B-SCADA, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS [UNAUDITED]

JANUARY 31, 2016



(1)  Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation


B-Scada, Inc. (“B-Scada”, the “Company”, “we” or “us”), a Delaware corporation, was originally formed under the name Firefly Learning, Inc. in May 2001. In October 2005, pursuant to an exchange agreement, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Mobiform Software, Ltd. (“Mobiform Canada”), a Canadian corporation, in exchange for 14,299,593 shares of our common stock and changed our name to Mobiform Software, Inc.  Effective September 14, 2010, Mobiform Canada was dissolved.  On October 19, 2012, we changed our name to B-Scada, Inc. On October 15, 2014, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary in Spain, B-Scada Soluciones Industriales SL (“B-Scada Spain”) to provide improved sales, service and support to Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa. On August 20, 2015 we formed a wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary, Monitor Sensing Technologies, Inc., a Florida corporation, which will operate our wireless sensor business.


B-Scada is in the business of developing software and hardware products for the visualization and monitoring of data in residential, commercial and heavy industries. Our HMI (Human Machine Interface) software and SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) products are utilized in the petrochemical, electricity distribution, transportation, facilities management and manufacturing industries. B-Scada licenses portions of its technology for use in the products of smaller software firms and Fortune 500 companies. B-Scada also markets and sells a line of wireless sensors used for monitoring various information like temperature, pressure, voltage and water detection. The sensors are used in a variety of light commercial applications. Our products are marketed and sold globally and offered through a sales channel of system integrators and resellers.



(2)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Our other accounting policies are set forth in Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our October 31, 2015 Form 10K.


Unaudited Interim Statements - The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as of January 31, 2016, and for the three months ended January 31, 2016 and 2015 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted for interim financial statement presentation and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q.  Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statement presentation.  In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position as of January 31, 2016 and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended January 31, 2016 and 2015.  The consolidated results of operations for the three months ended January 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.


Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of B-Scada, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiaries.  All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.


Cash and Cash Equivalents - We consider all highly liquid investments, with a maturity of three months or less when purchased, to be cash equivalents.

B-SCADA, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS [UNAUDITED]

JANUARY 31, 2016


(2)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)


Revenue Recognition - Our revenues are recognized in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 985-605 “Revenue Recognition” for the software industry.  Revenue from the sale of software licenses is recognized when standardized software modules are delivered to and accepted by the customer, the license term has begun, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectability is probable.  Revenue from software maintenance contracts and Application Service Provider (“ASP”) services are recognized ratably over the lives of the contracts.  Revenue from professional services is recognized when the service is provided.


We enter into revenue arrangements in which a customer may purchase a combination of software, maintenance and support, and professional services (multiple-element arrangements).  When vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value exists for all elements, we allocate revenue to each element based on the relative fair value of each of the elements.  VSOE of fair value is established by the price charged when that element is sold separately.  For maintenance and support, VSOE of fair value is established by renewal rates, when they are sold separately.  For arrangements where VSOE of fair value exists only for the undelivered elements, we defer the full fair value of the undelivered elements and recognize the difference between the total arrangement fee and the amount deferred for the undelivered items as revenue, assuming all other criteria for revenue recognition have been met.


Inventory - Inventory consists of finished goods and is stated at the lower of cost or market determined by the first-in, first-out method.


Equity-Based Compensation - We account for equity based compensation transactions with employees under the FASB ASC Topic No. 718, “Compensation, Stock Compensation” (“Topic No. 718”). Topic No. 718 requires the recognition of the fair value of equity-based compensation in net earnings. The fair value of common stock issued for compensation is measured at the market price on date of grant. The fair value of our equity instruments, other than common stock, is estimated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. This model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions and elections including expected stock price volatility and the estimated life of each award. In addition, the calculation of equity-based compensation costs requires that we estimate the number of awards that will be forfeited during the vesting period. The fair value of equity-based awards granted to employees is amortized over the vesting period of the award and we elected to use the straight-line method for awards granted after the adoption of Topic No. 718.


We account for equity based transactions with non-employees under the provisions of ASC Topic No. 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“Topic No. 505-50”). Topic No. 505-50 establishes that equity-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. When the equity instrument is utilized for measurement the fair value of (i) common stock issued for payments to non-employees is measured at the market price on the date of grant; (ii) equity instruments, other than common stock, is estimated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. In general, we recognize an asset or expense in the same manner as if it is to pay cash for the goods or services instead of paying with or using the equity instrument.


Concentration of Credit Risk - Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, and accounts receivable.


We maintain our cash and cash equivalents in accounts with major financial institutions in the form of demand deposits.  Deposits in these banks may exceed the amounts of insurance provided on such deposits. At January 31, 2016, we had approximately $910,000 in cash in one financial institution in excess of the $250,000 FDIC insured limit. At October 31, 2015, we had approximately $167,000 and $47,000, respectively, in cash in two financial institutions in excess of the $250,000 FDIC insured limit.


Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable are limited.  We routinely assess the financial strength of customers and, based upon factors concerning credit risk, we establish an allowance for doubtful accounts.  As of January 31, 2016 and October 31, 2015, based on this assessment, management established an allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $750. Management believes that accounts receivable credit risk exposure is limited.

JANUARY 31, 2016


(2)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - We review our long-lived assets, including intangible assets subject to amortization, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  When such factors and circumstances exist, we compare the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the future use and disposal of the related assets or group of assets to their respective carrying amounts.  Impairment, if any, is measured as the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value based on market value (when available) or discounted expected cash flows of those assets, and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made.


Intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested annually for impairment and more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. These tests were performed for the year ended October 31, 2015 and it was determined that the carrying value of the asset was not impaired.


Foreign Currency Translation - We consider the U.S. dollar (“US$”) to be our functional currency.  B-Scada Spain considers the Euro (“Euro”) to be its functional currency.  Assets and liabilities are translated into US$ at the period end exchange rate.  Income and expense amounts are translated using the average rates during the period. Gains and losses resulting from translating foreign currency financial statements are included in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss, a separate component of stockholders’ equity.


Technology Development - We capitalize costs to develop technology for sale once technological feasibility is established. Costs incurred to establish technological feasibility are charged to expense when incurred. Capitalization of technology costs cease when the related products are available for sale and at this time the capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product.


Reclassification - The Fiscal 2015 statement of operations and comprehensive loss has been reclassified to conform to the presentation used in the January 31, 2016 financial statements.


Subsequent Events - The Company evaluated subsequent events, which are events or transactions that occurred after January 31, 2016 through the date of the issuance of the accompanying consolidated financial statements.


(3)  New Authoritative Accounting Guidance


In November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-17, “Income Taxes” (Topic 740), which revises the balance sheet classification of deferred taxes. Currently, entities are required to separate deferred tax assets and liabilities into current and noncurrent amounts on the balance sheet, ASU No. 2015-17 requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as all noncurrent on the balance sheet. The amendments in the ASU may be applied either retrospectively or prospectively. The effective date will be the first quarter of our fiscal year ended October 31, 2018. We have elected to prospectively apply the guidance in ASU No. 2015-17 effective with our fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2015.

 

In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606), which defers the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 by one year. As a result, the effective date will now be the first quarter of our fiscal year ended October 31, 2019. We have not determined the potential effects on our consolidated financial statements.


In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, and most industry-specific guidance. This ASU is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.  The ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract.  The amendments in the ASU will be applied using one of two retrospective methods. The effective date will be the first quarter of our fiscal year ended October 31, 2018.  We have not determined the potential effects on our consolidated financial statements.

Net operating loss carry forwards for U.S. tax purposes are approximately $2.5 million at October 31, 2015.  A substantial portion of these losses begin to expire in fiscal 2028; all losses expire in fiscal 2035.  Net operating loss carryforwards for Spanish tax purposes are approximately US $296,000 at October 31, 2015 (B-Scada Spain files corporate taxes based on a calendar year).  Generally, these losses can be carried forward subject to certain limitations; losses up to Euro 1 million (approximately US $1.1 million) can be utilized annually without restriction. Tax benefits of operating loss carry forwards are evaluated on an ongoing basis, including a review of historical and projected future operating results, the eligible carry forward period, and other circumstances. At October 31, 2015, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company would utilize its net operating loss carry forwards in future periods.


(9)  Commitments and Contingencies


Leases


B-Scada Spain subleases office space in Spain from an entity related to the two principal employees in Spain. The lease is for a term of five years commencing November 1, 2014 with annual renewal options thereafter. Base rent is $1,137 (Euro 1,050) per month for the first fourteen months after which it increases to $1,365 (Euro 1,260) per month for the remainder of the term. There is an annual escalation based on the Spanish National General Index of Consumer Prices and we are responsible for the related costs, such as, taxes, utilities and maintenance. Rent expense amounted to $3,508 (Euro 3,239) for the three months ended January 31, 2016. Future lease commitments through the twelve months ended January 31 are as follows: 2017 - $16,376; 2018 - $16,376; 2019 - $16,376; 2020 - $12,282.


Compensation Agreements


In connection with the formation of B-Scada Spain, we entered into agreements with two individuals and a related entity in Spain to establish and maintain our Spanish office and for employment services. In October 2014, we made an advance payment of approximately $182,000 for services related to the establishment of our office in Spain. Such services included, among other necessary services, securing and setting up the office location, interviewing and hiring qualified personnel and translating technical documents, marketing materials, web site, etc. These services were completed in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 and at such time this amount was expensed.  Contingent upon continued employment, the two individuals will each be paid 12.5% (25% in total) of the annual net profit of B-Scada Spain, calculated at each fiscal year end, until a total of US $175,000 (US $350,000 in total) has been paid at which time payments will cease.  No payment was required to be made for the year ended October 31, 2015 and no amount has been accrued for the three months ended January 31, 2016.


We also entered into employment agreements with the two individuals effective November 1, 2014. The agreements provide for annual salaries of Euro 42,615 (approximately US $46,000) and Euro 30,000 (approximately US $32,000), respectively, and commissions as defined in our sales commission policy, among other customary terms, such as, vacation pay and qualified expense reimbursements. The agreements are on an ongoing basis unless terminated by either us or the employee, as defined in the agreements. The agreements also provide that if the employee is terminated due to redundancy (layoff), in addition to being paid any unused vacation pay, the employee, if employed for at least one full year, will receive redundancy pay equal to 45 days for each year of employment, not to exceed 42 months of equivalent salary. Both the unused vacation pay and redundancy pay are payable at the employee’s then applicable base salary.

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


The following discussion of our results of operations should be read together with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes, included elsewhere in this report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our current plans, estimates and beliefs and involves unknown risks and uncertainties. Examples of forward-looking statements include: projections of capital expenditures, competitive pressures, revenues, growth prospects, product development, financial resources and other financial matters. You can identify these and other forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “intends,” “potential” or the negative of such terms, or other comparable terminology. Our actual results may differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.


Executive Summary

B-Scada, Inc. (“we,’’ “B-Scada,” “us,” “our”) is in the business of developing software and hardware products for the visualization and monitoring of data in residential, commercial and heavy industries. Since 2003, B-Scada's focus on user interface design solutions for Windows and web applications has given us a unique perspective and insight into the data visualization market.  Our software solutions are reducing resource consumption, increasing productivity and improving safety all over the world in industries like manufacturing, building automation, water treatment, energy management, and other fields of business relying on real-time data visualization and analytics to manage their processes. With a background in heavy industrial software technology, B-Scada has pushed beyond the traditional boundaries of SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) to bring our technology to light industrial, commercial and residential customers as well.


From machine-level HMI software to enterprise-level SCADA software, B-Scada leverages the latest technology and industry standards to provide powerful, stable, and modern solutions to its customers. B-Scada also has IoT (Internet of Things) cloud-based and on premise solutions, that allow users to create powerful customized applications for Smart Cities and remote monitoring. B-Scada’s team of developers and designers have provided world-class service and consultation to customers in a wide range of vertical markets.


Overall Strategic Goals

Our goal is to become a leading supplier of data visualization and analytics to industry. Using some of the best talent in the industry, we build our monitoring systems in house and sell them into various vertical markets worldwide including building automation, petro chemical, transportation, electricity distribution and EPA emissions monitoring. Smaller firms and Fortune 500 companies have recognized the talent of our technical staff and the unique capabilities of our technology. This has given us the ability to license portions of our technology to other companies to use in their software systems.  


Products and Services

Our technology team has extensive experience in software design and development and has designed, built and delivered, over the years, world-class software solutions for numerous vertical markets. In addition to software development, we also derive income from the sale of wireless sensors, consulting services, graphic design and contract development that we offer hand in hand with our software solutions.


Product Description

Our Status product line falls into the category of SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) or HMI (Human Machine Interface) software. In addition, our technology is hosted providing an Internet of Things (IoT) platform for monitoring of industrial and commercial data.


The Status family of products are a powerful data visualization software package that allows the user to create highly graphical screens and connect the controls on the screens to real-time data. The screens can then be published and viewed by anyone within the company or from the web. The system includes alarming, reporting, workflow, data modelling and calculation services. Users can use a Windows client or any HTML5 enabled device to access the system.


Status has built-in connectivity to real-time OPC (Open Process Control) data (including OPCUA (Unified Architecture)) and can very easily be extended to bind to other types of data. OPC data is primarily used in the manufacturing and process control industries. The market appeal for Status is its ability to connect to a variety of data from hundreds of data sources and display that data in real time.



15




‘Status Machine Edition’ was released in January 2009 as an industrial control and monitoring application for heavy industry and manufacturing. 'Status Enterprise' is a supervisory level version of Machine Edition which was released in January 2014.


While Status Enterprise has been deployed internally behind the firewall of corporate networks, it can also be installed on hosted servers on the web. This allows users to bring data into the system from many different devices located anywhere. The HTML 5 support allows the data to be visualized on almost any device. As such, Status Enterprise is a true IoT (Internet of Things) platform. Starting in February of 2015, B-Scada has begun to present Status Enterprise as an IoT platform known as VoT (Virtualization of Things). The intent of this platform is to open additional markets to B-Scada products, markets that may not be realized if our systems were marketed as SCADA only.


Through the various Internet of Things trade shows attended by B-Scada during the year a number of observations have become apparent. IoT customers are looking for complete solutions. This includes the monitoring software, hardware and consulting services for a turnkey system. In order to address this B-Scada has started the process of providing its own sensors to the IoT market.


We have attracted a number of resellers and system integrators that are now promoting and using the Status product line in commercial settings. We believe that this will result in greater sales and distribution of our software through retail outlets and to original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”s). We are also targeting potential customers to offer customized applications to meet their industry requirements.


B-Scada technology is used to monitor one of the largest subway systems in the world in Seoul, South Korea. The system monitors building automation performance electricity distribution, mining, manufacturing, aquaculture and petrochemical and is also used for line of business applications.


B-Scada Systems are used in the United States and around the world in numerous countries including Germany, Sweden, Taiwan, Kuwait, Malaysia, Chile, Canada, United Kingdom, Italy, Turkey, South Africa, Russia and France.


Consulting

In addition to sales of the Status products, we generate revenue by providing consulting services to companies that wish to extend and customize our technology. We provide .Net development and graphic design services. We also offer training on our systems.


Technology Licensing

In addition to selling our own software products, we also license the technology we have developed to other software companies. Long-term licenses to multinational software companies are a major part of our business.  The lead time for our engineers to work with theirs in developing successful integration of our software with their future products is fairly long - from nine months to two years - but the result is a multiyear high revenue license providing substantial income for us for years to come.  We have several such agreements in place with Fortune 500 companies, and agreements with smaller firms.


The products developed using B-Scada’s technology include industrial automation solutions, medical applications, smart grid, building automation and line of business applications. The relationships established through licensing are very strategic and may lead to acquisitions to prevent competitive companies from having the same strategic benefits.


Growth Strategy

B-Scada software can collect vital information of what is happening with the system it is monitoring. This data can be very valuable for such activities as scheduling, predictive maintenance and manufacturing execution as well as providing for real-time business process management data to executive-level personnel. Our growth strategy is to grow our software offerings beyond SCADA and provide a more complete and valuable offering to our customers. These additional software products may be developed in house as the company grows, or added through a business acquisition. Additional capital may be needed to finance such an acquisition, either through debt or equity public or private offerings. There is no assurance that, if needed, we will be able to raise capital in an amount necessary to finance such acquisition or finance such acquisition on acceptable terms.





16




One new area B-Scada is looking at is IoT (Internet of Things). The software products we offer fit very well with this new growth industry. In 2015 we have started new marketing and product initiatives in this space using our existing technology. From various trade shows we have attended, it has become obvious that many potential IoT customers are looking for turnkey solutions and do not want to develop them themselves. In line with meeting these needs, we plan on offering additional products alongside our software, including sensors, and will be expanding our efforts to partner with other companies in the IoT space to help deliver more complete solutions to the market.


On May 1, 2015, B-Scada signed an agreement with an electronic manufacturing firm for the development of B-Scada sensors. As mentioned, it has become apparent that customers are looking for a complete IoT solution instead of trying to piece together a solution from various vendors. While some sensor companies have software for viewing their sensor data, the software is very limited in its abilities and can only be used with data from that one company. B-Scada software will be able to work with B-Scada sensors as well as sensors and hardware from hundreds of other companies, allowing for the development of a sophisticated system aggregating data from many different hardware sources into custom solutions for commercial and industrial customers.


B-Scada currently has companies that are evaluating Status Enterprise as a data visualization solution to be marketed and sold with their existing hardware and/or software products. There is some integration work required before these systems will be available on the market, but the opportunities look promising.


Revenue Strategy

We sell our SCADA software products to system integrators and commercial customers for visually monitoring and archiving their industrial data. Often, we are asked to provide technical expertise in the form of software development, graphics design and consulting services along with the software we provide our customers. We currently sell our SCADA products directly over the Internet from our website and through resellers to end users and system integrators.


Our IoT initiatives include offering hosted services through a SAAS (Software as a Service) model. This opens up B-Scada to a much larger market than SCADA alone and provides additional revenue streams using technology already developed by B-Scada.  These hosted offerings will be driven by the sale of lightweight commercial sensors owned by B-Scada and sold to the market through online sales, resellers, retailers and system integrators.


We are currently generating revenues by licensing portions of our technology to different software companies, which technology they in turn use in their software products. These license agreements are long term arrangements providing consistent revenue to B-Scada.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The preparation of the financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosures. Though we evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis, our actual results may differ from these estimates.


Certain of our accounting policies that we believe are the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and that require management’s subjective judgments are described below to facilitate a better understanding of our business activities. We base our judgments on our experience and assumptions that we believe are reasonable and applicable under the circumstances.


Revenue Recognition - Our revenues are recognized in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 985-605 “Revenue Recognition” for the software industry. Revenue from the sale of software licenses is recognized when standardized software modules are delivered to and accepted by the customer, the license term has begun, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectability is probable.  Revenue from software maintenance contracts and Application Service Provider (“ASP”) services are recognized ratably over the lives of the contracts. Revenue from professional services is recognized when the service is provided.









17



We enter into revenue arrangements in which a customer may purchase a combination of software, maintenance and support, and professional services (multiple-element arrangements).  When vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value exists for all elements, we allocate revenue to each element based on the relative fair value of each of the elements.  VSOE of fair value is established by the price charged when that element is sold separately.  For maintenance and support, VSOE of fair value is established by renewal rates, when they are sold separately.  For arrangements where VSOE of fair value exists only for the undelivered elements, we defer the full fair value of the undelivered elements and recognize the difference between the total arrangement fee and the amount deferred for the undelivered items as revenue, assuming all other criteria for revenue recognition have been met.


Technology Development - We capitalize costs to develop technology for sale once technological feasibility is established. Costs incurred to establish technological feasibility are charged to expense when incurred. Capitalization of technology costs cease when the related products are available for sale and at this time the capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product.

Revenues


Our revenues for the three months ended January 31, 2016 amounted to $404,182 compared to fiscal 2015 revenues of $496,144, a decrease of $91,962 (19%). The primary decline in revenue is due to losses in the petrochemical sector. In fiscal 2016, we had a decrease in technology licensing revenues $94,408 which was offset by an increase in commercial software revenues of $2,446. The growth in software revenues is due to the increase in marketing activities over the past 12 months, trade show attendance in particular. While we see software revenues holding over the next couple of quarters, our investment in marketing activities has been greatly reduced compared to last year.

Our cloud based services are now generating recurring revenue in a SaaS model. Deployments include cloud based monitoring of data centers, boilers and generators. The system is also being used for building automation for monitoring temperature and water detection. Another project that may come on line soon will be monitoring steam traps and man holes.


Our line of wireless sensors was to move into manufacturing, with a target completion date of March 31. Testing of the units and feedback from our system integrators indicated that the current range of the units (100-400ft) may not be adequate for many applications. The communications of the units are now being reworked to more powerful chips which will increase the range. These more powerful chips will result in the units requiring FCC testing and certification. The shipping dates of the sensors is expected to slip by 8-10 weeks. Our plans now are for a formal launch to be done at the national Sensors Expo and Conference June 21-23, 2016 at the McEnery Convention Center, San Jose, CA. We do not yet know how much of a boost our new line of sensors and related monitoring services will add to our annual revenue.


Operating Expenses

Technology licensing and support costs consist of payroll and related expenses.  Technology licensing and support costs amounted to $0 in the three months ended January 31, 2016 compared to $40,880 in the three months ended January 31, 2015 a decrease of $40,880 (100%).  The decrease was due to the loss of a license in the petrochemical sector.


As a percentage of technology licensing and support revenues the related costs decreased to 0% in fiscal 2016 as compared to 9% of such revenues in fiscal 2015. The decrease to zero was due to the loss in the petrochemical sector for technology license support.


Commercial software costs consist primarily of payroll and related expenses. Commercial software costs amounted to $124,277 in the three months ended January 31, 2016 compared to $131,144 in the three months ended January 31, 2015 a decrease of $6,867 (5%).


Commercial software costs were 133% of commercial software revenues in fiscal 2016 and 145% in fiscal 2015. Overall these costs represented 31% of fiscal 2016 revenues compared to 26% of fiscal 2015 revenues.  The 5% decrease was due to staff reductions.


Sales and marketing costs have decreased to $87,026 in the three months ended January 31, 2016 from $145,309 in the three months ended January 31, 2015, a decrease of $58,283 (40%). Payroll and related costs decreased to $65,424 ($8,340 Spain) from $67,659 ($12,452 Spain) and advertising, marketing and trade shows decreased to $21,602 from $68,778. This decrease was a result due to marketing budgets cuts and staff reductions.


Research and development costs increased to $52,239 in the three months ended January 31, 2016 from $26,129 in the three months ended January 31, 2015, an increase of $26,110 (100%). Payroll and related costs increased from fiscal 2015 as we continue to work on new features for our products.


General and administrative costs decreased to $184,975 in the three months ended January 31, 2016 from $362,370 in the three months ended January 31, 2015, a decrease of $177,395 (49%). The decrease was primarily related to a one-time charge related to the establishment of our office in Spain of $144,606 as well as payroll and related staff reduction.


Interest and Debt Costs


Interest expense decreased to $1,263 in the three months ended January 31, 2016 from $1,464 in the three months ended January 31, 2015 which relates to the mortgage on our office building.


Income Tax Benefit


In the three months ended January 31, 2016, we recorded a deferred income tax benefit of $14,727. US operations recorded a tax benefit of $18,868 and Spanish operations utilized a deferred tax benefit of $4,141. In the three months ended January 31, 2015, we recorded a deferred tax benefit of $66,318.  US operations recorded a tax benefit of $11,067 and Spanish operations recorded a tax benefit of $55,251.

Net Loss


Net loss in the three months ended January 31, 2016 totaled $35,730 (Spain incurred net income of $9,664) compared to a net loss of $148,548 ($128,876 Spain) in the three months ended January 31, 2015, a decrease of $112,818.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


We currently fund our operations through sales of our products and services and when necessary through sales of equity and debt securities.


At January 31, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,437,974 compared to $840,777 at October 31, 2015. The increase of $597,197 is primarily attributable to cash generated from a private placement of the company’s common stock.


Cash Flows


Net cash used in operating activities amounted to $8,861 and $450,460 in the three months ended January 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.


In the three months ended January 31, 2016 investing activities we used $59,210 for the development of our sensor and for the three months ended January 31, 2015, we used $1,505 for the acquisition of property and equipment.


In the three months ended January 31, 2016 and 2015 financing activities, we used $4,143 and $3,940, respectively in cash for principal payments on the mortgage incurred from the purchase of our office facility.  Additionally, in fiscal 2016 we received $670,000 in cash from the sale of 3,350,000 shares of common stock at $0.20 per share.


We believe that our cash on hand at January 31, 2016 and our revenue commitments will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months. We have signed significant licensing agreements and continue to market our products and services in accordance with our strategic business plan. There is no assurance that the income generated from these and future agreements will meet our working capital requirements, or that we will be able to sign significant agreements in the future.


Contractual Obligations


The information to be reported under this item is not required of smaller reporting companies.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


As of January 31, 2016, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-17, “Income Taxes” (Topic 740), which revises the balance sheet classification of deferred taxes. Currently, entities are required to separate deferred tax assets and liabilities into current and noncurrent amounts on the balance sheet, ASU No. 2015-17 requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as all noncurrent on the balance sheet. The amendments in the ASU may be applied either retrospectively or prospectively. The effective date will be the first quarter of our fiscal year ended October 31, 2018. We have elected to prospectively apply the guidance in ASU No. 2015-17 effective with our fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2015.


In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015 -14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606) which deferred the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09.  The effective date of the provisions in ASU No. 2014-09 will now be the first quarter of our fiscal year ended October 31, 2019.





20




In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, and most industry-specific guidance. This ASU is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.  The ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract.  The amendments in the ASU will be applied using one of two retrospective methods. The effective date will be the first quarter of our fiscal year ended October 31, 2018.


Management does not believe that any other recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have an effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.


ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

 

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer (“CEO”) and principal financial officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information that is required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


(b) Management’s Assessment of Internal Control over Financial Reporting


Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act.  Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that internal controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.


Management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2016.  In making this assessment, management used the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).  The objective of this assessment is to determine whether our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of January 31, 2016.  Based on our assessment utilizing the criteria issued by COSO, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of January 31, 2016.  Managements assessment identified the following material weaknesses:


·

As of January 31, 2016, there was a lack of accounting personnel with the requisite knowledge of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) in the U.S. and financial reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC).

·

As of January 31, 2016, there were insufficient written policies and procedures to insure the correct application of accounting and financial reporting with respect to the current requirements of GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.

·

As of January 31, 2016, there was a lack of segregation of duties, in that we only had one person performing all accounting-related duties.

·

As of January 31, 2016, there were no independent directors and no independent audit committee.


We continue to evaluate the effectiveness of internal controls and procedures on an on-going basis.  We will address these concerns in time, taking into consideration the Company’s size and its available resources.


During the most recently completed fiscal quarter, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
