NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

Organization and Going Concern

Strategic Environmental & Energy Resources, Inc. (“SEER,” “we,” or the “Company”), a Nevada corporation, is a provider of next-generation clean-technologies, waste management innovations and related services. SEER has three wholly owned subsidiaries in continuing operations, and three majority-owned subsidiaries; all of which together provide technology solutions and services to companies primarily in the oil and gas, refining, landfill, food, beverage & agriculture and renewable fuel industries. The three wholly-owned subsidiaries include: 1) REGS, LLC (d/b/a Resource Environmental Group Services (“REGS”)) provides industrial and proprietary cleaning services to refineries, oil fields and other private and governmental entities; 2) MV, LLC (d/b/a MV Technologies) (“MV”), designs and builds biogas conditioning solutions for the production of renewable natural gas and odor control systems primarily for landfill operations, waste-water treatment facilities, oil and gas fields, refineries, municipalities and food, beverage & agriculture operations throughout the U.S.; 3) SEER Environmental Materials, LLC,(“SEM”), a materials technology company focused on development of cost-effective chemical absorbents.

The three majority-owned subsidiaries are; 1) Paragon Waste Solutions, LLC (“PWS”); 2) ReaCH4Biogas (“Reach”) and 3) PelleChar, LLC (“PelleChar”). PWS is currently owned 54% by SEER (see Note 7), Reach is owned 85% by SEER and PelleChar is owned 51% by SEER.

PWS is developing specific opportunities to deploy and commercialize patented technologies for a non-thermal plasma-assisted oxidation process that makes possible the clean and efficient destruction of solid hazardous chemical and biological waste (i.e., regulated medical waste, chemicals, pharmaceuticals and refinery tank waste, etc.) without landfilling or traditional incineration and without harmful emissions. Additionally, PWS’ technology “cleans” and conditions emissions and gaseous waste streams (i.e., volatile organic compounds and other greenhouse gases) generated from diverse sources such as refineries, oil fields, and many others.

Reach (the trade name for BeneFuels, LLC) focuses specifically on developing renewable biomethane projects that convert raw biogas to pipeline quality gas and/or compressed natural gas (“CNG”) for fleet vehicle fuel. Reach had no operations for the quarters ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

PelleChar was formed in September 2018 and recently has secured third-party pellet manufacturing capabilities from one of the nation’s premier pellet manufacturer. Working closely with Biochar Now, LLC, PelleChar intends to commence sales in 2019 of its proprietary pellets containing the proven and superior Biochar Now product starting with the landscaping and big agriculture markets. At this time, PelleChar is the only company able to offer a soil amendment pellet containing the Biochar Now product that is produced using the patented pyrolytic process. For the quarter ended June 30, 2019 PelleChar had minimal activity related to formation.

Principals of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SEER, its wholly owned subsidiaries, REGS, MV and SEM and its majority-owned subsidiaries PWS, Reach and PelleChar, since their respective acquisition or formation dates. All material intercompany accounts, transactions, and profits have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company has non-controlling interest in joint ventures, which are reported on the equity method.

Going Concern

As shown in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has experienced recurring losses, and has accumulated a deficit of approximately $25.9 million as of June 30, 2019, and $24.4 million as of December 31, 2018. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 we had net losses from continuing operations before adjustment for losses attributable to non-controlling interest of approximately $1.6 million and $1.8 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018 our current liabilities exceed our current assets by approximately $6.2 million and $5.4 million, respectively. The primary reason for the increase in negative working capital from December 31, 2018 to June 30, 2019 is due to a net increase in short term debt of approximately $0.4 million, and losses from operations. The Company has limited common shares available for issue which may limit the ability to raise capital or settle debt through issuance of shares. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue to operate as a going concern for a period of at least one year after the date of the issuance of our audited financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2018.

Realization of a major portion of our assets as of December 31, 2018, is dependent upon our continued operations. The Company is dependent on generating additional revenue or obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. In addition, we have undertaken a number of specific steps to continue to operate as a going concern. We continue to focus on developing organic growth in our operating companies, diversifying our service customer base and market concentrations and improving gross and net margins through increased attention to pricing, aggressive cost management and overhead reductions. Critical to achieving profitability will be our ability to license and or sell, permit and operate through our joint ventures and licensees our CoronaLux™ waste destruction units. We have increased our business development efforts to address opportunities identified in expanding domestic markets attributable to increased federal and state emission control regulations (particularly in the nation’s oil and gas fields) and a growing demand for energy conservation and renewable energies. In addition, the Company is evaluating various forms of financing that may be available to it. There can be no assurance that the Company will secure additional financing for working capital, increase revenues and achieve the desired result of net income and positive cash flow from operations in future years. These financial statements do not give any effect to any adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to report on a going concern basis.

Basis of presentation Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all of the normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations as of and for the periods presented. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any future period.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the interim information presented not misleading. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Report on Form 10-K filed on April 16, 2019 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) requires management to make a number of estimates and assumptions related to the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the carrying amount of intangible assets; valuation allowances and reserves for receivables and inventory and deferred income taxes; revenue recognition related to contracts accounted for under the percentage of completion method; share-based compensation; and loss contingencies, including those related to litigation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported consolidated net loss.

Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance on revenue from contracts with customers that superseded most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The underlying principle of the guidance is to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new guidance requires an evaluation of revenue arrangements with customers following a five-step approach: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the company satisfies each performance obligation. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised services are transferred to the customers in an amount that reflects the expected consideration in exchange for those services. A customer obtains control when it has the ability to direct the use of and obtain the benefits from the services. Other major provisions of the guidance include capitalization of certain contract costs, consideration of the time value of money in the transaction price and allowing estimates of variable consideration to be recognized before contingencies are resolved in certain circumstances. The guidance also requires enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The Company adopted the provisions of this guidance effective January 1, 2018 as required under the guidance. The adoption of this guidance did not have any material impact on the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements (see Note 3).

Research and Development

Research and development (“R&D”) costs are charged to expense as incurred. R&D expenses consist primarily of salaries, project materials, contract labor and other costs associated with ongoing product development and enhancement efforts. R&D expenses were $0 and $300 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. R&D expenses were $0 and $600 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, Income Taxes, which utilizes the asset and liability method of computing deferred income taxes. The objective of this method is to establish deferred tax assets and liabilities for any temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled.

ASC 740 also provides detailed guidance for the financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in the financial statements. Tax positions must meet a “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 the Company recognized no adjustments for uncertain tax positions.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. No interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions were recognized at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The Company expects no material changes to unrecognized tax positions within the next twelve months.

The Company has filed federal and state tax returns through December 31, 2017. The tax periods for the years ending December 31, 2011 through 2017 are open to examination by federal and state authorities.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

Changes to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) in the form of accounting standards updates (ASU’s) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification. The Company considers the applicability and impact of all new or revised ASU’s.

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) in order to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for those leases classified as operating leases under prior GAAP. ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee should recognize 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 on the balance sheet. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 in the first quarter of 2019 utilizing the modified retrospective transition method. The Company has elected the package of practical expedients, which allows the Company not to reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts as of the adoption date are or contain a lease, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases as of the adoption date and (3) initial direct costs for any existing leases as of the adoption date. The Company did not elect to apply the hindsight practical expedient when determining lease term and assessing impairment of right-to-use assets. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019 resulted in the recognition of right-of-use assets of approximately $225,300, lease liabilities of $246,100 on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and a cumulative-effect adjustment on retained earnings of $20,800 on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets with no material impact to its Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

NOTE 3 – REVENUE

The Company adopted the provisions of the guidance in the new revenue standard under ASC 606 effective January 1, 2018 applying the modified retrospective method to all contracts. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under the new revenue recognition guidance, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the historic accounting under previous revenue recognition guidance. The adoption of this guidance did not have any material impact on the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements. There was no impact to net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2018 as a result of applying the new revenue recognition guidance.

Products Revenue

Product revenue generated from contracts with customers, for the manufacture of products for the removal and treatment of hazardous vapor and gasses. Total estimated revenue includes all of the following: (1) the basic contract price, (2) contract options, and (3) change orders. Once contract performance is underway, we may experience changes in conditions, client requirements, specifications, designs, materials and expectations regarding the period of performance. Such changes are “change orders” and may be initiated by us or by our clients. In many cases, agreement with the client as to the terms of change orders is reached prior to work commencing; however, sometimes circumstances require that work progress without obtaining client agreement. Revenue related to change orders is recognized as costs are incurred if it is probable that costs will be recovered by changing the contract price. The Company does not incur pre-contract costs. Under the new revenue recognition guidance, we found no change in the manner we recognize product revenue. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which the losses are identified and included as additional loss. Provisions for estimated losses on contracts are shown separately as liabilities on the balance sheet, if significant, except in circumstances in which related costs are accumulated on the balance sheet, in which case the provisions are deducted from the accumulated costs. A provision as a liability is reported as a current liability.

We include in current assets and current liabilities amounts related to contracts realizable and payable. Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts represent the excess of contract costs and profits recognized to date over billings to date and are recognized as a current asset. Revenue contract liabilities represent the excess of billings to date over the amount of contract costs and profits recognized to date and are recognized as a current liability.

Products revenue also includes media sales which are recognized as the product is shipped to the customer for use.

Services Revenue

Our services revenue is primarily comprised of services related to industrial cleaning and mobile railcar cleaning, which we recognize as services are rendered.

Solid Waste Revenue

The Company’s revenues from waste destruction licensing agreements are recognized as a single accounting unit over the term of the license. Revenue from joint venture operations of the Company’s CoronaLux™ units is recognized as the revenue is earned by the joint venture. Revenue from management services is recognized as services are performed.

Contract Balances

Where a performance obligation has been satisfied but not yet invoiced at the reporting date, a contract asset is recognized on the balance sheet. Where a performance obligation has not yet been satisfied but an invoice has been raised at the reporting date, a contract liability is recognized on the balance sheet.

The opening and closing balances of the Company’s accounts receivables and contract liabilities (current and non-current) are as follows:

				Contract Liabilities
	Accounts Receivable, net			Revenue Contract Liabilities			Deferred Revenue (current)			Deferred Revenue (non-current)
Balance as of June 30, 2019	$	513,500		$	92,300		$	32,900		$	46,700

Balance as of December 31, 2018		1,063,500			470,200			191,500			63,200

Increase (decrease)	$	(550,000	)	$	(377,900	)	$	(158,600	)	$	(16.500	)

The majority of the Company’s revenue is generally invoiced on a weekly or monthly basis, and the payments are generally received within approximately 30-60 days. Deferred revenue is recorded when cash payments are received or due in advance of the Company’s performance, including amounts that are refundable.

Remaining Performance Obligations

As of June 30, 2019, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations was approximately $1,098,800, of which the Company expects to recognize revenue of approximately 99% over the next 24 months, including 96% over the next 12 months.

The Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected term of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which the Company recognizes revenue at the amounts to which it has the right to invoice for services performed.

NOTE 6 – LEASES

The Company has entered into operating leases primarily for real estate. These leases have terms which range from 4 year to 6 years, and often include one or more options to renew. These renewal terms can extend the lease term from 1 year to month-to-month and are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. These operating leases are included in "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" and “Other assets” on the Company's June 30, 2019 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The Company’s obligation to make lease payments are included in "Accrued liabilities" and “Other non-current liabilities” on the Company's June 30, 2019 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Based on the present value of the lease payments for the remaining lease term of the Company's existing leases, the Company recognized right-of-use assets of approximately $225,300 and lease liabilities for operating leases of approximately $246,100 on January 1, 2019. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities commencing after January 1, 2019 are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As of June 30, 2019, total right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities were approximately $531,200 and $548,100, respectively. All operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized approximately $68,300 in operating lease costs for right-of-use assets. In the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized approximately $133,900 in operating lease costs for right-of-use assets.

Because the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease payments. The Company has certain contracts for real estate which may contain lease and non-lease components which it has elected to treat as a single lease component.

Information related to the Company’s right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities were as follows:

	2019		2018
Accrued interest	$	11,800	$	11,800
	$	11,800	$	11,800

We believe the stated interest rates on the related party notes payable represent reasonable market rates based on the note payable arrangements we have executed with third parties.

In March 2012, the Company entered into an Irrevocable License & Royalty Agreement with PWS that grants PWS an irrevocable world-wide license to the IP in exchange for a 5% royalty on all revenues from PWS and its affiliates. The term commenced as of the date of the Agreement and shall continue for a period not to exceed the life of the patent or patents filed by the Company. PWS may sub license the IP and any revenue derived from sub licensing shall be included in the calculation of Gross Revenue for purposes of determining royalty payments due the Company. Royalty payments are due 30 days after the end of each calendar quarter. PWS generated licensing and unit sales revenues of approximately $8,200 and $33,500 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and $134,800 for the years ended December 31, 2018, as such, royalties of $122,000 and $120,300 were due at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

In October 2014, PWS and Medical Waste Services, LLC (“MWS”) formed a contractual joint venture to exploit the PWS medical waste destruction technology. In 2015, MWS licensed and installed a CoronaLux™ unit at an MWS facility, and subsequently received a limited permit to operate. In November 2017 a full permit was issued, and the unit is now fully operating. Operations to date have included the destruction of medical waste. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and the year ended December 31, 2018, PWS has recorded $13,900 and $34,400 in income which represents their 50% interest in the net income of the joint venture, respectively. PWS did not incur any costs incurred on behalf of the joint venture for the six months ended June 30, 2019 nor the year ended December 31, 2018.

NOTE 13 – EQUITY TRANSACTIONS

2019

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company issued 300,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock to short-term note holders as required under their respective agreements. (See Note 11)

2018

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded 2,010,000 shares of $.001 par value common stock as issuable to short-term note holders as required under their respective agreements. (See Note 10)

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company sold 250,000 shares of $.001 par value common stock at $.48 per share in a private placement, receiving proceeds of $120,000.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company issued 75,000 shares of $.001 par value common stock at $.77 per share for services valued at approximately $58,000.

Non-controlling Interest

The non-controlling interest presented in our condensed consolidated financial statements reflects a 46% non-controlling equity interest in PWS and 49% non-controlling equity interest in PelleChar. Net losses attributable to non-controlling interest, as reported on our condensed consolidated statements of operations, represents the net loss of each entity attributable to the non-controlling equity interest. The non-controlling interest is reflected within stockholders’ equity on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

NOTE 14 – CUSTOMER CONCENTRATIONS

The Company had sales from operations to two customers for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and two customers for the six months ended June 30, 2018, that surpassed the 10% threshold of total revenue. In total, these customers represented approximately 32% and 43% of our total sales, respectively. The concentration of the Company’s business with a relatively small number of customers may expose us to a material adverse effect if one or more of these large customers were to experience financial difficulty or were to cease being customers for non-financial related issues.

NOTE 15 – NET LOSS PER SHARE

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of common shares that would be issued assuming exercise or conversion of all potentially dilutive common shares. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation when their effect would be anti-dilutive. For all years presented in the consolidated financial statements, all potentially dilutive securities have been excluded from the diluted share calculations as they were anti-dilutive as a result of the net losses incurred for the respective years. Accordingly, basic shares equal diluted shares for all years presented.

Potentially dilutive securities were comprised of the following:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2019		2018
Warrants		2,128,900		7,658,400
Options		125,000		1,572,500
Convertible notes payable, including accrued interest		2,566,300		2,417,300
		4,820,200		11,648,200

NOTE 16 – ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS AND REGULATION

Significant federal environmental laws affecting us are the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”), the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), also known as the “Superfund Act”, the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act and the Toxic Substances Control Act (“TSCA”).

Pursuant to the EPA’s authorization of the RCRA equivalent programs, a number of states have regulatory programs governing the operations and permitting of hazardous waste facilities. Our facilities are regulated pursuant to state statutes, including those addressing clean water and clean air. Our facilities are also subject to local siting, zoning and land use restrictions. We believe we are in substantial compliance with all federal, state and local laws regulating our business.

NOTE 17 – SEGMENT INFORMATION AND MAJOR CUSTOMERS

The Company currently has identified three segments as follows:

	REGS	Industrial Cleaning
	MV and SEM	Environmental Solutions
	PWS	Solid Waste

Reach has had no operations and PelleChar had minimal operations through June 30, 2019.

The composition of our reportable segments is consistent with that used by our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) to evaluate performance and allocate resources. All of our operations are located in the U.S. We have not allocated corporate selling, general and administrative expenses, and stock-based compensation to the segments. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

Segment information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 is as follows:

NOTE 18 – LITIGATION

In January 2016, an employee of SEM was involved in a vehicle accident while on Company business. Various actions were filed by the claimants in both state and federal courts. In August 2016, an involuntary proceeding was commenced by one of the claimants against SEM under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy code. In September 2016, the case was converted to a Chapter 11 under the Bankruptcy code. During the pendency of all actions, SEM continued to manage its affairs and operate normally. In the fourth quarter of 2016, the parties reached a settlement concerning the distribution of insurance proceeds and all issues of liability. On March 27, 2017 the Bankruptcy Courts confirmed the dismissal of the SEM Chapter 11 case. As part of the bankruptcy proceedings, the Company reached a settlement with claimants and recorded an accrued litigation expense of $212,500 at December 31, 2016. It was agreed among the parties that all pending state and/or federal claims will be dismissed with prejudice. The accrued litigation outstanding at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $133,333 and $133,333, respectively.

In October 2018, a complaint was filed by a contractor company of a mutual customer of MV, a subsidiary of the Company. The complaint claimed that in 2016 MV delivered defective and poorly manufactured treatment vessels to the project and that due to such delivery, the contractor company sustained $251,160 in damages in the effort to repair the error. At the same time, the mutual customer had an outstanding balance due MV of $224,000 and MV had an outstanding balance due the vessel manufacturer of $82,600. In the first quarter of 2019, the parties reached a settlement whereby MV paid the contractor company a total of $160,000, the joint customer paid the outstanding invoice amounts of $224,000 and the vessel manufacturer waived the $82,600 due from MV for the faultily manufactured vessel. The case was dismissed with prejudiced and the matter is closed.

NOTE 19 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 2, 2019, the Company borrowed $100,000 under a short-term note, secured by all assets of Pellechar, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company. The note bears annual simple interest, at a rate of 12%. The Lender received a one-time stock option grant to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock, at $0.70 a share. The options have a contract term of three years.

On July 18, 2019, the Company borrowed $150,000 under a short-term note from a current lender. The Company paid a one-time fee of $5,000 and will accrue a fee of $500 for each week after August 1, 2019 the note is outstanding. If the note is not repaid on or before the seventh month the note is outstanding, 30,000 shares of restricted common stock of the Company shall be issued to the lender.

In August 2019, the Company collected a note receivable of $300,000, which was fully allowed for previously. The collection resulted in the recording of a gain for the entire amount, as the carrying value was $0.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion is intended to assist you in understanding our business and the results of our operations. It should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this report as well as our Report on Form 10K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 16, 2019. Certain statements made in our discussion may be forward looking. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties and a number of factors could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from our expectations. These risks, uncertainties, and other factors include, among others, the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as other risks described in this Quarterly Report. Unless the context requires otherwise, when we refer to “we,” “us” and “our,” we are describing Strategic Environmental & Energy Resources, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

SEER BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Strategic Environmental & Energy Resources, Inc. (“the Company” or “SEER”) was originally organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on February 13, 2002 for the purpose of acquiring one or more businesses, under the name of Satellite Organizing Solutions, Inc (“SOZG”). In January 2008, SOZG changed its name to Strategic Environmental & Energy Resources, Inc., reduced its number of outstanding shares through a reverse stock split and consummated the acquisition of both, REGS, LLC and Tactical Cleaning Company, LLC. SEER is dedicated to assembling complementary service and environmental, clean-technology businesses that provide safe, innovative, cost effective, and profitable solutions in the oil & gas, environmental, waste management and renewable energy industries. SEER currently operates five companies with four offices in the western and mid-western U.S. Through these operating companies, SEER provides products and services throughout the U.S. and has licensed technologies with many customer installations throughout the U.S. Each of the five operating companies is discussed in more detail below. The Company also has non-controlling interests in joint ventures, some of which have no or minimal operations.

The Company’s domestic strategy is to grow internally through SEER’s subsidiaries that have well established revenue streams and, simultaneously, establish long-term alliances with and/or acquire complementary domestic businesses in rapidly growing markets for renewable energy, waste and water treatment and oil & gas services. The focus of the SEER family of companies, however is to increase margins by securing or developing proprietary patented and patent-pending technologies and then leveraging its 20 plus-year service experience to place these innovations and solutions into the growing markets of emission capture and control, renewable “green gas” capture and sale, compressed natural gas (“CNG”) fuel generation, as well as general solid waste and medical/pharmaceutical waste destruction. Many of SEER’s current operating companies share customer bases and each provides truly synergistic services, technologies and products as well as annuity type revenue streams.

The company now owns and manages four operating entities and two entities that has no significant operations to date.

Subsidiaries

REGS, LLC d/b/a Resource Environmental Group Services (“REGS”): (operating since 1994) provides general industrial cleaning services and waste management to many industry sectors focusing primarily on oil & gas production (upstream) and refineries (downstream).

MV, LLC (d/b/a MV Technologies), (“MV”): (operating since 2003) MV designs and sells patented and/or proprietary, dry scrubber solutions for management of Hydrogen Sulfide (H₂S) in biogas, landfill gas, and petroleum processing operations. These system solutions are marketed under the product names H2SPlus™ and OdorFilter™. The markets for these products include land fill operations, agricultural and food product processors, wastewater treatment facilities, and petroleum product refiners. MV also develops and designs proprietary technologies and systems used to condition biogas for use as renewable natural gas (“RNG”), for a number of applications, such as transportation fuel and natural gas pipeline injection.

Paragon Waste Solutions, LLC (“PWS”): (formed late 2010) PWS is an operating company that has developed a patented waste destruction technology using a pyrolytic heating process combined with “non-thermal plasma” assisted oxidation. This technique involves gasification of solid waste by heating the waste in a low-oxygen environment, followed by complete oxidation at higher temperatures in the presence of plasma. The term “non-thermal plasma” refers to a low energy ionized gas that is generated by electrical discharges between two electrodes. This technology, commercially referred to as CoronaLux™, is designed and intended for the “clean” destruction of hazardous chemical and biological waste (i.e., hospital “red bag” waste) thereby eliminating the need for costly segregation, transportation, incineration or landfill (with their associated legacy liabilities). PWS is a 54% owned subsidiary.

ReaCH4BioGas (“Reach”) (trade name for Benefuels, LLC): (formed February 2013) owned 85% by SEER. Reach develops renewable natural gas projects that convert raw biogas into pipeline quality gas and/or Renewable, “RNG”, for fleet vehicles. Reach had no operations as of June 30, 2019.

SEER Environmental Materials, LLC (“SEM”): (formed September 2015) is a wholly owned subsidiary established as a materials technology business with the purpose of developing advanced chemical absorbents and catalysts that enhance the capability of biogas produced from, landfill, wastewater treatment operations and agricultural digester operations.

PelleChar, LLC (“PelleChar”): (formed September 2018) owned 51% by SEER. PelleChar has secured third-party pellet manufacturing capabilities from one of the nation’s premier pellet manufacturer. Working closely with Biochar Now, LLC, PelleChar intends to commence sales in 2019 of its proprietary pellets containing the proven and superior Biochar Now product starting with the landscaping and big agriculture markets. At this time, PelleChar is the only company able to offer a soil amendment pellet containing the Biochar Now product that is produced using the patented pyrolytic process. PelleChar had minimal operations as of June 30, 2019.

Joint Ventures

MV RCM Joint Venture: In April 2013, MV Technologies, Inc (“MV”) and RCM International, LLC (“RCM”) entered into an Agreement to develop hybrid scrubber systems that employ elements of RCM Technology and MV Technology (the “Joint Venture”). RCM and MV Technologies will independently market the hybrid scrubber systems. The contractual Joint Venture has an initial term of five years and will automatically renew for successive one-year periods unless either Party gives the other Party one hundred and eighty (180) days’ notice prior to the applicable renewal date. Operations to date of the Joint Venture have been limited to formation activities.

Paragon Waste (UK) Ltd: In June 2014, PWS and PCI Consulting Ltd (“PCI”) formed Paragon Waste (UK) Ltd (“Paragon UK Joint Venture”) to develop, permit and exploit the PWS waste destruction technology within the territory of Ireland and the United Kingdom. PWS and PCI each own 50% of the voting shares of Paragon UK Joint Venture. Operations to date of the Paragon UK Joint Venture have been limited to formation, the delivery of a CoronaLux™ unit with a third party in the United Kingdom and application and permitting efforts with regulatory entities.

P&P Company: In February 2015, PWS and Particle Science Tech of Environmental Protection, Inc. (“Particle Science”) formed a joint venture, Particle & Paragon Environmental Solutions, Inc (“P&P”) to exploit the PWS technology in China, including Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. PWS and Particle Science each own 50% of P&P. Operations to date have been limited to formation of P&P and the sale and delivery of a CoronaLux™ unit to Particle Science in China.

PWS MWS Joint Venture: In October 2014, PWS and Medical Waste Services, LLC (“MWS”) formed a contractual joint venture to exploit the PWS medical waste destruction technology. In 2015, MWS licensed and installed a CoronaLux™ unit at an MWS facility, and subsequently received a limited permit to operate from the South Coast Air Quality Management District (“SCAQMD”) and the California Department of Public Health. In November 2017, PWS received final air quality permit approval from SCAQMD allowing for full operations of the CoronaLux™ unit at the MWS facility.

Paragon Southwest Joint Venture: In December 2017, PWS and GulfWest Waste Solutions, LLC (“GWWS”) formed Paragon Southwest Medical Waste, LLC (“PSMW”) to exploit the PWS medical waste destruction technology. PSMW will have an exclusive license to the CoronaLux™ technology in a six-state area of the Southern United States. In addition to the equity position, PWS will be the operating partner for the business and sell a number of additional systems to the joint venture over the next five years. In 2017, PSMW purchased and installed three CoronaLux™ units at an PSMW facility. Operations in the form of medical waste destruction began in the first quarter of 2018.

SEER’s Financial Condition and Liquidity

As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has experienced recurring losses, and has accumulated a deficit of approximately $26 million as of June 30, 2019, and $24.4 million as of December 31, 2018. For the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 we had net losses from continuing operations before adjustment for losses attributable to non-controlling interest of approximately $1 million and $1.1 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 we had net losses from continuing operations before adjustments for losses attributable to non-controlling interest of approximately $1.6 million and $1.8 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018 our current liabilities exceed our current assets by approximately $6.2 million and $5.3 million, respectively. The primary reason for the increase in negative working capital from December 31, 2018 to June 30, 2019 is due to a net increase in short term debt of approximately $.4 million, and losses from operations. The Company has limited common shares available for issue which may limit the ability to raise capital or settle debt through issuance of shares. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue to operate as a going concern for a period of at least one year after the date of the issuance of our audited financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2018.

Realization of a major portion of our assets as of June 30, 2019, is dependent upon our continued operations. The Company is dependent on generating additional revenue or obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. In addition, we have undertaken a number of specific steps to continue to operate as a going concern. We continue to focus on developing organic growth in our operating companies, diversifying our service customer base and market concentrations and improving gross and net margins through increased attention to pricing, aggressive cost management and overhead reductions. Critical to achieving profitability will be our ability to license and or sell, permit and operate through our joint ventures and licensees our CoronaLux™ waste destruction units. We have increased our business development efforts to address opportunities identified in expanding domestic markets attributable to increased federal and state emission control regulations (particularly in the nation’s oil and gas fields) and a growing demand for energy conservation and renewable energies. In addition, the Company is evaluating various forms of financing that may be available to it. There can be no assurance that the Company will secure additional financing for working capital, increase revenues and achieve the desired result of net income and positive cash flow from operations in future years. These financial statements do not give any effect to any adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to report on a going concern basis.

Our primary need for liquidity is to fund working capital requirements of our businesses, capital expenditures and for general corporate purposes, including debt repayment. We have incurred losses and experienced negative operating cash flows for the past several years, and accordingly, the Company has taken a number of actions to continue to support its operations and meet its obligations. The sale of assets and liabilities of Tactical and certain locations within REGS provided the Company working capital in 2017 to repay short-term notes totaling $650,000 and accelerate growth of our high-margin technology divisions. We reduced selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses in 2018 as a result of the sale of those assets. We formed PelleChar and raised $1 million of minority interest investment to bring that product to market and add to the operating cash flows of the Company. We believe that the actions discussed above are probable of occurring and mitigating the substantial doubt raised by our historical operating results and satisfying our estimated liquidity needs 12 months from the issuance of the financial statements. However, we cannot predict, with certainty, the outcome of our actions to generate liquidity, including the availability of additional debt financing, or whether such actions would generate the expected liquidity as currently planned. If we continue to experience operating losses, and we are not able to generate additional liquidity through the mechanisms described above or through some combination of other actions, while not expected, we might need to secure additional sources of funds, which may or may not be available to us. Additionally, a failure to generate additional liquidity could negatively impact our access to inventory or services that are important to the operation of our business.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2019 and 2018

Total revenues were approximately $1.5 million and $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decrease in revenue comparing Q2 2019 to Q2 2018 is driven by a decrease of approximately $.3 million or 37% in industrial cleaning revenue coupled by a decrease in revenue of $.7 million or 42% in environmental solutions revenue. The decrease in the industrial cleaning revenue is due largely to a lack of mobile rail car cleaning services further reduced by a decrease in overall utilization of assets. The decrease in environmental solutions revenue is due to a decrease in media sales revenue. Solid waste revenue also decreased when comparing Q2 2019 to Q2 2018 by $.2 million or 26% due to a decrease in joint venture operating revenue.

Operating costs, which include cost of products, cost of services, solid waste costs, general and administrative (G&A) expenses and salaries and related expenses, were $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in operating costs between the quarters was primarily the result of a 1) a 42% decrease in environmental solutions revenue resulting in a 41% decrease in environmental solutions costs totaling approximately ($387,400), 2) a 37% decrease in industrial cleaning revenue resulting in a 6% decrease in industrial cleaning costs totaling approximately ($48,900), 3) an approximately ($83,400) decrease in general and administrative expenses primarily driven by a decrease in professional services of approximately $69,000 and 4) an approximately ($63,300) decrease in salaries and related expenses. Product costs as a percentage of product revenues were 64% for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 and 62% for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in margin performance for the product sales is due to a decreased long-term project margin. Services costs as a percentage of services revenues were 149% for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 and 101% for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in margin performance for the services sector is due to a decreased utilization of manpower and the ability to utilize and bill our own equipment versus renting third-party equipment. We also were not able to recapture all project startup costs during the quarter. Solid waste costs as a percentage of revenues were 15% for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 and 10% for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in margin performance for the solid waste segment is related to a decrease in operating fee revenue.

Total non-operating other income (expense), net was ($118,400) for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to ($583,300) for the three months ended June 30, 2018. For the three months ended June 30, 2019 non-operating expenses were comprised of interest expense of ($112,400) and other expense of ($6,000). For the three months ended June 30, 2018 non-operating expenses were comprised of interest expense of ($613,800) offset by interest income of $11,800 and other income of $16,700. The decrease in interest expense in Q2 2019 compared to Q2 2018 was primarily the result of timing of short term debt and the Company having to issue common stock to note holders in accordance with penalty clauses included in the short term notes when the Company was unable to satisfy the notes when they came due.

There is no provision for income taxes for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 due to prior year losses and for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, year-to-date losses.

The Company had a net loss, before non-controlling interest, for the three months ended June 30, 2019 of ($990,900) compared to a net loss, before non-controlling interest, of ($1,072,100) for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Net loss attributable to SEER after deducting $39,100 for the non-controlling interest income was ($951,800) for the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to a net loss attributable to SEER of ($1,026,900), after deducting $4,200 in non-controlling interest loss for the three months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018 was largely related to the fact that interest expense decreased approximately $501,400 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018.

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 and 2018

Total revenues were approximately $2.9 million and $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decrease in revenue comparing the six months ending June 30, 2019 to the six months ending June 30, 2018 is driven by a decrease of approximately $1 million or 58% in industrial cleaning revenue and by a decrease of $.4 million or 18% in environmental solutions revenue. The decrease in the industrial cleaning revenue is due largely to a lack of mobile rail car cleaning services further reduced by a decrease in overall utilization of assets. The decrease in environmental solutions revenue is due to a decrease in media sales. Solid waste revenue decreased by $0.04 million or 20% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Operating costs, which include cost of products, cost of services, solid waste costs, general and administrative (G&A) expenses and salaries and related expenses, were $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $5.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in operating costs between the six months ending June 30, 2019 compared to the six months ending June 30, 2018 was primarily the result of a 1) a 18% decrease in environmental solutions revenue resulting in a 17% decrease in environmental solutions costs totaling approximately ($255,900), 2) a 58% decrease in industrial cleaning revenue resulting in a 27% decrease in industrial cleaning costs totaling approximately ($437,700), 3) an approximately ($60,800) decrease in general and administrative expenses primarily driven by a decrease in depreciation of approximately ($31,000) coupled with a decrease in utilities and facilities expenses of approximately ($23,000) and 4) an approximately ($144,700) decrease in salaries and related expenses. Product costs as a percentage of product revenues were 61% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 61% for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Services costs as a percentage of services revenues were 159% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 93% for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in margin performance for the services sector is due to a decreased utilization of manpower and the ability to utilize and bill our own equipment versus renting third-party equipment. We also were not able to recapture all project startup costs during the six months ended. Solid waste costs as a percentage of revenues were 25% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 14% for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in margin performance for the solid waste segment is related to a decrease in joint venture operating revenue.

Total non-operating other income (expense), net was ($86,000) for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to ($918,600) for the six months ended June 30, 2018. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 non-operating expenses were comprised of interest expense of ($262,200) offset by interest income of $9,800 and other income of $166,400 primarily related to a reduction of aged accounts payable balances which have passed their statute of limitations for collections. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 non-operating expenses were comprised of interest expense of ($979,600) offset by interest income of $21,700 and other income of $39,300. The decrease in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily the result of timing of short term debt and the Company having to issue common stock to note holders in accordance with penalty clauses included in the short term notes when the Company was unable to satisfy the notes when they came due.

There is no provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2019 due to prior year losses and for the six months ended June 30, 2019, year-to-date losses.

The Company had a net loss, before non-controlling interest, for the six months ended June 30, 2019 of ($1,569,800) compared to a net loss, before non-controlling interest, of ($1,819,400) for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Net loss attributable to SEER after deducting $67,400 for the non-controlling interest income was ($1,502,400) for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to a net loss attributable to SEER of ($1,757,600), after deducting $20,800 in non-controlling interest loss for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease in net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018 was largely related to the fact that interest expense decreased approximately $717,400 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Changes in Cash Flow

Operating Activities

The Company had net cash used by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 of ($1,017,500) compared to net cash used by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 of ($296,800), a reduction of cash of approximately ($720,700). Cash used by operating activities is driven by our net loss and adjusted by non-cash items as well as changes in operating assets and liabilities. Non-cash adjustments primarily include depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense and non-cash interest expense. Non-cash adjustment totaled $223,000 and $1,177,300 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, so non-cash adjustments had a larger impact on net cash used by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019 by approximately $954,300. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the net positive change in operating assets and liabilities was $345,300 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019 of $329,300. The minimal change in operating assets and liabilities had a lesser impact on net cash used by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Investing activities

Net cash provided by investing activities was $714,300 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $223,9000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The purchase of property and equipment was ($64,000) for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to no use of cash for the purchase of property and equipment for the six months ended June 30, 2018. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company received $226,000 in proceeds from outside minority investment in PelleChar. The proceeds from notes receivable totaled $552,800 and $224,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase in notes receivable proceeds relates to the Company’s negotiation of an early earnout payment received in full.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $294,500 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to $196,400 for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The primary difference is that in the six months ended June 30, 2019, we had net proceeds related to debt of approximately $294,500 compared to net proceeds related to debt of approximately $76,400 in the six months ended June 30, 2018 and proceeds from the sale of common stock of $120,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018, but no proceeds from the sale of common stock for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Critical Accounting Policies, Judgments and Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) requires management to make a number of estimates and assumptions related to the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the carrying amount of intangible assets; valuation allowances and reserves for receivables, inventory and deferred income taxes; revenue recognition related to contracts accounted for under the percentage of completion method; share-based compensation; and loss contingencies, including those related to litigation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounts Receivable and Concentration of Credit Risk

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amounts less an allowance for doubtful accounts and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on our estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in our accounts receivable. We determine the allowance for doubtful accounts based upon an aging of accounts receivable, historical experience and management judgment. Accounts receivable balances are reviewed individually for collectability, and balances are charged off against the allowance when we determine that the potential for recovery is remote. An allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $227,500 and $227,500 has been reserved as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

We are exposed to credit risk in the normal course of business, primarily related to accounts receivable. Our customers operate primarily in the oil production and refining, rail transport, biogas generating and wastewater treatment industries in the United States. Accordingly, we are affected by the economic conditions in these industries as well as general economic conditions in the United States. To limit credit risk, management periodically reviews and evaluates the financial condition of its customers and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts. As of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, we do not believe that we have significant credit risk.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of our financial instruments, including accounts receivable and accounts payable, are carried at cost, which approximates their fair value due to their short-term maturities. We believe that the carrying value of notes payable with third parties, including their current portion, approximate their fair value, as those instruments carry market interest rates based on our current financial condition and liquidity. We believe the amounts due to related parties also approximate their fair value, as their carried interest rates are consistent with those of our notes payable with third parties.

Long-lived Assets

We evaluate the carrying value of long-lived assets for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. An asset is considered to be impaired when the anticipated undiscounted future cash flows of an asset group are estimated to be less than its carrying value. The amount of impairment recognized is the difference between the carrying value of the asset group and its fair value. Fair value estimates are based on assumptions concerning the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows. No impairment was determined as of June 30, 2019. As of December 31, 2018, the Company determined an impairment to one CoronaLux™ units of $70,700 incurred due to lack of use of the licensed unit.

Revenue Recognition

Stock-based Compensation

We account for stock-based awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognize compensation over the service period that they are expected to vest. We estimate the fair value of stock options and stock purchase warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The estimated value of the portion of a stock-based award that is ultimately expected to vest, taking into consideration estimated forfeitures, is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods. The estimate of stock awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent that actual forfeitures differ from estimated forfeitures, such differences are accounted for as a cumulative adjustment to compensation expenses and recorded in the period that estimates are revised.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not Applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

As of the end of the period covered by this report, and under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and the person performing the similar function as Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation and subject to the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15 (f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
