LIFEELOC TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

1.  ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

 

Lifeloc Technologies, Inc. ("Lifeloc" or the "Company") is a Colorado-based developer, manufacturer and marketer of portable hand-held and fixed station breathalyzers and related accessories, supplies and education.  We design, produce and sell fuel-cell based breath alcohol testing equipment.  We compete in all major segments of the breath alcohol testing instrument market, including law enforcement, workplace, corrections, original equipment manufacturing ("OEM") and consumer markets. In addition, we offer a line of supplies, accessories, services, and training to support customers' alcohol testing programs. We sell globally through distributors as well as directly to users.

 

We define our business as providing "near and remote sensing" products and solutions. Today, the majority of our revenues are derived from products and services for alcohol detection and measurement. We remain committed to growing our breath alcohol testing business. In the future, we anticipate the commercialization of new sensing and measurement products that may allow Lifeloc to successfully expand our business into new growth areas where we do not presently compete or where no satisfactory product solutions exist today.

 

Lifeloc incorporated in Colorado in December 1983.  We filed a registration statement on Form 10 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which became effective on May 31, 2011.  Our fiscal year end is December 31.  Our principal executive offices are located at 12441 West 49th Avenue, Unit 4, Wheat Ridge, Colorado 80033-3338.  Our telephone number is (303) 431-9500.  Our websites are www.lifeloc.com, www.lifeguardbreathtester.com, and www.stsfirst.com.  Information contained on our websites does not constitute part of this Form 10-Q.

 

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation.  These statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information.  They do not include all information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.  However, except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to financial statements included in Lifeloc's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 as filed with the SEC.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and the results of operations and cash flows for the quarters ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.  The Company's 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K includes certain definitions and a summary of significant accounting policies and should be read in conjunction with this Form 10-Q.

 

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements.   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions. Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as well as disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of sales and expense during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Fair Value Measurement.  Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"), provides a comprehensive framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures which are required about fair value measurements. Specifically, ASC 820 sets forth a definition of fair value and establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable value inputs. ASC 820 defines the hierarchy as follows:

 

Level 1 - Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 1 are highly liquid and actively traded instruments with quoted prices, such as equity securities listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

 

Level 2 - Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, but are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded securities or contracts or priced with models using highly observable inputs.

 

9 
 
 

 

Level 3 - Significant inputs to pricing that are unobservable as of the reporting date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring significant management judgment or estimation, such as complex and subjective models and forecasts used to determine the fair value of financial transmission rights.

Inventories.   Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value. We reduce inventory for estimated obsolete or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required.  At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, inventory consisted of the following:

 

      
   2021  2020
Raw materials & deposits  $2,061,696   $2,116,389 
Work-in-process   27,840    16,862 
Finished goods   561,424    524,875 
Total gross inventories   2,650,960    2,658,126 
Less reserve for obsolescence   (155,000)   (160,000)
Total net inventories  $2,495,960   $2,498,126 

 

Income Taxes.  We account for income taxes under the provisions of ASC Topic 740, Accounting for Income Taxes ("ASC 740"). We have determined an estimated annual effective tax rate.  The rate will be revised, if necessary, as of the end of each successive interim period during our fiscal year to our best current estimate.

The estimated annual effective tax rate is applied to the year-to-date ordinary income (loss) at the end of the interim period.

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  This pronouncement also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.

 

Revenue Recognition.  In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.  We adopted this ASU on January 1, 2018 retrospectively, with the cumulative effect of initial application (which was zero) recognized in retained earnings on that date.

 

Revenue from product sales and supplies is generally recorded when we ship the product and title has passed to the customer, provided that we have evidence of a customer arrangement and can conclude that collection is probable.  The prices at which we sell our products are fixed and determinable at the time we accept a customer's order. We recognize revenue from sales to stocking distributors when there is no right of return, other than for normal warranty claims, and generally have no ongoing obligations related to product sales, except for normal warranty.

 

The sales of licenses to our training courses are recognized as revenue at the time of sale. Training and certification revenues are recognized at the time the training and certification occurs.  Data recording revenue is recognized based on each day’s usage of enrolled devices.

 

Revenues arising from extended warranty contracts are booked as sales over their life on a straight-line basis. We have discontinued arranging for customer financing and leasing through unrelated third parties and instead are providing for customer financing and leasing ourselves, which we recognize as revenue over the applicable lease term.  Occasionally, we rent used equipment to customers, and in those cases, we recognize the revenues as they are earned over the life of the contract. 

 

Royalty income is recognized in accordance with agreed upon terms, when performance obligations are satisfied, the amount is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.

 

10 
 
 

 

Rental income from space leased to our tenants is recognized in the month in which it is due, which approximates if it were recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease.

 

On occasion we receive customer deposits for future product orders and product developments.  Customer deposits are initially recorded as a liability and recognized as revenue when the product is shipped and title has passed to the customer, or when agreed milestones are met in the case of product developments.

 

Topic 606 requires the disaggregation of revenue into broad categories, which we have defined as shown below for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020.

      
   Three Months Ended June 30,
       
Product sales:  2021  2020
  Product sales and supplies  $1,490,978   $1,131,928 
  Training, certification and data recording   166,138    116,709 
  Service plans and equipment rental   16,929    17,061 
  Products subtotal   1,674,045    1,265,698 
Royalties   33,652    32,851 
Building rentals   21,939    21,489 
Total revenues  $1,729,636   $1,320,038 
      
    Six Months Ended June 30, 
Product sales:   2021    2020 
  Product sales and supplies  $3,117,138   $2,899,068 
  Training, certification and data recording   302,060    264,891 
  Service plans and equipment rental   30,294    39,605 
  Products subtotal   3,449,492    3,203,564 
Royalties   46,216    92,132 
Building rentals   43,471    42,678 
Total revenues  $3,539,179   $3,338,374 

 

Deferred Revenue.  Deferred revenues arise from service contracts and from development contracts.  Revenues from service contracts are recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract, generally one year, and are included in product revenue in our statements of income.  However, there are occasions when they are written for longer terms up to four years.  The revenues from that portion of the contract that extend beyond one year are shown in our balance sheets as long term.  Deferred revenues also result from progress payments received on development contracts; those revenues are recognized when the contract is complete and are included in product revenue in our statements of income.  All development contracts are for less than one year and all deferred revenues from this source are shown in our balance sheets as short term.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements.  We have reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not expect them to have a material effect on our financial statements. 

  

Stock-Based Compensation.  Stock-based compensation is presented in accordance with the guidance of ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation ("ASC 718").  Under the provisions of ASC 718, companies are required to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in our statement of income.

 

ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the accompanying statement of income.

 

 

11 
 
 

 

Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest during the period.  We used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine fair value. Our determination of fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to our expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. Although the fair value of employee stock options is determined in accordance with ASC 718 using an option-pricing model, that value may not be indicative of the fair value observed in a willing buyer/willing seller market transaction.

 

Stock-based compensation expense recognized under ASC 718 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $0 and $312 respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 it was $17,157 and $32,423 respectively. These amounts consist of stock-based compensation expenses from grants of employee stock options which are allocated to General and Administrative Expense when incurred.

 

Segment Reporting.   We have concluded that we have two operating segments, including our primary business which is as a developer, manufacturer, lessor and marketer of portable hand-held breathalyzers and related accessories, supplies, education, training and royalties from development contracts.  As a result of purchasing our building on October 31, 2014, we have a second business segment consisting of renting portions of our building to existing tenants, whose leases expire at various times until June 30, 2023.  

 

3.  BASIC AND DILUTED INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

 

We report both basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share.  Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common and potential common shares outstanding during the period if the effect of the potential common shares is dilutive.  The shares used in the calculation of dilutive potential common shares exclude options to purchase shares where the exercise price was greater than the average market price of common shares for the period. The shares used in the calculation of dilutive potential common shares exclude options to purchase shares in loss periods since they are anti-dilutive.

 

The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share for three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020:

 

          
   Three Months Ended June 30,
   2021  2020
Net income (loss)  $(109,712)  $(349,592)
Weighted average shares-basic   2,454,116    2,454,116 
Effect of dilutive potential common shares   —      —   
Weighted average shares-diluted   2,454,116    2,454,116 
Net income (loss) per share-basic  $0.04   $(0.14)
Net income (loss) per share-diluted  $0.04   $(0.14)
Antidilutive employee stock options   —      12,500

Weighted average shares-diluted   2,454,116    2,454,116 
Net income (loss) per share-basic  $0.12   $(0.20)
Net income (loss) per share-diluted  $0.12   $(0.20)
Antidilutive employee stock options   —      12,500 

 

4.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

The following table summarizes information about employee stock options outstanding and exercisable at June 30, 2021:

                           
      STOCK OPTIONS OUTSTANDING   STOCK OPTIONS EXERCISABLE

$43.80    20,500    4.67   $3.80    20,500   $3.80 

The exercise price of all options granted through June 30, 2021 has been equal to or greater than the fair market value of the Company's common stock at the time the options were issued. As of June 30, 2021, 24,050 options for our common stock remain available for grant under the 2013 Plan.

 

We granted 50,000 options to an officer in January of 2016, which were to vest based on the achievement of certain performance conditions. In accordance with the terms of the grant, the number of options was reduced to 25,000 on December 31, 2019, and further reduced to 0 on December 31, 2020 as vesting of these options was subject to performance milestones that were not achieved.

 

A total of 20,500 options were granted during the six months ended June 30, 2021, 16,000 of which were granted to two officers and 4,500 of which were granted to two employees. A total of 110,500 options were granted during the three months ended June 30, 2020, 48,000 of which were granted to two officers and three directors. Out of that 48,000, the officers were granted 37,500 and 7,500 and the directors were granted 1,000 each. These options vested immediately upon granting.

 

No options were exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2021 or during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

 

The total number of authorized shares of common stock continues to be 50,000,000, with no change in the par value per share.

5.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Mortgage Expense. We purchased our facilities in Wheat Ridge, Colorado on October 31, 2014 for $1,949,139 and took out a term loan secured by a first mortgage on the property in the amount of $1,581,106 with Bank of America for a portion of the purchase price.  Effective June 30, 2016 the note was amended to revise the interest rate from 4.45% to 4.00% per annum.  The revised note is payable in 99 equal monthly installments of $8,417, including interest, plus a final payment of $1,138,104 (excluding interest) on October 31, 2024.  Our minimum future principal payments on this term loan, by year, are as follows:

      
2021   $24,035 
2022    50,005 
2023    52,072 
2024    1,178,527 
Total    1,304,639 
Less financing cost    (3,616)
Net term loan payable    1,301,023 
Less current portion    (47,910)
Long term portion   $1,253,113 
       

Employee Severance Benefits. Our obligation with respect to employee severance benefits is minimized by the "at will" nature of the employee relationships.  As of June 30, 2021, we had no obligation with respect to contingent severance benefit obligations other than the Company's obligations under the employment agreement with its chief executive officer, Dr. Wayne Willkomm. In the event that Dr. Willkomm's employment is terminated by the Company without Cause (including through a decision by the Company not to renew the employment agreement) or by Dr. Willkomm with Good Reason (as each are defined in the employment agreement), Dr. Willkomm will be eligible, upon satisfaction of certain conditions, for severance equal to two months of salary continuation plus 12 months of health insurance continuation.

 

Contractual Commitments and Purchase Orders. Contractual commitments under development agreements and outstanding purchase orders issued to vendors in the ordinary course of business totaled $515,279 at June 30, 2021.

 

Regulatory Commitments. With respect to our LifeGuard® product, we are subject to regulation by the United States Food and Drug Administration ("FDA").  The FDA provides regulations governing the manufacture and sale of our LifeGuard® product, and we are subject to inspections by the FDA to determine our compliance with these regulations.  FDA inspections are conducted periodically at the discretion of the FDA.  On June 26, 2017, we were inspected by the FDA and no violations were issued. We are also subject to regulation by the DOT and by various state departments of transportation so far as our other products are concerned.  We believe that we are in substantial compliance with all known applicable regulations.

 

6.  LINE OF CREDIT AND PAYCHECK PROTECTION LOANS

 

As part of the long-term financing of our property purchased on October 31, 2014, we obtained a one-year $250,000 revolving line of credit facility with Bank of America, which matured on October 31, 2015 and was extended to June 30, 2018, and bears interest at a rate equal to the LIBOR daily floating rate of .0865% and .0776% on June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, plus 2.5%.  The agreement was amended to increase the amount of the line to $750,000 and extend the maturity date to September 28, 2021.  The revolving line of credit facility is secured by all personal property and assets, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, wherever located. The revolving line of credit facility requires that certain financial ratios be maintained. As of June 30, 2021, these ratios remain unmet as a result of the losses in 2020 and the line of credit remains unavailable until such time as these ratio requirements are met. There was no balance due on the line of credit as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act allocated $350 billion to help small businesses keep workers employed amid the pandemic and economic downturn. Known as the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), the initiative provides federally guaranteed loans to small businesses.  A portion or all of these loans may be forgiven if borrowers comply with certain PPP guidelines including spending the funds on authorized expenses and maintaining their payrolls during the crisis or restore their payrolls afterward. On May 4, 2020, the Company received proceeds of $465,097 from Bank of America under the PPP (the “PPP Loan”) with loan term customary for a loan of the type. The funds were used for certain qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act, and the loan was forgiven in its entirety in February, 2021. Proceeds of $471,347 were received from a second loan with similar terms in February, 2021 and the funds have been used for qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act. The Company plans to timely apply for forgiveness of the full balance of the second loan. No interest on either loan has been recognized in our financial statements.

 

 7.  INCOME TAXES

8. BUSINESS SEGMENTS

 

We currently have two business segments: (i) the sale of physical products, including portable hand-held breathalyzers and related accessories, supplies, education, training ("Product Sales"), and royalties from development contracts with OEM manufacturers ("Royalties" and, together with Product Sales, the "Products" segment), and (ii) rental of a portion of our building (the "Rentals" segment).  The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note 2.

 

Operating profits for these segments exclude unallocated corporate items.  Administrative and staff costs are commonly used by all business segments and are indistinguishable.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following is a discussion of our financial condition and results of operations, and should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.  Certain statements contained in this section are not historical facts, including statements about our strategies and expectations about new and existing products, market demand, acceptance of new and existing products, technologies and opportunities, market and industry segment growth, and return on investments in products and markets.  These statements are forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), and we intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in these statutes.  You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "believes," "expects," "may," "will," "should," "seeks," "intends," "plans" or "anticipates" or the negative of these words and phrases or similar words or phrases that are predictions of or indicate future events or trends and that do not relate solely to historical matters.  Such statements involve substantial risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements.  All forward-looking statements in this section are based on information available to us on the date of this document, and we assume no obligation to update such forward looking statements.  Readers of this Form 10-Q are strongly encouraged to review the section titled "Risk Factors" in our December 31, 2020 Form 10-K.

 

Overview

 

Lifeloc Technologies, Inc., a Colorado corporation ("Lifeloc" or the "Company"), is a Colorado-based developer, manufacturer and marketer of portable hand-held and fixed station breathalyzers and related accessories, supplies and education.  We design, produce and sell fuel-cell based breath alcohol testing equipment.  We compete in all major segments of the portable breath alcohol testing instrument market, including law enforcement, workplace, corrections, original equipment manufacturing ("OEM") and consumer markets. In addition, we offer a line of supplies, accessories, services, and training to support customers' alcohol testing programs. We sell globally through distributors as well as directly to users.

 

We define our business as providing "near and remote sensing" products and solutions. Today, the majority of our revenues are derived from products and services for alcohol detection and measurement. We remain committed to growing our breath alcohol testing business. In the future, we anticipate the commercialization of new sensing and measurement products that may allow Lifeloc to successfully expand our business into new growth areas where we do not presently compete or where no satisfactory product solutions exist today.

 

In addition, with the October 2014 purchase of our corporate headquarters and certain adjacent property, we added a new reporting segment focused on the ownership and rental of real property through existing commercial leases.

 

Lifeloc incorporated in Colorado in December 1983.  We filed a registration statement on Form 10 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which became effective on May 31, 2011.  Our fiscal year end is December 31.  Our principal executive offices are located at 12441 West 49th Avenue, Unit 4, Wheat Ridge, Colorado 80033-3338.  Our telephone number is (303) 431-9500.  Our websites are www.lifeloc.com, www.stsfirst.com and lifeguardbreathtester.com.  Information contained on our websites does not constitute part of this Form 10-K.

Principal Products and Services and Methods of Distribution

 

Alcohol Breath Testers

 

In 1989, we introduced our first breath alcohol tester, the PBA3000. Our Phoenix® Classic was completed and released for sale in 1998, superseding the PBA3000. In turn, the Phoenix® Classic has been superseded by our FC Series and Workplace Series of portable breath alcohol testers, which are discussed below. Neither the PBA3000 nor the Phoenix® Classic is actively sold today.

 

In 2001, we completed and released for sale our new FC Series, designed specifically for domestic and international law enforcement and corrections markets. The portable breath alcohol testers comprising our FC Series are currently being sold worldwide, having contributed to our growth since their introduction. The FC Series is designed to meet the needs of domestic and international law enforcement for roadside drink/drive testing and alcohol offender monitoring. The FC Series is approved by the U.S. Department of Transportation ("DOT") as an evidential breath tester, making it suitable for sale to state law enforcement agencies for preliminary roadside breath alcohol testing.  The FC Series is routinely updated with firmware, software and component improvements as they become available.  It is readily adaptable to the specific requirements and regulations of domestic and international markets.

 

In 2005 and 2006, we introduced two new models, the EV30 and Phoenix® 6.0 Evidential Breath Tester ("Phoenix® 6.0"), which constitute our Workplace Series of testing devices.  Like their predecessor, the Phoenix® Classic, and our FC Series, these instruments are DOT approved. The DOT's specifications support the DOT's workplace alcohol testing programs, including those applicable to workplace alcohol testing for the federally regulated transportation industry. We also sell component parts used in alcohol testing devices, such as mouthpieces used by our breathalyzers, as well as forms and labels used for record keeping, and calibration products for user re-calibration of our devices.  We offer optional service agreements on our equipment, re-calibration services, and spare parts, and we sell supporting instrument training and user certification training to our workplace customers.

 

In 2006, we commenced selling breath alcohol equipment components that we manufacture to other OEMs for inclusion as subassemblies or components in their breath alcohol testing devices.

 

In late 2009, Lifeloc released the LifeGuard® Personal Breathalyzer ("LifeGuard®"), a personal alcohol breath tester that incorporates the same fuel-cell technology used in our professional devices. Intended for the global consumer breathalyzer market, LifeGuard® is marketed internationally through global distributors.  

 

In 2011 and 2012, Lifeloc introduced Bluetooth wireless keyboard and printer communication options for our Phoenix® 6.0 along with a series of web based workplace training courses. We believe these two product innovations have been key to our success and leadership in workplace breath testing.

 

In 2013, Lifeloc expanded our FC Series of professional breath alcohol testers targeted at domestic and international law enforcement and corrections markets with the addition of the FC5 Hornet (the "FC5"). The FC5 is a passive (no mouthpieces required) portable handheld alcohol screening device that competes directly with passive alcohol screeners from our competitors in the education, law enforcement, workplace and corrections markets.

 

In 2013, we also introduced the Sentinel™ zero tolerance alcohol screening station, a fully automated wall mounted screening station for use in safety sensitive industries such as oil and gas and mining. Both devices expand Lifeloc's products for passive alcohol screening.

 

In the third quarter of 2014, we received approval from DOT for our EASYCAL® automatic calibration station for use with our Phoenix ® 6.0 Evidential Breath Testers, and we began shipments of the EASYCAL® to our law enforcement, corrections, workplace and international customers.   The EASYCAL® calibration station is a first of its kind device that automatically performs breath tester instrument calibration, calibration verification and gas management.  As compared to manual instrument calibration, the EASYCAL® reduces the opportunity for human error, saves time and reduces operating costs.  In May 2019, we received DOT approval on a second generation EASYCAL® with broader capabilities called the EASYCAL® G2.

 

In October 2015, we expanded our Sentinel™ line with the Sentinel™ VA alcohol screening station, a fully automated station to control vehicular access to safety critical facilities, such as mines, refineries, power stations and nuclear facilities.  The Sentinel™ VA alcohol screening station is intended to allow all drivers entering a secure area to be tested quickly and efficiently without leaving their vehicle.

 

In November 2019, we received approval from DOT for our LX9 and LT7 base unit alcohol breathalyzers.

Testers for Drugs of Abuse

 

In August 2016, we entered into an exclusive patent license agreement with Sandia Corporation, Albuquerque, NM, pursuant to which we acquired the exclusive rights to develop, manufacture and market Sandia's patented SpinDx™ technology for the detection of drugs of abuse. SpinDx™ uses a centrifugal disk with micro fluidic flow paths allowing multiple tests to be carried out on a single small sample.  Sandia Corporation developed a prototype using the SpinDx™ technology under our Cooperative Research and Development Agreement. We received the prototype in 2018 and are now commercializing the device. The SpinDx™ platform has the potential to improve real-time screening for a panel of high-abuse drugs, with the ability to efficiently and quantitatively measure relatively low concentrations of drugs such as cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, fentanyl and other high-abuse drugs.  We intend to use this technology, sometimes referred to as "Lab on a Disk", to develop devices and tests that could be used at roadside, emergency rooms and in workplace testing to get a rapid and quantitative measure for a panel of such drugs of abuse.  We have detected delta-9-THC (the primary psychoactive component of marijuana) down to concentrations of 5 nanograms per milliliter in our laboratory.  This includes resolving the psychoactive delta-9-THC from its inactive metabolites, an important step in establishing impairment.  We completed the upgrade of our base breathalyzer platform in 2019 (the LX9), and we remain committed to combining it with the SpinDx™ technology. Our goal is to use this combination to develop a THC breathalyzer.  There is no assurance that our efforts to develop a marijuana breathalyzer will be successful or that significant sales will result from such development if successful.

 

In March 2017 we acquired substantially all of the assets related to the Real-time Alcohol Detection and Reporting product ("R.A.D.A.R.®") from Track Group, Inc. ("TRCK") for $860,000 in cash.  The purchased assets included the R.A.D.A.R.® device with cellular reporting for real-time alcohol monitoring, database infrastructure to tabulate and manage subscriber behavior, and biometric methodology and intellectual property to fully automate identity verification.  The R.A.D.A.R.® device was designed to be part of an offender supervision program as an alternative to incarceration, and it is assigned to offenders as a condition of parole or probation with random testing throughout the day to demonstrate that they are meeting the conditions of their sentence. Manufacture of the second generation R.A.D.A.R.® began in 2020. This design has been finalized with several devices now in field testing and sales release planned this year.

 

Training

 

Drug and alcohol testing is highly regulated; thus quality training is an important component of our business.  Initially, our network of Master Trainers provided classroom training which generated certification fees.  This was expanded to include instructor materials, online training modules and direct (live) training via webcam.  In 2011, we launched Lifeloc University, a Learning Management System (LMS), defined as "a software application for the administration, documentation, tracking, reporting and delivery of educational courses or training programs." Lifeloc University is a critical component for online training courses since it provides student accountability.  In 2018, we updated and revised the Lifeloc University LMS utilizing responsive design so it could be viewed on mobile devices.

 

In December 2014, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Superior Training Solutions, Inc. ("STS"), a company that develops and sells online drug and alcohol training and refresher courses. We have augmented and updated the assets we acquired from STS to enable mobile device usage. These assets complement our existing drug and alcohol training courses.

 

Real Property

 

On October 31, 2014, we purchased the commercial property we use as our corporate headquarters and certain adjacent property in Wheat Ridge, Colorado.  The building consists of 22,325 square feet, of which 14,412 square feet are occupied by us and 7,913 square feet are currently leased to two tenants whose leases expire at various times until June 30, 2022. We intend to continue to lease the space we are not occupying, but in the future may elect to expand our own operations into space currently leased to other tenants.  Our purchase of the property was partially financed through a term loan in an original principal amount of $1,581,106, secured by a first-priority mortgage on the property. The loan matures in October 2024.

 

Additional Areas of Interest

 

Consistent with our business goal of providing "near and remote sensing and monitoring" products and solutions, our acquisition strategy involves purchasing companies, development resources and assets that are aligned with our areas of interest and that can further aid in our entering additional markets.  We expect to actively research and engage in the acquisition of resources that can expedite our entrance into new markets or strengthen our position in existing ones.

Results of Operations

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020.

 

Net sales. Our product sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 were $1,674,045, an increase of 32% from $1,265,698 for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.  This increase is primarily attributable to the temporary decrease in demand in the same quarter a year ago resulting from Covid-19. When royalties of $33,652 and rental income of $21,939 are included, total revenues of $1,729,636 increased by $409,598, or 31%, for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 when compared to the same quarter a year ago.

 

Gross profit.   Our total gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2021 of $605,418 represented an increase of 85% from total gross profit of $328,069 for the same period a year earlier. This increase is primarily the result of the pandemic impacting the same period a year earlier. Cost of product sales increased from $979,808 in Q2 of 2020 to $1,108,878 in Q2 of 2021, or 13%, primarily as a result of increased sales volume.  Gross profit margin on products went from 23% in Q2 of 2020 to 34% in Q2 of 2021 as a result of the foregoing factors.

 

Research and development expenses.  Our research and development expenses were $266,633 for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, representing an increase of 46% over the $182,485 in the same quarter a year ago.  This increase resulted mostly from adding personnel and increased compensation, along with costs in connection with the work pertaining to the SpinDx development.

 

Sales and marketing expenses.   Our sales and marketing expenses of $214,124 for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 were lower by $60,656 (22%) from the $274,780 for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, primarily as a result of lower advertising.

 

General and administrative expenses.   Our general and administrative expenses of $256,908 for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 were lower by $67,133 (21%) from the $324,041 in the same period a year ago. This reduction results from an overall expense reduction which was caused by the pandemic.

 

Other income (expense).  Our other income consisted of $813 of interest vs. $3,242 in the same quarter a year ago, with the decrease resulting mostly from lower yields. Our interest expense of $13,544 in the current quarter over $14,016 in the same period a year ago is the result of the balance of the term loan on our building declining.

 

Net income (loss). We had a net loss of $(109,712) in the quarter ended June 30, 2021 compared to a net loss of ($349,592) for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.  This decrease was the result of increased sales and a general improvement in economic conditions resulting from a diminution of the effects of the pandemic, offset in part by the lower income tax benefit of $79,153.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020.

 

Net sales. Our product sales for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were $3,449,492, an increase of $245,928 (8%) from $3,203,564 for the same period a year ago.  When royalties of $46,216 and rental income of $43,471 are included, total revenues of $3,539,179 increased by $200,805, or 6%, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 when compared to the same six months a year ago, as a result of continuing decreased demand caused by Covid-19.

 

Gross profit.   Total gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2021 of $1,429,295 represented an increase of 29% from total gross profit of $1,106,145 for the six months a year earlier. Cost of product sales was reduced from $2,203,380 in the six months ended June 30, 2020 to $2,087,901 or $115,479 (5%) in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as a result of an overall effort to lower fixed costs necessitated by the pandemic. Gross profit margin on products went from 31% in 2020 to 39% in 2021.  

 

Research and development expenses.  Research and development expenses were $573,845 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $479,382 in the same period a year ago, an increase of 20%. This increase resulted mostly from adding personnel and increased compensation, along with costs in connection with the work pertaining to the SpinDx development.

 

Sales and marketing expenses.   Sales and marketing expenses of $444,602 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 decreased $156,742, or 26%, from the $601,344 in the same six months ended June 30, 2020, mostly as a result of the lower advertising and our overall expense reduction efforts.

 

General and administrative expenses.   General and administrative expenses of $607,028 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were lower by $73,900, or 11%, from the $680,928 spent in the same six months a year ago. This decrease resulted primarily from our overall expense reduction efforts, as well as a one-time patent fee in 2020.

Other income (expense).  Other income consisted of $465,097 of forgiveness of our Paycheck Protection loan in 2021, along with interest income of $1,312 in the six months ended June 30, 2021 vs. no loan forgiveness in 2020 and interest income of $10,418. Interest expense in the six months ended June 30, 2021 was down by $207 over the same period a year ago as the result of the balance of the term loan on our building declining. The resulting total other income and expense of $439,348 in the six months ending June 30, 2021 was higher by $457,077 than in the same six months a year ago.

 

Net income.   We realized net income of $293,759 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to a net loss of $(514,898) for the same six months ended June 30, 2020.  This increase of $808,657 was the result of the changes in gross profit and operating expenses discussed above, offset in part by a reduction of tax benefit of 107,749.

 

Trends and Uncertainties That May Affect Future Results

 

Revenues in the second quarter of 2021 were higher compared to revenues in 2020 as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic lowering 2020 revenue. We believe the effects of the pandemic are beginning to diminish, and we expect the remainder of 2021 to show improvement over 2020.  We expect our quarter-to-quarter revenue fluctuations to continue, due to the unpredictable timing of large orders from customers and the size of those orders in relation to total revenues.  Going forward, we intend to focus our development efforts on products we believe offer the best prospects to increase our intermediate and near-term revenues.

 

Our 2021 operating plan is focused on growing sales, increasing gross profits, and increasing research and development efforts on new products for long term growth.  We cannot predict with certainty the expected sales, gross profit, net income or loss, or usage of cash and cash equivalents for 2021.  However, we believe that cash resources will be sufficient to fund our operations for the next twelve months under our current operating plan.  If we are unable to manage the business operations in line with our budget expectations, it could have a material adverse effect on business viability, financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Further, if we are not successful in sustaining profitability and remaining at least cash flow break-even, additional capital may be required to maintain ongoing operations or cost-cutting measures may be implemented.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We compete in a highly technical, very competitive and, in most cases, price driven alcohol testing marketplace, where products can take years to develop and introduce to distributors and end users.  Furthermore, manufacturing, marketing and distribution activities are regulated by the FDA, the DOT, and other regulatory bodies that, while intended to enhance the ultimate quality and functionality of products produced, can contribute to the cost and time needed to maintain existing products and develop and introduce new products.

 

We have traditionally funded working capital needs through product sales and close management of working capital components of our business.  Historically, we have also received cash from private offerings of our common stock, warrants to purchase shares of our common stock, and notes. In our earlier years, we incurred quarter to quarter operating losses to develop current product applications, utilizing a number of proprietary and patent-pending technologies.  Although we maintained profitability during the several years prior to 2021 and 2020, we expect that operating losses could continue in the future.  Should that situation arise, we may not be able to obtain working capital funds necessary in the time frame needed, at satisfactory terms or at all. 

 

On October 31, 2014, we purchased the commercial property we use as our corporate headquarters and certain adjacent property in Wheat Ridge, Colorado for a total purchase price of $1,949,139, of which we paid $368,033 in cash and financed the remaining $1,581,106 through a 10-year term loan from Bank of America bearing interest at 4.45% per annum (amended to 4% per annum in 2017), secured by a first-priority security interest in the property we acquired with the loan. In connection with the term loan, we arranged for a one-year $250,000 line of credit (increased to $500,000 in 2016, and again to $750,000 in 2017) from Bank of America secured by all assets of the Company.  The line of credit bears interest at a rate calculated at the LIBOR daily floating rate plus 2.5%. The revolving line of credit facility requires that certain financial ratios be maintained. As a result of the losses in 2020, these ratios were not met and the revolving line of credit remains unavailable until such time as these ratio requirements are met. As of June 30, 2021, this credit facility has not been used and remains unavailable.

Equipment and space modifications during the six months ended June 30, 2021 were $58,461, compared to $9,088 in the same period a year ago, attributable to SpinDx research and development, specifically the purchase of additional equipment and laboratory updates. We filed patent applications at a cost to us of $0 in the first six months of 2021 and $18,772 in the same period a year ago.

 

As of June 30, 2021, cash was $2,390,591, accounts receivable were $499,050 and current liabilities were $1,215,359 resulting in a net liquid asset amount of $1,674,282.  We believe that the introduction of several new products during the last several years, along with new and on-going customer relationships, will generate sufficient revenues to maintain profitability.  If these revenues are not achieved on a timely basis, we may be required to implement cost reduction measures.

 

We generally provide a standard one-year warranty on materials and workmanship to our customers.  We provide for estimated warranty costs at the time product revenue is recognized.  Warranty costs are included as a component of cost of goods sold in the accompanying statements of income.  For the quarter ended June 30, 2021, and for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, warranty costs were not deemed significant.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

 

We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements.  In general, management's estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories, sales returns, warranty, contingencies and litigation.  We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.  We believe the following critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.

 

We have concluded that we have two operating segments, including our primary business which is as a developer, manufacturer, lessor and marketer of portable hand-held breathalyzers and related accessories, supplies, education, training and royalties from development contracts and a second segment consisting of renting portions of our building to existing tenants. 

 

We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments.  If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances would be required, which would increase our expenses during the periods in which any such allowances were made.  The amount recorded as a provision for bad debts in each period is based upon our assessment of the likelihood that we will be paid on our outstanding receivables, based on customer-specific as well as general considerations.  To the extent that our estimates prove to be too high, and we ultimately collect a receivable previously determined to be impaired, we may record a reversal of the provision in the period of such determination.

 

We reduce inventory for estimated obsolete or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions.  If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required.  Any write-downs of inventory would reduce our reported net income during the period in which such write-downs were applied.

Property and equipment are stated at cost, with depreciation computed over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally five years (three years for software and technology licenses).  We use the double declining method of depreciation for property and equipment, and the straight line method for software and technology licenses. We purchased all of the assets of STS, an online education company, in 2014, which consisted of training courses that are amortized over 15 years using the straight line method.  In October 2014, we purchased our building. A majority of the cost of the building is depreciated over 39 years using the straight line method. In addition, based on the results of a third party analysis, a portion of the cost was allocated to components integral to the building.  Such components are depreciated over 5 and 15 years, using the double declining method and the straight line method respectively.  Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred and major additions, replacements and improvements are capitalized.

 

In March 2017, we acquired the R.A.D.A.R.® assets from TRCK, which consisted of production equipment and of hardware device technology (the "Devices") that are depreciated over 5 years using the double declining balance method when placed in service. With the R.A.D.A.R.® assets, we also purchased software designed to measure breath alcohol content of the user and software technology designed to allow the Devices to be configured and to capture and manage the data being returned from the Device, as well as 6 issued U.S. patents and 16 domestic and international patent applications.  This software and the patents and patent applications are amortized over 15 years using the straight line method.

 

Revenue from product sales and supplies is generally recorded when we ship the product and title has passed to the customer, provided that we have evidence of a customer arrangement and can conclude that collection is probable.  The prices at which we sell our products are fixed and determinable at the time we accept a customer's order. We recognize revenue from sales to stocking distributors when there is no right of return, other than for normal warranty claims, and generally have no ongoing obligations related to product sales, except for normal warranty.

 

The sales of licenses to our training courses are recognized as revenue at the time of sale.  Training and certification revenues are recognized at the time the training and certification occurs.  Data recording revenue is recognized based on each day's usage of enrolled devices.

 

Revenues arising from extended warranty contracts are booked as sales over their life on a straight-line basis.  We are providing for customer financing and leasing, which we recognize as revenue over the applicable lease term.  Occasionally, we rent used equipment to customers, and in those cases, we recognize the revenues as they are earned over the life of the contract.  Revenues from rental of equipment and extended service plans are recognized over the life of the contracts.

 

Royalty income is recognized in accordance with agreed upon terms, when performance obligations are satisfied, the amount is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.

 

Rental income from space leased to our tenants is recognized in the month in which it is due.

 

On occasion we receive customer deposits for future product orders.  Customer deposits are initially recorded as a liability and recognized as revenue when the product is shipped and title has passed to the customer.

 

Stock-based compensation is presented in accordance with the guidance of Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation ("ASC 718").  Under the provisions of ASC 718, companies are required to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options based on estimated fair values on the date of grant using an option-pricing model.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in our statement of operations.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Not applicable.

 

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(a)       Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our management has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934).  Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2021.

 

(b)       Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the period ended June 30, 2021 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

 

A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met.  Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that the Company's disclosure controls will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.  Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.  These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.  Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls.  The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.  Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with associated policies or procedures.  Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
