CardioGenics Holdings Inc.

(A Development Stage Company)

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

January 31, 2013 and 2012


 

 

1.Nature of Business

 

CardioGenics Inc. (“CardioGenics”) was incorporated on November 20, 1997 in the Province of Ontario, Canada, and carries on the business of development and commercialization of diagnostic test products to the In Vitro Diagnostics testing market. CardioGenics has several test products that are in various stages of development.

 

CardioGenics’ business is that of a development-stage company, with a limited history of operations and whose revenues, to date, have been primarily comprised of grant revenue and Scientific Research Tax Credits from government agencies. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining regulatory approval for the marketing of any of the existing or future products that the Company will succeed in developing.

 

On October 27, 2009, the name of the Company was changed from JAG Media Holdings, Inc. to CardioGenics Holdings, Inc.

 

2.Basis of Presentation

 

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the condensed interim consolidated financial position of CardioGenics Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP”) as of January 31, 2013, their results of operations for the three months ended January 31 2013 and 2012, and the period from November 20, 1997 (date of inception) to January 31, 2013, changes in deficiency for the three months ended January 31, 2013 and cash flows for the three months ended January 31 2013 and 2012, and the period from November 20, 1997 (date of inception) to January 31, 2013. CardioGenics Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries are referred to together herein as the “Company”. Pursuant to rules and regulations of the SEC, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted from these consolidated financial statements unless significant changes have taken place since the end of the most recent fiscal year. Accordingly, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, notes to consolidated financial statements and the other information in the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company as of October 31, 2012 and 2011 (the “Audited Financial Statements”) included in the Company’s Form 10-K that was previously filed with the SEC on January 29, 2013 and from which the October 31, 2012 consolidated balance sheet was derived.

 

The results of the Company’s operations for the three months ended January 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year ending October 31, 2013.

 

The accompanying condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.

 

The Company has incurred operating losses and has experienced negative cash flows from operations since inception. The Company has an accumulated deficit at January 31, 2013 of approximately $42.3 million. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern. The Company has funded its activities to date almost exclusively from debt and equity financings. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

CardioGenics Holdings Inc.

(A Development Stage Company)

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

January 31, 2013 and 2012


 

The Company will continue to require substantial funds to continue research and development, including preclinical studies and clinical trials of its products, and to commence sales and marketing efforts, if the FDA and other regulatory approvals are obtained. In order to meet its operating cash flow requirements Management’s plans include financing activities such as private placements of its common stock and issuances of convertible debt instruments. Management is also actively pursuing industry collaboration activities including product licensing and specific project financing.

 

While the Company believes it will be successful in obtaining the necessary financing to fund its operations, meet revenue projections and manage costs, there are no assurances that such additional funding will be achieved and that it will succeed in its future operations. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

 

3.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
   
  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

  

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. ASU 2011-11 requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position, and to allow investors to better compare financial statements prepared under U.S. GAAP with financial statements prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The new standards are effective for annual periods beginning January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. Retrospective application is required. The Company will implement the provisions of ASU 2011-11 as of November 1, 2013.

 

In February 2013, the FASB the issued guidance requiring disclosure of amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present either on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For amounts not reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. This guidance is effective prospectively for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2013. The Company believes that the impact of this standard will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

Derivative Instruments

 

The Company’s derivative liabilities are related to embedded conversion features of the Notes Payable. For derivative instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings each reporting period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes model to value the derivative instruments at inception and subsequent valuation dates and the value is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not the net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within twelve months of the balance sheet date.

4.Income Taxes

 

Based on the Company’s evaluation, management has concluded that there are no significant tax positions requiring recognition in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company has incurred losses in Canada since inception, which have generated net operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes. The net operating loss carryforwards arising from Canadian sources as of January 31, 2013 approximated $6,533,000 (2012 - $6,025,000) which will expire from 2014 through 2032. All fiscal years as originally filed have been assessed. Claims relating to research and development credits are open for review for the fiscal years ended October 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008 and 2007 and July 2009.

 

As of January 31, 2013, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards from US sources of approximately $40,763,000 available to reduce future Federal taxable income which will expire from 2019 through 2032. Returns for the years 2008 through 2012 are yet to be filed.

 

For the three months ended January 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company’s effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate principally due to the net operating losses for which no benefit was recorded.

 

 

 

5.Due to Shareholders

 

During the three months ended January 31, 2013, two shareholder/directors advanced $200,000 to the Company. The amount due to shareholders is due on demand and carries interest at 10% per annum. No interest has been accrued to date.

 

6.Notes Payable

 

On November 19, 2012, the Company entered into an agreement (“Line”) with JMJ Financial (“Lender”) whereby the Company may borrow up to $350,000 from the Lender in increments of $50,000. The Line is subject to an original issue discount of $50,000. Advances under the Line (“Notes”) have a maturity date of one year from the date of the advance. If the advance is repaid within three months the advance is interest free. If not repaid within three months, the advance may not be repaid before maturity and carries interest at 5%. The Lender has the right at any time to convert all or part of the outstanding principal and accrued interest (and any other fees) into shares of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the Company at a price equal to the lesser of $0.23 and 60% of the lowest trade price in the 25 trading days previous to the conversion. Unless agreed in writing by the parties, at no time will the Lender convert any amount owing under the Line into common stock that would result in the Lender owing more than 4.99% of the common stock outstanding.

 

A summary of the Notes at January 31, 2013 is as follows:

   January 31,
2013
   October 31,
2012

As described in further detail in Note 7, “Derivative Liabilities”, the Company determines the fair value of the embedded derivatives and records them as a discount to the Notes and as a derivative liability. Upon conversion of the Notes to Common Stock, any remaining unamortized discount is charged to financing expense.

 

7.Derivative Liabilities

 

Convertible notes- embedded conversion features

 

The Notes meet the definition of a hybrid instrument, as defined in ASC 815. The hybrid instrument is comprised of a i) a debt instrument, as the host contract and ii) an option to convert the debentures into common stock of the Company, as an embedded derivative. The embedded derivatives derive their value based on the underlying fair value of the Company’s common stock. The embedded derivatives are not clearly and closely related to the underlying host debt instrument since the economic characteristics and risk associated with these derivatives are based on the common stock fair value.

 

The Company determines the fair value of the embedded derivatives and records them as a discount to the Notes and a derivative liability. The Company has recognized a derivative liability of $50,000 at January 31, 2013. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of the embedded derivative are immediately recognized in earnings and classified as a gain or loss on the embedded derivative financial instrument in the accompanying statements of operations. There was no change in the fair value for the three months ended January 31, 2013.

 

The Company estimated the fair value of the embedded derivatives using a Black Scholes model with the following assumptions: conversion price $0.12 per share according to the agreements; risk free interest rate of 1.76%; expected life of 1 year; expected dividend of zero; a volatility factor of 124%, as of as of January 31, 2013. The expected lives of the instruments are equal to the contractual term of the conversion option. The expected volatility is based on the historical price volatility of the Company’s common stock. The risk-free interest rate represents the U.S. Treasury constant maturities rate for the expected life of the related conversion option. The dividend yield represents anticipated cash dividends to be paid over the expected life of the conversion option.

  

8.Fair Value Measurements

 

As defined by the ASC, fair value measurements and disclosures establish a hierarchy that prioritizes fair value measurements based on the type of inputs used for the various valuation techniques (market approach, income approach and cost approach). The levels of hierarchy are described below:

 

·Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

  

·Level 2: Inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; these include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly-quoted intervals.

·Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity.

 

The following table summarizes the financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of January 31, 2013, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value:

10.Issuance of Common Stock

 

On January 17, 2013, the Company’s Articles of Incorporation were amended to increase the total number of common and preferred shares authorized for issuance from 65,000,000 shares to 150,000,000 shares and 5,000,000 shares to 50,000,000, respectively, par value $0.00001 per share.

 

During the three months ended January 31, 2013, the Company issued no common shares.

 

12.Net Loss per Share

 

The following table sets forth the computation of weighted-average shares outstanding for calculating basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS):

 

   Three Months Ended
January 31,
 
   2013   2012 
         
Weighted-average shares - basic   56,676,166    55,626,166 
Effect of dilutive securities        
Weighted-average shares - diluted   56,676,166    55,626,166 

 

Basic earnings per share “EPS” and diluted EPS for the three months ended January 31, 2013 and 2012 have been computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders for each respective period by the weighted-average shares outstanding during that period. All outstanding options, warrants and shares to be issued upon the exercise of the outstanding options and warrants representing 6,317,085 and 9,834,969 incremental shares respectively have been excluded from the three months ended January 31, 2013 and 2012 computation of diluted EPS as they are antidilutive given the net losses generated.

 

13.Commitments and Contingencies

 

Lawsuits

On April 22, 2009, the Company was served with a statement of claim from a former employee claiming compensation for wrongful dismissal and ancillary causes of action including payment of monies in realization of his investment in the Company, with an aggregate claim of $514,000. The Company considers all the claims to be without any merit, has already delivered a statement of defense and intends to vigorously defend the action. If the matter eventually proceeds to trial, the Company does not expect to be found liable on any ground or for any cause of action.

15.Subsequent Event

 

In February 2013, the shareholders loans were exchanged on a dollar for dollar basis for convertible debenture units. Each unit includes a debenture having a term of three years, bearing interest at 10%, and a warrant having a term of three years.The debentures are convertible at any time into common shares of the Company’s stock at a price of $0.25 per share. The warrants entitle the holder to purchase an equal number of common shares of the Company’s stock at a price of $0.25 per share exercisable at any time during the term of the warrant.

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

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The preparation of these condensed consolidated 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 accounts receivable, equipment, stock-based compensation, income taxes and contingencies. 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. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

The accounting policies and estimates used as of October 31, 2012, as outlined in our previously filed Form 10-K, have been applied consistently for the three months ended January 31, 2013.

 

Related Party Transactions

 

During the period two shareholder/directors advanced $200,000 to the Company.

 

Off-Balance Sheet arrangements

 

We are not party to any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Revenues

 

During the three months ended January 31, 2013 and 2012 we generated revenues 2013 - $0 and 2012 - $1,136 from sales of paramagnetic beads.

 

 

Operating expenses

 

Operating expenses include the costs to a) develop and patent a method for controlling the delivery of compounds to a chemical reaction; b) developing the QL Care Analyzer, a small, automated, robust and proprietary point of care testing device; and, c) customizing paramagnetic beads through our proprietary method which improves their light collection. In addition, the Company is in the process of adapting test products for the POC disposable, single-use cartridge-format. Detailed manufacturing specifications and costing have been created and custom manufacturers have been sourced.

 

General and administrative expenses

 

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation to officers, occupancy costs, professional fees, listing costs and other office expenses. The decrease in general and administrative expenses is attributable primarily to a decrease in consulting fees.

 

Research and product development, net of investment tax credits

 

Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and wages paid to officers and employees engaged in those activities and supplies consumed therefor. The decrease in research and development expenses is attributed primarily to a decrease in staff engaged in those activities in the current quarter vs. the same period in the prior year.

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We have not generated significant revenues since inception. We incurred a net loss of approximately $233,000 and a cash flow deficiency from operating activities of approximately $90,000 for the three months ended January 31, 2013. We have not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover our operating costs and allow us to continue as a going concern.  We have funded our activities to date almost exclusively from debt and equity financings.  These matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

We will continue to require substantial funds to continue research and development, including preclinical studies and clinical trials of our products, and to commence sales and marketing efforts.  Our plans include financing activities such as private placements of our common stock and issuances of convertible debt instruments.  We are also actively pursuing industry collaboration activities including product licensing and specific project financing.

  

We believe we will be successful in obtaining the necessary financing to fund our operations, meet revenue projections and manage costs; however, there are no assurances that such additional funding will be achieved and that we will succeed in our future operations.

 

Seasonality

 

We do not believe that our business is subject to seasonal trends or inflation. On an ongoing basis, we will attempt to minimize any effect of inflation on our operating results by controlling operating costs and whenever possible, seeking to insure that subscription rates reflect increases in costs due to inflation.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The FASB had issued certain accounting pronouncements as of January 31, 2013 that will become effective in subsequent periods; however, we do not believe that any of those pronouncements would have significantly affected our financial accounting measurements or disclosures had they been in effect during the three months ended January 31, 2013 and 2012 or that they will have a significant effect at the time they become effective.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended January 31, 2013, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”). Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of January 31, 2013.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting (as defined in the Exchange Act) to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. The design and operation of a control system must also reflect that there are resource constraints and management is necessarily required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls.

 

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting for the quarter ended January 31, 2013 based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on such assessment, our management concluded that during the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting were not effective. Management has identified the following material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting:

 

  •  lack of documented policies and procedures;

 

  there is no effective separation of duties, which includes monitoring controls, between the members of management; and,

 

  lack of resources to account for complex and unusual transactions.

 

Management is currently evaluating what steps, if any, can be taken in order to address these material weaknesses in light of our current management structure.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

During the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2013, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
