NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements are presented in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) 915 for development stage entities. The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012.
Comprehensive Income
The Company follows FASB ASC 220 in reporting comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income. Since the Company has no items of other comprehensive loss, comprehensive loss is equal to net loss.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and notes payable. The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses because of their short maturities. The Company believes the carrying amount of its notes payable and convertible debt approximates its fair value based on rates and other terms currently available to the Company for similar debt instruments. The Company classifies the fair value of its notes payable and convertible debt within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy based on observable inputs used to estimate fair value.
Loss Per Share
The Company follows FASB ASC 260 when reporting Earnings Per Share resulting in the presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Because the Company reported a net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, common stock equivalents, including convertible debt, stock options and warrants were anti-dilutive; therefore, the amounts reported for basic and dilutive loss per share were the same.
Segment Information
The Company is organized and operates as one operating segment wherein the Company’s patented technologies are utilized to address counterfeiting issues primarily in the gaming industry. In accordance with FASB ASC 280, Segment Reporting, the chief operating decision-maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. Since the Company operates in one segment and provides one group of similar products, all financial segment and product line information required by FASB ASC 280 can be found in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04 (“ASC Update 2011-04”), Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS. This ASU is intended to update the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in US GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements. Some of the amendments clarify the Board’s intent about application of existing fair value measurement requirements, while others change a particular principle or requirement for measuring or disclosing fair value measurement information. The amendments in this update are for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted the provisions of this ASU, and the required changes in presentation and disclosure requirements have been included in the June 30, 2012 financial statements. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
As of June 30, 2012, there are no recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted which would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred significant losses and experienced negative cash flow during the development stage. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Since inception, the Company has focused on developing and implementing our business plan. The Company has not recently paid salaries to management and is utilizing subcontractors on a work for hire basis to continue the operations of the Company. The Company believes that its existing cash resources will not be sufficient to sustain operations during the next twelve months. The Company intends to raise funds through the sale of debt and equity securities. The issuance of additional equity would result in dilution to the existing shareholders. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funds when they are needed or if such funds cannot be obtained on terms acceptable to the Company, the Company may be unable to execute upon the business plan or pay costs and expenses as they are incurred, which could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations.
Even if the Company is successful in raising sufficient capital to complete the development of its products, the Company’s ability to continue in business as a viable going concern can only be achieved when revenues reach a level that sustains business operations. If sufficient funding cannot be obtained in the short term, the Company will need to reduce monthly expenditures to a level that will enable the Company to continue until such funds can be obtained.
The Company is in the development stage at June 30, 2012. Successful completion of the Company’s development program and, ultimately the attainment of profitable operations are dependent upon future events, including obtaining adequate financing to fulfill its development activities and achieving a level of sales adequate to support the Company’s cost structure. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to secure additional debt financing or equity investment or achieve an adequate sales level.

NOTE 3 – PATENTS
The Company has five issued patents for anti-counterfeiting technology. Accordingly, costs associated with the registration of these patents and legal defense have been capitalized and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated lives of the patents (17 years). Amortization expense for patents was $2,792 and $5,560 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. Amortization expense for patents was $2,715 and $5,431 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. Future estimated annual amortization for the remaining six months ending December 31, 2012 is $6,000. Future estimated annual amortization over the next five years is approximately $11,000 per year for the years ending December 31, 2013 through 2017.
NOTE 4 - SENIOR SECURED CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE
In February 2006, the Company commenced a private placement of up to $800,000 principal amount of 10% senior secured convertible promissory notes due twelve months from the date of issue to certain Company shareholders and other accredited investors. As of December 31, 2006, the Company completed this private placement by selling all notes payable totaling $800,000. The notes are secured by a first priority lien on all of the tangible and intangible personal property of the Company. In May 2007, the due date of these notes was extended to August 2008 and the interest rate increased to 12% annum during the extension period. In June 2011, the due date of $90,000 of the notes was extended to September 2013, $95,000 of the notes was extended to September 2014 and the due date of $596,500 of the notes was extended to September 2015. The interest rate associated $762,500 of the extended notes in June 2011 is 10% per annum, while the remaining $19,000 is at 12% per annum. As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the outstanding principal balance on these notes was $781,500. Accrued interest at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 amounted to $560,930 and $521,665, respectively. Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was $19,633 and $39,266, respectively. Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was $24,000 and $48,000, respectively.
Purchasers of the notes were issued 8,000,000 10-year warrants exercisable into the Company’s shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The warrants were valued at $392,376 and recorded as a debt discount on the notes payable. The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the grant-date fair value of the warrants, with the following assumptions: no dividend yield, expected volatility of 169% and 284%, risk-free interest rate between 3.6% and 4.5% and expected warrant life of ten years. The deferred finance charges were amortized over one year, which was the original term of the notes. As of June 30, 2012, the Company has received $70,000 for the exercise of 7,000,000 of the warrants.
In addition, if an equity financing with total proceeds of more than $5,000,000 occurs while any notes are outstanding, holders of notes will have the right, at their option, to convert the outstanding principal and interest of the notes into shares at a discount of 30% of the price per share in the qualified financing. Since the embedded conversion feature is contingent upon the occurrence of the qualified financing, the value of the contingent conversion feature, if beneficial, will be recognized when the triggering event occurs and the contingency is resolved.

NOTE 5 - CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE
During 2007, the Company commenced a private placement of up to $400,000 principal amount of 10% Convertible Promissory Notes originally due in August 2008 (the “Notes”). The Company raised $375,000 under this private placement in 2007 and the remaining $25,000 was raised in 2008. Holders of Notes will have the right, at their option, to convert the outstanding principal and interest of the Notes into shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock at any time and from time to time at the option of the holder at the initial conversion price of $0.005333 per share. The Notes are unsecured.
In June 2011, the noteholder of the $140,000 under this convertible note issue agreed to extend the maturity date of these notes to September 30, 2015 at an interest rate of 10% per annum. Additionally, the noteholder agreed in writing to suspend its right to convert its notes until such time as the Company’s authorized shares have been increased. Remaining shares to be potentially issued under this convertible note issue are 26,250,000.
As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the remaining principal balance on the notes was $140,000. Accrued interest at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 amounted to $71,750 and $64,750, respectively. Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $3,500 and $7,000 for both periods, respectively.

NOTE 6 – NOTES PAYABLE (Continued)
At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, accrued interest on notes payable was $457,398 and $362,806. Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 was $51,567 and $94,592, respectively. Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was $41,942 and $86,592, respectively.
Private Placement of 8% Series A Notes Payable
In August 2009, the Company commenced a private placement of up to $300,000 consisting of up to six units. Each unit consists of a $50,000, 8% Series A Note Payable, due September 30, 2011, and a non-detachable warrant to purchase two million shares of the Company’s common stock. During 2009, the Company sold four units, issued $200,000 of 8% Series A Notes Payable, issued eight million warrants, and raised $180,000, net of commission of $20,000. In January 2010, the Company sold 0.5 units, issued $25,000 of 8% Series A Notes Payable, issued one million warrants, and raised $17,500 net of commissions of $7,500. The commissions were treated as deferred finance charges and are expensed over the term of notes payable. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, amortization of deferred finance charges was $7,682 and $15,724, respectively. No amortization was recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, since the deferred finance charges were fully amortized as of December 31, 2011.
In June 2011, the maturity date on the $150,000 of the 8% Series A Notes Payable and the term on the associated six million warrants were extended to September 30, 2015. As a result, the warrants were revalued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the incremental fair-value of the warrants of $21,275, with the following assumptions: no dividend yield, expected volatility of 60%, risk free interest rate of 1.52% and warrant life of approximately 1.25 years. As part of the debt extension, the lender holding the six million warrants agreed in writing to suspend its right to exercise these warrants until such time that the Company’s authorized shares have been increased.
The relative fair value of the warrants issued in conjunction with the 8% Series A Notes Payable have been treated as a debt discount with an offsetting credit to additional paid-in capital. The debt discount related to the warrant issuances are being accreted to interest expense over the term of the notes. When the warrants were revalued the incremental amount of $21,275 was also treated as additional debt discount and is being accreted over the new term of the 8% Series A Notes Payable. As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the unaccreted debt discount related to warrants issued in conjunction with the 8% Series A Notes payable was $16,111 and $18,589, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, interest expense from the accretion of the debt discount was $1,239 and 2,478, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, interest expense from the accretion of the debt discount was $4,910 and $9,820, respectively.

NOTE 6 – NOTES PAYABLE (Continued)
Private Placement of 25% Notes Payable
In 2010, the Company issued $400,000 in notes payable in order to finance a patent infringement lawsuit (see Note 10 - Contingencies to these condensed consolidated financial statements). The notes payable accrue interest at 25% per annum and mature upon the earlier of September 1, 2013 or the date on which the Company receives net proceeds from the patent infringement claim. In addition to the base interest of 25% per annum, the lenders are entitled to Bonus Interest equal to the following:
a. | First monies realized by the Company from its share of the net proceeds of the lawsuit shall be allocated and paid to the Lender until the principal and base interest accruing has been fully paid. |
b. | The next monies from the net proceeds of the litigation settlement will be paid to the Company to reimburse for out-of-pocket legal costs related to the lawsuit. |
c. | The next $825,000 of proceeds will be split 50%/50% between the Company and the Lenders. |
d. | The next $1 million realized by the Company shall be allocated 90% to the Company and 10% to the Lenders. |
e. | The next $1 million realized by Company shall be allocated 85% to Company and 15% to Lenders. |
f. | All remaining proceeds realized by Company shall be allocated 80% to Company and 20% to Lenders. |
The Lenders have a security interest in the Company's patent infringement claim in which the Lender has the right to the net proceeds of this lawsuit to satisfy outstanding principal and interest under the notes.
As part of the private placement of the 25% notes payable, the Company incurred debt placement fees of $34,500 in 2010. These debt placement fees have been treated as deferred finance charges and are being amortized to interest expense over the life of the notes payable. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, amortization of deferred finance charges was $4,313 and $8,625 for both periods, respectively.
Aggregate Maturities of Long-term Debt
Aggregate maturities of the senior secured convertible notes, convertible notes and notes payable over the next five years are as follows:
2012 | $50,000 | |
2013 | 690,000 | |
2014 | 95,000 | |

NOTE 7 – STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS
During 1999, the Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Company adopted, with the approval of the stockholders, a Stock Option Plan. In 2000, the Board superseded that plan and created a new Stock Option Plan, pursuant to which it is authorized to grant options to purchase up to 1.5 million shares of common stock. On December 17, 2003, the Board, with approval of the stockholders, superseded this plan and created the 2003 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”). Under the Plan the Company is authorized to grant options to purchase up to 18,000,000 shares of common stock to the Company’s employees, officers, directors, consultants, and other agents and advisors. The Plan is intended to permit stock options granted to employees under the Plan to qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Incentive Stock Options”). All options granted under the Plan, which are not intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, are deemed to be non-qualified options (“Non-Statutory Stock Options”). As of June 30, 2012, there were 3,100,000 options that had been issued and exercised, 13,625,996 options that had been issued and were unexercised, and 1,274,004 options that were available to be issued under the Plan.
The Plan is administered by a committee of the Board of Directors (“Stock Option Committee”) which determines the persons to whom awards will be granted, the number of awards to be granted and the specific terms of each grant, including the vesting thereof, subject to the provisions of the plan.
In connection with Incentive Stock Options, the exercise price of each option may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of the grant (or 110% of the fair market value in the case of a grantee holding more than 10% of the outstanding stock of the Company). The aggregate fair market value (determined at the time of the grant) of stock for which an employee may exercise Incentive Stock Options under all plans of the company shall not exceed $1,000,000 per calendar year. If any employee shall have the right to exercise any options in excess of $100,000 during any calendar year, the options in excess of $100,000 shall be deemed to be Non-Statutory Stock Options, including prices, duration, transferability and limitations on exercise.
The Company issued non-statutory stock options pursuant to contractual agreements to non-employees. Options granted under the agreements are expensed when the related service or product is provided.

Overview
We were incorporated in Nevada in November 1999. We are a technology development company that delivers product and document authentication and security. We plan to develop and market technologies in a variety of applications in the security fields.
We believe that the technologies we own will enable businesses to reconstruct their overall approaches to corporate security from counterfeit identification to employee or customer monitoring. Potential applications of our technologies are available in different types of products and industries - e.g., gaming, apparel, tobacco, perfume, compact disks, pharmaceuticals, event and transportation tickets, driver's licenses, insurance cards, passports, computer software, DVDs, and credit cards. We intend to generate sales through licenses of our technology or through direct sales of our technology to end-users.
We have filed a total of five patent applications relating to our technology, which have all been issued. These patents seek to accomplish non-intrusive document and product authentication in order to reduce losses caused by unpermitted document reproduction or by product counterfeiting. The technologies involve the utilization of invisible or color shifting/changing inks, which are compatible with today's printing machines. The inks may be used with certain printing systems such as offset, flexographic, silkscreen, gravure, and laser. Based upon the Company’s experience, we believe that the ink technologies may be incorporated into existing manufacturing processes. We believe that some of our patents may have non-security applications and we are attempting to commercialize these opportunities.
Strategic Outlook
We believe that the security and authentication industries will continue to grow over time, especially as counterfeiting becomes easier with advances in technology. Within the market, we intend to provide our products to government bodies, and merchants in the consumer products, gaming and financial services industries.
Sustained spending on technology, our ability to raise additional financing, and the continued growth of the security and authentication markets are all external conditions that may affect our ability to execute our business plan. In addition, certain potential customers may view our small size and limited financial resources as a negative even if they prefer our products to those of our competitors.
Our primary strategic objective over the next 12-24 months is to raise additional financing in order to successfully market our products and generate revenue that is sufficient to cover our operating expenses and support additional growth over the next several years.
We believe that our near-term success will depend particularly on our ability to develop customer awareness and confidence in our products. Since we have limited capital resources, we will need to closely manage our expenses and conserve our cash by continually monitoring any increase in expenses and reducing or eliminating unnecessary expenditures. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties encountered by companies in the development stage, particularly given that we operate in rapidly evolving markets, that we have limited financial resources, and face an uncertain economic environment. We may not be successful in addressing such risks and difficulties.
Results of Operations
Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011
The following discussion analyzes our results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. The following information should be considered together with our financial statements for such period and the accompanying notes thereto.
Net Loss for Three Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011
Revenue/Net Loss
We are a development stage company and have not generated significant revenue since our inception. For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we generated revenues of $0 and $3,690, respectively. Our net loss increased $118,669 to $249,086 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $130,417 for the three months ended June 30, 2011, as a result of increased expenses as further described below.
Cost of Sales
For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we incurred costs of sales of $0.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses were $2,123 and $5,050, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. The decrease in research and development expenses was due to the timing of research and development activities.
Legal and Accounting
Legal and accounting fees increased $44,832 to $79,462 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $34,630 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase in legal and accounting fees in 2012 was primarily related to a patent infringement lawsuit as well as for preparation of filings to bring the Company back into compliance with the filing requirement under the Exchange Act.
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012 were $51,954 as compared to $103,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $51,046. The expenses consisted largely of expenses associated with marketing the new technology associated with the SecureLight patent issued in 2011 and were reduced in 2012 as a result of cost conservation measures.
General and Administrative
For the three months ended June 30, 2012 general and administrative expenses were $35,297, a decrease of $56,084 from $91,381 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease resulted primarily from a decrease in insurance expense of $2,000, occupancy costs of $2,000, office expenses of $5,000 and payroll expenses of $48,000 related to share based compensation.
Interest Expense
During the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Company incurred interest expense of $80,251, as compared to $84,295 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease in interest expense directly correlates to the decrease in the interest rate negotiated for the extension of certain notes payable in June 2011.
Gain on Debt Forgiveness
During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company received a benefit of $184,242 in debt forgiveness, as compared to $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2012. This gain on debt forgiveness was the result of management’s negotiation with a vendor in the second quarter of 2011 to forgive amounts due that vendor.
Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011
The following discussion analyzes our results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. The following information should be considered together with our financial statements for such period and the accompanying notes thereto.
Net Loss for Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011
Revenue/Net Loss
We are a development stage company and have not generated significant revenue since our inception. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we generated revenues of $13,740 and $6,480.

This gain on debt forgiveness was the result of management’s negotiation with a vendor in the second quarter of 2011 to forgive amounts due that vendor.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of the date of this report, we had cash on hand of $96,150.
Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 decreased to $103,787 from $151,931 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 a decrease of $48,144. The decrease in net cash used in operating activities is mainly due to related to increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses and a decrease in prepaid expenses.
Net cash used in investing activities, consisting of patent costs, was $2,406 for the six months ended June 30, 2012. There were no investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $200,000 and $318,705, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. The net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was a result of additional debt financing of $200,000 obtained during the six months ended June 30, 2012. The net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 relates to $410,000 in proceeds received from the issuance of common stock and exercise of stock options, offset by payments of stock issuance costs of $40,000, repayments of notes payable of $33,500 and payment for treasury stock of $17,795.
In February 2006, the Company commenced a private placement of up to $800,000 principal amount of senior secured convertible promissory notes. As of June 30, 2012, $781,500 of these notes were outstanding. In June 2011, the due dates on these notes were extended as follows: $90,000 in September 2013; $95,000 in September 2014; $596,500 in September 2015. The interest rate associated with $762,500 of the notes is 10% per annum, while the remaining $19,000 of the notes is at 12% per annum. In addition, if an equity financing with total proceeds of more than $5,000,000 occurs while any notes are outstanding, holders of notes will have the right, at their option, to convert the outstanding principal and interest of the notes into shares at a discount of 30% of the price per share in the qualified financing. Accrued interest on these notes at June 30, 2012 amounted to $560,930.
During 2007, the Company commenced a private placement of up to $400,000 principal amount of 10% Convertible Promissory Notes. As of June 30, 2012, the outstanding principal balance on the notes was $140,000. Holders of Notes will have the right, at their option, to convert the outstanding principal and interest of the Notes into shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock at any time and from time to time at the option of the holder at the initial conversion price of $0.005333 per share. The Notes are unsecured.
In June 2011, the noteholder of the $140,000 under this convertible note issue agreed to extend the maturity date of these notes to September 30, 2015 at an interest rate of 10% per annum. Additionally, the noteholder agreed in writing to suspend its right to convert its notes until such time as the Company’s authorized shares have been increased. Remaining shares to be potentially issued under this convertible note issue are 26,250,000. Accrued interest on these notes at June 30, 2012 amounted to $71,750.
As of June 30, 2012, the Company has outstanding unsecured notes payable of $761,000, which bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum. In April 2012, $200,000 of these notes were issued with a maturity date of April 2013. During June 2011, the due date of $561,000 of these notes was extended to September 30, 2015. As of June 30, 2012, accrued interest on these notes payable amounted to $232,002.
In August 2009, the Company commenced a private placement of up to $300,000 consisting of up to 6 units. Each unit consists of a $50,000, 8% Series A Note Payable, due September 30, 2011, and a warrant to purchase 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The notes are unsecured. The Company sold 4.5 units under this private placement. As of June 30, 2012, $200,000 of these 8% Series A Notes Payable remain outstanding.

The remaining $50,000 was due in October 2011 and is currently past due. Accrued interest on the 8% Series A Notes Payable at June 30, 2012 amounted to $44,667.
In 2010, the Company issued $400,000 in notes payable in order to finance a patent infringement lawsuit (see Contingencies Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements). The notes payable accrue interest at 25% per annum and mature upon the earlier of September 1, 2013 or the date on which the Company receives net proceeds from the patent infringement claim. In addition to the base interest of 25% per annum, the lenders are entitled to Bonus Interest equal to the following:
a. | First monies realized by the Company from its share of the net proceeds of the lawsuit shall be allocated and paid to the Lender until the principal and base interest accruing has been fully paid. |
b. | The next monies from the net proceeds of the litigation settlement will be paid to the Company to reimburse for out-of-pocket legal costs related to the lawsuit. |
c. | The next $825,000 of proceeds will be split 50%/50% between the Company and the Lenders. |
d. | The next $1 million realized by the Company shall be allocated 90% to the Company and 10% to the Lenders. |
e. | The next $1 million realized by Company shall be allocated 85% to Company and 15% to Lenders. |
f. | All remaining proceeds realized by Company shall be allocated 80% to Company and 20% to Lenders. |
Accrued interest on these 25% notes payable at June 30, 2012 amounted to $180,729.
The Company is in the development stage. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company’s operational resources were used primarily to fund general and administrative expenses to continue operations and a significantly reduced sales and marketing program.
As we have not realized significant revenues since our inception, we have financed our operations through public and private offerings of debt and equity securities. We do not currently maintain a line of credit or term loan with any commercial bank or other financial institution.
Since our inception, we have focused on developing and implementing our business plan. Our business plans are dependent on our ability to raise capital through private placements of our common stock and/or preferred stock, through the possible exercise of outstanding options and warrants, through debt financing and/or through a future public offering of our securities. There is no assurance that we will raise sufficient capital in order to meet our goals of implementing a sales and marketing effort to introduce the products. We believe that our existing cash resources will not be sufficient to sustain our operations during the next twelve months. We intend to raise such financing through private placements and/or the sale of debt and equity securities. The issuance of additional equity would result in dilution to our existing shareholders. If we are unable to obtain additional funds when they are needed or if such funds cannot be obtained on terms favorable to us, we may be unable to execute upon our business plan or pay our costs and expenses as they are incurred, which could have a material, adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Even if we are successful in raising sufficient capital in order to complete the marketing program for our products, our ability to continue in business as a viable going concern can only be achieved when our revenues reach a level that sustains our business operations. While it is impossible to predict the amount of revenues, if any, that we may receive from our products, we presently believe, based solely on our internal projections, that we will generate revenues sufficient to fund our planned business operations if the products are marketed effectively in accordance with our plans. There can be no assurance that we will raise sufficient proceeds, or any proceeds, for us to implement fully our proposed business plan. Moreover there can be no assurance that even if our products are marketed effectively, that we will generate revenues sufficient to fund our operations. In either situation, we may not be able to continue our operations and our business might fail.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2012, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partners, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As such, we are not materially exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements are impacted by the accounting policies used and the estimates and assumptions made by management during their preparation. We have identified below the accounting policies that are of particular importance in the presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows and which require the application of significant judgment by management.
Stock-based Compensation
We account for stock-based compensation under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values on the grant date. We estimate the fair value of stock-based awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods using the straight-line method.
We account for stock-based compensation awards to non-employees in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees (“ASC 505-50”). Under ASC 505-50, we determine the fair value of the warrants or stock-based compensation awards granted as either the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
All issuances of stock options or other equity instruments to non-employees as consideration for goods or services received by the Company are accounted for based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. Any stock options issued to non-employees are recorded as an expense and additional paid-in capital in stockholders’ equity over the applicable service periods using variable accounting through the vesting dates based on the fair value of the options at the end of each period.
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition (Codified in FASB ASC 605), we recognize revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of a customer or distributor arrangement exists, (ii) a retailer, distributor or wholesaler receives the goods and acceptance occurs, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectibility of the sales revenues is reasonably assured. Subject to these criteria, the Company recognizes revenue from product sales, consisting mainly of pigments and penlights, upon shipment to the customer. Royalty revenue is recognized upon receipt of notification from a customer that the Company’s product has been used in the customer’s production process.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Recently issued accounting pronouncements are discussed in Note 1 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere in this report.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not Applicable
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
As of June 30, 2012, we carried out the evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures required by Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, because of the material weakness described below.
A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements would not be prevented or detected. A material weakness in the Company’s internal controls exists in that there is limited segregation of duties amongst the Company’s employees with respect to the Company’s preparation and review of the Company’s financial statements. This material weakness is a result of the Company’s limited number of personnel. This material weakness may affect management’s ability to effectively review and analyze elements of the financial statement closing process and prepare financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with this evaluation that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
