PURADYN FILTER TECHNOLOGIES INCORPORATED

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)


1.

Basis of Presentation, Going Concern and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Organization


Puradyn Filter Technologies Incorporated (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, is engaged in the manufacturing, distribution and sale of bypass  oil filtration systems under the trademark Puradyn® primarily to companies within targeted industries. The Company holds the exclusive worldwide manufacturing and marketing rights for the Puradyn products through direct ownership of various patents.


Basis of Presentation


The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-K. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of a normal and recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 may not necessarily be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016.


For further information, refer to the Company's financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.


Revenue Recognition


The Company recognizes revenue from product sales to customers, distributors and resellers when products that do not require further services or installation by the Company are shipped, when there are no uncertainties surrounding customer acceptance and when collectability is reasonably assured in accordance with FASB ASC 605, Revenue Recognition, as amended and interpreted. Cash received by the Company prior to shipment is recorded as deferred revenue. Sales are made to customers under terms allowing certain limited rights of return and other limited product and performance warranties for which provision has been made in the accompanying financial statements.


Amounts billed to customers in sales transactions related to shipping and handling, represent revenues earned for the goods provided and are included in net sales. Costs of shipping and handling are included in cost of products sold.


Use of Estimates


The preparation of condensed financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and notes payable to stockholder approximate their fair values as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, because of their short-term natures.




4



PURADYN FILTER TECHNOLOGIES INCORPORATED

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)



Accounts Receivable


Accounts receivable are recorded at fair value on the date revenue is recognized. The Company provides allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to repay their obligation. If the financial condition of the Company's customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to repay, additional allowances may be required. The Company provides for potential uncollectible accounts receivable based on specific customer identification and historical collection experience adjusted for existing market conditions. If market conditions decline, actual collection experience may not meet expectations and may result in decreased cash flows and increased bad debt expense.


The policy for determining past due status is based on the contractual payment terms of each customer, which are generally net 30 or net 60 days. Once collection efforts by the Company and its collection agency are exhausted, the determination for charging off uncollectible receivables is made.


Inventories


Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using the first in, first out (FIFO) method. Production costs, consisting of labor and overhead, are applied to ending finished goods inventories at a rate based on estimated production capacity. Excess production costs are charged to cost of products sold. Provisions have been made to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their net realizable value.


Property and Equipment


Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, except for assets held under capital leases, for which the Company records depreciation and amortization based on the shorter of the asset’s useful life or the term of the lease. The estimated useful lives of property and equipment range from 3 to 5 years. Upon sale or retirement, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are eliminated from their respective accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is included in results of operations. Repairs and maintenance charges, which do not increase the useful lives of the assets, are charged to operations as incurred.


Patents


Patents are stated at cost. Amortization is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the patents. The estimated useful lives of patents are 17-20 years. Upon retirement, the cost and related accumulated amortization are eliminated from their respective accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is included in results of operations.


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets


Management assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets when indicators of impairment are present. If such indicators are present, recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing the undiscounted net cash flows estimated to result from those assets over the remaining life to the assets’ net carrying amounts. If the estimated undiscounted net cash flows are less than the net carrying amount, the assets would be adjusted to their fair value, based on appraisal or the present value of the undiscounted net cash flows.


Product Warranty Costs


As required by FASB ASC 460, Guarantor’s Guarantees, the Company is including the following disclosure applicable to its product warranties.



5



PURADYN FILTER TECHNOLOGIES INCORPORATED

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)



The Company accrues for warranty costs based on the expected material and labor costs to provide warranty replacement products. The methodology used in determining the liability for warranty cost is based upon historical information and experience.  The Company's warranty reserve is included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed financial statements and is calculated as the gross sales multiplied by the historical warranty expense return rate. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, there was no change to the reserve for warranty liability as the reserve balance was deemed sufficient to absorb any warranty costs that might be incurred from the sales activity for the period.


The following table shows the changes in the aggregate product warranty liability for the six -months ended June 30, 2016:


Balance as of December 31, 2015

Less: Payments made

 

 

 

Add: Provision for current period warranties

 

 

 

Balance as of June 30, 2016 (unaudited)

 

$

Advertising Costs


Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. During the three and six months ended June, 2016 and 2015, advertising costs incurred by the Company totaled approximately $301 and $761, $1,115 and $0, respectively, and are included in selling and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.


Research and Development


Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, research and development costs incurred by the Company totaled $0, $2,809, and $2,113 and $4,223, respectively, and are included in selling and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.


Income Taxes


The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.


Stock Option Plans


We adopted FASB ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, effective January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective application method of adoption which requires us to record compensation cost related to unvested stock awards as of December 31, 2005 by recognizing the amortized grant date fair value in accordance with provisions of FASB ASC 718 on straight line basis over the service periods of each award. We have estimated forfeiture rates based on our historical experience. Stock option compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2015 has been recognized as a component of cost of goods sold and general and administrative expenses in the accompanying financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.


The Company leases its employees from a payroll leasing company. The Company’s leased employees meet the definition of employees as specified by FASB Interpretation No. 44 for purposes of applying FASB ASC 718.

Stock options and warrants issued to consultants and other non-employees as compensation for services provided to the Company are accounted for based on the fair value of the services provided or the estimated fair market value of the option or warrant, whichever is more reliably measurable in accordance with FASB ASC 505, Equity, and FASB ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, including related amendments and interpretations. The related expense is recognized over the period the services are provided.


Credit Risk


The Company minimizes the concentration of credit risk associated with its cash by maintaining its cash with high quality federally insured financial institutions. However, cash balances in excess of the FDIC insured limit of $250,000 are at risk. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, the Company did not have cash balances above the FDIC insured limit. The Company performs ongoing evaluations of its significant trade accounts receivable customers and generally does not require collateral. An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained against trade accounts receivable at levels which management believes is sufficient to cover probable credit losses. The Company also has some customer concentrations, and the loss of business from one or a combination of these significant customers, or an unexpected deterioration in their financial condition, could adversely affect the Company’s operations.  Please refer to Note 14 for further details.


Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share


FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, requires a dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. However, because of the Company's net losses, the effect of outstanding stock options and warrants would be anti-dilutive and, accordingly, is excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share. The number of such shares excluded from the computation of loss per share were 5,251,196 and 5,187,135 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.


Reclassifications


Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In July 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory” more closely align the measurement of inventory in GAAP with the measurement of inventory in International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).  The amendments in this ASU do not apply to inventory that is measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method. The amendments apply to all other inventory, which includes inventory that is measured using first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost. An entity should measure inventory within the scope of this Update at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using LIFO or the retail inventory method. For public business entities, this ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, this ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The amendments in this ASU should be applied prospectively with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual 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.

In August 2015, FASB issued ASU No.2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date” defers the effective date ASU No. 2014-09 for all entities by one year. Public business entities, certain not-for-profit entities, and certain employee benefit plans should apply the guidance in Update 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. All other entities should apply the guidance in Update 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. All other entities may apply the guidance in ASU No. 2014-09 earlier as of an annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. All other entities also may apply the guidance in Update 2014-09 earlier as of an annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning one year after the annual reporting period in which the entity first applies the guidance in ASU No. 2014-09. 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.


All other newly issued accounting pronouncements not yet effective have been deemed either immaterial or not applicable.

Going Concern


The Company's financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has sustained losses since inception through June 30, 2016 of $60,611,938, has a working capital deficit of $996,180 and $1,016,765 at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.  The Company used net cash in operations of $668,601 and $684,100 during the six-months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. As a result, the Company has had to rely principally on stockholder loans to fund its activities to date.


These recurring operating losses, liabilities exceeding assets and the reliance on cash inflows from two stockholders led the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Liggett & Webb, P.A., to include a statement in its audit report relating to the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 expressing substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

ITEM 2.

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


Overview


We focus our sales strategy on individual sales and distribution efforts as well as on the development of a global distribution network that will sell, install and support our product. In the second quarter of 2016, there were a total of 48 distributors, including their branch outlets and dealers that sold the Puradyn system in the U.S. and internationally.  


DistributionNow (DNOW) recently joined the Puradyn distributor network and now provides the potential to consistently support our product on a global basis, with 300 locations worldwide.  The addition of DNOW as our new distributor for the industries they serve increases our worldwide coverage and brings immediate name recognition of quality products and dedication to customer service.  The majority of our sales to DNOW are through its main distribution center located in the southwest U.S.  The initial rollout of the product has been extremely encouraging and these opportunities have led to new orders and evaluations in 2016.


Sales of the Company’s products, the Puradyn® bypass oil filtration system and replaceable filter elements, depend principally upon end user demand for such products.  Developing market acceptance for the Company’s existing and new products requires substantial marketing and sales efforts and the expenditure of a significant amount of funds to inform customers of the benefits and cost advantages of its products. We continue to market our product and its benefits through direct contact efforts with our distributors, direct customers, and original equipment manufacturers.


Our marketing efforts target industries and potential customers willing to consider innovative methods to protect their high-value engine assets, to reduce oil maintenance costs, to reduce engine overhaul costs and to reduce engine downtime.  We believe that these businesses are searching for new and progressive ways to better maintain their equipment using bypass oil filtration. While this is a long-term and ongoing process, we believe we have achieved a degree of product acceptance based on the expansion of existing strategic relationships we have with Nabors Industries, Inc., Scandrill, Inc., and other end-users and distributors, including:


·

Over the past year we have been developing a hydraulic filtration system which can handle hydraulic power units with volumes ranging from 88 gal. (333.1 L) to 1,200 gal. (4,542.5 L).  With lab and field testing behind us, we are now introducing these systems to our existing and potential customers.  It is too early in the process to know whether or not sales of the hydraulic system will be significant, however, we are encouraged by the interest received and the fact a limited number of systems have been purchased.


·

Evaluations begun in 2015 in Africa, Asia, Europe, and South America are still currently underway with commercial marine, construction, transportation, and mining applications.


Our revenues historically have not been sufficient to fund our operating expenses.  During the second quarter of 2016 and the six months then ended we maintained our total operating expenses at approximate 2015 levels. We continue to implement measures to preserve our ability to operate, including organizational changes and reductions in personnel.  In addition, as described below, certain key employees continue to defer a portion of their cash compensation in an effort to conserve our cash resources.


We continue to address our liquidity and working capital issues through the utilization of the borrowing agreement with the Company’s Chairman. During the period ended June 30, 2016 we borrowed an additional $763,912 from him, and at June 30, 2016 we owed our Chairman $12,688,529 which represented approximately 86% of our total liabilities. Subsequent to June 30, 2016, he has advanced an additional $150,000 in working capital funding. This loan, which is unsecured, matures on December 31, 2017 and we do not presently have sufficient funds to repay this obligation.  While he has continued to fund our working capital needs and extend the due date of the $6.1 million credit agreement, he is under no contractual obligation to do so and there are no assurances he will continue to make funds available to us or extend the due date of the obligations.  




14



 


We also owe certain of our employees $1,595,306 in deferred cash compensation at June 30, 2016, which represents 78% of our current liabilities on that date.  Since 2005, Messrs. Sandler and Kroger, two of our executive officers, and two other employees have deferred a portion of the compensation due them to assist us in managing our cash flow and working capital needs.  As there is no written agreement with these employees which memorializes the terms of salary deferral, only a voluntary election to do so, it is possible the employees could demand payment in full at any time. We do not have the funds to pay these amounts in entirety, and any demand by these officers and employees for full payment would reduce the amount of funds we have available for our operations.  We could be required to pay these obligations at a time when it is disadvantageous for us, and could result in our inability to satisfy our other obligations as they become due.


If budgeted sales levels are not achieved and/or significant unanticipated expenditures occur, or if we are not able to borrow or raise additional investment capital, we may have to modify our business plan, reduce or discontinue some of our operations or seek a buyer for part of our assets to continue as a going concern through 2016. There can be no assurance we will be able to raise additional capital or that sales will increase to the level required to generate profitable operations to provide positive cash flow from operations. In the event we are unable to secure needed capital, it is possible that stockholders could lose their entire investment in our company.


Going Concern


Our financial statements have been prepared on the basis that we will operate as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred net losses each year since inception and have relied on loans from related parties to fund our operations. These recurring operating losses, liabilities exceeding assets and the reliance on cash inflows from our principal stockholder, as set forth above, have led our independent registered public accounting firm Liggett & Webb, P.A. to include a statement in its audit report relating to our audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities when they become due and to generate profitable operations in the future. There are no assurances that we will have sufficient funds to execute our business plan, pay our obligations as they become due or generate positive operating results.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. The more critical accounting estimates include estimates related to revenue recognition and accounts receivable allowances. We also have other key accounting policies, which involve the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that are significant to understanding our results, which are described in Note 1 to our audited financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


Information concerning recently issued accounting pronouncements is set forth in Note 1 of our notes to condensed financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report.

Results of Operations for the Three-months Ended June 30, 2016 Compared to the Three-months Ended June 30, 2015


Net Sales


Net sales increased 11% in the second quarter of 2016 as compared to the second quarter of 2015 due to a number of customers who purchased the larger product models. We believe certain of our customers and potential customers in targeted markets continue to internally adapt to volatile oil prices and are reluctant to enter into new purchases or evaluations until a certain measure of stability is achieved.  Despite a recent, mild stabilization of oil prices that has brought a modest increase in new unit sales, our net revenues have been declining since 2014 and there are no assurances the increase in sales in the second quarter of 2016 will continue during the balance of 2016 or that we will ever return our net sales to earlier levels, even if oil prices begin rising to 2014 and earlier levels.


Cost of Products Sold


Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, decreased slightly by 1%; from 29% in the second quarter of 2015 to 28% in the second quarter of 2016.  We continue to review cost of materials increases, some of which were passed through to our customers as product price increases in the past few years.


Total Operating Costs


Our total operating costs declined 6% in the second quarter of 2016 from the comparable period in 2015 primarily as a result of the suspension of a service agreement with an outside investor relations media firm and reduced professional fees which were partially offset by increases in salaries and wages.


Salaries and wages increased 4% in the second quarter of 2016 as compared to the second quarter of 2015. The increase was attributable to a new hire in the first quarter of 2016.


Selling and administrative expenses decreased 17% for the second quarter of 2016 from the comparable period in 2015. The following table sets forth the components of selling and administrative expenses:

The slight increase in employee benefits resulted from the impact of vested employee stock option expenses. Travel and marketing expenses decreased due to reduced travel. Our allocation of costs to engineering has decreased as the company has reduced engineering staff.  Investor relations expenses decreased due to termination of a service agreement with an outside investor relations media firm, which was suspended in May 2015.  Other Expenses represents various expenses including communication costs, office supplies and other components of administrative expenses. We anticipate that our selling and administration expenses for the full year 2016 will remain at the same level as for the full year 2015.

Interest Expense


Interest expense increased 25% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to the three month period ended June 30, 2015 primarily due to higher borrowings.


Results of Operations for the Six-months Ended June 30, 2016 Compared to the Six-months Ended June 30, 2015


Net Sales


Net sales decreased 17% during the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to six months ended June 30, 2015 due to certain customers that had purchased the larger product models and who continue to postpone ordering additional systems until oil pricing begins to stabilize and their companies resume production. We believe certain of our customers and potential customers in targeted markets continue to internally adapt to volatile oil prices and are reluctant to enter into new purchases or evaluations until a certain measure of stability is achieved.  Our net revenues have been declining since 2014 and there are no assurances the increase in sales in the second quarter of 2016 will continue during the balance of 2016 or that we will ever return our net sales to earlier levels, even if oil prices begin rising to 2014 and earlier levels.


Cost of Products Sold


Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, decreased by 6%, from 34% in the six months ended June 30, of 2015 to 28% in the six months ended June 30, 2016.  The decrease is attributable to reduced sales that resulted in increased overhead allocations.


Total Operating Costs


Our total operating costs declined 4% in the six months ended June 30, 2016 from the comparable period in 2015.


Salaries and wages increased 5% from six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to June 30, 2016.  The increase was attributable to a new hire in the first quarter of 2016.

The decrease in employee benefits resulted from the impact of vested employee stock option expenses. Travel and marketing expenses increased due to increased travel. Our allocation of costs to engineering has decreased as the company has reduced engineering staff. Investor relations expenses decreased due to termination of a service agreement with an outside investor relations media firm, which was suspended in May 2015. The decrease in patent costs was due to certain patent annuities reaching full-term in 2016 against additional patent filings associated with our MTS and future products filed in 2015.  Professional fees increased primarily due to the expense associated with issuance of warrants to a consultant. Other Expenses represents various expenses including communication costs, office supplies and other components of administrative expenses.


Interest Expense


Interest expense increased 26% for the six month period ending June 30, 2016 as compared to the six month period ending June 30, 2015 primarily due to higher borrowings.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


As of June 30, 2016, the Company had cash of $51,028, as compared to $34,471 at December 31, 2015. At June 30, 2016, we had negative working capital of ($996,180) and our current ratio (current assets to current liabilities) was 0.51 to 1.  At December 31, 2015 we had negative working capital of ($1,016,765) and our current ratio was 0.49 to 1. The decrease in working capital deficit and increase in current ratio is primarily attributable to the increase in cash, accounts receivable prepaid and other current expenses, offset by a decrease in inventories and deferred compensation and an increase in accrued liabilities and notes payable - stockholder.


We have incurred net losses each year since inception and at June 30, 2016 we had an accumulated deficit of $60,611,938. Our net sales are not sufficient to fund our operating expenses. Historically, we have relied on loans from related parties to fund our operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2016 we raised an additional $763,912 from stockholder loans and $25,000 from another member of the Board of Directors. Interest expense on our loans was $175,428 for the six months ended June 30, 2016.


Cash Flows  


Operating activities


For the six month period ended June 30, 2016 net cash used in operating activities was $668,601, which primarily resulted from the net loss, after taxes, of $721,970, as found in the Condensed Statement of Operations.  In addition to the cash used in funding the operating loss, the utilization of cash in operations is also attributable to the increase in accounts receivable of $44,520 and, an increase in prepaid expenses of $92,976, increased deferred compensation of $14,279, increased accrued liabilities of $25,921 and reduced accounts payable of $756. The amounts were partially offset by decreased inventory of $94,630 as a result of slower than expected sales.


For the six month period ended June 30, 2015 net cash used in operating activities was $684,100, which primarily resulted from the net loss, after taxes, of $588,142, as found in the Condensed Statement of Operations. In addition to the cash used in funding the operating loss, the utilization of cash in operations is also attributable to the increase in accounts receivable of $37,498 and increased inventory of $184,290 as a result of purchases related to our new MTS product line, an increase in prepaid expenses of $3,794, as well as reduced accounts payable of $26,192. The amounts were partially offset by increased deferred compensation of $45,889 and increased accrued liabilities of $4,552.


Investing activities


For the six months ending June 30, 2016, $101,876 was used in investing activities for the purchase of software and capitalized patent costs. For the six months ending June 30, 2015, $47,484 was used in investing activities for the purchase of software and capitalized patent costs.




18



 


Financing activities


Net cash provided by financing activities was $787,034 for the six months ended June 30, 2016, which was composed of $763,912 in loans from our stockholders as described above, an unsecured loan from a member of the Board of Directors, totaling $25,000 which was partially offset by $1,878 in payments of capital lease obligations. Net cash provided by financing activities was $797,988 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, which was composed of $800,150 in loans from our stockholders as described above, offset by $2,162 in payments of capital lease obligations.


Off Balance Sheet Arrangements


As of the date of this report, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.  The term "off-balance sheet arrangement" generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with us is a party, under which we have any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest or a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


Our management, which includes our CEO, and our Vice President who serves as our principal financial officer, have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-14(c) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of June 30, 2016 (the "Evaluation Date"). Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.


Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, our CEO and our Vice President who also serves as our principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to our company, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Vice President who serves as our principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
