NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

Generic Marketing Services, Inc. was incorporated on July 19, 2007 under the laws of the State of Nevada as a subsidiary of Basic Services, Inc., also a Nevada corporation.   On December 31, 2007, Basic Services spun off Generic Marketing Services.  On October 8, 2008, Generic Marketing Services changed its name to Total Nutraceutical Solutions, Inc. (TNS, the Company, us, we, or our).  We engage in the distribution of organic dietary supplement nutraceutical products in the United States of America.  We are also engaged in the discovery, scientific evaluation and marketing of natural formulations that can be used in medical foods, nutraceuticals, cosmetics and other products developed and sold by Entia and by third parties.


On January 9, 2012, the amendment to our Articles of Incorporation involving the name change from Total Nutraceutical Solutions, Inc. to Entia Biosciences, Inc. (“Entia”) became effective with the Secretary of State of Nevada.  We also filed articles of incorporation for a wholly owned subsidiary of Entia, with such subsidiary to be named Total Nutraceutical Solutions, Inc. in January 2012.


We have a history of incurring net losses and net operating cash flow deficits.  We are also developing new technologies related to our organic nutraceutical products.  At June 30, 2014, we had cash and cash equivalents of $15,484.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  As a result, we anticipate that our cash and cash equivalent balances, anticipated cash flows from operations and anticipated operating cash flows will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements through September 2014.


In order for us to continue as a going concern beyond this point and ultimately to achieve profitability, we may be required to obtain capital from external sources, increase revenues and reduce operating costs.  The issuance of equity securities will also cause dilution to our shareholders.  If external financing sources of financing are not available or are inadequate to fund our operations, we will be required to reduce operating costs including personnel costs, which could jeopardize our future strategic initiatives and business plans.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company continues as a going concern.  


The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the matters discussed herein.



NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation


The accompanying consolidated unaudited interim financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the United states Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.  The unaudited interim financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented.  Unaudited interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.  These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2013 and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.  


All intercompany accounts have been eliminated for the purpose of the consolidated financial statement presentation.

 

Use of estimates


The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of



8



contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Cash


We consider all highly liquid, short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.


Accounts receivable


Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of allowance for doubtful accounts.  The allowance for doubtful accounts is our best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses based on specific identification of accounts in our existing accounts receivable.  Outstanding account balances are reviewed individually for collectibility.  We determine the allowance based on historical write-off experience, customer specific facts and economic conditions.  Bad debt expense is included in general and administrative expenses, if any.  We consider all accounts greater than 30 days old to be past due.  Account balances are charged off against allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.  The allowance for doubtful accounts was $2,526 at both June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013.


Inventory


Inventory, which consists primarily of raw materials to be used in the production of our dietary supplement products, is stated at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out method. We regularly review our inventory on hand and, when necessary, record a provision for excess or obsolete inventory.   


Property and equipment


Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Additions and improvements that increase the value or extend the life of an asset are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.  Upon sale or retirement of property and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statement of operations.  Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives of the assets:


Office equipment

 

3 years

Production equipment

 

5 to 7 years

Equipment under capital lease

 

5 to 7 years

Leasehold improvements

 

Lesser of lease term or useful life of improvement


Patents


Patents, once issued or purchased, are amortized using the straight-line method over their economic remaining useful lives. All internally developed process costs incurred to the point when a patent application is to be filed are expensed as incurred and classified as research and development costs.  Patent application costs, generally legal costs, are capitalized pending disposition of the individual patent application, and are subsequently either amortized based on the initial patent life granted, generally 15 to 20 years for domestic patents and 5 to 20 years for foreign patents, or expensed if the patent application is rejected.  The costs of defending and maintaining patents are expensed as incurred.  Upon becoming fully amortized, the related cost and accumulated amortization are removed from the accounts.


Impairment of long-lived assets


Our long-lived assets, which include property and equipment, patents and licenses of patents, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.


We assess the recoverability of our long-lived assets by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related long-lived asset or group of long-lived assets over their remaining estimated useful



9



lives against their respective carrying amounts. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets.  Fair value is generally determined using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable.  If long-lived assets are determined to be recoverable, but the newly determined remaining estimated useful lives are shorter than originally estimated, the net book values of the long-lived assets are depreciated over the newly determined remaining estimated useful lives.  

 

Discount on convertible notes payable


We allocate the proceeds received from convertible notes between convertible notes payable and warrants, if applicable. The resulting discount for warrants is amortized using the effective interest method over the life of the debt instrument. After allocating a portion of the proceeds to the warrants, the effective conversion price of the convertible note payable can be determined. If the effective conversion price is lower than the market price at the date of issuance, a beneficial conversion feature is recorded as an additional discount to the convertible note payable. The beneficial conversion feature discount is amortized using the effective interest method over the life of the debt instrument.  The amortization is recorded as interest expense on the consolidated statements of operations.


Fair value of financial instruments


The carrying amounts of our financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable, approximate their fair values (determined based on level 1 inputs in the fair value hierarchy) because of the short maturity of these instruments.  Due to conversion features and other terms, it is not practical to estimate the fair value of notes payable and convertible notes.


Fair value measurements


We measure fair value as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. We utilize a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:


Level 1

 

Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.

 

 

 

Level 2

 

Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.

 

 

 

Level 3

 

Unobservable inputs where there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.


We do not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or a non-recurring basis. Consequently, we did not have any fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value at June 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013, nor any gains or losses reported in the consolidated statement of operations that are attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to those assets and liabilities still held at the reporting date for the periods ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013.


Revenue recognition


We recognize revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been performed, (iii) amounts are fixed or determinable and (iv) collectibility of amounts is reasonably assured.


Revenues from the sale of products, including shipping and handling fees but excluding statutory taxes collected from customers, as applicable, are recognized when shipment has occurred. We sell our products directly to customers. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement is demonstrated via order and invoice, product delivery is evidenced by a bill of lading from the third party carrier and title transfers upon shipment, the sales price to the customer is fixed upon acceptance of the order and there is no separate sales rebate, discount, or volume incentive.





10




Shipping and handling costs


Amounts charged to customers for shipping products are included in revenues and the related costs are classified in cost of goods sold as incurred.  


Advertising and promotion costs


Costs associated with the advertising and promotions of our products are expensed as incurred.


Equity instruments issued to parties other than employees for acquiring goods or services


We account for all transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.  The measurement date used to determine the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur.  Currently such transactions are primarily awards of warrants to purchase common stock.


The fair value of each warrant award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing valuation model.  


The assumptions used to determine the fair value of our warrants are as follows:


-

The expected life of warrants issued represents the period of time the warrants are expected to be outstanding.

 

 

-

The expected volatility is generally based on the historical volatility of comparable companies’ stock over the contractual life of the warrant.

 

 

-

The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods within the contractual life of the warrant.

 

 

-

The expected dividend yield is based on our current dividend yield as the best estimate of projected dividend yield for periods within the contractual life of the warrant.


Income taxes


We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns.  Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in our consolidated statements of income in the period that includes the enactment date.


We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position.  The tax benefits recognized in our consolidated financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.  Should they occur, our policy is to classify interest and penalties related to tax positions as income tax expense.


We did not record an income tax provision for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 as we had a net taxable loss in the periods.




11




Net loss per common share


Basic and diluted net loss per share has been computed by dividing our net loss by the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding. Convertible preferred stock, options and warrants to purchase our common stock as well as debt which are convertible into common stock are anti-dilutive and therefore are not included in the determination of the diluted net loss per share for three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.   The following table presents a reconciliation of basic loss per share and excluded dilutive securities:

Reclassifications 


Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period financial statements and footnotes in order to conform to the current period's presentation.


Segments


We have determined that we operate in one segment for financial reporting purposes.


Recently issued accounting pronouncements


In May 2014, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to revenue recognition. This new standard will replace all current U.S. GAAP guidance on this topic and eliminate all industry-specific guidance. The new revenue recognition standard provides a unified model to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration for which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance will be effective for Entia beginning January 1, 2017 and can be applied either retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this new accounting standard on our financial statements.

$312,500 in notes payable was due on June 30, 2014.  We are currently in negotiations with the note holder to extend this note and we are not in default.  


During 2014, we entered into the following debenture agreements that accrue interest at 10%, mature in 1 year and grant the investor on a one warrant per dollar basis that are exercisable for 3 years at $1 per share and vest immediately:


o

On April 15, 2014, we entered into an agreement for $10,000.  We calculated the fair value of the warrants at $4,130,

o

On April 27, 2014, we entered into an agreement for $100,000.  We calculated the fair value of the warrants at $39,200, and

o

On March 28, 2014, we entered into an agreement for $25,000.  We calculated the fair value of the warrants at $9,450.


We posted the fair value of the warrants as a discount on the notes and amortize them over the life of the debenture.  Total value of the discounts is $52,780.


In addition to the debentures, during 2014, we entered into the following convertible promissory notes with an interest rate of 8% per annum, compounded annually.  If the note remains unpaid after one hundred eighty (180) days from the Issue date, the holder has the option to convert the principal and accrued interest into shares of our Company stock at a conversion price equal to 58% of the “trading price” as described in the note.  We have calculated a discount for the beneficial conversion feature in the amount of $77,482 and will be amortized over the life of the loan.  The amount amortized for 2014 is $14,603:


o

On February 3, 2014, $42,000 due on November 3, 2014,

o

On April 17, 2014, $32,500 due on January 17, 205, and

o

On June 13, 2014, $32,500 due on March 13, 2015.  


On March 25, 2014, we entered into a line of credit arrangement.  The line of credit is $60,000 with an interest rate of prime plus 3.00%.  There are no loan covenants applicable to this line of credit and the amount outstanding as of June 30, 2014 is $11,750.  The line of credit is reported on the balance sheet with accounts payable and accrued expenses.



NOTE 8 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS


Debt agreements from board member


In December 2013, we entered into a promissory note due on March 31, 2014 at 0% in the principal amount of $40,000.  The note was paid off on March 31, 2014.

Stock incentive plan


On September 17, 2010, our Board of Directors adopted the 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (“Plan”). The Plan provides for the grant of options to purchase shares of our common stock, and stock awards consisting of shares of our common stock, to eligible participants, including directors, executive officers, employees and consultants of the Company.  We have reserved 4,650,000 shares of common stock for issuance under the Plan with an annual increase in shares of 50,000 as of January 1 of each year; commencing January 1, 2012.  Stock options are granted at or below the closing price of our stock on the date of grant for terms ranging from four to fifteen years and generally vest over a five year period.  The fair value of option grants were calculated at the date of the grants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

NOTE 11 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS


On July 14, 2014, we were notified by the Michael J Fox Foundation that we had been awarded a grant to conduct a pre-clinical study of our ErgoD2® medical food formulation as a potential therapy for Parkinson’s Disease.


On July 14, 2014, we entered into a debt agreement with an investor for $42,500.  The note is convertible after 180 days and is due in April 2015.  The conversion price is not set for 180 days.  Interest accrues at 8%.  We have calculated a discount related to the beneficial conversion in the amount of $30,776 and will amortize over the life of the loan.


In July 2014, an investor converted the remaining $33,000 from a note due in August 2014 for 226,530 shares of common stock.  


On July 1, 2014, we entered into a promissory note with Dr. Sobol, (a board member) for $15,000.  The note matures on October 31, 2014 and does not accrue interest.  In conjunction with the note, we granted Dr. Sobol a five year warrant to purchase 15,000 shares of common stock at $0.50 per share and fully vests upon receipt of monies.  We calculated a discount on the granting of the warrants in the amount of $5,445 and will expense this in July.  The note also contained a conversion feature where the member can convert the note into common stock at $0.50 per share.  We calculated and posted a discount related to this beneficial conversion of $7,545 and will amortize this over the life of the loan.

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


Overview of Current Operations


Entia Biosciences, Inc. (Entia) is an emerging biotechnology company engaged in the discovery, formulation, production and marketing of functional ingredients that can be used in branded medical foods, nutraceuticals, cosmetics and other products developed and sold by Entia and third parties.  Our current portfolio of formulations contains ERGO D2, vitamin D2, L-Ergothioneine and curcumin.  


Through our wholly owned subsidiary Total Nutraceutical Solutions, Inc. (TNS), we currently market nutraceutical products under the GROH® and SANO brands direct to consumers online and through leading hair salons and other resellers in North America.  TNS currently offers  three natural organic nutraceutical mushroom dietary supplement products, ImmuSANO®, GlucoSANO®, and GROH®, which has been designed to nutritionally support hair follicles and nail beds.  ImmuSANOTM is designed to nutritionally address the needs of the immune system by balancing cellular function and promoting a stronger immune system.  GlucoSANOTM is designed to assist in maintaining more normal cellular metabolism and stabilizing blood sugar levels.  


Our formulations, which contain highly potent antioxidants, have the nutritional potential to provide multiple health benefits, including balancing iron homeostasis, reducing inflammation, supporting the immune system, promoting healthy joints, increasing stamina, and reducing stress and anxiety.  These naturally occurring dietary substances and products have not been chemically altered, and we believe these products have both health benefits and mass appeal to people wanting natural and non-toxic nutritional-based healthcare.  We utilize novel clinical models, biomarkers, and analytical tools to validate the nutritional and clinical efficacy of our formulations and the products that incorporate them.  Research and development of new formulations and nutraceutical products are also performed under contract with outside laboratories, such as the Department of Food Science, Pennsylvania State University.

Cost of Goods Sold.   Cost of goods sold includes raw materials such as nutraceutical mushrooms, as well as production costs for manufacturing our supplement products.  Cost of goods sold for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 increased from 2013 due to increased product sales and the result of changes in our product mix.

Advertising and promotional expenses.  These costs include costs for promotional products, production fees for marketing materials, costs associated with fulfillment, fees for advertising programs such as ad placement fees, and postage fees for mailing marketing materials.  The decrease in these expenses is attributed to the re-branding campaign we went through in 2013.  So far in 2014, we have not incurred any of these expenses.


Professional fees.  These expenses primarily include accounting/auditing fees, legal fees and stock transfer fees.  The increase in professional fees from 2013 is due primarily to increased accounting fees during 2014.


Consulting fees.  These expenses are comprised of fees incurred by third-party consultants for the provision of administrative, information technology and marketing management services.  The decrease in these expenses from 2013 is due to decreased consultants fees for their services during 2014 and the decrease in warrants granted.  


General and administrative expenses.  These expenses primarily include compensation, costs related to travel, rent and utilities, insurance, depreciation, product development, payroll and bad debt.  The decrease from 2013 is attributable to a decrease in stock based compensation and travel during 2014.


Material Changes in Financial Condition


At June 30, 2014, cash totaled $15,484, compared to $36,186 at December 31, 2013.  The primary reasons for the net decrease in 2014 are described below.  Working capital deficit was $(1,740,442) at June 30, 2014, compared to $(1,355,230) at December 31, 2013.  The change in working capital was due primarily to the accrual of the increase in compensation for executive officers and issuance of short-term debt.  The net change in cash and cash equivalents for the periods presented was comprised of the following:

21



Operating Activities.  The decrease in net cash flows used from operating activities was due primarily to a larger amortization of debt discount and a reduction in accounts payable.


Investing Activities.  The increase in net cash flows used from investing activities was due primarily to lack of acquisitions of patents and patents pending.


Financing Activities.  The decrease in net cash flows from financing activities was due primarily to the lack of proceeds from the issuance of Series A Preferred Stock.  


Future Liquidity.  We have a history of incurring net losses and negative operating cash flows.  We are also deploying new technologies and continue to develop commercial products and services.  Based on our cash on hand, income from operations and the degree to which our burn rate can be reduced while continuing operations, management believes it has sufficient funds to remain operational through September 2014.


We expect our revenues to increase in the third quarter of 2014.  Notwithstanding that expected increase in revenues, we anticipate that we will continue to generate losses in 2014 and therefore we may be unable to continue operations in the future.   In order for us to continue as a going concern and ultimately to achieve profitability, we may be required to obtain capital from external sources, increase revenues or reduce operating costs or take all of these actions.  We will require additional capital of at least approximately $412,500 to repay debt principal and accrued interest maturing on September 30, 2014 and we intend to raise the monies by undertaking one or more equity private placements.  We may also pursue re-negotiation and re-structuring of the debt.  However, there can be no assurances that our operations will become profitable or that external sources of financing, including the issuance of debt and/or equity securities, will be available at times and at terms acceptable to us, or at all.  The issuance of additional equity or convertible debt securities will also cause dilution to our shareholders.  If external financing sources are not available or are inadequate to fund our operations, we will be required to reduce our operating costs, which could jeopardize our future strategic initiatives and business plans.  For example, a reduction in operating costs could jeopardize our ability to launch, market, and sell new nutraceutical supplement products necessary to grow and sustain our operations.  


Subsequent Events


On July 14, 2014, we were notified by the Michael J Fox Foundation that we had been awarded a grant to conduct a pre-clinical study of our ErgoD2® medical food formulation as a potential therapy for Parkinson’s Disease.


On July 14, 2014, we entered into a debt agreement with an investor for $42,500.  The note is convertible after 180 days and is due in April 2015.  The conversion price is not set for 180 days.  Interest accrues at 8%.  We have calculated a discount related to the beneficial conversion in the amount of $30,776 and will amortize over the life of the loan.


In July 2014, an investor converted the remaining $33,000 from a note due in August 2014 for 226,530 shares of common stock.  


On July 1, 2014, we entered into a promissory note with Dr. Sobol (a board member) for $15,000.  The note matures on October 31, 2014 and does not accrue interest.  In conjunction with the note, we granted Dr. Sobol a five year warrant to purchase 15,000 shares of common stock at $0.50 per share and fully vests upon receipt of monies.  We calculated a discount on the granting of the warrants in the amount of $5,445 and will expense this in July.  The note also contained a conversion feature where the member can convert the note into common stock at $0.50 per share.  We calculated and posted a discount related to this beneficial conversion of $7,545 and will amortize this over the life of the loan.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer who is also our principal financial and accounting 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, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of June 30, 2014.  Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the material weaknesses identified in our management report on internal controls and procedures contained in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, Item 9A filed on March 31, 2014 still exist, and therefore our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2014.


Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting


As of June 30, 2014, there have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2014, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our company’s internal control over financial reporting.


Part II. OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.  Legal Proceedings


From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business.  However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business.


We are not presently a party to any material litigation, nor to the knowledge of management is any litigation threatened against us, which may materially affect us.

See Risk Factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, and the discussion above in Part I, Item 2, under " Liquidity and Capital Resources.”
