PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION, CONTINUED:
United States Antimony Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation:
The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, as well as the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements have been included. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2015.
Certain consolidated financial statement amounts for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014, have been reclassified to conform to the 2015 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the net income (loss) or cash flows or accumulated deficit as previously reported.
For further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company incurred interest expense of $57,169 and $68,986, respectively, of which $56,987 and $67,876, respectively, has been capitalized as part of the cost of construction projects in Mexico.
2. Income (Loss) Per Common Share:
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the effect of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, including warrants to purchase the Company's common stock and convertible preferred stock. Warrants equal to common stock equivalents of 163,194 shares have been added to the weighted average shares of outstanding common stock of 66,170,495 at September 30, 2015, to determine the diluted income per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Management has determined that the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 and the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014, is not applicable since any additions to outstanding shares related to common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive.
As of September 30, 2015 and 2014, the potentially dilutive common stock equivalents not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive are as follows:

3.Inventories:
Inventories at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, consisted primarily of finished antimony products, antimony metal, antimony ore, and finished zeolite products that are stated at the lower of first-in, first-out cost or estimated net realizable value. Finished antimony products, antimony metal and finished zeolite products costs include raw materials, direct labor and processing facility overhead costs and freight. Inventory at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, is as follows:

During the first quarter of 2015 the Company discovered it had been overcharged for raw material purchases from a vendor. The Company brought the matter to the vendor’s attention and received a $914,967 credit to accounts payable due the vendor that has been recorded as gain on liability adjustment during the nine months ended September 30, 2015.
4. Accounts Receivable and Due to Factor:
The Company factors designated trade receivables pursuant to a factoring agreement with LSQ Funding Group L.C., an unrelated factor (the “Factor”). The agreement specifies that eligible trade receivables are factored with recourse. We submit selected trade receivables to the factor, and receive 83% of the face value of the receivable by wire transfer. The Factor withholds 15% as retainage, and 2% as a servicing fee. Upon payment by the customer, we receive the remainder of the amount due from the factor. The 2% servicing fee is recorded on the consolidated statement of operations in the period of sale to the factor. John Lawrence, CEO, is a personal guarantor of the amount due to Factor.
Trade receivables assigned to the Factor are carried at the original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful accounts. Under the terms of the recourse provision, the Company is required to reimburse the Factor, upon demand, for factored receivables that are not paid on time. Accordingly, these receivables are accounted for as a secured financing arrangement and not as a sale of financial assets. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management’s regular evaluation of individual customer’s receivables and consideration of a customer’s financial condition and credit history. Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received. Interest is not charged on past due accounts.

5. Mineral Properties:
Guadalupe
On March 7, 2012 and on April 4, 2012 the Company entered into a supply agreement and a loan agreement, respectively, (“the Agreements”) with several individuals collectively referred to as ‘Grupo Roga’ or ‘Guadalupe.’ During the term of the supply agreement the Company funded certain of Guadalupe’s equipment purchases, tax payments, labor costs, milling and trucking costs, and other expenses incurred in the Guadalupe mining operations for approximately $112,000. In addition to the advances for mining costs, the Company purchased antimony ore from Guadalupe that failed to meet agreed upon antimony metal recoveries and resulted in approximately $475,000 of excess advances paid to Guadalupe.
The Agreements with Guadalupe granted the Company an option to purchase the concessions outright for $2,000,000. On September 29, 2015, the Company notified the owners of Guadalupe that it was exercising the option to purchase the Guadalupe property. The option exercise agreement allowed the Company to apply all amounts previously due the Company (the “Purchase Price Credits”) by Grupo Roga of $586,892 to the purchase price consideration, resulting in a net obligation for the purchase of the Guadalupe mine of $1,413,107. The Company is obligated to make annual payments that vary from $60,000 to $149,077 annually through 2026. The debt payable for the Guadalupe mine is non-interest bearing. On September 29, 2015, the Company recorded the debt and the related Guadalupe mine asset by determining the net present value of the contractual stream of payments due using a 6% discount rate. The resulting discount on the Guadalupe debt was $440,385 at September 30, 2015, and is netted against the debt payable resulting in a carrying amount of $972,721. At September 30, 2015, the Company had made a $5,000 payment toward this note and the balance was $967,721. The discount is being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the life of the debt.
Soyatal
On October 30, 2009, the Company entered into a supply agreement with the owners of the Soyatal concessions similar to that of Guadalupe. During the term of the supply agreement the Company funded certain of Soyatal’s equipment purchases, tax payments, labor costs, milling and trucking costs, and other expenses incurred in the Soyatal mining operations for approximately $140,000. In addition to the advances for mining costs, the Company purchased antimony ore from Soyatal that failed to meet agreed upon antimony metal recoveries and resulted in approximately $320,000 of excess advances paid to Soyatal. On April 4, 2012, the Company negotiated an option to purchase the Soyatal properties for $1,500,000, and made a deposit on the option of $55,000.

5. Mineral Properties, Continued:
On August 5, 2013, the Company notified the owners of Soyatal that it was exercising the option to purchase the Soyatal property. The option exercise agreement allowed the Company to apply all amounts previously due the Company (the “Purchase Price Credits”) by Soyatal of $420,411 to the purchase price consideration. At December 31, 2013, the Company had Purchase Price Credits of approximately $325,000 which can be used as payments on the obligation at the rate of $100,000 per year until gone. The Company is obligated to make payments of $200,000 annually through 2020, and a final payment of $100,000 is due in 2021. The debt payable for the Soyatal mine is non-interest bearing. In 2013, the Company recorded the debt and the related Soyatal mine asset by determining the net present value of the contractual stream of payments due using a 6% discount rate. The resulting discount on the Soyatal debt was approximately $212,000 at December 31, 2013, and is netted against the debt payable resulting in a discounted amount of $762,541 at December 31, 2013. The discount is being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the life of the debt.
During 2014, $45,752 of the discount was amortized to the Soyatal debt, resulting in a discounted amount owed of $808,293 and a remaining debt discount of approximately $166,248 at December 31, 2014. The Company agreed to pay the Soyatal debt holder $100,000 during 2014 as part of the down payment agreement, and at September 30, 2015, this debt had been paid. In addition, the Company did not make the $100,000 payment due in January of 2015. The Company has been making payments of $5,000 per month that have been informally agreed to by the parties while the future payment terms of the Soyatal debt are negotiated. These payments, which were recorded as reductions to the obligation the Company agreed to pay in 2014 as noted above, have been recorded as reductions of long term debt once the 2014 agreement was satisfied.
6. Commitments and Contingencies:
In 2005, Antimonio de Mexico S.A. de C.V. (“AM”) signed an option agreement that gives AM the exclusive right to explore and develop the San Miguel I and San Miguel II concessions for annual payments. Total payments will not exceed $1,430,344, reduced by taxes paid. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and the year ended December 31, 2014, $100,000 and $200,000, respectively, was paid and capitalized as mineral rights in accordance with the Company’s accounting policies. At September 30, 2015, the following payments are scheduled: $91,739 on December 15, 2015.
In June of 2013, the Company entered into a lease to mine antimony ore from concessions located in the Wadley Mining district in Mexico. The lease calls for a mandatory term of one year and requires payments of $34,800 per month. The lease is renewable each year with a 15 day notice to the lessor, and agreement of terms. The lease was renewed in June of 2015.
From time to time, the Company is assessed fines and penalties by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”). Using appropriate regulatory channels, management may contest these proposed assessments, and has no accrued liabilities as of September 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014, respectively, related to these settled claims.

6. Commitments and Contingencies, Continued:
During the first quarter of 2015, the Company discovered that our IMMEX certification had expired and that the Company would be required to renew it. Without the IMMEX certification, the Company was required to pay the national sales tax of 16% on all items that the Company imports into Mexico, including capital items and the concentrates from Hillgrove of Australia. IMMEX requires that the Company export a minimum of 60% of everything that is imported into Mexico. The Company has met this requirement at this time. At September 30, 2015, the Company had paid in approximately $354,000, and had applied approximately $101,000 for payment of other Company taxes, leaving a net amount of approximately $253,000 included in other current assets, on deposit with the Mexican tax authorities. The Company believes that this will either ultimately be refunded, or applied to reduce other tax liabilities. The Company’s accountants and attorneys in Mexico are working on the refund application.
7. Note Payable to Bank:
During 2012, the Company negotiated a new credit facility increasing the Company’s lines of credit by $202,000. As part of this agreement, the Company has pledged two $101,000 certificates of deposit as collateral. The increased loan facility allows us access to borrowings at an interest rate of 5.0% for the portion of the credit line used. At September 30, 2015, we had drawn $92,502, which was reported as notes payable to bank. These notes are personally guaranteed by John C. Lawrence the Company’s President and Chairman of the Board of Directors.
At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had the following note payable to the bank:

9. Hillgrove Advances Payable
On November 7, 2014, the Company entered into a loan and processing agreement with Hillgrove Mines Pty Ltd of Australia (Hillgrove) by which Hillgrove will advance the Company funds to be used to expand its smelter in Madero, Mexico, and in Thompson Falls, Montana. The agreement states that if a stop notice is issued by Hillgrove within one year of the date of the agreement, the Company is only obligated to repay 50% of the funds advanced at that point. If a stop notice is issued between one year and two years, there is a formula to prorate the repayment amount from 50% to 81.25%. If a stop order is issued after two years, the repayment obligation is 81.25% of the funds advanced at that point. The Company has recorded the Hillgrove advances payable net of the 18.75% discount on the obligation due if Hillgrove issues a stop order after two years. As of September 30, 2015, a discount of $119,987 has been recorded as deferred revenue and is being recognized ratably over a two year period; during the nine month period ended September 30, 2015 $101,527 was recognized as income. From the date of the contract through September 30, 2015, Hillgrove has advanced the Company a total of $1,391,610, of which $1,175,751 has been recorded as a long-term liability at September 30, 2015.

11. Related Party Transactions:
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Chairman of the audit committee and compensation committee received $9,000 and $27,000, respectively, each year, for services performed.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company paid $9,443 and $28,865 in 2015, and $3,547 and $6,843 in 2014, respectively, to John Lawrence, our President and Chief Executive Officer, as reimbursement for equipment used by the Company.
12. Taxes:
The Company has sufficient net operating losses to offset the taxable income from the first nine months of 2015. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, and the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company determined that a valuation allowance equal to 100% of any deferred tax asset was appropriate, as management of the Company cannot determine that it is more likely than not the Company will realize the benefit of a net deferred tax asset. The net effect is that the deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2014, and any deferred tax assets that may have been incurred since then, are fully reserved for at September 30, 2015.
Management estimates the effective tax rate at 0% for the current year.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION, CONTINUED:
ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and FinancialCondition, continued:
The Mexico non-production costs for the nine months are primarily due to holding costs from inactivity at the Los Juarez and Wadley mines and the Puerto Blanco mill, and the loss of production at the Madero smelter from metalurgical testing and experimenting with various production methods and formulas during the first quarter of 2015. We did not report non-production costs in Mexico for the three months ended September 30, 2015, because the increased production for the quarter resulted in operating expenses that were less than the sales or transfer price of the products.

Company-Wide
For the first nine months of 2015, we realized a net income of $106,376 on sales of $9,853,127, compared to a loss of $1,341,771 in the first nine months of 2014 on sales of $8,173,914. The profit was primarily due to a negotiated adjustment of $914,967 to the Company’s cost of raw materials in the first quarter of 2015. The gain from the price adjustment has been reported as other operating income.
For the third quarter of 2015, we incurred a net loss of $135,890 on sales of $3,505,452, compared to a net loss of $559,329 in the third quarter of 2014 on sales of $2,951,457. The loss was primarily due to a decrease in the sales price of antimony from $4.72 per pound in Q3 of 2014 to $4.06 per pound in Q3 of 2015, a decrease of $0.66 per pound. The loss for the third quarter of 2015 was after depreciation and amortization of $222,375.
For the first nine months of 2015, the EBITDA was $771,151 compared to a negative EBITDA of $779,641 for the same period of 2014.
For the first nine months of 2015, the non-operating general and administrative expenses were $1,142,684 compared to $890,280 for the same period of 2014, an increase of 28.35%.
17
Antimony
Our revenues were greater than our cost of revenues in the first nine months of 2015, primarily due to a decrease in the per pound production costs for antimony. This was despite the decrease in the price of antimony metal from $4.82 during the first nine months of 2014 to $4.12 in the first nine months of 2015, a decrease of $0.70 per lb (14.5%). The price decrease for the same periods third quarter was $0.66, a decrease of nearly14%.
The amount of metal produced and sold from Mexico was approximately 346,000 pounds for the third quarter of 2015 compared to approximately 156,000 pounds produced and sold for the third quarter of 2014. The increased production from Mexico was primarily because all furnaces at Madero were processing Australian concentrates.
Approximately 1,094,000 pounds of antimony metal in concentrates were imported from Hillgrove Mines PTY during the first nine months of 2015. Approximately 720,000 pounds of Hillgrove product was processed but the Company does not realize the 9.5% fee until the inventory is sold.
During the third quarter of 2015 we sold 675,031 pounds of antimony, an increase of 145,902 pounds (27.5%) from the same period in 2014.
During the first nine months of 2015 we sold 1,869,869 pounds of antimony, an increase of 567,416 pounds (43%) from the same period in 2014.
Gross antimony revenue net of discount was $2,741,846 for Q3 2015, up $246,508 (10%) from Q3 of 2014 despite the price decrease. Gross antimony revenues for the first nine months of 2015 were $7,707,620, up $1,432,514 (23%) from the same period of 2014 despite the price decrease.
The net loss per pound of antimony for the third quarter of 2015 was $0.40 compared to a net loss of $1.07 for the same period in 2014, a decrease of 62.6%. The net loss per pound of antimony for the first nine months of 2015 was $0.09 compared to $1.17 for the same period of 2014, a decrease of 92.3%.
Our cost per pound of antimony production has fallen due to the following factors:
1.
|
An increase in production which lowers the cost per pound of fixed overhead
|
2.
|
The cost of raw materials has dropped significantly because the price is indexed to the sale price
|
3.
|
Realized savings from natural gas instead of propane in Mexico
|
4.
|
Sharply reduced propane costs in Montana
|
5.
|
Lower costs of operating in Mexico
|
6.
|
Byproduct silver and gold production
|
7.
|
The ability to ship finished metal from Mexico directly to customers
|
The largest cost savings will result when all Mexican operations are on stream. The holding costs for Los Juarez, Wadley, Guadalupe, and Soyatal have been substantial.
The antimony business will realize much higher production and potentially better operating margins as Mexican operations are brought up to capacity
The cost of Mexican production in the third quarter included all the holding costs for Los Juarez, 90% of the holding costs for the Puerto Blanco mill, and the care and maintenance costs for Wadley and Guadalupe whose product could not be smelted due to lack of furnace capacity at Madero.
For the third quarter of 2015, USAC shipped $169,087 of gold and silver compared to none for the same period of 2014. For the first nine months of 2015, USAC shipped, $365,388 worth of precious metals compared to $288,346 for the same period of 2014, an increase of 26.7%
The production of gold and silver from the Los Juarez deposit in Queretaro, Mexico is awaiting two circuit additions. The first addition is at Madero and the equipment is being built and installed. It is expected to result in high metallurgical recoveries of gold and silver from the flotation concentrates. The second addition will involve a cyanide leach circuit at the flotation mill at Puerto Blanco in Guanajuato to recover the rest of the gold and silver from the floatation tailings. The application for this permit is being worked on, and commencement of Los Juarez production could proceed during the first half of 2016. The Company does not claim any ore reserves by definition of the S.E.C. standards.
From mid- February until the present time, the 12 SRFs at Madero have been used to process Australian concentrates and almost all of our Mexican production has been put in inventory. The start up of the LRF during November will allow the Company to process some 300,000 pounds of our Mexican mine production that are in inventory and are fully paid.
18
When the LRF is on stream, it will be dedicated to Australian concentrates which we expect to increase to 200 metric tons per month or about 225,000 pounds of antimony and 110 ounces of gold. At this time, the gold will be recovered by a third party refiner, and we will receive a 9% sales commission on the recovered value after processing fees.
The LRF will replace 20 small furnaces (SRFs), cut the natural gas consumption by 50%, and cut the electric consumption by 80%. This will result in a large reduction of processing costs for the Hillgrove concentrates.
As the Mexican inventory is consumed, Mexican mine production will be increased. The resumption of processing the Mexican inventory is likely to result in decreased net income because the Mexican inventory is carried at cost, which includes some of the non-production costs incurred because we have been processing all Hillgrove concentrates since mid February.
ZEOLITE
During Q3 of 2015, BRZ sold 3,528 tons of zeolite, up 1,277 tons or 57% from the same period in 2014.
During the first nine months of 2015, BRZ sold 10,491 tons of zeolite up 2,475 tons or 31% from the same period in 2014.
During Q3 of 2015, BRZ realized net income of $132,058 compared to $6,191 for Q3 of 2014, an increase of $125,867.
Net income for the first nine months of 2015 was $267,309 compared to $178,156 for the same period of 2014, an increase of 50%.
Other Items:
1.
|
Our net income for the nine month period in 2015 was after non-cash expenses of $664,775 for depreciation and amortization.
|
2.
|
USAC’s precious metals revenue in the first nine months of 2015 was $365,388 which was equivalent to $0.196 per pound of antimony sold.
|
3.
|
During the first nine months of 2015 the direct production costs in the USA was $3,442,566 ($1.84 per pound), compared to $3,940,342 ($3.02 per pound) for the same period in the prior year, primarily due to the decrease in raw material and propane costs. The decrease in production costs has enabled us to continue operations and fund improvements in a severely depressed environment for basic materials.
|
The Mexico non-production costs were $358,865 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, compared to $599,459 for the nine months ended June 30, 2014, which, as noted above, was due to running 12 small furnaces instead of the designed Hillgrove large furnace that will do the work of 20 small furnaces at a fraction of the cost of multiple small furnaces.
USAC entered an agreement with Hillgrove Mines PTY LTD of Australia to process 200 metric tons of antimony concentrates per month containing 60% antimony and 20 grams of gold (0.64 oz) through a new plant in Mexico that we would build and dedicate to Hillgrove. On an annual basis, this would amount to 3,000,000 pounds of antimony and 1,500 ounces of gold. Before the plant was finished, Hillgrove had shipped 682 tons of concentrates. We used all of our furnaces in Mexico and 30-40% of the furnace capacity in Montana to process the Hillgrove concentrate. As a result, the Mexican production was up significantly, and the company-wide inventory of work in progress was 783,749 pounds of antimony at a value of $2,178,327.
As noted above, the Hillgrove concentrate contains approximately 20 grams (0.64 oz) of gold per ton. This gold remains in the slag left from processing the concentrate. We are researching avenues to find an outside refiner to process the slag and isolate the gold. Hillgrove would be paid for the gold recovered, less a processing fee. We would receive a 9.5% commission for the sale of the gold.
19
Los Juarez
USAC’ Los Juarez property in Queretaro, Mexico exposes mineralization for approximately 3.5 kilometers and for widths up to 1 kilometer. Previously, the deposit had been reported as a layered deposit (manto) up to 6 meters thick with silver and antimony. The property has been abandoned by major mining companies unable to solve the metallurgical problems. After 11 years and many millions of dollars, USAC has reported that:
1.
|
The property is predominantly a gold property with substantial credits in silver and minor credits in antimony
|
2.
|
The property is not a manto deposit but a series of deep- seated silica- rich pipes that carry the mineralization vertically for many meters
|
3.
|
The Company has pilot tested every aspect of the project including the mining, milling, and smelting, and believes it has solved the metallurgical problems. The Company will bring its Puerto Blanco150 ton per day pilot mill on stream after permitting a cyanide leach plant at Puerto Blanco and other equipment at its Madero smelter
|
A shallow reconnaissance drilling program to delineate the higher grade zones for mining to provide raw material to the Puerto Blanco pilot mill in Guanajuato, Mexico and to direct the deeper drilling of the deposit in the future was completed in the first nine months of 2015. To date, less than 5% of the property has been drilled. Eighty one holes were drilled, and with the exception of 5 holes that were drilled to 3-5 meters, the holes were drilled to a total depth of 0.8-2 meters. Six of the drill holes were in mine pit areas, and the balance of the holes were all in unexplored areas over a distance of 1,600 meters. Most of the holes showed anomalous values of gold, silver, or antimony, or two or three of these metals in combination. Following are some of the assays from the drill hole intercepts (values are per metric ton):

These assays were reported by American Analytical Services of Osburn, Idaho and have been confirmed by ALS Minerals of Reno, Nevada and the Norris Lab of Norris, Montana. The initial drilling has identified mine areas and other areas with high grade mineralization. We claim no reserves per SEC definitions, and the drilling does not comply with NI 43-101.

Our general and administrative costs and professional fees were $380,564 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $271,745 for the same period of the prior year, an increase of $108,819 (39.6%). Management is seeking ways to bring these costs down.

Our net working capital increased by approximately $632,000 from December 31, 2014. Our cash increased by approximately $80,000 during the same period. The increase in our net working capital was primarily due to approximately a $915,000 reduction of our liability for raw material, an increase of approximately $252,000 for prepaid costs associated with processing the Hillgrove concentrate, and approximately an $777,000 increase in our inventory. An increase in accounts payable and accrued payroll liabilities of approximately $1,110,000, and approximately $1,350,000 cash paid for capital items decreased our working capital. We have estimated commitments for construction and improvements, including $500M to finish building and installing the Hillgrove furnaces and equipment at Madero, Mexico, of approximately $600M over the next twelve months. The cash for the Hillgrove capital improvements will come from the expected refund of approximately $252,000 IVA taxes presently deposited with the Mexican tax authorities, and from our internally generated sources. We believe that with our current cash balance, along with the future cash flow from operations, we have adequate liquid assets to meet these commitments and service our debt for the next twelve months. We have lines of credit of $202,000 which have been drawn down by $92,502 at September 30, 2015.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
We sell our antimony products based on a world market price, and we buy a majority of our raw material based on the same market prices. Analysis of our costs indicate that, for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, raw materials were approximately 50% of our cost of goods sold. Most of our production costs are fixed in nature, and could not be decreased readily without decreasing our production. During the quarter ending September 30, 2015, a $1 per pound decrease in our sales price would have likely caused our gross profit to decrease $0.50 per pound.
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 reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our chief financial officer conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of September 30, 2015. It was determined that there were material weaknesses affecting our disclosure controls and procedures and, as a result of those weaknesses, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2015. These material weaknesses are as follows:
●
|
The Company lacks proper segregation of duties. As with any company the size of ours, this lack of segregation of duties is due to limited resources. The president authorizes the majority of the expenditures and signs checks.
|
●
|
During our year-end audit, our independent registered accountants discovered material misstatements in our financial statements that required audit adjustments.
|
MANAGEMENT'S REMEDIATION INITIATIVES
We are aware of these material weaknesses and have procedures to ensure that independent review of material transactions is performed. We have internal control measures to mitigate the lack of segregation of duties as follows:
●
|
The CFO reviews all bank reconciliations
|
●
|
The CFO reviews all material transactions for capital expenditures
|
●
|
The CFO reviews all period ending entries for preparation of financial statements, including the calculation of inventory, depreciation, and amortization
|
●
|
The CFO review all material entries for compliance with generally accepted accounting principles prior to the annual audit and 10Q filings
|
●
|
The Company has a formal capitalization policy
|
●
|
In addition, we consult with independent experts when complex transactions are entered into.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
There were no significant changes made to internal controls for the quarter ended September 30, 2015.
