industries beginning with motors/generators and fleet vehicles. The markets for products utilizing the technology include consumer, industrial and military markets, both in the U.S. and worldwide.

 

The Company’s technologies are divided into two distinct but complementary categories: a) mobile power generation and b) heat dispersion technology. As of March 31, 2019, CoolTech has seven US patents, one granted Mexican patent, one allowed Canadian patent, three pending applications (1 in Canada, 1 in Brazil, 1 in US) and one US filed provisional application pending in the area of composite heat structures, motors, and related structures, heat pipe architecture, applications (commonly referred to as “thermal” or “heat dispersion technology”) and a parallel vehicle power platform. Cool Technologies also has Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”) applications filed for a heat pipe cooled brake system, a parallel power input gearing system (PPIG) and radial vent thermal technology.

 

The Company intends to sell a mobile electric power system powered by the Company’s proprietary gearing system to commercial vehicle and fleet owners. It intends to commercialize its patents by licensing its thermal technologies and applications to electric motor, pump and vehicle component manufacturers. It may license its mobile electric power system as well.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2019, has been derived from unaudited financial statements. They include the accounts of Cool Technologies, Inc. and Ultimate Power Truck, LLC. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited financial statements and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial statements. In the opinion of management, such unaudited information includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of this interim information. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Noncontrolling interest represents the 5% third-party interest in UPT. There are no restrictions on the transfer of funds or net assets from UPT to Cool Technologies.

 

Operating results and cash flows for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that can be expected for the entire year. The information included in this report should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. CoolTech has incurred net losses of $50,697,380 since inception and has not fully commenced operations, raising substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management believes that the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate revenue, achieve profitable operations and repay obligations when they come due and raising additional capital. There cannot be any assurance that the Company will ever generate revenue or even if it does generate revenue that it will achieve profitable operations. Furthermore, no assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in case of equity financing.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

 

Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, Accounting Standards Update, or ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)”– In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, which will require lessees to recognize almost all leases on their balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Classification will be based on criteria that are largely similar to those applied in current lease accounting, but without explicit bright lines. Lessor accounting is similar to the current model, but updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 18, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019. Adopting this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or financial statement disclosures.

 

FASB ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” or ASU 2014-09 - In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements of Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, Topic 605 “Revenue Recognition.” ASU 2014-09 requires revenue recognition to depict the transfer of 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. The new revenue recognition model requires identifying the contract, identifying the performance obligations, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to performance obligations and recognizing the revenue upon satisfaction of the performance obligations. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and change in judgments, and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 can be applied either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the update recognized at the date of the initial application along with additional disclosures. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with the option to adopt as early as December 15, 2016. The Company adopted the new revenue guidance effective January 1, 2018. As the Company has not previously generated any revenues, there was no material impact to the Company’s financial statements or financial statement disclosures.

 

Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted

 

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, when adopted, will have a material effect on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Note 2 – Customer deposits – Related party

 

These represent advance payments of $400,000 received on orders that have not yet been fulfilled, with companies controlled by the individual who is the 5% owner of UPT and a shareholder of Cool Technologies.

Note 5 -- Commitments and Contingencies

  

On September 20, 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved an offer to settle the enforcement proceedings against the Company pursuant to Section 21C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These proceedings arose out of the violation of the Regulation S-X requirement that interim financial statements filed as part of a Form 10-Q be reviewed by an independent public accounting firm prior to filing.

 

On three occasions, specifically, May 20, 2013, August 19, 2013 and August 22, 2016, Cool Technologies filed Form 10-Qs that contained financial statements that were not reviewed by an independent public accounting firm. In two cases, the Company properly disclosed that the 10Q’s were “unaudited and unreviewed” as set forth by the guidance in the Division of Corporation Finance Financial Reporting Manual. In each case, the Company subsequently filed a restated and amended Form 10-Q/A that complied with the Interim Review Requirement. In no instance were the filings ever subjected to audit challenge. Pursuant to the enforcement proceeding instituted by the SEC, the Company settled for a fine of $75,000 and agreed to cease and desist from any future violations of Sections 13(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13a-13 thereunder, and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X.

 

From time to time, the Company may be a party to other legal proceedings. Management currently believes that the ultimate resolution of these other matters, if any, and after consideration of amounts accrued, will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flow.

 

Note 6 – Equity

 

Preferred Stock

 

Cool Technologies has 15,000,000 preferred shares authorized and 3 Series A and 2,727,270 Series B preferred shares issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2019.

 

On August 12, 2016, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with four accredited investors pursuant to which it sold 3,636,360 shares of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. Each share of the preferred stock is convertible into one share of the Company’s common stock. The conversion price of the preferred stock is equal to the $0.055.

 

In addition to the preferred stock, the Securities Purchase Agreement included warrants to purchase (i) 3,636,360 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.07 per share. The aggregate purchase price of the preferred stock and warrants was $200,000, of which $150,000 was paid in cash and $50,000 was paid in services.

 

The preferred stock has the same rights as if each share of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock were converted into one share of common stock. For so long as the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is issued and outstanding, the holders of such Series B Convertible Preferred Stock vote together as a single class with the holders of the common stock and the holders of any other class or series of shares entitled to vote with the common stock, with the holders of Series B Stock being entitled to 66 2/3% of the total votes on all such matters.

 

In the event of the death of a holder of the Class B Preferred Stock, or a liquidation, winding up or bankruptcy of a holder which is an entity, all voting rights of the Class B Preferred Stock shall cease.

 

The holder of any shares of Class B Preferred Stock have the right to convert their shares into common stock at any time, in a conversion ratio of one share of common stock for each share of Class B Preferred. If the Company’s common stock trades or is quoted at a price per share in excess of $2.25 for any twenty consecutive day trading period, the Class B Preferred Stock will automatically be convertible into the common stock of the Company in a conversion ratio of one share of common stock for each share of Class B Preferred.

  

 
16
 
Table of Contents

  

The holders of Class B Preferred Stock are not entitled to receive any distributions in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company.

 

The warrants cannot be exercised on a cashless basis.

   

Preferred stock issuable on the consolidated balance sheets represents preferred stock to be issued for either cash received or services performed. As of March 31, 2019 and 2018, the number of shares of preferred stock to be issued was 0 and the number of shares of Series B preferred stock was 2,727,270.

 

On January 25, 2019, Spirit Bear, Ltd. converted their remaining 17 shares of Series A preferred stock into 850,000 shares of common stock.

 

KHIC, Inc., a related party, holds the remaining 3 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”) is convertible into 50,000 shares of common stock. Each share of preferred stock has voting rights as if they were converted into 50,000 shares of common stock. The holders of each share of preferred stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the Available Funds and Assets (as defined in the “Certificate of Designation”), and prior and in preference to any payment or distribution (or any setting a part of any payment or distribution) of any Available Funds and Assets on any shares of common stock, an amount per preferred share equal to the Preferred Stock Liquidation Price ($2,500 per share).

 

Common Stock

  

Common stock issuable on the condensed consolidated balance sheet represents common stock to be issued for either cash received or services performed. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the number of shares of common stock to be issued was 2,144,697 and 1,144,697 shares, respectively.

 

Common stock warrants issued with the sale of common stock

 

When the Company sells shares of its common stock the buyer also typically receives fully-vested common stock warrants with a maximum contractual term of 3-5 years.

Note 8 – Net Loss per Share

 

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted net loss per share is computed similarly to basic loss per share, except that it includes the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities are exercised.

Note 9 – Subsequent Events

 

On April 11, 2019, Jatropha signed an addendum to update the terms and conditions originally set forth in the Agreement of Principal Terms dated November 7, 2017. In light of the higher electrical output and new options offered by the Company, Jatropha amended its purchase commitment to include 50 MG80 (80 kVA) Systems with mobile desalination units capable of producing 2500 gallons of fresh water per day, 100 MG125 (125 kVA) systems, 50 MG200 (200 kVA) Systems and 50 HydroQubes ( a hydrogen infusion system that improves fuel economy) composed of 2 cells. The addendum states that CoolTech shall start production and fulfillment of the orders no later than the 3rd Quarter of 2019.

 

On April 23, 2019, Cool Technologies issued 7,500,000 shares of common stock to Lucas Hoppel upon conversion of $93,750 on convertible debt of $396,550. On May 1, 2019, a fourth amendment was signed extending the maturity date until August 1, 2019. All other terms and conditions remained the same.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Overview

 

Cool Technologies, Inc. and subsidiary, (“the Company” or “Cool Technologies” or “CoolTech”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada in July 2002. In April 2014, CoolTech formed Ultimate Power Truck, LLC (“Ultimate Power Truck” or “UPT”), of which the Company owns 95% and a shareholder of Cool Technologies owns 5%. Cool Technologies was formerly known as Bibb Corporation, as Z3 Enterprises, and as HPEV, Inc. On August 20, 2015, the Company changed its name to Cool Technologies, Inc.

 

The Company’s technologies are divided into two distinct but complementary categories: mobile power generation and heat dispersion technology.

 

As of March 31, 2019, CoolTech has seven US patents, one granted Mexican patent, one allowed Canadian patent, three pending applications (1 in Canada, 1 in Brazil, 1 in US) and one US filed provisional application pending in the area oof composite heat structures, motors, and related structures, heat pipe architecture, applications (commonly referred to as “thermal” or “heat dispersion technology”) and a parallel vehicle power platform. Cool Technologies also has Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”) applications filed for a heat pipe cooled brake system, a parallel power input gearing system (PPIG) and radial vent thermal technology.

 

The Company has developed a mobile power generation system (MG) that enables work trucks to generate electric power by running an in-chassis generator. The MG is based on a proprietary gearing system that can be retrofit onto new and existing American trucks. CoolTech intends to sell the mobile electric power system to commercial vehicle and fleet owners. Sales are expected to occur through the direct efforts of the Company and through the efforts of its joint venture partners. It may also license the MG system commercial vehicle and fleet owners as well.

 

The markets the Company intends to target include consumer, industrial and military markets, both in the U.S. and worldwide.

 

When the generator is enhanced by Cool Tech’s thermal technology (See below) it should be able to output more power than any other generator of its size on the market.

 

CoolTech has also developed heat dispersion technologies based on proprietary composite heat structures and heat pipe architecture in various product platforms such as electric motors, pumps, turbines, bearings and vehicle components. In preparation, Cool Technologies currently received one trademark: TEHPC (an acronym for Totally Enclosed Heat Pipe Cooled).

 

Management believes that the technologies can help increase the efficiency and lifespan as well as help meet regulatory emissions standards for heat producing equipment and components. In addition, the simplicity of the heat pipe architecture as well as the fact that it provides effective new applications for existing manufacturing processes should enhance the cost structure in several large industries including motor/generator and engine manufacturing

 

 
21
 
Table of Contents

 

The Company intends to commercialize its patents by integrating the technology with Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) partners and by licensing its thermal technologies and applications to electric motor, generator, pump and vehicle component (brake, resistor, caliper) manufacturers.

 

The markets for products utilizing the technologies also include consumer, industrial and military markets, both in the U.S. and worldwide.

 

Cool Technologies has not generated any revenues to date. The Company generated its first Mobile Generation (MG) order during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 and received a partial deposit in advance of completing the sale. Subsequently, it received an order for 10 MG systems from Craftsmen Industries during the quarter ended June 30, 2017. In November 2017, the Company received a purchase commitment for 234 MG systems from the National Union of Producers of Jatropha in Mexico (Jatropha). That was followed by a purchase commitment for 24 to 50 MG units from the National Union of Producers in Mexico for the state of Veracruz in December 2017. On April 9, 2018, Jatropha executed a purchase order with the Company for 10 Ford F-350s with MG80 kVA systems installed.

 

The Company is working to turn the interest into orders by acquiring and retrofitting Class 3 to 7 trucks to address the specific needs of interested customers and by writing quotes as well as arranging additional demonstrations for target industries and decision-makers.

 

In addition, the system’s packaging has been simplified to speed and ease the conversion process. Current plans call for the initial up-fitting of trucks to occur in at least three locations, each in a different region of the country. Enabling conversions to occur in Mexico is also a possibility that’s being considered.

 

A review of a first run MG80 production vehicle was held at Craftsmen Industries in St. Louis on March 27, 2019 for an audience of farmers from Mexico who paid for their transportation costs to see the MG power equipment and learn about the water purification and HydroQube (hydrogen infusion) options. A second review occurred on May 13, 2019, before an audience of government officials, fruit growers and packers. All except two paid for their own transportation costs.

 

There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to generate new orders nor fulfill the existing ones nor address all the requirements of all the interested parties. Equally, management can not assure that they will be able to complete development of a 125 kVA system. CoolTech generally incur expenses to commercialize its products, which include costs for research and development, professional fees and general operations.

 

Recent Developments

 

Craftsmen Industries, Inc.

 

As a consequence of the first public demonstration of the MG 30 kilovolt amp (“kVA”) system at the North America International Auto Show in Detroit in January 2017, the Company entered into an agreement in principle, dated February 21, 2017, with Craftsmen Industries, Inc.(“Craftsmen’), a company engaged in the design, engineering and production of mobile marketing vehicles, experiential marketing platforms and industrial mobile solutions.

 

On April 25, 2017, CoolTech delivered to Craftsmen Industries, a Class III Vehicle (Ford F-350 dually) up-fitted with a production-ready MG 30 kVA (single phase/three phase) system.

 

Subsequently, Craftsmen invited the Company to demonstrate its mobile generation technology and the potential benefits for Craftsmen products at Craftsmen’s 35th Anniversary Party on April 27, 2017. Over 100 current and prospective Craftsmen customers were in the audience for the demonstrations.

 

On June 9, 2017, the Company received a purchase order for 10 MG systems from Craftsmen, each in the amount of $29,500 with 50% paid as a down payment at the time of customer acceptance.

 

Furthermore, Craftsmen has agreed to produce the MG systems for the Company’s initial orders from Jatropha and Veracruz (See below). Since October 2018, CoolTech has been ordering components for the initial pilot production run which will be completed in the second quarter of 2019. In parallel, purchase orders will be placed for components to support increased production in the months that follow.

In November 2017, the Company received a purchase commitment for 234 MG systems from the National Union of Producers of Jatropha in Mexico (Jatropha).

 

Jatropha has established a center for processing oil from Jatropha seeds for biofuel production. Through their union of producers, Jatropha plans to introduce the MG and promote the product to their supplier network.

 

The purchase commitment stipulates that CoolTech will furnish Jatropha with an MG80 retro-fitted onto a Ford F-350 truck within 60 business days of the signed of the agreement. To ensure the system is optimized to meet Jatropha’s needs, CoolTech set the terms of the agreement to allow both teams to gather data and provide performance feedback another 30 to 60 days. Upon completion of this period, Jatropha will release the balance of the order for 233 units. Payment terms require 50% down and 50% at time of shipment, FOB (Freight on Board) from Cool Technologies’ dock.

 

On February 6, 2018, Jatropha signed an agreement to amend their previous purchase agreement. It eliminates the 60 business day deadline for the truck to be shipped to Mexico. Under the new agreement, representatives from Jatropha will come to Colorado for an inspection and live performance demonstration. If approved, the generator-equipped trucks will go into production as specified in the original purchase agreement.

 

A representative of the National Union of Jatropha Producers approved the generator-equipped truck. It will go into production as the Company and Jatropha secure final funding.

 

On April 11, 2019, Jatropha signed an addendum to update the terms and conditions originally set forth in the Agreement of Principal Terms dated November 7, 2017. In light of the higher electrical output and new options offered by the Company, Jatropha amended its purchase commitment to include 50 MG80 (80 kVA) Systems with mobile desalination units capable of producing 2500 gallons of fresh water per day, 100 MG125 (125 kVA) systems, 50 MG200 (200 kVA) Systems and 50 HydroQubes ( a hydrogen infusion system that improves fuel economy) composed of 2 cells. The addendum states that CoolTech shall start production and fulfillment of the orders no later than the 3rd Quarter of 2019.

 

The value of the purchase commitment is expected to be between $17,000,000 and $22,000,000. On April 9, 2018, Jatropha executed a purchase order with the Company for 10 Ford F-350s with MG80 kVA systems installed. The value of the initial order is in excess of one million dollars. Completion of the order is dependent upon Jatropha securing a letter of credit within 45 days of the order. The process of securing the letter of credit is underway (See ‘Mexican Government’ heading below) and the Company is not enforcing the timeline set forth in the order.

National Union of Producers in Mexico for the state of Veracruz

 

In December 2017, the Company received a purchase commitment for 24 to 50 MG units from the National Union of Producers in Mexico for the state of Veracruz. Depending on the respective numbers of MG55 and MG80 kVA systems ordered, the Company expects the value of the commitment to range between $1,200,000 and $3,900,000.

 

The union represents farmers who grow labor and energy intensive crops such as sugar cane, tobacco, bananas, coffee, rice and vanilla. It expects that the MG systems will increase yields, exports and incomes for its members and their communities.

 

According to the contract, the Company will deliver an MG 80 retro-fitted onto a Ford F-350 truck within 60 business days.

 

On February 23, 2018, Veracruz signed an agreement to amend their previous purchase agreement. It eliminates the 60 business day deadline for the truck to be shipped to Mexico. Under the new agreement, representatives from Veracruz will come to Colorado for an inspection and live performance demonstration. If approved, the generator-equipped trucks will go into production as specified in the original purchase agreement.

 

A representative of the National Union of Jatropha Producers approved the generator-equipped truck. It will go into production as the Company and Veracruz secure final funding.

 

Payment terms require 50% down and 50% at time of shipment, each payable with a bank letter of credit. Product delivery will be considered FOB (Freight on Board) from Cool Technologies’ shipping dock.

 

Panasonic System Communications Company of North America.

 

In January 2018, the Company announced that its Mobile Generation systems will incorporate Panasonic Toughpad tablets to run CoolTech’s software.

 

The association between the two companies dates back to April 2017 when Cool Technologies demonstrated its Mobile Generation (MG) system at Craftsmen Industries in St. Louis. In attendance was the Executive Director-Product Planning Strategy and Innovation, Silicon Valley Center for Panasonic Corporation of North America. He received a demonstration of the MG technology as well as an overview of CoolTech’s thermal dispersion technologies. That led to several conversations and meetings regarding the ways in which the two companies could pursue joint initiatives and opportunities.

 

The first initiative resulted in CoolTech’s use of the Panasonic Toughpad tablet to provide a rugged touchscreen interface for field technicians to control and calibrate the Mobile Generation systems. The Toughpad will be deployed in the trucks’ cabs as a standard part of an MG system.

 

Aon Risk Services Central, Inc and Lee and Hayes, PLLC

 

In January 18, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with Aon Risk Services Central, Inc. and Lee and Hayes, PLLC, through its operating unit, 601West, which provides intellectual property (“IP”) analytics, to assess the value of the Company’s IP. As set forth in the agreement, the assessment will be founded on historically demonstrated or contractually committed profit-earning capacities of the IP and may be used to obtain financing, including but not limited to, non-dilutive financing. The Company is using the valuation to obtain non-dilutive funding.

 

Live MG80 Demonstration in Fort Collins, Colorado

 

On May 4, 2018, nine representatives from Mexico’s farming, banking, and government sectors flew to Fort Collins, Colorado for a live demonstration of CoolTech’s generator-equipped truck. The demonstration showcased the capabilities and ease of operation of the system. The Company demonstrated how an operator is able to control the generator from the comfort and safety of the truck’s cab using a Panasonic Toughpad. The Company also used the electricity from the truck to power a screw compressor, an industrial fan, and an industrial load bank. Additional capabilities, such as purifying water and using batteries and solar power to make operations more sustainable and environmentally friendly were discussed with the attendees.

A representative of the National Union of Jatropha Producers approved the generator-equipped truck. CoolTech plans to put this into production as soon as final funding is secured. Based on initial feedback and subsequent meetings and conversations with other attendees, the Company expects the demonstration will lead to new orders.

 

Purchase and Delivery of Truck to Craftsmen Industries

 

On July 15, 2018, the Company purchased a Ford F-450 Chassis Cab Truck. Subsequently, a metal flat bed was manufactured and installed. The truck was delivered to Craftsmen on September 15th. It will be used for the installation and refinement of the MG 80 kVA system. The Company is in the process of purchasing a second F-450 that will be used for the MG 125 kVA system.

 

Order of Parts and Components

 

During the week of October 7, 2018, the Company placed orders for System Controllers, 80 and 125 kVA Generators, Voltage Regulators, Panasonic Toughpads, Power Take-Offs (PTO) and Split Shaft PTOs.

 

CALSTART, Inc.

 

CoolTech joined CALSTART, Inc. (“CALSTART”) a non-profit, clean transportation technology coalition in November 2018. The coalition works with member companies and agencies to foster a high-tech clean-transportation industry by accelerating the adoption of emerging technologies and helping build markets.

 

Since then, the Company has been in contact with 4 utilities, 3 telecoms, 2 truck upfitters and 3 hybrid truck manufacturers. Proposals have been made for 3 MG systems of differing power to be installed on California Air Resources Board (CARB) certified vehicles, an MG No-idle system and an MG truck with a hydrogen-infused fuel system.

 

On Thursday, January 17, 2019, a representative of the Company attended a meeting of the CALSTART Leadership Circle at Porsche Cars North American Headquarters, in Atlanta. Among the topics covered were the infrastructure pathway for electric vehicles and electric vehicle market growth. At the event, the Company met with representatives from Southern Company, Duke Energy and Altec, Inc.

 

Creation and Delivery of Business Proposals

 

The Company has been very active in putting forth new business proposals in line with its strategy to target specific industry markets. Management regularly reviews relevant press releases, major media articles and trade publications from various industries to keep up with trends and uncover opportunities. Company officers also attend seminars and conferences to meet and network with prospective clients. Since the beginning of the year, the Company has delivered proposals to major utilities (Southern Company, Duke Energy) and car manufacturers (Porsche) covering electric vehicle charging for dealers and customers.

 

TARDEC

 

On February 26, 2019, a representative of the Company attended a Collaboration Day with the U.S. Army’s Tank Automotive Research Development and Engineering Center (TARDEC) at Marine Corps Air Station, Miramar. TARDEC is the U.S. Army’s Research, Development and Engineering Center for all Ground Vehicles and Ground Vehicle Systems technology and integration, as well as Fuels and Lubricants, Water Supply and Wastewater Treatment, Tactical Military Bridging, Construction Equipment, Material Handling Equipment, and Army Watercraft. The Company participated in one-on-one sessions with members from the Ground Vehicle Power and Mobility team which pursues advanced technologies to increase fleet energy flexibility and efficiency with the goal of providing more power output without adding weight that degrades system performance.

On February 27, 2019, the Company participated in Tardec’s Vehicle Electrification Forum which serves to advance electrification of Army combat and tactical systems by enabling industry to innovate products that meet Army needs and requirements. The Forum is a mechanism for industry to contribute to the formation of TARDEC’s Vehicle Electrification Strategy. A representative from the Company participated in a session covering electric recharging and issues related to future powertrain configurations including improved system efficiency; requirements for hybrid, electric, and fuel cell configurations; energy storage; vehicle-to-grid and vehicle-to-vehicle capabilities; and engine/transmission improvements.

 

Unveiling of Initial Production Run Vehicle

 

On March 27, 2019 the Company unveiled the initial production run of its Mobile Generation (MG) work trucks for inspection by an audience of agricultural and community leaders from Latin America at Craftsmen Industries.

 

The itinerary for the showcase event included a tour of the St Louis manufacturing facility and inspection of the first production run MG vehicle in operation as it powered a variety of equipment.

 

The purpose of the viewing was not only to show the truck’s capabilities, but to get feedback from the attendees and learn what are their specific needs and applications as well as what features and functions are important to them.

 

The Company believes Latin American politicians, factory owners and fruit growers will attend a similar inspection in St. Louis, Missouri in May.

 

Mexican Government

 

Fulfillment of payment terms for both the Jatropha orders and the Veracruz purchase commitment require the participation of the Mexican government as it is a major source of funding for both unions. During the first half of 2018 (the time of the acceptance by the Company of the order and purchase commitments), a conservative government was running for reelection. Funding decisions were placed on hold. In July, a leftist government was elected and in December a new administration was sworn in.

 

As both Jatropha and Veracruz are farmworkers unions, we believe the government will likely be very responsive to their needs. The Company is in touch with both government officials and the two unions as the funding process continues

 

On April 25, 2019, the CEO of the Company flew to Mexico City to meet with the Secretaries of Energy, Agriculture and the Environment for the new administration as well as federal deputies and representatives.

 

On May 13, 2019, government officials and fruit growers were at Craftsmen Industries in St. Louis for a review of a first run MG80 production vehicle and an overview of the HydroQube (hydrogen infusion) and water purification/desalination options.

 

Introduction of new options

 

During the past quarter, the Company has introduced new options which include an MG System that generates up to 200 kVA of electric power, water purification and desalination systems as well as a hydrogen infusion system called the HydroQube.

 

The truck-mounted water purification and desalination units can produce from 2800 to 10,000 gallons of fresh water every day. Assuming the average person needs 2 liters per day, 10,000 gallons is enough for 18,927 people.

 

A 30 kVA MG system could power any size unit as well as the pumps to deliver the water or five units at once which would conceivably be enough to keep the population of Santa Barbara hydrated. It could even tow a 1,250 gallon water tanker, if needed.

 

The purification and desalinization units feature fully automated controls and monitoring. When combined with the optional telematics offered in the vehicles, each unit could be remotely controlled and monitored from distant locations.

A HydroQube is expected to significantly lower a truck’s diesel fuel consumption. The HydroQube produces hydrogen from water which is then infused into the fuel system. The proprietary process, which does not involve electrolysis, requires minimal power. The addition of the gas produced (oxyhydrogen) should significantly improve fuel economy and efficiency.

Revenues

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, and since inception, the Company has not generated any revenues. Cool Technologies generated its first Mobile Generation order during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 and received a partial deposit in advance of completing the sale with companies controlled by the individual who is a 5% owner of UPT and a shareholder of the Company. The order is in the production queue along with other existing orders.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Payroll and related expenses decreased during the three months ended March 31, 2019 from $136,493 in 2018 to $126,460 in 2019 due to lower federal and state payroll taxes.

 

Consulting expense decreased during the three months ended March 31 from $106,882 in 2018 to $95,324 in 2019 primarily due to the elimination of a.media consultant contract.

 

Professional fees decreased during the three months ended March 31 from $145,041 in 2018 to $81,765 in 2019 due to the elimination of (a) the preparation of a Registration Statement on Form S-1 and (b) the overlapping fees from two accounting firms as one was terminated and the other was hired.

 

Research and development expenses decreased during the three months ended March 31 from $232,931 in 2018 to $14,702 in 2019 due to the completion of the design of the MG system and the Company’s focus on its commercialization.

 

General and administrative expense increased during the three months ended March 31 from $61,494 in 2018 to $85,864 in 2019 due to less spending on travel, advertising and sales promotion.

Other Income and Expense

 

Interest expense increased during the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018 due to accelerated debt discount amortization upon the conversion of convertible notes.

 

Net Loss and Noncontrolling interest

 

Since Cool Technologies has incurred losses since inception, it has not recorded any income tax expense or benefit. Accordingly, the Company’s net loss is driven by operating and other expenses. Noncontrolling interest represents the 5% third-party ownership in UPT, which is subtracted to calculate net loss to shareholders.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company has historically met its liquidity requirements primarily through the public sale and private placement of equity securities, debt financing, and exchanging common stock warrants and options for professional and consulting services. At March 31, 2019, CoolTech had cash of $490,201.

 

Working capital is the amount by which current assets exceed current liabilities. The Company had negative working capital of $4,443,114 and $4,643,956, respectively, at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The decrease in negative working capital was primarily due to an increase in cash and the reduction in the current portion of long term debt.

 

January Convertible Note – On January 26, 2018, the Company entered into a convertible note agreement. CoolTech issued 800,000 inducement shares of restricted common stock and received $200,000, with an original issue discount of $20,000 in lieu of interest, for a total amount of $220,000 due on August 26, 2018.

Table of Contents

 

Net cash used in operating activities decreased as a result of lower spending on research and development. CoolTech’s investing activity relates to the development of patents in both years. Cash provided by financing activities included debt borrowings of $905,345 and $550,000, respectively, during 2019 and 2018.

 

The Company’s capital requirements for the next 12 months will consist of $3.4 million with anticipated expenses of $1.4 million for salaries, public company filings, and consultants and professional fees. An additional $2.0 million in working capital is expected to be needed for inventory and related costs for production of the mobile power generation systems as well as development and commercialization of the thermal dispersion technology applications.

 

Management believes the Company’s funds are insufficient to provide for its projected needs for operations for the next 12 months. They are currently negotiating additional non-dilutive funding to support production of completed systems and vehicles.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company has incurred net losses of $50,697,380 since inception and have not fully commenced operations, raising substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management believes that the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to raise capital, generate revenue, achieve profitable operations and repay its obligations when they come due. As of the issuance date of these condensed consolidated financial statements, management is negotiating additional nondilutive funding arrangements to support completion of the initial phases of the Company’s business plan: to license its thermal technologies and applications, including submersible drypit applications and to license and sell mobile generation retrofit kits driven by CoolTech proprietary gearing system. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be successful in accomplishing these objectives

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, and expenses. Cool Technologies continually evaluates the accounting policies and estimates used to prepare the condensed consolidated financial statements. The estimates are based on historical experience and assumptions believed to be reasonable under current facts and circumstances. Actual amounts and results could differ from these estimates made by management. Certain accounting policies that require significant management estimates and are deemed critical to the results of operations and financial position are discussed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

As a smaller reporting company, Cool Technologies is not required to provide the information required by this Item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Management does not expect that its internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. Control systems, no matter how well conceived and managed, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.

Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as of March 31, 2019, Cool Technologies conducted an evaluation of its disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, based on the material weaknesses discussed below, the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act were recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Act Commission’s rules and forms and that its disclosure controls are not effectively designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Cool Technologies internal controls are not effective for the following reasons, (1) there are no entity level controls, because of the limited time and abilities of the Company’s four officers, (2) there is no separate audit committee, and (3) CoolTech has not implemented adequate system and manual controls. As a result, the Company’s internal controls have inherent weaknesses, which may increase the risks of errors in financial reporting under current operations and accordingly are not effective as evaluated against the criteria set forth in the Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (1992 version). Based on the evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of March 31, 2019.

 

Going forward, Cool Technologies intends to evaluate its processes and procedures and, where practicable, implement changes in order to have more effective controls over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information

 

Item 1. Legal ProceedingsSecurities and Exchange Commission Settlement

 

On September 20, 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved an offer to settle the enforcement proceedings against the Company pursuant to Section 21C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

 

These proceedings arose out of the violation of the Regulation S-X requirement that interim financial statements filed as part of a Form 10-Q be reviewed by an independent public accounting firm prior to filing.

 

On three occasions, specifically, May 20, 2013, August 19, 2013 and August 22, 2016, Cool Technologies filed Form 10-Qs that contained financial statements that were not reviewed by an independent public accounting firm. In two cases, the Company properly disclosed that the 10Q’s were “unaudited and unreviewed” as set forth by the guidance in the Division of Corporation Finance Financial Reporting Manual Section 4410.3. And In each case, the Company subsequently filed a restated and amended Form 10-Q/A that complied with the Interim Review Requirement. In no instance were the filings ever subjected to audit challenge.

 

Pursuant to the enforcement proceeding instituted by the SEC, the Company settled for a fine of $75,000 and agreed to cease and desist from any future violations of Sections 13(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13a-13 thereunder, and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

As a smaller reporting company, Cool Tech is not required to provide the information required by this Item.

 

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

 

The securities above were offered and sold pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act since, among other things, the transactions did not involve a public offering.

 

On February 5, 2019, Cool Technologies issued 5,128,000 shares of common stock to Lucas Hoppel upon final conversion of $64,100 on convertible debt of $226,600 and the note was retired.

 

On February 26, 2019, CoolTech issued 7,500,000 shares of common stock to Lucas Hoppel upon partial conversion of $93,750 on convertible debt of $396,550.

 

On April 23, 2019, Cool Technologies issued 7,500,000 shares of common stock to Lucas Hoppel upon conversion of $93,750 on convertible debt of $396,550.

 

None of the above issuances involved any underwriters, underwriting discounts or commissions, or any public offering and we believe we are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 by virtue of Section 4(2) thereof and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder.
