Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Nature of the Business

ENDRA Life Sciences Inc. (“ENDRA” or the “Company”) is developing technology for increasing the capabilities of clinical diagnostic ultrasound, to broaden patient access to the safe diagnosis and treatment of a number of significant medical conditions in circumstances where expensive X-ray computed tomography (“CT”) and magnetic resonance imaging (“MRI”) technology is unavailable or impractical.

ENDRA was incorporated on July 18, 2007 as a Delaware corporation.

ENDRA Life Sciences Canada Inc. was organized under the laws of Ontario, Canada on July 6, 2017, and is wholly owned by the Company.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Management makes estimates that affect certain accounts including deferred income tax assets, accrued expenses, fair value of equity instruments and reserves for any other commitments or contingencies. Any adjustments applied to estimates are recognized in the period in which such adjustments are determined.

Principles of Consolidation

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiary and/or entities as of reporting period ending date(s) and for the reporting period(s) then ended. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2019. The balance sheet at December 31, 2018 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in ENDRA Life Sciences Inc. annual financial statements for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 11, 2019.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all cash on hand and in banks, including accounts in book overdraft positions, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of one year or less, when purchased, to be cash. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had no cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and periodically evaluates the credit worthiness of the financial institutions and has determined the credit exposure to be negligible.

Inventory

The Company’s inventory is stated at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value, with cost primarily determined on a weighted-average cost basis on the first-in, first-out method. The Company periodically determines whether a reserve should be taken for devaluation or obsolescence of inventory.

Capitalization of Fixed Assets

The Company capitalizes expenditures related to property and equipment, subject to a minimum rule, that have a useful life greater than one year for: (1) assets purchased; (2) existing assets that are replaced, improved or the useful lives have been extended; or (3) all land, regardless of cost. Acquisitions of new assets, additions, replacements and improvements (other than land) costing less than the minimum rule in addition to maintenance and repair costs, including any planned major maintenance activities, are expensed as incurred.

Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC Topic 606”). This standard provides a single set of guidelines for revenue recognition to be used across all industries and requires additional disclosures. The updated guidance introduces a five-step model to achieve its core principal of the entity recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted the updated guidance effective January 1, 2018 using the full retrospective method. The new standard did not have a material impact on its financial position and results of operations, as it did not change the manner or timing of recognizing revenue.

Under ASC Topic 606, in order to recognize revenue, the Company is required to identify an approved contract with commitments to perform respective obligations, identify rights of each party in the transaction regarding goods to be transferred, identify the payment terms for the goods transferred, verify that the contract has commercial substance and verify that collection of substantially all consideration is probable. The adoption of ASC Topic 606 did not have an impact on the Company’s operations or cash flows.

Research and Development Costs

The Company follows ASC Subtopic 730-10, “Research and Development”. Research and development costs are charged to the statement of operations as incurred. During the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred $1,468,441 and $1,162,911 of expenses related to research and development costs, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred $4,546,746 and $3,671,490 of expenses related to research and development costs, respectively.

Net Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

The Company computes earnings per share under ASC Subtopic 260-10, “Earnings Per Share” (“ASC 260-10”). Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to the common stockholders (the numerator) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding (the denominator) during the reporting periods. Diluted loss per share is computed by increasing the denominator by the weighted average number of additional shares that could have been outstanding from securities convertible into common stock (using the “treasury stock” method), unless their effect on net loss per share is anti-dilutive. There were 7,752,101 and 3,900,939 potentially dilutive shares, which include outstanding common stock options, warrants, and convertible notes, as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

The potential shares, which are excluded from the determination of basic and diluted net loss per share as their effect is anti-dilutive, are as follows:

	September 30, 2019	December 31, 2018
Options to purchase common stock	1,539,846	1,272,911
Warrants to purchase common stock	4,538,566	2,628,028
Shares issuable upon conversion of notes	1,598,466	-
Potential equivalent shares excluded	7,676,878	3,900,939

Fair Value Measurements

Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments require disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value.

In accordance with ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” the Company measures certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

● Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

● Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

● Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The fair value of notes payable and convertible notes approximates their fair values since the current interest rates and terms on these obligations are the same as prevailing market rates.

Share-based Compensation

The Company’s 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”) permits the grant of stock options and other share-based awards to its employees, consultants and non-employee members of the board of directors. Each January 1 the pool of shares available for issuance under the Omnibus Plan automatically increases by an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the number of shares necessary such that the aggregate number of shares available under the Omnibus Plan equals 25% of the number of fully-diluted outstanding shares on the increase date (assuming the conversion of all outstanding shares of preferred stock and other outstanding convertible securities and exercise of all outstanding options and warrants to purchase shares) and (ii) if the board of directors takes action to set a lower amount, the amount determined by the board. On January 1, 2019, the pool of shares available for issuance under the Omnibus Plan automatically increased from 1,345,074 shares to 2,649,378 shares.

The Company records share-based compensation in accordance with the provisions of the Share-based Compensation Topic of the FASB Codification. The guidance requires the use of option-pricing models that require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the option’s expected life and the price volatility of the underlying stock. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model, and the resulting charge is expensed using the straight-line attribution method over the vesting period. The Company has elected to use the calculated value method to account for the options it issued in 2017 (prior to commencement on June 28, 2017 of public trading in the Company’s common stock). Under the Share-based Compensation Topic of the FASB Codification, a nonpublic entity that is unable to estimate the expected volatility of the price of its underlying shares may measure awards based on a “calculated value,” which substitutes the volatility of appropriate public companies (representative of the company’s size and industry) as a benchmark for the volatility of the entity’s own share price. The Company has used the historical closing values of these companies to estimate volatility, which was calculated to be 90%, for periods prior to June 28, 2017, when there was no active market for the Company’s common stock.

Stock compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of share-based awards that were expected to vest during the period adjusted for estimated forfeitures. The estimated fair value of grants of stock options and warrants to non-employees of the Company is charged to expense, if applicable, in the financial statements. These options vest in the same manner as the employee options granted under the stock incentive plan as described above.

Debt Discount

The Company determines if its outstanding convertible promissory notes should be accounted for as liability or equity under ASC Topic 480, Liabilities — Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. ASC Topic 480 applies to certain contracts involving a company’s own equity, and requires that issuers classify the following freestanding financial instruments as liabilities: mandatorily redeemable financial instruments, obligations that require or may require repurchase of the issuer’s equity shares by transferring assets (e.g., written put options and forward purchase contracts), and certain obligations where at inception the monetary value of the obligation is based solely or predominantly on:

● A fixed monetary amount known at inception (for example, a payable settleable with a variable number of the issuer’s equity shares with an issuance date fair value equal to a fixed dollar amount);

● Variations in something other than the fair value of the issuer’s equity shares (for example, a financial instrument indexed to the S&P 500 and settleable with a variable number of the issuer’s equity shares); or

● Variations inversely related to changes in the fair value of the issuer’s equity shares (for example, a written put that could be net share settled).

If the Company determines the instrument meets the guidance under ASC Topic 480, the instrument is accounted for as a liability with a respective debt discount. The Company has previously recorded debt discounts in connection with raising funds through the issuance of promissory notes. These costs are amortized to noncash interest expense over the life of the debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs, a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed. See Note 7, Convertible Notes, for further discussion on the Company’s accounting treatment for the outstanding notes.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive revenue recognition standard that supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP and replaces it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. Under ASU 2014-09, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services and is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The FASB has recently issued ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10, ASU 2016-11, ASU 2016-12, and ASU 2016-20, all of which clarify certain implementation guidance within ASU 2014-09. ASU 2014-09 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The standard can be adopted either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective method), or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application (the cumulative catch-up transition method). The Company has reviewed ASU 2014-09 and using the full retrospective method has determined that its adoption has had no impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company adopted the provisions of this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2018.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to record a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. ASU 2016-02 is effective for all interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements. The Company evaluated the impact that the application of the new standard has on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, and determined that is should record a total lease liability of $424,210, with a corresponding right of use asset valued at $420,488. The Company adopted the provisions of this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) Scope of Modification Accounting. The amendments in ASU 2017-09 provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. The adoption of ASU 2017-09, which is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and for interim periods within those annual periods, did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statement presentation or disclosures.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC did not or in management’s opinion will not have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

Note 3 – Going Concern

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has limited commercial experience and had a cumulative net loss from inception to September 30, 2019 of $36,188,366. The Company had working capital of $1,122,373 as of September 30, 2019. The Company has not established an ongoing source of revenue sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2019 have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. However, the Company’s cash resources will likely be insufficient to meet its anticipated needs during the next twelve months. The Company will require additional financing to fund its future planned operations, including research and development and commercialization of its products.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it establishes a revenue stream and becomes profitable. Management’s plans to continue as a going concern include raising additional capital through sales of equity securities and borrowing. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. If the Company is not able to obtain the necessary additional financing on a timely basis, the Company will be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate one or more of the Company’s research and development activities or commercialization efforts or perhaps even cease the operation of its business. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. There is substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 4 – Inventory

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, inventory consisted of raw materials to be used in the assembly of a TAEUS system. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had no orders pending for the sale of a TAEUS system.

Note 5 – Fixed Assets

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, fixed assets consisted of the following:

	September 30, 2019	December 31, 2018

Accrued interest on senior secured convertible promissory notes	44,292	-
Insurance premium financing	62,350	22,508
Total	$1,198,488	$974,583

Note 7 – Convertible Notes

On July 26, 2019 (the “Closing Date”), the Company conducted a private placement offering (the “Offering”) in which the Company sold senior secured convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) and warrants exercisable for shares of the Company’s common stock (the "Warrants" and, together with the Notes, the "Securities") to accredited investors for approximately $2.8 million of gross proceeds. The gross proceeds covered the purchase of $2,587,895 aggregate principal amount of Notes and the Warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 1,736,843 shares of common stock. The net proceeds to the Company were approximately $2,490,501 million, after deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses.

The Company sold the Securities pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated July 26, 2019, between the Company and each Investor. Each Note bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum until maturity on April 26, 2020 (the “Maturity Date”). Interest will be paid in arrears on the outstanding principal amount on the three month anniversary of the issuance of the Notes and each three month period thereafter and on the Maturity Date. Holders of Notes (“Noteholders”) are entitled to convert principal and accrued, unpaid interest on the Notes into shares of common stock. The Notes are convertible into common stock at a conversion price per share equal to $1.49 and were initially convertible into 1,736,843 shares of common stock.

The Notes provide for customary events of default. In the case of an event of default with respect to the Notes, each Noteholder may declare its Note to be due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, interest on the Notes will automatically be increased to 18% until the default is cured.

Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock for an exercise price per share equal to $1.49. The Warrants are exercisable for an aggregate of 1,736,843 shares of common stock commencing immediately upon issuance and expire July 26, 2022. The Warrants provide for cashless exercise and customary anti-dilution protection. The terms of the Placement Agent Warrant (as defined below) are the same as those of the Warrants.

National Securities Corporation (the “Placement Agent”) acted as placement agent in the Offering pursuant to a Placement Agent Agreement, dated July 9, 2019 (the “Placement Agent Agreement”). Pursuant to the Placement Agent Agreement, the Company paid to the Placement Agent a commission of 10% of the gross proceeds from the Offering, reimbursed $30,000 of the Placement Agent’s expenses and issued to the Placement Agent a warrant exercisable for 173,685 shares of common stock (the “Placement Agent Warrant”).

Certain of the Company's debt and equity instruments include embedded derivatives that require bifurcation from the host contract under the provisions of ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging. The estimated fair value of the derivative warrant instruments was calculated using a Black Scholes valuation model. At inception, the aggregate relative fair value of the 1,910,538 warrants issued to the investor was determined to be $1,993,714 using the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model with the following average assumptions: (i) volatility rate of 111%, (ii) discount rate of 0%, (iii) zero expected dividend yield, and (iv) expected life of three years. Out of which $1,126,138 was recorded as debt discount upon issuance using allocation of proceeds. At the issuance of these notes, the effective conversion price was analyzed at $0.84 and the market price of the shares on the date of conversion was $1.54 per share, and the Company recognized aggregate beneficial conversion features of $1,440,638. $1,147,257 was recorded as debt discount upon issuance using allocation of proceeds. As a result, the Company recorded a note discount of $2,587,895 to account for the funding cost of $314,500, relative fair values of the warrants and the notes’ beneficial conversion features which will be amortized as interest over the terms of the notes or in full upon conversion of the notes. During three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company amortized $728,417 of such discount to interest expense, and the unamortized discount as of September 30, 2019 was $1,859,478.

Note 8 – Capital Stock

At September 30, 2019, the authorized capital of the Company consisted of 60,000,000 shares of capital stock, consisting of 50,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company issued 94,233 shares of its common stock upon the conversion of $140,406 of principal and accrued interest on the Notes.

As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there were 7,516,875 and 7,422,642 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and no preferred stock outstanding, respectively.

Note 9 – Stock Options and Warrants

Stock options are awarded to the Company’s employees, consultants and non-employee members of the board of directors under the 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan and are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant. The aggregate fair value of these stock options granted by the Company during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was determined to be $769,451 using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model based on the following assumptions: (i) volatility rate of 103% to 124%, (ii) discount rate of 0%, (iii) zero expected dividend yield, and (iv) expected life of 7 to 10 years. A summary of option activity under the Company’s stock options as of September 30, 2019, and changes during the nine months then ended is presented below:

	Number of Options	Weighted Average Exercise Price	Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (Years)

Note 10 – Commitments & Contingencies

Office Lease

Effective January 1, 2015, the Company entered into an office lease agreement with Green Court, LLC, a Michigan limited liability company, for approximately 3,657 rentable square feet of space, for the initial monthly rent of $5,986, which commenced on January 1, 2015 for an initial term of 60 months. On October 10, 2017 this lease was amended increasing the rentable square feet of space to 3,950 and the monthly rent to $7,798. On July 16, 2019, the Company exercised its option to extend the lease for an additional 5 years past the initial term originally expiring on December 31, 2019, such that the lease now expires on December 31, 2024.

The Company records the lease asset and lease liability at the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The lease typically do not provide an implicit rate; therefore, the Company uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate at the time of lease commencement to discount the present value of lease payments. The Company’s discount rate for operating leases at September 30, 2019 was 10%. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term to the extent that collection is considered probable. As a result, the Company has been recognizing rents as they become payable based on the adoption of ASC 842. The weighted-average remaining lease term is 5.17 years.

As of September 30, 2019, the maturities of operating leases liabilities are as follows:

	Operating Leases
Remaining for 2019	$23,977
2020	98,790
2021	101,752
2022	104,793
2023	107,954
2024 and beyond	111,192
Total	$548,458
Less: amount representing interest	(124,248)
Present value of future minimum lease payments	424,210
Less: current obligations under leases	63,295
Long-term lease obligations	$358,915

For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred rent expenses of $19,251 and $27,332, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred rent expenses of $71,758 and $79,580, respectively.

We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

Overview

We are leveraging experience with pre-clinical enhanced ultrasound devices to develop technology for increasing the capabilities of clinical diagnostic ultrasound, to broaden patient access to the safe diagnosis and treatment of a number of significant medical conditions in circumstances where expensive X-ray computed tomography (“CT”) and magnetic resonance imaging (“MRI”) technology is unavailable or impractical.

In 2010, we began marketing and selling our Nexus 128 system, which combined light-based thermoacoustics and ultrasound to address the imaging needs of researchers studying disease models in pre-clinical applications. Building on this expertise in thermoacoustics, we have developed a next-generation technology platform — Thermo Acoustic Enhanced Ultrasound, or TAEUS — which is intended to enhance the capability of clinical ultrasound technology and support the diagnosis and treatment of a number of significant medical conditions that currently require the use of expensive CT or MRI imaging or where imaging is not practical using existing technology. We ceased production of our Nexus 128 system as of January 1, 2019 and stopped providing service support and parts for all existing Nexus 128 systems as of July 1, 2019 in order to focus our resources on the development of our TAEUS technology.

Unlike the near-infrared light pulses used in our legacy Nexus 128 system, our TAEUS technology uses radio frequency (“RF”) pulses to stimulate tissues, using a small fraction of the energy that would be transmitted into the body during an MRI scan. The use of RF energy allows our TAEUS technology to penetrate deep into tissue, enabling the imaging of human anatomy at depths equivalent to those of conventional ultrasound. The RF pulses are absorbed by tissue and converted into ultrasound signals, which are detected by an external ultrasound receiver and a digital acquisition system that is part of the TAEUS system. The detected ultrasound is processed into images using our proprietary algorithms and displayed to complement conventional gray-scale ultrasound images.

We expect that the first-generation TAEUS application will be a standalone ultrasound accessory designed to cost-effectively quantify fat in the liver and stage progression of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (“NAFLD”), which can only be achieved today with impractical surgical biopsies or MRI scans. Subsequent TAEUS offerings are expected to be implemented via a second generation hardware platform that can run multiple clinical software applications that we will offer TAEUS users for a one-time licensing fee – adding ongoing customer value to the TAEUS platform and a growing software revenue stream for our Company.

In April 2016, we entered into a Collaborative Research Agreement with General Electric Company, acting through its GE Healthcare business unit and the GE Global Research Center (collectively, “GE Healthcare”). Under the terms of the agreement, GE Healthcare has agreed to assist us in our efforts to commercialize our TAEUS technology for use in a fatty liver application by, among other things, providing equipment and technical advice, and facilitating introductions to GE Healthcare clinical ultrasound customers. In return for this assistance, we have agreed to afford GE Healthcare certain rights of first offer with respect to manufacturing and licensing rights for the target application. More specifically, we have agreed that, prior to commercially releasing our NAFLD TAEUS application, we will offer to negotiate an exclusive ultrasound manufacturer relationship with GE Healthcare for a period of at least one year of commercial sales. The commercial sales would involve, within our sole discretion, either our Company commercially selling GE Healthcare ultrasound systems as the exclusive ultrasound system with our TAEUS fatty liver application embedded, or GE Healthcare being the exclusive ultrasound manufacturer to sell ultrasound systems with our TAEUS fatty liver application embedded. The agreement is subject to termination by either party upon not less than 60 days’ notice. On January 30, 2018, we and GE Healthcare entered into an amendment to our agreement, extending its term by 21 months to January 22, 2020.

In November 2017, we contracted with the Centre for Imaging Technology Commercialization (“CIMTEC”) to initiate human studies, through Canada-based Robarts Research Institute, with our TAEUS device targeting NAFLD. In October 2018, we received an Investigational Testing Authorization from Health Canada to commence the first human studies with our TAEUS clinical system targeting NAFLD, guiding our algorithm development, and comparing our technology to MRI. The feasibility study, the first of several planned human studies, is being conducted in collaboration with Robarts Research Institute in London, Canada. We reported our completion of this study on September 26, 2019. The data collected from the study, including additional usability inputs, will be included in our TAEUS liver device technical file submission for device CE Mark, which we anticipate in the first half of 2020.

Each of our TAEUS platform applications will require regulatory approvals before we are able to sell or license the application. Based on certain factors, such as the installed base of ultrasound systems, availability of other imaging technologies, such as CT and MRI, economic strength and applicable regulatory requirements, we intend to seek initial approval of our applications for sale in the European Union and the United States, followed by China.

Financial Operations Overview

Revenue

To date our revenue has been generated by the placement and sale of our discontinued Nexus 128 thermoacoustic imaging systems for use in pre-clinical applications, and related service revenue. No revenue has been generated by our TAEUS technology, which is currently in the product development stage.

Cost of Goods Sold

Our cost of goods sold is related to our direct costs associated with the development and shipment of our discontinued Nexus 128 systems placed in pre-clinical settings, and costs associated with service provided for these systems. No cost of goods sold has been generated by our TAEUS technology, which is currently in the product development stage

Research and Development Expenses

Our research and development expenses primarily include wages, fees and equipment for the development of our TAEUS technology platform and the proposed applications. Additionally, we incur certain costs associated with the protection of our products and inventions through a combination of patents, licenses, applications and disclosures.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of headcount and consulting costs, and marketing and tradeshow expenses. Currently, our marketing efforts are through our website and attendance of key industry meetings and conferences. In connection with the commercialization of our TAEUS applications, we expect to build a small sales and marketing team to train and support global ultrasound distributors, as well as execute traditional marketing activities such as promotional materials, electronic media and participation in industry events and conferences.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related expenses for our management and personnel, and professional fees, such as accounting, consulting and legal.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Use of Estimates

Share-based Compensation

Our 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”) permits the grant of share options and shares to our employees, consultants and non-employee members of our board of directors. Each January 1 the pool of shares available for issuance under the Omnibus Plan automatically increases by an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the number of shares necessary such that the aggregate number of shares available under the Omnibus Plan equals 25% of the number of fully-diluted outstanding shares on the increase date (assuming the conversion of all outstanding shares of preferred stock and other outstanding convertible securities and exercise of all outstanding options and warrants to purchase shares) and (ii) if the board of directors takes action to set a lower amount, the amount determined by the board. On January 1, 2019, the pool of shares available for issuance under the Omnibus Plan automatically increased from 1,345,074 shares to 2,649,378 shares.

We record share-based compensation in accordance with the provisions of the Share-based Compensation Topic of the FASB Codification. The guidance requires the use of option-pricing models that require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the option’s expected life and the price volatility of the underlying stock. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model which uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the common stock options, and future dividends, and the resulting charge is expensed using the straight-line attribution method over the vesting period.

Stock compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of share-based awards that were expected to vest during the period adjusted for estimated forfeitures. The estimated fair value of grants of stock options and warrants to non-employees is charged to expense, if applicable, in the financial statements.

Debt Discount and Detachable Debt-Related Warrants

The Company accounts for debt discounts originating in connection with conversion features that remain embedded in the related notes in accordance with ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options. These costs are classified on the consolidated balance sheet as a direct deduction from the debt liability. The Company amortizes these costs over the term of its debt agreements as interest expense-debt discount in the consolidated statement of operations. Debt discounts relate to the relative fair value of warrants issued in conjunction with the debt and are also recorded as a reduction to the debt balance and accreted over the expected term of the debt to interest expense.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

Revenue

We had no revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Cost of Goods Sold

There was no cost of goods sold for each of the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses were $1,468,441 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $1,162,911 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $305,530, or 26%. The costs include primarily wages, fees and equipment for the development of our TAEUS product line. Research and development expenses increased from the same period for the prior year due primarily to increased spending to develop TAEUS applications, which included expenses for our contracted development vendors.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses were $100,203 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $72,179 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $28,024, or 39%. The increase was primarily due to additional headcount and pre-selling activities for our TAEUS product line. Currently, our marketing efforts are through our website and attendance of key industry meetings. We expect that our future clinical business will involve hiring and training additional staff to support our sales efforts. As we seek to complete the development and commercialization of our TAEUS applications, subject to available funds, we intend to build a small sales and marketing team to train and support global ultrasound distributors, as well as execute traditional marketing activities such as promotional materials, electronic media and participation in industry conferences.

General and Administrative

Our general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2019 were $1,071,889, compared to $832,884 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $239,005, or 29%. Our wage and related expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2019 were $549,115, compared to $355,041 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Wage and related expenses in the three months ended September 30, 2019 included $58,731 for bonuses and $182,949 of stock compensation expense related to the issuance and vesting of options, compared to $43,125 for bonuses and $142,674 of stock compensation expense for the same period in 2018. Our professional fees for the three months ended September 30, 2019 were $382,657, compared to $332,636 for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Impairment of Inventory

During the three months ended September 30, 2018, we had a one time write down of inventory available for our Nexus 128 product of $287,541. There was no such expense during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Amortization of Debt Discount

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, we incurred non-cash expenses of $728,417 related to the amortization of debt discount incurred as result of our issuance of the convertible note and warrants issued in July 2019 (see Note 7, Convertible Notes). There was no such expense during the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Net Loss

As a result of the foregoing, for the three months ended September 30, 2019, we recorded a net loss of $3,413,562 compared to a net loss of $2,758,576 for the three months ended September 30, 2018.

Nine months Ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

Revenue

We had no revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $6,174 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The revenue was a result of service activity on our installed base of Nexus 128 pre-clinical systems. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we ceased production of our Nexus 128 system and announced our plan to stop providing service support and parts for all existing systems as of July 1, 2019, in order to focus our resources on the development of our TAEUS technology.

Cost of Goods Sold

There was no cost of goods sold for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses were $4,546,746 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $3,671,490 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $875,256, or 24%. The costs include primarily wages, fees and equipment for the development of our TAEUS product line. Research and development expenses increased from the same period for the prior year due primarily to increased spending to develop TAEUS applications, which included expenses for our contracted development vendors.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses were $245,364 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $220,713 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $24,651, or 11%. The increase was primarily due to additional headcount and pre-selling activities for our TAEUS product line. Currently, our marketing efforts are through our website and attendance of key industry meetings. We expect that our future clinical business will involve hiring and training additional staff to support our sales efforts. As we seek to complete the development and commercialization of our TAEUS applications, we intend to build a small sales and marketing team to train and support global ultrasound distributors, as well as execute traditional marketing activities such as promotional materials, electronic media and participation in industry conferences.

General and Administrative

Our general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 were $2,920,815, compared to $2,842,631 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $78,184, or 3%. Our wage and related expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 were $1,459,309, compared to $1,271,744 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Wage and related expenses in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, included $151,833 for bonuses and $533,691 of stock compensation expense related to the issuance and vesting of options, compared to $221,075 for bonuses and $469,716 of stock compensation expense for the same period in 2018. Our professional fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 were $1,074,963, compared to $1,185,775 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Impairment of Inventory

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we had a one time write down of inventory available for our Nexus 128 product of $287,541. There was no such expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Amortization of Debt Discount

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we incurred non-cash expenses of $728,417 related to the amortization of debt discount incurred as result of our issuance of the convertible note and warrants issued in July 2019 (see Note 7, Convertible Notes). There was no such expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Net Loss

As a result of the foregoing, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recorded a net loss of $8,496,670 compared to a net loss of $7,430,651 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

To date we have funded our operations through private and public sales of our securities. As of September 30, 2019, we had $2,275,302 in cash. We have completed the following:

●

In May 2017, we completed our initial public offering, raising net proceeds of approximately $8.6 million after deducting offering expenses of approximately $0.8 million in underwriting discounts, commissions and expenses and approximately $0.3 million in offering expenses payable by us.

●

In June 2018, we completed the placement of senior secured convertible promissory notes and warrants, raising net proceeds of approximately $935,000 after deducting offering expenses of approximately $142,000 payable by us.

●

On October 15, 2018, we completed an underwritten public offering of 1,477,750 shares of our common stock. The net proceeds from this offering were approximately $2.7 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses.

●

On November 13, 2018, we completed an underwritten public offering of 1,385,750 shares of our common stock. The net proceeds from this offering were approximately $4.9 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses. In connection with these underwritten public offerings, the promissory notes issued in June 2018 converted into common stock pursuant to their terms.

●

In July 2019, we completed a private placement of senior secured convertible promissory notes and warrants, raising net proceeds of approximately $2,490,501 after deducting offering expenses of approximately $314,500 payable by us. The promissory notes bear interest at a rate of 10% per annum until maturity on April 26, 2020.

We believe that cash on hand at September 30, 2019 will be sufficient to fund our current operations into the first quarter of 2020. However, we will need additional capital to execute our commercialization plan and if we do not raise additional capital in the next several months we will need to significantly slow or pause our business activities until such time as we are able to raise additional capital. We continue to evaluate and manage our capital needs to support our clinical, regulatory and operational activities and prepare for the results of our human studies data and EU commercialization. We are currently exploring potential financing options that may be available to us, including additional sales of our common stock. However, we have no commitments to obtain any additional funds, and there can be no assurance such funds will be available on acceptable terms or at all. If we are unable to obtain additional financing in a timely fashion and on terms acceptable to us, our financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected and we may not be able to continue operations or execute our stated commercialization plan.

The financial statements included in this Form 10-Q have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we incurred net losses of $8,496,670 and used cash in operations of $6,681,336. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the accompanying financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Operating Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we used $6,681,336 of cash in operating activities primarily as a result of our net loss of $8,496,670, which included non-cash charges for share-based compensation of $1,020,300, amortization of debt discount of $728,417, depreciation expenses of $59,673, and net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $6,944.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we used $5,800,054 of cash in operating activities primarily as a result of our net loss of $7,430,651 offset by share-based compensation of $1,060,012, depreciation and amortization expenses of $48,246, amortization of debt discount of $383,428, impairment of inventory of $287,541 and net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $(148,630).

Investing Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company used $5,238 in investing activities related to purchase of equipment.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company used $100,000 in investing activities related to purchase of equipment.

Financing Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company received $2,490,501 in financing activities in net proceeds from convertible notes.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company received $935,300 in financing activities in net proceeds from convertible notes.

Funding Requirements

We have not completed development of our TAEUS technology platform applications. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses for the foreseeable future. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we:

● advance the engineering design and development of our NAFLD TAEUS application;

● prepare regulatory filings required for marketing approval of our NAFLD TAEUS application in the European Union and the United States;

● seek to hire a small internal marketing team to engage and support channel partners and clinical customers for our NAFLD TAEUS application;

● commence marketing of our NAFLD TAEUS application;

● advance development of our other TAEUS applications; and

● add operational, financial and management information systems and personnel, including personnel to support our product development, planned commercialization efforts and our operation as a public company.

It is possible that we will not achieve the progress that we expect because the actual costs and timing of completing the development and regulatory approvals for a new medical device are difficult to predict and are subject to substantial risks and delays. We have no committed external sources of funds. We do not expect that our existing cash will be sufficient for us to complete the commercialization of our NAFLD TAEUS application or to complete the development of any other TAEUS application and we will need to raise substantial additional capital for those purposes. As a result, we will need to finance our future cash needs through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements or other financing alternatives. Our forecast of the period of time through which our financial resources will be adequate to support our operations is a forward-looking statement and involves risks and uncertainties, and actual results could vary as a result of a number of factors, including the factors discussed in the section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, entitled “Risk Factors”. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could utilize our available capital resources sooner than we currently expect.

Until we can generate a sufficient amount of revenue from our TAEUS platform applications, if ever, we expect to finance future cash needs through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or corporate collaborations and licensing arrangements. Additional funds may not be available when we need them on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate one or more of our research or development programs or our commercialization efforts or perhaps even cease the operation of our business. To the extent that we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience additional dilution, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants. To the extent that we raise additional funds through collaborations and licensing arrangements, it may be necessary to relinquish some rights to our technologies or applications or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. We may seek to access the public or private capital markets whenever conditions are favorable, even if we do not have an immediate need for additional capital at that time.

Off-Balance Sheet Transactions

At September 30, 2019, the Company did not have any transactions, obligations or relationships that could be considered off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item 3.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, management performed, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on the evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. We identified the following material weakness as of September 30, 2019: insufficient personnel resources within the accounting function to segregate the duties over financial transaction processing and reporting.

To remediate our internal control weaknesses, management intends to implement the following measures, as finances allow:

● Adding sufficient accounting personnel or outside consultants to properly segregate duties and to effect a timely, accurate preparation of the financial statements.

● Developing and maintaining adequate written accounting policies and procedures, once we hire additional accounting personnel or outside consultants.

The additional hiring is contingent upon our efforts to obtain additional funding and the results of our operations. Management expects to secure funds in the coming fiscal year but provides no assurances that it will be able to do so.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change to our internal controls or in other factors that could affect these controls during the three months ended September 30, 2019 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, our management is currently seeking to improve our controls and procedures in an effort to remediate the deficiency described above.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are not currently a party to any pending legal proceedings that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our business or financial condition. We may, however, be subject to various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business from time to time.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the risk factors and uncertainties described below and the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2018, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 11, 2019. These factors could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and capital position, and could cause our actual results to differ materially from our historical results or the results contemplated by any forward-looking statements contained in this report.

We will need to raise additional capital to meet our business requirements in the future, including obligations relating to outstanding indebtedness, and such capital raising may be costly or difficult to obtain and could dilute current stockholders’ ownership interests.

We have a history of losses from operations and expect to continue to incur losses until we are able to significantly grow our revenues. In our July 2019 private placement transaction (the “June 2019 Private Placement”), we issued senior secured convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $2,587,895 with a maturity date of April 26, 2020. Accordingly, we will need additional financing to maintain and expand our business and to repay the promissory notes at maturity. Such financing may not be available on favorable terms, if at all.

If we are unable to obtain such additional financing on a timely basis, we may have to curtail our development activities and growth plans and/or be forced to sell assets, perhaps on unfavorable terms, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, and ultimately could be forced to discontinue our operations and liquidate, in which event it is unlikely that stockholders would receive any distribution on their shares. See “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources” above. Further, we may not be able to continue operating if we do not generate sufficient revenues from operations needed to stay in business.

Any additional capital raised through the sale of equity or equity-linked securities may dilute current stockholders’ ownership percentages and could also result in a decrease in the market value of our equity securities. Additionally, the terms of any securities issued by us in future capital transactions may be more favorable to new investors, and may include preferences, superior voting rights and the issuance of warrants or other derivative securities, which may have a further dilutive effect on the holders of any of our securities then outstanding.

In addition, we may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, securities law compliance fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs. We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities we issue, such as convertible promissory notes and warrants, which may adversely impact our financial results.

If we fail to satisfy applicable listing standards, including maintenance of at least $2.5 million of stockholders’ equity, our common stock may be delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Our common stock is currently traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Nasdaq Capital Market imposes, among other requirements, listing maintenance standards including minimum bid price and stockholders’ equity requirements. In particular, Nasdaq rules require us to maintain a minimum stockholders’ equity of $2,500,000. On August 14, 2019, we received a notification letter from the Listing Qualifications Staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying us that, based on our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, we no longer maintained the minimum $2.5 million stockholders’ equity required for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market under Marketplace Rule 5550(b)(1) (the “Equity Rule”).

The notification letter had no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. The notification letter stated that, under Nasdaq rules, we had until September 30, 2019 to submit a plan to regain compliance with the Equity Rule. In accordance with the notification letter, we submitted a plan to regain compliance. We expect to be able to regain compliance with the Equity Rule by on or before February 10, 2020 but there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so, or that we will be able to maintain compliance with Nasdaq’s other continued listing requirements or remain listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

If our common stock were delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market, it could, among other things, lead to a number of negative implications, including reduced liquidity in our common stock, the loss of federal preemption of state securities laws and greater difficulty in obtaining financing.
