Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Item 2 of Part I of this report include forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by forward-looking statements.
In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "should," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts," "potential," "proposed," "intended," or "continue" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. You should read statements that contain these words carefully, because they discuss our expectations about our future operating results or our future financial condition or state other "forward-looking" information. There may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or control. Before you invest in our securities, you should be aware that the occurrence of any of the events described in this Quarterly Report could substantially harm our business, results of operations and financial condition, and that upon the occurrence of any of these events, the trading price of our securities could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, growth rates, levels of activity, performance or achievements. We are under no duty to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this Quarterly Report to conform these statements to actual results.

VERITEC,
INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2013 AND 2012 (UNAUDITED)
A. NATURE OF BUSINESS
References to the “Company” in this Form 10-Q refer to Veritec, Inc. (“Veritec”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries Vcode Holdings, Inc. (Vcode®), and Veritec Financial Systems, Inc. (VTFS).
The Company is primarily engaged in the development, marketing, sales and licensing of products and rendering of professional services related thereto in the following two fields of technology: (1) proprietary two-dimensional matrix symbology (also commonly referred to as “two-dimensional barcodes” or “2D barcodes”), and (2) mobile banking solutions.
The Company’s two-dimensional matrix symbology technology will hereafter be referred to as the Company’s “Barcode Technology”, and the Company’s mobile banking technology will hereafter be referred to as its “Mobile
Banking Technology”.
The Company’s Barcode Technology was originally invented by the founders of Veritec under United States patents 4,924,078,
5,331,176, 5,612,524 and 7,159,780. Our principal licensed product to date that contains our VeriCode ® Barcode
Technology has been a product identification system for identification and tracking of manufactured parts, components and products
mostly in the liquid crystal display (LCD) markets. The VeriCode® symbol is a two-dimensional high data density machine-readable
symbol that can contain up to approximately 500 bytes of data.
The Company’s VSCode® Barcode Technology is a derivative of the VeriCode® symbol with the ability to encrypt a greater amount of data by increasing data density. The VSCode ® is a data storage “container” that offers a high degree of security and which can also be tailored to the application requirements of the user. The VSCode ® symbol can hold any form of binary information that can be digitized, including numbers, letters, images, photos, graphics, and the minutia for biometric information, including fingerprints and facial image data, to the extent of its data storage capacity, that are likewise limited by the resolution of the marking and reading devices employed by the user. VSCode ® is ideal for secure identification documents (such as national identification cards, driver’s licenses, and voter registration cards), financial cards, medical records and other high security applications.
In its PhoneCodes™ product platform, Veritec developed software to send, store, display, and read a VeriCode® Barcode Technology symbol on the LCD screen of a mobile phone. With the electronic media that provide the ease of transferring information over the web, Veritec’s PhoneCodes™ technology enables individuals and companies to receive or distribute gift certificates, tickets, coupons, receipts, or engage in banking transactions using the VeriCode ® technology via wireless phone or PDA.
On January 12, 2009, Veritec formed VTFS, a Delaware corporation, to bring its Mobile Banking Technology, products and related professional services to market. In May 2009 Veritec was registered by Security First Bank in Visa’s Third Party Registration Program as a Cardholder Independent Sales Organization and Third-Party Servicer. As a Cardholder Independent Sales Organization, Veritec was able to promote and sell Visa branded card programs. As a Third-Party Servicer, Veritec provided back-end cardholder transaction processing services for Visa branded card programs on behalf of Security First Bank. As of October 2010 the Company’s registration with Security First Bank terminated. As of April 2011 the Company signed an ISO and processor agreement with Palm Desert National Bank (which was later assigned to First California Bank) to market and processes the Company’s Visa branded card program on behalf of the bank. First California Bank was sold to Pacific Western Bank and June 2013 Pacific Western Bank closed its entire debit card division and transferred its contract with VTFS to Central Bank of Kansas City Bank. On February 5th, 2014 the entire relationship between Veritec and Pacific Western Bank ended and the new relationship with Central Bank of Kansas City began.
-7- |
Our VeriSuite™ card enrollment system was released in July 2009. The VeriSuite™ system is a user friendly and cost effective solution that gives governments and businesses the ability to provide cardholders with an identity card containing Veritec’s VSCode® Barcode Technology. The VeriSuite™ system provides secure Bio-ID Cards such as citizen identification, employee cards, health benefit cards, border control cards, financial cards, and more.
The Company has a portfolio of five United States and eight foreign patents. In addition, we have seven U.S. and twenty-eight foreign pending patent applications.
B. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required 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. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2014. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2013 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of such date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in our Form 10-K as of and for the year ended June 30, 2014.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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. Those estimates and assumptions include estimates for reserves of uncollectible accounts, accruals for potential liabilities and assumptions made in valuing stock instruments issued for services.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Veritec, VCode, and VTFS. All inter-company transactions and balances were eliminated in consolidation.
C. GOING CONCERN
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. At December 31, 2013, the Company had a working capital deficit of $4,546,407 and a stockholders’ deficiency of $4,507,045. The Company is delinquent or in default of $3,034,401 of its notes payable and is delinquent in payment of certain amounts due of $651,679 for payroll taxes and accrued interest and penalties as of December 31, 2013. The Company believes its cash and forecasted cash flow from operations will not be sufficient to continue operations through fiscal 2014 without continued external investment. The Company will require additional funds to continue its operations through fiscal 2014 and to continue to develop its existing projects and plans to raise such funds by finding additional investors to purchase the Company’s securities, generating sufficient sales revenue, implementing dramatic cost reductions or any combination thereof. There is no assurance that the Company can be successful in raising such funds, generating the necessary sales or reducing major costs. Further, if the Company is successful in raising such funds from sales of equity securities, the terms of these sales may cause significant dilution to existing holders of common stock. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from this uncertainty.
D. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Net Loss per Common Share:
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per
-8- |
share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued, using the treasury stock method. Potential common shares are excluded from the computation as their effect is antidilutive.
For the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 the calculations of basic and diluted loss per share are the same because potential dilutive securities would have an anti-dilutive effect.
For the six months December 31, 2013 the calculation of diluted earnings per share included stock options calculated under the treasury stock method, and excluded preferred stock since the effect was antidilutive. For the six months ended December 31, 2012 the calculations of basic and diluted loss per share are the same because potential dilutive securities would have an anti-dilutive effect.
The calculation of weighted average shares outstanding – diluted is as follows for the six months ended:
December 31, | ||||||||

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09), Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 will eliminate transaction- and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 will require that companies recognize revenue based on the value of transferred goods or services as they occur in the contract. The ASU also will require additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. Entities can transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. Management is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 and has not determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting.
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08 (ASU 2014-08), Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant and Equipment (Topic 360). ASU 2014-08 amends the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and requires additional disclosures about discontinued operations. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations or that have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results should be presented as discontinued operations. This new accounting guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014-08 on the Company's results of operations or financial condition.
In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15 (ASU 2014-15), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, which provides guidance on determining when and how to disclose going-concern uncertainties in the financial statements. The new standard requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued. An entity must provide certain disclosures if conditions or events raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ASU applies to all entities and is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods thereafter, with early adoption permitted.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the Securities Exchange Commission (the "SEC") did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial statements.
E. RESTRICTED CASH
The Company entered into Store Value Prepaid Card Sponsorship Agreements (the “Agreement”) with certain banks whereas the Company markets and sells store value prepaid card programs (the “Programs”). The Programs are marketed and managed daily at the direction of the Bank, for which the company receives a transaction fee. In connection with the agreements the Company is required to establish a Reserve Account controlled by the bank. At December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, the restricted cash totaled $38,163 and $499,277, respectively. Since this amount is restricted for the purposes related to the Programs, it is classified as restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheet.
F. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
During the period ended December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013 the Company received various unsecured, non-interest bearing, due on demand advances from its CEO Ms. Van Tran, a related party. These advances have been classified as accounts payable, related party on the balance sheet. The Company also leases its office facilities from Ms. Van Tran.

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations – Three Months Ended December 31, 2013 compared to December 31, 2012
We had a net loss of $9,593 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 compared to a net loss of $195,481 for the three months ended December 31, 2012.
License and other revenue
Details of revenues are as follows:
Three Months Ended December 31, | Increase (Decrease) | |||||||||||||||
2013 | 2012 | $ | % | |||||||||||||
Bar Code Technology | $ | 305,563 | $ | 77,309 | $ | 228,344 | 295.4 | |||||||||

Total Revenues | $ | 305,653 | $ | 129,302 | $ | 176,351 | 136.4 |
License and hardware revenues are derived from our Product Identification systems sold principally to customers in the LCD manufacturing industry. Identification Card revenues in these periods were a result of sales of identification card and mobile banking systems.
The license revenue increase or decrease was mainly attributable to the demand for LCD screens. Revenues from the LCD market remain unpredictable as they are generated when customers open new production facilities or update production equipment; however, for now the Company continues to experience relatively low demand for product identification product licenses in the LCD industry. A large portion of our license sales are concentrated in the Asia-Pacific market, which decreased in Taiwan, Japan, Germany, and increase in Korea and China. The largest increase of our license sales for the three months ended December 31, 2013 was in Korea.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, totaled $70,087 and $51,344, respectively. As a percentage of revenue, for the three months ended December 31, 2013, cost of sales was 22.9% compared to 39.8% for the three months ended December 31, 2012.
Operating Expenses
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2013 were $124,334, compared to $134,721 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, a decrease of $10,387. The decrease was the result of reduced payroll in R&D.
Sales and marketing expense for the three months ended December 31, 2013 was $29,429 compared to $17,270 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $12,159. The increase was a result of additional travel for sales contacts.
Research and development expense for the three months ended December 31, 2013 totaled $45,342 compared to $35,200 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $10,142. This increase was a result of additional programing and development.
Other Expenses, net
Other expense, net for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $46,053 and $86,248, respectively. The increase in expense was the result of related programing and development not itemize or associated to R&D.

Other Expenses, net
Other expense, net for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $95,830 and $167,348, respectively. The decrease in expense was the result of controlling excessive spending during travel and special initiatives.

Liquidity
Our increase in cash and cash equivalent to $309,154 at December 31, 2013 compared to $75,918 at June 30, 2013 was the result of $598,506 in cash provided by operating activities and $364,036 used in financing activities. Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended December 31, 2013 was $598,506 compared with $191,194 used in operating activities during the same period in 2013. Cash provided by operations during the six months ended December 31, 2013 was primarily due to our increased sales and corresponding net income. Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended December 31, 2013 of $364,036 was from payments on notes payable. During the same period in 2012, the net cash provided by financing activities of $165,000 was from proceeds received from notes payable.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. At December 31, 2013, the Company had a working capital deficit of $4,546,407 and a stockholders’ deficiency of $4,507,045. The Company is currently in default of $3,034,401 of notes payable and is also delinquent in payment of certain amounts due of $651,679 for payroll taxes and accrued interest and penalties as of December 31, 2013. The Company believes its cash and forecasted cash flow from operations will not be sufficient to continue operations through fiscal 2014 without continued external investment. The Company believes it will require additional funds to continue its operations through fiscal 2014 and to continue to develop its existing projects and plans to raise such funds by finding additional investors to purchase the Company’s securities, generating sufficient sales revenue, implementing dramatic cost reductions or any combination thereof. There is no assurance that the Company can be successful in raising such funds, generating the necessary sales or reducing major costs. Further, if the Company is successful in raising such funds from sales of equity securities, the terms of these sales may cause significant dilution to existing holders of common stock. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from this uncertainty. Our auditor has issued a “going concern” qualification as part of their opinion in the Audit Report for the year ended June 30, 2013.
The Company has relied on The Matthews Group, LLC (TMG), a related party owned 50% by Van Tran, the Company’s CEO/Executive Chair and a director, and 50% by Larry Johanns, a significant stockholder of the Company, for funding.
If the Company is not successful in raising additional funds, generating sufficient revenues or implementing sufficient cost reductions, the Company may be forced to suspend or discontinue its operations or seek relief from its debt obligations under the United States Bankruptcy Code. Any of these actions is likely to result in a common stockholder’s loss of his or her complete investment in the Company’s common stock.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09), Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 will eliminate transaction- and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 will require that companies recognize revenue based on the value of transferred goods or services as they occur in the contract. The ASU also will require additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. Entities can transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. Management is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 and has not determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting.
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08 (ASU 2014-08), Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant and Equipment (Topic 360). ASU 2014-08 amends the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and requires additional disclosures about discontinued operations. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations or that have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results should be presented as discontinued operations. This new accounting guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014-08 on the Company's results of operations or financial condition.
-15- |
In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15 (ASU 2014-15), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, which provides guidance on determining when and how to disclose going-concern uncertainties in the financial statements. The new standard requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued. An entity must provide certain disclosures if conditions or events raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ASU applies to all entities and is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods thereafter, with early adoption permitted.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the Securities Exchange Commission (the "SEC") did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies
Stock-Based Compensation:
The Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in capital raising transactions, for services and for financing costs. Stock-based compensation for employees is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. Options vest and expire according to terms established at the grant date. The value of the stock compensation to non-employees is based upon the measurement date as determined at either (a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached or (b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete.
We estimate volatility and forfeitures based upon historical data. As permitted by the authoritative guidance issued by the FASB, we use the “simplified” method to determine the expected life of an option due to the Company’s lack of sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis, which is a result of the relative high turnover rates experienced in the past for positions granted options. All of these variables have an effect on the estimated fair value of our share-based awards.
Revenue Recognition:
The Company accounts for revenue recognition in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 101 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" and related amendments. Revenues for the Company are classified into four separate products; license revenue (Veritec’s Multi-Dimensional matrix symbology), hardware revenue, identification card revenue, and debit card revenue. Revenues from licenses, hardware, and identification cards are recognized when the product is shipped and collection is reasonably assured. The process typically begins for license and hardware revenue with a customer purchase order detailing its hardware specifications so the Company can import its software into the customer's hardware. Once importation is completed, if the customer only wishes to purchase a license, the Company typically transmits the software to the customer via the Internet. Revenue is recognized at that point. If the customer requests both license and hardware products, once the software is imported into the hardware and the process is complete, the product is shipped and revenue is recognized at time of shipment. Once the software and/or hardware are either shipped or transmitted, the customers do not have a right of refusal or return. Under some conditions, the customers remit payment prior to the Company having completed importation of the software. In these instances, the Company delays revenue recognition and reflects the prepayments as customer deposits.
-16- |
The process for identification cards begins when a customer requests, via the Internet, an identification card. The card is reviewed for design and placement of the data, printed and packaged for shipment. At the time the identification cards are shipped and collection is reasonably assured, revenue is recognized.
The Company, as a processor and a distributor, recognizes revenue from transaction fees charged cardholders for the use of its issued mobile debit cards. The fees are recognized on a monthly basis after all cardholder transactions have been summarized and reconciled with third party processors.
ITEM 3 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item 3.
ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) Rules 13a-15(e) and 15-d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of December 31, 2013, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described in our Form 10-K at June 30, 2013.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
In our Form 10-K at June 30, 2013, we identified certain matters that constitute material weaknesses (as defined under the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 2) in our internal control over financial reporting as discussed on Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. We are undergoing ongoing evaluation and improvements in our internal control over financial reporting. Regarding our identified weaknesses, we have performed the following remediation efforts:
• | We have assigned our audit committee with oversight responsibilities. |
• | Our financial statements, periodic reports filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, our monthly bank statements and imaged checks are now continuously reviewed by our chief financial officer and chief executive officer. |
• | All significant contracts are now being reviewed and approved by our board of directors in conjunction with the chief executive officer. |
There was no other change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
