NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

 

October 31, 2012

 

The following (a) condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 31, 2012, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and (b) the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by Non-Invasive Monitoring Systems, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company” or “NIMS”) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to the quarterly report on Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These statements reflect adjustments, all of which are of a normal, recurring nature, and which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of October 31, 2012, and results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods ended October 31, 2012 and 2011. The results of operations for the three months ended October 31, 2012, are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The Company’s accounting policies continue unchanged from July 31, 2012. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2012.

 

1.ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

 

Organization. Non-Invasive Monitoring Systems, Inc., a Florida corporation (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company” or “NIMS”), began business as a medical diagnostic monitoring company to develop computer-aided continuous monitoring devices to detect abnormal respiratory and cardiac events using sensors on the human body’s surface. It has ceased to operate in this market and has licensed the rights to its technology. The Company now focuses on developing and marketing its Exer-Rest® line of acceleration therapeutic platforms based upon unique, patented whole body periodic acceleration (“WBPA”) technology. The Exer-Rest line of acceleration therapeutic platforms currently includes the Exer-Rest AT, AT3800 and AT4700 models.

 

Business. The Company is developing and marketing its Exer-Rest® line of acceleration therapeutic platforms based upon unique, patented whole body periodic acceleration (“WBPA”) technology. The Exer-Rest line of acceleration therapeutic platforms currently includes the Exer-Rest AT, AT3800 and AT4700 models.

 

The Company received revenue from royalties on sales of diagnostic monitoring hardware and software by SensorMedics and from VivoMetrics in prior years. VivoMetrics ceased operations in July 2009 and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in October 2009. Under VivoMetrics’ approved bankruptcy plan of reorganization, our license with VivoMetrics was assigned to another company; however, there can be no assurance as to the future amount of royalty revenue, if any, that we may derive from this license or from our existing license with SensorMedics. In fiscal year 2009, NIMS began commercial sales of its third generation Exer-Rest therapeutic platforms.

 

During the calendar years 2005 to 2007, the Company designed, developed and manufactured the first Exer-Rest platform (now the Exer-Rest AT), a second generation acceleration therapeutics platform, and updated its operations to promote the Exer-Rest AT overseas as an aid to improve circulation and joint mobility and to relieve minor aches and pains.

 

The Company has developed a third generation of Exer-Rest acceleration therapeutic platforms (designated the Exer-Rest AT3800 and the Exer-Rest AT4700) that had been manufactured by Sing Lin Technologies Co. Ltd. (“Sing Lin”) based in Taichung, Taiwan (see Note 10).

 

NIMS, an ISO 13485 certified company, began marketing operations in the United States in 2009 upon receiving the FDA clearance. The Company is also permitted to sell Exer-Rest in Canada, the United Kingdom, the European Economic Area, India, the Middle East and certain other markets that recognize FDA and/or CE certifications, and began international marketing operations during fiscal 2008.

 

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared and presented on a basis assuming it will continue as a going concern. As reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had net losses in the amount of $0.1 million and $0.2 million for each of the three month periods ended October 31, 2012 and 2011, and has experienced significant cash outflows from operating activities. The Company also has an accumulated deficit of $23.5 million as of October 31, 2012, and has substantial purchase commitments at October 31, 2012 (see note 10) and owes $1.4 million, including interest, under its credit facility and outstanding promissory notes. The Company had $51,000 of cash at October 31, 2012 and negative working capital of approximately $1.1 million. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

 

October 31, 2012

 

Absent any significant revenues from product sales, additional debt or equity financing will be required for the Company to continue its business activities, which are currently focused on the production, marketing and commercial sale of the Exer-Rest. Management intends to obtain any additional capital needed to continue its business activities through new debt or equity financing, but there can be no assurance that it will be successful in this regard. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

As further discussed in Note 10, the Company in 2010 terminated its agreement with Sing Lin. As of October 31, 2012, the Company has payables due to Sing Lin of approximately $41,000.

 

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Consolidation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Non-Invasive Monitoring Systems of Florida, Inc., which has no current operations, and NIMS of Canada, Inc., a Canadian corporation, which has no current operations. All material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions, such as accounts receivable, warranty accrual, deferred taxes, and the input variables for stock based compensation as estimates, that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments purchased with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company includes overnight repurchase agreements securing its depository bank accounts (sweep accounts) in its cash balances. At October 31, 2012 and July 31, 2012, the Company had approximately $51,000 and $56,000, respectively, on deposit in such sweep accounts.

 

Allowances for Doubtful Accounts. Royalties and other receivables are recorded at the stated amount of the transactions. The Company provides an allowance for royalties and other receivables it believes it may not collect in full. Receivables are written off when they are deemed to be uncollectible and all collection attempts have ceased. The amount of bad debt recorded each period and the resulting adequacy of the allowance at the end of each period are determined using a combination of the Company’s historical loss experience, customer-by-customer analysis of the Company’s accounts receivable each period and subjective assessments of the Company’s future bad debt exposure.

 

Inventories. Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out method, and are evaluated at least annually for impairment. Inventories at October 31, 2012 and July 31, 2012 primarily consist of finished Exer-Rest units, spare parts and accessories. Provisions for potentially obsolete or slow-moving inventory are made based on management’s analysis of inventory levels, historical obsolescence and future sales forecasts.

 

Tooling and Equipment. These assets are stated at cost and depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method, over their estimated useful lives.

 

Long-lived Assets. The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. In performing the review for recoverability, the Company estimates the future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment loss is recognized as the difference between the fair value and the carrying amount of the asset.

 

Taxes Assessed on Revenue-Producing Transactions. The Company presents sales taxes assessed on revenue-producing transactions between a seller and customer using the net presentation; thus, sales and cost of revenues are not affected by such taxes.

 

Income Taxes. The Company provides for income taxes using an asset and liability based approach. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes. The deferred tax asset for loss carryforwards and other potential future tax benefits has been fully offset by a valuation allowance since it is uncertain whether any future benefit will be realized. The Company files its tax returns as prescribed by the laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. Tax years ranging from 2009 to 2012 remain open to examination by various taxing jurisdictions as the statute of limitations has not expired. It is the Company’s policy to include income tax interest and penalty expense in its tax provision.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

 

October 31, 2012

 

Revenue Recognition. Revenue from product sales is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the goods are shipped and title has transferred, the price is fixed or determinable, and the collection of the sales proceeds is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes royalties as they are earned, based on reports from licensees. Research and consulting revenue and revenue from sales of extended warranties on therapeutic platforms are recognized over the term of the respective agreements.

 

Advertising Costs. The Company expenses all costs of advertising as incurred. Advertising and promotional costs was $0 for both the three months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011.

 

Research and Development Costs. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred, and primarily consist of payments to third parties for research and development of the Exer-Rest device and regulatory testing and other costs to obtain FDA approval.

 

Warranties. The Company’s warranties are two years on all Exer-Rest products sold domestically and one year for products sold outside of the U.S. and are accrued based on management’s estimates and the history of warranty costs incurred. There were no material warranty costs incurred during the three months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011, and management estimates that the Company’s accrued warranty expense at October 31, 2012 will be sufficient to offset claims made for units under warranty.

 

Stock-based compensation. The Company recognizes all share-based payments, including grants of stock options, as operating expenses, based on their grant date fair values. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized over the vesting life of the underlying stock options and is included in selling, general and administrative costs and expenses in the condensed consolidated comprehensive statements of operations for all periods presented.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of October 31, 2012 and July 31, 2012. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, royalties and other receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable approximate fair values because they are short term in nature or they bear current market interest rates. As of October 31, 2012, the respective carrying value of the notes payable – related party and notes payable – other approximate our current borrowing rate for similar debt instruments of comparable maturity and are considered Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy.

 

Foreign Currency Translation. The functional currency for the Company’s foreign subsidiary is the local currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date while income and expense amounts are translated at average exchange rates during the period. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are disclosed as a separate component of stockholders’ deficit and other comprehensive loss. Foreign currency translation adjustments totaled $0 and $19,000, respectively, for the three months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011.

 

Comprehensive Income (Loss). Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources, including foreign currency translations.

 

Loss Contingencies. We recognize contingent losses that are both probable and estimable. In this context, we define probability as circumstances under which events are likely to occur. In regards to legal costs, we record such costs as incurred.

 

3.INVENTORIES

 

The Company’s inventory consisted of the following at October 31, 2012 and July 31, 2012 (in thousands):

 

   October 31, 2012   July 31, 2012

4.STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

The Company measures the cost of employee, officer and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The fair value of the Company’s stock option awards is expensed over the vesting life of the underlying stock options using the graded vesting method, with each tranche of vesting options valued separately. The Company recorded stock-based compensation of $4,000 and $8,000, respectively, for the three months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011. All stock-based compensation is included in the Company’s selling, general and administrative costs and expenses.

 

The Company’s 2000 Stock Option Plan, as amended (the “2000 Plan”), provides for the issuance of up to 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The 2000 Plan allows the issuance of incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock awards. The exercise price of the options is determined by the compensation committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, but incentive stock options, if any, must be granted at an exercise price not less than the fair market value of the Company’s common stock as of the grant date or an exercise price of not less than 110% of the fair value for a 10% shareholder. Options expire up to ten years from the date of the grant and are exercisable according to the terms of the individual option agreements. The 2000 Plan has expired and no future grants can be made from the 2000 Plan.

 

In November 2010, the Board and Compensation Committee approved the Non-Invasive Monitoring Systems, Inc. 2011 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2011 Plan”). Awards granted under the 2011 Plan may consist of incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights (SAR), restricted stock grants, restricted stock units (RSU) performance shares, performance units or cash awards. The 2011 Plan authorizes up to 4,000,000 shares of our common stock for issuance pursuant to the terms of the 2011 Plan. The 2011 Plan was approved by our shareholders in March 2012 and no awards have been granted under the 2011 Plan as of October 31, 2012.

 

The Company did not grant any stock options during the three months ended October 31, 2012 or 2011.

5.ROYALTIES

 

The Company is a party to two licensing agreements with SensorMedics and VivoMetrics. The Company receives royalty income from the sale of its diagnostic monitoring hardware and software from SensorMedics and previously received royalties from VivoMetrics prior to its bankruptcy. Royalty income from the SensorMedics license amounted to $15,000 and $32,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. No royalties from VivoMetrics were recognized for the three months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. VivoMetrics ceased operations in July 2009 and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in October 2009. Under VivoMetrics’ proposed bankruptcy plan of reorganization, the Company’s license with VivoMetrics was assigned to another company; however, there can be no assurance as to the future amount of royalty income, if any, that may result from this license.

The interest rate payable on amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility is 11% per annum, and increases to 16% per annum after the Credit Facility Maturity Date or after an event of default. All amounts owing under the Credit Facility are required to be repaid by the Credit Facility Maturity Date, and amounts outstanding are prepayable at any time. As of October 31, 2012, the Company had drawn an aggregate of $1,000,000 under the Credit Facility.

 

2011 Promissory Notes. On September 12, 2011, the Company entered into two Promissory Notes in the principal amount of $50,000 each with Frost Gamma Investments Trust, a trust controlled by Dr. Phillip Frost, which beneficially owns in excess of 10% of the Company’s common stock, and with an unrelated third party for a total of $100,000. The interest rate payable by NIMS on both the Frost Gamma Note and the unrelated third party note is 11% per annum, payable on the maturity date of September 12, 2014.

7.SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

 

The Company did not issue any shares for the three months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011.

 

8.BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER SHARE

 

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. Diluted potential common shares consist of incremental shares issuable upon exercise of stock options and warrants and conversion of preferred stock. In computing diluted net loss per share for the three months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011, no dilution adjustment has been made to the weighted average outstanding common shares because the assumed exercise of outstanding options and warrants and the conversion of preferred stock would be anti-dilutive.

 

Potential common shares not included in calculating diluted net loss per share are as follows:

 

   October 31, 2012   October 31, 2011 
Stock options   758,750    1,491,250 
Series C Preferred Stock   1,551,200    1,551,200 
Series D Preferred Stock   13,975,000    13,975,000 
Total   16,284,950    17,017,450

Product Development and Supply Agreement.

 

On September 4, 2007, the Company entered into a Product Development and Supply Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Sing Lin Technologies Co. Ltd., a company based in Taichung, Taiwan ("Sing Lin"). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company consigned to Sing Lin the development and design of the next generation Exer-Rest and related devices. The Agreement commenced as of September 3, 2007 and had a term that extended three years from the acceptance by NIMS of the first run of production units. Thereafter, the Agreement automatically renewed for successive one year terms unless either party sent the other a notice of non-renewal. Either party was permitted to terminate the Agreement with ninety days prior written notice. Upon termination, each party’s obligations under the Agreement were to be limited to obligations related to confirmed orders placed prior to the termination date.

 

Pursuant to the Agreement, Sing Lin designed, developed and manufactured the tooling required to manufacture the acceleration therapeutic platforms for a total cost to the Company of $471,000. Sing Lin utilized the tooling in the performance of its production obligations under the Agreement. The Company paid Sing Lin $150,000 of the tooling cost upon execution of the Agreement and $150,000 upon the Company’s approval of the product prototype concepts and designs. The balance of the final tooling cost became due and payable in September 2008 upon acceptance of the first units produced using the tooling, and was paid in full during the year ended July 31, 2009.

 

Under the now-terminated Agreement, the Company also granted Sing Lin the exclusive distribution rights for the products in certain countries in the Far East, including Taiwan, China, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Indonesia and certain other countries. Sing Lin agreed not to sell the Products outside its geographic areas in the Far East.

 

The Agreement provided for the Company to purchase approximately $2.6 million of Exer-Rest units within one year of the September 2008 acceptance of the final product. The Agreement further provided for the Company to purchase $4.1 million and $8.8 million of Exer-Rest products in the second and third years following such acceptance, respectively. These minimum purchase amounts were based upon 2007 product costs multiplied by volume commitments. Through October 31, 2012, the Company had paid Sing Lin $1.7 million in connection with orders placed through that date. Of this amount, $90,000 was previously included as advances to contract manufacturer. As of October 31, 2012, the Company has approximately $41,000 of payables due to Sing Lin. As of October 31, 2012 and July 31, 2012, aggregate minimum future purchases under the Agreement totaled approximately $13.9 million.

 

As of October 31, 2012, the Company had not placed orders sufficient to meet the first-year or second-year minimum purchase obligations under the Agreement. The Company notified Sing Lin in June 2010 that it was terminating the Agreement effective September 2010, and Sing Lin in July 2010 demanded that the Company place orders sufficient to fulfill the three year minimum purchase obligations in the Agreement. As of December 14, 2012, Sing Lin has not followed up on its July 2010 demand. There can be no assurance that Sing Lin will not attempt to enforce its remedies under the Agreement, or pursue other potential remedies.

ITEM 2.MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-looking Statements.

 

This Interim Report on Form 10-Q contains, in addition to historical information, certain forward-looking statements regarding Non-Invasive Monitoring Systems, Inc. (the “Company” or “NIMS,” also referred to as “us”, “we” or “our”). These forward-looking statements represent our expectations or beliefs concerning the Company’s operations, performance, financial condition, business strategies, and other information and that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. For this purpose, any statements contained in this Report that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “could,” “estimate,” or “continue” or the negative or other variations thereof or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The Company’s actual results of operations, some of which are beyond the Company’s control, could differ materially from the activities and results implied by the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to the Company’s: history of operating losses and accumulated deficit; immediate need for additional financing; the Company’s inability to repay the Credit Facility currently due on July 31, 2013 or Promissory Notes due on September 12, 2014, dependence on future sales of the Exer-Rest® motion platforms; current and future purchase commitments; competition; dependence on management; changes in healthcare rules and regulations; risks related to proprietary rights; government regulation, including regulatory approvals; other factors described herein as well as the factors contained in “Item 1A - Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2012. We do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements, except as required by applicable law. These forward-looking statements are only predictions and reflect our views as of the date they are made with respect to future events and financial performance.

 

Overview

 

We are primarily engaged in the development, manufacture and marketing of non-invasive, whole body periodic acceleration (“WBPA”) therapeutic platforms, which are motorized platforms that move a subject repetitively head to foot. Our acceleration therapeutic platforms are the inventions of Marvin A. Sackner, M.D., our founder, former Chief Executive Officer and a current member of our Board of Directors. Over thirty peer reviewed scientific publications attest to the benefits of whole body periodic acceleration in animal and human research investigations. According to those studies, the application of this technology causes increased release of beneficial substances such as nitric oxide from the inner lining of blood vessels throughout the vasculature for improved circulation and the reduction of inflammation. These findings are not being claimed as an intended use of the device for marketing purposes, but demonstrate a potential mechanism for its benefits.

 

The development and commercialization of the Exer-Rest has necessitated substantial expenditures and commitments of capital, and we anticipate expenses and associated losses to continue for the foreseeable future, as we expect to continue sales efforts in the United States, Canada, the UK, Europe, India, Mexico, Latin America, the Middle East and the Far East. We will be required to raise additional capital to fulfill our business plan, but no commitment to raise such additional capital exists or can be assured. If we are unsuccessful in our efforts to expand sales and/or raise capital, we will not be able to continue operations.

 

Products

 

Whole Body Periodic Acceleration (“WBPA”) Therapeutic Devices

 

The original AT-101 was a comfortable gurney-styled device that provided movement of a platform repetitively in a head-to-foot motion at a rapid pace. Sales of the AT-101 commenced in October 2002 in Japan and in February 2003 in the United States. QTM Incorporated (“QTM”), an FDA registered manufacturer located in Oldsmar, Florida, manufactured the device, which was built in accordance with ISO and current Good Manufacturing Practices. As discussed above, we ceased manufacturing and selling the AT-101 in the United States in January 2005 as we began development of the Exer-Rest AT. We continued selling our existing inventory of AT-101 devices overseas until the Exer-Rest AT became available in October 2007, at which time we discontinued marketing of the AT-101.

 

15
 

 

NON-INVASIVE MONITORING SYSTEMS, INC

 

The Exer-Rest AT is based upon the design and concept of the AT-101, but has the dimensions and appearance of a commercial extra long twin bed. The Exer-Rest AT, which was also manufactured by QTM until we stopped production in July 2009, weighs about half as much as the AT-101, has a much more efficient and less costly drive mechanism, has a much lower selling price than did the AT-101 and is designed such that the user can utilize and operate it without assistance. The wired hand held controller provides digital values for speed, travel and time, rather than analog values for speed and arbitrary force values as in the AT-101. Sales of the Exer-Rest AT began outside the United States in October 2007 and in the United States in February 2009. We discontinued manufacturing of the Exer-Rest AT in July 2009, and we expect to utilize our remaining inventory of these units primarily for research purposes.

 

The Exer-Rest AT3800 and Exer-Rest AT4700, which were manufactured for us by Sing Lin prior to the termination of our agreement with them, are next generation versions of the Exer-Rest AT and further advance the acceleration therapeutic platform technology. The AT3800 (38” wide) and AT4700 (47” wide) models combine improved drive technology for quieter operation, a more comfortable “memory-foam” mattress, more convenient operation with a multi-function wireless remote and a more streamlined look to improve the WBPA experience. Sales of the Exer-Rest AT3800 and Exer-Rest AT4700 platforms began outside the United States in October 2008, and U.S. sales commenced in February 2009.

 

LifeShirt®

 

The LifeShirt is a patented Wearable Physiological Computer that incorporates transducers, electrodes and sensors into a sleeveless garment. These sensors transmit vital and physiological signs to a miniaturized, battery-powered, electronic module which saves the raw waveforms and digital data to the compact flash memory of a Personal Digital Assistant (“PDA”) attached to the LifeShirt. Users of the LifeShirt can enter symptoms (with intensity), mood and medication information directly into the PDA for integration with the physiologic information collected by the LifeShirt garment. The flash memory can then be removed from the LifeShirt and the data uploaded and converted into minute-by-minute median trends of more than 30 physical and emotional signs of health and disease. Vital and physiological signs can therefore be obtained non-invasively, continuously, cheaply and reliably with the comfortably worn LifeShirt garment system while resting, exercising, working or sleeping. The LifeShirt was sold exclusively by VivoMetrics, but has not been marketed since VivoMetrics ceased operations in July 2009. Under VivoMetrics’ approved bankruptcy plan of reorganization, our license with VivoMetrics was assigned to another company; however, there can be no assurance as to the future amount of LifeShirt sales, if any, that may result from this license.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations set forth below under “Results of Operations” and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to royalties, inventory, tooling and equipment and contingencies. The Company’s accounting policy for loss contingencies complies with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 450-20-25-2. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. A more detailed discussion on the application of these and other accounting policies can be found in Note 2 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements set forth in Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2012. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Results of Operations

 

In January 2005, we began developing the Exer-Rest line of acceleration therapeutic platforms, which were designed to be more efficient and less expensive than the original AT-101 platform. The Exer-Rest AT platform was first available for delivery to certain locations outside of the United States in October 2007. Our newest platforms, the Exer-Rest AT3800 and AT4700, which we developed under our former agreement with Sing Lin, became available for sale in October 2008. In January 2009, the Exer-Rest line of therapeutic platforms was registered by the FDA in the United States as Class I (Exempt) Medical Devices. We began our US and international sales activity with aggressive marketing and promotional pricing beginning in February 2009. We opened our first demonstration and therapy center in Toronto, Canada in April 2009; however we closed that facility in January 2010 to focus our marketing and sales efforts on healthcare providers as well as individuals. We currently market the Exer-Rest to hospitals, cardiac rehabilitation clinics, chiropractic and physical therapy centers, senior living communities and other healthcare providers, as well as to their patients, professional athletes and other individuals.

NON-INVASIVE MONITORING SYSTEMS, INC

 

Three months ended October 31, 2012 compared to three months ended October 31, 2011

 

Revenues. Total revenues decreased from $64,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2011, to $49,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2012. This $15,000 decrease resulted from a $17,000 decrease in royalty revenues partially offset by a $2,000 increase in product sales.

 

Exer-Rest platform unit sales during the three months ended October 31, 2012 increased approximately 33% over the three months ended October 31, 2011.

 

Royalties from SensorMedics decreased $17,000 to $15,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2012 from $32,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2011. This decrease was primarily a result of lower product sales. As discussed above, there can be no assurance that we will receive any future royalties from the assignment of our license with VivoMetrics.

 

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales for the three months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011 was $11,000 and $9,000, respectively. This $2,000 increase was primarily related to the increase in number of units sold in the first three months of the 2012 fiscal year.

 

Selling, general and administrative costs and expenses. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) costs and expenses decreased to $119,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2012 from $173,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2011. This $54,000 decrease was primarily attributable to decreases in stock-based compensation expense, payroll expenses, depreciation expense, insurance expense, legal and audit related costs. SG&A costs and expenses include stock-based compensation expense, which totaled $4,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2012, as compared to $8,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2011.

 

Research and development costs and expenses. Research and development (“R&D”) costs and expenses decreased to $4,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2012 from $7,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2011, a decrease of $3,000. The higher costs in the three months ended October 31, 2011 related primarily to costs associated with the commencement of certain clinical trials.

 

Total operating costs and expenses. Total operating costs and expenses decreased $55,000 to $134,000 from $189,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. This decrease was primarily attributable to the lower SG&A and R&D costs and expenses discussed above.

 

Other Income (expense). Other expense was $0 and $22,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011 respectively. This $22,000 decrease was attributable to foreign currency exchange loss incurred in the three months ended October 31, 2011.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company’s operations have been primarily financed through private sales of its equity securities and advances under Credit Facility and Promissory Notes. At October 31, 2012, we had approximately $51,000 of cash and negative working capital of approximately $1.1 million. If we are not able to generate significant additional revenue, we will be required to obtain additional external financing through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or collaborative agreements to continue operations. No assurance can be given that such additional financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all. Our ability to sell additional shares of our stock and/or borrow cash could be materially adversely affected by the current climate in the global equity and credit markets. Current economic conditions have been, and continue to be, volatile and continued instability in these market conditions may limit our ability to access the capital necessary to fund and grow our business and to replace, in a timely manner, maturing liabilities. Additionally, the sales of equity or convertible debt securities may result in dilution to our stockholders.

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $5,000 and $6,000 for three months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. This $1,000 decrease was principally due to fluctuations in normal business for the three months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011.

 

No cash was used or provided by investing activities for three months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $0 and $50,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, primarily from advances under the notes payable described in Note 6 to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Under our now-terminated agreement with Sing Lin, we were committed to purchase approximately $2.6 million of Exer-Rest units within one year of acceptance of the final product, which acceptance occurred in September 2008, and an additional $4.1 million and $8.8 million of products in the second and third years following acceptance of the final product, respectively. Under the agreement, we were required to pay a portion of the product purchase price at the time production orders were placed, with the balance due upon delivery. Through October 31, 2012, we paid Sing Lin $1.7 million in connection with orders placed through that date. As of October 31, 2012, we had not placed orders sufficient to satisfy the first-year or second-year purchase obligations under the agreement. We notified Sing Lin in June 2010 that we were terminating the agreement effective September 2010, and Sing Lin in July 2010 demanded that we place orders sufficient to fulfill the three year minimum purchase obligations in the agreement. There can be no assurance that Sing Lin will not attempt to enforce its remedies against us, or pursue other potential remedies. If Sing Lin seeks to enforce remedies against us, any such remedies could have a material adverse effect on our business, liquidity and results of operations. As of October 31, 2012, the Company had payables due to Sing Lin of approximately $41,000.

On March 31, 2010, we entered into a new Note and Security Agreement with Frost Gamma Investments Trust, a trust controlled by Dr. Phillip Frost, which beneficially owns in excess of 10% of our common stock, and Hsu Gamma Hsu Gamma Investments, LP, an entity controlled by our Chairman (together, the “Lenders”), pursuant to which the Lenders have provided a revolving credit line (the “Credit Facility”) in the aggregate principal amount of up to $1.0 million, secured by all of our personal property. We are permitted to borrow and reborrow from time to time under the Credit Facility until July 31, 2013 (the “Credit Facility Maturity Date”). The interest rate payable on amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility is 11% per annum, and increases to 16% per annum after the Credit Facility Maturity Date or after an event of default. All amounts owing under the Credit Facility are required to be repaid by the Credit Facility Maturity Date, and amounts outstanding are prepayable at any time. As of October 31, 2012, we had drawn an aggregate of $1,000,000 under the Credit Facility.

 

2011 Promissory Notes. On September 12, 2011, the Company entered into two Promissory Notes in the principal amount of $50,000 each with Frost Gamma Investments Trust, a trust controlled by Dr. Phillip Frost, which beneficially owns in excess of 10% of the Company’s common stock, and with an unrelated third party for a total of $100,000. The interest rate payable by NIMS on both the Frost Gamma Note and the unrelated third party note is 11% per annum, payable on the maturity date of September 12, 2014. The Company may prepay either or both notes without premium or penalty.

 

2012 Promissory Notes. On May 30, 2012, the Company entered into a Promissory Note in the principal amount of $50,000 with Hsu Gamma Investments, L.P. (“Hsu Gamma”), an entity controlled by NIMS’ Chairman of the Board and Interim Chief Executive Officer, Jane H. Hsiao, (the “Hsu Gamma Note”). The interest rate payable by NIMS on the Hsu Gamma Note is 11% per annum, payable on the maturity date of September 12, 2014. The Hsu Gamma Note may be prepaid without premium or penalty.

 

As of December 4, 2012, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $23,000, and did not have any further funding available under the Credit Facility. If we are unable to generate significant revenues from sales of Exer-Rest platforms, we will have insufficient funds to repay our existing debt and continue operations without raising additional capital. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise such additional capital on terms acceptable to us or at all. This uncertainty, along with the Company’s limited remaining cash balances, raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

Not required for smaller reporting companies as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of October 31, 2012 were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

 

There were no material changes in our internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that could materially affect, or are reasonably likely to affect, our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended October 31, 2012. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
