FLEXPOINT SENSOR SYSTEMS INC - Quarter Report: 2020 June (Form 10-Q)

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

The Company continues to accumulate significant operating losses and has an accumulated deficit of $29,221,211 at June 30, 2020.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Management is seeking additional funding to provide operating capital for its operations until such time as revenues are sufficient to sustain our level of operations.  However, there is no assurance that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

NOTE 3 – DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Company had no derivative liability as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.  

During prior years, the Company issued convertible promissory notes which are convertible into common stock. Due to the Company’s lack of authorized shares necessary to settle all convertible instruments, in accordance with ASC 815-40-25, the Company determined that the conversion features related to these notes are derivative to settle all convertible instruments.  

The Company filed an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation during the fourth quarter of 2019, increasing the number of shares authorized, which authorization was approved by a vote of its shareholders.  The increased number of authorized shares would enable all convertible notes and stock options to be converted.  Therefore, the treatment of these financial instruments as derivatives is no longer required.

NOTE 4 – NOTES PAYABLE

The Company applied for and received a Small Business Administration loan under the Paycheck Protection Program in the amount of $59,500.  The loan was funded on April 30, 2020, bears an interest rate of 1% per annum and has a maturity date of April 30, 2025.  Under the terms of the borrowing it is expected that this entire loan amount will be forgiven at such time as the lending institution published the form under which the request for forgiveness of the loan can be filed.  The funds obtained under this loan were used for the payment of salaries, health insurance costs, rent and utilities, all of which expenses qualify for the loan forgiveness under the terms of the loan.

NOTE 5 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

Convertible Note Payable

At June 30, 2020, there are notes outstanding with principal balances which total $930,000. Of the notes, $890,000 are convertible notes bearing a 10% annual rate of interest (with a 15% default rate) and are convertible into shares of common stock at the rate of $0.05 to $0.07 per share.  $40,000 is a convertible note entered into on August 8, 2011 with a former Company Director, at a rate of $0.20 per share.  That note was due on December 31, 2015, and bears a default interest rate of 10%.

Convertible Note Payable - Related Party

At June 30, 2020, there are notes outstanding with two directors of the Company with balances of $164,257 and $54,256, respectively.  The notes bear an 8% annual rate of interest with a 12% default rate, and are convertible into shares of restricted common stock. Of the notes, $114,513 is convertible into shares of restricted common stock at $0.07 per share and $104,000 of the notes are convertible at $0.06 per share.  All of these notes have a maturity date of March 31, 2021.

NOTE 6 – STOCK OPTION PLANS

On August 25, 2005, the Board of Directors of the Company approved and adopted the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the Plan). The Plan became effective upon its adoption by the Board and continued in effect for ten years, terminating on August 25, 2015.  This plan was approved by the stockholders of the Company at their annual meeting of shareholders on November 22, 2005. Under the Plan, the exercise price for all options issued will not be less than the average quoted closing market price of the Company’s trading common stock for the thirty-day period immediately preceding the grant date plus a premium of ten percent. The maximum aggregate number of shares that may be awarded under the plan is 2,500,000 shares.  The Company continues to utilize the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for calculating the fair value of the options granted as defined by ASC Topic 718, which is an acceptable valuation approach under ASC 718. This model requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected price volatility of the underlying stock.

On August 24, 2015, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of options to purchase 2,185,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.  Of the total issued, 1,960,000 options were issued to replace options held by directors and employees, which were to expire, and 225,000 options were issued to new employees.  Of the options issued, 640,000 have an option price of $0.14 per share, 500,000 have an option price of $0.15 per share, 995,000 have an option price of $0.20 per share, and 50,000 have an option price of $0.25 per share.  Options issued as replacement options for shares surrendered shall have immediate vesting terms. Options which are not replacements vested over a two year four month period in equal installments on the last day of 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively.  

Projected data related to the expected volatility and expected life of stock options is based upon historical and other information, and notably, the Company's common stock has limited trading history. Changes in these subjective assumptions can materially affect the fair value of the estimate, and therefore, the existing valuation models do not provide a precise measure of the fair value of the Company's employee stock options.

Between August 25, 2005 and August 25, 2019, the Company granted options to employees to purchase an aggregate 3,096,000 shares of common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.15 to $2.07 per share.  The options all vested by December 31, 2017 and expire 10 years from the date of grant.  

As of the years ended December 31, 2005 through 2019, the Company recognized a total of $2,443,768 of stock-based compensation expense, which includes charges of $0 in 2019 and $9 in 2018, leaving $0 in unrecognized expense as of December 31, 2019. There were 2,185,000 and 2,185,000 employee stock options outstanding at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.  

12

A summary of all employee options outstanding and exercisable under the plan as of June 30, 2020, and changes during the three months then ended is set forth below:

NOTE 7 – CAPITAL STOCK

Preferred Stock – There are 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.001 per share authorized.  At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

Common Stock – There are 200,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share authorized.  At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were 99,713,464 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.  The Company issued no stock during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

NOTE 8 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company currently occupies approximately 12,548 square feet of office and manufacturing space from F.G.B.P. LLC.  The building is located in a business park in Draper, Utah that consists primarily of high tech manufacturing firms and is located adjacent to Utah’s main interstate highway.  The Company entered into a new lease in 2019 for this facility.  The lease entered into is a month-to-month lease with a 90-day termination clause and includes a basic lease payment as well as an additional component for building costs and taxes.  The basic lease rate for Year 1 is $12,000 a month; it increases 3% each year thereafter.  With the basic and additional component, the Company expects to pay a total lease payment of approximately $14,635 per month in 2020.  The Company evaluated the lease under the new lease accounting standard and determined that it was a short-term lease due to the month-to-month provision and the 90-day notice of termination clause.

NOTE 9 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

At June 30, 2020, there was no amount payable to related parties.  At December 31, 2019, the Company had amounts of $2,197 payable to its Chief Executive Officer for expense reports which had been submitted for payment but were unpaid at December 31, 2019.  

In May 2019, the Company converted the amounts payable to officers to convertible notes in the amounts of $22,000 and $17,000.  The notes bear interest at the rate of 8% per annum with a default rate of 12%, are convertible into shares of common stock at $0.06 per share, and have a maturity date of March 31, 2021.

At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had outstanding notes payable to an officer in the amount of $164,257 and outstanding notes payable to a director in the amount of $54,256.

NOTE 10 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company has evaluated subsequent events pursuant to ASC Topic 855 and has determined that there are no events that require disclosure as of the date of issuance.

The majority of non-essential businesses are still closed or operating on a limited basis.  It is therefore anticipated that revenue will continue to be negatively impacted through at a minimum the third quarter of 2020.  Our ability to generate revenue will be dependent upon the pace at which businesses are allowed to resume operations.

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

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. is a company engaged principally in improving its unique sensor technology, expanding its suite of products, developing new sensor applications, obtaining financing and seeking long-term sustainable manufacturing contracts.  Our operations have not yet commenced to a commercially sustainable level and include designing, engineering, manufacturing and selling sensor technology and products featuring our Bend Sensor^® technology and equipment.

The recent COVID 19 Pandemic (“the Pandemic”) has had a dramatic effect on our business as well as the business of our customers.  The wide ranging effects on the World Wide business market has led to a general reluctance for businesses to move forward with entering into major commitments until their future markets have been clarified. Because of this, we have experienced a significant slowdown in the size and number of orders received and, while we cannot predict when the influence of the Pandemic will end, we expect that orders will return to their former levels and increase following a return to normal business operations.  

On August 20, 2019 the Company announced the development of the world’s first digital bend sensor capable of automatically compensating for changes in the environment, thus guaranteeing consistent performance across temperature and humidity variables. Easily integrated into multiple applications, the data gathered by the sensor will be digitally converted and transmitted, enhancing performance.

The Bend Sensor has traditionally been offered in analog form, but most engineers prefer sensors with digital interfaces such as accelerometers. More attractive to online catalog distributors, Flexpoint’s Digital Bend Sensor (DBS) has an intuitive nature, is more easily integrated with existing products, simplifies design and more importantly, reduces time to market.  

The Company feels that with the ease and simplicity of the digital bend sensor technology, the soon to be released product will bring new opportunities and create various additional applications for Flexpoint’s Bend Sensor Technology.

On July 25, 2019  the Company announced that they had filed a provisional patent for the new “Swell Sensor” designed to detect and stop a Lithium ion or Lithium Polymer battery from charging or discharging, preventing a thermal runway; one of the major ways battery fires occur.

Li-ion and Li-polymer batteries are used today in everything from phones to electric cars. Flexpoint’s technology included in the provisional patent provides a method to protect these batteries, their products and those who use them every day, measuring the expansion or swelling of the battery effectively stopping a potentially dangerous state.

14

Batteries become over heated, over charged, or simply fail due to old age. When this occurs, it is possible for the inner cells of the battery to outgas a flammable electrolyte mixture, causing the battery to swell. The Flexpoint Sensor addresses the swollen battery effect, as batteries are designed to contain as a failsafe the measure of out gassing. The Flexpoint Swell Sensor detects the condition, effectively shutting down the short circuit.  Without this type of detection, some batteries can eventually reach temperatures over 1000º F. Designed to detect the dangerous expansion and stop a Lithium ion or Lithium polymer battery from charging or discharging, the Flexpoint battery expansion sensor was created to prevent thermal runaway—how most battery fires occur. The battery expansion sensor can detect a swollen battery and take appropriate action, effectively shutting it down and sending a notice to the user that the battery is no longer safe.

The Company is currently collaborating with three Fortune 100 companies involving the battery expansion sensor. The overall testing phases range from six to nine months. With confidentiality agreements in place, Flexpoint is now in development with these and other companies to integrate the Battery Expansion Sensor (BXS) into their products. Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. has designed a low cost, viable solution.

During a conference call announcing second quarter 2019 operating results representatives of the Company announced that with the agreements that had been signed and the projects they were pursuing, it was transitioning from a development company to a sales and marketing company.  This represents a significant change for the Company.

On June 20, 2019, the Company announced our exclusive development and licensing agreement with Audio Technology company subVo, LLC introducing a new wave of near perfect sound reproduction for everyday smart and slim devices. Tracking movement in real time, the Bend Sensor® used in the subVo® system knows the exact position of the cone at any given moment, allowing for the amplifier to calibrate, correct, and produce near-perfect sound reproduction, with zero lag time. The Bend Sensor® provides low distortion, flat frequency response, and fast impulse response. In addition to the licensing agreement, the company received income for the previous work for the design and development of the system.

The Flexpoint Bend Sensor® technology will be utilized in subVo’s KlaraT® speaker compensation technology and software algorithm. The sensor, when added to, or printed directly onto the diaphragm of a speaker, enables perfect synergistic motion, sensing precise movements throughout the audible spectrum. The Bend Sensor works with the KlaraT proprietary software, allowing the feedback control and speaker protection algorithms to push speakers to their limits, without distortion or damage. This combined with the auto-calibration algorithm will remove all variability due to tolerances incurred in the manufacturing process, saving time and ultimately cost.  The KlaraT calibration compensates for changes in temperature, humidity, and wear of the speaker itself over time.

On October 18, 2018, the Company announced it had signed a five year manufacturing and supply agreement with Counted LLC.  Counted LLC conceived of a medication delivery monitoring system and dispensing monitoring system.  Flexpoint designed and produced the monitoring system with Flexpoint features, Flexpoint technology and Flexpoint designed electronics to track and report the dispensing of medications in real time.  The information has the potential to be transmitted to physicians, pharmacists and government agencies.  Prototypes have been built and successfully tested with additional production and testing continuing through 2019 and the first quarter of 2020. Currently Counted has announced that they do not have sufficient funding to continue with the project and the company is pursuing other avenues to provide the funding or transfer the technology to another entity.  

In the rapidly growing and emerging wearables space, Flexpoint has recently received additional purchase orders from multiple glove manufacturers across various market sub-segments, including medical, gaming and virtual reality. The “speed to market” commercialization plans of these companies are driving this increased order volume.  Flexpoint is aggressively going after this evolving market. The recent Pandemic has slowed the orders and, while we cannot predict when the influence of the Pandemic will end, we expect this pattern to continue and increase throughout the remainder of 2020 following a return to business.  In aggregate, Bend Sensor^® wearables order volumes are expected to number in the tens of thousands in 2020. The wearables market segment is clearly one where our technology is easily adapted and truly illustrates our technological differentiation.  Flexpoint’s willingness and ability to customize sensors for these innovative companies and deliver them at a competitive price point allows us to deliver real value to our customers.  Again the Global Covid 19 Pandemic has had a dramatic impact on the orders we have received, however in this quarter we received a significant purchase order from Manus and fulfilled the first sensors from that order before the end of the quarter.  It is expected that the balance of the purchase order will be fulfilled during the next quarter.    

15

These groundbreaking glove systems, combined with unique, leading edge software applications, also adapt to a wide range of other applications, including health rehabilitation, unmanned systems control, smartphone interaction and professional training across multiple industries.  In addition to producing an array of Bend Sensors^®, the Company is under agreement to supply integrated assemblies comprised of multiple sensor types and associated electronics.

In the VR/VA marketspace, orders of increasing size and frequency were received during 2019 from Manus VR and Neofect as they strive to fulfill production orders.  Flexpoint also received orders from other global VR/AR customers during the quarter.

Finalizing long-term, constant revenue generating production contracts with our existing and other customers remains our greatest challenge because our on-going business is dependent on the types of revenues and cash flows generated by such contracts. Cash flow and cash requirement risks are closely tied to and are dependent upon our ability to attract significant long-term production contracts.  This process has been impacted by the recent Pandemic and we are unable to determine what the long term effect of these impacts will be at this time. We must continue to obtain funding to operate and expand our operations so that we can deliver our unique Bend Sensor^® and Bend Sensor^® related technologies and products to the market.  Management believes that even though we are making positive strides forward with our business plan we will need to raise additional operating capital.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The challenges posed by the Pandemic in the United States and global economies increased significantly as the first quarter progressed.  Since the onset of the Pandemic, our top priority has been the health and safety of our employees.  During this difficult time we have worked to insure that our customers continue to receive quality, personalized service.  

The Pandemic negatively impacted our revenue during the first two quarters of 2020, and has extended into the third quarter as well.  At this time it is impossible to accurately predict when this will end.  Many of our clients, to protect their employees, have sharply curtailed operations and have most employees working from home.  The long-term impact of the Pandemic is difficult to assess at this point, as it will be dependent on how rapidly our clients can resume their business operations and place orders with us for the needed sensors incorporated into their products.  Currently our revenue is primarily from product licensing, development, manufacturing and recurring sales with additional contributions to income from design contract, testing and limited production services for prototypes and samples, and is currently at a level to support our operations.  Depending upon the world returning to some form of normalcy following the end of the Pandemic, we believe, based upon current orders and projected orders over the next twelve months, that we could be producing sensors under long-term contracts in the future that will help support our existing operations and potential future growth. Management recognizes such contracts usually go through a long negotiation process and there can be no guarantee that we will be successful in our negotiations or that such contracts will be sufficient to support our current operations in the near future.

In 2019, we relied on the proceeds of convertible loans from existing shareholders, private placements of our common stock, and fees obtained under licensing agreements.  The balances of the convertible notes have a combined total of $1,148,513 as of June 30, 2020. The notes have an annual interest rate of 8% to 10% and default rates of 10% to 15%, have various maturity dates, and are secured by the Company’s business assets.

Management believes that our current cash burn rate is approximately $60,000 per month.  If the Pandemic ends and business returns to pre-pandemic levels, with proceeds from additional convertible notes and estimated revenues for manufacturing, production, engineering design and prototype products should be sufficient to fund the next twelve months of operations.  Our auditors have expressed doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and that we may not realize significant revenue or become profitable within the next twelve months. We will require additional financing to fund our short-term cash needs. We will have to rely on additional debt financing, loans from existing shareholders and private placements of common stock for additional funding. Based upon our anticipated purchase orders over the next twelve months the revenue generated will not be sufficient to cover our operating expenses, based on our current burn rate. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain short-term financing, or that sources of such financing, if any, will continue to be available, and if available, that they will be on terms favorable to us. Nor is there any guarantee that the projected volume of purchase orders will meet the volumes that we anticipate.

16

As we enter into new agreements, we must ensure that those agreements provide adequate funding for any pre-production research and development and manufacturing costs. If we are successful in establishing agreements with adequate initial funding, management believes that our operations for the long term will be funded by revenues, licensing fees and/or royalties related to these agreements. However, we have formalized only a few agreements during the past four years and there can be no assurance that the agreements will generate sufficient revenues or be profitable in the future or that a desired technological application will be successful enough to produce the volumes and profits necessary to fund our operations.  

FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Our principal commitments at June 30, 2020 consisted of our operating lease of $14,635 per month, and total liabilities of $3,252,831, which includes $1,148,513 of convertible notes payable.  Accrued liabilities at June 30, 2020, were $1,819,890 and were related to payroll, payroll tax liabilities, accrued professional expenses, accrued insurance expense, accrued interest expense on notes and accrued paid time off.  

The Company has a few major customers who represent a significant portion of revenue and accounts receivable. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, four customers represented 85% of sales and three other customers represented 94% of accounts receivable.  The Company has a strong ongoing relationship with these customers with scheduled product deliveries extending through the year and does not believe this concentration poses a significant risk, as their products are based entirely on the Company’s technologies.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources and would be considered material to investors.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates of particular significance in our financial statements include goodwill and the annual tests for impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets and valuing stock option compensation.  

The Company's goodwill represents the excess of its reorganization value over the fair value of the net assets upon emergence from bankruptcy. Goodwill is not amortized, therefore we test our goodwill for impairment annually or when a triggering event occur using a fair value approach. A fair value based test is applied at the overall Company level. The test compares the fair value of the Company to the carrying value of its nets assets. The test requires various judgments and estimates. During 2019 and for the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded no impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of the goodwill to its estimated fair value. As part of the impairment testing performed at December 31, 2019, the Company considered factors such as the global market volatility, variables in the economy, and the overall uncertainty in the markets that has resulted in a decline in the market price of the Company's stock price and market capitalization for a sustained period, as indicators for potential goodwill impairment.

We test long-lived assets for impairment annually or when a triggering event occurs. Impairment is indicated if undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the assets. The amount of impairment is measured using a discounted-cash-flows model considering future revenues, operating costs and risk-adjusted discount rate and other factors. The analysis compares the present value of projected net cash flows for the remaining current year and next two years against the carrying value of the long-lived assets. If the carrying values of the long-lived assets exceed the present value of the discounted projected revenues an impairment expense would be recognized in the period and the carrying value of the assets would be adjusted accordingly. Impairment tests are conducted on an annual basis and, should they indicate a carrying value in excess of fair value, a charge may be required.

Financial accounting standards require that recognition of the cost of employee services received in exchange for stock options and awards of equity instruments be based on the grant-date fair value of such options and awards and is recognized as an expense in operations over the period they vest. The fair value of the options we have granted is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes American option-pricing model. Option pricing 

17

models require the input of highly sensitive assumptions, including expected stock volatility. In addition, our stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate.  Management believes the best input assumptions available were used to value the options and that the resulting option values are reasonable. For the six month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we recognized $0 and $0, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense for our stock options and there is no additional unrecognized compensation cost related to employee stock options at the current time.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company continues to concentrate its marketing resources on a limited number of customers that have the greatest potential to generate the most short-term revenue while still building relationships with our larger customers. Management believes this approach has the highest potential to bring long-term commercially viable products to market and will provide sustainable cash flow to fund the Company's operations in the future. Currently, overall revenues are not sufficient to sustain our operations.  The recent Pandemic has had a dramatic effect on our business as well as the business of our customers.  The wide ranging effects on the World Wide business market has led to a general reluctance for businesses to move forward with entering into major commitments until their future markets have been clarified. Because of this, we have experienced a significant slowdown in the size and number of orders received and, while we cannot predict when the influence of the Pandemic will end, we expect that orders will return to their former levels and increase throughout the remainder of 2020 following a return to normal business operations.  Following a return to normal business operations in the world, Management anticipates that revenues will increase as we continue to execute our long-term business plan and cultivate larger customer bases with our existing product offering. However, until the Pandemic ends and a long-term production contract is in place there is no guarantee that our current customer base will order in sufficient volumes to sustain our operations. Therefore, management continues to work with larger companies and industries and is hopeful that in the near future we will sign a long-term licensing or manufacturing contract.

We recognized revenue from repeat orders from our existing customers, design contract, and development engineering.  Revenue is recognized using the ASC 606 five step detailed in Note 1 to the financial statements. Revenue from the sale of a product is recorded at the time of shipment to the customer.  Revenue from the license agreements was recognized in the period the agreement was concluded, as it is a right of use license and the Company has no further obligations to perform under the terms of the agreement.  Revenue from research and development engineering contracts is recognized as the services are provided and accepted by the customer. Revenue from contracts to license technology to others is deferred until all conditions under the contract are met and then the sale is recognized as licensing royalty revenue over the remaining term of the contract.

The following discussions are based on the consolidated operations of Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. and should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, included in Part I, Item 1, above, and the audited financial statements included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

THREE MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 2020 AND 2019:

For the three months ending June 30, 2020 revenue was $42,195, a decrease of $530,251 when compared to the same period in 2019. The majority of the revenue variance for this period is from a $450,000 licensing agreement recognized in 2019.  The remaining part of the variance is attributable to the business slowdown created by the Pandemic.

18

Of the $182,021 and $220,557 total operating costs and expense for the three months ending June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, $70,280 and $74,306 were for direct research and development cost, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, total operating expenses decreased by $38,536 when compared to the same period in 2019.  The decrease resulted from a $43,905 decrease in rent expense due to the Company charging rent for customers it has provided both office and warehouse space in their building.  This rent sharing arrangement will continue, which will lower operating expenses going forward.   

Other expense for the three month period ended June 30, 2020 was $39,117, a $205,287 decrease compared to the same period in 2019.  The decrease is attributable to a loss of $254,157 on the change in fair value of derivative liabilities recorded in 2019, offset in part by a $90,325 gain on extinguishment of debt.  No similar gains or losses were incurred in 2020.

A net loss of $178,943 was realized for the three months ended June 30, 2020.  Net income of $107,485 was realized for the three month period ended June 30, 2019 due to the other income items previously discussed.

SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 2020 AND 2019:

For the six months ending June 30, 2020 revenue was $81,298, a decrease of $555,743 when compared to the same period in 2019. The majority of the revenue variance for this period is attributable to the $450,000 license agreement revenue recognized in 2019. As earlier discussed, follow on orders from our customers have slowed as the economy has been negatively impacted by the current Pandemic.

Of the $437,380 and $441,250 total operating costs and expense for the six months ending June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, $147,619 and $153,458 were for direct research and development cost, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, total operating expenses decreased by $3,870 when compared to the same period in 2019, due primarily to a reduction in building rent.  

Other expense for the six month period ended June 30, 2020 was $77,524, a $277,604 decrease compared to the same period in 2019.  The decrease is primarily attributable to the loss of $288,694 on the change in fair value of derivative liabilities and a $90,325 gain on extinguishment of debt recorded in 2019 while in 2020 interest expense was reduced by $78,990.

A net loss of $433,606 was realized for the six months ended June 30, 2020.  A net loss of $159,337 was realized for the Six month period ended June 30, 2019.

The chart below represents a summary of our condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

19

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $170,004 at June 30, 2020 compared to December 31, 2019. The decrease in cash is due to the payment of operating costs and the operating loss sustained for the six month period, offset in part by the proceeds from the SBA loan obtained.  Our non-current assets decreased at June 30, 2020 due to the depreciation of property and equipment.

Total liabilities increased by $307,523 at June 30, 2020.  The increase was due primarily to the $59,500 note entered into, coupled with accruals made for marketing services, interest on notes and payroll accruals.

INFLATION

We do not expect the impact of inflation on our operations to be significant for the next twelve months.

Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a)

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, who also serves as our Principal Financial Officer.  Our controls and procedures are designed to allow information required to be disclosed in our reports to be recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified periods, and accumulated and communicated to management to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure of material information.  Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.  Based upon the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at that reasonable assurance level as of the end of the six-month period ended June 30, 2020.  

The material weaknesses relate to the limited number of persons responsible for the recording and reporting of financial information, the lack of separation of financial reporting duties, and the limited size of our management team in general. We are in the process of evaluating methods of improving our internal control over financial reporting, including the possible addition of financial reporting staff and the increased separation of financial reporting responsibility, and intend to implement such steps as are necessary and possible to correct these material weaknesses

(b)

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the six months of 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
