Notes to condensed financial statements (unaudited)

 

June 30, 2014

 

Note A - Basis of Reporting

 

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed financial statements of American Bio Medica Corporation (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these unaudited interim financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statement presentation. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and related notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. In the opinion of management, the interim condensed financial statements include all normal, recurring adjustments which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the Company at June 30, 2014, the results of our operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, and cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013.

 

Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. Amounts at December 31, 2013 are derived from our audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, there were no significant changes to our critical accounting policies, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

 

The preparation of these interim condensed financial statements requires the Company 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 estimates, including those related to product returns, bad debts, inventories, income taxes, warranty obligations, contingencies and litigation. We base 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.

 

These unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our independent registered public accounting firm’s report on the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, contained an explanatory paragraph regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. As of the date of this report, our current cash balances, together with cash generated from future operations and amounts available under current credit facilities may not be sufficient to fund operations for the next 12 months if sales levels do not improve (and an inability to market and sell our point of collection oral fluid drug tests in the Workplace market is negatively impacting our revenues). If cash generated from operations is not sufficient to satisfy our working capital and capital expenditure requirements, we will be required to sell additional equity or obtain additional credit facilities. There is no assurance that such financing will be available or that we will be able to complete financing on satisfactory terms, if at all.

 

Recent Accounting Standards

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period to confirm to the presentation of the current period.

 

In June 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The update gives entities a single comprehensive model to use in reporting information about the amount and timing of revenue resulting from contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The proposed ASU, which would apply to any entity that enters into contracts to provide goods or services, would supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. Additionally, the update would supersede some cost guidance included in Subtopic 605-35, Revenue Recognition – Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts. The update removes inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements and provides a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues and more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements. In addition, the update improves comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions, and capital markets and simplifies the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer. The update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

Note B – Inventory

 

Inventory is comprised of the following:

 

   June 30, 2014   December 31, 2013 
         
Raw Materials  $1,434,000   $1,434,000 
Work In Process   559,000    758,000 
Finished Goods   349,000    278,000 
Allowance for slow moving and obsolete inventory   (413,000)   (399,000)
   $1,929,000   $2,071,000 

 

Note C – Net Loss Per Common Share

 

Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted net loss per common share includes the weighted average dilutive effect of stock options and warrants. Potential common shares outstanding as of June 30, 2014 and 2013:

 

   June 30, 2014   June 30, 2013 
Warrants   3,224,000    2,435,000 
Options   2,579,000    3,727,000 

 

The number of securities not included in the diluted net loss per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 (because the effect would have been anti-dilutive) were 5,803,000 and 6,162,000, respectively.

 

Note D – Litigation/Legal Matters

 

We received a warning letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in July 2009 that alleged we were marketing our point of collection oral fluid drug test, OralStat®, in workplace settings without marketing clearance or approval. A warning letter is considered by FDA to be informal and advisory. While a warning letter communicates FDA’s position on a matter it does not commit the FDA to taking enforcement action. We communicated to the FDA our belief (based on legal opinion) that marketing clearance was not required in non-clinical markets. The FDA continued to disagree with our interpretation of FDA regulations related to medical devices, and the FDA continued to assert jurisdiction of drug testing performed in the workplace. We also advised FDA that the Company was willing to obtain marketing clearance but that specific technical and scientific issues existed when attempting to utilize FDA’s draft guidance for our OralStat (because the draft guidance was written for urine drug tests). Nevertheless, the Company was unable to reach a consensus with the FDA on neither the jurisdiction issue nor the technical issues.

 

On July 10, 2012, we entered into a Consent Decree of Permanent Injunction (the “Consent Decree”) with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) related to a July 2009 warning letter we received from FDA. The warning letter was related to our marketing OralStat® in the workplace market without 510(k) marketing clearance. We disagreed (based on a legal opinion) that FDA had legal jurisdiction over the workplace drug testing market but FDA continued to disagree with the Company and continued to assert jurisdiction. Under the terms of the Consent Decree, we were allowed to continue to market OralStat in the workplace market while we took action to obtain a 510(k) marketing clearance. On September 3, 2013, we filed our application for 510(k) marketing clearance as required under the Consent Decree, and on September 18, 2013 we were notified that an administrative acceptance review was conducted, and our application was found to contain all of the necessary elements and information needed to proceed with the substantive review. In November 2013, we were informed that the FDA determined that our OralStat was not substantially equivalent to the predicate market device. In accordance with the Consent Decree, we ceased marketing and selling OralStat to the workplace (non-forensic) market. We are currently evaluating our options related to sale of the OralStat in the (U.S.) Workplace market.

Note E – Line of Credit and Debt

 

Our Line of Credit and Debt consisted of the following as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

Collateral Monitoring Fee of $2,500 due on the first day of each month.
Success fee of $175,000 if Imperium terminates due to an event of default, or if we terminate and pre-pay all amounts due to Imperium prior to the stated expiration date of January 16, 2016.
  $914,000   $1,180,000

Less debt discount (Debentures and Line of Credit financings)   (155,000)   (253,000)
Total debt  $1,912,000   $2,213,000 

 

Line of Credit with Imperium Commercial Finance, LLC (“Imperium”)

 

On January 16, 2013 (the “Imperium Closing Date”), we entered into a 3-year Loan and Security Agreement (“LSA”) with Imperium, a new Senior Lender, to refinance our Line of Credit with Medallion Financial Corp (“Medallion”), see below for information on the Medallion Line of Credit.

 

Under the LSA, Imperium agreed to provide the Company with a revolving loan facility (the “Imperium Line of Credit”), which is secured by a first security interest in all of our receivables, inventory, and intellectual property rights along with a second security interest in our machinery and equipment (together the “Collateral”). The Maximum Funding Amount was originally $1,500,000 but in late July 2013, we were notified that Imperium was reducing the Maximum Funding Amount to $1,100,000 (however, we had to continue to maintain minimum Net Borrowing Availability of $100,000 so in essence the maximum amount available under the Imperium Line of Credit was lowered to $1,000,000).

 

Originally, the borrowing base was comprised of: 85% of eligible accounts receivables (excluding, without limitation, receivables remaining unpaid for more than 90 days from invoice date or 60 days from due date, contra receivables, and affiliated receivables), up to the lesser of 60% of eligible finished goods inventory at cost or 75% of appraised net orderly liquidation value of inventory, and a receivable dilution rate of less than 5% (the “Borrowing Base”).

On March 6, 2014, we were notified that Imperium was amending the Borrowing Base of the Imperium Line of Credit. More specifically, the amount available under the Imperium Line of Credit was capped to the lower of (i) $1,000,000, or (ii) 100% of the eligible outstanding accounts receivable. As of the date of this report, the Borrowing Base of the Imperium Line of Credit is based solely on Eligible Receivables.

 

In addition to the Imperium Line of Credit, the Imperium facility originally included a discretionary Supplemental Advance of up to $500,000 (the “Imperium Supplemental Advance”). Supplemental advances, once repaid, could not be re-borrowed, and advances were secured with the same Collateral as the Imperium Line of Credit. In late July 2013, we were notified that no further advances would be made under the Imperium Supplemental Advance.

 

On the Imperium Closing Date, we paid a closing fee of $10,000 to Imperium, and granted Imperium a 7-year warrant to purchase 2,000,000 common shares of the Company at an exercise price of $0.18 (the “Imperium Warrants”). We also paid an early termination fee of $25,000 to Medallion on the Imperium Closing Date. We also paid a finder’s fee of 3% of the gross proceeds from the Imperium financing, or $60,000, to Monarch Capital Group, LLC (Monarch), and issued Monarch a 5-year warrant to purchase 60,000 common shares of the Company at an exercise price of $0.18 (the “Monarch Warrant”).

 

So long as any obligations are due to Imperium, we must maintain certain minimum EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes Depreciation and Amortization) requirements. More specifically, we must have had EBITDA of not less than (a) $25,000 for the Fiscal Quarter ended on or about March 31, 2013, (b) $100,000 for the Fiscal Quarter ended on or about June 30, 2013, (c) $200,000 for the Fiscal Quarter ending on or about September 30, 2013, and (d) $300,000 for the Fiscal Quarter ending on or about December 31, 2013 and for each of the Fiscal Quarters thereafter. We did not comply with the EBITDA covenant in any of the fiscal quarters listed, including the Second Quarter of 2014 (to be measured upon the filing of this Form 10-Q). This does constitute an event of default, and in an event of default, which also includes but is not limited to, our failure to make any payment when due, the interest rate on the Imperium Line of Credit can be increased by 4% for as long as the event of default occurs. Imperium’s other remedies include, but are not limited to, termination or suspension of Imperium’s obligation to make further advances to the Company, declaration of all amounts owed to Imperium due and payable. The increase in interest rate, given our current advances under the Imperium Line of Credit would not be material, however, if Imperium were to suspend or terminate further advances, or declare all amounts due and payable, this would have a material adverse effect on our business and negatively impact our ability to continue operations.

 

On May 20, 2013, Imperium waived the EBITDA requirement for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, and Imperium was paid $10,000 for costs related to account review. We have had discussions with Imperium about EBITDA non-compliance and any further actions they may take, however, as of the date of this report, although Imperium has not enforced any of its default remedies; no additional formal waivers have been issued.

 

We incurred $435,000 in costs related to the Imperium Line of Credit, which included the costs noted previously as well as $39,000 to Imperium for their legal fees, $2,000 for the Company’s legal fees, $9,000 in capitalized deferred financing costs and $290,000 as debt discount associated with the warrants issued to Imperium and Monarch. With the exception of the early termination fee of $25,000 paid to Medallion (which was fully recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2013), these costs are being amortized over the term of the facility (3 years). We recognized $34,000 of these costs in the three months ended June 30, 2014 and $68,000 of these costs in the six months ended June 30, 2014. We recognized $59,000 of these costs in the three months ended June 30, 2013, and $143,000 in costs in the six months ended June 30, 2013.

 

We incurred $52,000 and $56,000 in interest expense in the six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively. We incurred $25,000 and $32,000 in interest expense in the three months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively.

 

As of June 30, 2014, the balance on the Imperium Line of Credit was $714,000, and the balance on the supplemental advance was $200,000, for a total loan balance of $914,000. As of June 30, 2014, additional loan availability on the line of credit was $115,000 and since Imperium suspended further advances under the Supplemental Advance, there was $0 in availability under the Supplemental Advance, for a total Loan Availability of $115,000 at June 30, 2014. The balance on the Imperium Line of Credit was $1,180,000 at December 31, 2013.There was a debt discount recorded in the amount of $145,000 and $193,000 for June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

 

The Imperium Line of Credit is used for working capital and general corporate purposes, and the Imperium Supplemental Advance was used for costs associated with obtaining marketing clearance of our oral fluid products and costs associated with other new market opportunities.

Loan and Security Agreement with Medallion

 

On April 20, 2012 (the “Medallion Closing Date”), we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Medallion to refinance its Line of Credit with a former senior lender, Rosenthal and Rosenthal, Inc. (“Rosenthal”).

 

Under the Loan Agreement, Medallion provided the Company with up to $1,000,000 under a revolving secured line of credit (the “Medallion Line of Credit”), which was secured by a first security interest in all of our receivables, inventory, and intellectual property rights along with a second security interest in our machinery and equipment. The maximum amount available under the Medallion Line of Credit was subject to an Advance Rate that consisted of: 85% of eligible accounts receivable and up to 30% of eligible inventory (not to exceed $150,000). We did incur $8,000 in interest expense in the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. The amount outstanding on the Medallion Line of Credit as of June 30, 2014 was $0 since, all indebtedness due to Medallion was paid in full and Medallion’s security interest in our assets were terminated on January 16, 2013.

 

First Niagara Bank: Mortgage Consolidation Loan

 

On March 8, 2013, we entered into a Second Amendment to Loan Agreement (the “Second Mortgage Consolidation Loan Amendment”) with First Niagara Bank (“First Niagara”). The Mortgage Consolidation Loan is secured by our facility in Kinderhook, New York as well as various pieces of machinery and equipment. Under the Second Mortgage Consolidation Loan Amendment, the Mortgage Consolidation Loan was recast into a 4-year fully amortizing note with a one-year term through March 1, 2014. The interest rate was increased from 8.25% to 9.25% and the monthly payment was reduced to $14,115 from $14,437. We were also required to make a principal reduction payment of $25,000 at the time of closing. All other terms of the Mortgage Consolidation Loan remained unchanged, including compliance with a covenant (measured monthly) to maintain a certain level of liquidity (defined as any combination of cash, marketable securities or borrowing availability under one or more credit facilities other than the Mortgage Consolidation Loan).

 

On April 28, 2014, we entered into a Third Amendment to Loan Agreement (the “Third Mortgage Consolidation Loan Amendment”) with First Niagara Bank. The Mortgage Consolidation Loan continues to be secured by our facility in Kinderhook, New York as well as various pieces of machinery and equipment. Under the Third Mortgage Consolidation Loan Amendment, the Mortgage Consolidation Loan was recast into a 3-year fully amortizing note through March 1, 2017. The interest rate of the amended facility was decreased from 9.25% to 8.25%, and the monthly payment was reduced from $14,115 to $13,199. We were required to pay First Niagara a renewal fee of 1% of the principal balance as of April 1, 2014, or $4,200. No principal reduction payment was required. All other terms of the Mortgage Consolidation Loan remained unchanged, including compliance with the covenant previously referenced.

 

The balance on the Mortgage Consolidation Loan was $410,000 at June 30, 2014 and $452,000 at December 31, 2013. Interest expense recognized in the six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2014 was $17,000 and $25,000, respectively. Interest expense recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013 was $ 10,000 and $13,000, respectively.

 

Debenture Financing

 

In August 2008, we completed an offering of Series A Debentures (“Series A Debentures”) and received gross proceeds of $750,000. The net proceeds of the offering of Series A Debentures were $631,000 after $54,000 of placement agent fees and expenses, legal and accounting fees of $63,000 and $2,000 of state filing fees.

 

2012 Series A Debenture Extension

 

The Series A Debentures matured on August 1, 2012. On July 25, 2012, we entered into another Placement Agent Agreement (the “Agent Agreement”) with Cantone. Under the terms of the Agent Agreement, Cantone acted as our exclusive placement agent in connection with an amendment of the Series A Debentures. Under the amendment, the term of Series A Debentures was extended to reflect a due date of August 1, 2013, and the interest rate during the extension period was increased from 10% to 15% per annum, due quarterly in arrears.

 

As compensation for their placement agent services, Cantone received a cash fee of 5% of the gross amount of existing Series A Debentures, or $37,500. Cantone also received 1% of the gross amount of Series A Debentures, or $7,500, as a non-accountable expense allowance and we reimbursed Cantone $5,000 in legal fees incurred in connection with the amendment of the Series A Debentures. These costs, totaling $50,000 were amortized over the term of the extension (12 months). We amortized $0 of this expense in six months ended June 30, 2014 and $31,000 of this expense in the six months ended June 30, 2013 (of which $6,000 was share-based payment expense). We amortized $0 in expense in the three months ended June 30, 2014 and $15,000 of this expense in the three months ended June 30, 2013 (of which $3,000 was share-based payment expense).

The warrants issued to Cantone (in connection with their services as placement agent in the original Series A Debenture financing) were also amended to reflect a purchase price of $0.17 per share and a new term of three (3) years. We incurred $12,000 in share based payment expense related to this amendment, which was fully expensed in the quarter ended September 30, 2012.

 

On July 30, 2012, we entered into a Bridge Loan Agreement and Note (the “Bridge Loan”) with Cantone Asset Management, LLC (“CAM”). The Bridge Loan was in the amount of $150,000 and was used to pay $100,000 to those Holders of Series A Debentures that did not wish to amend/extend the Series A Debentures and $50,000 was used to pay placement agent fees and expenses previously indicated. The maturity date of the Bridge Loan was August 1, 2013 bearing simple interest in advance of 15%. In addition to the interest, on August 1, 2012, we issued CAM 88,235 shares of restricted stock of the Company equal to 10% of the gross amount of existing Series A Debentures, or $15,000 using a value of $0.17 per common share.

 

On July 31, 2012, we entered into an Agreement to the Series A Debenture (the “Series A Debenture Amendment”) with thirty-two of the thirty-seven holders of Series A Debentures (the “Debenture Holders”) (representing $645,000 of Series A Debentures). As previously indicated, the Series A Debenture Amendment extended the due date of the Series A Debentures to August 1, 2013, and increased the interest rate to 15% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. All other terms of the Series A Debentures remained unchanged. Five of the Debenture Holders (representing $105,000 in Series A Debentures) did not wish to extend the Series A Debentures and we used proceeds of $100,000 from the Bridge Loan and $5,000 paid directly from the Company to pay principal amounts due to these non-extending Debenture Holders.

 

2013 Series A Debenture Extension

 

On October 7, 2013, we entered into a new Placement Agent Agreement (“2013 Agent Agreement”) with Cantone related to the further extension of the Series A Debentures, as amended, due August 1, 2013. Under the terms of the 2013 Agent Agreement, Cantone acted as our exclusive placement agent in connection with another amendment of the Series A Debentures. Under the amendment, the term of Series A Debentures was extended to reflect a due date of either February 1, 2014 or August 1, 2014, at the election of the Series A Debenture Holder. The interest rate during the extension period remains 15% per annum, due quarterly in arrears. All other terms of the Series A Debentures remain the same.

 

As compensation for their placement agent services, Cantone received 1) a cash fee of 5% ($39,750) of the gross amount ($795,000) of existing Series A Debentures and the CAM note combined, 2) a 3-year warrant to purchase 75,000 common shares at an exercise price of $0.14 (the average closing sale price of our common shares for the 5 days business days ending October 7, 2013), and 3) a non-accountable expense allowance paid with 115,000 restricted shares of our common stock (in lieu of cash). We also paid $4,000 in legal fees incurred by Cantone. These costs are being amortized over the term of the 12-month extension. We amortized $44,000 in costs in the six months ended June 30, 2014 and $0 in costs in the six months ended June 30, 2013 (as we did not enter into this extension until October 2013). We amortized $22,000 in costs in the three months ended June 30, 2014 and $0 in costs in the three months ended June 30, 2013 (as we did not enter into this extension until October 2013).

 

The fair value of the Cantone warrant is $10,000 and we recognized 100% of this expense on the date of the grant, or $10,000 in the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2013.

 

On October 7, 2013, we entered into a new Bridge Loan Agreement and Note (the “2013 Bridge Loan”) with CAM. The 2013 Bridge Loan is in the amount of $200,000 and was used to pay off the existing Bridge Loan with CAM ($150,000) and the remaining $50,000 was used to pay placement agent fees and expenses as previously indicated. Net proceeds of $6,250 were remitted to the Company. The 15% interest on the existing Bridge Loan of $150,000 was paid with 225,000 restricted shares of ABMC common stock.

 

The maturity date of the 2013 Bridge Loan is August 1, 2014, and it bears simple interest in advance of 15% that was paid in the form of 300,000 shares of restricted shares of ABMC common stock. In addition to the interest, as inducement to enter into the 2013 Bridge Loan, we issued 153,486 restricted shares of our common stock, and the we issued CAM a 3-year warrant to purchase 250,000 common shares at an exercise price of $0.14 (the average closing sale price of our common shares for the 5 days business days ending October 7, 2013). The warrants were 100% exercisable on the date of the grant. The fair value of the CAM warrant is $35,000 and we recognized 100% of this expense in the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2013.

On October 7, 2013, we entered into an Agreement to the Series A Debenture (the “2013 Series A Debenture Amendment”) with 30 of the 32 holders of Series A Debentures (the “Debenture Holders”) (representing $634,500 of Series A Debentures). One of the Debenture Holders (representing $10,500 in Series A Debentures) did not wish to extend and we used the net proceeds and cash on hand to pay the principal amount due to this Holder. One of the Debenture Holders transferred their investment to another existing Debenture Holder. As previously indicated, the extension period of either 6 or 12 months was at the election of the Debenture Holder. 27 of the 30 Debenture Holders (representing $543,500 of Series A Debentures) elected to extend for a period of 12 months. The other 3 (representing $91,000 in Series A Debentures) elected to extend for a period of 6 months. The 27 holders that elected to extend for a 12-month period were each issued a warrant to purchase 1 shares of common stock for each $1.00 that was extended. We issued 2-year warrants to purchase 543,500 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.14 (the average closing sale price of our common shares for the 5 days business days ending October 7, 2013). The fair value of the Debenture Holder warrants is $76,000 and we are amortizing this cost over the term of the Series A Debenture extension, or 12 months. We recognized $38,000 of this expense in the six months ended June 30, 2014 and $0 in expense in the six months ended June 30, 2013 (as we did not issue the warrants until October 2013). We recognized $19,000 of this expense in the three months ended June 30, 2014 and $0 in expense in the three months ended June 30, 2013 (as we did not issue the warrants until October 2013). As of June 30, 2014, there was $6,000 in unrecognized expense with 1 months remaining. We recognized $42,000 in interest expense in the six months ended June 30, 2014 and $60,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2013. We recognized $20,000 in interest expense in the three months ended June 30, 2014 and $30,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2013. We had $25,000 in accrued interest expense at June 30, 2014.

 

On February 7, 2014, we paid $91,000 to the 6-month extension Debenture Holders; therefore as of June 30, 2014, the amount due to Debenture Holders is $543,500. We recorded a debt discount in the amount of $12,000 and $60,000 for June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, related to securities issued in connection with the Series A Debentures.

Imperium Financing Stock Options

 

On January 16, 2013, as compensation for his execution of a Personal Guarantee required under the Imperium LSA, the Company’s (then) Chief Executive Officer, Stan Cipkowski (“Cipkowski”) was awarded an option grant representing 500,000 common shares of the Company under our 2001 Plan, at an exercise price of $0.15, the closing price of our common shares on January 16, 2013 (the “Cipkowski Imperium Stock Option”). The Cipkowski Imperium Stock Option originally vested over 36 months in equal installments. The fair value of the Cipkowski Imperium Stock Option is $73,000 and was estimated using the Black-Scholes pricing model. This share based payment expense was originally being amortized over the vesting period of 36 months, however, on November 1, 2013, we were notified of Mr. Cipkowski’s death. Under the terms of the Cipkowski Imperium Stock Option, any unvested portion of the stock option became immediately exercisable upon Mr. Cipkowski’s death. As a result, we are no longer amortizing the Cipkowski Imperium Stock Option; rather we recognized the remaining $54,000 in expense in the three months ended December 31, 2013.

On September 20, 2012, we issued 2 stock option grants to purchase 50,000 shares each (for a total of 100,000) of our common stock to 2 non-executive employees at an exercise price of $0.18, the closing price of our common shares on the date of the grant (“September 2012 Stock Options”). The September 2012 Stock Options vest over 36 months in installments as follows: 33,000 common shares on September 20, 2013, 33,000 common shares on September 20, 2014 and 34,000 common shares on September 20, 2015. The fair value of the September 2012 Stock Options is $18,000 and was estimated using the Black-Scholes pricing model. We are amortizing this share based payment expense over the vesting period of 36 months. We recognized $3,000 of this share-based payment expense in both the six months ended June 30, 2014 and in the six months ended June 30, 2013. We amortized $2,000 of this share-based payment expense in both the three months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2014, there was $7,000 in unrecognized share-based payment expense with 14 months remaining.

 

Medallion Line of Credit Stock Options

 

As a condition to the Medallion Line of Credit, Cipkowski and our (then) controller J. Duncan Urquhart (“Urquhart”) were each required to execute Validity Guarantees (the “Validity Guarantees”). Under the Validity Guarantees, Cipkowski and Urquhart provided representations and warranties with respect to the validity of our receivables as well as guaranteeing the accuracy of our reporting to Medallion related to our receivables. As compensation for their execution of the Validity Guarantees, on April 20, 2012, Cipkowski and Urquhart were each awarded an option grant representing 250,000 common shares under our 2001 Plan, at an exercise price of $0.18, the closing price of our common shares on the date of the grant. The option grants originally vested over 36 months. The fair value of the Cipkowski and Urquhart stock option grants was $45,000 each (for a total of $90,000), and was estimated utilizing the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

  

This share based payment expense was to be recognized over the vesting period of 36 months. However, on August 6, 2013, Urquhart was terminated from employment and 167,500 stock options (the unvested portion of his stock option grant) was cancelled and returned to the 2001 Plan. The share based payment expense of $13,000 recorded through August 2013 for these unvested options was reversed and no further expense incurred. 82,500 stock options (the vested portion) remained exercisable until November 6, 2013 under the terms of Urquhart’s stock option agreement, however the options were never exercised, and on November 7, 2013, the 82,500 remaining Urquhart options were cancelled. We amortized $0 in share-based payment expense in the six months ended June 30, 2014 and $8,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2013. We amortized $0 in share-based payment expense in the three months ended June 30, 2014 and $4,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2014, there was $0 in unrecognized share based payment expense with 0 months remaining related to the Urquhart grant.

On November 1, 2013, we were notified of Mr. Cipkowski’s death. Under the terms of the Cipkowski Medallion Stock Option, any unvested portion of the stock option became immediately exercisable upon Mr. Cipkowski’s death. As a result, we are no longer amortizing the Cipkowski Medallion Stock Option; rather we recognized the remaining $23,000 in expense in the three months ended December 31, 2013. We amortized $0 in share-based payment expense in the six months ended June 30, 2014 and $8,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2013. We amortized $0 in share-based payment expense in the three months ended June 30, 2014 and $4,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2014, there was $0 in unrecognized share based payment expense with 0 months remaining related to the Cipkowski grant.

 

As another condition to the financing, Edmund Jaskiewicz, our President and Chairman of the Board (“Jaskiewicz”) was required to execute another Subordination Agreement (“Subordination Agreement”) related to the Jaskiewicz Debt (the $124,000 currently owed to Jaskiewicz by the Company). Under the Subordination Agreement, the Jaskiewicz Debt was not payable, was junior in right to the Medallion Line of Credit and no payment could be accepted or retained by Jaskiewicz for the Jaskiewicz Debt unless and until we paid and satisfied in full any obligations to Medallion. As compensation for his execution of the Subordination Agreement, on April 20, 2012, Jaskiewicz was awarded an option grant representing 150,000 common shares of the Company under the 2001 Plan, at an exercise price of $0.18, the closing price of our common shares on the date of the grant. The option grant vests over 36 months as follows: 49,500 common shares on April 20, 2013, 49,500 common shares on April 20, 2014 and 51,000 common shares on April 20, 2015. The fair value of the Jaskiewicz stock option grant was estimated utilizing the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The value of the stock option grant totaled $27,000 and we are recognizing this share-based payment expense over the vesting period of 36 months. We recognized $4,000 of share-based payment expense in the both the six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013. We recognized $2,000 of share-based payment expense in both the three months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2014, there was $7,000 in unrecognized share based payment expense with 9 months remaining.

 

Warrants

 

We did not issue any warrants in the six or three months ended June 30, 2014. The following warrants were previously issued and were either fully or partially expensed in the six or three months ended June 30, 2014, or the six or three months ended June 30, 2013:

 

Imperium Warrants

 

On January 16, 2013, in connection with the Imperium Line of Credit, we granted Imperium a 7-year warrant to purchase 2,000,000 common shares of the Company at an exercise price of $0.18, the closing price of our common shares on January 16, 2013 (the “Imperium Warrant”). The Imperium Warrant was 100% (or 2,000,000 common shares) exercisable on the date of issuance. The fair value of the Imperium Warrant is $290,000 and was estimated using the Black-Scholes pricing model. We are capitalizing this cost as debt issuance costs amortized over the term of the Imperium LSA (3 years). We amortized $48,000 of this debt discount in both the six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013. We amortized $24,000 of this debt discount in both the three months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2014, there was $145,000 in unrecognized cost with 18 months remaining.

 

Monarch Capital LLC Warrants

 

On January 16, 2013, as part of their finder’s fee compensation, we issued Monarch Capital Group, LLC (“Monarch”) a 5-year warrant representing 3% of the Imperium Warrant, or a 5-year warrant to purchase 60,000 common shares of the Company, also at a strike price of $0.18, the closing price of our common shares on January 16, 2013 (the “Monarch Warrant”). The Monarch Warrant was 100% (or 60,000 common shares) exercisable on the date of issuance. The fair value of the Monarch Warrant is $9,000 and was estimated using the Black-Scholes pricing model. We are capitalizing this cost as deferred financing cost amortized over the term of the Imperium LSA, or over 36 months. We amortized $1,000 of this deferred financing cost in both the six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013. We amortized less than $1,000 in both the three months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2014, there was $4,000 in unrecognized costs with 18 months remaining.

Series A Debenture Holder Warrants

 

On October 7, 2013, the 27 Debenture Holders that elected to extend their Series A Debentures for a 12-month period were each issued a warrant to purchase 1 share of common stock for each $1.00 that was extended. We issued 2-year warrants to purchase 543,500 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.14 (the average closing sale price of our common shares for the 5 days business days ending October 7, 2013) to these 27 Holders (the “2013 Holder Warrants”). The fair value of the Debenture Holder warrants $76,000, and was estimated utilizing the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. We are amortizing this cost over the term of the Series A Debenture extension, or 12 months. We recognized $38,000 in expense in the six months ended June 30, 2014 and $0 in the six months ended June 30, 2013 (as the Debenture Holder warrants were not issued until October 2013. We recognized $19,000 in expense in the three months ended June 30, 2014 and $0 in the three months ended June 30, 2013 (as the Debenture Holder warrants were not issued until October 2013. As of June 30, 2014, there was $6,000 in unrecognized debt issuance expense with 1 month remaining.

 

Note G – Subsequent Events

 

Our Series A Debentures and Bridge Loan with Cantone Asset Management matured on August 1, 2014. As of the date of this report, we are unable to pay back the principal amount of $743,500 related to the Series A Debentures and Cantone Asset Management Bridge Loan (the “Debenture Debt”). We are however able to continue to make interest payments on the Debenture Debt. On July 30, 2014, we entered into a term sheet to engage CRI to solicit existing holders of the Debenture Debt (the “Holders”) to forbear from exercising remedies of default related to the non-payment of principal until February 1, 2015. The principal amount extended is dependent on the desire of the Holders to forbear. The Company can give no assurances that any or all of the Holders will grant the forbearance.

 

We will pay CRI a fee for assisting the Company in obtaining forbearance from the Holders in the amount of 1% in cash of principal amount held by Holders that agree to the forbearance, and 1% in restricted stock (using a price of $0.12 per share (which is the average closing price of the Company’s common shares for the last ten (10) preceding trading days) to determine the number of restricted shares to be issued. We are also reimbursing CRI's legal fees of $1,000.

 

As of the date of this report, we have received 19 Forbearance Agreements representing $571,250 of the $743,500 of Debenture Debt. We have been informed that one Holder does not wish to provide forbearance; therefore we will be paying principal in the amount of $20,250 to this Holder. We are in the process of obtaining the additional Forbearance Agreements representing the remaining $152,000 of Debenture Debt.

 

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

 

General

Overview/Plan of Operations

 

Sales in the six and three months ended June 30, 2014 decreased when compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. This was as a result of the cessation of the marketing and sale of OralStat in the Workplace market (see Part I; Note D). During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we recorded an operating profit of $85,000 and a net loss of $32,000. We had cash provided by operating activities of $213,000.

 

17
 

 

We continue to examine all expenses closely in efforts to achieve profitability (if sales levels improve) or to minimize losses going forward (if sales continue to decline). In August 2013, we implemented a number of expense and personnel cuts, and we implemented a salary and commission deferral program. The salary deferral program consists of a 20% salary deferral for our 2 (then) executive officers (Stan Cipkowski and Melissa Waterhouse) as well as a 20% salary deferral for our non-executive VP Operations, Douglas Casterlin and a sales consultant. The commission deferral program consists of a 50% deferral of employee commissions. As of June 30, 2014, we have deferred salary compensation owed of $39,000 and deferred commision owed of $84,000. In April 2014 and May 2014, we did repay a small portion of the commission deferrals (approximately $24,000) and as cash flow from operations allows, we intend to continue to make paybacks, however the deferral program is continuing and we expect it will continue for up to another 12 months.

 

Private and public sector drug testing budgets continue to be negatively affected by uncertain economic conditions and high unemployment rates. This uncertainty greatly impacts our core markets of Workplace and Government. We continue to believe that it will be some time before we see significant growth in these core markets. In addition, in November 2013, we were informed that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) determined that our OralStat was not substantially equivalent to the predicate market device (see Part I, Note D). In accordance with our Consent Decree, we ceased marketing and selling OralStat to the workplace (non-forensic) market but we continue to market and sell OralStat to the forensic market and for export outside the United States.

 

We remain focused on selling our point of collection drugs of abuse tests, and growing our business through direct sales and select distributors. We are making efforts to identify and secure new contract work, such as contract manufacturing or contract assembly. Simultaneously with these efforts, we are concentrating on: the reduction of manufacturing costs and operating expenses, enhancement of our current products and development of new product platforms and configurations to address market trends.

 

In the three months ended June 30, 2014, we continued to take actions to bring a urine-based, all-inclusive drug test to the clinical and possibly consumer market. We also continued to refocus our sales efforts on the forensic and international markets for oral fluid. In the three months ended June 30, 2014, we also started exploring new testing assays for our core markets. In addition, on January 17, 2014, we retained Landmark Financial Corporation to provide certain financial advisory services to the Company. Landmark is assisting our executive management and Board of Directors with the evaluation of certain strategic opportunities currently before the Company, as well as assisting the Company in locating alternative debt facilities.

 

Our continued existence is dependent upon several factors, including our ability to raise revenue levels and reduce costs to generate positive cash flows, and to obtain working capital by selling additional shares of our common stock, securing additional credit facilities, as necessary, and/or refinancing current credit facilities.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2014

COMPARED TO THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2013

 

Net Sales: Net sales in the six months ended June 30, 2014 declined 14.5% when compared to net sale in the six months ended June 30, 2013. In November 2013, we ceased marketing and selling our OralStat product to the Workplace market after the FDA informed the Company that OralStat (at an overall accuracy rate of 92%) was not substantially equivalent to the predicate device. Sales of OralStat in the Workplace market typically accounted for 15% or more of our net sales. We have refocused our efforts on forensic and international oral fluid sales as well as sales of our urine-based products to our core markets; however, these efforts did not result in an offset to the work place oral fluid sales decline in the three months ended June 30, 2014 (they did somewhat offset the declines in the three months ended March 31, 2014).

 

Government sales improved in the six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013. Price pressures from foreign competitors continue in the Government market, however we have recently had some success with securing some government contracts/orders where quality and service were considered above pricing. Foreign manufacturers continue to be able to offer their products at a lower price due to lower costs related to labor, material, regulatory compliance, insurance, etc.; therefore, it remains difficult to compete when cost is the primary factor. Government contracts are often awarded via an open solicitation process and in most cases, the bidder with the lowest priced product is awarded the contract. In addition, many state agencies are decreasing their purchasing levels in attempt to close their budget deficits. We are hopeful that our urine-based, all-inclusive drug test coming out in the latter part of this fiscal year will enable us to be even more cost competitive in this market.

 

18
 

 

International sales were also down in the six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013. Sales in Latin America and certain parts of Europe declined and that was only partially offset by increased sales in other parts of the world. In mid-late 2013, we contracted with two new international distributors and we are hopeful they will positively impact international sales going forward.

 

Contract manufacturing sales improved in the six months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013, primarily due to increased contract manufacturing of a product for fetal amniotic rupture.

 

COST OF GOODS SOLD/GROSS PROFIT: Cost of goods decreased to 56.8% of net sales in the six months ended June 30, 2014 from 61.1% of net sales in the six months ended June 30, 2013. Gross profit increased to 43.2% of net sales in the six months ended June 30, 2014 from 38.9% of net sales in the six months ended June 30, 2013. Price pressures from foreign manufacturers and overall market conditions continue to impact sales margins, however, in the six months ended June 30, 2014, this price pressure was offset by increased efficiency in manufacturing stemming from the expense reductions that were implemented in the latter part of 2013 and early in the six months ended June 30, 2014. We continuously evaluate our production personnel levels as well as our product manufacturing levels and inventory to ensure they are adequate to meet current and anticipated sales demands.

 

OPERATING EXPENSES: Operating expenses decreased 32.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013. In the latter part of Fiscal 2013 and into the early part of the six months ended June 30, 2014, we made a number of personnel and expense cuts in efforts to improve our financial condition and cash flow. The full benefit of these expense reductions made to date is being recognized in the six months ended June 30, 2014. In the six months ended June 30, 2014, reductions in all expense divisions of the Company were recognized. More specifically:

 

Research and Development (“R&D”) expense

 

R&D expense decreased 48.9% when comparing the six months ended June 30, 2014 with the six months ended June 30, 2013. This stems primarily from decreased salaries and employment taxes as well as decreased FDA compliance costs. The decrease in FDA compliance costs stems from the extraordinary efforts we were taking in the six months ended June 30, 2013 to file our oral fluid marketing clearance application. These expenses did not reoccur in the six months ended June 30, 2104. These reductions were nominally offset by increases in supplies and materials and repairs and maintenance costs. Our R&D department continues to focus their efforts on the enhancement of current products, development of new product platforms and exploration of contract manufacturing opportunities.

 

Selling and Marketing expense

 

Selling and marketing expense in the six months ended June 30, 2014 decreased 42.2% when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013. Decreased salaries and consulting expenses in both selling and marketing, sales commissions (due to decreased sales and some limited restructuring of commission programs) and postage charges were nominally offset by increased supply costs. In the six months ended June 30, 2014, we continued to promote our products through selected advertising, participation at high profile trade shows and other marketing activities. Our direct sales force focused their selling efforts in our target markets, which include, but are not limited to, Workplace and Government, as well as focusing on the physician and pain management clinic market with our CLIA waived Rapid TOX product line, and focusing on the forensic and international markets for our OralStat product.

 

General and Administrative (“G&A” expense)

 

G&A expense for the six months ended June 30, 2014 decreased 21.1% when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013. Decreases in investor relations, warehouse salaries, salaries and benefits (due to the reduction in executive management personnel after the death of our former CEO Stan Cipkowski in October 2013), legal fees (due to the settlement of litigation, brought by the Company, in August 2013 against one former officer (Martin Gould) and one former employee (Jacqueline Gale) as well as Advanced Diagnosticum Products, Inc and Biosure, Inc.), patents & licenses, bank service fees, repairs and maintenance and share-based payment expense were partially offset by an increase in brokers fees (in connection with debt financings). Share based payment expense was $19,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $61,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2013.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2014

COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2013

 

Net Sales: Net sales in the three months ended June 30, 2014 declined 23.9% when compared to net sales in the three months ended June 30, 2013. In November 2013, we ceased marketing and selling our OralStat product to the Workplace market after the FDA informed the Company that OralStat (at an overall accuracy rate of 92%) was not substantially equivalent to the predicate device. Sales of OralStat in the Workplace market typically accounted for 15% or more of our net sales. We have refocused our efforts on forensic and international oral fluid sales as well as sales of our urine-based products to our core markets; however, these efforts had little impact in the three months ended June 30, 2014 and did not result in an offset to the work place oral fluid sales decline in the three months ended June 30, 2014 (even though they did somewhat offset the declines in the three months ended March 31, 2014). In addition, government sales declined in the three months ended June 30, 2014 when they have been increasing over the past several quarters.

 

Government sales declined in the three months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013. We believe this may be due to the fact that some states are being fiscally conservative and decreasing their drug testing budgets and with some accounts; it may be an order timing issue. We are unsure if this new trend will continue into future quarters. The same price pressures from foreign competitors previously noted continue to affect government sales. We are hopeful that our urine-based, all-inclusive drug test coming out in the latter part of this fiscal year will enable us to be even more cost competitive in this market.

 

International sales were also down in the three months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013. Sales in Latin America, Europe and other parts of the world declined. In mid-late 2013, we contracted with a two new international distributors and we are hopeful they will positively impact international sales going forward.

 

Contract manufacturing sales improved in the three months ended June 30, 2014 when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013, primarily due to increased contract manufacturing of a product for fetal amniotic rupture.

 

COST OF GOODS SOLD/GROSS PROFIT: Cost of goods decreased to 56.4% of net sales in the three months ended June 30, 2014 from 59.3% of net sales in the three months ended June 30, 2013. Gross profit increased to 43.7% of net sales in the three months ended June 30, 2014 from 40.7% of net sales in the three months ended June 30, 2013. Price pressures from foreign manufacturers and overall market conditions continue to impact sales margins, however, in the three months ended June 30, 2014, this price pressure was offset by increased efficiency in manufacturing stemming from the expense reductions that were implemented prior to the three months ended June 30, 2014. We continuously evaluate our production personnel levels as well as our product manufacturing levels and inventory to ensure they are adequate to meet current and anticipated sales demands.

 

OPERATING EXPENSES: Operating expenses decreased 35.0% in the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013. In the latter part of Fiscal 2013 and prior to the three months ended June 30, 2014, we made a number of personnel and expense cuts in efforts to improve our financial condition and cash flow. The full benefit of these expense reductions made to date is being recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2014. In the three months ended June 30, 2014, reductions in all expense divisions of the Company were recognized. More specifically:

 

Research and Development (“R&D”) expense

 

R&D expense increased 60.9% when comparing the three months ended June 30, 2014 with the three months ended June 30, 2013. This stems primarily from decreased salaries and employment taxes as well as decreased FDA compliance costs. The decrease in FDA compliance costs stems from the extraordinary efforts we were taking in the three months ended June 30, 2013 to file our oral fluid marketing clearance application. These expenses did not reoccur in the three months ended June 30, 2104. Our R&D department continues to focus their efforts on the enhancement of current products, development of new product platforms and exploration of contract manufacturing opportunities.

Selling and Marketing expense

 

Selling and marketing expense in the three months ended June 30, 2014 decreased 45.7% when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013. Decreased salaries and consulting expenses in both selling and marketing, sales commissions (due to decreased sales and some limited restructuring of commission programs) and postage charges were nominally offset by increased trade show costs. In the three months ended June 30, 2014, we continued to promote our products through selected advertising, participation at high profile trade shows and other marketing activities. Our direct sales force focused their selling efforts in our target markets, as well as focusing on the physician and pain management clinic market with our CLIA waived Rapid TOX product line, and focusing on the forensic and international markets for our OralStat product.

 

General and Administrative (“G&A” expense)

 

G&A expense for the three months ended June 30, 2014 decreased 20.6% when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013. Decreases in warehouse salaries, salaries and benefits (due to the reduction in executive management personnel after the death of our former CEO Stan Cipkowski in October 2013), legal fees (due to the settlement of litigation, brought by the Company, in August 2013 against one former officer (Martin Gould) and one former employee (Jacqueline Gale) as well as Advanced Diagnosticum Products, Inc and Biosure, Inc.), patents & licenses, repairs and maintenance and share-based payment expense were partially offset by an increase in bank service fees and brokers fees (in connection with debt financings). Share based payment expense was $11,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $25,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2013.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources as of June 30, 2014

 

Our cash requirements depend on numerous factors, including product development activities, penetration of our core markets, and effective management of inventory levels and production levels in response to sales forecasts. We expect to devote capital resources to continue product development and research and development activities. We will examine other growth opportunities including strategic alliances and expect such activities will be funded from existing cash and cash equivalents, issuance of additional equity or additional borrowings, subject to market and other conditions. Our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 were prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern. Although our financial condition has improved when comparing the six months ended June 30, 2014 with the six months ended June 30, 2013, our current cash balances, together with cash generated from future operations and amounts available under our credit facilities may not be sufficient to fund operations for the next twelve months. If cash generated from operations is not sufficient to satisfy our working capital and capital expenditure requirements, we will be required to sell additional equity or obtain additional credit facilities. There is no assurance that such financing will be available or that we will be able to complete financing on satisfactory terms, if at all.

 

As of June 30, 2014, we had the following debt/credit facilities:

Working Capital

 

Our working capital increased $296,000 at June 30, 2014 when compared to working capital at December 31, 2013 primarily as a result of reclassification of a portion of our mortgage consolidation loan with First Niagara from short-term to long-term as a result of the third amendment of the mortgage consolidation loan (in which the term was increased to 3 years) as well as decreases in account payable, accrued expenses and amounts due under our line of credit and debentures (which was a result of a partial pay off), offset by a reduction in our cash balances, accounts receivable and inventory.

 

We have historically satisfied net working capital requirements through cash from operations and bank debt.

Dividends

 

We have never paid any dividends on our common shares and anticipate that all future earnings, if any, will be retained for use in our business, and therefore, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends.

 

Cash Flows

 

A net loss of $32,000 for the six months ending June 30, 2014, plus a reduction in inventory of $127,000, a reduction in accounts receivable of $145,000 offset by a reduction in accounts payable and other accrued liability of $286,000 and adding back amortization and depreciation of $210,000, largely has resulted in $213,000 of cash being provided by operations for six months ending June 30, 2014. A net loss of $718,000 for six months ending June 30, 2013, plus increases in accounts receivable and prepaid expenses and other current assets along with a substantial decrease in accounts payable partially offset by a decrease in inventory and an increase in the provision for slow moving and obsolete inventory resulted in cash used in operating activities of $1,009,000 for the first six months ending June 30, 2013.

 

Net cash used in investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2014 was for the purchase of property, plant and equipment and patent application costs. Net cash used in investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2013 was for the purchase of property, plant and equipment.

 

Net cash used in financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2014 consisted of payments on debt financing and payments on our line of credit, offset by proceeds from our line of credit. Net cash provided by financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2013 consisted of proceeds from our line of credit, offset by payments on debt financing, debt issuance costs and payments on our line of credit, offset by.

 

At June 30, 2014, we had cash and cash equivalents of $447,000.

 

Outlook

 

Given our current sales levels and results of operations, even though our financial condition has improved over previous recent fiscal years, it is still uncertain if we will be required to raise additional capital in the year ending December 31, 2014 to be able to continue operations. If events and circumstances occur such that we do not meet our current operating plans, we are unable to raise sufficient additional equity or debt financing, or our credit facilities are insufficient or not available, we may be required to further reduce expenses or take other steps which could have a material adverse effect on our future performance.

 

Our ability to repay or to refinance our current debt will depend primarily upon our future operating performance, which may be affected by general economic, financial, competitive, regulatory, business and other factors beyond our control, including those discussed herein. In addition, we cannot assure you that future borrowings or equity financing will be available for the payment or refinancing of any indebtedness we may have.

 

Our failure to comply with the restrictive covenants under our revolving credit facility and other debt instruments could result in an event of default, which, if not cured or waived, could result in the Company being required to repay these borrowings before their due date or pay higher costs associated with the indebtedness. If we are forced to refinance these borrowings on less favorable terms, our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected by increased costs and rates. We may also be forced to pursue one or more alternative strategies, such as restructuring or refinancing our indebtedness, selling assets, reducing or delaying capital expenditures or seeking additional equity capital. There can be no assurances that any of these strategies could be effected on satisfactory terms, if at all.

 

Our Series A Debentures and Bridge Loan with Cantone Asset Management matured on August 1, 2014. We are currently in discussions with the original placement agent, Cantone Research, Inc. to receive forbearance from the Debenture Holders and Cantone Asset Management that would provide the Company with an additional 6-month period to refinance the debentures. In the 6-month forbearance period, the Company would still be required to pay 15% interest on a quarterly basis to the Debenture Holders and Cantone Asset Management. As of the date of this report, the amount due to the Debenture Holders is $543,000 and the amount due to Cantone Asset Management is $200,000.
