NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
For the
Three and Six Months Ended September 30, 2009 and 2008
NOTE 1 - MANAGEMENT’S
REPRESENTATION
The
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by
CryoPort, Inc. (the “Company”) in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim
financial information, and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article
8 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission
(“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by GAAP for complete financial statement presentation. However, the
Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included.
Operating
results for the six months ended September 30, 2009 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending March 31,
2010. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes
thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2009.
The
Company has evaluated subsequent events through November 16, 2009, the filing
date of this form 10-Q, and determined that no subsequent events have occurred
that would require recognition in the condensed consolidated financial
statements or disclosure in the notes thereto other than as disclosed in the
accompanying notes.
NOTE 2 - ORGANIZATION AND
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization
The
Company is a provider of an innovative cold chain frozen shipping system
dedicated to providing superior, affordable cryogenic shipping solutions that
ensure the safety, status and temperature, of high value, temperature sensitive
materials. The Company has developed a line of cost-effective
reusable cryogenic transport containers capable of transporting biological,
environmental and other temperature sensitive materials at temperatures below
zero degrees centigrade. These dry vapor shippers are the first
significant alternative to using dry ice and achieve 10+ day holding times
compared to 1–2 day holding times with dry ice. The Company provides safe
transportation and an environmentally friendly, long lasting shipper.
These value-added services include an internet-based web portal that enables the
customer to initiate shipping service and allows the customer to track the
progress and status of a shipment and in-transit temperature monitoring services
of the shipper. CryoPort also provides to its customer at their pick
up location, the fully ready charged shipper containing all freight bills,
customs documents and regulatory paperwork for the entire journey of the
shipper.
The
Company's principal focus has been the further development and commercial launch
of CryoPort Express® Portal – an innovative IT solution for shipping and
tracking high-value specimens through overnight shipping companies –
and its CryoPort Express® Shipper, a line of dry vapor
cryogenic shippers for the transport of biological and pharmaceutical
materials. A dry vapor cryogenic shipper is a container that uses
liquid nitrogen in dry vapor form, which is suspended inside a vacuum insulated
bottle as a refrigerant, to provide storage temperatures below minus 150°
centigrade. The dry vapor shipper is designed using innovative,
proprietary, and patent pending technology such that there can be no pressure
build up as the liquid nitrogen evaporates, nor any spillage of liquid
nitrogen. A proprietary foam retention system is employed to ensure
that liquid nitrogen stays inside the vacuum container even when placed
upside-down or on its side as is often the case when in the custody of a
shipping company. Biological specimens are stored in a specimen
chamber, “well”, inside the container and refrigeration is provided by harmless cold nitrogen gas
evolving from the liquid nitrogen entrapped within the foam retention system
surrounding the well. Biological specimens transported using our
cryogenic shipper can include clinical samples, diagnostics, live cell
pharmaceutical products, such as cancer vaccines, semen and embryos, infectious
substances and other items that require and/or are protected through continuous
exposure to frozen or cryogenic temperatures (less than -150 ° C).

Going
Concern
The
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
conformity with GAAP, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going
concern. The Company has not generated significant revenues from
operations and has no assurance of any future revenues. The Company
generated revenues from operations of $35,124, incurred a net loss of
$16,705,151 and used cash of $2,586,470 in its operating activities during the
year ended March 31, 2009. The Company generated revenues from
operations of $22,181, had net loss of $7,536,045, and used cash of $1,145,497
in its operating activities during the six months ended September 30,
2009. In addition, the Company had a working capital deficit of
$22,902,096, and has cash and cash equivalents of $1,120,758 at September 30,
2009. The Company’s working capital deficit at September 30, 2009
included $18,404,578 of derivative liabilities, the balance of which represented
the fair value of warrants and embedded conversion features related to the
Company’s convertible debentures which were reclassified from equity during
the six months ended September 30, 2009 (see Note 9). Currently
management has projected that cash on hand, including cash borrowed under the
convertible debentures issued in the first second, and third quarter
of fiscal 2010, will be sufficient to allow the Company to continue its
operations only into the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 until more significant
funding can be secured. These matters raise substantial doubt about
the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Through
November 10, 2009, the Company had raised proceeds of $1,381,500 under the
Private Placement Debentures (see Note 8) and proceeds of $1,437,100 (see
Note 11 and 13) from the exercise of warrants. As a result of these
recent financings, the Company had an aggregate cash and cash equivalents and
restricted cash balance of approximately $1,260,453 as of November 10, 2009
which will be used to fund the working capital required for minimal operations
including limited inventory build as well as limited sales efforts to advance
the Company’s commercialization of the CryoPort Express® Shippers until
additional capital is obtained. The Company’s management recognizes that the
Company must obtain additional capital for the achievement of sustained
profitable operations. Management’s plans include obtaining
additional capital through equity and debt funding sources; however, no
assurance can be given that additional capital, if needed, will be available
when required or upon terms acceptable to the Company or that the Company will
be successful in its efforts to negotiate extension of its existing
debt. In this regard on October 6, 2009 the Company filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File
No. 333-162350) for a possible underwritten public offering of units, each unit
to consist of one share of common and one warrant to purchase one share of
common stock. Management cannot assure you that this contemplated
offering will be consummated, or if consummated, whether the proceeds from such
offering will be sufficient to fund the Company’s planned operations. The
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Use of
Estimates
The
preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ
from estimated amounts. The Company’s significant estimates include allowances
for doubtful accounts and sales returns, recoverability of long-lived assets,
realizability of inventories, accrued warranty costs, deferred tax assets and
their accompanying valuations, product liability reserves, valuation of
derivative liabilities and the valuations of common stock, warrants and stock
options issued for products or services.
Cash and Cash
Equivalents
The
Company considers highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days
or less to be cash equivalents.
Concentrations of Credit
Risk
Cash
and cash equivalents
The
Company maintains its cash accounts in financial
institutions. Accounts at these institutions are insured by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). Effective October 3,
2008, the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 raised the FDIC deposit
coverage limits to $250,000 per owner from $100,000 per owner. At
September 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009, the Company had $1,058,485 and $121,042,
respectively, of cash balances, including restricted cash, which were in excess
of the FDIC insurance limit. The Company performs ongoing evaluations of these
institutions to limit its concentration risk exposure.
Restricted
cash
The
Company has invested cash in a one year restricted certificate of deposit
bearing interest at 2.32% which serves as collateral for borrowings under a line
of credit agreement (see Note 6). At September 30, 2009 and March 31,
2009, the balance in the certificate of deposit was $102,115 and $101,053,
respectively.
Customers
The
Company grants credit to customers within the United States of America and to a
limited number of international customers and does not require collateral. Sales
to international customers are generally secured by advance payments except for
a limited number of established foreign customers. The Company
generally requires advance or credit card payments for initial sales to new
customers. The Company’s ability to collect receivables is affected
by economic fluctuations in the geographic areas and industries served by the
Company. Reserves for uncollectible amounts and estimated sales
returns are provided based on past experience and a specific analysis of the
accounts which management believes are sufficient. Accounts
receivable at September 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009 are net of reserves for
doubtful accounts and sales returns of approximately of zero and $600,
respectively. Although the Company expects to collect amounts due, actual
collections may differ from the estimated amounts.

The Company has foreign sales primarily in
Europe, Canada, India and Australia. Foreign sales were
approximately $2,200 and $10,700 which constituted approximately 26% and 48%, of
net sales for the three and six months ended September 30, 2009,
respectively, and $300 and $6,500 which constituted approximately 5% and 33%, of
net sales for the three and six months ended September 30, 2008,
respectively.
The
majority of the Company’s customers are in the biotechnology, pharmaceutical and
life science industries. Consequently, there is a concentration of receivables
within these industries, which is subject to normal credit risk.
Fair Value of Financial
Instruments
The
Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted
cash, accounts receivable, related-party notes payable, note payable to officer,
a line of credit, convertible notes payable, accounts payable and accrued
expenses. The carrying value for all such instruments, except the related party
notes payable, approximates fair value at September 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009.
The difference between the fair value and recorded values of the related party
notes payable is not material.
Inventories
Inventories
were stated at the lower of standard cost or current estimated market
value. Cost was determined using the standard cost method which
approximates the first-in, first-out method. The Company periodically
reviewed its inventories and recorded a provision for excess and obsolete
inventories based primarily on the Company’s estimated forecast of product
demand and production requirements. Once established, write-downs of
inventories were considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the
obsolete or excess inventories. Raw materials, work in process and
finished goods included material costs less reserves for obsolete or excess
inventories.
The
Company provides shipping containers to their customers and charges a fee in
exchange for the use of the container. The Company’s arrangements are
similar to the accounting standard for leases since they convey the right to use
the containers over a period of time. The Company retains title to the
containers and provides its customers the use of the container for a specified
shipping cycle. At the culmination of the customer’s shipping cycle, the
container is returned to the Company. As a result, during the quarter
ended September 30, 2009, the Company reclassified the containers from inventory
to fixed assets upon commencement of the loaned-container program (see Note
3).

Betterments,

capitalized; other repairs and maintenance charges are expensed as incurred. The
cost and related accumulated depreciation applicable to assets retired are
removed from the accounts, and the gain or loss on disposition is recognized in
current operations.
The
Company provides shipping containers to their customers and charges a fee in

Intangible
Assets
Intangible
assets are comprised of patents and trademarks and software development
costs. The Company capitalizes costs of obtaining patents and
trademarks which are amortized, using the straight-line method over their
estimated useful life of five years. The Company capitalizes certain
costs related to software developed for internal use. Software
development costs incurred during the preliminary or maintenance project stages
are expensed as incurred, while costs incurred during the application
development stage are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method
over the estimated useful life of the software, which is five
years. Capitalized costs include purchased materials and costs of
services including the valuation of warrants issued to consultants using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model.
Long-Lived
Assets
The
Company’s management assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets upon
the occurrence of a triggering event by determining whether the depreciation and
amortization of long-lived assets over their remaining lives can be recovered
through projected undiscounted future cash flows. The amount of long-lived asset
impairment, if any, is measured based on fair value and is charged to operations
in the period in which long-lived asset impairment is determined by management.
At September 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009, the Company’s management believes
there is no impairment of its long-lived assets. There can be no assurance
however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company’s
products will continue, which could result in impairment of its long-lived
assets in the future.
Deferred Financing
Costs
Deferred financing costs represent costs incurred in
connection with the Company’s planned public offering of units and issuance of
the convertible notes payable. Deferred financing costs are being
amortized over the term of the financing instrument on a straight-line basis,
which approximates the effective interest method. During the six month
periods ended September 30, 2009, the Company capitalized deferred financing
costs of $215,752, of which $124,518 related to the Company’s planned public
offering and will be reclassified to paid-in capital and netted against the
proceeds of the offering upon completion. Amortization of deferred
financing costs was $17,675 and $25,579 for the three and six months ended
September 30, 2009, respectively, and $10,767 and $27,929 for the three and
six months ended September 30, 2008, respectively.

Derivative
Liabilities
Effective
April 1, 2009, certain of the Company's issued and outstanding common
stock purchase warrants and embedded conversion features previously treated as
equity pursuant to the derivative treatment exemption were no longer afforded
equity treatment, and the fair value of these common stock purchase warrants and
embedded conversion features, some of which have exercise price reset features
and some that were issued with convertible debt, were reclassified from equity
to liability status as if these warrants were treated as a derivative liability
since their date of issue. The common stock purchase warrants were
not issued with the intent of effectively hedging any future cash flow, fair
value of any asset, liability or any net investment in a foreign operation. The
warrants do not qualify for hedge accounting, and as such, all future changes in
the fair value of these warrants will be recognized currently in earnings until
such time as the warrants are exercised, expire or the related rights have been
waived. These common stock purchase warrants do not trade in an active
securities market, and as such, the Company estimates the fair value
of these warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model (see “Change in
Accounting Principle” section below and Note 9).
Convertible
Debentures
If the
conversion features of conventional convertible debt provide for a rate of
conversion that is below market value, this feature is characterized as a
beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). A BCF is recorded by the
Company as a debt discount pursuant. In those circumstances, the convertible
debt will be recorded net of the discount related to the BCF. The
Company amortizes the discount to interest expense over the life of the debt
using the effective interest rate method (see Note 8).
Revenue
Recognition
Four conditions must be met before revenue can be
recognized: (i) there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; (ii)
delivery has occurred or service has been rendered; (iii) the price is fixed or
determinable; and (iv) collection is reasonably assured. The Company records a
provision for sales returns and claims based upon historical experience. Actual
returns and claims in any future period may differ from the Company’s
estimates. During its early years, the Company's limited
revenue was derived from the sale of our reusable product line. The Company's
current business plan focuses on per-use leasing of the shipping container and
added-value services that will be used by us to provide an end-to-end and
cost-optimized shipping solution.
The
Company provides shipping containers to their customers and charges a fee in
exchange for the use of the container. The Company’ arrangements are
similar to the accounting standard for leases since they convey the right to use
the containers over a period of time. The Company retains title to the
containers and provides its customers the use of the container for a specified
shipping cycle. At the culmination of the customer’s shipping cycle, the
container is returned to the Company.

Accounting for Shipping and
Handling Revenue, Fees and Costs
The
Company classifies amounts billed for shipping and handling as revenue. Shipping
and handling fees and costs are included in cost of sales.
Advertising
Costs
The
Company expenses the cost of advertising when incurred as a component of
selling, general and administrative expenses. During the six month periods ended
September 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company expensed approximately $9,000 and
$51,000, respectively, in advertising costs.
Research and Development
Expenses
The
Company expenses internal research and development costs as incurred.
Third-party research and development costs are expensed when the contracted work
has been performed.
Stock-Based
Compensation
All
share-based payments to employees and directors, including grants of employee
stock options and warrants, are recognized in the consolidated financial
statements based upon their fair values. The Company uses the Black-Scholes
option pricing model to estimate the grant-date fair value of share-based
awards. Fair value is determined at the date of grant. The
consolidated financial statement effect of forfeitures is estimated at the time
of grant and revised, if necessary, if the actual effect differs from those
estimates. The estimated average forfeiture rate for the six month periods ended
September 30, 2009 and 2008 was zero as the Company has not had a significant
history of forfeitures and does not expect forfeitures in the
future.
Stock
Option Plans
The
Company maintains two stock option plans, the 2002 Stock Incentive Plan (the
“2002 Plan”) and the 2009 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2009 Plan”). The 2002 Plan
provides for grants of incentive stock options and nonqualified options to
employees, directors and consultants of the Company to purchase the Company’s
shares at the fair value, as determined by management and the board of
directors, of such shares on the grant date. The options generally vest over a
five-year period beginning on the grant date and have a ten-year term. As of
September 30, 2009, the Company is authorized to issue up to 5,000,000 shares
under this plan and has 2,210,042 shares available for future
issuances.
On
October 9, 2009, the Company’s stockholders approved and adopted the 2009 Plan,
which had previously been approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on August
31, 2009. The 2009 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock
options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock rights, restricted stock,
performance share units, performance shares, performance cash awards, stock
appreciation rights, and stock grant awards (collectively, “Awards”) to
employees, officers, non-employee directors, consultants and independent
contractors of the Company. A total of 12,000,000 shares of the Company’s common
stock is authorized for the granting of awards under the 2009 Plan. The number
of shares available for awards, as well as the terms of outstanding awards, are
subject to adjustment as provided in the 2009 Plan for stock splits, stock
dividends, recapitalizations and other similar events. Awards may be
granted under the 2009 Plan until October 9, 2019 or until all shares available
for awards under the 2009 Plan have been purchased or acquired. As of
September 30, 2009, no options had been granted under the 2009
Plan.

Summary
of Assumptions and Activity
The fair
value of stock-based awards to employees and directors is calculated using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model, even though this model was developed to
estimate the fair value of freely tradable, fully transferable options without
vesting restrictions, which differ significantly from the Company’s stock
options. The Black-Scholes model also requires subjective assumptions, including
future stock price volatility and expected time to exercise, which greatly
affect the calculated values. The expected term of options granted is derived
from historical data on employee exercises and post-vesting employment
termination behavior. The risk-free rate selected to value any particular grant
is based on the U.S. Treasury rate that corresponds to the pricing term of the
grant effective as of the date of the grant. The expected volatility is based on
the historical volatility of the Company’s stock price. These factors could
change in the future, affecting the determination of stock-based compensation
expense in future periods.
The
following table presents the weighted average assumptions used to estimate the
per share fair values of stock warrants granted to employees and directors

warrants or stock options expired during the six months ended September 30, 2009
and 2008. The Company issues new shares from its authorized shares
upon exercise of warrants or options.
As of
September 30, 2009, there was $251,257 of unrecognized compensation cost related
to employee and director stock based compensation arrangements, which is
expected to be recognized over the next two years.
The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options and
warrants exercised during the six month periods ended September 30,
2009 and 2008 was $60,690 and $203,012,
respectively.
Issuance of Stock for
Non-Cash Consideration
All
issuances of the Company's stock for non-cash consideration have been assigned a
per share amount equaling either the market value of the shares issued or the
value of consideration received, whichever is more readily determinable. The
majority of the non-cash consideration received pertains to services rendered by
consultants and others and has been valued at the market value of the shares on
the dates issued. In certain instances, the Company has discounted the values
assigned to the issued shares for illiquidity and/or restrictions on
resale.
The
measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is
determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance
by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant
or vendor's performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to
consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term
of the consulting agreement. The Company records the fair value of the fully
vested non-forfeitable common stock issued for future consulting services as
prepaid expenses in its consolidated balance sheets.

Income
Taxes
Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to
apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are
expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that
includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for certain
deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not
realize tax assets through future operations. The Company is a subchapter "C"
corporation and files a federal income tax return. The Company files separate
state income tax returns for California and Nevada.
Basic and Diluted Loss Per
Share
Basic loss per common share is computed based on the
weighted average number of shares outstanding during the
period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by
the weighted average shares outstanding assuming all dilutive potential common
shares were issued. For the six months ended September 30, 2009 and
2008, the Company was in a loss position and the basic and diluted loss per
share are the same since the effect of stock options and warrants on loss per
share was anti-dilutive and thus not included in the diluted loss per share
calculation. The impact under the treasury stock method of dilutive stock
options and warrants and the if-converted method of convertible debt would have
resulted in weighted average common shares outstanding of 66,572,876 and
67,039,579 for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2009 and
58,965,164 and 58,459,328 for the

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In
May 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 855-10, Subsequent Events, or ASC
855-10, which establishes general standards for accounting and disclosure of
events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial
statements are issued or are available to be issued. The pronouncement requires
the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent
events and the basis for that date, whether that date represents the date the
financial statements were issued or were available to be issued. The Company
adopted ASC 855-10 and evaluated subsequent events through the issuance date of
the financial statements. ASC 855-10 did not have a material impact on its
consolidated financial statements.
In
June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 105-10, The FASB Accounting Standards
Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or
ASC 105-10. ASC 105-10 became the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized
by the FASB to be applied by nongovernment entities. It also modified the GAAP
hierarchy to include only two levels of GAAP; authoritative and
non-authoritative. The Company adopted ASC 105-10 for the reporting in its 2009
second quarter. The adoption did not have a significant impact on its
consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations or
consolidated statements of cash flows.
Change in Accounting
Principle
Equity-linked
instruments (or embedded features) that otherwise meet the definition of a
derivative are not accounted for as derivatives if certain criteria are met, one
of which is that the instrument (or embedded feature) must be indexed to the
entity’s own stock. The warrant and convertible debt agreements contain
adjustment (or ratchet) provisions and accordingly, we determined that
these instruments are not indexed to the Company’s common stock. As a
result, the Company is required to account for these instruments as derivatives
or liabilities. The Company applied these provisions to outstanding instruments
as of April 1, 2009. The cumulative effect at April 1, 2009 to record, at
fair value, a liability for the warrants and embedded conversion features,
including the effects on the discounts on the convertible notes of
$2,595,095, resulted in an aggregate reduction to equity
of $13,875,623 consisting of a reduction to additional paid-in capital
of $4,217,730 and an increase in the accumulated deficit of $9,657,893 to
reflect the change in the accounting. The warrants and embedded
conversion features will be carried at fair value and adjusted quarterly through
earnings.

Fair Value
Measurements
The
Company determines the fair value of its derivative instruments using a
three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements which these assets and
liabilities must be grouped, based on significant levels of observable or
unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from
independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market
assumptions. This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when
available. These two types of inputs have created the following fair-value
hierarchy:
Level 1 —
Valuations based on unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for
identical securities. Currently the Company does not have any items classified
as Level 1.
Level 2 —
Valuations based on observable inputs (other than Level 1 prices), such as
quoted prices for similar assets at the measurement date; quoted prices in
markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either
directly or indirectly. Currently the Company does not have any items classified
as Level 2.
Level 3 —
Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall
fair value measurement, and involve management judgment. The Company used the
Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of the
instruments.
If the
inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value
hierarchy, a financial security’s hierarchy level is based upon the lowest level
of input that is significant to the fair value
measurement.
The
following table presents the Company’s warrants and embedded conversion features
measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2009 and

October 2007 and May 2008
Debentures
In May 2009, approximately $713,000 of the October 2007
Debentures was converted by a note holder. Using the conversion
rate of $0.51 per share per the terms of the Debenture, 1,398,039 shares of
common stock were issued to the investor. In addition, the fair value of
$593,303 related to the conversion feature was reclassed from the liability for
derivative instruments to additional paid-in capital (see Note 9) and
accelerated the recognition of $508,886 of unamortized debt discount as
interest expense.
During
the six months ended September 30, 2009, the Company converted interest payments
due on the October 2007 and May 2008 convertible debentures (the "Debentures")
totaling $126,710 into 428,134 shares of common stock using the
conversion rate of $0.40.
On July
30, 2009, the Company entered into a Consent, Waiver and Agreement with the
holders of the Debentures (the “July Agreement”). Pursuant to the
terms of the July Agreement, the Holders (i) consented to the Company’s issuance
of convertible notes and warrants in connection with a bridge financing of up to
$1,500,000 which commenced in March 2009 (the “Bridge Financing”), and (ii)
waived, as it relates to the Bridge Financing, a covenant contained in the
Debentures not to incur any further indebtedness, except as otherwise permitted
by the Debentures. This Bridge Financing is more particularly
described below under the caption “Private Placement Debentures.” In
addition, in connection with the July Agreement, the Company and Holders
confirmed that (i) the exercise price of the warrants issued to the Holders in
connection with their purchase of the Debentures had been reduced, pursuant to
the terms of the warrants, to $0.51 as a result of the Bridge Financing, and
(ii) as a result of the foregoing decrease in the exercise price, pursuant to
the terms of the warrants (the “Warrants”), the number of shares underlying the
Warrants held by Holders of the Debentures had been proportionally increased by
4,043,507 pursuant to the terms of the warrant agreements. As a
result of the foregoing adjustments, the Company recognized a loss in other
expense due to the change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $1,608,540
and a corresponding increase to the liability for derivative
instruments.
On
September 17, 2009, the Company entered into an Amendment to Debentures and
Warrants, Agreement and Waiver (the “Amendment”) with the Holders the Company’s
outstanding Debentures and associated Warrants to purchase common stock, as such
Debentures and Warrants have been amended. The effective date
of the Amendment was September 1, 2009. The purpose of the Amendment
was to restructure the Company’s obligations under the outstanding Debentures in
order to reduce the amount of the required monthly principal payment and
temporarily defer the commencement of monthly principal payments (which was
scheduled to commence September 1, 2009) and ceased the continuing interest
payments for a period time.
The
following is a summary of the material terms of the Amendment:
1. The
Company must obtain stockholder approval of an amendment to its Amended and
Restated Articles of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares
of its common stock to 250,000,000, and file such amendment with the Nevada
Secretary of State, by December 31, 2009.
2. As
of September 1, 2009, the principal amount of the Debentures was increased by
$482,796, which was added to the outstanding principal balances and $403,214 was
recorded as a debt discount and will be amortized over the remaining life of the
Debentures of nine months. The increase reflected all accrued and
unpaid interest as of such date, plus all interest that would have accrued on
the principal amount (as increased as of September 1, 2009, to reflect the then
accrued but unpaid interest) from September 1, 2009, to July 1, 2010 (the
maturity date of the Debentures). The Company shall have no
obligation under the Debentures to make further payments of interest, and
interest shall cease to accrue, during the period September 1, 2009 to July 1,
2010.

3. The
conversion price of the Debentures was decreased from $0.51 per share to $0.45
per share, which resulted in an increase in the number shares of common stock
which the Debentures may be converted into, an increase in the liability for
derivative instruments of $802,200 and a corresponding loss was recorded in
other expense due to the change in fair value of derivatives.
4. The
commencement of the Company’s obligation to make monthly payments of principal
was deferred from September 1, 2009, to January 1, 2010, at which time the
Company will make monthly pro rata payments to the Holders in the aggregate
amount of $200,000 with a balloon payment due on the maturity date of July 1,
2010. Prior to the Amendment, the Company was obligated to repay the
entire outstanding principal amount of the debentures in twelve equal monthly
payments commencing on August 1, 2009.
5. The
Holders’ existing right to maintain a fully diluted ownership equal to 31.5% has
been increased by the Amendment to a fully diluted ownership of
34.5%.
6. The
exercise price of the outstanding Warrants was decreased from $0.51 per share to
$0.45 per share, which also resulted in a corresponding pro rata increase in the
number of shares that may be purchased upon exercise of the Warrants to an
aggregate of 30,550,955 shares. The reduction in exercise price of
the Warrants to $0.45 per share and the 3,594,230 share increase in the number
of Warrants resulted in an increase in the liability for derivative instruments
of $1,679,990 and a corresponding loss was recorded in other expense due to the
change in fair value of derivative liabilities.
7. The
following additional covenants were added to the Debentures (replacing similar
covenants which had terminated as of June 30, 2009) and shall remain in full
force so long as any of the Debentures remain outstanding (the “Covenant
Period”):
a. The
Company shall maintain a total cash balance of no less than $100,000 at all
times during the Covenant Period;
b. The
Company shall have an average monthly operating cash burn of no more than
$500,000 during the Covenant Period. Operating cash burn is defined by taking
net income (or loss) and adding back all non-cash items, and excludes changes in
assets, liabilities and financing activities;
c. The
Company shall have a minimum current ratio of 0.5 to 1 at all times during the
Covenant Period. This calculation is to be made by excluding the current portion
of the convertible notes payable and accrued interest, and liability from
derivative instruments from current liability for the current
ratio;
d. Accounts
payable shall not exceed $750,000 at any time during the Covenant
Period;
e. Accrued
salaries shall not exceed $350,000 at any time during the Covenant Period;
and
f. The
Company shall not make any revisions to the terms of the existing contractual
agreements for the Notes Payable to Former Officer, Related Party Notes Payable
and the Line of Credit (as each is referred to in the Company’s Form 10-Q for
the period ended June 30, 2009); other than the previous amendment to the
payment terms of a note payable to the Company’s former CEO.
8. The
Company may not deliver a redemption notice with respect to the outstanding
Debentures until such time as the closing price of the Company’s common stock
shall have exceeded $0.70 (as adjusted for stock splits or similar transactions)
for ten consecutive trading days prior to the delivery of the redemption
notice.
On
September 22, 2009, the holders of the May 2008 Debentures converted $100,000
principal into 222,222 shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion
price of $0.45. As a result of the conversion, the Company
reclassified $52,799 of the derivative liability related to the embedded
conversion feature to additional paid in capital and accelerated the recognition
of $41,277 of unamortized debt discount as interest expense.

During
the three and six months ended September 30, 2009, the Company recognized an aggregate of $1,233,360 and $3,387,756 in interest
expense, respectively, due to amortization of debt discount related to the
warrants and embedded conversion features associated with the Company’s
outstanding Debentures. During the three and six months ended

expense, respectively, due to amortization of debt discount related to the warrants and embedded conversion features
associated with the Company’s outstanding Debentures.
Private Placement
Debentures
In March
2009, the Company entered into an Agency Agreement with a broker to raise
capital in a private placement offering of one-year convertible debentures
pursuant to Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Rules promulgated
thereunder (the “Private Placement Debentures”). As of
September 30, 2009, the Company had received gross proceeds of $1,381,500
under this private placement offering of convertible debentures which includes
$395,000 and $1,321,500 raised during the three and six months ended September
30, 2009, respectively (also see Note 13 - Subsequent Events).
The
Company may elect to make principal redemptions on the maturity dates of the
debentures in shares of common stock at a fixed conversion price of $0.51 per
share. At any time, holders may convert the debentures into shares of common
stock at the fixed conversion price of $0.51. The conversion price is subject to
adjustment in the event the Company issues its next equity financing of at least
$2,500,000 at a price below $0.51 per share.
Per the
terms of the convertible debenture agreements, the notes have a term of one year
from issuance and are redeemable by the Company with two days
notice. The notes bear interest at 8% per annum and are convertible
into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate of $0.51 per
share. In connection with the Private Placement Debentures, the
Company issued to investors an aggregate of 541,772 five-year warrants to
purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.51 per share (the “Private
Placement Warrants”), which includes 154,902 warrants and 518,242 warrants
issued to investors during the three and six months ended September 30, 2009,
respectively. The Company has determined the aggregate fair value of the issued
warrants as of the dates of each grant, based on the Black-Scholes pricing
model, to be approximately $72,642 and $291,571 for the three and six months
ended September 30, 2009. The exercise price of the warrants is subject to
adjustment in the event the Company issues its next equity financing of at least
$2,500,000 at a price below $0.51 per share. At September 30, 2009,
the aggregate fair value of the Private Placement Warrants was $252,971 and is
accounted for as a derivative liability (see Note 9).
In
connection with the issuance of the Private Placement Debentures, the Company
recognized a debt discount and derivative liability at the dates of issuance in
the aggregate amount of $1,125,773 related to the fair value of the warrants and
embedded conversion features, which included $256,992 and $1,080,201 of debt
discount recorded for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2009,
respectively. The debt discount will be amortized to interest expense over the
life of the debentures and the derivative liability will be revalued each
reporting period with changes in fair value recognized in earnings.
During
the three and six months ending September 30, 2009, the Company recognized an
aggregate of $235,519 and $349,813 in interest expense, respectively, due to
amortization of debt discount related to the warrants and embedded conversion
features associated with the Company’s outstanding Private Placement
Debentures. There were no corresponding amounts recognized during the
three and six months ended September 30, 2008 related to the Private Placement
Debentures.

NOTE 9 — DERIVATIVE
LIABILITIES
In
accordance with current accounting guidance (see Note 2), outstanding warrants
to purchase shares of common stock and embedded conversion features in
convertible notes payable previously treated as equity were no longer afforded
equity treatment because these instruments have reset or ratchet provisions in
the event the Company raises additional capital at a lower price, among other
adjustments. As such, effective April 1, 2009 the
Company reclassified the fair value of these common stock purchase warrants
and embedded conversion features, from equity to liability status as if these
warrants and conversion features were treated as derivative
liabilities since their dates of issuance or modification. The
cumulative effect at April 1, 2009 to record, at fair value, a liability
for the warrants and embedded conversion features, and related adjustments to
discounts on convertible notes of $2,595,095, resulted in an aggregate reduction
to equity of $13,875,623 consisting of a reduction to additional paid-in
capital of $4,217,730 and an increase in the accumulated deficit of $9,657,893
to reflect the change in the accounting.
Any
change in fair value subsequent to April 1, 2009 is recorded as non-operating,
non-cash income or expense at each reporting date. If the fair value of the
derivatives is higher at the subsequent balance sheet date, the Company will
record a non-operating, non-cash charge. If the fair value of the derivatives is
lower at the subsequent balance sheet date, the Company will record
non-operating, non-cash income.
In July
2009, as a result of the July Agreement, the exercise price of the Warrants was
decreased from $0.60 per share to $0.51 per share, which resulted in an increase
in the liability for derivative instruments of $1,608,540 and a corresponding
loss was recorded in other expense due to the change in fair value of derivative
liabilities (see Note 8).
In
September 2009, as a result of the September Amendment, the conversion price of
the Debentures and the exercise price of the Warrants was decreased from $0.51
per share to $0.45 per share, pursuant to the terms of the Debentures, which
resulted in an aggregate increase in the liability for derivative instruments of
$1,679,990 and a corresponding loss was recorded in other expense due to the
change in fair value of derivative liabilities. In addition, the
conversion price of the Debentures was decreased from $0.51 per share to $0.45
per share, which resulted in an increase in the number shares of common stock
which the Debentures may be converted into, an increase in the liability for
derivative instruments of $802,200 and a corresponding loss was recorded in
other expense due to the change in fair value of derivatives (see Note
8).
During
the six months ended September 30, 2009, the Company issued a total of 200,000
warrants to various consultants in lieu of fees paid for services performed by
consultants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at an average
exercise price of $0.51 per share. The exercise prices of these
warrants are equal to the stock price of the Company’s shares as of the dates of
each grant. The Company determined the aggregate fair value of the
issued warrants, based on the Black-Scholes pricing model, to be approximately
$87,448 as of the dates of each grant. Since the exercise price of the
warrants is subject to adjustment in the event the Company issues the next
equity financing, the warrants are accounted for as a derivative
liability.
During
the six months ended September 30, 2009, in connection with the termination of a
consulting agreement, the Company modified the terms of 546,761 warrants issued
in October 2007 and May 2008. The exercise price of the warrants was reduced
from $0.84 per share to $0.60 per share and the expiration date was extended to
5 years from the date of modification. As a result of the modification, the
Company recognized expense of $10,763 in other expense based on
the change in the Black-Scholes fair value before and after
modification.
During
the three and six months ended September 30, 2009, the Company recognized
aggregate losses of $4,535,848 and $1,401,550, respectively, due to the change
in fair value of its derivative instruments. See Note 2 – Organization and Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies – Fair Value Measures, for the components
of changes in derivative liabilities. During the three and six months
ended September 30, 2008, there were no derivative liabilities and therefore no
recognized changes in fair value.

Operating
Leases
On July 2, 2007, the Company entered into a lease
agreement with Viking Investors - Barents Sea, LLC (Lessor) for a building with
approximately 11,881 square feet of manufacturing and office space located at
20382 Barents Sea Circle, Lake Forest, CA, 92630. The lease agreement is for a
period of two years with renewal options for three, one-year periods, beginning
September 1, 2007. The lease requires base lease payments of approximately
$13,000 per month plus operating expenses. In connection with the lease
agreement, the Company issued 10,000 warrants to the lessor at an exercise price
of $1.55 per share for a period of two years, valued at $15,486 as calculated
using the Black Scholes option pricing model. The assumptions used under the
Black-Scholes pricing model included: a risk free rate of 4.75%; volatility of
293%; an expected exercise term of 5 years; and no annual dividend rate. The
Company has capitalized and is amortizing the value of the warrants over
the life of the lease and the remaining unamortized value of the warrants has
been recorded in other long-term assets. The
Company capitalized and amortized the value of the warrants over the life of the
lease and recorded the unamortized value of the warrants in other long-term
assets. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2009, the
Company amortized $1,776 and $2,970, respectively. As of September
30, 2009, the fair value of the warrants has been fully amortized.
On August 24, 2009, the Company entered into the second amendment
to the lease for its manufacturing and office space. The amendment extended the
lease for twelve months from the end of the existing lease term with a right to
cancel the lease with a minimum of 120 day written notice at anytime as of
November 30, 2009. In the event the Company does exercise its option
to cancel the lease, the Company shall reimburse the Lessor for the unearned
leasing commissions. Total rental expense was
approximately $42,000 and $85,000 for the three and six months ended
September 30, 2009, respectively, and approximately $44,000 and $90,000 for
the three and six months ended September 30, 2008,
respectively.
Litigation
The
Company may become a party to product litigation in the normal course of
business. The Company accrues for open claims based on its historical experience
and available insurance coverage. In the opinion of management, there are no
legal matters involving the Company that would have a material adverse effect
upon the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
Indemnities and
Guarantees
The
Company has made certain indemnities and guarantees, under which it may be
required to make payments to a guaranteed or indemnified party, in relation to
certain actions or transactions. The Company indemnifies its directors,
officers, employees and agents, as permitted under the laws of the States of
California and Nevada. In connection with its facility lease, the Company has
indemnified its lessor for certain claims arising from the use of the facility.
The duration of the guarantees and indemnities varies, and is generally tied to
the life of the agreement. These guarantees and indemnities do not provide for
any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be
obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not been obligated nor incurred
any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been
recorded for these indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying unaudited
consolidated balance sheets.

DM, Inc. was $116,626 and $174,928, respectively. Amortization
expense related to the value of the shares and warrants was $29,151 and $58,302
for the three and six months ended September 30, 2009,
respectively, and is included in selling, general and administrative
expenses.
In May
2009, $713,000 of the October 2007 Debentures was converted by the note
holder. Using the conversion rate of $0.51 per share per the terms of
the Debenture, 1,398,039 shares of registered common stock were issued to the
investor.
In July
2009, the Company engaged an agent to solicit the holders of certain warrants to
exercise their rights to purchase shares of the Company’s common
stock. Pursuant to the terms of the engagement, the Company agreed to
pay the agent compensation of 5% of the gross proceeds totaling
$51,174, which is included equity and netted again the gross proceeds in the

purchase a number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to 5% of the
number of shares issued in the exercise of the warrants, or a total of 166,600
warrants as of September 30, 2009. The warrant has an exercise price
of $0.51. As of September 30, 2009, the estimated fair value of
warrants owed to the agent was approximately $82,000 and has been recorded as an
accrued liability with the offset to additional paid in capital on the
accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheet, and will permit the agent or
its designees to purchase shares of common stock on or prior to October 1,
2014. During the three months ended September 30, 2009, the Company
issued 3,332,000 shares of its common stock for gross cash proceeds of $999,600
from the exercise of warrants which resulted from the solicitation.
During
July 2009, the Company entered into the July Agreement with the holders of the
Company’s Debentures (see Note 8). Pursuant to the terms of the July Agreement,
the Holders (i) consented to the Company’s issuance of convertible notes and
warrants in connection with the Bridge Financing of up to $1,500,000 which
commenced in March 2009, and (ii) waived, as it relates to the Bridge Financing,
a covenant contained in the Debentures not to incur any further indebtedness,
except as otherwise permitted by the Debentures. This Bridge Financing is more
particularly described in Note 8 above under the caption “Private Placement
Debentures.” In addition, in connection with the July Agreement, the Company and
Holders confirmed that (i) the exercise price of the warrants issued to the
Holders in connection with their purchase of the Debentures had been reduced,
pursuant to the terms of the warrants, to $0.51 as a result of the Bridge
Financing, and (ii) as a result of the foregoing decrease in the exercise price,
pursuant to the terms of the warrants, the number of shares underlying the
warrants held by Holders of the Debentures had been proportionally increased by
4,043,507 pursuant to the terms of the warrant agreements (see Note
8).

2006, Peter Berry the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer, agreed to
convert his deferred salaries to a long-term note payable. Under the terms of
this note, the Company began to make monthly payments of $3,000 to Mr. Berry in
January 2007. In January 2008, these monthly payments increased to $6,000 and
will remain at that amount until the loan is fully paid in December 2010.
Interest of 6% per annum on the outstanding principal balance of the note began
to accrue on January 1, 2008. As of September 30, 2009 and March 31,
2009, the total amount of deferred salaries and accrued interest under this
arrangement was $132,476 and $157,688, respectively, of which $36,476 and

from the Company’s Board of Directors and in July 2009 Mr. Cannon was given 30
days notice that he was terminated as the general legal counsel and advisor to
the Company (see Note 13 for subsequent events).

General
Overview
The
following management discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial
condition and results of operations (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2009 (unaudited) and
March 31, 2009 (audited) and the related unaudited consolidated statements of
operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the
unaudited consolidated statements of cash flows for the three and six months
ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 and the related notes thereto (see Item 1.
Financial Statements) as well as the audited consolidated financial statements
of the Company as of March 31, 2009 and 2008 and for the years then ended
included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March
31, 2009. The Company cautions readers that important facts and factors
described in this MD&A and elsewhere in this document sometimes have
affected, and in the future could affect, the Company’s actual results, and
could cause the Company’s actual results during fiscal year 2010 and beyond to
differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made
by, or on behalf of the Company.
The
Company is a provider of an innovative cold chain frozen shipping system
dedicated to providing superior, affordable cryogenic shipping solutions that
ensure the safety, status and temperature, of high value, temperature sensitive
materials. The Company has developed a line of cost effective
reusable cryogenic transport containers capable of transporting biological,
environmental and other temperature sensitive materials at temperatures below
zero degrees centigrade. These dry vapor shippers are the first
significant alternative to using dry ice and achieve 10+ day holding times
compared to 1–2 day holding times with dry ice.
31
The
Company's value proposition comes from both providing a safe, transportation and
environmentally friendly, long lasting shipper. Through its
value added services the Company offers a simple hassle-free solution for
our customers. These value-added services include; an internet-based
web portal that enables the customer to initiate shipping service and allows the
customer to track the progress and status of a shipment, and in-transit
temperature monitoring services of the shipper. CryoPort also
provides to its customer at their pick up location, the fully ready charged
shipper containing all freight bills, customs documents and regulatory paperwork
for the entire journey of the shipper.
The
Company's principal focus has been the further development and commercial launch
of CryoPort Express® Portal –an innovative IT solution for shipping and tracking
high-value specimens through overnight shipping companies, and it’s
CryoPort Express® Shipper, a line of dry vapor cryogenic shippers for the
transport of biological and pharmaceutical materials. A dry vapor
cryogenic shipper is a container that uses liquid nitrogen in dry vapor form,
which is suspended inside a vacuum insulated bottle as a refrigerant, to provide
storage temperatures below minus 150° centigrade. The dry vapor
shipper is designed using innovative, proprietary, and patent pending technology
such that there can be no pressure build up as the liquid nitrogen evaporates,
nor any spillage of liquid nitrogen. A proprietary foam retention
system is employed to ensure that liquid nitrogen stays inside the vacuum
container –even when placed upside-down or on its side as is often the case when
in the custody of a shipping company. Biological specimens are stored
in a specimen chamber, “well”, inside the container and refrigeration is
provided by harmless
cold nitrogen gas evolving from the liquid nitrogen entrapped within the foam
retention system surrounding the well. Biological specimens
transported using our cryogenic shipper can include clinical samples,
diagnostics, live cell pharmaceutical products, such as cancer vaccines, semen
and embryos, infectious substances and other items that require and/or are
protected through continuous exposure to frozen or cryogenic temperatures (less
than -150 ° C).
During its
early years, the Company's limited revenue was derived from the sale of our
reusable product line. The Company's current business plan focuses
on per-use leasing
of the shipping container and added-value services that will be used by us to
provide an end-to-end and cost-optimized shipping solution to life science
companies moving pharmaceutical and biological samples in clinical trials and
pharmaceutical distribution.
Going
Concern
As
reported in the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on the
Company’s March 31, 2009 and 2008 financial statements, the Company has incurred
recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since
inception. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about
the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
There are
significant uncertainties which negatively affect the Company’s
operations. These are principally related to (i) the expected ramp up
of sales of the new CryoPort Express® System, (ii) the absence of any commitment
or firm orders from key customers in the Company’s target markets, and (iii) the
success in bringing additional products concurrently under development to market
with the Company’s key customers. Moreover, there is no assurance as
to when, if ever, the Company will be able to conduct the Company’s operations
on a profitable basis. The Company’s limited historical sales for the
Company’s reusable product, limited introductory sales to date of the CryoPort
Express® System and the lack of any purchase requirements in the existing
distribution agreements, make it impossible to identify any trends in the
Company’s business prospects.
The
Company has not generated significant revenues from operations and has no
assurance of any future revenues. The Company generated revenues from
operations of $35,124, incurred a net loss of $16,705,151 and used cash of
$2,586,470 in its operating activities during the year ended March 31,
2009. The Company generated revenues from operations of $22,181, had
net loss of $7,536,045, and used cash of $1,145,497 in its operating activities
during the six months ended September 30, 2009. In addition, the
Company had a working capital deficit of $22,902,096, and has cash and cash
equivalents of $1,120,758 at September 30, 2009. The Company’s
working capital deficit at September 30, 2009 included $18,404,758 of derivative
liabilities, the balance of which represented the fair value of warrants and
embedded conversion features related to the Company’s convertible debentures and
were reclassified from equity during the six months ended September 30, 2009
(see Note 9 in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements). Currently management has projected that cash on hand,
including cash borrowed under the convertible debentures issued in the first,
second and third quarter of fiscal 2010, will be sufficient to allow the
Company to continue its operations into the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 until
more significant funding can be secured. These matters raise
substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern.
32
The
Company’s management has recognized that the Company must obtain additional
capital for the commercialization of the CryoPort Express® System and the
eventual achievement of sustained profitable operations. In response
to this need for capital, in March 2009 the Company entered into an Agency
Agreement with a broker to raise capital in a private placement offering of
one-year convertible debentures under Regulation D (the “Private Placement
Debentures”). From March through November 10, 2009, the Company
had raised gross proceeds of $1,381,500 under the Private Placement Debentures
(see Note 8 to the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements). In addition, the Company has received additional
proceeds of $1,437,100 from the exercises of warrants. As a result of
these recent financings, the Company had aggregate cash and cash
equivalents and restricted cash balances of approximately $1,260,453 as of
November 10, 2009, which will be used to fund the working capital required for
minimal operations as well as the sales and marketing efforts to continue the
Company’s commercialization of the CryoPort Express® System until additional
capital is obtained. Management’s plans include obtaining additional capital
through equity and debt funding sources, however, no assurance can be given that
additional capital, if needed, will be available when required or upon terms
acceptable to the Company or that the Company will be successful in its efforts
to negotiate extension of its existing debt. The accompanying
unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that
might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Management
is committed to minimizing current cash usage and securing significant
financings to fully execute its business plan and grow at the desired rate to
achieve sustainable profitable operations. To further facilitate the
ability of the Company to continue as a going concern, the Company’s management
has begun taking the following steps:
1)
|
Focusing
additional effort on the commercialization of the CryoPort Express®
System. Management has begun initiating meetings with potential customers
for the use of the CryoPort
Express.
|
2)
|
Aggressively
seeking additional capital sources for significant long-term funding of
approximately $10,000,000 to allow the Company to fully commercialize the
CryoPort Express® System and to achieve and sustain profitable
operations. On October 6, 2009 the Company filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission a Registration Statement on Form S-1
(File No. 333-162350) for a possible underwritten public offering of
units, each unit to consist of one share of common and warrant to purchase
one share of common stock. Management cannot assure you that
this contemplated offering will be consummated, or if consummated, whether
the proceeds from such offering will be sufficient to fund the Company’s
planned operations.
|
3)
|
Pursue
and complete a strategic partnership with large freight carriers to be
able to provide a one call simple and reliable solution to shipping frozen
samples. The partnership will also facilitate the ability of
the Company to rapidly call on and achieve sales with the largest target
customers.
|
4)
|
Minimizing
operating and financing expenditures through stringent cost containment
measures to ensure the availability of funds until additional funding is
secured, then continue to minimize expenditures until sufficient revenues
are generated and cash collections adequately support the continued
business operations. The Company’s largest expenses for the six
months ended September 30, 2009, relate to non-cash expenses
including (i) $3,737,569 non-cash expense included in interest expense
relating to the amortization of discounts on convertible debentures and
(ii) non-cash expense recorded in selling, general and administrative
costs of $471,551 related to the valuations of common stock shares and
warrants issued in lieu of cash for consulting services as well as for
directors’ and employee compensation. For the six months ended
September 30, 2009, the Company also incurred cash expenses of (i)
approximately $113,000 for the audit fees and consulting services related
to the filing of the Company’s annual and quarterly reports and compliance
with the Sarbanes-Oxley requirements and (ii) approximately $99,000
additional research and development costs related to the development of
the web based system to be used as a vital function of the CryoPort
Express® System. The remaining operating expenses for the quarter
ended September 30, 2009 related primarily to minimal overhead costs
including personnel costs, rent and utilities and meeting the legal and
reporting requirements of a public
company.
|
5)
|
Utilizing
part-time consultants and temporary employees and requiring employees to
manage multiple roles and responsibilities whenever possible as the
Company has historically utilized in its efforts to keep operating
expenditures minimized.
|
6)
|
Continuing
to require that key employees and the Company’s Board of Directors receive
Company stock in lieu of cash as a portion of their compensation in an
effort to minimize cash expenditures. With this strategy, the Company has
established a team of experienced business professionals for advancing and
launching the Company’s products.
|
7)
|
Maintaining
basic levels for sales, engineering, and operating personnel and gradually
adding critical key personnel only as affordable and necessary to support
the expected revenue growth of the CryoPort Express® System and any
further expansion of the Company’s product offerings in the reusable and
frozen shipping markets.
|
33
8)
|
Adding
other expenses such as customer service, administrative and operations
staff only when commensurate with producing increased
revenues.
|
9)
|
Focusing
current research and development efforts only on final and future
development, production and distribution of the CryoPort Express®
System.
|
10)
|
Increasing
sales efforts to focus on the bio-pharmaceutical, clinical trials and
cold-chain distribution industries in order to identify and call on the
top potential customers for the CryoPort Express®
System.
|
Research and Development
The
Company has completed the research and development efforts associated
with initial phases of the web-based order entry and tracking system and
the CryoPort Express® Shippers, a line of use-and-return dry cryogenic shippers,
the essential components of the Company’s CryoPort Express® System which has
been developed to provide a one-call total solution for the transport of
biological and pharmaceutical materials. The Company
continues to provide ongoing research associated with the CryoPort Express®
System, as it develops improvements in both the manufacturing processes and
product materials and in the web-based customer service portal for the purpose
of achieving additional cost efficiencies and customer functionality. As with
any research effort, there is uncertainty and risk associated with whether these
efforts will produce results in a timely manner so as to enhance the Company’s
market position. For the six months ended September 30, 2009 and
2008, research and development costs were $180,791 and $216,244,
respectively. Company sponsored research and development costs
related to future products and redesign of present products are expensed as
incurred and include such costs as salaries, employee benefits, costs determined
utilizing the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for options issued to the
Scientific Advisory Board and prototype design and materials costs.
The
Company’s research and development efforts are focused on continually improving
the features of the CryoPort Express® System including the web-based customer
service portal and the CryoPort Express® Shippers. Further, these
efforts are expected to lead to the introduction of shippers of varying sizes
based on market requirements, constructed of lower cost materials and utilizing
high volume manufacturing methods that will make it practical to provide the
cryogenic packages offered by the CryoPort Express® System. Other
research and development effort has been directed toward improvements to the
liquid nitrogen retention system to render it more reliable in the general
shipping environment and to the design of the outer
packaging.
Critical
Accounting Policies
The
Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
(“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires us
to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities. The Company bases its estimates on historical
experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable
under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making judgments
about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily
apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these
estimates under different assumptions or conditions, however, in the past the
estimates and assumptions have been materially accurate and have not required
any significant changes. Specific sensitivity of each of the
estimates and assumptions to change based on other outcomes that are reasonably
likely to occur and would have a material effect is identified individually in
each of the discussions of the critical accounting policies described
below. Should the Company experience significant changes in the
estimates or assumptions which would cause a material change to the amounts used
in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements, material quantitative
information will be made available to investors as soon as it is reasonably
available.
The
Company believes the following critical accounting policies, among others,
affect the Company’s more significant judgments and estimates used in the
preparation of the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial
statements:
Allowance for Doubtful
Accounts. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful
accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of the Company’s
customers to make required payments. The allowance for doubtful
accounts is based on specific identification of customer accounts and the
Company’s best estimate of the likelihood of potential loss, taking into account
such factors as the financial condition and payment history of major
customers. The Company evaluates the collectability of the Company’s
receivables at least quarterly. Such costs of allowance for doubtful
accounts is subject to estimates based on the historical actual costs of bad
debt experienced, total accounts receivable amounts, age of accounts receivable
and any knowledge of the customers’ ability or inability to pay outstanding
balances. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were
to deteriorate, resulting in impairment of their ability to make payments,
additional allowances may be required. The differences could be
material and could significantly impact cash flows from operating
activities.
34
Inventory. The
Company writes down its inventories for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable
inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the
estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand, future
pricing and market conditions. Inventory reserve costs are subject to
estimates made by the Company based on historical experience, inventory
quantities, age of inventory and any known expectations for product
changes. If actual future demands, future pricing or market
conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional
inventory write-downs may be required and the differences could be
material. Such differences might significantly impact cash flows from
operating activities. Once established, write-downs are considered
permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the obsolete or unmarketable
inventories.
During
its early years, the Company's limited revenue was derived from the sale of our
reusable product line. The Company's current business plan focuses on per-use
leasing of the shipping container and added-value services that will be used by
us to provide an end-to-end and cost-optimized shipping solution.
The
Company provides shipping containers to their customers and charges a fee in
exchange for the use of the container. The Company’ arrangements are
similar to the accounting standard for leases since they convey the right to use
the containers over a period of time. The Company retains title to the
containers and provides its customers the use of the container for a specified
shipping cycle. At the culmination of the customer’s shipping cycle, the
container is returned to the Company. As a result, during the quarter
ended September 30, 2009, the Company reclassified the containers from inventory
to fixed assets upon commencement of the loaned-container program.
Intangible
Assets. Intangible assets are comprised of patents and
trademarks and software development costs. The Company capitalizes
costs of obtaining patents and trademarks which are amortized, using the
straight-line method over their estimated useful life of five
years. The Company capitalizes certain costs related to software
developed for internal use. Software development costs incurred
during the preliminary or maintenance project stages are expensed as incurred,
while costs incurred during the application development stage are capitalized
and amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of
the software which is five years. Capitalized costs include purchased
materials and costs of services including the valuation of warrants issued to
consultants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets. The Company assesses the recoverability of its
long-lived assets by determining whether the depreciation and amortization of
long-lived assets over their remaining lives can be recovered through projected
undiscounted cash flows. The amount of long-lived asset impairment is
measured based on fair value and is charged to operations in the period in which
long-lived asset impairment is determined by
management. Manufacturing fixed assets are subject to obsolescence
potential as result of changes in customer demands, manufacturing process
changes and changes in materials used. The Company is not currently
aware of any such changes that would cause impairment to the value of its
manufacturing fixed assets.
Deferred Financing
Costs. Deferred financing costs represent costs incurred in
connection with the issuance of the convertible notes
payable. Deferred financing costs are being amortized over the term
of the financing instrument on a straight-line basis, which approximates the
effective interest method.
Accrued Warranty
Costs. The Company estimates the costs of the standard
warranty, which is included with the reusable shippers at no additional cost to
the customer for a period up to one year. These estimated costs are
recorded as accrued warranty costs at the time of product sale. These
estimated costs are subject to estimates made by the Company based on the
historical actual warranty costs, number of products returned for warranty
repair and length of warranty coverage.
Revenue Recognition. Four conditions must be met before revenue
can be recognized: (i) there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists;
(ii) delivery has occurred or service has been rendered; (iii) the price is
fixed or determinable; and (iv) collection is reasonably assured. The Company
records a provision for sales returns and claims based upon historical
experience. Actual returns and claims in any future period may differ from the
Company’s estimates. During its early years, the Company's
limited revenue was derived from the sale of our reusable product line. The
Company's current business plan focuses on per-use leasing of the shipping
container and added-value services that will be used by us to provide an
end-to-end and cost-optimized shipping solution.
The

containers and provides its customers the use of the container for a specified
shipping cycle. At the culmination of the customer’s shipping cycle, the
container is returned to the Company. As a result, during the quarter
ended September 30, 2009, the Company reclassified the containers from inventory
to fixed assets upon commencement of the loaned-container program.
35
Stock-Based
Compensation. The Company accounts for share-based payments to
employees and directors in the consolidated financial statements based upon
their fair values. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to
estimate the grant-date fair value of share-based awards. Fair value is
determined at the date of grant. The consolidated financial statement effect of
forfeitures is estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, if the
actual effect differs from those estimates. The estimated average forfeiture
rate for the periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 was zero as the Company
has not had a significant history of forfeitures and does not expect forfeitures
in the future.
All
transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received by
non-employees for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on
the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity
instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date
used to determine the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier
of the date on which the third-party performance is complete or the date on
which it is probable that performance will occur.
Derivative Liabilities. Our
issued and outstanding common stock purchase warrants and embedded conversion
features previously treated as equity pursuant to the derivative treatment
exemption were no longer afforded equity treatment, and the fair value of these
common stock purchase warrants and embedded conversion features, some of which
have exercise price reset features and some that were issued with convertible
debt, from equity to liability status as if these warrants were treated as a
derivative liability since their date of issue. The common stock
purchase warrants were not issued with the intent of effectively hedging any
future cash flow, fair value of any asset, liability or any net investment in a
foreign operation. The warrants do not qualify for hedge accounting, and as
such, all future changes in the fair value of these warrants will be recognized
currently in earnings until such time as the warrants are exercised or expire.
These common stock purchase warrants do not trade in an active securities
market, and as such, we estimate the fair value of these warrants using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model (see Note 2 and Note 9 to the accompanying
unaudited consolidated financial statements).
Convertible
Debentures. If the conversion feature of conventional
convertible debt provides for a rate of conversion that is below market value,
this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature
(“BCF”). A BCF is recorded by the Company as a debt
discount. In those circumstances, the convertible debt will be
recorded net of the discount related to the BCF. The Company
amortizes the discount to interest expense over the life of the debt using the
effective interest method (see Note 9 of the accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements).
Results
of Operations
Three
months ended September 30, 2009 compared to three months ended September 30,
2008:
Net sales. During the three
months ended September 30, 2009, the Company generated $8,478 from shipper sales
compared to revenues of $5,982 in the same period of the prior year, an increase
of $2,496 (42%).The low revenues in both years was
primarily due to the Company’s shift initiated in mid-2006 in its sales and
marketing focus from the reusable shipper product line. The Company
discontinued sales of the reusable shippers to allow resources to focus on
further development and launch of the CryoPort Express® System and its
introduction into the biopharmaceutical industry sector during fiscal 2009,
which resulted in the slight increase in sales period over
period. The slow increase in product sales was the also the result of
delays in the Company securing adequate funding for the manufacturing and full
commercialization of the CryoPort Express®.
Cost of
sales. Cost of sales for the
three month period ended September 30, 2009 increased $42,314 (31%) to $177,267
from $134,953 for the three month period
ended September 30, 2008 primarily as the result of increased fixed overhead
manufacturing costs which resulted from the Company’s discontinuation of the
reusable shippers and refocus of manufacturing operation for the CryoPort
Express® System. During both periods, cost of sales exceeded sales
due to fixed manufacturing costs and plant underutilization.
Gross loss. Gross loss for the
three month period ended September 30, 2009 increased by $39,818 (31%) to
$168,789 compared to $128,971 for the three month period ended September 30,
2008. The increase in gross loss is due to low
revenues and increased fixed overhead manufacturing costs which resulted from
the refocus of the Company’s manufacturing operations as discussed above and
plant under utilization.
36
Selling, general and administrative
expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $498
(0.1%) to $779,193 for the three month period ended September 30, 2009 as
compared to $779,691 for the three month period ended September 30, 2008 due
primarily to a $1,420 (0.2%) decrease in general and administrative expenses
from $686,944 for the three month period ended September 30, 2008 to $685,524
for the three month period ended September 30, 2009 and by a $922 (1%) increase
in sales and marketing expenses from $92,747 for the three month period ended
September 30, 2008 to $93,669 for the three month period ended September 30,
2009. The decrease in general and administrative
expenses was due to decrease in consulting fees. These decreases in
general and administrative expenses are due to the Company’s efforts to minimize
overall costs and diversion of resources to the focus on market
development and sales ramp up of the CryoPort Express®
System.
Research and development expenses.
Research and development expenses decreased by $12,387 (12%) to $93,066
for the three month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to $105,453 for
the three month period ended September 30, 2008. Prior year expenses included consulting costs associated
with software development for the web based system to be used with the CryoPort
Express® One-Way Shipper, and to other research and development activity related
to the CryoPort Express® One-Way Shipper System, as the Company strove to
develop improvements in both the manufacturing processes and product materials
for the purpose of achieving additional product cost
efficiencies.
Interest expense. Interest
expense increased $951,960 to $1,610,059 for the three month period ended
September 30, 2009 as compared to $658,099 for the three month period ended
September 30, 2008. This increase was due to
$1,468,879 of amortized debt discount, $17,675 of amortized financing fees, and
$123,506 of accrued interest, primarily related to the convertible debentures
issued in October 2007 and May 2008, and the Private Placement Debentures that
were issued during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2009. These increases
were partially offset by a reduction in interest expense for related party notes
payable and notes payable to officers as the result of the payments made against
the principal note balances.
Interest income. The Company
recorded interest income of $2,233 for the three month period ended September
30, 2009 as compared to $11,194 for the three month period ended September 30,
2008. Prior year interest income
included the impact of increased cash balances related to the funds received in
connection with the convertible debentures issued in October 2007 and May
2008.
Change in fair value of
derivative liabilities. The Company recognized a loss on the change in
fair market value of derivatives of $4,535,848 during the three months ended
September 30, 2009 compared to $0 in the three months ended September 30,
2008. The loss was due to a change in accounting principle, which
resulted in a reclassification of the fair value of warrants and embedded
conversion features from equity to derivative liabilities that are marked to
fair value at each reporting period. The impact of the change in
accounting principle and change in market value of the derivative liabilities
during the current year resulted in the recognition of a loss (see Note 2 to the
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements).
Gain on Extinguishment of Debt.
The Company incurred a gain on extinguishment of debt of $91,727 during
the three months ended September 30, 2008 as the result of the August 29, 2008
Amendment of the October Debentures which provided for an increase of $866,202
in the principal balance of the October 2007 Debentures for the interest that
would have been paid September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2008 and for 15% of the
aforementioned interest and the outstanding principal as of the date of the
amendment. The gain consists of a combination of the $866,202
increase in principal offset by the $899,004 increase in the unamortized
discount balance and the previously accrued interest of $58,925 related to the
October 2007 Debentures to reflect the present value of the debentures as of
August 29, 2008 (see Note 8 of the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements). There was no gain or loss on extinguishment of debt
during the three months ended September 30, 2009.
37
Net Loss. As a result of the
factors described above, the net loss for the three months ended September 30,
2009 increased by $5,617,029 to $7,186,322 or ($0.16) per share
compared to $1,569,293 or ($0.04) per share for the three months ended September
30, 2008. Loss from operations for the three months ended September
30, 2009 increased $26,933 to $1,041,048 compared to $1,014,115 for the three
months ended September 30, 2008.
Six
months ended September 30, 2009 compared to six months ended September 30,
2008:
Net sales. During the six
months ended September 30, 2009, the Company generated $22,181 from shipper
sales compared to revenues of $19,406 in the same period of the prior year, an
increase of $2,775 (14%). The low
revenues in both years was primarily due to the Company’s shift initiated in
mid-2006 in its sales and marketing focus from the reusable shipper product
line. The Company discontinued sales of the reusable shippers to
allow resources to focus on further development and launch of the CryoPort
Express® System and its introduction into the biopharmaceutical industry sector
during fiscal 2009, which resulted in the slight increase in sales year over
year. The slow increase in product sales was the also the result of
delays in the Company securing adequate funding for the manufacturing and full
commercialization of the CryoPort Express®.
Cost of sales. Cost
of sales for the six month period ended September 30, 2009 increased $73,113
(29%) to $326,444 from $253,331 for the six month period ended September 30,
2008 primarily as the result of increased fixed
overhead manufacturing costs which resulted from the Company’s discontinuation
of the reusable shippers and refocus of manufacturing operation for the CryoPort
Express® System. During both periods, cost of sales exceeded sales
due to fixed manufacturing costs and plant underutilization
Gross loss. Gross loss for the
six month period ended September 30, 2009 increased by $70,338 (30%) to $304,263
compared to $233,925 for the six month period ended September 30, 2008 increase in gross loss is due to low revenues and
increased fixed overhead manufacturing costs which resulted from the refocus of
the Company’s manufacturing operations as discussed above and plant under
utilization.
Selling, general and administrative
expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by
$167,771 (13%) to $1,507,502 for the six month period ended September 30, 2009
as compared to $1,339,731 for the six month period ended September 30, 2008 due
primarily to a $189,136 (17%) increase in general and administrative expenses
from $1,124,148 for the six month period ended September 30, 2008 to $1,313,284
for the six month period ended September 30, 2009 and by a $21,365 (10%)
decrease in sales and marketing expenses from $215,583 for the six month period
ended September 30, 2008 to $194,218 for the six month period ended September
30, 2009. The increase in general and
administrative expenses was due to increases in legal and accounting fees,
consulting fees and travel expenses. The increase in legal fees was
associated with the Company’s strategic partnering activities and debt
restructuring. The decrease in selling expenses was primarily related
to a decrease in advertising and promotional costs, consulting and travel
costs due to a reduction over prior year costs for additional market
research, product development and the development of customer relationships for
the commercialization of the CryoPort Express® System. These increases in
general and administrative expenses were partially offset by the Company’s
efforts to minimize overall costs and diversion of resources to the
focus on market development and sales ramp up of the CryoPort Express®
System.
38
Research and development expenses.
Research and development expenses decreased by $35,453 (16%) to $180,791
for the six month period ended September 30, 2009 as compared to $216,244 for
the six month period ended September 30, 2008. Prior year expenses included consulting costs associated
with software development for the web based system to be used with the CryoPort
Express® One-Way Shipper, and to other research and development activity related
to the CryoPort Express® One-Way Shipper System, as the Company strove to
develop improvements in both the manufacturing processes and product materials
for the purpose of achieving additional product cost
efficiencies.
Interest expense. Interest
expense increased $2,929,388 to $4,143,256 for the six month period ended
September 30, 2009 as compared to $1,213,868 for the six month period ended
September 30, 2008. This increase was due to
$3,737,569 of amortized debt discount, $25,579 of amortized financing fees, and
$380,108 of accrued interest, primarily related to the convertible debentures
issued in October 2007, May 2008 and the Private Placement Debentures that were
issued during the six month period ended September 30, 2009. These increases
were partially offset by a reduction in interest expense for related party notes
payable and notes payable to officers as the result of the payments made against
the principal note balances.
Interest income. The Company
recorded interest income of $3,714 for the six month period ended September 30,
2009 as compared to $24,008 for the six month period ended September 30, 2008.
Prior year interest income included the impact of
increased cash balances related to the funds received in connection with the
convertible debentures issued in October 2007 and May 2008.
Gain (Loss) on extinguishment of
debt. The Company incurred a loss on extinguishment of debt of $6,902,941
during the six months ended September 30, 2008 as the result of the April 30,
2008 Amendment of the October Debentures which provided for a six month deferral
of principal payments. The loss consists of a combination of the
$5,858,344 increase in the fair market value of warrants issued in connection
with the October 2007 Debentures as a result of the increase in the number of
shares to be purchased under each of the October Warrants and to the decrease in
the Exercise Price of October 2007 Warrants from $0.90, $0.92 and
$1.60 to $0.60 each, the elimination of the April 30, 2008 unamortized balance
of deferred financing costs of $312,197 and the $732,400 reduction in the
unamortized discount balance related to the October 2007 Debentures to reflect
the present value of the debentures as of April 30, 2008 (see Note 8 of the
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements). There was
no loss on extinguishment of debt during the six months ended September 30,
2009.
The
Company incurred a gain on extinguishment of debt of $91,727 during the six
months ended September 30, 2008 as the result of the August 29, 2008 Amendment
of the October Debentures which provided for an increase of $866,202 in the
principal balance of the October Debentures for the interest that would have
been paid September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2008 and for 15% of the
aforementioned interest and the outstanding principal as of the date of the
amendment. The gain consists of a combination of the $866,202
increase in principal offset by the $899,004 increase in the unamortized
discount balance and the previously accrued interest of $58,925 related to
the October Debentures to reflect the present value of the debentures as of
August 29, 2008 (see Note 8 of the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements). There was no gain on extinguishment of debt in the six
months ended September 30, 2009.
Net loss. As a result of the
factors described above, the net loss for the six months ended September 30,
2009 decreased by $2,255,729 to $7,536,445 or ($0.17) per share
compared to $9,791,774 or ($0.24) per share for the six months ended September
30, 2008. Loss from operations for the six months ended September 30,
2009 increased $202,656 to $1,992,556 compared to $1,789,900 for the six months
ended September 30, 2008.
39
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
As of
September 30, 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,120,758 and negative
working capital of $22,902,096. The Company’s working capital deficit
at September 30, 2009 included $18,404,578 of derivative liabilities, the
balance of which represented the fair value of warrants and embedded conversion
features related to the Company’s convertible debentures and were reclassed from
equity during the six months ended September 30, 2009. As of March
31, 2009, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $249,758 and negative
working capital of $3,693,015.
Net cash
used in operating activities was $1,145,497 for the six months ended September
30, 2009, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $1,584,022 for
the six months ended September 30, 2008. Net loss for the six months
ended September 30, 2009 of $ 7,536,045 included a non-cash loss of $1,401,550
due to the change in valuation of our derivative liabilities and non-cash
expenses of $3,737,569 due primarily to discount amortization related to our
convertible debt instruments. Offsetting the cash impact of our net
operating loss (excluding non-cash items) was an increase in accrued interest
payable of $278,325 primarily due to our Private Placement Debentures and
an increase in accounts payable of $175,268 due primarily to increased general
and administrative expenses. Net cash used in operating activities of
$1,584,022 for the six months ended September 30, 2008 reflected a net operating
loss of $9,791,774, which included a non-cash loss on extinguishment of debt of
$6,811,214 and non-cash expenses of $958,856 due primarily to discount
amortization related to our convertible debt instruments. In addition
to our net operating loss and related cash impact, inventories increased by
$299,393 and were offset by the positive cash impact of an increase in accrued
interest payable related to our May 2008 debenture.
Net cash
used in investing activities for the six months ended September 30, 2009 was
$34,139 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $53,676 for the
comparable period in 2008. Net cash used in investing activities for
the six months ended September 30, 2009 primarily reflected payment of trademark
costs. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended
September 30, 2008 was comprised primarily of fixed asset
purchases.
Net cash
provided by financing activities for the six months ended September 30, 2009 was
$2,050,636 and was primarily related to proceeds from our Private Placement
Debentures of $1,321,500, which were partially offset by payment of deferred
financing costs and payments on our related party notes payable. Net
cash provided by financing activities of $625,713 for the six months ended
September 30, 2008 reflected proceeds from our May 2008 Debentures of
$1,062,500, which were partially offset by payments for financing costs,
repayments on convertible and related party notes payable.
As
discussed in Note 2 of the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements, there exists substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to
continue as a going concern. The Company will need to raise
additional capital through one or more methods, including but not limited to,
issuing additional equity, in order to fund our working capital needs and
complete the commercial launch of our CryoPort Express® System. In
this regard on October 6, 2009 the Company filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-162350)
for a possible underwritten public offering of units, each unit to consist of
one share of common stock and warrant to purchase one share of common
stock. Management cannot assure you that this contemplated offering
will be consummated, or if consummated, whether the proceeds from such offering
will be sufficient to fund the Company’s planned operations.
Recent Accounting
Pronouncements
In
May 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting
Standards Codification 855-10, Subsequent Events, or ASC 855-10, which
establishes general standards for accounting and disclosure of events that occur
after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or
are available to be issued. The pronouncement requires the disclosure of the
date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for
that date, whether that date represents the date the financial statements were
issued or were available to be issued. The Company adopted ASC 855-10 and
evaluated subsequent events through the issuance date of the financial
statements. ASC 855-10 did not have a material impact on our consolidated
financial statements.
In
June 2009, the FASB issued ASC 105-10, The FASB Accounting Standards
Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or
ASC 105-10. ASC 105-10 became the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized
by the FASB to be applied by nongovernment entities. It also modified the GAAP
hierarchy to include only two levels of GAAP; authoritative and
non-authoritative. We adopted ASC 105-10 for the reporting in its 2009 second
quarter. The adoption did not have a significant impact on its consolidated
balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations or consolidated statements
of cash flows.

Material
Weakness Previously Disclosed.
As
discussed in Item 4T or our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter
ended June 30, 2009, a material weakness was identified and determined to have
existed as of June 30, 2009. As was also noted, we have concluded
that this material weakness had been remediated prior to September 30,
2009.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and
Procedures.
The Company carried out an evaluation under the
supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including
the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer
(“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("the Exchange Act")). Based upon that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded
that as of September 30, 2009, our disclosure controls and procedures were
effective in timely alerting them to the material information relating to the
Company (or the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in
the Company’s periodic filings with the SEC, subject to the various limitation
on effectiveness set forth below under the heading “LIMITATIONS ON THE
EFFECTIVENESS OF INTERNAL CONTROLS,” such that the information relating to the
Company, required to be disclosed in SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and
forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management,
including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure.
Changes
in internal control over financial reporting.
Our
principal executive officer and principal financial officer also evaluated
whether any change in our internal control over financial reporting, as such
term is defined under Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the
Exchange Act, occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter covered by this
report that has materially affected, or is likely to materially affect, our
internal control over financial reporting. Based on their evaluation, our
principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the
following measures have been taken to remediate our identified material
weaknesses include:
|
·
|
Implemented
additional review and approval
procedures
|
|
·
|
Supplemented
internal staff expertise by consulting with independent, third party
experts regarding accounting treatment of unusual or non-routine
transactions, and the impact of the adoption of new accounting
pronouncements,
|
|
·
|
Revised
and enhanced the review process for unusual and acquisition related
transactions;
|
LIMITATIONS
ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF INTERNAL CONTROLS
The
Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our
disclosure controls and procedures on our internal control over financial
reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. An internal
control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only
reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system
are met. Further, the design of the control system must reflect the fact that
there are resource constraints, and the benefits 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 the
realities 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 internal 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,
and/or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may
deteriorate.
