Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of GTX have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and applicable regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of financial position and results of operations have been included. Our operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the accounts of GTX Corp and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

On June 22, 2018, as previously disclosed, the Company effected a 1-for-75 reverse stock split of its common stock. All references to shares of common stock outstanding, average number of shares outstanding and per share amounts in these consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements have been restated to reflect the reverse stock split on a retroactive basis.

Going Concern

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred a net loss of $1,046,330 and used cash in operations of $289,719 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and as of June 30, 2018 has a stockholders’ deficit of $2,859,924. The Company anticipates further losses in the development of its business. 

The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has also included explanatory language in their opinion accompanying the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017. The Company’s financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of debt or equity is unknown. The obtainment of additional financing, the successful development of the Company’s contemplated plan of operations, or its attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements requires the use of estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and contingencies. These estimates include, but are not limited to, estimates related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation, tangible and intangible long-term asset valuation, warranty and other obligations and commitments. Estimates are updated on an ongoing basis and are evaluated based on historical experience and current circumstances. Changes in facts and circumstances in the future may give rise to changes in these estimates which may cause actual results to differ from current estimates.

Fair Value Estimates

Pursuant to the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 820, “Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, the Company records its financial assets and liabilities at fair value. ASC No. 820 provides a framework for measuring fair value, clarifies the definition of fair value and expands disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. ASC No. 820 establishes a three-tier hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:

Level 1—Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

Level 2—Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level 1) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the asset/liability’s anticipated life.

Level 3—Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

The carrying values for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value due to their short maturities. The Company uses Level 2 inputs for its valuation methodology for the derivative liabilities.

Derivative Instruments

Our debt or equity instruments may contain embedded derivative instruments, such as conversion options, which in certain circumstances may be required to be bifurcated from the associated host instrument and accounted for separately as a derivative instrument liability.

Our derivative instrument liabilities are re-valued at the end of each reporting period, with changes in the fair value of the derivative liability recorded as charges or credits to income, in the period in which the changes occur. For bifurcated conversion options that are accounted for as derivative instrument liabilities, we determine the fair value of these instruments using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This model requires assumptions related to the remaining term of the instrument and risk-free rates of return, our current Common Stock price and expected dividend yield, and the expected volatility of our Common Stock price over the life of the option.

Comprehensive Loss

FASB ASC 220 establishes rules for reporting and displaying comprehensive loss and its components. Comprehensive loss is the sum of net loss as reported in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss transactions as reported in the consolidated statement of stockholders’ deficit. Comprehensive loss transactions that currently apply to the Company result from unrealized losses on available for sale investments.

Reclassifications

For comparability, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified, where appropriate, to conform to the financial statement presentation used in 2017. These reclassifications have no impact on net loss.

Revenue

Effective January 1, 2018 the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) no. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606). Under the update, revenue is recognized based on a five-step model. The core principle of the model is that revenue will be recognized when the transfer of promised goods or services to customers is made in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The adoption of this standard did not result in any changes to previously reported amounts.

We account for revenue in accordance with ASC 606. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer, and is the unit of account in ASC 606. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. The contract transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. We do not have any significant payment terms, as payment is received shortly after goods are delivered or services are provided.

We derive our revenues primarily from hardware sales, subscription services fees, IP licensing and professional services fees. Hardware includes our SmartSole, Military and other Stand-Alone Devices. Subscription services revenues consist of fees from customers accessing our cloud-based software solutions and subscription or license fees for our platform. Professional services and other revenues consist primarily of fees from implementation services, configuration, data services, training and managed services related to our solutions. IP licensing is related to our agreement with Inventergy whereby we have partnered in order to monetize our IP portfolio (see, Note 3, below).

Product sales

At the inception of each contract, we assess the goods and services promised in our contracts and identify each distinct performance obligation. The Company recognizes revenue upon the transfer of control of promised products or services to the customer in an amount that depicts the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to for the related products or services. For the large majority of the Company’s sales, transfer of control occurs once product has shipped and title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer.

Some of our contracts have multiple performance obligations, including contracts that combine hardware with post-implementation customer support. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, we allocate the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation using our best estimate of the standalone selling price of each distinct good or service in the contract. The primary method used to estimate standalone selling price is the expected cost plus a margin approach, under which we estimate our expected costs of satisfying a performance obligation and add an appropriate margin for that distinct good or service. We also use the adjusted market approach whereby we estimate the price that customers in the market would be willing to pay. In assessing whether to allocate variable consideration to a specific part of the contract, we consider the nature of the variable payment and whether it relates specifically to its efforts to satisfy a specific part of the contract. Certain of our software implementation performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time, typically when customer acceptance is obtained.

Services Income

The Company’s software solutions are available for use as hosted application arrangements under subscription fee agreements without licensing perpetual rights to the software. Subscription fees from these applications are recognized over time on a ratable basis over the customer agreement term beginning on the date the Company’s solution is made available to the customer. Our subscription contracts are generally one to three months in length. Amounts that have been invoiced are recorded in accounts receivable and deferred revenues or revenues, depending on whether the revenue recognition criteria have been met.

The majority of our professional services arrangements are recognized on a time and materials basis. Professional services revenues recognized on a time and materials basis are measured monthly based on time incurred and contractually agreed upon rates. Certain professional services revenues are based on fixed fee arrangements and revenues are recognized based on the proportional performance method. In some cases, the terms of our time and materials and fixed fee arrangements may require that we defer the recognition of revenue until contractual conditions are met. Data services and training revenues are generally recognized as the services are performed.

Royalty Revenue

Royalty revenue recorded by the Company relates exclusively to the Company’s License and Partnership agreement with Inventergy which provides for ongoing royalties based on monetization of IP licenses. The Company recognizes revenue for royalties under ASC 606, which provides revenue recognition constraints by requiring the recognition of revenue at the later of the following: 1) sale or usage of the products or 2) satisfaction of the performance obligations. The Company has satisfied its performance obligations and therefore recognizes royalty revenue when the sales to which the royalties relate are completed.

Accounts receivable, net

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of any necessary allowance for doubtful accounts. A receivable is recognized in the period the Company provides the underlying services or when the right to consideration is unconditional. The balance of accounts receivable, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts, as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 is presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company established an allowance for doubtful accounts of $14,056 and $22,312 as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

Deferred revenue

Deferred revenue consists primarily of the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are recognized over a period of time basis. Billings associated with such items are typically completed upon the transfer of control of promised products or services to the customer and recorded to accounts receivable until payment is received. Deferred costs primarily refer to the recurring fees in excess of a $500 minimum that is prorated over the term of the contract. Deferred revenue also consists of advance payments from customers for uncompleted contracts.

Loss per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued, using the treasury stock method. Potential common shares are excluded from the computation when their effect is antidilutive.

For the periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the calculations of basic and diluted loss per share are the same because potential dilutive securities would have had an anti-dilutive effect. The potentially dilutive securities consisted of the following:

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 (ASU 2016-02), Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months, as well as the disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 requires recognition in the statement of operations of a single lease cost, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated over the lease term, generally on a straight-line basis. ASU 2016-02 requires classification of all cash payments within operating activities in the statement of cash flows. Disclosures are required to provide the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. The Company has not yet evaluated the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.

In June 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2018-07”). ASU 2018-07 expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. ASU 2018-07 also clarifies that Topic 718 does not apply to share-based payments used to effectively provide (1) financing to the issuer or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of a contract accounted for under Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). ASU 2018-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt the provisions of ASU 2018-07 in the quarter beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

3. JOINT VENTURE AND INVESTMENT IN EQUITY SECURITIES

Joint Venture Agreement

On June 16, 2016, the Company entered into a Definitive Agreement with Inventergy Innovations, LLC (“Inventergy”), a subsidiary of Inventergy Global, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVT). The Company partnered with Inventergy to monetize three (3) GTX Patents. Upon signing the Agreement, the Patents were assigned to an Inventergy subsidiary, and Inventergy assigned a 45% interest in the entity to GTX. Inventergy is also obligated to make a sequence of quarterly payments to GTX beginning in January 2017, which payments represent non-refundable advances against future royalty and other payments. Pursuant to a non-exclusive license back to GTX, GTX will still retain all use rights of the 3 patents. During the period ended June 30, 2018, the Company has received $12,500 as a non-refundable advance from Inventergy.

The Company uses the equity method to account for its 45% investment in the Inventergy subsidiary. Under the equity method, the Company recognizes its share of the earnings and losses of the subsidiary as they accrue instead of when they are realized. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company’s investment in the subsidiary was $0.

Investment in Equity Securities

As of June 30, 2018, we own 42,500 shares of common stock of INVT at a closing price of $0.0326, for a value of $1,386. The Company previously accounted for this as an investment in available for sale securities, and as such unrealized gains and losses were recorded as adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income.

In January 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities ("ASU 2016-01 using the modified retrospective transition method. Upon adoption, we reclassified $59,249 related to available-for-sale investment securities from accumulated other comprehensive income to accumulated deficit as a cumulative-effect adjustment. Under the new guidance, these securities will continue to be measured at fair value; however, the changes in unrealized net holding gains and losses will be reported in earnings. Comparative information continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for the period. The effect of the change for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was an increase to net loss of approximately $1,844, which is included in Other income (expense) on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In order to preserve cash for other working capital needs, various officers and members of management have agreed to accrue, and defer payment of, portions of their salaries since fiscal 2011. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company owed $94,886 and $0, respectively for such accrued wages which are included in accounts payable on the balance sheet.

5. DEBT

Convertible Notes

As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had a total of $1,174,875 and $923,875, respectively, of convertible notes payable, which consisted of the following:

The Company determined that since the conversion floor of these notes had no limit to the conversion price, the Company could no longer determine if it had enough authorized shares to fulfil its conversion obligation. As such, pursuant to current accounting guidelines, the Company determined that the conversion feature of these notes created a derivative with a fair value totaling $303,192 at the date of issuances and recorded it as a valuation discount to be amortized over the life of the notes. During the period ended June 30, 2018, the Company recognized a debt discount of $33,456 related to the note issued during the current period. Unamortized debt discount as of December 31, 2017 was $107,742. During the period ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded an amortization of debt discount of $142,584 and recorded it as interest expense. Unamortized debt discount as of June 30, 2018 was $11,477.

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2018, we issued 1,165,651 shares of common stock to convert $118,000 of outstanding convertible notes.

Convertible Notes Due to Related Parties

On September 30, 2016, management elected to convert accrued salaries into long-term convertible promissory notes. The balance of such note at December 31, 2016 was $438,997. On December 31, 2017, management elected to transfer additional accrued salaries into long-term convertible promissory notes, due on March 31, 2019, totaling $231,050 and are due 18 months after issuance. The notes bear a 10% annual interest rate. Management shall have the right, but not the obligation to convert up to 50% of the amount advanced and accrued interest into shares, warrants or options of common or preferred stock of the Company at $0.75 per share. As of December 31, 2017, outstanding balance on the convertible note was $670,047.

During the period ended June 30, 2018, the Company recognized additional notes with an aggregate amount of $214,499 which represent 50% of the related party notes that matured on March 31, 2018. The notes are due on March 31, 2019. Such amount was recorded as noncash financing cost during the six months ended June 30, 2018. As of June 30, 2018, the outstanding balance on the convertible promissory notes was $884,546.

On June 30, 2018 we had accrued $24,643 in interest expense on $670,047 of employee convertible notes at a rate of 10%.

Term loans

In 2015, the Company entered into an unsecured term loan agreement with a third party for an aggregate principal balance of $200,000 at an interest rate of 14% per annum. The term loan became due on April 14, 2017. The principal balance outstanding on the note as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $200,000 and is past due.

6. DERIVATIVE LIABILITY

Under authoritative guidance used by the FASB on determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock, instruments which do not have fixed settlement provisions are deemed to be derivative instruments. The Company has issued certain convertible notes whose conversion price is based on a future market price. However, since the number of shares to be issued is not explicitly limited, the Company is unable to conclude that enough authorized and unissued shares are available to share settle the conversion option.

As a result, the conversion option is classified as a liability and bifurcated from the debt host and accounted for as a derivative liability in accordance with ASC 815 and will be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations.

At December 31, 2017, the balance of the derivative liabilities was $261,172. During the period ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded a decrease in derivative liability of $33,456 and recorded an extinguishment of debt of $98,644 related to notes that were converted. During the period ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded an increase in derivative liability of $107,208. At June 30, 2018, the balance of the derivative liabilities was $303,192.

At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the derivative liabilities were valued using a probability weighted Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model with the following assumptions:

The risk-free interest rate was based on rates established by the Federal Reserve Bank. The Company uses the historical volatility of its common stock to estimate the future volatility for its common stock. The expected life of the conversion feature of the notes was based on the remaining contractual term of the notes. The expected dividend yield was based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends to its common stockholders in the past and does not expect to pay dividends to its common stockholders in the future.

7. EQUITY

Preferred Stock

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company authorized its preferred shares to have voting rights equal to two-thirds of all the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, shall be entitled to vote on all matters of the corporation, and shall have the majority vote of the board of directors. The subject preferred stock lacks any dividend rights, does not have liquidation preference, and is not convertible into common stock. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company issued one million shares to certain officers and board members. The Company retained a third-party valuation firm whose input was utilized in determining the related per share valuation of the preferred shares. Based on the valuation report, the fair value of the preferred shares was determined to be $0.0463 per share or an aggregate of $46,363.

Common Stock

On June 22, 2018, the Company effected 1-for-75 reverse stock split of its common shares. All share amounts and per share amounts have been have been retroactively restated to reflect the split as if it had occurred as of the earliest period presented.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we issued 2,565,651 shares of common stock to noteholders upon conversion of $149,500 convertible notes.

The Company issued the following shares of common stock during the three months ended June 30, 2018:

During the period ended June 30, 2018, the Company issued 80,667 shares of common stock for services rendered to various members of management, the Board of Directors, employees and consultants. The fair value of the shares was determined to be $17,770 and was recorded Stock-Based Compensation in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

Common Stock Warrants

Since inception, the Company has issued warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock to shareholders, consultants and employees as compensation for services rendered and/or through private placements.

A summary of the Company’s warrant activity and related information is provided below (the exercise price and the number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants have been adjusted to reflect a 1-for-75 reverse stock split.):

8. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 11, 2018, the Company’s 75-1 reverse of its common shares was approved by FINRA.

On July 18, 2018 a 6,667 share warrant priced at $1.125 and at a closing price of $0.1499 was converted into 458,395 shares of common stock.

On July 30, 2018 we received $35,000 from an accredited investor for a Convertible Promissory Agreement with the following terms. The Purchaser may convert the note after six months into common shares in the Company at a price equal to $0.75. The notes bear interest of 12% and is due and payable on demand.

On July 18, 2018, we amended a 4th quarter 2017 Note to reflect a change in conversion price from $0.002 to $0.02.

On August 3, 2018, we signed a contract with a reseller and strategic partner for securing government and private sector deals and acting as a non-exclusive reseller of the Company’s products and services. Under the terms of the one-year agreement, the partner received 250,000 warrants and will also receive sales commissions ranging from 3% to 12% depending on the sales transaction, and bonus warrants if the first transaction is valued at over $50,000.

On August 7, 2018, we paid down two fourth quarter of 2014 Convertible Notes by $1,000 each.

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

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Introduction

Unless otherwise noted, the terms “GTX Corp”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to the ongoing business operations of GTX Corp and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Global Trek Xploration, and LOCiMOBILE, Inc. Unless otherwise indicated, all information in this Form 10-Q gives effect to a 1-for-75 reverse stock split of GTX Corp’s common stock, that became effective as of 5:00 p.m. Nevada Time on June 22, 2018. All common shares and per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect such reverse stock split.

Operations

GTX Corp and its subsidiaries (Global Trek Xploration, Inc. and LOCiMOBILE, Inc.) are engaged in the design, development, manufacturing, distribution and sales of five (5) related products and services in the GPS and BLE wearable technology personal location and wandering assistive technology business. Through a proprietary enterprise (IoT) monitoring platform and licensing subscription business model, the Company offers a complete end to end solution of hardware, middleware, apps, connectivity, licensing and professional services, letting you know where or how someone or something is at the touch of a button, delivering safety, security and peace of mind in real-time.

Overview

The Company continues to focus on building channels of distribution and expanding its product line of embedded smart wearable GPS devices, Stand-Alone GPS devices and Digital Apps which all funnel into the GTX Corp IoT monitoring platform. Each product line is sold both direct to consumer (B2C) and business to business (B2B) through a global network of resellers, affiliates, distributors, nonprofit organizations, government agencies, police departments, manufacturers reps and retailers. The Company has been ramping up its product distribution and sales channels and, as of June 30, 2018, the Company had live units in the field and / or paying subscribers in over 35 countries, had 7 regional sales reps in the US, 6 retired and active professional athlete brand ambassadors, over 900 online affiliates, products being sold in several retail stores in the U.S. and UK, and 13 international distributors. Also, we have been issued a vendor number for reimbursement in 11 U.S. states and 2 countries (Canada and Norway). We have also applied for other State and Federal reimbursement codes, grants and private insurance reimbursement along with other health and municipal services in several other countries. If granted, the reimbursements would lower the price paid by customers for acquiring and owning our tracking products, which could result in an increase in users of our SmartSole and Stand-Alone devices. All product lines are sold with a monthly, quarterly or annual subscription service plan or licensing fees ranging from $2.00 to $35.00 per month. In addition to the subscription service fees the Company also generates revenues through IoT platform and IP licensing fees.

During the quarter ending June 30, 2018, the Company unveiled its strategic corporate initiatives to up list to the OTCQB, do a reverse split, secure a round of funding at a premium to market, and hire a new audit firm and communication team, as part of our comprehensive plan to make the public facing side of the business more reflective of the Company’s true value. As a result of this initiative, the Company appointed Weinberg & Company P.A. as its new independent registered public accountant, obtained a one-year commitment for approximately $900,000 of convertible note funding from an institutional investor, and effected a 1-for-75 reverse stock split.

During the period ending June 30, 2018 we launched several new products, including our new children’s size SmartSole, Invisabelt for toddlers and the Take –Along World Tracker. While we also advanced the development of our BioStride and Rifle tracker. With the addition of these 3 new products we significantly expanded our market reach on numerous fronts. First by adding kid’s products, we have the ability to further penetrate the autistic market and also address the market for children without disabilities. By launching the World Tracker, which is capable of operating seamlessly in over 180 countries (Japan and Korea excluded) at an introductory price of $89.00. we now offer a low price point global device aimed at more price sensitive customers or customers in under developed countries.

Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our interim consolidated financial statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 (“Q2 2018”) Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 (“Q2 2017”)

Revenues

For the three-month period ending June 30, 2018 overall revenues increased by 7%, with product revenues increasing by 7% or $5,484 over Q2 2017 primarily due to increased sales of our SmartSoles, products, while recurring revenues in Q2 2018 increased by 108% or $28,353 in comparison to Q2 2017. Consulting income from Inventergy Innovations, LLC (“Inventergy”) decreased 66% or $24,375, as we transitioned into the licensing and litigation phase (which reduced our consulting services and fees). However, if Inventergy’s litigation is successful, or if licensing contracts get signed, our revenue share of the Inventergy arrangement is expected to increase.

During the period ended June 30, 2018, the Company’s customer base and revenue streams were comprised of approximately 41% B2B (Wholesale Distributors and Enterprise Channels), 34% B2C (consumers and government agencies who bought on the behalf of consumers, through our online ecommerce platform and through Amazon, Google and iTunes), 9% IP (our monetization campaign with Inventergy from consulting, licensing and asserting our patents) and 16% Military and Law Enforcement. During the same period ending June 30, 2017, the Company’s customer base was comprised of approximately 51% B2B (Wholesale Distributors and Enterprise Institution, 30% Consumer or B2C and 19% IP (our monetization campaign from consulting, licensing and asserting), 0% in Military and Law Enforcement.

The Company’s goal is to generate sufficient ongoing recurring revenues to fund our operating expenses from (i) subscription fees for the use of our tracking products, and/or (ii) IP licensing fees. In this context, we had a 41% increase in international subscribers, a 21% increase in direct consumer sales, and a 22% increase in domestic recurring subscribers for Q2 2018 compared to Q2 2017.

Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold decreased by 29% or $17,010 during Q2 2018 in comparison to Q2 2017 primarily due to buying and manufacturing cost decreases related to new design and form factors. With the decrease in cost of goods related to hardware, the total gross margin, excluding the Inventergy payments, increased from 57% for the three-month period 2017 to 71% for the same period in 2018. As we increase our subscription base of monthly recurring fees, total overall gross margins are expected to increase accordingly.

Wages and benefits

Wages and benefits during Q2 2018 increased by 108% or $69,285 in comparison to Q2 2017. The increase is a direct result of hiring additional personnel to support a growing subscriber base, new product development, and servicing the military’s purchase orders and the recording of stockbased compensation related to this issuance of preferred shares to the Board of Directors. In addition, due to a growing economy and overall rising wages, we needed to increase the salaries of our entire engineering staff in order to stay competitive in the marketplace and maintain employee retention, which was critical to the manufacturing of our military and new line of children’s products.

Professional fees

Professional fees consist of costs attributable to consultants and contractors who primarily spend their time on legal, accounting, product development, business development, corporate advisory services and investor relations. Such costs decreased $25,640 or 30% during Q2 2018 as compared to Q2 2017, as noted above, we increased in-house wages but decreased professional fees. Part of the reduction was attributed to allocating more responsibilities from outside contractors and consultants to in-house personnel.

Sales and marketing expenses

Sales and marketing expenses temporarily decreased by 22% or $1,681 during Q2 2018 in comparison to Q2 2017, but are expected to ramp up as we begin to launch new products.

Research and development expenses

In Q2 2018 we had a $7,184 reduction in research and development expenses as we incurred limited non-recurring R&D expenses related to the development of our Military, Children’s and bio metric product lines. With all new products there are initial capital expenses in order to develop prototypes and bring the product to market. As products under development transition into production, the R&D surrounding those products typically decreases.

General and administrative

General and administrative costs during Q2 2018 decreased by $17,342 or 19% in comparison to Q2 2017 due to lower allowances and reserves for bad debt.

Other expense, net

Other expense, net, for Q2 were $434,127, primarily as a result of the non-cash losses on the extinguishment of debt, derivative liabilities, the amortization of debt discounts related to debt financings and the unrealized loss on available for sale securities. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had $303,192 in derivative liabilities. Other expense, net also includes interest expenses related to notes.

In the second quarter of 2017, we had other net income of $313,554 primarily as a result of the non-cash derivative liabilities and the amortization of debt discounts related to debt financings.

Net loss

In Q2 2018 the Company had a new loss of $682,267 compared to net income of $56,380 in Q2 of 2017. The net income in Q2 of 2017 was the result of the non-cash “other income” of $313,554. Strictly on an operational basis, the loss from operations decreased by 4% or $9,034 in Q2 of 2018 primarily from revenues and the associated gross margins generated by the sale of GPS SmartSoles devices, and the increases in revenues per subscriber (RPS) revenues.
