Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 – BACKGROUND

 

Background

 

The OLB Group, Inc. (“OLB” the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on November 18, 2004 and provides services through its wholly-owned subsidiaries.

 

The Company provides integrated financial and transaction processing services to businesses throughout the United States. Through its eVance Capital, Inc. subsidiary (“eVance”), the Company provides an integrated suite of third-party merchant payment processing services and related proprietary software enabling products that deliver credit and debit card-based internet payment processing solutions primarily to small and mid-sized merchants operating in physical “brick and mortar” business environments, on the internet and in retail settings requiring both wired and wireless mobile payment solutions. eVance operates as an independent sales organization (“ISO”) generating individual merchant processing contracts in exchange for future residual payments. As a wholesale ISO, eVance has a direct contractual relationship with the merchants and takes greater responsibility in the approval and monitoring of merchants than do retail ISOs and as a result, receives additional consideration for this service and risk. The Company’s Securus365, Inc. subsidiary operates as a retail ISO and receives residual income as commission for merchants it places with third party processors.

 

CrowdPay.us, Inc. (“CrowdPay”) is a Crowdfunding platform used to facilitate a capital raise anywhere from $1,000,0000 -$50,000,000 of various types of securities under Regulation D, Regulation Crowdfunding, Regulation A and the Securities Act of 1933. To date, the activities of this subsidiary have been insignificant.

 

Omnisoft.io, Inc. (“Omnisoft”) operates a software platform for small merchants The Omnicommerce applications work on an iPad, mobile device and the web and allows you to sell a store’s products in a physical, retail setting. To date, the activities of this subsidiary have been insignificant.

 

The Company also provides ecommerce development and consulting services on a project by project basis.

 

Memorandum of Sale

 

On April 9, 2018, Securus365, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Securus”), eVance Capital, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“eVance Capital”), and eVance Inc., a Delaware corporation (“eVance”, and collectively with Securus and eVance Capital, the “Purchasers”), each of which Purchaser is a newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary of OLB, entered into a Memorandum of Sale (the “Memorandum of Sale”) by and among the Purchasers and GACP Finance Co., LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“GACP”), in its capacity as administrative agent and collateral agent to certain secured lenders of the Debtors (as defined below), pursuant to which the Purchasers acquired substantially all of the assets of the Debtors (the “Asset Acquisition”) through a foreclosure sale arranged by GACP under the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York (“UCC”) of the collateral of Excel Corporation (“Excel”) and its subsidiaries Payprotec Oregon, LLC, Excel Business Solutions, Inc. and eVance Processing, Inc. (Excel and such subsidiaries, collectively, the “Debtors”) under the Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of November 2, 2016, by and among GACP, the lenders thereunder and the Debtors and related loan documents, as amended (the “Excel Loan and Security Agreement”).

 

GACP exercised its post-default remedies and realized on the collateral securing the Debtors’ obligations under the Excel Loan and Security Agreement by conducting a public auction of certain assets of the Debtors on April 9, 2018 in accordance with the UCC. The Purchasers submitted the Memorandum of Sale at such auction, which constituted the Purchasers’ bid for substantially all of the assets of the Debtors (“Acquired Assets”), which bid was accepted by GACP on April 9, 2018 in connection with the simultaneous signing and closing (the “Closing”) of the transactions contemplated under the Memorandum of Sale and the Credit Agreement (defined below).

  

6

 

 

In consideration for the sale and transfer of the Acquired Assets at the Closing, the Purchasers assumed certain post-Closing obligations under assigned contracts and issued GACP a note payable in the amount of $12,500,000, through the deemed simultaneous financing of such purchase price to the Purchasers under the Credit Agreement. Pursuant to the Memorandum of Sale, the Purchasers purchased from GACP and accepted all of the Debtors’ right, title and interest in and to the Acquired Assets “as is”, “where is” and “with all faults” and without any representations or warranties, express or implied, of any nature whatsoever. Any representations made by the parties in the Memorandum of Sale did not survive the Closing, and there is no indemnification rights for either party’s breach. See Note 5.

 

Common Control Mergers

 

Effective May 9, 2018, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Crowdpay.US, Inc., a New York corporation for which the Company issued 87,500,000 shares of common stock for all of the authorized stock of Crowdpay. Crowdpay became a wholly owned subsidiary of OLB. The Company’s two majority stockholders were the two stockholders of Crowdpay and as a result this transaction was accounted for as a common control merger. See Note 6.

 

Effective May 9, 2018, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Omnisoft, Inc., a Delaware corporation for which the Company issued 55,000,000 shares of common stock for all of the authorized stock of Omnisoft. Omnisoft became a wholly owned subsidiary of OLB. The Company’s two majority stockholders were the two stockholders of Omnisoft and as a result this transaction was accounted for as a common control merger. See Note 6.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2018 included on the Company’s Form 10-K. The results of the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2019.

 

In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2019 and the results of operations and cash flows presented herein have been included in the financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for the full year.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s accounting estimates include the collectability of receivables, useful lives of long lived assets and recoverability of those assets, valuation allowances for income taxes, stock based compensation and estimates made for business combinations.

 

Net Loss per Share

 

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially outstanding shares of common stock during the period. The weighted average number of common shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 does not include warrants and options to acquire 1,200,000 and 6,697,467 shares of common stock, respectively. Basic net loss per share does include the weighted average effect of vested options to acquire 1,657,701 shares of commons stock as their exercise prices are nominal. There were no other potentially dilutive shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

 

Revenue Recognition and Cost of Revenues

 

The Company will recognize revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned.  The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the product has been shipped or the services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.

  

7

 

 

The Company receives a percentage of recurring monthly transaction related fees comprised of credit and debit card fees charged to merchants, net of association fees, otherwise known as Interchange, as well as certain service charges and convenience fees, for payment processing services, including authorization, capture, clearing, settlement and information reporting of electronic transactions. Fees are calculated on either a percentage of the dollar volume of the transaction or a fixed fee or a hybrid of the two and are recognized at the time of the transaction. In the case of “wholesale” residual revenue in which the Company has a direct contractual relationship with the merchant, bears risk of chargebacks and performs underwriting on the merchants, the Company records the full discount charged to the merchant as revenue and the related interchange and other processing fees as expenses. In cases of residual revenue where the Company is not responsible for merchant underwriting and has no chargeback liability and has no or limited contractual relationship with the merchant, the Company records the amount it receives from the processor net of interchange and other processing fees as revenue.

  

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, eVance, Securus, Crowdpay.US, and OMNISOFT, Inc. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

Segments

 

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision–making group in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Our chief operating decision–making group is composed of the chief executive officer. We currently operate in one segment surrounding our ISO operations.

 

Recent Accounting Standards

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The ASU requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. This new guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods, and early adoption is permitted. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the potential effect that the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to establish ASC Topic 606, (ASC 606).  ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.  The guidance includes a five-step framework that requires an entity to: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation.  In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.

In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Deferral of the Effective Date, which amended the effective date for nonpublic entities to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018.  In March 2016, the FASB issued an update (ASU 2016-08) to ASC 606, Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net), which clarifies the guidance on principal versus agent considerations. In April 2016, the FASB issued an update (ASU 2016-10) to ASC 606, Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which provides clarification related to identifying performance obligations and licensing implementation guidance under ASU 2014-09. In May 2016, the FASB issued an update (ASU 2016-12) to ASC 606, Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, which amends guidance on transition, collectability, noncash consideration and the presentation of sales and other similar taxes. In December 2016, the FASB issued an update (ASU 2016-20) to ASC 606, Technical Corrections and Improvements, which outlines technical corrections to certain aspects of the new revenue recognition standard such as provisions for losses on construction type contracts and disclosure of remaining performance obligations, among other aspects. The effective date and transition requirements are the same as those in ASU 2014-09 for all subsequent clarifying guidance discussed herein.

 

The guidance permits two methods of adoption: retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective method), or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application (modified retrospective method). As an Emerging Growth Company, the standard is effective for the Company’s 2019 annual reporting period and for interim periods after 2019. The Company is currently in the initial phase of analyzing the potential impact this standard will have on its consolidated financial position and results of operations. The Company expects to apply the modified retrospective method upon adoption.

 

The Company has reviewed other recently issued accounting pronouncements and plans to adopt those that are applicable to it. The Company does not expect the adoption of any other pronouncements to have an impact on its results of operations or financial position. 

 

NOTE 3 – LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

At June 30, 2019, the Company had cash of $55,418 and a working capital deficit of $1,004,312. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company’s net loss was $472,838 and $879,783, respectively, and its cash used in operating activities was $188,957 for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company expects to fund future liquidity and capital requirements through cash flow generated from its operating activities resulting from increases in its merchants and revenues generated. Additionally, included in the working capital deficit as of June 30, 2019 was accrued payroll, a note payable and other expenses due to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Ronny Yakov, in the amount of approximately $749,632, which he has agreed to defer receiving payment until the Company has sufficient working capital. As a result of the recent amendments to its long-term and related party long-term debt arrangements, coupled with  its operations acquired in the business combination and commitment from a related party and significant stockholder that he will provide any additional financial support, if needed, to satisfy the Company’s debt or other obligations through November 2020, the Company believes it has sufficient capital to continue operations for a period of at least twelve months from the date these financial statements were issued. The Company’s future capital requirements could depend on many factors, including the need to expand its services, competing technological and market developments, and the need to enter into collaborations with other companies or acquire other companies or technologies to enhance or complement the Company’s product and service offerings. If the Company is unable to secure additional capital, it may be required to curtail its future plans and take additional measures to reduce costs in order to conserve cash.

NOTE 5 – BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

 

As disclosed in Note 1, on April 9, 2018, the Company entered into a Memorandum of Sale by and among the Purchasers and GACP. In consideration for the sale and transfer of the Acquired Assets at the Closing, the Company assumed certain post-Closing obligations under assigned contracts and issued GACP a note payable for $12,500,000, through the deemed simultaneous financing of such purchase price to the Purchasers under the Credit Agreement.  

 

The Company accounted for the transaction as a business combination under ASC 805 and as a result, allocated the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date as outlined in the table below. The results of operations of the business acquired by the Company have been included in the consolidated statements of operations since the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the underlying identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed was allocated to goodwill. The amount assigned to goodwill was deemed appropriate based on several factors, including: (i) the multiple paid by market participants for businesses in the merchant card processing business; (ii) levels of eVance Payments, current and future projected cash flows; and (iii) the Company’s strategic business plan. Goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

 

The allocation of the purchase price and the estimated fair market values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are shown below:

 

Consideration    
Consideration issued  $12,500,000 
Identified assets and liabilities     
Cash   42,711

As additional consideration for the Term Loan under the Credit Agreement, on April 9, 2018 the Company also entered into a letter agreement (the “Additional Warrants Agreement”) with GACP, pursuant to which the Company agreed that if the Company at any time after the Closing and prior to the satisfaction of all outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement requests for GACP to provide debt financing for the acquisition of a company or operating business by the Company or its subsidiaries, and GACP or its affiliates provide all of the debt financing for such acquisition, the Company will issue to GACP a warrant to purchase 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (an “Additional Warrant”) upon the closing of such debt-financing, with such Additional Warrant in substantially the same form as the Warrant, up to a total of four (4) Additional Warrants for four debt-financed acquisitions under the Additional Warrants Agreement. The exercise price of the Additional Warrants, if issued, will be $0.30 per share for the first Additional Warrant, $0.35 per share for the second Additional Warrant, $0.40 per share for the third Additional Warrant and $0.45 per share for the fourth Additional Warrant, with the number of shares and exercise price subject to adjustment as set forth in the Additional Warrants Agreement and the Additional Warrant.

 

The warrants have an exercise price of $0.25 and expire in three years. The aggregate fair value of the warrants, which was charged to interest expense, totaled $7,660 based on the Black Scholes Merton pricing model using the following estimates: exercise price of $0.25, 2.28% risk free rate, 114.11% volatility and expected life of the warrants of 3 years.

   Weighted Average
Remaining Contractual
Life
  Weighted Average
Exercise Price
 
$0.25    1,200,000   1.75 years  $0.25 

 

The aggregate intrinsic value represents the total pretax intrinsic value, based on warrants with an exercise price less than the Company’s stock price as of June 30, 2019, which would have been received by the warrant holder had the warrant holder exercised their warrants as of that date.

Company Overview and Description of Business

 

We were incorporated in the State of Delaware on November 18, 2004 for the purpose of merging with OLB.com. The merger was done for the purpose of changing our state of incorporation from New York to Delaware. In April 2018, we completed an acquisition of substantially all of the net assets of Excel and its subsidiaries Payprotec Oregon, LLC, Excel Business Solutions, Inc. and eVance Processing, Inc. (such assets are the foundation of our eVance business). In May 2018, we entered into share exchange agreements with Crowdpay and Omnisoft, affiliate companies of our company’s majority stockholder, pursuant to which each of Crowdpay and Omnisoft became solely owned subsidiaries of our Company. Our Company’s headquarters is located at 200 Park Avenue, Suite 1700, New York, NY 10166. Our telephone number is (212) 278-0900.

 

We are a FinTech company and payment facilitator that focuses on a suite of products in the merchant services and payment facilitator verticals that is focused on providing integrated business solutions to merchants throughout the United States. We seek to accomplish this by providing merchants with a wide range of products and services through our various online platforms, including financial and transaction processing services and support for crowdfunding and other capital raising initiatives. We supplement our online platforms with certain hardware solutions that are integrated with our online platforms. Our business functions primarily through three wholly-owned subsidiaries, eVance, Omnisoft, and CrowdPay.

 

Results of Operations

 

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations (“MD&A”) includes a discussion of the consolidated results from operations of The OLB Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

 

Three Months Ended June 30, 2019 Compared to the Three Months Ended  June 30, 2018

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2019 we had total revenue of $2,581,940, a majority of which is earned from transaction and processing fees related to electronic payments. During the same period, costs related to payment processing fees totaled $1,678,548, or 65% of revenue.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2018, total revenues were $3,226,965 a majority of which is earned primarily from transaction and processing fees related to electronic payments. During the same period, cost of revenue related to payment processing combined for $2,092,527 or 65% of revenue.

 

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2018 includes the accounts for OLB, Crowdpay and Omnisoft from April 1, 2018 through June 30, 2018 and revenue from the operations of the net assets acquired from Excel Corporation (the “Predecessor”) for the period from April 9, 2018 through June 30, 2018.

 

15

 

 

Revenue has decreased from the prior year due to the lack of a sales team and customer retention program in place to replace lost merchants and gain new ones. Our goal is to build out our sales team in 2019 and expand our offering or products and services.  

 

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $889,253 for the three months ended June 30, 2019. This includes $366,602 for salaries and wage expense, $34,442 for outside commissions and $488,209 for other general and administrative costs (“G&A”) which includes $66,263 of non-cash stock compensation expense related to the grant of options to our officers.

The decrease in SG&A expense of $149,938 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018 is due to the decrease in all SG&A expenses as the Company tries to eliminate unnecessary expenditures and conserve its cash.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2019 we incurred $308,800 of interest expense, compared to $187,907 for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase in interest expense of $120,893 is primarily due to the interest expense payable on our outstanding loans.

 

Our net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $472,838 compared to $320,337 for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

The company’s merchants process over $82,000,000 in gross transactions monthly and averages 1,400,000 transactions a month. These transactions come from a variety of sources including direct accounts and ISO channels. The accounts consist of businesses across the USA with no concentration of industries or merchants.

 

We are soft launching all the applications for OmniSoft and the shopfast Omnicommerce solution with the eVance mobile payment gateway SecurePay.com. The Company’s proprietary gateway, SegurePay.comTM, is used by approximately 3,000 merchants processing over 32,000 transactions and approximately $9,000,000 of monthly gross transactions. We are also launching our new Merchant and ISO boarding system that will be able to board merchants instantly online. This will providing the merchant with an automated approval and ISOs will have the ability to see all their merchants and their residuals as they load to the system.

Our back office risk and compliance system, Ingres, is connected to a list of risk and mitigation vendors and tools that instantly give us an in-depth understanding of new merchant applications. This allows our internal dashboard to provide Artificial intelligence information on the merchant. The Company uses this information to mitigate merchant risk since the Company is liable for the transaction.

 

The available merchant information processed through our systems gives us the ability to make intelligent decisions about what services we can provide to specific merchants. Services such as small business loans and instant cash advances are available upon the Company’s approval, although none have been issued to date.

 

The Company plans to focus on prime verticals such as small banks that don’t have merchant services in-house. This allows us to be the merchant services provider for the bank and their merchants.

 

The Company is a Payment Facilitator (PayFac). The PayFac model allows us to instantly underwrite merchants and take all credit risk from end to end.

 

We are adding additional services to our payment gateway to provide services such as ACH and cloud based billings.

 

CrowdPay plans to increase the platform services for crowd funding by offering its white labeled solutions to issuers and investment banking firms.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2019 we used $188,957 of cash in operating activities, which included reconciliation of $422,502 for amortization and depreciation expense, $132,525 for stock based compensation, an increase to accounts receivable of $103,282 and an increase to related party accruals of $172,626. We had proceeds from financing activities of $132,789 from loans from our CEO.

 

At June 30, 2019, the Company had cash of $55,418 and a working capital deficit of $1,004,312. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company’s net loss was $472,838 and $879,783, respectively, and its cash used in operating activities was $188,957 for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company expects to fund future liquidity and capital requirements through cash flow generated from its operating activities resulting from increases in its merchants and revenues generated. Additionally, included in the working capital deficit as of June 30, 2019 was accrued payroll, a note payable and other expenses due to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Ronny Yakov, in the amount of $749,632, which he has agreed to defer receiving payment until the Company has sufficient working capital. As a result of the recent amendments to its long-term and related party long-term debt arrangements, coupled with  its operations acquired in the business combination and commitment from a related party and significant stockholder that he will provide any additional financial support, if needed, to satisfy the Company’s debt or other obligations through November 2020, the Company believes it has sufficient capital to continue operations for a period of at least twelve months from the date these financial statements were issued. The Company’s future capital requirements could depend on many factors, including the need to expand its services, competing technological and market developments, and the need to enter into collaborations with other companies or acquire other companies or technologies to enhance or complement the Company’s product and service offerings. If the Company is unable to secure additional capital, it may be required to curtail its future plans and take additional measures to reduce costs in order to conserve cash.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and, as such, are not required to provide the information under this Item.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure Control and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to be effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on that evaluation, they concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2019.

 

The following aspects of the Company were noted as potential material weaknesses:

 

  Due to our size and limited resources, we currently do not employ the appropriate accounting personnel to ensure (a) we maintain proper segregation of duties, (b) that all transactions are entered timely and accurately, and (c) we properly account for complex or unusual transactions

 

  Due to our size and scope of operations, we currently do not have an independent audit committee in place

 

  Due to our size and limited resources, we have not properly documented a complete assessment of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our internal control over financial reporting.

 

In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance of achieving the desired objectives. Also, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.

 

Changes in Internal Controls

 

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to material affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
