ORGANICELL REGENERATIVE MEDICINE, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Organicell Regenerative Medicine, Inc. (formerly Biotech Products Services and Research, Inc.) (“Organicell” or the “Company”) was incorporated on August 9, 2011 in the State of Nevada. Until October 30, 2015, the Company’s business included the designing, manufacturing, and selling vending tricycles for commercial customers. Since June 2015, the Company has been engaged in the health care industry, principally focusing on research and development and supplying products and services related to the growing field of regenerative anti-aging medicine.
On May 21, 2018, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of Nevada to change the Company’s name from Biotech Products Services and Research, Inc. to Organicell Regenerative Medicine, Inc., effective June 20, 2018 (the “Name Change”). The Name Change has not yet been effectuated in the marketplace by the Financial Industry Regulatory Agency (“FINRA”).
For the three months ended January 31, 2020, the Company principally operated through General Surgical of Florida, Inc., a Florida corporation (“General Surgical”) and wholly owned subsidiary, with a business purpose to sell cellular therapy products to doctors and hospitals.
During the three months ended January 31, 2020, the Company revenues were principally derived from the sale and distribution of regenerative biologic therapies based on amnion placental tissue derived products to doctors and hospitals. For the period November 1, 2018 through April 2019, the Company sold products produced and supplied through third party supply agreements. During February 2019, the Company began arranging to operate a new laboratory facility for the purpose of performing research and development, production and manufacturing of anti-aging and cellular therapy products. This new laboratory facility became operational in May 2019 and during the same period, the Company began producing and distributing the products that are being sold to its customers.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Reclassifications
The advances from affiliates previously included in accrued liabilities to management have been reclassified to conform with the current financial statement presentation.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The balance sheet items that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk are primarily cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Balances in accounts are insured up to Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) limits of $250,000 per institution. At January 31, 2020, the Company did not hold cash balances in any financial institution in excess of FDIC insurance coverage limits.
8 |
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States 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 year. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions considered to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ from the estimates.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded at fair value on the date revenue is recognized. The Company provides allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to repay their obligation. If the financial condition of the Company's customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to repay, additional allowances may be required. The Company provides for potential uncollectible accounts receivable based on specific customer identification and historical collection experience adjusted for existing market conditions.
The policy for determining past due status is based on the contractual payment terms of each customer, which are generally net 30 or net 60 days. Once collection efforts by the Company and its collection agency are exhausted, the determination for charging off uncollectible receivables is made. For the three months ended January 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not record any bad debt expense.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the average cost method. The Company provides reserves for potential excess, dated or obsolete inventories based on an analysis of forecasted demand compared to quantities on hand and any firm purchase orders, as well as product shelf life. At January 31, 2020, the Company determined that there were not any reserves required in connection with our finished goods.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The estimated useful lives of property and equipment range from 3 to 15 years. Upon sale or retirement, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are eliminated from their respective accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is included in results of operations. Repairs and maintenance charges, which do not increase the useful lives of the assets, are charged to operations as incurred.
Revenue Recognition
The Company follows the guidance of FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) Topic 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” which requires the Company to recognize revenue in amounts that reflect the prorata completion of the performance obligations of the Company required under the contracts. The Company applied the new standard using a modified retrospective approach.
The Company recognizes revenue only when it transfers control of a promised good or service to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for the good or service. Our performance obligations are satisfied and control is transferred at a point-in-time, which is typically when the transfer and title to the product sold has taken place and there is evidence of our customer’s satisfactory acceptance of the product shipment or delivery.
9 |
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic income (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing the Company's net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Company's net income available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted average number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity.
At January 31, 2020, the Company had 3,257,943 common shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants that were not included in the computation of dilutive loss per share because their inclusion is anti-dilutive for the three months ended January 31, 2020. At January 31, 2019, the Company had 3,687,484 common shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants that were not included in the computation of dilutive loss per share because their inclusion is anti-dilutive for the three months ended January 31, 2019.
Stock-Based Compensation
All share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values.
Stock options and warrants issued to consultants and other non-employees as compensation for services provided to the Company are accounted for based upon the estimated fair value of the option or warrant.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs consist of direct and indirect costs associated with the development of the Company’s technologies. These costs are expensed as incurred. Our research and development expenses were approximately $72,000 for the three months ended January 31, 2020. The research and development costs primarily relate to the filing and approval of IND applications and the performance of clinical trials.
Income Taxes
The Company is required to file a consolidated tax return that includes all of its subsidiaries.
Provisions for income taxes are based on taxes payable or refundable for the current year taxable income for federal and state income tax reporting purposes and deferred income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss carryforwards. Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of the operations in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with FASB Topic 740 – Income Taxes. This pronouncement prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation also provides guidance on recognition, derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition.
For the three months ended January 31, 2020 and 2019 the Company incurred operating losses, and therefore, there was not any income tax expense amount recorded during that period. There is a full valuation allowance for the three months ended January 31, 2020 and 2019.
10 |
Valuation of Derivatives
The Company evaluates its convertible instruments, options, warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.” The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the derivative is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the statement of operations as other income (expense). Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC Topic 815 are reclassified to liabilities at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date.
Sequencing
The Company has adopted a sequencing policy whereby, in the event that reclassification of contracts from equity to assets or liabilities is necessary pursuant to ASC 815 due to the Company’s inability to demonstrate it has sufficient authorized shares, shares will be allocated on the basis of the earliest issuance date of potentially dilutive instruments, with the earliest grants receiving the first allocation of shares.
The Company currently has 1,500,000,000 authorized shares of common stock of which 942,992,783 shares are issued and outstanding. The Company expects that it will continue to issue common stock in the future in connection with debt and/or equity financings, transactions with third parties, performance incentives and as compensation to its employees. Currently the amount of additional shares that the Company may be contingently obligated to issue under existing arrangements would exceed the current amount of authorized shares by approximately 100,000,000 shares.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company includes fair value information in the notes to financial statements when the fair value of its financial instruments is different from the book value. When the book value approximates fair value, no additional disclosure is made.
The Company follows FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. It defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and convertible debt. The estimated fair value of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
The Company follows the provisions of ASC 820 with respect to its financial instruments. As required by ASC 820, assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to their fair value measurement.
Level one — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level two — Inputs other than level one inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and
Level three — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and developed using estimates and assumptions, which are developed by the reporting entity and reflect those assumptions that a market participant would use.
11 |
The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
Determining which category an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter.
The Company did not have any convertible instruments outstanding at January 31, 2020 and October 31, 2019 that qualify as derivatives.
Operating and Finance Lease Obligations
Effective November 1, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02 (Topic 842) (“ASC 842”), that requires organizations that lease assets to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet and provide updated disclosures related to the rights and obligations created by those leases, regardless of whether they are classified as finance or operating leases. The Company adopted the new standard using a modified retrospective approach. The modified retrospective approach included a number of optional practical expedients on leases that commenced before the effective date of ASC 842, including continuing to account for leases that commenced before the effective date in accordance with previous guidance, unless the lease is modified.
Under the provisions of ASC 842, the Company is required to recognize a right of use (“ROU”) asset and corresponding lease liability for all operating leases upon commencement of the lease. The Company’s policy is to treat operating leases that have a term of one year or less at lease commencement date and do not include a purchase option that is reasonably certain of exercise, consistent with the lease recognition approach as previously outlined under ASC 840. In addition, month to month leases which do not involve additional financial commitments on the part of the Company are also treated consistent with the lease recognition approach as previously outlined under ASC 840. The Company has established a capitalization threshold of $15,000 in determining whether any future operating leases will be capitalized. The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the Company retrospectively recording a ROU asset and corresponding operating lease obligation of $55,777 on November 1, 2018.
Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated subsequent events that occurred after January 31, 2020 through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent event disclosure consideration.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
The unaudited accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has had limited revenues since its inception. The Company incurred operating losses of $688,785 for the three months ended January 31, 2020. In addition, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $16,981,662 at January 31, 2020. The Company had a negative working capital position of $2,250,994 at January 31, 2020.
In addition to the above, the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) during March 2020 and the resulting adverse public health developments and economic effects to the United States business environments have adversely affected the demand for our products and services by our customers and from patients of our customers as a result of quarantines, facility closures and social distancing measures put into effect in connection with the COVID-19 outbreak and which currently still continue to have a negative impact to our business and the economy. These restrictions have adversely affected the Company’s sales, results of operations and financial condition. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Company (a) has accelerated its research and development activities, (b) is aggressively seeking to raise additional debt and/or equity financing to support working capital requirements, and (c) continues to take steps to stabilize and increase revenues from the sale of its products.
As a result of the above, the Company’s efforts to establish a stabilized source of sufficient revenues to cover operating costs has yet to be achieved and ultimately may prove to be unsuccessful unless (a) the United States economy resumes to pre-COVID-19 conditions and (b) additional sources of working capital through operations or debt and/or equity financings are realized. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Management anticipates that the Company will remain dependent, for the near future, on additional investment capital to fund ongoing operating expenses and the costs to perform required clinical studies in connection with the sale of its products. The Company does not have any assets to pledge for the purpose of borrowing additional capital. In addition, the Company relies on its ability to produce and sell products it manufactures that are subject to changing technology and regulations that it currently sells and distributes to its customers. The Company’s current market capitalization, common stock liquidity and available authorized shares may hinder its ability to raise equity proceeds. The Company anticipates that future sources of funding, if any, will therefore be costly and dilutive, if available at all.
In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraphs, recoverability of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet assumes that (1) the effects of the COVID-19 crisis resume to pre-COVID-19 market conditions, (2) the Company will be able to establish a stabilized source of revenues, (3) obligations to the Company’s creditors are not accelerated, (4) the Company’s operating expenses remain at current levels and/or the Company is successful in restructuring and/or deferring ongoing obligations, (5) the Company is able to continue to produce products or obtain products under supply arrangements which are in compliance with current and future regulatory guidelines, (6) the Company is able to continue its research and development activities, particularly in regards to remaining compliant with the FDA and the safety and efficacy of its products, and (7) the Company obtains additional working capital to meet its contractual commitments and maintain the current level of Company operations through debt or equity sources.
There is no assurance as to when the adverse impact to the United States and worldwide economies resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak will be eliminated, if at all, and whether any new or recurring pandemic outbreaks will occur again in the future causing similar or worse devastating impact to the United States and worldwide economies and our business. In addition, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete its revenue growth strategy, its expected required research and development activities or otherwise obtain sufficient working capital to cover ongoing cash requirements. Without sufficient cash reserves, the Company’s ability to pursue growth objectives will be adversely impacted. Furthermore, despite significant effort since July 2015, the Company has thus far been unsuccessful in achieving a stabilized source of revenues. As described above, the COVID-19 crisis has significantly impaired the Company and the overall Unites States and World economies. If revenues do not increase and stabilize, if the COVID-19 crisis is not satisfactorily managed and/or resolved or if additional funds cannot otherwise be raised, the Company might be required to seek other alternatives which could include the sale of assets, closure of operations and/or protection under the U.S. bankruptcy laws. As of January 31, 2020, based on the factors described above, the Company concluded that there was substantial doubt about its ability to continue to operate as a going concern for the 12 months following the issuance of these financial statements.

As consideration for agreeing to provide the consulting services to the Company, the Company has agreed to pay the consultants A minimum of $12,500 per month during the term of the agreement and to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of restricted common stock (valued at $0.175 per share, the closing price of the common stock of the Company on the grant date), based on successful performance of defined milestones. The agreement may be terminated after the third month anniversary of the agreement with or without cause. The Company will record up to $875,000 of stock-based compensation expense at the time that any shares actually become vested as a result of achievement of the defined milestones.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion of the Company's liquidity and capital resources should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein. Unless stated otherwise, the words “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” or “Organicell” in this section collectively refer to Organicell Regenerative Medicine, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries.
COVID-19 Impact To Economy And Business Environment
The current outbreak of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) and resulting impact to the United States economic environments began to take hold during March 2020. The adverse public health developments and economic effects of the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States, have adversely affected the demand for our products and services by our customers and from patients of our customers as a result of quarantines, facility closures and social distancing measures put into effect in connection with the COVID-19 outbreak and which currently still continue to have a negative impact to our business and the economy. These restrictions have adversely affected the Company’s sales, results of operations and financial condition.
There is no assurance as to when the adverse impact to the United States and worldwide economies resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak will be eliminated, if at all, and whether any new or recurring pandemic outbreaks will occur again in the future causing a similar or worse devastating impact to the United States and worldwide economies or our business.
Results of Operations
For the Three Months Ended January 31, 2020 and January 31, 2019
Revenues
Our revenues for the three months ended January 31, 2020 were $696,948, compared with revenues of $175,953 for the three months ended January 31, 2019. The increase in revenues during the three months ended January 31, 2020 of $520,995 (296.1%) was primarily the result of the Company being able to realize an increase of approximately 354.6% (approximately $543,634) in unit sales of its products during the three months ended January 31, 2020 compared with the three months ended January 31, 2019, partially offset from a decrease of approximately 12.9% (approximately $22,639) in the average sales prices for the products sold during the three months ended January 31, 2020 compared with the average sales prices realized on products sold during the three months ended January 31, 2019. The increase in the units sold was partly attributable to favorable responses to the Company’s sales and marketing efforts establishing greater market awareness, less discounting of product prices to new customers, the introduction of new and more advanced product offerings and increased research and development efforts which provided customers with greater comfort in the company’s products and ability to better address potential market uncertainty regarding anticipated FDA regulations. The decrease in the average sales prices realized on products sold during the three months ended January 31, 2020 compared with the three months ended January 31, 2019 was due to an increase in the sales of the Company’s aesthetic product offerings which are sold at lower prices than the Company’s medical grade product offerings.
Cost of Revenues
Our cost of revenues for the three months ended January 31, 2020 were $99,720, compared with cost of revenues of $45,419 for the three months ended January 31, 2019. The increase in the cost of revenues during the three months ended January 31, 2020 compared with the three months ended January 31, 2019 was due to an increase in the amount of units sold of 354.6% (approximately $77,784) during the three months ended January 31, 2020 compared with the three months ended January 31, 2019, partially offset from the reduction in the cost of units sold of 51.7% (approximately ($23,483) during the three months ended January 31, 2020 compared to costs of units sold during the three months ended January 31, 2019, which as described above was primarily the result of the Company’s increase in the sales of the Company’s aesthetic product offerings during the three months ended January 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended January 31, 2019 which have a lower cost of revenue than the Company’s medical grade product offerings and also from the Company’s ability to supply inventory through lower costing inventory manufactured by the Company beginning in May 2019 rather than from more costly third party manufacturers for the three months ended January 31, 2019.
29 |
Gross Profit
Our gross profit for the three months ended January 31, 2020 was $597,228, compared with gross profit of $130,534 for the three months ended January 31, 2019. The increase in gross profit during the three months ended January 31, 2020 was the result of higher amount of units sold and lower cost of units sold during the three months ended January 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended January 31, 2019. The increase in the units sold was partly attributable to favorable responses to the Company’s sales and marketing efforts establishing greater market awareness and the introduction of new and more advanced product offerings. The lower cost of units sold was due to the Company’s increase in the sales of the Company’s aesthetic product offerings during the three months ended January 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended January 31, 2019 which have a lower cost of revenue than the Company’s medical grade product offerings and also from the Company’s ability to supply inventory through lower costing inventory manufactured by the Company beginning in May 2019 rather than from more costly third party manufacturers for the three months ended January 31, 2019.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended January 31, 2020 were $1,286,013, compared with $419,877 for the three months ended January 31, 2019, an increase of $866,136. The increase in the general and administrative expenses for the three months ended January 31, 2020 compared with the three months ended January 31, 2019 was primarily the result of increased stock-based compensation costs to advisors, consultants and administrative staff totaling $34,203, increased commissions due on sales of the Company’s products of $138,316, increased payroll and consulting costs of approximately $382,490, increased trade show and marketing related costs of $126,412, increased professional fees of $59,632 and approximately $118,895 of increased laboratory related expenses. The increase in payroll and consulting costs and laboratory related expenses was the result of the Company’s expansion of its research and development activities primarily relating to the filing and approval of IND applications and the performance of clinical trials.
Other Income (Expense)
Other (expense), net, for the three months ended January 31, 2020 was ($7,656), compared with other income, net, of $44,806 for the three months ended January 31, 2019. The net decrease in other income, net, was the result of reduced income realized from the settlement of obligations of $36,924 and increased interest costs associated with interest-bearing obligations totaling $15,538 during the three months ended January 31, 2020.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the fiscal three months ended January 31, 2020 and through the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q, the Company has relied on the sale of debt or equity securities, the restructuring of debt obligations and/or the issuance and/or exchange of equity securities to meet the shortfall in cash to fund its operations.
1. | On October 10, 2019, the Company and an investor (“Noteholder”) agreed to a funding facility arrangement (“Funding Facility”) whereby the Noteholder was required to fund the Company an initial tranche of $100,000 on October 15, 2019 (“Initial Funding Date”) and had the option to fund the Company up to an aggregate of $500,000 (“Funding Facility Limit”) in minimum $100,000 monthly tranches by no later than February 15, 2020 (“Funding Expiration Date”). The Funding Facility matures on February 15, 2021 (“Maturity Date”) and accrues interest at 6.0% per annum. The Funding Facility, plus all accrued interest, automatically converts into 40,000,000 shares of newly issued common stock of the Company if the Noteholder funds the full $500,000 by the Funding Expiration Date. The Noteholder fully funded the Funding Facility as prescribed on February 12, 2020 and the Company converted the Funding Facility into 40,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company that were issued to the Noteholders designated entity, Republic Asset Holdings LLC. |

Going Concern Consideration
The unaudited accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has had limited revenues since its inception. The Company incurred operating losses of $688,785 for the three months ended January 31, 2020. In addition, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $16,981,662 at January 31, 2020. The Company had a negative working capital position of $2,250,994 at January 31, 2020.
In addition to the above, the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) during March 2020 and the resulting adverse public health developments and economic effects to the United States business environments have adversely affected the demand for our products and services by our customers and from patients of our customers as a result of quarantines, facility closures and social distancing measures put into effect in connection with the COVID-19 outbreak and which currently still continue to have a negative impact to our business and the economy. These restrictions have adversely affected the Company’s sales, results of operations and financial condition. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Company (a) has accelerated its research and development activities, (b) is aggressively seeking to raise additional debt and/or equity financing to support working capital requirements, and (c) continues to take steps to stabilize and increase revenues from the sale of its products.
31 |
As a result of the above, the Company’s efforts to establish a stabilized source of sufficient revenues to cover operating costs has yet to be achieved and ultimately may prove to be unsuccessful unless (a) the United States economy resumes to pre-COVID-19 conditions and (b) additional sources of working capital through operations or debt and/or equity financings are realized. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Management anticipates that the Company will remain dependent, for the near future, on additional investment capital to fund ongoing operating expenses and the costs to perform required clinical studies in connection with the sale of its products. The Company does not have any assets to pledge for the purpose of borrowing additional capital. In addition, the Company relies on its ability to produce and sell products it manufactures that are subject to changing technology and regulations that it currently sells and distributes to its customers. The Company’s current market capitalization, common stock liquidity and available authorized shares may hinder its ability to raise equity proceeds. The Company anticipates that future sources of funding, if any, will therefore be costly and dilutive, if available at all.
In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraphs, recoverability of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet assumes that (1) the effects of the COVID-19 crisis resume to pre-COVID-19 market conditions, (2) the Company will be able to establish a stabilized source of revenues, (3) obligations to the Company’s creditors are not accelerated, (4) the Company’s operating expenses remain at current levels and/or the Company is successful in restructuring and/or deferring ongoing obligations, (5) the Company is able to continue to produce products or obtain products under supply arrangements which are in compliance with current and future regulatory guidelines, (6) the Company is able to continue its research and development activities, particularly in regards to remaining compliant with the FDA and the safety and efficacy of its products, and (7) the Company obtains additional working capital to meet its contractual commitments and maintain the current level of Company operations through debt or equity sources.
There is no assurance as to when the adverse impact to the United States and worldwide economies resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak will be eliminated, if at all, and whether any new or recurring pandemic outbreaks will occur again in the future causing similar or worse devastating impact to the United States and worldwide economies and our business. In addition, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete its revenue growth strategy, its expected required research and development activities or otherwise obtain sufficient working capital to cover ongoing cash requirements. Without sufficient cash reserves, the Company’s ability to pursue growth objectives will be adversely impacted. Furthermore, despite significant effort since July 2015, the Company has thus far been unsuccessful in achieving a stabilized source of revenues. As described above, the COVID-19 crisis has significantly impaired the Company and the overall Unites States and World economies. If revenues do not increase and stabilize, if the COVID-19 crisis is not satisfactorily managed and/or resolved or if additional funds cannot otherwise be raised, the Company might be required to seek other alternatives which could include the sale of assets, closure of operations and/or protection under the U.S. bankruptcy laws. As of January 31, 2020, based on the factors described above, the Company concluded that there was substantial doubt about its ability to continue to operate as a going concern for the 12 months following the issuance of these financial statements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The following table summarizes the sources and uses of cash for the periods stated. The Company held no cash equivalents for any of the periods presented.
For the Three Months Ended January 31, | ||||||||
2020 | 2019 | |||||||
Cash, beginning of year | $ | 132,557 | $ | 43,016 | ||||
Net cash used in operating activities | (277,053 | ) | (30,976 | ) | ||||

Cash, end of year | $ | 142,268 | $ | 12,040 |
32 |
During the three months ended January 31, 2020, the Company used cash in operating activities of $277,053, compared to $30,976 for the three months ended January 31, 2019, an increase in cash used of $246,077. The increase in cash used in operating activities was due to the increase in the general and administrative expenses during the three months ended January 31, 2020 after adjusting for non-cash charges (mostly related to stock-based compensation), resulting from increased payroll and consulting costs and laboratory related expenses in connection with the Company’s expansion of its research and development activities during the three months ended January 31, 2020, partially offset from the increase in revenues and gross profit during the three months ended January 31, 2020.
During the three months ended January 31, 2020, the Company had cash used in investing activities of $28,902, compared to cash used in investing activities of $0 for the three months ended January 31, 2019. The increase in cash used in investing activities was due primarily due the acquisition of additional fixed assets required in connection with the expansion of the Company’s laboratory operations.
During the three months ended January 31, 2020, the Company had cash provided by financing activities of $315,666, compared to cash provided by financing activities of $0 for the three months ended January 31, 2019. The increase in cash provided by financing activities was due to increases in proceeds from the sale of equity securities and notes payable of $65,000 and $300,000, respectively, partially offset from increased payments on outstanding debt obligations and finance leases.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Our liquidity is not dependent on the use of off-balance sheet financing arrangements (as that term is defined in Item 303(a) (4) (ii) of Regulation S-K) and as of January 31, 2020 and through the date of this report, we had no such arrangements.
Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards
There were no recently issued financial accounting standards that would have an impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect the selection and application of accounting policies which require us to make significant estimates and judgments. See Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), such as this Quarterly Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported in accordance with the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated appropriately and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial and accounting officer) evaluated the effectiveness of our "disclosure controls and procedures" (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of January 31, 2020, the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act were recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that our disclosure controls are not effectively designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. See the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2019, for a description of the Company’s material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.
33 |
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
34 |
There are no pending legal proceedings to which the Company, or any of its subsidiaries, is a party or of which any of their property is subject, nor are there any material proceedings to which any director, officer or affiliate of the Company, any owner of record or beneficially of more than five percent of any class of voting securities of the Company, or any associate of any such director, officer, affiliate of the Company, or security holder is a party adverse to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or has a material interest adverse to the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
As a “smaller reporting company/emerging growth company” we are not required to disclose information under this item. However, see “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Liquidity and Capital Resources” regarding the risks associated with the Company’s efforts to achieve sufficient revenues and/or obtain additional working capital.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
We issued the following securities during the three months ended January 31, 2020 to the date of filing of this Report:
1. | On October 10, 2019, the Company and an investor (“Noteholder”) agreed to a funding facility arrangement (“Funding Facility”) whereby the Noteholder was required to fund the Company an initial tranche of $100,000 on October 15, 2019 (“Initial Funding Date”) and had the option to fund the Company up to an aggregate of $500,000 (“Funding Facility Limit”) in minimum $100,000 monthly tranches by no later than February 15, 2020 (“Funding Expiration Date”). The Funding Facility matures on February 15, 2021 (“Maturity Date”) and accrues interest at 6.0% per annum.
