US NUCLEAR CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2020 AND 2019
(unaudited)

 

Note 1 - Organization

 

Organization and Line of Business

 

US Nuclear Corp., formerly known as APEX 3, Inc., (the “Company” or “US Nuclear”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on February 14, 2012.

 

On May 31, 2016, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Electronic Control Concepts (“ECC”) whereby the Company purchased certain tangible and intangible assets of ECC.

 

The Company is engaged in developing, manufacturing and selling radiation detection and measuring equipment. The Company markets and sells its products to consumers throughout the world.

 

Note 2 – Basis Presentation

 

Interim financial statements

 

The unaudited interim financial statements included herein, presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and stated in US dollars, have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosure are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

 

These statements reflect all adjustment, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. It is suggested that these interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2019 and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed on July 2, 2020. The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim report. Results of operations for the interim period are not indicative of annual results.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Optron and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Overhoff Technology Corporation (“Overhoff”), and have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. It is possible that accounting estimates and assumptions may be material to the Company due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment involved.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less. There were no cash equivalents as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Concentration of credit risk

 

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash with high quality financial institutions and at times may exceed the FDIC insurance limit. The Company has not and does not anticipate incurring any losses related to this credit risk.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses for accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Reserves are recorded based on the Company’s historical collection history. Allowance for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were $5,000 and $5,000, respectively.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (determined primarily by the average cost method) or net realizable value. Management compares the cost of inventories with the net realizable value and allowance is made for writing down their inventories to net realizable value, if lower. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there was no allowance for slow moving or obsolete inventory. The Company periodically assessed its inventory for slow moving and/or obsolete items. If any are identified an appropriate allowance for those items is made and/or the items are deemed to be impaired.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and Equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred; additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized. When equipment is retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation of equipment is provided using the straight-line method for substantially all assets with estimated lives as follows:

 

Furniture and fixtures 5 years
Leasehold improvement Lesser of lease life or economic life
Equipment 5 years
Computers and software 5 years

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company applies the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment , which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. ASC 360 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair values are reduced for the cost of disposal. Based on its review at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company believes there was no impairment of its long-lived assets.

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the underlying net assets of businesses acquired. The entire goodwill balance in the accompanying financial statements resulted from the Company’s acquisition of Overhoff Technology Corporation in 2006. The Company complies with ASC 350, Goodwill and Other Indefinite Lived Intangible Assets , requiring that a test for impairment be performed at least annually. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 the Company performed the required impairment analysis which resulted in no impairment adjustments.

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company evaluates all of its agreements to determine if such instruments have derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a weighted-average Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company’s only derivative financial instruments were an embedded conversion feature associated with convertible notes payable due to certain provisions that allow for a change in the conversion price based on a percentage of the Company’s stock price at the date of conversion.

 

Investments

 

The Company accounts for investments in equity securities without a readily determinable fair value at cost, minus impairment. If the Company identifies observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer, the Company measures the equity security at fair value as of the date that the observable transaction occurred (“the measurement alternative”) in accordance with ASC 321. The Company accounts for investments for which it owns 20% or more, but less than 50% on the equity method in accordance with ASC 323.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, customer deposits, and line of credit, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. In addition, the Company has a note payable to shareholder that the carrying amount also approximates fair value.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”), became effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. The Company’s revenue recognition disclosure reflects its updated accounting policies that are affected by this new standard. The Company applied the “modified retrospective” transition method for open contracts for the implementation of Topic 606. As sales are and have been primarily from the sale of products to customers, and the Company has no significant post-delivery obligations, this new standard did not result in a material recognition of revenue on the Company’s accompanying consolidated financial statements for the cumulative impact of applying this new standard. The Company made no adjustments to its previously reported total revenues, as those periods continue to be presented in accordance with its historical accounting practices under Topic 605, Revenue Recognition .

 

Revenue from the product sales are recognized under Topic 606 in a manner that reasonably reflects the delivery of its products to customers in return for expected consideration and includes the following elements:

 

  executed contracts with the Company’s customers that it believes are legally enforceable;

 

  identification of performance obligations in the respective contract;

 

  determination of the transaction price for each performance obligation in the respective contract;

 

  allocation the transaction price to each performance obligation; and

 

  recognition of revenue only when the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

These five elements, as applied to each of the Company’s revenue category, is summarized below:

 

  Product sales - revenue is recognized when the Company performs its obligations under the contracts it has with its customers to deliver products at an agreed upon price and it is generally when the control of the product has been transferred to the customer.

 

Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as customer deposits.

 

Sales returns and allowances was $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. The Company provides a one-year warranty on all sales. Warranty expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was insignificant. The Company does not provide unconditional right of return, price protection or any other concessions to its customers.

 

See Notes 13 and 14 for disclosures of revenue disaggregated by geographical area and product line.

 

Customer Deposits

 

Customer deposits represent cash paid to the Company by customers before the product has been completed and shipped.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes . ASC 740 requires a company to use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of, the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

 

Under ASC 740, a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The adoption had no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, “ Compensation – Stock Compensation .” FASB ASC Topic 718 requires companies to measure compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation at fair value at the grant date and recognize the expense over the employee’s requisite service period. The Company recognizes in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees and non-employees.

 

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

 

Earnings per share is calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS assumes that all dilutive convertible shares and stock warrants were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 there were 333,333 and 333,333 warrants outstanding, respectively, to purchase shares of common stock and the Company had an outstanding convertible debenture that is convertible into 1,302,083 and 892,857 shares of common stock, respectively. Basic and diluted earnings per share are the same during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 due to the net loss incurred.

Segment Reporting

 

FASB ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting , requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. The Company determined it has two reportable segments. See Note 13.

 

Related Parties

 

The Company accounts for related party transactions in accordance with ASC 850, Related Party Disclosures . A party is considered to be related to the Company if the party directly or indirectly or through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. A party which can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or if it has an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests is also a related party.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior period amounts were reclassified to conform to the manner of presentation in the current period. These reclassifications had no effect on the net loss or stockholders’ equity.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and requires expanded disclosures about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2016-02 and additional ASUs are now codified as Accounting Standards Codification Standard (“ASC”) 842 - Leases (“ASC 842”). ASC 842 supersedes the lease accounting guidance in ASC 840 Leases, and requires lessees to recognize a lease liability and a corresponding lease asset for virtually all lease contracts. It also requires additional disclosures about leasing arrangements. The Company adopted ASC 842 on January 1, 2019 and used the modified retrospective transition approach and did not restate its comparative periods. As of the date of implementation on January 1, 2019, the impact of the adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the recognition of a right of use asset and lease payable obligation on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets of $356,508. As the right of use asset and the lease payable obligation were the same upon adoption of ASC 842, there was no cumulative effect impact on the Company’s accumulated deficit.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 was issued to improve financial reporting by requiring earlier recognition of credit losses on financing receivables and other financial assets in scope. The new standard represents significant changes to accounting for credit losses. Full lifetime expected credit losses will be recognized upon initial recognition of an asset in scope. The current incurred loss impairment model that recognizes losses when a probable threshold is met will be replaced with the expected credit loss impairment method without recognition threshold. The expected credit losses estimate will be based upon historical information, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This ASU as amended by ASU 2019-10, is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes which amends ASC 740 Income Taxes (ASC 740). This update is intended to simplify accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 and amending existing guidance to improve consistent application of ASC 740. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The guidance in this update has various elements, some of which are applied on a prospective basis and others on a retrospective basis with earlier application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)—Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. ASU 2020-06 reduces the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. For convertible instruments with conversion features that are not required to be accounted for as derivatives under Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, or that do not result in substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital, the embedded conversion features no longer are separated from the host contract. ASU 2020-06 also removes certain conditions that should be considered in the derivatives scope exception evaluation under Subtopic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, and clarify the scope and certain requirements under Subtopic 815-40. In addition, ASU 2020-06 improves the guidance related to the disclosures and earnings-per-share (EPS) for convertible instruments and contract in entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 is effective for public business entities that meet the definition of a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filer, excluding entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Board specified that an entity should adopt the guidance as of the beginning of its annual fiscal year. The Company is currently evaluation the impact this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 5 – Investment

 

On August 3, 2018, the Company closed an agreement by and among, MIFTEC Laboratories, Inc. (“MIFTEC”), a licensee of Magneto-Inertial Fusion Technologies, Inc., (“MIFTI”), and the Company. MIFTEC is a licensee of MIFTI radionuclide technology. MIFTEC will engage the Company to manufacture equipment pursuant to MIFTEC’s specifications and designs and have the Company as a sales representative for the manufactured equipment. The Company will be the exclusive manufacturer and supplier to MIFTEC of equipment in North America and Asia. In addition, the Company received a 10% ownership interest in MIFTEC. The consideration for the exclusive manufacturing rights and a 10% ownership interest in MIFTEC was $500,000 and 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $594,000. The fair value was determined based on the Company’s stock price on August 3, 2018. The Company recorded the value of the 10% interest in MIFTEC at $10,000 and recorded $1,084,000 as the acquisition of manufacturing and supply rights in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations during the year ended December 31, 2018. The Company evaluated this investment for impairment and determined that an impairment of $9,000 was necessary during the year ended December 31, 2019. The carrying value of this investment at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $1,000 and $1,000, respectively.

 

In April 2019, the Company also entered into a Cooperative Agreement with MIFTI whereby the Company acquired certain exclusive manufacturing and supply rights, including thermonuclear fusion-powered reactor for production of electricity per MIFTI designs in return for $500,000, of which $100,000 is payable upon signing, $200,000 within four months of the agreement and $200,000 within nine months of the agreement. The $500,000 is an option to buy a 10% interest in MIFTI for $2,700,000, if completed with 24 months of the agreement date. If the options expires, MIFTI shall issue the Company 500,000 shares of common stock and rescind all other exclusive rights contained in the agreement. The option was rescinded and the Company received 500,000 shares of MIFTI common stock which represents an ownership of approximately 0.56% for its $500,000 investment. The Company evaluated this investment for impairment and determined that an impairment of $499,000 was necessary during the year ended December 31, 2019. The carrying value of this investment at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $1,000 and $1,000, respectively.

The following is a roll-forward of the Company’s convertible debentures and related discounts:

 

   Principal   Debt     
   Balance   Discount   Total 
Balance, December 31, 2019  $500,000   $(462,963)  $37,037 
Conversion to common stock   (125,000)   -    (125,000)

Balance, September 30, 2020  $375,000   $(135,802)  $239,198 

 

In connection with the above mention convertible debenture, the Company also issued 333,333 warrants to the investor. The warrants have an exercise price of $1.50 per share and expire three year after issuance. The Company allocated the principal balance of the investment of $500,000 between the relative fair value of the convertible debenture and the warrants of $323,616 and $176,384, respectively. As a result of the allocation of a portion of the principal amount of the convertible debenture and the derivative liability associated with the variable conversion feature, the Company recognized a loss on the issuance of the convertible debenture of $183,978.

 

Note 8 – Derivative Liability

 

The Company determined that the conversion features of the convertible debentures represented embedded derivatives since the notes are convertible into a variable number of shares upon conversion. Accordingly, the notes are not considered to be conventional debt and the embedded conversion feature is bifurcated from the debt host and accounted for as a derivative liability. Accordingly, the fair value of these derivative instruments is recorded as liabilities on the balance sheet with the corresponding amount recorded as a discount to each note, with any excess of the fair value of the derivative component over the face amount of the note recorded as an expense on the issue date. Such discounts are amortized from the date of issuance to the maturity dates of the notes. The change in the fair value of the derivative liabilities are recorded in other income or expenses in the statements of operations at the end of each period, with the offset to the derivative liabilities on the balance sheet.

 

The Company uses the Black-Scholes and Binomial option pricing model with the following assumptions to measure the fair value of derivative liability at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

 

   September 30,   December 31, 
   2020   2019 
Risk free rate   0.11%   1.59%
Volatility   83.69%   166%
Terms (years)   0.48    1.23 
Dividend rate   0%   0%

 

The following table represents the Company’s derivative liability activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2020:

 

Derivative liability balance, December 31, 2019  $418,781 
Relief of derivative liability   (190,409)
Change in derivative liability during the period   (76,774)
Derivative liability balance, September 30, 2020  $151,598 

 

Note 9 – Note Payable to Shareholder

 

Robert Goldstein, the CEO and majority shareholder, has loaned funds to the Company from time to time to cover general operating expenses. These loans are evidenced by unsecured, non-interest bearing notes due on December 31, 2021.

Note 10 – Line of Credit

 

As of September 30, 2020, the Company had four lines of credit with a maximum borrowing amount of $400,000 with interest ranging from 5.5% to 11.5% and are unsecured. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the amounts outstanding under these lines of credit were $210,128 and $215,266, respectively.

 

Note 11 – Leases

 

The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract and whether that lease meets the classification criteria of a finance or operating lease. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of the Company’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company must discount lease payments based on an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate which is based on the interest rate of similar debt outstanding.

 

The Company leases its current facilities from Gold Team Inc., a company owned by the Company’s CEO, which owns both the Canoga Park, CA and Milford, Ohio locations. The leases expired on April 30, 2020 and the Company exercised its renewal option for an additional 12 months. Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the provision of ASC 842 Leases.

 

The table below presents the lease related assets and liabilities recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

Note 17 -- Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company follows a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to measurements involving unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 


Level 1 inputs - observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

Level 2 inputs - other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

 

Level 3 inputs - unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

 

The Company categorizes its fair value measurements within the hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The following table presents the amount and level in the fair value hierarchy of each of its assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The contingent liability is for the earn-out related to the purchase of Electronic Control Concepts.

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

 

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand US Nuclear Corp, our operations and our present business environment. MD&A is provided as a supplement to—and should be read in conjunction with—our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The audited financial statements for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on Form 10-K on July 2, 2020 should be read in conjunction with the discussion below. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments necessary to present fairly the results of operations for such periods have been included in these unaudited financial statements.

 

We were incorporated in Delaware on February 14, 2012, and on March 2, 2012, we filed a registration statement on Form 10 to register with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as a public company. We were originally organized as a vehicle to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation.

 

Since our acquisition of Overhoff Technology in 2006, we have had discussions with other companies in our industry for an acquisition. While we targeted Overhoff due to its unique position in the tritium market, we had not commenced an acquisition since our Overhoff Technology acquisition; we believe in part the reason was due to lack of additional capital, our status as a privately-held entity at the time, and focus on developing our own products. We will seek out companies whom our management believes will provide value to our customers and will complement our business. We will focus on diversifying our product line into a larger range so that our customers and vendors may have a more expansive experience in type, choice, options, price and selection. We also believe that with a more diverse product line we will become more competitive as our industry is intensely competitive.

 

Our international revenues were 23.1% of our total revenue in 2020. We expect this to increase over time as we continue to field new orders inquires and engage new customers overseas. We believe that Korea and China will likely be a larger contributor to revenue within the next few years. While we maintain steady growth domestically, the international side of our business may be a larger component as nuclear technology and rapid development for clean energy grows abroad. Additionally, the Company relies on continued growth and orders from CANDU reactors (Canada Deuterium Uranium), and rapid development of the next generation of nuclear reactors called Molten Salt Reactors, (MSR) and Liquid-Fluoride Thorium Reactors (LFTR), all of which purchase tritium detection and monitor products. There can be no assurances as to our growth projections and our risk profile as we depend upon increased foreign customers for business.

 

For the next twelve months, we anticipate we will need approximately $5,000,000 in additional capital to fund our business plans. If we do not raise the required capital we may not meet our expenses and there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so and if we do, we may find the cost of such financing to be burdensome on the Company. Additionally, we may not be able to execute on our business plans due to unforeseen market forces such as lower natural gas prices, difficulty attracting qualified executive staff, general downturn in our sector or by competition as we operate in an extremely competitive market for all of our product offerings.

 

Robert I. Goldstein, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors also maintains a position as President of Gold Team Inc., a Delaware company that invests in industrial real estate properties for investment purposes. He holds an 8% interest in Gold Team Inc. and spends approximately 5 hours per week with affairs related to Gold Team Inc. The Company leases its current facilities from Gold Team Inc. which owns both the Canoga Park, CA and Milford, Ohio properties at an expense of $7,000 for each facility per month.

 

On February 5, 2020, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) with Grapheton, Inc., a California corporation (“Grapheton”). The transaction was closed on March 12, 2020. Grapheton is a start-up company that focuses on building energy storage devises, known as supercapacitors, from a new material system. The technology utilized by Grapheton has been proven to provide a compelling advantage in microelectrode arrays with superior electrical and electrochemical properties.

 

20 

 

 

Pursuant to the terms of the SPA, the Corporation will acquire a total of 2,552 shares of Grapheton’s common stock over a two year period. At closing, the Company was issued at total of 1,452 shares of Grapheton’s common stock for $235,000 and 858,896 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $601,227.

 

On the one-year anniversary of the closing of the SPA, the Company shall receive an additional 1,100 shares of Grapheton’s common stock in exchange for shares of the Company’s common stock in an amount equal to $707,777, as valued by an independent third-party valuator.

 

An additional “true up” issuance of the Company’s common stock to Grapheton may be made on the second anniversary of the closing of the SPA, based on the valuation of the Company’s common stock on that date by a third-party valuator

 

Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19)

 

While we are still operating, our business has been and will continue to be adversely impacted by the effects of the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19). In addition to global macroeconomic effects, the COVID-19 outbreak and any other related adverse public health developments will cause disruption to our operations and sales activities. Our third-party manufacturers, suppliers, third-party distributors, sub-contractors and customers have been and will be disrupted by worker absenteeism, quarantines and restrictions on our employees’ ability to work, office and factory closures, disruptions to ports and other shipping infrastructure, border closures, or other travel or health-related restrictions. Depending on the magnitude of such effects on our manufacturing, assembling, and testing activities or the operations of our suppliers, third-party distributors, or sub-contractors, our supply chain, manufacturing and product shipments will be delayed, which could adversely affect our business, operations and customer relationships. In addition, COVID-19 or other disease outbreak will in the short-run and may over the longer term adversely affect the economies and financial markets of many countries, resulting in an economic downturn that will affect demand for our products and impact our operating results. There can be no assurance that any decrease in sales resulting from COVID-19 will be offset by increased sales in subsequent periods. Although the magnitude of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on our business and operations remains uncertain, the continued spread of COVID-19 or the occurrence of other epidemics and the imposition of related public health measures and travel and business restrictions will adversely impact our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows. In addition, we have experienced and will experience disruptions to our business operations resulting from quarantines, self-isolations, or other movement and restrictions on the ability of our employees to perform their jobs that may impact our ability to develop and design our products in a timely manner or meet required milestones or customer commitments.

Sales for the three months ended September 30, 2020 were $484,318 compared to $659,325 for the same period in 2019. The decrease of $175,007 or 26.5% is a result of a decrease in sales from both our Overhoff and Optron subsidiaries of $130,882 and $44,125, respectively. The decrease in sales is principally due to the impact of COVID-19 had on our company and on our customers. The sales breakdown for the three months ended September 30, 2020 is as follows:

 

 

North America  70.5%
Middle East  0%
Asia (Including Japan)  29.5%
South America  0%
Other  0%

  

Our gross margins for the three months ended September 30, 2020 were 41.8% as compared to 48.9% for the same period in 2019. The decrease in gross margin is due to overhead allocations.

 

Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2020 were $1,021,507 compared to $1,729,246 for the same period in 2019. The decrease of $707,739 or 40.9% was due to lower stock-based compensation in 2020. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, stock-based compensation was $542,560 compared to $1,150,321 during the same period in 2019.

 

Other expense for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $31,389, an increase of $28,286 from $3,103 for the same period in 2019. The increase was due to the amortization of the debt discount associated with the convertible debenture; offset by the change in value of the derivative liability.

 

Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $850,386 compared to $1,409,906 for the same period in 2019. The change was principally attributed to the factors described above.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019:

Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were $1,108,758 compared to $2,818,901 for the same period in 2019. The decrease of $1,710,143 or 60.7% is a result of a decrease in sales from both our Overhoff and Optron subsidiaries of $780,049 and $930,094, respectively. The decrease in sales is principally due to the impact of COVID-19 had on our company and on our customers. The sales breakdown for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 is as follows:

 

North America  74.1%
Middle East  0%
Asia (Including Japan)  22.4%

Our gross margins for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were 46.2% as compared to 50.6% for the same period in 2019. The decrease in gross margin is due to overhead allocations.

 

Selling, general and administrative expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were $2,262,552 compared to $3,474,788 for the same period in 2019. The decrease of $1,212,236 or 34.9% was due to lower stock-based compensation in 2020. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, stock-based compensation was $995,656 compared to $2,073,019 during the same period in 2019.

 

Other expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $292,536, an increase of $277,687 from $14,849 for the same period in 2019. The increase was due to the amortization of the debt discount associated with the convertible debenture; offset by the change in derivative liability.

 

Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $2,042,872 compared to $2,063,344 for the same period in 2019. The change was principally attributed to the factors described above.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our operations have historically been financed by our majority shareholder and more recently from proceeds from the sale of our common stock. As funds were needed for working capital purposes, our majority shareholder would loan us the needed funds. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, our majority shareholder loaned the Company an additional $520,600 and paid expenses on the Company’s behalf of $40,000. We also repaid our majority shareholder $616,801 of amount previously advanced to the Company. We anticipate funding the growth of our business through the sales of additional shares of our common stock and loans from our majority stockholder if necessary.

 

At September 30, 2020, total assets increased by 5.0% to $3,716,884 from $3,541,036 at December 31, 2019 principally related to an increase in investments and inventory offset by a decrease in cash and accounts receivable.

 

At September 30, 2020, total liabilities increased by 15.3% to $2,123,059 from $1,840,872 at December 31, 2019. The increase is principally related to an increase in convertible notes and notes payable, offset by a decrease in accrued liabilities, note payable to stockholder and derivative liability.

 

Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $366,405 compared to cash provided by operating activities of $92,007 for the same period in 2019. The change in cash from operations was principally due to changes in working capital accounts, principally inventory, accounts receivable and customer deposit.

 

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $235,000 compared to $300,000 for the same period in 2019. The decrease in cash used in investing activities was principally due to the investment in Grapheton of $235,000 in 2020 compared to an acquisition deposit of $300,000 in 2019.

 

Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $2,243 compared to cash provided by financing activities of $290,406 for the same period in 2019. The change in cash from financing activities was principally the issuance of a $107,587 note payable and the net repayment of note payable to stockholder of $96,201in 2020 compared to the issuance of common stock for $325,000 in 2019.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”). US GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.

 

23 

 

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires a company to use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of, the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

 

Under ASC 740, a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The adoption had no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

We believe the following is among the most critical accounting policies that impact our consolidated financial statements. We suggest that our significant accounting policies, as described in our financial statements in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, be read in conjunction with this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act. As a result, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements. For so long as we are an emerging growth company, we will not be required to:

 

have an auditor report on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;

 

comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (i.e., an auditor discussion and analysis);

 

submit certain executive compensation matters to shareholder advisory votes, such as “say-on-pay” and “say-on-frequency;” and

 

disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO’s compensation to median employee compensation.

 

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Our financial statements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

 

We will remain an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which would occur if the market value of our ordinary shares that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.

 

As an emerging growth company, the company is exempt from Section 14A and B of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which require the shareholder approval of executive compensation and golden parachutes.

The Company is an Emerging Growth Company under the JOBS Act of 2012, but the Company has irrevocably opted out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards pursuant to Section 107(B) of the JOBS Act.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, we are responsible for conducting an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our internal controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this report. Disclosure controls and procedures means that the material information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms relating to our company, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the evaluation date that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2020.

 

Changes in internal controls

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, performed an evaluation to determine whether any change in our internal controls over financial reporting occurred during the three-month period ended September 30, 2020. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that no change occurred in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
