PRECISION OPTICS CORPORATION, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

1.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Principles of Consolidation and Operations

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Precision Optics Corporation, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, without audit, and reflect normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results of the second quarter and six months of the Company’s fiscal year 2017. These consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures associated with annual consolidated financial statements and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with footnotes contained in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2016 together with the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm filed under cover of the Company’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 28, 2016.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

Income (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income or net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income or net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, plus the number of potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period such as stock options and warrants. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the effect of such securities was antidilutive and not included in the diluted calculation because of the net loss generated in these periods.

 

The following is the calculation of loss per share for the three and six months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015:

 

		Three Months Ended December 31								Six Months Ended December 31
		2016				2015				2016				2015
Net Income (Loss) – Basic and Diluted		$	(312,095	)		$	(281,310	)		$	(605,503	)		$	(663,200	)
Basic Weighted Average Shares Outstanding			8,104,800				7,230,169				7,822,191				6,809,988
Potentially Dilutive Securities			–				–				–				–
Diluted Weighted Average Shares Outstanding			8,104,800				7,230,169				7,822,191				6,809,988
Loss Per Share
Basic		$	(0.04	)		$	(0.04	)		$	(0.08	)		$	(0.10	)
Diluted		$	(0.04	)		$	(0.04	)		$	(0.08	)		$	(0.10	)

 

The number of shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants that were excluded from the computation as their effect was antidilutive was approximately 5,113,224 and 4,478,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and approximately 5,113,224 and 4,478,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

 

 

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

In assessing the likelihood of utilization of existing deferred tax assets, management has considered historical results of operations and the current operating environment. Based on this evaluation, a full valuation reserve has been provided for the deferred tax assets.

 

2.	INVENTORIES

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market and consisted of the following:

 

		December 31, 2016				June 30, 2016
Raw Materials		$	572,318			$	520,490

Finished Goods			208,279				229,072
Total Inventories		$	1,097,891			$	1,133,451

 

3.	CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATION

 

The Company entered into a five-year capital lease obligation in January 2016 for the acquisition of manufacturing equipment totaling $51,252. At December 31, 2016, future minimum lease payments under the capital lease obligation are as follows:

 

Fiscal Year Ending June 30:		Amount
2017		$	5,125
2018			10,250
2019			10,250
2020			10,250
2021			5,126
Total minimum payments			41,001
Less: amount representing interest			5,053
Present value of minimum lease payments			35,948
Less: current portion			8,120
		$	27,828

 

4.	STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

Stock-based compensation costs recognized during the quarters ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 amounted to $49,532 and $42,105 respectively, and the costs were included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations in: selling, general and administrative expenses (2016 - $34,171; 2015 - $24,121), research and development expenses (2016 - $6,692, 2015 - $9,316) and cost of goods sold (2016 - $8,669; 2015 - $8,668). Stock-based compensation costs recognized during the six month periods ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 amounted to $110,433 and $142,428, respectively, and were included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations in: selling, general and administrative expenses (2016 - $77,086; 2015 - $60,378), research and development expenses (2016 - $16,009, 2015 - $38,707) and cost of goods sold (2016 - $17,338, 2015 - $43,343). No compensation has been capitalized because such amounts would have been immaterial.

5.	SALE OF STOCK

 

November 2016

 

On November 22, 2016, the Company entered into agreements with accredited investors for the sale and purchase of 1,333,334 units with each unit consisting of one share of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value and one warrant to purchase one-half of one share of the Company’s common stock, at a purchase price of $0.60 per unit. The Company received $780,000 in gross cash proceeds from the offering and settled an outstanding accounts payable balance with a consultant in the amount of $20,000 by issuing units. The Company is using the net proceeds from this placement for general working capital purposes.

 

The warrants issued in this offering will vest on October 2, 2017 and expire on October 16, 2017. The warrant exercise price is variable and depends on the Company’s achievement of certain performance criteria (both defined below). The warrant exercise price will be $0.40 per share if the Company achieves both of the revenue and income performance criteria, the exercise price will be $0.20 per share if the Company achieves one of the performance criteria, and the exercise price will be $0.01 if the Company does not achieve either of the performance criteria.

 

Pursuant to the revenue criterion, the Company must achieve at least $1.85 million of revenue in any one quarter during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2017. Pursuant to the income criterion, the Company must achieve positive net income in any two quarters during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2017. Both criteria will be determined under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and by the Company’s audited consolidated annual financial statements and the Company’s quarterly financial statements.

 

 

 

 

In conjunction with the offering, the Company also entered into a registration rights agreement with the investors, whereby the Company was obligated to file a registration statement with the Securities Exchange Commission on or before 90 calendar days after November 22, 2016 to register the resale by the investors of the 1,333,334 shares and warrant shares purchased in the offering. The registration statement was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 3, 2017.

 

In conjunction with the offering, certain anti-dilution provisions of the warrants issued in conjunction with our June 25, 2008 and September 28, 2012 financing transactions were triggered. For purposes of this calculation, all warrants issued in this offering are assumed to be exercised at an exercise price of $0.40. As a result, the number of existing June 25, 2008 warrants increased from 517,222 to 568,776 and the related exercise price of the warrants decreased from $0.98 to $0.89 per share. Also, as a result of the offering, the number of existing September 28, 2012 warrants increased from 2,293,013 to 2,503,237 and 222,559 to 240,144, respectively, and the related exercise price decreased from $1.06 to $0.97 and from $0.83 to $0.77, respectively.

 

October 2015

  

On October 19, 2015, the Company entered into agreements with accredited investors for the sale and purchase of 1,044,776 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.01 par value at a purchase price of $0.67 per share. The Company received $700,000 in gross proceeds from the offering. The Company used the net proceeds from this placement for general working capital purposes.

 

In conjunction with the placement, the Company also entered into a registration rights agreement with the investors, whereby the Company was obligated to file a registration statement with the Securities Exchange Commission on or before 90 calendar days after October 19, 2015 to register the resale by the investors of the 1,044,776 shares of the Company’s common stock purchased in the placement. The registration statement was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 19, 2016 and became effective on February 1, 2016.

 

In conjunction with the offering, certain anti-dilution provisions of the warrants issued in conjunction with the Company’s June 25, 2008 and September 28, 2012 financing transactions were triggered. As a result, the number of existing June 25, 2008 warrants increased from 493,398 to 517,222 and the related exercise price of the warrants decreased from $1.03 to $0.98 per share. Also, as a result of the offering, the number of existing September 28, 2012 warrants increased from 2,189,724 to 2,293,013 and 217,322 to 222,559, respectively, and the related exercise price decreased from $1.11 to $1.06 and from $0.85 to $0.83, respectively.

 

6.	SALE OF ASSETS

 

During the six months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company sold equipment that was previously written off for proceeds totaling $1,515 and $18,468, respectively, and recorded gains of $1,515 and $18,468, respectively, which are included within operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

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

 

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to those statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2016 and with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2016 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 28, 2016.

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. When used in this report, the words “expects,” “anticipates,” “suggests,” “believes,” “intends,” “estimates,” “plans,” “projects,” “continue,” “ongoing,” “potential,” “expect,” “predict,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.  Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the risks described in this report, the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2016 and other reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, they relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made.  We do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this report to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations, except as required by law.

 

Overview

 

We have been a developer and manufacturer of advanced optical instruments since 1982. Today, the vast majority of our business is the design and manufacture of high-quality medical devices and approximately 5% of our business is the design and manufacture of military and industrial products. Our medical instrumentation line includes traditional endoscopes and endocouplers as well as other custom imaging and illumination products for use in minimally invasive surgical procedures. Much of our recent development efforts have been targeted at the development of next generation endoscopes. For the last ten years, we have funded internal research and development programs to develop next generation capabilities for designing and manufacturing 3D endoscopes and very small Microprecision™ lenses, anticipating future requirements as the surgical community continues to demand smaller and more enhanced imaging systems for minimally invasive surgery.

  

Our unique proprietary technology in the areas of micro optical lenses and prisms, micro medical fiber and CMOS based cameras, and custom design of medical grade instruments, combined with recent developments in the areas of 3D displays, has allowed us to begin commercialization of related product and service offerings to a widening group of customers addressing various medical device, defense and aerospace applications. We believe that new products based on these technologies provide enhanced optical and imaging qualities for many uses including existing surgical procedures and development of new procedures enabled by the small size and image quality of our camera modules.

 

We are registered to the ISO 9001:2008 and ISO 13485:2003 Quality Standards and comply with the FDA Good Manufacturing Practices and the European Union Medical Device Directive for CE marking of our medical products. Our internet website is www.poci.com. Information on our website is not intended to be integrated into this report.

 

The markets in which we do business are highly competitive and include both foreign and domestic competitors. Many of our competitors are larger and have substantially greater resources than we do. Furthermore, other domestic or foreign companies, some with greater financial resources than we have, may seek to produce products or services that compete with ours. We routinely outsource specialized production efforts as required to obtain the most cost effective production. Over the years, we have achieved extensive experience collaborating with other optical specialists worldwide and since the 1990s, we have maintained a presence in Asia, specifically Hong Kong, to support business and quality control activities throughout the region as needed.

 

We believe that competition for sales of our medical products and services, which have been principally sold to original equipment manufacturers, or OEM, customers, is based on our ability to design and produce technical features, performance, engineering service and production scheduling, on-time delivery, quality control and product reliability, and competitive pricing.

 

 

 

 

 

We believe that our future success depends to a large degree on our ability to develop new optical products and services to enhance the performance characteristics and methods of manufacture of existing products. Accordingly, we expect to continue to seek and obtain product-related design and development contracts with customers and to selectively invest our own funds on research and development, particularly in the areas of Microprecision™ optics, micro medical cameras and 3D endoscopes.

  

For the year ended June 30, 2016, approximately 62% of our sales were made to seven customers. Of these, three are large, international, medical device companies who have been our customers for many years. These three customers continue to purchase products that we developed over five years ago, and both now purchase new products that were developed and launched into production by us more recently. The other four top customers purchase products that we developed in recent years, and which rely heavily on our unique, proprietary Microprecision™ lens technology and optical visualization system expertise.

 

Current sales and marketing activities are intended to broaden awareness of the benefits of our new technology platforms, which we believe are ready for general application to medical device projects requiring surgery-grade visualization from sub-millimeter sized devices and 3D endoscopy. We market directly to established medical device companies primarily in the United States that we believe could benefit from our advanced endoscopy visualization systems. Through this direct marketing, referrals, attendance at trade shows including Medical Design and Manufacturing West and MD&M East, and periodically a presence in online professional association websites, we have expanded our on-going pipeline of projects to significant medical device companies as well as well-funded emerging technology companies. We expect our customer pipeline to continue to expand as development projects transition to production orders and new customer projects enter the development phase.

 

General

 

This management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our unaudited consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies as disclosed in the Notes to our Financial Statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2016 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 28, 2016.

 

Results of Operations

 

Our total revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2016, the second quarter of our fiscal year 2017, were $601,590, as compared to $954,772 for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of $353,182, or 37.0%. Revenues decreased during the quarter ended December 31, 2016 in both the engineering and production categories. Engineering service revenue decreased 39%, primarily due to the transition to production of one project and completion of initial phases of another customer’s project which is expected to continue in the future. Production category revenues decreased in both the traditional and new technology groups, primarily due to the loss of a subassembly customer project utilizing Microprecision™ technology, and cyclical declines in a traditional laryngoscope and an advanced surgical visualization product.

 

Our total revenues for the six months ended December 31, 2016 were $1,451,138, as compared to $1,813,199 for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of $362,061, or 20.0%. The decrease in revenues for the six month period was primarily due to a decrease in production revenues while engineering service revenue slightly increased during the six month period ended December 31, 2016. Production revenues decreased due to the loss of a customer’s Microprecision™ technology product and cyclical declines in traditional laryngoscopes, partially offset by an increase in the advanced surgical visualization product. We believe that our pipeline of engineering and production project opportunities, as well as on-going product production demand from our customers, will return quarterly revenues to the higher levels achieved in recent quarters.

 

 

 

 

 

Gross profit for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 was $148,407, as compared to $217,022 for the same period in the prior year, which reflects a decrease of $68,615. Gross profit for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 as a percentage of our revenues was 24.7%, an increase from the gross profit percentage of 22.7% for the same period in the prior year. Gross profit for the six months ended December 31, 2016 was $315,458, as compared to $349,360 for the same period in the prior year, which reflects a decrease of $33,902. Gross profit for the six months ended December 31, 2016 as a percentage of our revenues was 21.7%, an increase from the gross profit percentage of 19.3% for the same period in the prior year. The increase in our gross profit percentage in the most recent quarter and six months was due primarily to increased margins realized from production of three traditional products comprising 43% of production revenue during the six months ended December 31, 2016, plus the reduction in fixed production costs realized from the shut-down of our film coating department in early fiscal 2017. Comparative margins also improved in fiscal 2017 due to the elimination of manufacturing inefficiencies and reduced margins in fiscal 2016 from the subassembly product referenced above that is no longer produced by us. Further, our quarterly gross profit and gross profit percentage depend on a number of factors, including overall sales volume, the mix of products sold, and the costs of initial production in connection with new products. We believe our margins will increase further as periodic sales revenues increase.

 

Research and development expenses were $119,215 for the quarter ended December 31, 2016, compared to $108,146 for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $11,069, or 10.2%. The increase in the quarter ended December 31, 2016 compared to same period in the prior year was primarily due to the decrease in our engineering services revenue. As a result of decreases in engineering revenue, a smaller portion of our fixed engineering cost is included in cost of goods sold and remains in research and development expenses. Research and development expenses were $236,207 for the six months ended December 31, 2016, compared to $258,914 for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of $22,707, or 8.8%. The decrease in the six month period ended December 31, 2016 compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to higher engineering service revenue in the current period, partially offset by higher stock-based compensation expenses during the six months ended December 31, 2015.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $342,487 for the quarter ended December 31, 2016, compared to $407,088 for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of $64,601, or 15.9 %. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $686,269 for the six months ended December 31, 2016, compared to $772,114 for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of $85,845, or 11.1%. The decrease in the quarter and six month periods ended December 31, 2016 compared to the same periods in the prior year was primarily due to reduced consulting, travel and advertising expenses, partially offset by higher stock-based compensation expense.

 

No income tax provision was recorded in the first and second quarters of fiscal year 2017 or 2016 because of the losses generated in those periods.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We have sustained recurring net losses for several years. During the quarter and six month periods ended December 31, 2016, we incurred net losses of $312,095 and $605,503, respectively, and used cash in operating activities of $279,441 during the six month period ended December 31, 2016. As of December 31, 2016, cash and cash equivalents were $516,578, accounts receivable were $442,087, and current liabilities were $1,377,411. We also incurred net losses of $281,310 and $663,200 during the quarter and six month periods ended December 31, 2015, and during the six month period ended December 31, 2015, we used cash in operating activities of $524,931. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, we incurred a net loss from operations of $1,055,434 and used cash in operating activities of $876,298. As of June 30, 2016, cash and cash equivalents were $50,059, accounts receivable were $750,380, and current liabilities were $1,503,961.

 

We have traditionally funded working capital needs through product sales, management of working capital components of our business, and by cash received from public and private offerings of our common stock, warrants to purchase shares of our common stock or convertible notes. We have incurred quarter to quarter operating losses during our efforts to develop current products including Microprecision™ optical elements, micro medical camera assemblies and 3D endoscopes. Our management believes that the opportunities represented by these products have the potential to generate sales increases to achieve breakeven and profitable results.

 

Until we achieve and sustain breakeven and profitable results, we will be required to pursue several options to manage cash flow and raise capital, including issuing debt or equity or entering into a strategic alliance. The sale of additional equity or convertible debt securities would result in additional dilution to our current stockholders, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants that could restrict our operations or finances. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to secure additional capital, we may be required to curtail our research and development initiatives and take additional measures to reduce costs in order to conserve our cash in amounts sufficient to sustain operations and meet our obligations. If we cannot raise funds on acceptable terms or achieve positive cash flow, we may not be able to continue to develop new products, grow market share, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements, any of which could negatively impact our business, operating results and financial condition, or impact our ability to continue to conduct operations as a going concern.

 

On November 22, 2016, we closed agreements with institutional and accredited investors for the sale and purchase of 1,333,334 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $0.60 per share (see Note 5. Sale of Stock). We received $780,000 in gross cash proceeds from the offering. We are using the net proceeds from this placement for general working capital purposes.

 

Capital equipment expenditures during the six months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 were $25,843 and $4,372, respectively. Future capital equipment expenditures will be dependent upon future sales and success of on-going research and development efforts.

 

We have contractual cash commitments related to open purchase orders as of December 31, 2016 of approximately $202,000, including a $41,001 commitment remaining under a five-year capital lease obligation for the acquisition of equipment (see Note 3. Capital Lease Obligation). We have no other contractual cash commitments since leased facilities are currently on a month-to-month basis.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

As a smaller reporting company, as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, we are electing scaled disclosure reporting obligations and therefore are not required to provide the information requested by this Item.

 

 

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, including internal control over financial reporting, were not effective, as of December 31, 2016, to ensure the information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (i) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our disclosure controls and procedures are intended to be designed to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2016.

 

The following is a description of two material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting:

 

Segregation of Duties: As previously disclosed in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2008-2016, our management identified a control deficiency during the 2008 fiscal year because we lacked sufficient staff to segregate accounting duties. We believe the control deficiency resulted primarily because we have the equivalent of one and one-half persons performing all accounting-related on-site duties. As a result, we did not maintain adequate segregation of duties within our critical financial reporting applications, the related modules and financial reporting processes. This control deficiency could result in a misstatement of balance sheet and income statement accounts in our interim or annual consolidated financial statements that would not be detected. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness. During the period beginning with fiscal year 2008 through June 30, 2016, no audit adjustments resulting from this condition were required.

 

To address and remediate the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described above, beginning with the quarter ended September 30, 2008, we instituted a procedure whereby our Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Financial Officer and other members of our Board of Directors perform a higher level review of the quarterly and annual reports on Form 10-Q and Form 10-K prior to filing.

 

We believe that the step outlined above strengthens our internal control over financial reporting and mitigates the material weakness described above. As part of our assessment of internal control over financial reporting for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, our management has evaluated this additional control and has determined that it is operating effectively.

 

Inventory Valuation: As previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, we reported a material weakness with respect to the valuation of our inventories. Specifically, the amounts used to value our inventory at June 30, 2009 with respect to overhead rates and purchased items were often inconsistent with the supporting documentation, due to year-to-year changes in overhead rates and costs of purchased items that were not properly reflected in inventory valuation. Accordingly, management had determined that this control deficiency constituted a material weakness as of June 30, 2009. One audit adjustment of approximately $58,000 to our audited financial statements as of June 30, 2011 was necessary as a result of this condition.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the first quarter of our fiscal year covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

To address and remediate the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described above, beginning in the quarter ended September 30, 2009 and continuing through the quarter ended December 31, 2016, we implemented processes to improve our inventory controls and documentation surrounding inventory valuation for overhead rates, and performed procedures to ensure that the pricing of inventory items was consistent with the supporting documentation. We believe that the step outlined above strengthens our internal control over financial reporting and mitigates the material weakness described above.

 

We intend to continue to remediate material weaknesses and enhance our internal controls but cannot guarantee that our efforts will result in remediation of our material weaknesses or that new issues will not be exposed in this process.

 

 

 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

Our Company, on occasion, may be involved in legal matters arising in the ordinary course of our business. While management believes that such matters are currently insignificant, matters arising in the ordinary course of business for which we are or could become involved in litigation may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. We are not aware of any pending or threatened litigation against us or our officers and directors in their capacity as such that could have a material impact on our operations or finances.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 28, 2016.

 

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

 

November 2016

 

On November 22, 2016, we entered into agreements with accredited investors for the sale and purchase of 1,333,334 units with each unit consisting of one share of our common stock, $0.01 par value and one warrant to purchase one-half of one share of our common stock, at a purchase price of $0.60 per unit. We received $780,000 in gross cash proceeds from the offering. We are using the net proceeds from this placement for general working capital purposes.

The warrants issued in this offering will vest on October 2, 2017 and expire on October 16, 2017. The warrant exercise price is variable and depends on our achievement of certain performance criteria (see Note 5. Sale of Stock).

  

In conjunction with the offering, we also entered into a registration rights agreement with the investors, whereby we were obligated to file a registration statement with the Securities Exchange Commission on or before 90 calendar days after November 22, 2016 to register the resale by the investors of the 1,333,334 shares and warrant shares purchased in the offering. The registration statement was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 3, 2017.

 

We relied on the Section 4(a)(2) exemption from securities registration under the federal securities laws for transactions not involving any public offering. No advertising or general solicitation was employed in offering the securities. The securities were issued to accredited investors. The securities were offered for investment purposes only and not for the purpose of resale or distribution, and the transfers thereof was appropriately restricted by us.
