FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and we intend that such forward looking statements be subject to the safe harbors created thereby. For this purpose, any statements contained in this Form 10-Q, except for historical information, may be deemed forward-looking statements. You can generally identify forward-looking statements as statements containing the words “will,” “would,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “assume,” “can,” “could,” “plan,” “predict,” “should” or the negative or other variations thereof or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. In addition, any statements that refer to projections of our future financial performance, trends in our businesses, or other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements.
 
The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations of our management based on available information and involve a number of risks and uncertainties, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. As such, our actual results could differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, some of which are listed under the section “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. Readers should carefully review these risks, as well as the additional risks described in other documents we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In light of the significant risks and uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking information included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that such results will be achieved, and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking information. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to revise the forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

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, 2017 and notes thereto which are included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K previously filed with the SEC on March 29, 2018. The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports. The results of operations for the interim periods covered by this Form 10-Q may not necessarily be indicative of results of operations for the full fiscal year or any other interim period.
 
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. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Reclassification of Accounts
 
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 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 accounts receivable, inventory, 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:
 
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.
 
Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and convertible debt. 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. The recorded value of convertible debt approximates its fair value as the terms and rates approximate market rates (See Note 6).
 
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. At times, these deposits may be in excess of insured limits.
 
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 months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was $0.
 
At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $500,000. 
 
Three customers accounted for 33% of net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and three customers accounted for 43% of net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2017.
 
At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, two customers accounted for 25% and 24% of accounts receivable, 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. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we did not have a reserve for slow-moving or obsolete inventory.
 
Deposits on Merchandise
 
Deposits on merchandise primarily consist of amounts paid in advance of the receipt of inventory (see Note 9).

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.
 
Accounts Payable
 
As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, one vendor accounted for approximately 35% and 45% of total accounts payable, respectively.  
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, one vendor accounted for 70% and 67% 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 the warranty against product defects for one year from date of sale, which we extend to our customers upon sale of the product. We assume responsibility for product reliability and results. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, our warranty reserve was $5,000.
 
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 that are, on a more likely than not basis, not expected to be realized in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) guidance for income taxes. Net deferred tax benefits have been fully reserved at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017. 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.
 
Net Loss Per Share
 
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the Company’s net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period presented. Diluted loss per share is based on the treasury stock method and includes the effect from potential issuance of shares of common stock, such as shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of options and warrants and conversions of preferred stock or debentures.
 
Potentially dilutive securities as of March 31, 2018 consisted of 11,111,100 shares of common stock from convertible debentures, 35,251,411 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants, 320,000 shares of common stock issuable upon outstanding options and 510,000 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of outstanding shares of Preferred A stock (“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 March 31, 2017 consisted of 9,814,805 shares of common stock from convertible debentures, 37,959,745 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants, 200,000 shares of common stock issuable upon outstanding options and 510,000 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of outstanding shares of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock. Diluted and basic weighted average shares are the same, as potentially dilutive shares are anti-dilutive.
 
Diluted net loss per share is computed similarly to basic net loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potential shares of common stock had been issued and if such additional shares were dilutive. Options, warrants, preferred stock and shares associated with the conversion of debt to purchase approximately 47.2 million and 48.5 shares of common stock were outstanding at March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, but were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share due to the anti-dilutive effect on net loss per share.

Revenue Recognition
 
We recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, “Revenue Recognition,” when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, title and risk of loss have passed, delivery has occurred, or the services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured.  Title and risk of loss generally pass to our customers upon shipment.

Product revenue includes sales from our standard and customized equipment, solution and accessories sold with our equipment. Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products or services.

Service and training revenue includes sales from our high-level decontamination and service engagements, validation of our equipment and technology and customer training. Service revenue is recognized as the agreed upon services are rendered to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those services.
 
Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer
 
We apply a practical expedient to expense costs as incurred for costs to obtain a contract with a customer when the amortization period would have been one year or less. We generally expense sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are recorded within sales and marketing expenses. These costs include our internal sales force compensation program and certain partner sales incentive programs as we have determined annual compensation is commensurate with annual sales activities.
 
Contract Balances
 
As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 we did not have any unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.
 
Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations
 
Our contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. We enter into contracts that can include various combinations of products and services, which are primarily distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations.
 
Significant Judgments
 
Our contracts with customers for products and services often dictate the terms and conditions of when the control of the promised products or services is transferred to the customer and the amount of consideration to be received in exchange for the products and services.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), Accounting Standards Codification (“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.
 
On July 7, 2017, our shareholders approved the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”). 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 us. 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 year ended December 31, 2017, the Company issued 200,000 shares of common stock out of the 2016 Plan. In addition, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, we issued 300,000 shares of common stock out of the 2016 Plan.
 
Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. We maintain cash balances at financial institutions which exceed the current Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit of $250,000 at times during the year.
 
 
12
 
 
Long-Lived Assets Including Acquired Intangible Assets
 
We assess 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, we measure recoverability of these assets by comparing the carrying amounts to the future undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If our 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. We base the calculations of the estimated fair value of our long-lived assets on the income approach. For the income approach, we use an internally developed discounted cash flow model that includes, 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 had no long-lived asset impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.
 
Advertising and Promotional Expenses
 
We expense advertising costs in the period in which they are incurred. Advertising and promotional expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were approximately $54,000 and $9,000, respectively.
 
Research and Development Expenses
 
We expense research and development expenses in the period in which they are incurred. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, research and development expenses were approximately $132,000 and $31,000, respectively.
 
Shipping and Handling Costs
 
We include shipping and handling costs relating to the delivery of products directly from vendors to the Company in cost of sales. Other shipping and handling costs, including third-party delivery costs relating to the delivery of products to customers, are classified as a general and administrative expense. Shipping and handling costs included in general and administrative expense were approximately $51,000 and $21,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
 
Business Segments
 
We currently have one reportable business segment due to the fact that we derive our revenue primarily from one product. A breakdown of revenue is presented in “Revenue Recognition” in Note 2 above.
   
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to replace the existing revenue recognition criteria for contracts with customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Deferral of the Effective Date, to defer the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 to interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We adopted ASUs No. 2014-09 and 2015-14 on January 1, 2018 on a modified retrospective basis, which did not impact our beginning accumulated deficit and additional paid-in capital.
 
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, which requires lessees to recognize all leases, with certain exceptions, on the balance sheet, while recognition on the statement of operations will remain similar to current lease accounting. ASU No. 2016-02 also eliminates real estate-specific provisions and modifies certain aspects of lessor accounting. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We currently expect to adopt ASU No. 2016-02 on January 1, 2019. We will be required to recognize and measure leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented using a modified retrospective approach, with certain practical expedients available. We intend to elect the available practical expedients upon adoption. Upon adoption, we expect the consolidated balance sheet to include a right of use asset and liability related to substantially all of our lease arrangements. We are continuing to assess the impact of adopting ASU No. 2016-02 on our financial position, results of operations and related disclosures and have not yet concluded whether the effect on our consolidated financial statements will be material.
 
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, to simplify the accounting for the income tax effects from share-based compensation, the accounting for forfeitures and the accounting for statutory income tax withholding, among others. In particular, ASU No. 2016-09 requires all income tax effects from share-based compensation to be recognized in the consolidated statement of operations when the awards vest or are settled, permits accounting for forfeitures as they occur, and permits a higher level of statutory income tax withholding without triggering liability accounting. Adoption of ASU No. 2016-09 is modified retrospective, retrospective and prospective, depending on the specific provision being adopted. We adopted ASU No. 2016-09 on January 1, 2017, which did not impact our beginning accumulated deficit and additional paid-in capital.
 
 
13
 
 
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, to simplify the test for goodwill impairment by removing Step 2. An entity will, therefore, perform the goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, recognizing an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. An entity still has the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. ASU No. 2017-04 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. Adoption of ASU No. 2017-04 is prospective. We have not yet selected an adoption date, and ASU No. 2017-04 will have a currently undetermined impact on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Scope of Modification Accounting, to provide guidance on which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. ASU No. 2017-09 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. Adoption of ASU No. 2017-09 is prospective. We adopted ASU No. 2017-09 on January 1, 2018, which did not impact our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

NOTE 6. CONVERTIBLE DEBT
 
In March and May 2017, the Company closed a private placement transaction in which it issued to certain accredited investors unregistered senior callable convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) and three-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 999,998 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.69 per share in exchange for aggregate gross proceeds of $6,000,000. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 4% per annum. $5,300,000 in principal was originally scheduled to mature on August 31, 2018 and $700,000 in principal was originally scheduled to mature on November 8, 2018, unless earlier redeemed, repurchased or converted. The Notes are convertible at the option of the holder into common stock at a conversion price of $0.54 per share. Subsequent to September 1, 2017, we may redeem the Notes that are scheduled to mature on August 31, 2018 at any time prior to maturity at a price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest as of the redemption date.  Prior to November 8, 2018, we may redeem the Notes that are scheduled to mature on such date at any time prior to maturity at a price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest as of the redemption date. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in cash on February 28 and August 31 of each year, beginning on August 31, 2017. Interest expense related to the Notes for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was $60,000 and $14,133, respectively.
 
The warrants were valued at $62,559 using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions: expected volatility: 104.06% –111.54%; expected dividend: $0; expected term: 3 years; and risk-free rate: 1.49%–1.59%. The Company recorded the warrants’ relative fair value of $61,904 as an increase to additional paid-in capital and a discount against the related Notes.
 
The debt discount is being amortized over the life of the Notes using the effective interest method. Amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was $8,037 and $137, respectively.
 
In February and March 2018, we extended the maturity date of the Notes—we extended the maturity dates for $5,300,000 of principal on the Notes to April 1, 2019 and $700,000 in principal of the Notes to June 8, 2019. No additional consideration was paid or accrued by the Company. The stated rate of the Notes was unchanged and the estimated fair value of the new debt approximates its carrying amount (principal plus accrued interest at the date of the modification). We determined that the modification of these Notes is not a substantial modification in accordance with ASC 470-50, “Modifications and Extinguishments”.

NOTE 7. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
 
Our board of directors may, without further action by our shareholders, from time to time, direct the issuance of any authorized but unissued or unreserved shares of preferred stock in series and at the time of issuance, determine the rights, preferences and limitations of each series. The holders of such preferred stock may be entitled to receive a preference payment in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company before any payment is made to the holders of our common stock. Furthermore, the board of directors could issue preferred stock with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our common stock.
 
Convertible Series A Preferred Stock
 
Our authorized Convertible Series A Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value, consists of 1,000,000 shares. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were 510,000 shares issued and outstanding. The Convertible Series A Preferred Stock is convertible at the rate of one share of common stock for one share of Convertible Series A Preferred Stock.
 
Convertible Series B Preferred Stock
 
Our authorized Convertible Series B Preferred Stock, $1,000 stated value, 7.5% cumulative dividend, consists of 4,000 shares. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no shares issued and outstanding, respectively. Each share of Convertible Series B Preferred Stock may be converted (at the holder’s election) into two hundred shares of our common stock.
 
Common Stock
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we did not issue any shares of common stock.
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we issued 300,000 shares of common stock valued at $30,000 to members of our board of directors (see Note 9).
 
Stock Options
 
In January 2018, we issued options to purchase an aggregate of 100,000 shares of common stock to our Chief Operating Officer, valued at $11,780. The options have an exercise price of $0.12 per share and expire in January 2023. The options were valued using the Black-Scholes model using the following assumptions: volatility: 146%; dividend yield: 0%; zero coupon rate: 2.27%; and a life of 5 years.
 
In January 2018, we issued options to purchase an aggregate of 20,000 shares of common stock to our scientific advisory board members, valued at $1,810 in total. The options have an exercise price of $0.10 per share and expire in January 2028. The options were valued using the Black-Scholes model using the following assumptions: volatility: 147%; dividend yield: 0%; zero coupon rate: 2.41%; and a life of 10 years.

NOTE 8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
Lease Commitments
 
In September 2014, we entered into a lease agreement for office and warehouse space in Frederick, Maryland. As part of the lease agreement, we received a rent holiday in the first 5 months of the lease. The lease also provided for an escalation clause pursuant to which the Company was subject to an annual rent increase of 3%, year over year. The term of the lease expired on January 31, 2018 and has been extended on a month-to-month basis. We account for the lease using the straight line method and recorded $12,927 and $11,427 in rent expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively
 
Legal Contingencies 
 
We may become a party to litigation in the normal course of business.  In the opinion of management, there are no legal matters involving us that would have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In addition, from time to time, we may have to file claims against parties that infringe on our intellectual property.
 
Product Liability
 
As of March 31, 2018, and December 31, 2017, there were no claims against us for product liability.

NOTE 9. CONTRACTS AND AGREEMENTS
 
Manufacturing Agreement
 
In November 2016, we entered into a manufacturing and development agreement with RG Group Inc. The agreement does not provide for any minimum purchase commitments and is for a term of two years with provisions to extend. The agreement also provides for a warranty against product defects for one year.
 
As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, balances due to RG Group, Inc. accounted for approximately 35% and 45% of total accounts payable, respectively.  At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we maintained required deposits with RG Group, Inc. in the amounts of $15,714 and $0, respectively.  For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, RG Group, Inc. accounted for 70% and 67% of cost of goods sold, respectively.
 
Agreements with Directors
 
In December 2017, we increased the annual board fee to directors to $40,000, to be paid in cash on a quarterly basis, with the exception of the audit committee chairperson, whose annual fee we increased to $45,000, also to be paid in cash on a quarterly basis. The board fee also includes the issuance of 75,000 shares of common stock on an annual basis. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we issued an aggregate of 300,000 shares of common stock that were valued at $30,000 to members of our board of directors.
 
Other Agreements
 
In June 2015, we launched the TOMI Service Network (“TSN”). The TSN is a national service network composed of existing full service restoration industry specialists that have entered into licensing agreements with us to become Primary Service Providers (“PSP’s”). The licensing agreements grant protected territories to PSP’s to perform services using our SteraMist platform of products and also provide for potential job referrals to PSP’s whereby we are entitled to referral fees. Additionally, the agreement provides for commissions due to PSP’s for equipment and solution sales they facilitate to other service providers in their respective territories. As part of these agreements, we are obligated to provide to the PSP’s various training, ongoing support and facilitate a referral network call center. As of March 31, 2018, we had entered into 71 licensing agreements in connection with the launch of the TSN. The licensing agreements contain fixed price minimum equipment and solution orders based on the population of the territories granted pursuant to the licensing agreements. The nature and terms of our TSN agreements may represent multiple deliverable arrangements. Each of the deliverables in these arrangements typically represent a separate unit of accounting.

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, 2017, 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
 
We are a global provider of infection prevention and decontamination products, services and research. Our operating structure consists of four divisions: Healthcare, Life Sciences, TOMI Service Network and Food Safety. We provide environmental solutions for indoor and outdoor surface decontamination through the sale of equipment, services and licensing of our SteraMist BIT, which is a hydrogen peroxide-based mist and fog registered with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”). Our mission is to help our customers create a healthier world through our product line and our motto is “innovating for a safer world” for healthcare and life.
 
We introduced our SteraMist BIT technology platform to the commercial market in June 2013, which currently consists of a suite of products that incorporate our BIT™ solution and applicators, including the SteraMist™ Surface Unit and the SteraMist™ Environment System. We have expanded our SteraMist™ BIT™ Technology beyond chemical and biological warfare applications to the killing of problem microorganisms (including spores) in a wide variety of commercial settings. SteraMist™ BIT™ is designed to provide fast-acting biological six-log kill, which is a 99.9999% kill, and work in hard-to-reach areas, while leaving no residue or noxious fumes.
 
We currently target both 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.
 
Under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act, we are required to register with the EPA and certain state regulatory authorities as a seller of pesticides. In June 2015, SteraMist™ BIT™ was registered with the EPA as a hospital-healthcare disinfectant for use as a misting/fogging agent. SteraMist BIT holds EPA registrations both as a hospital-healthcare and general disinfectant (EPA Registration 90150-2) and for mold control and air and surface remediation (EPA Registration 90150-1). In February 2016, we expanded our label with the EPA to include the bacterias Clostridium difficile and MRSA, as well as the influenza virus h1n1, which we believe has better positioned us to penetrate the hospital-healthcare and other industries. In August 2017, our EPA label was further expanded to include efficacy against Salmonella and Norovirus. In December 2017, SteraMist™ was included in the EPA’s list K, G, L and M. Currently, we have our EPA-registered label in all 50 states.
 
SteraMist is designed to be easily incorporated into current cleaning procedures; economical, non-corrosive and easy to apply; leave no residues; and require no wiping. All our SteraMist products are fully validated to comply with good manufacturing practice standard, have received Conformité Européene (CE) marks in the European Economic Area and are approved by Underwriters Laboratory. Our solution is manufactured at an EPA-registered solution blender and our product performance is supported by good laboratory practice efficacy data for Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, mold spores, MRSA, h1n1, Geobacillus stearothermophilus and Clostridium difficile spores. As of January 27, 2017, our BIT solution and BIT technology is one of 53 of the EPA’s “Registered Antimicrobial Products Effective against Clostridium difficile Spores”, as published on the EPA’s K List.
 
In January 2018, we appointed our new Chief Operating Officer, Elissa Shane, who had previously served us in other roles for several years. In addition, in January 2018, we also announced the appointment of Dr. Lim Boh Soon to our board of directors.
 
Our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was $1,312,000 and 1,099,000, respectively, an increase of $213,000 or 19% in the current year period. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we added 13 new customers and noted an increase in repeat solution orders from our existing client base.
 
Domestically, our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was $945,000 and $848,000, respectively. The increase in the current year period was attributable to large equipment orders from new customers during the three months ended March 31, 2018, and steady repeat solution orders from our existing customer base.
 
 
21
 
 
Internationally, our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was $367,000 and $251,000, respectively. The increase in the current year period is attributable to increased orders from existing customers in Europe and Asia. While regulatory and product registrations have slowed our anticipated growth in Asia and Europe, we continue to make strides in the registration process, which we anticipate will position us to generate additional revenue in those regions. In March 2018, SteraMist BIT technology was registered with the Taiwan Environmental Protection Agency.
 
During the first quarter of 2018, we focused on expanding our internal and external sales force and in April announced the hiring of Steven Grant, a senior leader in both the bio-tech and medical markets, who will serve as our Vice President of Sales. Mr. Grant brings over 30 plus years’ of experience and will direct all sales efforts across all divisions. Among his other previous positions held, he was a Vice President in the Life Science Division/Americas Sales and Marketing for over two years at Bioquell Inc (USA) and has extensive knowledge of hydrogen peroxide products as decontamination methods in a variety of divisions and verticals.
 
During the first quarter of 2018, we began participating in a large study that compares hospital manual cleans to a SteraMist™ mechanical clean using iHP™ disinfecting technology. The study is being conducted at one of the largest hospitals west of the Mississippi River, LAC-USC Medical Center, in addition to two other Los Angeles public hospitals, UCLA Olive View Medical Center, and Harbor-UCLA Medical Center. Study details and progress will be released as obtained from the study’s lead investigators.
 
To further expand efforts in our Healthcare division, we recently brought on Bill Flecky and Jeff Hobson who will lead our national sales efforts, and our initiatives are focused on expanding use sites for current SteraMist™ hospital clients, developing new clients, and securing greater penetration in the medical transport industry. Mr. Flecky our Director of Hospital-HealthCare, has years of demonstrated success in accelerating revenue growth and sales channel development in the scientific instruments, medical devices, and healthcare information technology markets. Mr. Hobson our Vice President of Hospital-HealthCare, has over 20 years of director level sales experience and a proven track record of generating revenue and developing business leads in the healthcare market specifically. We anticipate that the addition of these seasoned professionals will improve client penetration in this division.
 
In August of 2017, we announced the hiring of a new sales director to assist in the development of our business in the life science markets and added 26 additional sales representatives to our Life Sciences division.
 
In May 2018 we entered a lease for a 9,000 square foot facility in Frederick Maryland, to accommodate our expanding operations. The new space will have additional office and warehouse space, a dedicated laboratory, larger research and development space and will feature a one-of-a-kind, state-of-the-art built-in decontamination chamber to demonstrate the ease, quickness and effectiveness of our core product “SteraMistTM” while applying it to numerous types of vehicles from neighboring communities. The facility will be located at Riverside Corporate Park in the heart of emerging bio-tech companies and research centers.
 
In May, 2018. We announced that our U.K. distributor, Westbury Decontamination completed a decontamination service job at one of the facilities of the Metropolitan Police Service. Which is the territorial police force responsible for law enforcement in Greater London, and also has significant national responsibilities, such as coordinating and leading on U.K. wide national counter-terrorism matters and protecting senior members of the British Royal Family, in addition to members of the Cabinet of the United Kingdom and other ministerial members of Her Majesty's Government of the United Kingdom.
 
During 2018, we intend to continue to build brand awareness through marketing and advertising initiatives, as well as the overall performance of our product. We also increased efforts in our research and development of various testing and studies with a concentration in the hospital-healthcare market. We currently have placed significant resources into a study that focuses on quicker hospital room terminal cleans.
 
We have recently been featured in many publications, including some that are listed below;
 
In May 2017, we were featured in an article published in the International Journal of Food Microbiology by authors from the Key Laboratory of Food Nutrition and Safety (Tianjin University of Science and Technology), the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Center for Nanotechnology and Nanotoxicology at the Harvard School of Public Health, which stated that cold plasma-activated hydrogen peroxide aerosol (SteraMist product) rendered samples of Escherichia coli 0157:H7, Salmonella Typhimurium and Listeria innocua inactive, while also maintaining the quality of the produce tested.
 
In June 2017, one of our custom built-in systems that was designed and installed into a vivarium facility at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute was featured in a publication, ALNmag (Animal Laboratory Magazine) “Applying Alternative Decontamination Methods in Vivarium Design”.
 
 
22
 
 
In December 2017, we were included in the article “Review of Necessary Practices for EPA Submission of a Hospital Disinfectant Using Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) Disinfectant Study Summaries of the SteraMist™ BIT™ Disinfection System” in Applied Biosafety: Journal of ABSA International.
 
In February 2018, we were featured in an article that discusses how a hospital in Delaware is managing to control the spread of the flu virus. Delaware Online, part of the USA Today Network, shared news of record high flu cases in the state and the way in which St. Francis Healthcare, located in Wilmington, Delaware, is managing to address the need to control this highly infectious and aggressive flu strain through the use of our SteraMist BIT technology.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our condensed 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 condensed 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
 
We recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, “Revenue Recognition,” when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, title and risk of loss have passed, delivery has occurred, or the services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured.  Title and risk of loss generally pass to our customers upon shipment.
 
Disaggregation of Revenue
 
Product revenue includes sales from our standard and customized equipment, solution and accessories sold with our equipment. Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products or services.
 
               Service and training revenue includes sales from our high-level decontamination and service engagements, validation of our equipment and technology and customer training. Service revenue is recognized as the agreed upon services are rendered to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those services.
 
Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer
 
We apply a practical expedient to expense costs as incurred for costs to obtain a contract with a customer when the amortization period would have been one year or less. We generally expense sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are recorded within sales and marketing expenses. These costs include our internal sales force compensation program and certain partner sales incentive programs as we have determined annual compensation is commensurate with annual sales activities.
 
Contract Balances
 
As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 we did not did not have any unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.
 
Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations
 
Our contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. We enter into contracts that can include various combinations of products and services, which are primarily distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations.
 
 
23
 
 
Significant Judgments
 
Our contracts with customers for products and services often dictate the terms and conditions of when he control of the promised products or services is transferred to the customer and the amount of consideration to be received in exchange for the products and services.
 
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.
 
 Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and convertible debt. 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. The recorded value of convertible debt approximates its fair value as the terms and rates approximate market rates.
 
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. At times, these deposits may be in excess of insured limits.
 
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 method. Inventories consist primarily of finished goods. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we did not have a reserve for slow-moving or obsolete inventory.
 
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.
 
 
24
 
 
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 from date of sales, 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 our net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period presented. Diluted loss per share is based on the treasury stock method and includes the effect from potential issuance of shares of common stock, such as shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of options and warrants and conversions of preferred stock or debentures.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
We account 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.
 
On July 7, 2017, our shareholders approved the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”). 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 us. 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 year ended December 31, 2017, the Company issued 200,000 shares of common stock out of the 2016 Plan. In addition, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, we issued 300,000 shares of common stock out of the 2016 Plan.
 
Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. We maintain cash balances at financial institutions which exceed the current Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit of $250,000 at times during the year.
 
Long-Lived Assets Including Acquired Intangible Assets
 
We assess 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, we measure recoverability of these assets by comparing the carrying amounts to the future undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If our 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. We base the calculations of the estimated fair value of our long-lived assets on the income approach. For the income approach, we use an internally developed discounted cash flow model that includes, 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 had no long-lived asset impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to replace the existing revenue recognition criteria for contracts with customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Deferral of the Effective Date, to defer the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 to interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We adopted ASU Nos. 2014-09 and 2015-14 on January 1, 2018 on a modified retrospective basis, which did not impact our beginning accumulated deficit and additional paid-in capital.
 
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, which requires lessees to recognize all leases, with certain exceptions, on the balance sheet, while recognition on the statement of operations will remain similar to current lease accounting. ASU 2016-02 also eliminates real estate-specific provisions and modifies certain aspects of lessor accounting. ASU 2016-02 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We currently expect to adopt ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019. We will be required to recognize and measure leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented using a modified retrospective approach, with certain practical expedients available. We intend to elect the available practical expedients upon adoption. Upon adoption, we expect the consolidated balance sheet to include a right of use asset and liability related to substantially all of our lease arrangements. We are continuing to assess the impact of adopting ASU 2016-02 on our financial position, results of operations and related disclosures and have not yet concluded whether the effect on our consolidated financial statements will be material.
 
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, to simplify the accounting for the income tax effects from share-based compensation, the accounting for forfeitures and the accounting for statutory income tax withholding, among others. In particular, ASU No. 2016-09 requires all income tax effects from share-based compensation to be recognized in the consolidated statement of operations when the awards vest or are settled, ASU No. 2016-09 permits accounting for forfeitures as they occur, and ASU No. 2016-09 permits a higher level of statutory income tax withholding without triggering liability accounting. Adoption of ASU No. 2016-09 is modified retrospective, retrospective and prospective, depending on the specific provision being adopted. We adopted ASU No. 2016-09 on January 1, 2017, which did not impact our beginning accumulated deficit and additional paid-in capital.
 
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, to simplify the test for goodwill impairment by removing Step 2. An entity will, therefore, perform the goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, recognizing an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. An entity still has the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. ASU No. 2017-04 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. Adoption of ASU No. 2017-04 is prospective. We have not yet selected an adoption date, and ASU No. 2017-04 will have a currently undetermined impact on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Scope of Modification Accounting, to provide guidance on which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. ASU No. 2017-09 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. Adoption of ASU No. 2017-09 is prospective. We adopted ASU No. 2017-09 on January 1, 2018, which did not impact our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Cost of Sales
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, our cost of sales was approximately $492,000 and $416,000, respectively, representing an increase of $76,000 or 18%. The primary reason for the increase in cost of sales is attributable to the increase in sales during the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the prior year period. Our gross profit margin as a percentage of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was consistent with the same period in 2017.
 
 
27
 
 
Professional Fees
 
Professional fees for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were approximately $106,000, as compared to $272,000 during the prior year period, representing a decrease of approximately $166,000 or 61%. The decrease is attributable to professional fees incurred in the prior year period in connection with our increased efforts to protect and strengthen our intellectual property and our lawsuit with Astro Pak Corporation, which we settled in July 2017. Professional fees are comprised mainly of legal, accounting and financial consulting fees.
 
Depreciation and Amortization
 
Depreciation and amortization was approximately $163,000 and $159,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, representing an increase of $4,000 or 3% in the current year period.
 
Selling Expenses
 
Selling expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were approximately $204,000, as compared to $179,000 in the same period in 2017, representing an increase of $25,000 or 14%. The increase in selling expenses is attributable to higher marketing and advertising costs incurred in 2018 compared to the prior year period. Selling expenses represent selling salaries and wages, trade show fees, commissions, advertising and marketing expenses.
 
Research and Development
 
Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were approximately $132,000, as compared to $31,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, representing an increase of $102,000 or 332%. The primary reason for the increase is attributable to current and ongoing studies and testing in connection with our product related to a more effective and quicker hospital terminal cleans. Research and development expenses mainly include costs incurred in generating and supporting research on improving, extending and applying our patents in the field of mechanical cleaning and decontamination.
 
Equity Compensation Expense
 
Equity compensation expense, which are non-cash charges, for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was approximately $13,000, as compared to $12,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2017, representing an increase of $1,000 or 8%.
 
Consulting Fees
 
Consulting fees for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were approximately $35,000, as compared to $31,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2017, representing an increase of approximately $4,000 or 13%.
 
General and Administrative Expense
 
General and administrative expense includes salaries and payroll taxes, rent, insurance expense, utilities, office expense and product registration costs. General and administrative expense was approximately $664,000 and $610,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, representing an increase of $54,000 or 9%. The primary reason for the increase is attributable to higher salaries and wages due to an increase in the number of our employees in the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the same period in 2017.
 
Other Income and Expense
 
Amortization of debt discount was approximately $8,000 and $100 during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Amortization of debt discount in the three months ended March 31, 2018 consisted of the amortization of debt discount on the $6,000,000 principal amount of unregistered senior callable convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) issued in March and May 2017. The debt discount was amortized over the life of the Notes utilizing the effective interest method.
 
Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was approximately $1,200 and $0, respectively.
 
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was approximately $60,000 and $14,000, respectively. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 consisted of the interest incurred on the $6,000,000 principal amount of Notes issued in March and May 2017.
 
 
28
 
Net Loss
 
Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was approximately $563,000 and $626,000, respectively, representing a decrease of $63,000 or 10%. The primary reasons for the decrease in the net loss are attributable to:
 
Higher revenue and gross profit of approximately $213,000 and $138,000, respectively, offset by;
Increased operating expenses of approximately $23,000, and;
Increased Interest expense of approximately $46,000.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of March 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $3,867,000 and working capital of $8,724,000. 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 September 2016, our common stock was uplisted to the OTCQX Best Market. We intend to apply to further uplist our common stock to a national securities exchange in the future. Due to the applicable qualitative and quantitative standards required to successfully list on a national securities exchange, we may need to raise additional capital in order to meet such benchmarks. If we fail to satisfy the applicable listing standards of a national securities exchange, we may be unable to successfully list our common stock on such an exchange.
 
In March and May 2017, we raised gross proceeds of $6,000,000 through a private placement of the Notes. We issued the Notes in tranches of $5,300,000 and $700,000, respectively, which originally were scheduled to mature on August 31, 2018 and November 8, 2018, respectively, unless earlier redeemed, repurchased or converted. The Notes are convertible at any time by the holder into common stock at a conversion price of $0.54 per share. We may redeem the Notes at any time prior to maturity at a price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest as of the redemption date. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in cash on February 28 and August 31 of each year at a rate of 4 percent per annum. In addition, we issued three-year warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 999,998 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.69 per share. Currently, we are using the proceeds from the private placement for research and development, international product registration, expansion of our internal sales force, marketing, public relations, expansions of our EPA label and for working capital and general corporate purposes. In February and March 2018, we and the holders of the Notes extended the maturity date of the $5,300,000 principal amount of Notes to April 1, 2019 and the $700,000 principal amount of Notes to June 8, 2019.
 
In May 2018, one of the noteholders with a principal balance of $700,000 agreed to convert its Note into shares of common stock at a reduced conversion price of $0.46 per share.
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, we incurred losses from operations of approximately $496,000 and $612,000, respectively.  The cash used in operations was approximately $683,000 and $248,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. 
 
Our revenues can fluctuate due to the following factors, among others:
 
Ramp up and expansion of our internal sales force and manufacturers’ representatives;
Length of our sales cycle;
Expansion into new territories and markets; and
Timing of orders from distributors.
 
We could incur additional operating losses and an increase of costs related to the continuation of product and technology development and administrative activities.
 
Management has taken and will endeavor to continue to take a number of actions in order to improve our results of operations and the related cash flows generated from operations in order to strengthen our financial position, including the following items:
 
Expanding our label with the EPA to further our product registration internationally;
Continued expansion of our internal sales force and manufacturer representatives in an effort to drive domestic revenue in all hospital-healthcare verticals;
Continued expansion of our internal sales force and manufacturer representatives in an effort to drive global revenue in the life science verticals;
 
 
29
 
 
Expansion of international distributors; and
Continued growth of TSN and new growth in the food safety market including pre- and post-harvest.
 
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 will be successfully implemented, and our cash flows may be adversely affected.  While we have reduced the length of our sales cycle, it may still exceed 4–6 months and it is 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 planned products. 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 us.
 
Operating Activities
 
Cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was approximately $683,000 and $248,000, respectively. Cash used in operating activities increased in 2018 approximately $435,000 as compared to the prior year period primarily due to an increase in our accounts receivable, a decrease in our accounts payable, offset by a decrease in our inventory.
 
Investing Activities
 
Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was approximately $0 and $4,800, respectively.
 
Financing Activities
 
Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $0.
 
Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 consisted of the $5,300,000 in aggregate gross proceeds received from the issuance of the Notes.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
 
The Company is a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and is not required to disclose the information required by this Item 3 pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K.
 
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that as of March 31, 2018, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
 
30
 
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) under the Exchange Act during the period covered by this Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
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.
