NOTES
TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1.

ORGANIZATION
AND NATURE OF
OPERATIONS
|
GTX
Corp,
a Nevada corporation (the “Company” or “GTX”) formerly known as Deeas Resources
Inc., owns 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Global
Trek
Xploration. On September 22, 2008, the Company dissolved 0758372 B.C.
Ltd.
Concurrent with the March 14, 2008 Exchange Agreement described below,
the
Company changed its name from Deeas Resources Inc. to GTX Corp. All of
the
Company's operations are currently conducted through Global Trek Xploration.
Unless the context indicates otherwise, references herein to “we,” “our,” or the
"Company" during periods prior to March 14, 2008 refer solely to Global
Trek
Xploration, while references to “we,” “our,” or the "Company" after March 14,
2008 refer to both GTX Corp and its subsidiary; Global Trek Xploration. All
references to "Deeas" refer to Deeas Resources Inc. on a stand-alone
basis prior
to March 14, 2008.
We
developed and patented an integrated miniaturized 2-Way GPS™ tracking and
location aware technology for consumer products and applications. As
the
underlying technology provider, the Company works with branded license
partners
to deliver these innovative solutions to the consumer in a wide variety
of
wearable location devices. Our gpVector
Personal
Location Services (“GPS/PLS") suite delivers remote real-time oversight of loved
ones and high-value assets. Our licensing model and a user friendly format
allows us to transparently embed the technology into a wide variety of
branded
consumer products. In addition to geo spatial location-reporting, which
provides peace of mind to caretakers, the Company’s scalable gpVector™
technology platform is also designed to deliver new and innovative life
style
based applications. Some of those are interactive real-time gaming and
performance, health / exercise monitoring and geo specific social networking.
The miniaturization of the electronics offers a whole new category of
portable
hosts to deliver a wide range of new people-oriented wearable 2 way GPS/PLS
solutions.
GTX
Corp’s vision at the inception of the Company was GPS-enabled footwear for
young
children and the elderly with dementia. The Company has expanded that
to now
include embedded 2-Way GPS™ technology providing an extensive gpVector™
platform. Additional deployments in progress include exercise monitoring,
law enforcement, maritime applications, military and first responders,
cellular
handsets for social networking, automotive/commercial/payload tracking
and many
others. The Company holds one patent, has two that have been noticed
for
allowance by the USPTO and has fifteen additional patents pending.
With
six
years of research and development, key strategic technology partnerships,
and a
diligent ongoing policy of intellectual property protection, GTX Corp
continues
its efforts to advance the wearable GPS industry and the 2-Way GPS/PLS
space.
GTX Corp’s approach is to be the value-added supporting brand to master consumer
brands. The driving goal of the Company is to utilize advanced assisted
GPS,
cellular and Internet technologies, then integrate that technology with
branded
consumer products and collectively deliver solutions which will benefit
people
and society.

Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have
been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim
financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of
Regulation
S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements
do not
contain all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete audited annual financial statements.
The
unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of the
Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts
and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period
amounts
have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. In the
opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial
position as of September 30, 2008 and the results of operations for the
three
and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 and consolidated statements
of
cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007. These
interim
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the
Company’s Prospectus filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on August
14,
2008 which includes the audited financial statements and notes thereto
of Global
Trek Xploration as of December 31, 2007. Operating results for the three
and
nine month periods ended September 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative
of
results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2008.
Reverse
Merger
On
March
4, 2008, Deeas entered into the Share Exchange Agreement, (the “Exchange
Agreement”), with Global Trek Xploration, the shareholders of Global Trek
Xploration (the “Selling Shareholders”), and Jupili Investment S.A., a company
incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Panama (“Jupili”).
Under
the
Exchange Agreement, the Company agreed to acquire all of the outstanding
capital
stock of Global Trek Xploration, following a 20.71 forward common stock
split of
Deeas. The closing of the transactions contemplated by the Exchange Agreement
and the closing of the March 2008 Financing described below occurred
on March
14, 2008 (the “Closing” or the “Closing Date”). Pursuant to the Exchange
Agreement, at the Closing, Deeas issued 18,000,001 post forward split
common
shares of Deeas for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Global
Trek
Xploration on the basis of 0.8525343 shares of Deeas for every one share
of
Global Trek Xploration. As a result, Global Trek Xploration became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Deeas. Concurrent with the Reverse Merger,
Deeas changed its name to GTX Corp.
7
As
a
result of this Exchange Agreement, the Selling Shareholders acquired
approximately 50% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the
Company. For accounting purposes, the merger was treated as an
acquisition of Deeas and a recapitalization of Global Trek
Xploration. Global Trek Xploration is the accounting acquirer and the
results of its operations carryover. Accordingly, the operations of
Deeas are not carried over and have been adjusted to $0.
Concurrent
with the closing of this transaction, the Company cancelled 31,065,000
post
forward split common shares (1,500,000 pre split common shares) which
had been
held by the sole director and officer of the Company prior to the reverse
merger, completed a $2,000,000 private placement of units of the Company
at
$0.75 per unit (the “March 2008 Financing”) and converted a $1,000,000 Global
Trek Xploration bridge loan and interest into units of the Company at
$0.75 per
unit.

SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
|
Revenue
Recognition
Revenue
is recognized when earned. Revenue related to licensing agreements is
recognized
over the term of the agreement. Revenue for services and products are
recognized
as the services are rendered and the products are shipped.
Revenues
recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008
were
received from one customer primarily for sale of approximately 900 gpVector™
Powered Athlete Tracking Systems. Revenues recognized during the three
and nine
months ended September 30, 2007 were received from one customer in connection
with a licensing agreement which was terminated.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
For
purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include operating
accounts, money market funds, and securities with original maturities
of three
months or less when purchased. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents
approximates fair value, given the short maturity of those instruments.
The cash
and cash equivalents at September 30, 2008 are principally held by one
institution which insures the Company’s individual accounts with the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") up to $100,000 and the Securities
Investor Protection Corporation (“SIPC”) up to $500,000. At September
30, 2008, the Company had uninsured cash deposits in excess of the FDIC
or SIPC
insurance limit of approximately $2.0 million. As of September 30, 2008,
no
losses related to these uninsured amounts have been incurred. As of today’s date
all of the Company’s cash deposits are fully insured.
Stock-based
Compensation
Stock
based compensation expense is recorded in accordance with SFAS 123R (Revised
2004), Share-Based
Payment,
for
stock and stock options awarded in return for services rendered. The
expense is
measured at the grant-date fair value of the award and recognized as
compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the service period,
which is
the vesting period. The Company estimates forfeitures that it expects
will occur
and records expense based upon the number of awards expected to
vest.
8
Development
Stage Company
During
the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company no longer met the
qualifications as a development stage company as defined in Financial
Accounting
Standards Board Statement No. 7. Accordingly, reporting as a development
stage
company is no longer deemed necessary.

March
2008 Financing
On
March
13, 2008, concurrent with the reverse merger described in Note 1, we
completed
the sale of 2,666,668 units at $0.75 per unit, each unit consisting of
one share
of common stock and one stock purchase warrant. Each warrant is exercisable
into
an additional common share at $1.25 per share.
Jupili
provided a bridge financing to Global Trek Xploration of $1,000,000 pursuant
to
a convertible loan agreement. The $1,000,000 loan plus accrued interest
of
$30,750 was converted into 1,374,334 units of the Company on the same
terms and
conditions as the private placement noted above.
9
The
Company paid Jupili a success fee of 2% of the aggregate amount of the
March
2008 Financing and the Bridge Financing of $60,000. Jupili has guaranteed
that
no less than 1,000,000 warrants will be exercised in cash on or before
January
14, 2009, otherwise the Company shall have the right to compel Jupili
to
purchase 1,000,000 common shares of the Company at $1.25 per share.
The
issuance of the Units in connection with the March 2008 Financing and
upon
conversion of the Jupili bridge loan is intended to be exempt from registration
under the Securities Act pursuant to Regulation S. As such, these issued
securities may not be offered or sold in the United States unless they
are
registered under the Securities Act, or an exemption from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act is available.
We
filed
a Registration Statement on May 12, 2008 with the SEC to register the
shares of
common stock and the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants issued
in the
March 2008 Financing and to register the shared issued upon conversion
of the
Jupili bridge loan (the “Registration Statement”). This Registration Statement
was subsequently amended and filed with the SEC on August 12, 2008. The
Prospectus was filed on August 14, 2008 and a Prospectus Supplement was
filed on
August 15, 2008 to incorporate the financial information for the period
ended
June 30, 2008.
May
2008 Financing
In
May
2008 we completed a sale to thirty-two (32) investors (“May 2008 Financing”) of
1,732,000 units (“May 2008 Units”) of the Company’s securities at a price of
$1.00 per unit. Each of the May 2008 Units consists of one common share
and one
share purchase warrant (“May 2008 Warrant”). Each May 2008 Warrant is
exercisable at an exercise price of $1.50 per share for a three-year
term. The
common stock and common shares underlying the May 2008 Warrants sold
in this May
2008 Financing have piggy-back registration rights.
We
agreed
to pay up to 10% cash and 10% warrant coverage as commissions to registered
broker-dealers or unregistered finders in connection with the May 2008
Financing. Mr.
Matthew Williams, the brother of our Chief Financial Officer, Murray
Williams,
received $20,300 and 20,300 May 2008 Warrants from GTX Corp for his services
as
a finder. We paid an aggregate of $26,950 and issued 26,950 May 2008
Warrants as
commissions to three (3) other unregistered finders. In addition we paid
Meyers
Associates LP, a registered broker-dealer, $76,500 in cash commission
and 71,500
May 2008 Warrants for the May 2008 Financing that they arranged for us.
Thus, in
total we paid $123,750 and 118,750 May 2008 Warrants to registered
broker-dealers or unregistered finders in connection with the May 2008
Financing. The
commissions are deemed a cost of capital and have been recorded at fair
value as
a reduction in additional paid-in capital in the accompanying interim
consolidated financial statements.
Common
Stock
In
conjunction with the Reverse Merger, all of the issued and outstanding
shares of
Global Trek Xploration at March 14, 2008 were exchanged to GTX Corp common
shares on the basis of .8525343 common shares of GTX Corp for every one
share of
Global Trek Xploration.
10
As
a
result of the Reverse Merger and the associated March 2008 Financing,
(i)
13,999,960 shares of Deeas Resources common shares were recapitalized
into GTX
Corp, (ii) the Jupili bridge loan of $1,000,000 plus accrued interest
of $30,750
was converted into 1,374,334 shares of common stock (as part of an
above-described “Unit”) at $0.75 per unit and (iii) 2,666,668 shares of common
stock (as part of an above-described “Unit”) were issued at $0.75 per unit in
the March 2008 Financing. In addition, as partial consideration for their
work
on the Exchange Agreement and the March 2008 Financing, our attorneys,
Richardson & Patel, were granted 80,000 units valued at $0.75 per unit.
The
Company sold 1,732,000 shares of stock to investors in connection with
the May
2008 Financing. Additionally, as
a bonus
for exceeding $1,000,000 of proceeds in this financing, Patrick E. Bertagna,
our
Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, Murray Williams, our Chief Financial
Officer, and Patrick Aroff, a member of our board of directors, were
each issued
40,000 shares of our common stock, and Louis Rosenbaum, a member of our
board of
directors, was issued 10,000 shares of our common stock. The grant-date
fair
value of these shares was $130,000 and is recorded as a cost of capital
in the
accompanying interim consolidated financial statements.
During
the first quarter of 2008, the Company issued 480,000 shares of common
stock
from the 2008 Equity Compensation Plan at a value of $0.75 per share
to various
members of management and consultants as compensation for services rendered,
the
grant-date fair value of which was estimated at $360,000. During the
third
quarter of 2008, the Company issued 151,616 shares of common stock from
the 2008
Equity Compensation Plan at values ranging from $0.85 to $1.60 per share

During
May 2008, the Company entered into a one year agreement with a third-party
public relations firm. The terms of the agreement include the issuance
of 17,500
shares of common stock to be paid to the public relations firm in 4 equal
installments. The 17,500 shares of common stock have been issued and
are held by
the company in escrow to be delivered to the public relations firm in
four equal
quarterly installments during the 1-year term of the agreement. The fair
value
of these shares was estimated to be $37,625 based
on
the market price of the securities, as quoted on the OTCBB on the date
of
issuance. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008,
$9,406 and
$15,677, respectively has been expensed in the accompanying interim consolidated
financial statements.
During

Equity Compensation Plan
for
grant and issuance to various consultants and/or employees in lieu of
paying
them cash for their services (the “Award Pool”).
The
Company’s Board of Directors created a committee (the “Stock Award Committee”)
that has the authority to grant and issue awards from the Award Pool.
During
August 2008, the Company engaged a consultant to perform research and
development work. The
number of shares consultant shall receive for each particular month during
shall
be equal to Twelve Thousand Dollars ($12,000) divided by the closing
price of
the Company’s common stock on the last day of each month the consultant provides
the services. As
of
September 30, 2008, 14,116 shares of common stock at $0.85 per share
had been
issued to the consultant for the month of August 2008. On October 1,
2008,
18,461 shares of common stock valued at $0.65 per share were issued to
the
consultant as payment for September 2008 services.

35,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (“Restricted Stock Award Pool”) for
grant and issuance to various consultants and/or employees in lieu of
paying
them cash for their services. These shares of common stock will be subject
to
restrictions upon transfer pursuant to Rule 144, as promulgated under
the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company’s Board of Directors created a
committee (the “Stock Award Committee”) that has the authority to grant and
issue awards from the Restricted Stock Award Pool. During
August 2008, the Company issued 8,000 shares of common stock at $1.60

compensation for services rendered. Prior to the Reverse Merger,
there

exercised for aggregate total proceeds of $398,799. The Company issued
a total

exercises. The Company offered a cashless exercise option to all of the
warrant

Various
warrant holders opted to accept the cashless exercise option for some
or all of
their warrants. In addition, approximately $186,000 of indebtedness and
related
accrued interest were settled through the exercise of these
warrants.
Of
the
2,666,668 warrants sold in connection with March 2008 Financing, 1,000,002

Common
Stock Options
On
March
14, 2008, we adopted the 2008 Equity Compensation Plan, the “2008 Plan,”
pursuant to which we are authorized to grant stock options intended to
qualify
as Incentive Stock Options, “ISO”, under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, non-qualified options, restricted and unrestricted
stock awards and stock appreciation rights to purchase up to 7,000,000
shares of
common stock to our employees, officers, directors and consultants, with
the
exception that ISOs may only be granted to employees of the Company and
it’s
subsidiaries, as defined in the 2008 Plan. The 2008 Plan shall be administered
by a committee consisting of two or more members of the Board of Directors
or if
a committee has not been elected, the Board of Directors of the Company
shall
serve as the committee.
As
of
September 30, 2008, stocks and options were granted to members of our
management
and consultants at a price equal to the fair market value of the common
stock at
the date of grant. The stock options vest one-third following the one
year
anniversary of the grant date with the remainder vesting monthly over
the
following two years or as otherwise determined by the Board of Directors
and
generally expire three years following the vesting date, if not
exercised.
The
Company recognizes option expense ratably over the vesting periods. For
the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company recorded
compensation expense related to options granted under the 2008 Plan of
$150,631
and $284,163, respectively.
The
fair
value of option grants was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing
model with the following assumptions:

The
Company has no history or expectation of paying dividends on

stock.
|
(2)
|
The
risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield
for a term
consistent with the expected life of the awards in effect at
the time of
grant.
|
(3)
|
The
Company estimates the volatility of its common stock at the
date of grant
based on the implied volatility of its common stock. The Company
used a
weighted average of trailing volatility and market based implied
volatility for the computation.
|
(4)
|
The
expected life of stock options granted under the Plan is based
on the
length of time from date of grant to the expiration date which
consists of
between 4 to 6 years based on the vest date of each option
grant.
The stock options expire 3 years from the date of
vest.
|

The
Plan
provides for the issuance of a maximum of 7,000,000 shares of which 1,781,923
were still available for issuance as of October 1, 2008.

Introduction
GTX
Corp
was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 7, 2006 under its former name
“Deeas Resources Inc.” Effective March 14, 2008, we completed a
reverse take over transaction with our wholly owned subsidiary, Global Trek
Xploration, a California corporation. As a result of the merger, we
changed our company’s name from “Deeas Resources Inc.” to “GTX Corp” and
currently operate through our wholly owned subsidiary, Global Trek
Xploration.
Operations
Overview
We
developed and patented an integrated miniaturized 2-Way
GPS™
tracking and location aware technology for consumer products and applications.
As the underlying technology provider, the Company works with branded license
partners to deliver these innovative solutions to the consumer in
a wide
variety of wearable location devices. Our gpVector
Personal
Location Services (“GPS/PLS") suite delivers remote real-time oversight of loved
ones and high-value assets. Our licensing model and a user friendly format
allows us to transparently embed the technology into a wide variety of branded
consumer products. In addition to geo spatial location-reporting, which
provides peace of mind to caretakers, the Company’s scalable gpVector™
technology platform is also designed to deliver new and innovative life style
based applications. Some of those are interactive real-time gaming and
performance, health / exercise monitoring and geo specific social networking.
The miniaturization of the electronics offers a whole new category of portable
hosts to deliver a wide range of new people-oriented wearable 2 way GPS/PLS
solutions.
17
GTX
Corp’s vision at the inception of the Company was GPS-enabled footwear for young
children and the elderly with dementia. The Company has expanded that to
now
include embedded 2-Way GPS™ technology providing an extensive gpVector™
platform. Additional deployments in progress include exercise monitoring,
law enforcement, maritime applications, military and first responders, cellular
handsets for social networking, automotive / commercial / payload tracking
and
many others. The Company holds one patent, has two that have been noticed
for
allowance by the USPTO and has fifteen additional patents pending.
With
six
years of research and development, key strategic technology partnerships,
and a
diligent ongoing policy of intellectual property protection, GTX Corp continues
its efforts to advance the wearable GPS industry and the 2-Way GPS/PLS space.
GTX Corp’s approach is to be the value-added supporting brand to master consumer
brands. The driving goal of the Company is to utilize advanced assisted GPS,
cellular and Internet technologies, then integrate that technology with branded
consumer products and collectively deliver solutions which will benefit people
and society.

Revenues
We
generated revenues of approximately $235,000 during the three months ended
September 30, 2008 compared to $0 during the three months ended September
30,
2007. Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 increased by
approximately $348,000 or 1,339% during the nine months ended September 30,
2008
compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2007. The increase is primarily
due to the sale of approximately 900 gpVector™ Powered Athlete Tracking Systems
at $239 per unit during September 2008. Revenues during the nine months ended
September 30, 2008, also include the billing of monthly service and licensing
fees to My Athlete, LLC (“MA”) as well as various design and enhancement
services to allow our GPS technology to better integrate into MA’s products. MA
also purchased website design and functionality services from GTX in
anticipation of their launch in the third quarter of 2008. We had no active
customers in 2007 and the revenue recognized during the nine months ended
September 30, 2007 was received from one customer in connection with a licensing
agreement which had been terminated.
Cost
of goods sold
Cost
of
goods sold during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 consists
primarily of the cost of raw materials utilized in the manufacturing of the
gpVector™ Powered Athlete Tracking Systems sold during September 2008 to MA.
Additionally, the cost of the design and enhancement services we provided
to MA
to allow our GPS technology to better integrate into their products and the
cost
to provide this customer website design and functionality services are included
in cost of goods sold as of September 30, 2008.
Operating
expenses
Our
operating expenses include our salaries and professional fees, stock based
compensation expense, research and development and general and administrative
costs. Total operating expenses for the three months ended September 30,
2008
increased approximately $778,000 or 295% as compared to total operating expenses
for the three months ended September 30, 2007. Total operating
expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 increased approximately
$2,011,000 or 229% as compared to total operating expenses for the nine months
September 30, 2007. The increase in operating expenses is primarily
attributed to the following:
Ÿ
|
Stock
based compensation expense was approximately $388,000 and $953,000
for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively. On
March 14,
2008, the Company adopted its 2008 Equity Compensation Plan (“2008 Plan”)
in which we are authorized to grant stock options, stock awards
and stock
appreciation rights to our employees, officers, directors and consultants,
as defined in the 2008 Plan. In conjunction with the 2008 Plan,
as of
September 30, 2008 we had granted options to purchase a total of
4,568,000
shares of common stock resulting in stock based compensation expense
of
approximately $151,000 and $284,000 for the three and nine months
ended
September 30, 2008. Additionally, we granted from our 2008 Plan
a total of
151,616 and 631,616 shares of common stock valued at $199,750 and
$559,750
during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively
to
various employees and consultants. We also granted stock and/or
warrants
to consultants (outside of the 2008 Plan) for services rendered
resulting
in stock based compensation expense of approximately $22,000 and
$97,000
during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008. Stock
based
compensation expense was minor during the three and nine months
ended
September 30, 2007.
|
19
Ÿ
|
Professional
fees increased approximately $135,000 and $493,000 for the three
and nine
months ended September 30, 2008, respectively, in comparison
to the
comparable periods in fiscal 2007 primarily due to legal and
accounting
fees related to the Reverse Merger, the Financing, the Additional
Financing, the filing of the Registration Statement and the filing
of
applications for numerous patents.
|
Ÿ
|
Salaries
increased approximately $140,000 and $355,000 for the three and
nine
months ended September 30, 2008, respectively, in comparison
to the
comparable periods in fiscal 2007. The increase is primarily
due to the
hiring of various employees during the later part of 2007 and
the first
quarter of 2008, as well as an increase in the salaries of many
of the
long standing employees.
|
Other
Income (Expense)
During
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, we recognized $14,000
and
$31,659, respectively of interest income as compared to $0 and $1,686 recognized
during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007. This increase
is
attributable to our increase in cash and cash equivalents resulting from
the
Financing and Additional Financing which are substantially held in short-term
(maturities of less than three months) commercial paper and money market
investments that are all fully insured.
During
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, we reported interest
expense
of $0 and $62,511, respectively as compared to $1,960 and $5,918 for the
three
months and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively. The
reported increase is primarily attributed to a $40,000 fee paid in conjunction
with the Financing which closed on March 14, 2008 as well as interest expense
on
the Note Payable to Jupili accruing at 10% per annum during the first quarter
of
2008. The Note Payable was converted to common stock in connection with
the
Exchange Transaction during March 2008.
Net
Loss
During
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, we reported a net loss
of
approximately $986,000 and $2,849,000, respectively as compared to a net
loss of
approximately $266,000 and $858,000 for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2007, respectively, due primarily to an increase in operating
expenses as discussed above.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Net
cash
used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30,
2008 was
approximately $69,000 resulting from the purchase of property and equipment.
The
Company utilized no cash for investing purposes during the nine months
ended
September 30, 2007.
20
Net
cash
provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September
30, 2008
and 2007 was approximately $4,007,000 and $282,000, respectively. The increase
is due to the Company issuing 4,398,668 shares of common stock resulting
in
proceeds of $3,732,000 and receiving $398,800 from the exercise of warrants
during 2008.
We
currently rely on cash flows from financing activities to fund our capital
expenditures and to support our working capital requirements. We expect
that
future cash requirements will principally be for capital expenditures and
working capital requirements.
Future
Financings
As
a
result of our reverse merger with Global Trek Xploration, we began operating
as
a GPS technology company as of March 14, 2008. We are focused on the development
of a personal location device system (GpVector™) for licensing out to technology
partners seeking to enable their products with GPS tracking capabilities.
We had
our initial launch of the GpVector™
during
the third calendar quarter of 2008. Since inception, we have generated
significant losses. As of September 30, 2008, we had an accumulated deficit
of
approximately $6,890,000. As a consolidated entity, we expect to incur
continual
losses until sometime in calendar year 2009.
We
have a
limited history of operations. To date, operations have been funded primarily
through personal loans from shareholders, the private placement of our
common
stock and convertible notes. As of September 30, 2008, we had $2,645,658
in cash
and cash equivalents. We believe that our available cash and cash equivalents
will be sufficient to fund anticipated levels of operations for the next
twelve
months.
Over
the
next six months, we expect to devote approximately $250,000 to continue
our
research and development efforts to include all aspects of hardware, software
and interface customization, and website development. In addition, during
that
time period we expect to expend approximately $120,000 to develop our sales,
marketing and manufacturing programs associated with the commercialization
and
licensing of the GpVector™
technology.
We expect to fund general overhead requirements using cash on hand.
Our
funding requirements will depend on numerous factors, including:
· |
Costs
involved in the completion of the hardware, software and interface
customization, and website necessary to commence the commercialization
of
the GpVector™;
|
· |
The
costs of outsourced manufacturing;
|
· |
The
costs of licensing activities, including product marketing and
advertising; and
|
· |
Our
revenues from product sales and the licensing of the GpVector™
technology.
|
As
noted
above, based on budgeted expenditures, we believe that we will have sufficient
liquidity to satisfy our cash requirements for the next twelve months.
If our
existing resources prove to be insufficient to satisfy our liquidity
requirements during that timeframe, we will need to raise additional external
funds through the sale of additional equity or debt securities. In any
event, as
noted above, we may need to raise additional funds during the next 12 months
to
finance the costs of ongoing research and development and related expenses,
as
well as sales and marketing expenses. The sale of additional equity securities
will result in additional dilution to our shareholders. Sale of debt securities
could involve substantial operational and financial covenants that might
inhibit
our ability to follow our business plan. Additional financing may not be
available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we are
unable to
obtain additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of,
delay or
eliminate some or all of our planned research, development and commercialization
activities, which could harm our financial conditions and operating
results.
21
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
There
are
no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to
have a
current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial
condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital
expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
The
financial statements of our company have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Because
a precise
determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events,
the preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily involves
the
use of estimates which have been made using careful judgment.
The
financial statements have, in management’s opinion, been properly prepared
within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the
significant accounting policies summarized below.
We
have
identified the following critical accounting policies that are most important
to
the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and
that
require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a
result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are
inherently uncertain. The following is a review of the more critical accounting
policies and methods used by us:
Revenue
Recognition
Revenue
is recognized when earned. Revenue for products and services are recognized
as
the products are shipped and the services are rendered. Revenue related
to
licensing agreements is recognized over the term of the agreement.
Inventory
Inventory
consists of finished units and various components that go into the final
product
such as antennas, batteries, control boards, SIM card holders, etc. Inventory
is
valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value.
The
Company evaluates its inventory for excess and obsolescence on a regular
basis.
In preparing the evaluation the Company looks at the expected demand for
the
product, as well as changes in technology, in order to determine whether
or not
a reserve is necessary to record the inventory at net realizable value.
After
performing a review of the inventory as of September 30, 2008, we determined
that the net realizable value is greater than the cost thus inventory is
recorded at cost as of September 30, 2008. If actual market conditions
are less
favorable than those projected by management, inventory write-downs may
be
required.
Development
Stage Company
During
the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company no longer met the
qualifications as a development stage company as defined in Financial Accounting
Standards Board Statement No. 7. Accordingly, reporting as a development
stage
company is no longer deemed necessary.
22
Recently
Issued Accounting Standards
SFAS
No.
157- In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement 157, “Fair
Value Measurements”.
This
Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair
value
in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures
about fair value measurements. This Statement applies under other accounting
pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, the Board
having
previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value
is the
relevant measurement attribute. Accordingly, this Statement does not require
any
new fair value measurements. However, for some entities, the application
of this
Statement will change current practice. This Statement is effective for
financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15,
2007,
and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has adopted
this
standard.
SFAS
No.
159- In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, The
Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including
an amendment
of FASB Statement No. 115.
This
Statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments
and
certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial
reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility
in
reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently
without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. This Statement
is
expected to expand the use of fair value measurement, which is consistent
with
the Board’s long-term measurement objectives for accounting for financial
instruments. This Statement applies to all entities, including not-for-profit
organizations. Most of the provisions of this Statement apply only to entities
that elect the fair value option. This statement is effective as of the
first
fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company has adopted
this
standard.
As
a
“smaller reporting company,” we are not required to provide the information
under this Item 3.
ITEM 4T. CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under
the
supervision and with the participation of our management, including our
principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted
an
evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure
controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of the end of the period covered
by this
report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based upon the evaluation, our principal
executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the Evaluation
Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective. Disclosure
controls are controls and procedures designed to reasonably ensure that
information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange
Act, such as this report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported
within
the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls
include controls and procedures designed to reasonably ensure that such
information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including
our
chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to
allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes
in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
There
were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that
occurred
during the quarterly period covered by this report that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control
over financial reporting.
23
ITEM 1. LEGAL
PROCEEDINGS.
We
know
of no material, existing or pending legal proceedings against us, nor are
we
involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or material pending
litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers
or
affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse
party or
has a material interest adverse to our company.
ITEM
1A. RISK FACTORS.
As
a
“smaller reporting company”, we are not required to provide disclosure under
this Item 1A.
ITEM
2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF
PROCEEDS.
On
May
16, 2008, we entered into a consulting agreement with Vista Partners, LLC
for
consulting services whereby we agreed to issue an aggregate of 17,500 shares
