CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements contained in this Form 10-Q other than statements of historical fact, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, our business strategy and plans, and our objectives for future operations, are forward-looking statements. The words “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short-term and long-term business operations and objectives, and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those described in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in this Form 10-Q. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the future events and trends discussed in this Form 10-Q may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements.
 
We undertake no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to these forward-looking statements, except as required by law. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.
 
Unless expressly indicated or the context requires otherwise, “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and “TOMI” refer to TOMI Environmental Solutions, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
 
 
Item 1. Financial Statements.
 
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited for the interim periods, but include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments), which we consider necessary for the fair presentation of results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016.
 
Moreover, these condensed consolidated financial statements do not purport to contain complete disclosure in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements as of, and for the year ended December 31, 2015.
 
The results reflected for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year ending December 31, 2016.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein, presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles utilized in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and stated in U.S. dollars, have been prepared by the Company, without an audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
 
These financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2015 and notes thereto which are included in the Form 10-K previously filed with the SEC on March 30, 2016. The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports.
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TOMI, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, TOMI Environmental Solutions, Inc., a Nevada Corporation. The Company’s 55% owned subsidiary, TOMI Environmental-China, has been dormant since its formation in April 2011. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior-year comparative financial statements to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations or financial position.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to the accounts receivable, fair values of financial instruments, intangible assets, useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, fair values of stock-based awards, income taxes, and contingent liabilities, among others. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of our assets and liabilities.
 
Fair Value Measurements
 
The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or the most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal market that are (i) independent, (ii) knowledgeable, (iii) able to transact, and (iv) willing to transact. The guidance describes a fair value hierarchy based on the levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, which are the following:
 
 
9
 
 
Level 1:
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2:
Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or corroborated by observable market data or substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
 
Level 3:
Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the value of the assets or liabilities.
 
The Company’s financial instruments include cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses. All these items were determined to be Level 1 fair value measurements.
 
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximated fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand held at financial institutions and other liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
 
Accounts Receivable
 
Our accounts receivable are typically from credit worthy customers or, for certain international customers, are supported by pre-payments. For those customers to whom we extend credit, we perform periodic evaluations of them and maintain allowances for potential credit losses as deemed necessary. We have a policy of reserving for doubtful accounts based on our best estimate of the amount of potential credit losses in existing accounts receivable. We periodically review our accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account may be in doubt. Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. Bad debt expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 was $50,084 and $155,080, respectively. Bad debt expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $0 and $24,082, respectively.
 
At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $200,000 and $45,000, respectively.
 
As of September 30, 2016, one customer accounted for 12% of accounts receivable. Three customers accounted for 32% of net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and two customers accounted for 26% of net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
 
As of December 31, 2015 three customers accounted for 42% of accounts receivable. Two customers accounted for 30% and 23% of net revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively.
 
Inventories
 
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Inventories consist primarily of finished goods and raw materials. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we did not have a reserve for slow-moving or obsolete inventory.
 
Deposits on Merchandise
 
Deposits on merchandise primarily consist of amounts incurred or paid in advance of the receipt of inventory. (See note 11)
 
Property and Equipment
 
We account for property and equipment at cost less accumulated depreciation. We compute depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three to five years. Depreciation for equipment, furniture and fixtures and vehicles commences once placed in service for its intended use. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the lives of the respective leases or service lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter.

Deferred Financing Costs
 
The Company follows authoritative guidance for accounting for financing costs as it relates to convertible debt issuance cost. These costs are deferred and amortized over the term of the debt period or until redemption of the convertible debentures. Amortization of deferred financing costs amounted to approximately $0 and $0 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. Amortization of deferred financing costs amounted to approximately $0 and $200,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.
 
Accounts Payable
 
As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, one vendor accounted for approximately 57% and 72% of total accounts payable, respectively.
 
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, one vendor accounted for 63% and 76% of cost of goods sold, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, one vendor accounted for 72% and 80% of cost of goods sold, respectively.
 
Accrued Warranties
 
Accrued warranties represent the estimated costs, if any, that will be incurred during the warranty period of our products. We make an estimate of expected costs that will be incurred by us during the warranty period and charge that expense to the consolidated statement of operations at the date of sale. Our manufacturer assumes warranty against product defects for one year which we extend to our customers. We assume responsibility for product reliability and results. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company did not establish a warranty reserve.
 
Income taxes
 
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The measurement of deferred income tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits, which are, on a more likely than not basis, not expected to be realized; in accordance with ASC guidance for income taxes. Net deferred tax benefits have been fully reserved at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that such tax rate changes are enacted.
 
Loss Per Share
 
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the Company’s net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period presented. Diluted loss per share is based on the treasury stock method and includes the effect from potential issuance of common stock such as shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of warrants and conversions of debentures.
 
Potentially dilutive securities as of September 30, 2016, consisted of 36,826,413 shares of common stock from outstanding warrants, 200,000 shares of common stock from options and 510,000 shares of common stock from convertible Series A preferred stock. Diluted and basic weighted average shares are the same, as potentially dilutive shares are anti-dilutive.
 
Potentially dilutive securities as of September 30, 2015, consisted of 35,601,413 common shares from outstanding warrants, 100,000 common shares from options and 510,000 common shares from convertible Series A preferred stock. Diluted and basic weighted average shares are the same, as potentially dilutive shares are anti-dilutive.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
For revenue from services and product sales, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” (SAB No. 104), which superseded Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (SAB No. 101). SAB No. 104 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) service has been rendered or delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management’s judgment regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the services rendered or products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts to customers, and allowance, and other adjustments will be provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded.

Stock-Based Compensation
 
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), ASC 718, Compensation- “Stock Compensation.” Under the provisions of FASB ASC 718, stock-based compensation cost is estimated at the grant date based on the award’s fair value and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company had one active stock-based compensation plan, the TOMI Environmental Solutions, Inc. Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the “2008 Plan”). The 2008 Plan calls for the Company, through a committee of its board of directors, to issue up to 2,500,000 shares of restricted common stock or stock options. The Company generally issues grants to its employees, consultants, and board members. Stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the closing price of its common stock on the date of the grant with a term no greater than 10 years. Generally, stock options vest over two to four years. Incentive stock options granted to shareholders who own 10% or more of the Company’s outstanding equity securities are granted at an exercise price that may not be less than 110% of the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant and have a term no greater than five years. On the date of a grant, the Company determines the fair value of the stock option award and recognizes compensation expense over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the award. The fair value of the stock option award is calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. On August 25, 2015, the 2008 Plan was terminated.
 
On January 29, 2016, the board of directors adopted the 2016 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2016 Plan”) subject to its approval by stockholders. The 2016 Plan authorizes the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance units / shares. Up to 5,000,000 shares of common stock are authorized for issuance under the 2016 Plan. Shares issued under the 2016 Plan may be either authorized but unissued shares, treasury shares, or any combination thereof. Provisions in the 2016 Plan permit the reuse or reissuance by the 2016 Plan of shares of common stock for numerous reasons, including, but not limited to, shares of common stock underlying canceled, expired, or forfeited awards of stock-based compensation and stock appreciation rights paid out in the form of cash. Stock-based compensation will typically be awarded in consideration for the future performance of services to the Company. All recipients of awards under the 2016 Plan are required to enter into award agreements with the Company at the time of the award; awards under the 2016 Plan are expressly conditioned upon such agreements. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, there were 100,000 stock options issued out of the plan.
 
Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions which exceed the current Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) limit of $250,000 at times during the year.
 
Long-Lived Assets Including Acquired Intangible Assets
 
The Company assesses long-lived assets for potential impairments at the end of each year, or during the year if an event or other circumstance indicates that we may not be able to recover the carrying amount of the asset. In evaluating long-lived assets for impairment, the Company measures recoverability of these assets by comparing the carrying amounts to the future undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If the Company’s long-lived assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized equals the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair market value. The Company bases its calculations of the estimated fair value of its long-lived assets on the income approach. For the income approach, the Company uses an internally developed discounted cash flow model that include, among others, the following assumptions: projections of revenues and expenses and related cash flows based on assumed long-term growth rates and demand trends; expected future investments to grow new units; and estimated discount rates. We base these assumptions on our historical data and experience, industry projections, micro and macro general economic condition projections, and our expectations. We have had no long-lived asset impairment charges for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.
 
Advertising and Promotional Expenses
 
The Company expenses advertising costs in the period in which they are incurred. Advertising and promotional expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, were approximately $22,000 and 109,000, respectively. Advertising and promotional expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, were approximately $18,000 and 25,000, respectively.
 
Research and Development Expenses
 
The Company expenses research and development expenses in the period in which they are incurred. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, research and development expenses were approximately $93,000 and $120,000, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, research and development expenses were approximately $33,000 and $75,000, respectively.

Shipping and Handling Costs
 
The Company includes shipping and handling costs relating to the delivery of products directly from vendors to the Company in cost of sales. Shipping and handling costs, which include third-party delivery costs relating to the delivery of products from the Company to customers, are classified as a general and administrative expense. Shipping and handling costs included in general and administrative expense were $33,000 and $105,000 for the three and nine months ended September, 30, 2016, respectively. Shipping and handling costs included in general and administrative expense were $3,000 and $22,000 for the three and nine months ended September, 30, 2015, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09) “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)”, and requires entities to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflect the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes (ASU 2015-17), which simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by requiring that deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as non-current. We retrospectively adopted this standard as of December 31, 2015. As a result, there was no impact to the Company’s results of operations.
 
In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 (ASU 2016-02) “Leases.”  ASU 2016-02 provides new lease accounting guidance.  ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period.  Early adoption is permitted.  We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09 (ASU 2016-09) “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718).”  ASU 2016-09 provides improvements to employee share-based payment accounting.  ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-09 on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 6. CONVERTIBLE DEBT
 
In November 2012, the Company initiated a private placement offering a maximum of 240 Units (as defined below) of the Company’s securities at a price of $25,000 per Unit or $6,000,000. The initial closing of the offering occurred in April 2013 as the bulk of the net proceeds of the offering were to be allocated for the asset purchase from L-3 Applied Technologies, Inc., which was finalized April 2013. Each Unit consisted of $25,000 par amount of a 10% Senior Secured Callable Convertible Promissory Note due and payable on July 31, 2015 (the “Notes”) and 37,500 warrants each of which allows the investor to purchase one share of common stock and expires on July 31, 2018. Interest was payable on the Notes at a rate of 10% per annum, and payable on July 31st and January 31st.  The Notes were secured by the Company’s intellectual property such as the patents, royalties, receivables of the Company and all equipment except for the new equipment acquired with the proceeds from any future financing that is initially secured by this new equipment. The Notes called for the establishment of a sinking fund. Within 45 days of each calendar quarter 15% of the Company’s reported revenue was required to be deposited into the Company’s escrowed sinking fund account.
 
The Company sold 202.96 Units for gross proceeds of $5,074,000 and issued warrants to purchase up to 7,611,000 shares of common stock in connection with the Units. Net proceeds amounted to $4,462,693 after expenses of offering totaling $611,307. In addition, the placement agent received warrants to purchase up to 1,014,800 shares of common stock valued at $165,180.
   
The Notes were convertible, at the option of the note holder, into shares of our common stock at an initial conversion price of $.29 (which conversion price is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of events specified in the Notes, including stock dividends, stock splits, certain fundamental corporate transactions, and certain issuances of common stock by the Company).
 
The warrants are exercisable into shares of common stock (the “Warrant Shares”) at an initial exercise price of $0.30 (which may be subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the warrants). 
 
The Company evaluated the warrants under ASC 815-40-15 due to the exercise price being adjustable upon certain events occurring. The Company determined that the warrants are considered indexed to the Company’s own common stock and thus meet the scope exception under FASB ASC 815-10-15-74 and are therefore not considered a derivative. The estimated fair value of the warrants, which contain reset provisions, were calculated using the Monte Carlo valuation model. The Company recorded the warrants’ relative fair value of $956,712 as an increase to additional paid in capital and a discount against the related debt.
 
The Notes contained a provision whereby the conversion price is adjustable upon the occurrence of certain events, including the issuance of common stock or common stock equivalents at a price which is lower than the current conversion price. Under FASB ASC 815-40-15-5, the embedded conversion feature was not considered indexed to the Company’s own common stock and, therefore, did not meet the scope exception in FASB ASC 815-10-15 and thus needed to be accounted for as a derivative liability. The initial fair value of the embedded conversion feature was estimated at $7,316,092 and recorded as a derivative liability, resulting in an additional discount of $4,117,288 to the Notes and a finance charge of $3,198,804 included in the statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2013. The fair value of the embedded conversion feature was estimated at the end of each quarterly reporting period using the Monte Carlo model.
 
Inherent in the Monte Carlo Valuation model are assumptions related to expected volatility, remaining life, risk-free rate and expected dividend yield. For the Notes using a Monte Carlo model, we estimate the probability and timing of potential future financing and fundamental transactions as applicable. The Company applied various assumptions into the Monte Carlo Valuation models to determine the change in the fair value of the derivative liability as of the retirement dates of the Notes.
 
The debt discount was amortized over the life of the convertible note using the effective interest method and was fully amortized upon the retirement of the convertible notes during the quarter ended June 30, 2015.
 
In June 2015, the Company offered the noteholders options to convert to cash or at a reduced conversion price on the Notes from $.29 per share provided the conversion feature was exercised prior to June 30, 2015. If the noteholder agreed to lock up the converted shares for six (6) months or an uplist to a market on the NYSE or NASDAQ Stock Market, LLC, whichever is shorter, the conversion price was reduced to $.26 per share. Absent the lock up, the noteholder could convert at $.275 per share. All noteholders except two converted at $.26. Pursuant to the terms of the conversion offer, an aggregate of $3,774,000 of the Notes and $124,000 of accrued interest were converted into 14,913,968 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company recognized an induced conversion cost of $930,383 related to all conversions and retirements.

In addition, during the quarter ended June 30, 2015, an aggregate of $1,300,000 of the Notes and $87,500 in accrued interest were repaid in the form of cash.

NOTE 7. FAIR VALUE
 
             Level 3 financial instruments consist of certain embedded conversion features. The fair value of these embedded conversion features that have exercise reset features are estimated using a Monte Carlo valuation model. The Company adopted the disclosure requirements of ASU 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurements.” (See note 6) The unobservable input used by the Company was the estimation of the likelihood of a reset occurring on the embedded conversion feature of the Convertible Notes. These estimates of the likelihood of completing an equity raise that would meet the criteria to trigger the reset provisions are based on numerous factors, including the remaining term of the financial instruments and the Company’s overall financial condition.
 
The following table summarizes the changes in fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial instruments for the period ended September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. Upon the retirement of the Notes in June 2015, the fair value of the derivative liability was $0.

Changes in the unobservable input values would likely cause material changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial instruments. The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement is the estimation of the likelihood of the occurrence of a change to the conversion price based on the contractual terms of the financial instruments. A significant increase (decrease) in this likelihood would result in a higher (lower) fair value measurement. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the balance of derivative liability was $0 as the Notes were retired during the second quarter of 2015.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
 
You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and with our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, as filed with the SEC. In addition to our historical condensed consolidated financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, particularly in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors.”
 
Overview
 
TOMI is a leading provider of infection prevention and decontamination products and services, focused primarily on life sciences including healthcare, bio-safety, pharmaceutical, clean-room and research. Our mission is to help our customers create a healthier world thru TOMI’s product line. TOMI’s motto is “innovating for a safer world” for healthcare and life.
 
We are a global decontamination and infectious disease control company, providing environmental solutions for indoor and outdoor surface decontamination through the sale of equipment, services and licensing of our SteraMistTM Binary Ionization Technology® (“BIT™”) hydrogen peroxide based mist and fogs.
 
Brought to the commercial market in June 2013, TOMI’s current suite of products incorporates BIT™ Solution and applicators including the SteraMist™ Surface Unit and the SteraMist™ Environment System. Current SteraMist™ BIT™ Technology has expanded beyond chemical and biological warfare applications to deactivate problem microorganisms (including spores) in a wide variety of commercial settings. SteraMist™ BIT™ provides fast acting biological deactivation and works in even the most hard-to-reach areas while leaving no residue or noxious fumes. The by-products of the AIHP are oxygen and water (humidity).
 
TOMI currently targets domestic and international markets for the control of microorganisms and the decontamination of large and small indoor space for biological pathogens and chemical agents including infectious diseases in hospital, bio-secure labs, pharmaceutical, biodefense, biosafety including isolation and transfer chambers, tissue banks, food safety and many other commercial and residential settings.
 
In June 2015, SteraMist™ BIT™ was registered with the EPA as a hospital-healthcare disinfectant for use as a misting/fogging agent. The EPA registered solution and equipment combination provides the unique technology of converting a low percentage hydrogen peroxide into an activated ionized hydrogen peroxide consisting mostly of hydroxyl radicals for Hospital-Healthcare disinfecting and general disinfecting (EPA Registration 90150-2). SteraMist™ BIT™ also holds a second EPA registration for mold control and air & surface remediation (EPA Registration 90150-1). In February 2016, the Company expanded its label with the EPA to include the bacteria’s C. diff and MRSA and the virus H1N1 which have better positioned the Company to penetrate the hospital-healthcare and other industries. The Company currently has its EPA registered label in all 50 states with the addition of California and New York in July and October of 2016, respectively. With our label just approved in the state of New York on October of 2016, TOMI now has a clear path for national sales and is in the process of interviewing for a National Healthcare-Hospital sales team.
 
In September of 2016, The Company’s SteraMist™ BIT™ technology passed Good Laboratory Practice (“GLP”) tests in efficacy against Salmonella and Norovirus. The Company also passed testing against TB. The GLP studies will be submitted to the EPA for addition to our existing hospital-healthcare disinfectant label in the near future.
 
In May 2015, the Company was awarded a grant by the United States Agency for International Development (“USAID”) in the amount of $559,000 for the development of SteraMistTM Mobile Decontamination Chambers to fight the Ebola epidemic. The grant is based on milestones set forth in the agreement between the Company and USAID. The Company met the sixth and final milestone in May 2016, which completed the USAID Grant.
 
In June and July 2015, the Company received an $8,000,000 equity investment from Arise Asset Management Pte Ltd in exchange for approximately 17,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Also, in June 2015, the Company retired approximately $5,100,000 in convertible debt. With the $8,000,000 investment received and the retirement of the convertible debt, the Company strengthened its balance sheet, added liquidity and working capital.
 
On the domestic front in 2016, the Company has received orders from the Food and Drug Administration to be used in their laboratory research group, developed and installed our technology in the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, this is a top-ranked infectious disease hospitals in the United States-a customized disinfection system and also completed two follow-up decontamination service treatments. Other sales included the Kansas City University of Medicine and Bioscience for use in the university medical laboratories.
 
The company also won bids to conduct decontamination services at three major global pharmaceutical companies.
 
We have also begun a trial at a large Ivy League College Hospital on the East Coast where our Steramist surface unit is being tested in its operating rooms.

In 2015, the Company launched the TOMI Service Network (“TSN”). This allowed the Company to enhance its service division by creating a national service network composed of existing full service restoration industry specialists. Since the launch of the TSN, the Company has recruited and entered into licensing agreements with 56 geographically and strategically placed companies that will become network hubs to take advantage of the Company’s SteraMistTM platform of products and assist as service providers for the Company’s domestic and international client base and provide regional, national, and international large event mobilization response. In the first quarter of 2016, the Company hired a President and Director of Network Recruitment for the TSN which has contributed to the growth of the TSN in 2016.
 
In October of 2016, the Company hosted a seminar for the TSN members in an effort to provide additional technical training on how to use and sell equipment in the hospital-healthcare environment. The seminar was sold out with members in attendance from many of our national TSN companies.
 
On an international front, after registration efforts our technology is being used and tested in Childcare facilities, Clean-Rooms and Pharmaceutical facilities in many countries. In addition, during 2015 and 2016, the Company continued to expand its global presence through the shipments of goods into Asia, Europe, Mexico, South America and Australia. In January 2016, the Company entered into a distributor relationship with SteraMist Asia to facilitate growth in the Asian region.
 
In February 2016, the Company appointed Robert Wotczak as President to strengthen the executive team and help accelerate the Company’s corporate goals. In addition, the Company added three new independent members to the Company’s board of directors to support the growth of the Company.
 
In September 2016, the Company upgraded to the OTCQX Best Market in effort to elevate the profile of the business among the financial community.
 
The Company’s net revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was approximately $4,528,000 compared to $2,433,000 for the same period in 2015, representing an increase of 86%.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The estimation process requires assumptions to be made about future events and conditions, and as such, is inherently subjective and uncertain. Actual results could differ materially from our estimates.
 
The SEC defines critical accounting policies as those that are, in management’s view, most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and most demanding of our judgment. We consider the following policies to be critical to an understanding of our consolidated financial statements and the uncertainties associated with the complex judgments made by us that could impact our results of operations, financial position and cash flows.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
 For revenue from services and product sales, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” (SAB No. 104), which superseded Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (SAB No. 101). SAB No. 104 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) service has been rendered or delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management’s judgment regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the services rendered or products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts to customers, and allowance, and other adjustments will be provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded.

Fair Value Measurement
 
The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or the most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal market that are (i) independent, (ii) knowledgeable, (iii) able to transact, and (iv)willing to transact. The guidance describes a fair value hierarchy based on the levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, which are the following:
 
Level 1:
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2:
Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or corroborated by observable market data or substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
 
Level 3:
Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the value of the assets or liabilities.
 
The Company’s financial instruments include cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses. All these items were determined to be Level 1 fair value measurements.
 
The carrying amounts of cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximated fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand held at financial institutions and other liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
 
Accounts Receivable
 
Our accounts receivable are typically from credit worthy customers or, for certain international customers, are supported by pre-payments. For those customers to whom we extend credit, we perform periodic evaluations of them and maintain allowances for potential credit losses as deemed necessary. We have a policy of reserving for doubtful accounts based on our best estimate of the amount of potential credit losses in existing accounts receivable. We periodically review our accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account may be in doubt. Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.
 
Inventories
 
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Inventories consist primarily of finished goods and raw materials
 
Property and Equipment
 
We account for property and equipment at cost less accumulated depreciation. We compute depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three to five years. Depreciation for equipment, furniture and fixtures and vehicles commences once placed in service for its intended use. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the lives of the respective leases or service lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter.
 
Deferred Financing Costs
 
The Company follows authoritative guidance for accounting for financing costs as it relates to convertible debt issuance cost. These costs are deferred and amortized over the term of the debt period or until redemption of the convertible debentures.
 
 
28
 
 
Accrued Warranties
 
Accrued warranties represent the estimated costs, if any, that will be incurred during the warranty period of our products. We make an estimate of expected costs that will be incurred by us during the warranty period and charge that expense to the consolidated statement of operations at the date of sale. Our manufacturer assumes warranty against product defects for one year which we extend to our customers. We assume responsibility for product reliability and results.
 
Income taxes
 
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The measurement of deferred income tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits, which are, on a more likely than not basis, not expected to be realized; in accordance with ASC guidance for income taxes. The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that such tax rate changes are enacted.
 
Loss Per Share
 
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the Company’s net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period presented. Diluted loss per share is based on the treasury stock method and includes the effect from potential issuance of common stock such as shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of warrants and conversions of debentures.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), ASC 718, Compensation- “Stock Compensation.” Under the provisions of FASB ASC 718, stock-based compensation cost is estimated at the grant date based on the award’s fair value and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company had one active stock-based compensation plan, TOMI Environmental Solutions, Inc. Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the “2008 Plan”). The 2008 Plan calls for the Company, through a committee of its board of directors, to issue up to 2,500,000 shares of restricted common stock or stock options. The Company generally issues grants to its employees, consultants, and board members. Stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the closing price of its common stock on the date of the grant with a term no greater than 10 years. Generally, stock options vest over two to four years. Incentive stock options granted to shareholders who own 10% or more of the Company’s outstanding equity securities are granted at an exercise price that may not be less than 110% of the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant and have a term no greater than five years. On the date of a grant, the Company determines the fair value of the stock option award and recognizes compensation expense over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the award. The fair value of the stock option award is calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. On August 25, 2015 the 2008 plan was terminated.
 
On January 29, 2016, the board of directors adopted the 2016 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2016 Plan”) subject to its approval by stockholders. The 2016 Plan authorizes the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance units / shares. Up to 5,000,000 shares of common stock are authorized for issuance under the 2016 Plan. Shares issued under the 2016 Plan may be either authorized but unissued shares, treasury shares, or any combination thereof. Provisions in the 2016 Plan permit the reuse or reissuance by the 2016 Plan of shares of common stock for numerous reasons, including, but not limited to, shares of common stock underlying canceled, expired, or forfeited awards of stock-based compensation and stock appreciation rights paid out in the form of cash. Stock-based compensation will typically be awarded in consideration for the future performance of services to the Company. All recipients of awards under the 2016 Plan are required to enter into award agreements with the Company at the time of the award; awards under the 2016 Plan are expressly conditioned upon such agreements
 
Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions which exceed the current Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) limit of $250,000 at times during the year.
 
Long-Lived Assets Including Acquired Intangible Assets
 
We will review our intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. We will measure recoverability of these assets by comparing the carrying amounts to the future undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If intangible assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized equals the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair market value.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09) “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)”, and requires entities to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is not permitted. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes (ASU 2015-17), which simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by requiring that deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as non-current. We have retrospectively adopted this standard as of December 31, 2015, and as a result there was no impact to the Company as all of the deferred tax assets for the year ended December 31, 2014 were classified as noncurrent.
 
In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 (ASU 2016-02) “Leases.”  ASU 2016-02 provides new lease accounting guidance.  ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period.  Early adoption is permitted.  We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09 (ASU 2016-09) “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718).”  ASU 2016-09 provides improvements to employee share-based payment accounting.  ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-09 on our consolidated financial statements.

These expenses represent selling salaries and wages, trade show fees, commissions and marketing expenses. We increased our marketing efforts during the three months ended September 30, 2016. In addition, these costs increased for the three months ended September 30, 2016 as the result of the hiring of an internal sales staff in an effort to increase revenue.

The increase compared to the prior period relates to additional product testing conducted in the third quarter of 2016.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
            As of September 30, 2016, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1,288,000 and working capital of $6,210,000. 
 
            Our principal capital requirements are to fund operations, invest in research and development and capital equipment, and the continued costs of public company filing requirements. We have historically funded our operations through debt and equity financings.  In June and July 2015, we completed private placements and received net proceeds of approximately $8,000,000. In June 2015, we redeemed and converted all of the Notes by issuing approximately 14,900,000 shares of common stock, and $1,300,000 in cash.
 
            In September of 2016 the Company’s shares were up listed to the OTCQX Best Market. The Company intends to further uplist to a national stock exchange.  We understand there are qualitative and quantitative benchmarks that will need to be met in order to get listed on a national stock exchange.  This could require us to raise additional capital in order to meet the quantitative benchmarks. There can be no assurance that we will be able to satisfy these qualitative and quantitative benchmarks or raise additional capital on terms favorable to the Company, if at all.
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, we incurred losses from operations of approximately $2,763,000 and $2,829,000, respectively.  The cash used in operations amounted to approximately $4,180,000 and $1,803,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.  The Company could incur additional operating losses from lack of revenues and an increase of costs related to the continuation of product and technology development and administrative activities.
 
Management of the Company has taken and will endeavor to continue to take a number of actions in order to improve the Company’s results of operations and the related cash flows generated from operations in order to get the Company to a stronger financial position.  These actions include the following items:
 
Expanding our label with the EPA to include the bacteria’s C. diff and MRSA and the virus H1N1 in the EPA stamped registration.  In February 2016, the Company achieved the amended registration and feels it could allow TOMI to change the way our product is marketed in the United States Hospital-Healthcare verticals that could lead to further market penetration for the Company.
Continued expansion and efforts to expand our internal salesforce and manufacturer representatives in an effort to drive domestic revenue in all Hospital-Healthcare verticals.
Expansion of international distributors.  In January 2016, the Company announced the distributor relationship with Steramist Asia to facilitate growth in the Asian region, specifically Mainland China and Indo-China excluding South Korea, Japan and Australia/New Zealand.
Continued growth of the TSN.  In January 2016, the Company hired a President and Director of Network Recruitment for TSN in order to increase TSN’s internal salesforce which therefore increased membership.  TSN currently has a total of 56 members and 32 members have been added year to date.
 
We believe that our existing balance of cash and cash equivalents and amounts expected to be provided by operations will provide us with sufficient financial resources to meet our cash requirements for operations, working capital and capital expenditures over the next twelve months.  However, in the event of unforeseen circumstances, unfavorable market developments or unfavorable results from operations, there can be no assurance that the above actions could be successfully implemented as expected, and cash flows may be adversely affected.  Our sales cycle has come down but could exceed approximately 4-6 months and it’s possible we may not be able to generate sufficient revenue in the next twelve months to cover our operating and compliance costs. We may also need to raise additional debt or equity financing to execute on the commercialization of our product plans. We cannot make any assurances that management’s strategies will be effective or that any additional financing will be completed on a timely basis, on acceptable terms or at all. Our inability to successfully implement our strategies or to complete any other financing may mean that we would have to significantly reduce costs and/or delay projects, which would adversely affect our business, customers and program development, and would adversely impact the Company.
 
The Company’s analysis of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, is as follows:
 
Operating activities
 
Cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 was approximately $4,180,000 and $1,803,000, respectively. Cash used in operating activities increased $2,377,000 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2015, primarily due to increased inventory offset by increased accounts payable compared to the same period ended in the prior year.

Investing Activities
 
Cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, amounted to approximately $449,000 and $54,000. Cash used in investing activities increased $395,000 compared to the period in the prior year, primarily due to service equipment purchased in 2016.
 
Financing Activities
 
Cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 amounted to $0.
 
Cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 amounted to approximately $7,490,000 primarily from the proceeds of the issuance of common stock and warrants of $8,735,000 offset by the repayment of principal for a portion of the convertible notes of $1,300,000. In addition, the Company incurred a finder’s fee of approximately $51,000 in connection with the issuance of the stock for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
 
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
