NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. |
Basis of Presentation |
The consolidated financial statements for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 have been prepared by us without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial
position, results of operations, and cash flows as of June 30, 2009 and 2008, and for the periods then ended, have been made. Those adjustments consist of normal and recurring adjustments. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008, has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet as of that date.
Certain information and note disclosures normally included in our annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with a reading of the financial statements and notes thereto
included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2009, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
2. |
Supplemental Cash Flow Information |
Cash paid for interest for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, was $4,417 and $2,998, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company had non-cash transactions related to share based payments covered by Statement of Financial Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123R. These transactions
are described in greater detail in Note 4.
3. |
Stockholders’ Equity |
In the six months ended June 30, 2008, we issued 150,000 shares of common stock and received procees of $56,250 in connection with the exercise of stock options.
4. |
Share-Based Payments |
The Company accounts for stock based transactions using SFAS No. 123R (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, which requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. The Company recorded $125,504 in compensation
expense in the six month period ended June 30, 2009 and $345,288 in the six month period ended June 30, 2008 related to stock based transactions.
The Company recorded $113,892 and $320,372 in compensation expense in the periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, related to options issued under its stock-based incentive compensation plans. This includes expense related to both options issued in the current year
and options issued in prior years for which the requisite service period for those options includes the current year. The fair value of these options was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Information related to the assumptions used in this model is set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. For options issued in 2009, approximately the same assumptions were used. The balance of the stock based compensation expense related to
restricted shares issued as compensation to non-employee Directors.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is management’s discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected our financial position and operating results during the periods included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements that we believe are within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which are intended to be covered by the safe harbors created by such acts. For this purpose, any statements that are not statements
of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements, including the statements under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" regarding our strategy, future operations, future expectations or future estimates, financial position and objectives of management. Those statements in this Form 10-Q containing the words "believes," "anticipates," "plans," "expects" and similar expressions constitute forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking
statements contain such identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions relating to our operations, results of operations, competitive factors, shifts in market demand and other risks and uncertainties.
Although we believe that the assumptions underlying our forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate and actual results may differ from those indicated by the forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-Q. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the
forward-looking statements included in this Form 10-Q, you should not consider the inclusion of such information as a representation by us or anyone else that we will achieve such results. Moreover, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting such forward-looking statements.
Six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008
OVERVIEW
We are primarily a nanotechnology company engaged in the performance of services and development of technologies based principally on our intellectual property. During all periods presented, our primary revenues were earned as a result of reimbursed research expenditures at our Applied Nanotech, Inc. (“ANI”)
subsidiary. As more fully discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, we expect to incur additional research and development expenses throughout 2009 in developing our technology. We are focused on licensing our technology and obtaining sufficient revenue to cover our ongoing research expenditures.
OUTLOOK
We expect our present cash balances, which are approximately $800,000 as of the date of this filing, when combined with known revenue sources, to enable us to operate at least into October 2009, and we expect to sign additional contracts which could extend that period further. We have a plan to achieve profitability
in 2009, and that plan anticipated a loss in the first quarter, but profit in the second quarter. A critical component of that plan is the receipt of license fees – either in the form of an upfront payment, or from ongoing royalties as a result of product sales by our licensees. We signed a license in July 2009 that we had anticipated would be signed in the second quarter. It included an upfront payment of $500,000 which was received in July; however, our plan anticipated an up-front payment of $1.5 million.
We have reduced our planned expenditures for the year; however, to achieve profitability, we will have to obtain additional revenue to make up for this shortfall of $1.0 million.
At the present time, there can be no assurance that we will achieve our plan for profitability in 2009, or even break-even, or that expected revenue sources will all occur as planned. It is not possible for us to achieve profitability without license fees at our present level of activity. In order to achieve profitability
solely based on research revenues, our research revenue would have to more than double from our expected level for 2009, and the majority of the revenue would have to come from non-governmental sources. The mix of revenues received could also cause the revenues required to reach break-even to increase. If revenue producing projects require unanticipated expenses, or heavier than anticipated use of outside services and materials, we may be unable to achieve profitability at the expected level of revenues. We
believe that we have the ability to continue to raise funding, if necessary, to enable us to continue operations until we reach profitability.
8
ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (cont.)
This plan is based on current development plans, current operating plans, the current regulatory environment, historical experience in the development of electronic products and general economic conditions. Changes could occur which would cause certain assumptions on which this plan is based to be no longer valid. If adequate
funds are not available from operations, or other sources of financing, we may have to eliminate, or reduce substantially, expenditures for research and development, testing and production of its products, or obtain funds through arrangements with other entities that may require us to relinquish rights to certain of our technologies or products. Such results could materially and adversely affect us.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
During the six months ended June 30, 2009, we received several new contracts which added to our revenue backlog. We received six separate phase I government contracts totaling approximately $570,000. Successful completion of phase I contracts often leads to phase II contacts that can range in amount from $500,000 to
$1.0 million in amount each. In March 2009, we also received a two year $400,000 contract from the Bird Foundation, a joint entity funded by the governments of the U.S. and Israel to accelerate the development of nanoparticles to be used in our conductive ink project. In April 2009, we received a new contract for sensor development from a natural gas trade association. This contract, in the amount of approximately $550,000, will cover a one year period.
In July 2009, we signed an exclusive license agreement for conductive copper inks with one of our strategic partners, a leading industrial chemical products company in Japan for manufacturing and commercializing nano-copper inks and pastes. The agreement calls for an upfront
payment of $1.5 million, of which $500,000 was received in July 2009 and $1.0 million is due in June 2010. Under the terms of the agreement, we will also receive a royalty of 4% of sales of the conductive copper inks.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
There are no recent accounting pronouncements that we have not implemented that are expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
Our cash position decreased during the period. At June 30, 2009 we had cash and cash equivalents in the amount of $467,746 as compared with cash and cash equivalents of $710,111 at December 31, 2008. This decrease in cash is primarily the result of cash used in operating activities.
We used net cash in financing activities of $18,365 during the six months ended June 30, 2009 (the “2009 Period”), as compared with cash flow from financing activities of $41,952 during the six months ended June 30, 2008 (the “2008 Period”). The cash flow in the 2008 Period was the result of the
exercise of stock options, partially offset by payments on capital leases. The cash used in the 2009 Period was the result of payments on capital leases.
Our net cash used in operating activities decreased from approximately $2.0 million in the 2008 Period to approximately $200,000 in the 2009 Period. This is primarily the result of operating factors discussed below in the “Results of Operations”, offset by the positive impact of working capital items. Our accounts
receivable decreased by almost $450,000 during the 2009 Period, of which $300,000 was related to the second payment due on a license agreement signed in October 2008. In addition, our customer deposits and deferred revenue increased by approximately $280,000. This represents payments received from customers prior to the time that the revenue is recognized for financial statement purposes. We expect our cash used in operations to remain at significantly lower levels than in the 2008 Period as a result of increased
revenue and reduced expenses.
Cash used in investing activities in both periods was insignificant and related to the purchase of capital equipment. We expect cash used in investing activities to remain at relatively insignificant levels for the balance of 2009.
9
ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (cont.)
Historically, the principal source of our liquidity has been funds received from exempt offerings of common stock; however, we have been able to avoid the need to raise any equity through stock sales since April 2007. Our current cash balance as of the date of this
filing is approximately $800,000. In the event that we do need additional funds, we may seek to sell additional debt or equity securities. We are currently exploring some debt alternatives to increase our liquidity. While we expect to be able to obtain funds needed for operations, there can be no assurance that any financing alternatives could be arranged on commercially acceptable terms. We believe that our success in reaching profitability will be dependent on our patent portfolio and upon the viability of
products using our technology and their acceptance in the marketplace, as well as our ability to obtain additional debt or equity financings in the future, if needed.
We expect to continue to incur substantial expenses for research and development ("R&D"). Further, we believe that certain products that may be developed by potential licensees of our technology may not be available for commercial sale or routine
use for a period of one to two years. Others are expected to be available in late 2009 or early 2010. While we would likely receive initial license payments, ongoing royalty streams related to some licenses may not be available until potential licensees have introduced products using our technology. Therefore, it is possible that the commercialization of our existing and proposed products may require additional capital in excess of our current funding. We do, however, as discussed, have a plan to operate profitably
in 2009 based on the receipt of research funding, license agreements, and other revenues. Achievement of at least break-even would enable us to continue our research without seeking additional debt or equity financing once break-even or profitability is attained.
Because the timing and receipt of revenues from the license or royalty agreements will be tied to the achievement of certain product development, testing and marketing objectives, which cannot be predicted with certainty, there may be substantial fluctuations in
our results of operations. If revenues do not increase as rapidly as anticipated, or if product development and testing require more funding than anticipated, we may be required to curtail our operations or seek additional financing from other sources at some point in the future. The combined effect of the foregoing may prevent us from achieving sustained profitability for an extended period of time.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Our net loss for the second quarter ended June 30, 2009 was $654,027 as compared with the loss of $1,345,041 for the same period last year. Our net loss of $1,487,141 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was lower than the loss of $2,092,620 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. This decreased loss was the result of
reasons set forth below. We expect our quarterly loss to be further reduced in the third and fourth quarters of 2009.
Our revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 totaled $922,097 compared to $853,234 for the same quarter of 2008. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2009 (the “2009 Period”), our revenues were $1,746,622 as compared with $1,723,248 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 (the “2008 Period”),
a slight decrease. The revenues in both periods were all from ANI and substantially all the result of reimbursed research expenditures. The majority of revenues in both periods came primarily from government contracts. At the present stage of our development, significant conclusions cannot be drawn by comparing revenues from period to period; however, we would expect the revenue for the balance of 2009 to increase above the level of the first six months. Our business strategy is built on developing a royalty
stream from licensing our intellectual property. To supplement this, we also seek funding from both governmental and private sources to help fund our research. Until we are able to develop a steady revenue stream from royalties, our revenues will tend to fluctuate greatly from quarter to quarter. Our private research funding tends to come in large amounts at sporadic times.
We have a revenue backlog of approximately $3.2 million as of the date of this filing, similar to our backlog of approximately $3.4 million as of June 30, 2008, and we expect our revenue to remain at or above current levels in future quarters as a result of this backlog. Our ability to perform continued research, or fulfill
our backlog, will not require additional personnel. We do not anticipate hiring any additional people for the balance of the year, unless we receive significant new revenues.
We incurred research and development expenses of $1,815,331 in the 2009 Period, which was substantially lower than the amount of $2,389,891 incurred in the 2008 Period. This reflects elimination of almost all research spending not associated with a revenue producing project. We expect research and development expenditures
to gradually increase for the remainder of the year as additional new funded projects begin. Significant new revenue producing research programs beyond those already identified could, however, cause research and development expenditures to increase further.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (cont.)
Our selling, general, and administrative expenses were $1,421,492 for the 2009 Period, compared with $2,062,008 for the 2008 Period – a decrease of approximately $640,000. Included in the 2008 Period are approximately $200,000 of litigation related expenses, while there
were no such expenses in 2009. The remainder of the decrease in selling, general, and administrative expenses related to our wide ranging cost reduction efforts.
Our interest income is insignificant, but decreased during the 2009 Period as a result of a lower average level of invested cash balances. Our interest income results from the investment of excess funds in short term interest bearing instruments, primarily certificates of deposit, commercial paper, and money market funds.
We expect our interest income to remain at insignificant levels for the balance of 2009. Our interest expense was insignificant in both periods and is expected to remain so for the balance of the year.
During the 2009 Period we had a gain of $6,000 related to payments received related to intellectual property sold by our Electronic Billboard Technology, Inc. subsidiary in 2006. It is possible that we will receive additional payments related to this agreement in future quarters and future years; however, the amount
of such payments, if any, can not be predicted. During the 2008 Period, we also had a gain of $100,000 from the sale of certain excess patents, which we were no longer using and which did not relate to any of our current technology platforms. The 2008 Period also included a gain of $500,000 from a partial settlement related to the Keesmann litigation, which is discussed in greater detail in our annual report on form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We do not use any derivative financial instruments for hedging, speculative, or trading purposes. Our exposure to market risk is currently immaterial.
ITEM 4. 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 this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the material information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms relating
to the Company, including, our consolidated subsidiaries, and was made known to them by others within those entities, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared.
In addition, there were no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the Evaluation Date. We have not identified any material weaknesses in our internal controls, and therefore, no corrective actions were taken.
