Notes to Financial Statements

 

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted as allowed by such rules and regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements dated June 30, 2014. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year.

 

Management of the Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which require the use of management estimates, contain all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the operations and cash flows for the period presented and to make the financial statements not misleading.

 

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

Stock based compensation is accounted for in accordance with Topic 718 - Compensation -Stock Compensation in the Accounting Standards Codification. Pursuant to Topic 718, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are to be recognized in the statement of operations based upon their fair values. Topic 718 rescinds the acceptance of pro forma disclosure. In December 2009, our shareholders approved the adoption of a new stock option plan, providing the Company a continued means of offering stock-based compensation.

 

On September 30, 2014, there were no outstanding options to purchase shares of our common stock. Therefore, the adoption of Topic 718 does not have a material impact on our statement of operations for period ending September 30, 2014.

 

The fair value of a stock option is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which values options based on the stock price at the grant date, the expected life of the option, the estimated volatility of the stock, the expected dividend payments, and the risk-free interest rate over the life of the option. There were no options granted during the quarters ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.

 

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. Because option valuation models require the use of subjective assumptions, changes in these assumptions can materially affect the fair value of the options. Our options do not have the characteristics of traded options, therefore, the option valuation models do not necessarily provide a reliable measure of the fair value of our options.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that would occur if dilutive securities such as stock options and other contracts to issue Common Stock were exercised or converted into Common Stock or resulted in the issuance of Common Stock that then shared in earnings. We use the treasury stock method to compute potential common shares from stock options and the as-if-converted method to compute potential common shares from Preferred Stock.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2014, the potential dilutive effects of the preferred stock was excluded from the weighted-average shares outstanding as the shares would have an antidilutive effect on the loss from continuing operations.

 

NOTE B - INVENTORIES

 

Inventories consisted of the following:      
   September 30,  June 30,
   2014  2014
Finished Goods  $133,806   $87,185 
Raw Materials   249,854    189,565 
   $383,660   $276,750 

 

NOTE C - STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

During January 1995, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the issuance of up to 4,000,000 shares of Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”). The preferred stockholders are entitled to receive, as and if declared by the board of directors, quarterly dividends at an annual rate of $.10 per share of Series A Preferred Stock per annum. Dividends will accrue without interest and will be cumulative from the date of issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock and will be payable quarterly in arrears in cash or publicly traded common stock when and if declared by the Board of Directors. As of September 30, 2014, no dividends have been declared. Dividends in arrears on the outstanding preferred shares total $336,774 as of September 30, 2014.

 

Holders of the Preferred Stock have the right to convert their shares of Preferred Stock into an equal number of shares of Common Stock of the Company. In addition, Preferred Stock holders have the right to vote the number of shares into which their shares are convertible into Common Stock. Such preferred shares will automatically convert into one share of Common Stock at the close of a public offering of Common Stock by the Company provided the Company receives gross proceeds of at least $1,000,000, and the initial offering price of the Common Stock sold in such offering is equal to or in excess of $1 per share. The Company is obligated to reserve an adequate number of shares of its common stock to satisfy the conversion of all the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock. There were no shares converted during the reporting period. So long as any share of Series A Preferred Stock is outstanding, the Company is prohibited from declaring dividends or other distributions related to its Common Stock or purchasing, redeeming or otherwise acquiring any of the Common Stock.

The Board of Directors of the Company approved a plan on December 8, 2007 to repurchase shares of Procyon Corporation’s outstanding common stock. Effective May 1, 2014, the Board of Directors approved the termination of the repurchase plan. No shares of common stock were repurchased by the Company pursuant to its repurchase plan.

 

NOTE D - INCOME TAXES AND AVAILABLE CARRYFORWARD

 

As of September 30, 2014, the Company had consolidated income tax net operating loss ("NOL") carryforward for federal income tax purposes of approximately $1,728,000. The NOL will expire in various years ending through the year 2022. The utilization of certain of the loss carryforwards are limited under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.

 

The components of the provision for income tax benefits (expense) attributable to continuing and discontinued operations are as follows:

 

   Three Months 9/30/2014  Three Months 9/30/2013
Current          
Federal  $0   $0 
State   0    0 
   $0   $0 
           
Deferred           
Federal  $14,993   $(32,848)
State   2,567    (5,623)
   $17,560   $(38,471)
           
Total Income Tax Benefit (Expense)  $17,560   $(38,471)

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows: 

 

Deferred tax assets

 

    Current    Non-Current 
           
NOL and contribution carryforwards  $74,300   $575,803 
Excess of book over tax depreciation   —      2,497 
PTO Accounts   4,316    —   
Allowance for doubtful accounts   376    —   
    78,992    578,300 
           
Deferred tax (liabilities)      
           
Net deferred tax asset (liability  $78,992   $578,300 

 

The Change in valuation allowance is as follows:

 

June 30, 2013  $—   
Septemer 30, 2014  $—   
Change in valuation allowance  $—   

Management believes it is more likely than not that it will realize the benefit of the NOL carryforward, because of its continuing trend of earnings. Therefore, a valuation allowance is not considered necessary.

 

Income taxes for the periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 differ from the amounts computed by applying the effective income tax rates of 37.63%, to income taxes as a result of the following:

 

   Three Months
Sep. 30, 2014
  Three Months
Sep. 30, 2013
Expected benefit (provision) at US statutory rate  $16,246   $(33,863)
State income tax net of federal benefit (provision)   1,735    (3,615)
Nondeductible Expense   (421)   (993)
Change in estimates in available NOL carryforwards   —      —   
Income Tax Benefit (Expense)  $17,560   $(38,471)

 

The earliest tax year still subject to examination by a major taxing jurisdiction is fiscal year end June 30, 2010.

 

The Company made a review of its uncertain tax positions in accordance with applicable standards of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"). In this regard, an uncertain tax position represents the Company's expected treatment of a tax position taken in a filed tax return, or planned to be taken in a future tax return, that has not been reflected in measuring income tax expense for financial reporting purposes. As a result of this review, the Company concluded that at this time there are no uncertain tax positions, and there has been no cumulative effect on retained earnings.

NOTE E - MORTGAGE PAYABLE

 

On July 21, 2006, we entered into a mortgage loan, guaranteed by our Chief Executive Officer Regina W. Anderson, for $508,000 with the Bank of America for the purchase of our corporate office building which has a net book value of approximately $429,115. On January 15, 2013 the Company paid off the outstanding balance of the mortgage loan held on the building.

 

NOTE F - LINE OF CREDIT

 

The Company has a $250,000, due-on-demand line of credit with a financial institution, collateralized by the Company’s inventory of $383,660 and net accounts receivable assets of $198,799. The line of credit is renewable annually in April. Our Chief Executive Officer personally guaranteed the line of credit to the Company. At September 30, 2014 and June 30, 2014, the Company owed $0 on the line of credit. The line of credit extends terms of cash advances at a variable rate set equal to the prime rate at the time of advance. The interest rate can fluctuate according to the changes in its published prime rate.

 

NOTE G - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Our Chief Executive Officer, Regina W. Anderson, guaranteed a mortgage loan for the Company in the amount of $508,000, issued in connection with our purchase of our office building in July 2006, as well as the $250,000 line of credit. The underlying mortgage loan was fully paid on January 15, 2013. Accordingly, the guarantee was extinguished. The guarantee of the line of credit remains in effect.

 

NOTE H - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

We have evaluated subsequent events through November 10, 2014, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

 

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

General

 

You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with the unaudited Condensed Financial Statements and Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.

 

This Report on Form 10-Q, including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contains forward-looking statements. When used in this report, the words “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “continue,” “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” “hope,” “believe” and similar expressions, variations of these words or the negative of those words, and, any statement regarding possible or assumed future results of operations of the Company's business, the markets for its products, anticipated expenditures, regulatory developments or competition, or other statements regarding matters that are not historical facts, are intended to identify forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 regarding events, conditions and financial trends including, without limitation, business conditions in the skin and wound care market and the general economy, competitive factors, changes in product mix, production delays, manufacturing capabilities, and other risks or uncertainties detailed in other of the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings. Such statements are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, the Company's actual plan of operations, business strategy, operating results and financial position could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, such forward-looking statements.

Recent Developments

 

This past July Amerx received notice from our manufacturer involving a voluntary Class II recall as a result of a random FDA inspection of their facility. Amerx subsequently issued a voluntary sub-recall to our customers. At the same time, a second voluntary recall was initiated by Amerx based on FDA concerns regarding claims made on our previous packaging. The recall included Amerigel Wound Dressing, Amerigel Saturated Gauze Dressing, Amerigel Daily Dressing Packets and Amerigel Post-op Kits. These recalls remain open and ongoing as of this posting. The Company is unable to determine at this time whether or not there will be a long term adverse material effect to our financial operations from the recalls. Short term effects of the recalls can be seen in this quarters report showing increased legal fees, research and development fees and back ordered product. Amerx is actively addressing all concerns surrounding the recalls and is working directly with the FDA to ensure full compliance moving forward.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

 

The Company's condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), which require the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related disclosures. A summary of those significant accounting policies can be found in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's annual report on form 10-K, for the year ended June 30, 2014, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 29, 2014. The estimates used by management are based upon the Company's historical experiences combined with management’s understanding of current facts and circumstances. Certain of the Company's accounting policies are considered critical as they are both important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition and the results of its operations and require significant or complex judgments on the part of management. We believe that the following critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.

 

Accounts Receivable Allowance

 

Accounts receivable allowance reflects a reserve that reduces our customer accounts and receivable to the net amount estimated to be collectible. The valuation of accounts receivable is based upon the credit-worthiness of customers and third-party payers as well as historical collection experience. Allowances for doubtful accounts are recorded as a selling, general and administrative expense for estimated amounts expected to be uncollectible from third-party payers and customers. The Company bases its estimates on its historical collection experience, current trends, credit policy and on the analysis of accounts by aging category. At September 30, 2014 our allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $1,000.

 

11

 

 

 

 

 

 
 

 

Advertising and Marketing

 

The Company uses several forms of advertising, including sponsorships to agencies who represent the professionals in their respective fields. The Company expenses these sponsorships over the term of the advertising arrangements on a straight line basis. Other forms of advertising used by the Company include professional journal advertisements, distributor catalogs, website and mailing campaigns. These forms of advertising are expensed when incurred.

 

Deferred Income Taxes

 

Deferred income taxes are recognized for the expected tax consequences in future years for differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts, based upon enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. The Company accounts for income taxes under Topic 740 - Income Tax in the Accounting Standards Codification. A valuation allowance is used to reduce deferred tax assets to the net amount expected to be recovered in future periods. The estimates for deferred tax assets and the corresponding valuation allowance require us to exercise complex judgments. We periodically review and adjust those estimates based upon the most current information available. We did not have a valuation allowance as of September 30, 2014. Because the recoverability of deferred tax assets is directly dependent upon future operating results, actual recoverability of deferred tax assets may differ materially from our estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, "Revenue Recognition, corrected copy," which requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (3) the seller's price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and, (4) collectibility is reasonably assured.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

Stock based compensation is accounted for in accordance with Topic 718 - Compensation - Stock Compensation in the Accounting Standards Codification. All share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are to be recognized in the statement of operations based upon their fair values. Topic 718 rescinds the acceptance of pro forma disclosure.

 

FINANCIAL CONDITION

 

As of September 30, 2014 the Company's principal sources of liquid assets included cash of $530,100, inventories of $383,660, and net accounts receivable of $198,799. The Company also has $157,061 in short term Certificate of Deposits. The Company had net working capital of $1,303,792, and no long-term debt at September 30, 2014.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2014, cash decreased from $582,776 as of June 30, 2014, to $530,100. Operating activities used cash of $49,830 during the period, consisting of normal changes in operating assets.

 

 

12

 

 

 
 

 

 

The Company reflected a current deferred tax asset of $78,992, and non-current deferred tax asset of $578,300, at September 30, 2014. Because the recoverability of deferred tax assets is directly dependent upon future operating results, actual recoverability of deferred tax assets may differ materially from our estimates.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Comparison of the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.

 

Net sales during the quarter ended September 30, 2014, were $618,953, as compared to $731,564 in the quarter ended September 30, 2013, a decrease of $112,611, or approximately 15%. We believe that sales for the current three-month period decreased when compared to the previous year primarily due to back orders of products in the amount of approximately $121,000 not shipped at period end.

Gross profit during the quarter ended September 30, 2014 was $476,676, as compared to $559,138 during the quarter ended September 30, 2013, a decrease of $82,462, or 15%. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit was approximately 77% in the quarter ended September 30, 2014, and approximately 76% in the corresponding quarter in 2013.

 

Operating expenses during the quarter ended September 30, 2014 were $525,142, consisting of $295,989 in salaries and benefits and $229,153 in selling, general and administrative expenses. This compares to operating expenses during the quarter ended September 30, 2013 of $460,275, consisting of $282,004 in salaries and benefits, and $178,271 in selling, general and administrative expenses. Expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, increased by $64,867, or approximately 14%, compared to the corresponding quarter in 2013. Salaries and benefit expenses were increased for the quarter primarily due to the hiring of outside sales reps. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased primarily due to increases in legal fees and research and development cost.

 

Operating profit decreased by $147,329 to an operating loss of $48,466 for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, as compared to an operating profit of $98,863 in the comparable quarter of the prior year. Net Loss before income taxes was $47,785 during the quarter ended September 30, 2014, as compared to net income of $99,599 during the quarter ended September 30, 2013. We believe that the decrease in net income before income taxes was primarily attributable to the combination of the decrease in sales from a backorder of products combined with higher than usual expenses for legal fees and Research & Development expenses.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Management of the Company, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, management, including the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that all material information relating to the Company required to be disclosed in this report has been made known to management in a timely manner and ensuring that this information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations, because of the identification of a certain material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting which are identified below, which we view as an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

 

As previously reported, our annual assessment of the internal controls over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014 revealed a deficiency that we consider to be a material weakness: inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives.

 

During fiscal 2015, the Company will continue to address changes needed to improve segregation of duties consistent with control objectives. We have added staff to grow sales. We expect that increased sales will enable us to add support staff, specifically in the accounting and shipping departments. A secondary effect of adding more staff will address needed improvements in segregation of duties consistent with control objectives.
