NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Inrad Optics, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
In preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were issued.
Management Estimates
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses reported in those financial statements. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, and makes adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates and assumptions. Significant changes, if any, in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are carried at net realizable value, net of write-offs and allowances. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on estimates as to the collectability of accounts receivable. Management specifically analyzes past-due accounts receivable balances and, additionally, considers bad debt history, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. Uncollectible accounts receivable are written-off when it is determined that the balance will not be collected. Reserves for uncollectible accounts receivable are recorded as part of selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, and were $46,000 at September 30, 2022, and $90,000 at December 31, 2021.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in-first-out basis) and net realizable value. The Company records a reserve for slow moving inventory as a charge against earnings for all products identified as surplus, slow-moving, or discontinued. Excess work-in-process costs are charged against earnings whenever estimated costs-of-completion exceed unbilled revenues.
5
Inventories are comprised of the following and are shown net of inventory reserves of $2,339,000 and $2,480,000 at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively:

Income Taxes
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statements carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.
In evaluating the Company’s ability to recover deferred tax assets in future periods, management considers the available positive and negative factors, including the Company’s recent operating results, the existence of cumulative losses and near-term forecasts of future taxable income consistent with the plans and estimates that management uses to manage the underlying business. A significant piece of objective negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred by the Company over the three-year period ended December 31, 2020. Such objective evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence such as our projections for future growth.
On the basis of this evaluation as of September 30, 2022, the Company’s management concluded that it is more likely than not that the Company will not be able to realize any portion of the benefit on the net deferred tax asset balance of $3,406,000 and therefore the Company continues to maintain a valuation allowance for the full amount of the net deferred tax asset balance. When sufficient positive evidence exists, the Company’s income tax expense will be charged with the increase or decrease in its valuation allowance. An increase or reversal of the Company’s valuation allowance could have a significant negative or positive impact on the Company’s future earnings.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not record a current provision for income taxes due to the permanent difference related to loan forgiveness and the availability of net operating loss carryforwards to offset taxable income for both income tax and financial reporting purposes.
Net Income (Loss) per Common Share
Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares and common stock equivalents outstanding, calculated on the treasury stock method for options, stock grants and warrants using the average market prices during the period, including potential common shares issuable upon conversion of outstanding convertible notes, except if the effect on the per share amounts is anti-dilutive.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, a total of 2,500,000 common shares and 1,875,000 common shares from warrants issuable upon conversion of outstanding related party convertible notes in addition to 15,000 common stock options in each respective period, were excluded from the computation of basic and diluted net income per common share because their effect is anti-dilutive.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, a total of 2,500,000 common shares and 1,875,000 common shares from warrants issuable upon conversion of outstanding related party convertible notes in addition to 274,300 common stock options in each respective period, were excluded from the computation of basic and diluted net income per common share because their effect is anti-dilutive.

Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation expense is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of restricted stock units granted is based on the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. The fair value of these awards, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, is amortized over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting period.
Recent Accounting Standards
In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”) which amended guidance on the accounting for credit losses on financial instruments within its scope. The guidance introduces an expected loss model for estimating credit losses, replacing the incurred loss model. The new guidance also changes the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities, requiring the use of an allowance to record estimated credit losses (and subsequent recoveries). The new guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning in 2023, with earlier application permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. This ASU update is intended to simplify the complexity associated with applying generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. This guidance is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 – SALES REVENUE
The Company’s revenues are comprised of the sale of products and services including, products and services provided under long-term government contracts with its customers. All revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies its performance obligation(s) under the contract (either implicit or explicit) by transferring the promised product or service to its customer either when (or as) its customer obtains control of the product or service. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product or service to a customer. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation. The majority of the Company’s contracts have a single performance obligation, as the promise to transfer products or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contract and, therefore, not distinct. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation using the Company’s best estimate of a standalone selling price for each distinct product or service in the contract, which is generally based on an observable price.
Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring products or providing services. As such, revenue is recorded net of returns, allowances, customer discounts, and incentives. Sales, value add, and other taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net (excluded from revenues) basis. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold.
The Company’s performance obligations under long-term government contracts are generally satisfied over time. Revenue from products or services transferred to customers under these performance obligations accounted for approximately 0% of revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Revenue from products or services transferred to customers under these performance obligations accounted for approximately 0% and 0.5% of revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. This revenue is generally recognized using an input measure based upon the proportion of actual costs incurred to estimated total project costs, which is a method used to best depict the Company’s performance to date under the terms of the contract.
Accounting for these long-term government contracts involves the use of various techniques to estimate total revenue and costs. The Company estimates profit on these long-term government contracts as the difference between total estimated revenue and expected costs to complete a contract and recognizes that profit over the life of the contract. Contract estimates are based on various assumptions to project the outcome of future events that may span several years. These assumptions include, among other things, labor productivity, costs and availability of materials, and timing of funding by the U.S. government. The nature of these long-term agreements may give rise to several types of variable consideration, such as claims, awards and incentive fees. Historically, these amounts of variable consideration are not considered significant. Additionally, contract estimates may include additional revenue for submitted contract modifications if there exists an enforceable right to the modification, the amount can be reasonably estimated, and its realization is probable. These estimates are based on historical collection experience, anticipated performance, and the Company’s best judgement at the time. These amounts are generally included in the contract’s transaction price and are allocated over the remaining performance obligations. Changes in judgments on these above estimates could impact the timing and amount of revenue recognized with a resulting impact on the timing and amount of associated income. Under these long-term government contracts, the Company may receive payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules; accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. In the event a contract loss becomes known, the entire amount of the estimated loss is recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The majority of the Company’s revenue is from products and services transferred to customers at a point in time and was approximately 100% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company recognizes revenue at the point in time in which the customer obtains control of the product or service, which is generally when product title passes to the customer upon shipment. In limited cases, title does not transfer, and revenue is not recognized until the customer has received the products at its physical location.

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed receivables, costs in excess of billings (contract assets), and billings in excess of costs (contract liabilities, previously deferred revenue) on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Contract liabilities also include customer advances or prepayments. Costs in excess of billings and billings in excess of costs associated with long-term government contracts were not significant at September 30, 2022 or 2021. The Company had no remaining revenue to be recognized from long-term government contracts at September 30, 2022 or 2021.
On September 30, 2022, the Company had approximately $21.5 million of performance obligations, which is also referred to as backlog. Approximately 12.9% of the September 30, 2022 backlog, is related to projects that will extend beyond September 30, 2023.

NOTE 8 – LEASES
The Company’s lease agreements consist of the building lease and an office equipment lease with terms that range from 5 months to three years. Under the guidance of ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), the Company determines if such arrangements contain a lease and whether that lease meets the classification criteria of a finance or operating lease at inception of the arrangement.
The Company entered into an amendment and extension of its building lease on July 25, 2022, retroactive to June 1, 2022. The Company determined that this lease is an operating lease and presented as a right-of-use lease asset, short term lease liability and long-term lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet. These assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term using the Company’s incremental borrowing rate.
Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in cost of sales and general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of operations.
An initial right-of-use asset of $0.9 million was recognized as a non-cash asset addition with the signing of the July 29, 2022, facility lease. Cash paid for amounts included in the present value of operating lease liability was $0.1 million during each of the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, and $0.2 million during each of the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. Operating lease costs are included in operating cash flows. The Company’s other lease liabilities consist of a financing lease for certain computer equipment.

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERTIONS |
Caution Regarding Forward Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the federal securities laws. The Company wishes to ensure that any forward-looking statements are accompanied by meaningful cautionary statements in order to comply with the terms of the safe harbor provided by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The events described in the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report may not occur. Generally, these statements relate to business plans or strategies, projected or anticipated benefits or other consequences of the Company’s plans or strategies, projected or anticipated benefits of acquisitions made by the Company, projections involving anticipated revenues, earnings, or other aspects of the Company’s operating results. The words “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “project,” “plan,” “intend,” “estimate,” and “continue,” and their opposites and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The Company cautions you that these statements are not guarantees of future performance or events and are subject to a number of uncertainties, risks, and other influences, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, that may influence the accuracy of the statements and the projections upon which the statements are based. Factors which may affect the Company’s results include, but are not limited to, the risks and uncertainties discussed in Items 1A, 7 and 7A of the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2022. Any one or more of these uncertainties, risks, and other influences could materially affect the Company’s results of operations and whether forward-looking statements made by the Company ultimately prove to be accurate. Readers are further cautioned that the Company’s financial results can vary from quarter to quarter, and the financial results for any period may not necessarily be indicative of future results. The foregoing is not intended to be an exhaustive list of all factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements made by the Company. The Company’s actual results, performance and achievements could differ materially from those expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether from new information, future events, or otherwise.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and further discussed in our annual financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. In preparing our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, we made estimates and judgments that affect the results of our operations and the value of assets and liabilities we report. Our inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in-first-out basis) and net realizable value. The Company records a reserve for slow moving inventory as a charge against earnings for all products identified as surplus, slow-moving or discontinued. Excess work-in-process costs are charged against earnings whenever estimated costs-of-completion exceed unbilled revenues. The Company’s estimates also include the amount and timing of future taxable income in determining the valuation allowance for deferred income tax assets. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
For additional information regarding our critical accounting policies and estimates, see the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our annual report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Impact of COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic has created significant volatility and global economic disruption and the impact on our future consolidated results of operations remains uncertain. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our employees, operations, customers, suppliers and financial results depends on numerous evolving factors that we may not be able to accurately predict, including: the impact of new COVID-19 variants in the future; government actions taken in response to the pandemic, including required shutdowns, vaccine or testing mandates; supply chain disruptions; rising inflation; labor shortages; and the effect on our customers’ demand for our products. We may also be impacted by state actions, orders and policies regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. We cannot predict whether new travel or quarantine policies will have an impact on our operations.

Sales Revenue
Sales for the three months ended September 30, 2022, were $2.6 million, a decrease of $0.2 million or 7.5% compared to $2.8 million, for the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, sales were $7.8 million, a decrease of 8.2%, or $0.7 million, compared to sales of $8.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, sales to the defense/aerospace market were $0.6 million in each period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, sales to the defense/aerospace market were $2.3 million and $2.9 million, respectively. The decrease in sales in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, of $0.6 million, or 21.5% reflects softened demand for the Company’s defense-based products during the nine-month period ending September 30, 2022.
Process control and metrology (“PC&M”) sales were $1.8 million for each of the three months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, reflecting the continued strong demand in the semiconductor industry. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, sales increased 21.3% or $0.8 million to $4.9 million from $4.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Sales in the PC&M market continue to increase due to strong demand in the semiconductor industry.
For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, sales to customers in the laser systems market were $48,000 and $136.000, respectively. The decrease of $88,000, or 64.7%, reflects the decrease in sales of products for legacy replacement materials. Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, were $0.2 million and $0.6 million, respectively. Products sold into this market segment largely consist of legacy materials for replacement units and small volume buys.
Sales to customers in the scientific/R&D market were $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 61.5%. The decrease reflects reduced demand from national laboratories. For the nine-month period ending September 30, 2022, sales decreased $0.6 million to $0.4 million, compared to $1.0 million for nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in sales for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, reflects reduced demand for certain products in this market and completion of a federal government R&D contract in the beginning of 2021.
For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, five customers represented 10% or more of sales and three customers represented 10% or more of sales, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, three customers represented 10% or more of sales compared to two customers representing 10.0% or more of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
The Company’s top five customers represented 70.7% of sales for the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, compared to 67.1% of sales in the same period in 2021. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s top five customers represented 66.4% and 50.5% of sales, respectively.
Orders booked during the first nine months of 2022, totaled $16.9 million, compared to $12.4 million for the same period last year. Order backlog at September 30, 2022 and 2021, was $21.5 million and $9.8 million, respectively.
14
Cost of Goods Sold
For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, cost of goods sold was $1.8 million and $2.0 million, or 70.3% and 69.3% of total revenues, respectively. Cost of goods sold in the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, was as a percentage stayed consistent. Cost of goods sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, were $5.4 million and $5.7 million, respectively. Cost of goods sold decreased $0.3 million reflecting lower costs for materials and services offset by increases in employee related costs and depreciation.
Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2022, was $0.8 million or 29.7% of sales compared to $0.9 million or 30.8% of sales in the same quarter last year. Gross profit for the year-to-date period ending September 30, 2022, was $2.4 million or 30.8% of sales, a decrease of $0.3 million, compared to $2.7 million or 32.3% of sales, for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, is due to lower sales revenues combined with an increase in material costs and employee related costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A” expenses) were $0.7 million in each of the three months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, or 27.7% of sales and 24.2% of sales, respectively. The increase as a percentage of sales in SG&A expenses in the three months ended September 30, 2022, reflects an increase in employee related expenses. SG&A expenses for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, were $2.2 million, or 27.7% of sales, and $1.9 million or 22.8% of sales, respectively. The increase in SG&A expenses for the year-to-date period reflects an increase in employee related expenses coupled with an increase in marketing and travel expenses.
Income from Operations
The Company realized net income from operations of $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared with net income from operations of $0.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in income primarily reflects a decrease in sales coupled with higher cost of goods sold and higher SG&A expenses. The Company realized net income from operations of $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared net income from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, of $0.8 million. The decrease in net income from operations is primarily due lower revenues coupled with an increase in SG&A expenses.
Other Income and Expense
There was no significant change in net interest expense for the three months or nine months periods ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same periods ended September 30, 2021. Other income reflects the gain on the forgiveness of the PPP loan of $1.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Income Taxes
For the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company did not record a current provision for income taxes due to the availability of net operating loss carryforwards to offset taxable income for both federal and state tax purposes.
For the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company did not record a current provision for income taxes due to the permanent difference related to loan forgiveness and the availability of net operating loss carryforwards to offset taxable income for both income tax and financial reporting purposes.
Net Income
The Company had a net income of $12,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to net income of $140,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The change primarily reflects a decrease in sales coupled with an increase in SG&A costs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded net income of $0.1 million compared to net income of $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in net income reflects lower sales, higher SG&A costs, and the absence of the $1.0 million gain resulting from forgiveness of the PPP loan recorded in the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s primary source of liquidity is cash and cash equivalents and on-going collection of accounts receivable. The Company’s major use of cash in recent years has been for financing operations, for payment of accrued and current interest on convertible debt, for servicing of long-term debt, and for capital expenditures.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1.7 million and $1.8 million, respectively.
The Company occupies approximately 42,000 square feet of space located at 181 Legrand Avenue, Northvale, New Jersey pursuant to a net lease which was amended on July 29, 2022, retroactive to June 1, 2022, for an additional three-year term. Under the terms of the lease, the Company is obligated for all real estate taxes, maintenance, and operating costs of the facility.
On July 22, 2020, the maturity dates of a $1,500,000 Subordinated Convertible Promissory Note to Clarex Limited (“Clarex”) and a $1,000,000 Subordinated Convertible Promissory Note to an affiliate of Clarex were each extended to April 1, 2024, from April 1, 2021. The notes bear interest at an annual rate of 6%. Interest accrues yearly and is payable on maturity. Unpaid interest, along with principal, may be converted into securities of the Company as follows: the notes are convertible in the aggregate into 1,500,000 units and 1,000,000 units, respectively, with each unit consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant. Each warrant allows the holder to acquire 0.75 shares of common stock at a price of $1.35 per share. As part of the agreement, the expiration dates of the warrants were extended from April 1, 2024 to April 1, 2027. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had accrued interest in the amount of $37,500 associated with these notes.

The net cash provided by operating activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, resulted primarily from operating income and increases in accounts payable, contract liabilities and a reduction in other current assets and accounts receivable, offset by an increase in inventories. The net cash provided by operating activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, resulted primarily from operating income and a reduction in inventories and other assets, offset by the gain on the forgiveness of the $1.0 million PPP loan, an increase in accounts receivable and decreases in accounts payable and contract liabilities.
Net cash used in investing activities was $389,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $41,000 in the same period last year reflecting capital expenditures in both periods.
Net cash used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily reflects the principal payments on notes payable.
Overall, cash and cash equivalents decreased by $72,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and increased by $690,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
On May 6, 2020, the Company received loan proceeds of approximately $973,000 (the “PPP Loan”), under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). The PPP was established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) which was enacted March 27, 2020. The PPP Loan, which is in the form of a promissory note, dated May 4, 2020, issued by the Company, initially matured on May 4, 2022, and bore interest at a rate of 1.0% per annum.

On January 19, 2021, the Company received notification from the Small Business Association that the Company’s Forgiveness Application of the PPP Loan and accrued interest, totaling $980,000, was approved in full, and the Company had no further obligations related to the PPP Loan. Accordingly, the Company recognized a gain from forgiveness on PPP Loan in the nine months ended March 31, 2021.
Management believes, based on the Company’s operations and its existing working capital resources together with existing cash flows, that the Company has sufficient cash flows to fund operations through at least November 11, 2023.
