NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND LIQUIDITY

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017, which has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements, and the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2018 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted herein. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the SEC on March 27, 2018. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein reflect all normal adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The Company is responsible for the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report. The results of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

 

Nature of Operations

 

MYOS RENS Technology Inc. is a bionutrition company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of products that improve muscle health and performance. The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on April 11, 2007. On March 17, 2016, the Company merged with its wholly-owned subsidiary and changed its name from MYOS Corporation to MYOS RENS Technology Inc. As used in these financial statements, the terms “the Company”, “MYOS”, “our”, or “we”, refers to MYOS RENS Technology Inc. and its subsidiary, unless the context indicates otherwise.

 

We continue to pursue additional distribution and branded sales opportunities. We expect to continue developing our own core branded products in markets such as functional foods, sports and fitness nutrition and rehabilitation and restorative health and to pursue international sales opportunities. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure distribution arrangements on terms acceptable to the Company, or that we will be able to generate significant sales of our current and future branded products.

 

Strategic Investment Transaction

 

On December 17, 2015, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with RENS Technology Inc. (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which the Purchaser agreed to invest $20.25 million in the Company in three tranches (the “Financing”) in exchange for an aggregate of 3,537,037 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”).

 

In the first tranche, which closed on March 3, 2016, the Purchaser acquired 1,500,000 Shares and a warrant to purchase 375,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Initial Warrant”) for $5.25 million. On August 19, 2016, the Purchaser notified the Company that it did not intend to fulfill its obligation to fund the second tranche of the Financing.

 

On January 6, 2017, the Company commenced an action in the Supreme Court of New York, County of New York (the “Court”), against RENS Agriculture, the parent company of the Purchaser, and Ren Ren, a principal in both entities and one of our directors, arising from the Purchaser’s breach of the Purchase Agreement. See NOTE 13-LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

Going Concern and Liquidity

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which contemplates the continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and incurred a net loss of approximately $2,247 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and $4,058 for the year ended December 31, 2017.

 

As of June 30, 2018 the Company had cash of $508 and working capital of $1,972 (current assets of $2,389 less current liabilities of $417). For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, our net loss was $2,247 and $2,223, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, net cash used in operating activities was $1,770 and $2,523 respectively.

 

As of the filing date of this Form 10-Q, management believes that there may not be sufficient capital resources from operations and existing financing arrangements in order to meet operating expenses and working capital requirements for the next twelve months (primarily due to the failure of RENS Technology Inc. to fund the required amounts. (See Note 13 – Legal Proceedings)). These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Accordingly, the Company is evaluating various alternatives, including reducing operating expenses, securing additional financing through debt or equity securities to fund future business activities and other strategic alternatives. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to generate the level of operating revenues in its business plan, or if additional sources of financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If no additional sources of financing are available, our future operating prospects may be adversely affected. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

 

At-the-Market Offering

 

On February 21, 2017, the Company entered into a sales agreement with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“H.C. Wainwright”) which established an at-the-market equity program pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell up to $6.0 million of its shares of common stock from time to time through H.C. Wainwright. The Company incurred $125 of deferred offering costs in connection with this program which were originally recorded as a long term other asset on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Since this sales agreement expired during the three months ended June 30, 2018 the remaining deferred offering costs of $96 were recognized as legal expenses recorded within the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations as general and administrative expenses.

 

On January 19, 2018, the Company sold 140,295 shares of common stock for $2.111 per share for gross proceeds of $296 in an at-the-market offering. On various dates in April 2018, the Company sold an aggregate of 131,225 shares of common stock at various prices for aggregate gross proceeds of $176 under the Company’s existing at-the-market program. As of the filing date of this Form 10-Q, a total of 771,520 shares were sold under this program for aggregate gross proceeds of $1,544.

 

On July 24, 2018, the Company entered into a new sales agreement with H.C. Wainwright which established a new at-the-market equity program pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell shares of common stock from time to time through H.C. Wainwright. The Company incurred $94 of deferred offering costs in connection with this program as of June 30, 2018 which was recorded as a long term other asset on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The deferred offering costs will be reflected as a reduction in equity as the Company incurs sales of its stock pursuant to this program. Management continues to evaluate the ongoing progress of this program and its related outstanding deferred offering costs.

 

Private Placement

 

On April 25, 2018, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with private investors providing for the issuance and sale by the Company of 806,452 shares of common stock, in a private placement offering at a purchase price of $1.24 per share, for gross proceeds of $1,000 and net proceeds of $978.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MYOS RENS Technology Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Atlas Acquisition Corp. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Reclassification of Prior Period Presentation

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications did not have a material impact on the reported results of operations.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, equity and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future non-conforming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates include but are not limited to the valuation of stock-based awards, measurement of allowances for doubtful accounts and inventory reserves, the amount of deferred offering costs recognized, the selection of asset useful lives, fair value estimations used to test long-lived assets, including intangibles, impairments and provisions necessary for assets and liabilities. 

 

The Company has historically recorded minimal sales during the past sixteen consecutive quarters. In June 2018, the Company launched a Fortetropin® based pet product called Myos Canine Muscle Formula. In April 2018, the Company launched YolkedTM , a new sports nutrition product line. In March 2017, the Company launched Qurr, a Fortetropin® powered product line to support the vital role of muscle in overall well-being.

 

Management’s estimates, including evaluation of impairment of long-lived assets and inventory reserves are based in part on forecasted future results. A variety of factors could cause actual results to differ from forecasted results and these differences could have a significant effect on asset carrying amounts.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 the Company had no cash equivalents. As part of our ongoing liquidity assessments, management evaluates our cash and cash equivalents. The Company maintains its bank accounts with high credit quality financial institutions and has never experienced any losses related to these bank accounts. The Company minimizes its credit risk associated with cash by periodically evaluating the credit quality of its financial institutions. The amount of funds held in these accounts can fluctuate due to the timing of receipts and payments in the ordinary course of business and due to other reasons, such as business-development activities so the Company may at times have exposure to cash in excess of FDIC insured limits.

Inventories, net

 

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined on a first in, first-out basis. Each quarter the Company evaluates the need for a change in the inventory reserve based on projected future sales and expiration dates of products.

 

Deferred Offering Costs

 

The Company defers as other assets the direct incremental costs of raising capital until such time as the offering is completed. At the time of the completion of the offering, the costs are charged against the capital raised. Should the offering not be completed, deferred offering costs are charged to operations during the period in accordance with SEC guidance. Since the February 21, 2017 sales agreement expired during the three months ended June 30, 2018 the remaining deferred offering costs of $96 on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets were recognized and recorded within the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations as general and administrative expenses.

 

On July 24, 2018, the Company entered into a new sales agreement, incurring $94 of deferred offering costs as of June 30, 2018 which was recorded as a long term other asset on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. 

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

We perform impairment testing of fixed assets and intangible assets subject to amortization by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to the forecasted undiscounted future cash flows whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. In the event the carrying value of the asset exceeds the undiscounted future cash flows, the carrying value is considered not recoverable and an impairment exists. An impairment loss is measured as the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its fair value, calculated using a discounted future cash flow method. The computed impairment loss is recognized in the period that the impairment occurs. Assets which are not impaired may require an adjustment to the remaining useful lives for which to amortize the asset. Impairment testing requires the development of significant estimates and assumptions involving the determination of estimated net cash flows, selection of the appropriate discount rate to measure the risk inherent in future cash flow streams, assessment of an asset’s life cycle, competitive trends impacting the asset as well as other factors. Changes in these underlying assumptions could significantly impact the asset’s estimated fair value. No impairment charges were recorded during the six month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

 

Fixed Assets

 

Fixed assets are stated at cost and depreciated to their estimated residual value over their estimated useful lives of 3 to 7 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the asset’s useful life or the contractual remaining lease term including expected renewals. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the assets and related accumulated depreciation are reversed from the accounts and the resulting gains or losses are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method for all fixed assets. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

Intangible Assets

 

The Company’s intangible assets consist primarily of intellectual property pertaining to Fortetropin®, including its formula, trademarks, trade secrets, patent application and domain names. Based on expansion into new markets and introduction of new formulas, management determined that the intellectual property had a finite useful life of ten (10) years and began amortizing the asset over its estimated useful life beginning April 2014.

 

In July 2014, the Company acquired the United States patent application for the manufacturing of Fortetropin® from Deutsches Institut fur Lebensmitteltechnik e.V. - the German Institute for Food Technologies (“DIL”). The cost of the patent application, which was capitalized as an intangible asset, was determined to be $101, based on the present value of the minimum guaranteed royalty payable to DIL using a discount rate of 10%. The intangible asset is being amortized over an estimated useful life of ten (10) years. The remaining contingent royalty payments will be recorded as the contingency is resolved and the royalty becomes payable under the arrangement. For additional information on the amended supply agreement with DIL refer to “NOTE 11 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES - Supply Agreement.”

 

Intangible assets also includes patent costs associated with applying for a patent and being issued a patent. Costs to defend a patent and costs to invalidate a competitor’s patent or patent application are expensed as incurred. Upon issuance of the patent, capitalized patent costs are reclassified from intangibles with indefinite lives to intangibles with finite lives and amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the estimated economic life or the initial term of the patent, generally 20 years.

 

There were no impairment charges for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017.

 

Intangible assets at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 consisted of the following:

 

   June 30,   December 31, 
   2018   2017 
Intangibles with finite lives:

Total intangible assets, net  $1,496   $1,640 

 

Assuming no additions, disposals or adjustments are made to the carrying values and/or useful lives of the intangible assets, amortization expense for intangible assets is estimated to be as follows:

Revenue

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09 (“ASU 2014-09”), as amended, using the modified retrospective method. ASU 2014-09, which is codified in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, supersedes nearly all previous revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP and requires revenue to be recognized when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. Additionally, qualitative and quantitative disclosures are required about customer contracts, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract.

 

The adoption of ASU 2014-09 did not impact the Company’s timing or amounts of revenue recognition. As such, the Company recorded no transition adjustment as of January 1, 2018. However, the additional required qualitative and quantitative disclosures to Topic 606 are provided below.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Net revenues include products and shipping and handling charges, net of estimates for incentives and other sales allowances or discounts. Our product sales generally do not provide for rights of return. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring products. All revenue is recognized when we satisfy our performance obligations under the contract. We recognize revenue by transferring the promised products to the customer, with revenue recognized at the point in time the customer obtains control of the products. We consider charges associated with shipping and handling activities as costs to fulfill our performance obligations. Using probability assessments, we estimate sales incentives expected to be paid over the term of the contract. The majority of our contracts have a single performance obligation and are short term in nature. Sales taxes that are collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from net sales.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Credit is extended based upon an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition. Accounts receivable are stated at their estimated net realizable value. Any allowance for doubtful accounts is based on an analysis of customer accounts and historical experience.

 

Contract Liabilities

Advertising

 

The Company charges advertising expenses to selling, marketing and research as incurred. Advertising expenses were $92 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, and $259 and $320 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits, and other related costs, including stock-based compensation, for personnel serving in our research and development functions, and other internal operating expenses, the cost of manufacturing our product for clinical study, the cost of conducting clinical studies and the cost of conducting preclinical and research activities. Nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities are initially capitalized and are then recognized as an expense as the related goods are consumed or the services are performed.

 

Research and development expenses were $103 and $37 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $291 and $41 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Shipping and Handling

 

The Company records expenses for shipping and handling of products to our customers as cost of sales. These expenses were $13 and $11 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $24 and $19 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

Stock-based payments are measured at their estimated fair value on the date of grant. Stock-based compensation expense recognized during a period is based on the estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest. For stock options and restricted stock that do not vest immediately but which contain only a service vesting feature, we recognize compensation cost on the unvested shares and options on a straight-line basis over the remaining vesting period. These expenses are included as personnel and benefits within the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Stock-based compensation expenses were $79 and $40 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $165 and $82 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

 

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of options and the market price of our common stock on the date of grant for the fair value of restricted stock issued. Our determination of the fair value of stock-based awards is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, our expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and certain other market variables such as the risk-free interest rate.

  

Segment Information

 

ASC 280, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments and requires selected information for those segments to be presented in the financial statements. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services and geographic areas. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in making decisions how to allocate resources and assess performance. Management has determined that the Company operates in one segment.

 

Fair Value Measurement

 

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby observable and unobservable inputs, used in valuation techniques, are assigned a hierarchical level.

 

The following are the hierarchy levels of inputs to measure fair value:

 

  Level 1: Inputs that utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
  Level 2: Inputs that utilize observable quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and observable quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not very active.
  Level 3: Inputs that utilize unobservable inputs and include valuations of assets or liabilities for which there is little, if any, market activity.

 

A financial asset or liability’s classification within the above hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 the Company’s financial instruments consisted primarily of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses. Due to their short-term nature, the carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments approximated their fair values.

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share   

 

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if potential dilutive securities outstanding had been issued. The Company uses the “treasury stock” method to determine the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents such as options, warrants and restricted stock. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company incurred a net loss. Accordingly, the potential dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share of common stock because their inclusion would have been antidilutive. As a result, diluted loss per common share is the same as basic loss per common share for all periods presented.

 

The aggregate number of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding at June 30, 2018 excluded from the diluted net loss per share computation because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive were 1,439,942, which includes warrants to purchase an aggregate of 821,202 shares of common stock and options to purchase an aggregate of 608,740 shares of common stock. 

 

The aggregate number of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding at June 30, 2017 excluded from the diluted net loss per share computation because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive were 1,142,682, which includes warrants to purchase an aggregate of 821,202 shares of common stock, options to purchase an aggregate of 300,340 shares of common stock, and unvested restricted stock awards of 21,140 shares of common stock. 

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases as well as operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods 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. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent that the recoverability of the asset is unlikely to be recognized. The Company follows ASC 740 rules governing uncertain tax positions, which provides guidance for recognition and measurement. This prescribes a threshold condition that a tax position must meet for any of the benefits of the uncertain tax position to be recognized in the financial statements. It also provides accounting guidance on recognition, classification and disclosure of these uncertain tax positions. The Company has no uncertain income tax positions.

 

The Tax Cut and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was enacted on December 22, 2017. The Tax Act contains several key provisions including, among other things, reducing the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from thirty-five percent to twenty-one percent. Since the Company has a net deferred tax asset which has been fully reserved with a valuation allowance, the change in the enacted rate did not have an impact on the Company’s net deferred tax assets. Changes in tax law are accounted for in the period of enactment. In addition, Federal net operating losses (“NOL”) generated during future periods will be carried forward indefinitely, but will be subject to an eighty percent utilization against taxable income. The carryback provision has been revoked for NOL incurred after January 1, 2018. 

 

Interest costs and penalties related to income taxes are classified as interest expense and operating expenses, respectively, in the Company’s financial statements. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company did not recognize any interest or penalty expense related to income taxes. The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and states in which it does business.

NOTE 3 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The new guidance expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payments granted to nonemployees in exchange for goods or services used or consumed in an entity’s own operations, and supersedes the guidance in ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. The most significant change resulting from this update is that stock-based awards granted to non-employees will no longer need to be re-measured at fair value at each financial reporting date until performance is complete, as these awards will be measured at fair value at the grant date. The guidance is effective January 1, 2019 with early adoption permitted, including in an interim period for which financial statements have not been issued. The Company has evaluated the impact of early adoption of this ASU and determined that it will have no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In March 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-5 – Income Taxes (Topic 740):  Amendments to SEC Paragraphs pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118.  This ASU provided guidance related to Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”), which addresses the accounting implications of the Tax Act. SAB 118 allows a company to record provisional amounts during a measurement period not to extend beyond one year of the enactment date and was effective upon issuance. We have analyzed the Tax Act, and in certain areas, have made reasonable estimates of the effects on our condensed consolidated financial statements and tax disclosures.

 

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. The amendments in this update provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. This update is effective for all entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, for (1) public business entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued and (2) all other entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been made available for issuance. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. The adoption of ASU 2017-09, effective January 1, 2018, did not have a significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. 

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), which requires lessees to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will continue to primarily depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. However, unlike current U.S. GAAP, which requires only capital leases to be recognized on the balance sheet, ASU 2016-02 will require both types of leases to be recognized on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-02 also requires disclosures about the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements, providing additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. ASU 2016-02 is effective beginning January 1, 2019, with early application permitted. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, which provides targeted improvements to the new lease standard, including an option to apply the transition provisions at its adoption date instead of at the earliest comparative period presented in its financial statements. We have evaluated the adoption of ASU 2016-02 and determined that the standard will not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Preferred Stock Purchase Rights

 

Effective February 14, 2017, the Board of Directors declared a dividend of one right (“Right”) for each of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The Rights were granted to the stockholders of record at the close of business on February 24, 2017. Each Right entitles the registered holder, upon the occurrence of certain events specified in the Rights Agreement, to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock at a price of $7.00, subject to certain adjustments.

 

The Rights are not exercisable until the occurrence of certain events, including a person acquiring or obtaining the right to acquire beneficial ownership of 10% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The Rights are evidenced by certificates for the common stock and automatically transfer with the common stock unless they become exercisable. If the Rights become exercisable, separate certificates evidencing the Rights will be distributed to each holder of common stock. Holders of the preferred stock will be entitled to certain dividend, liquidation and voting rights. The rights are redeemable by us at a fixed price as determined by the Board, after certain defined events.

 

As of June 30, 2018 the Rights have no dilutive effect on the earnings per common share calculation and no shares of preferred stock have been issued. The Company has determined that these Rights have a de minimis fair value. The description and terms of the Rights are set forth in the Rights Agreement dated as of February 14, 2017 between the Company and Island Stock Transfer, as Rights Agent.

NOTE 10 – STOCK COMPENSATION

 

Equity Incentive Plan

 

In November 2016, the Company increased the number of shares available for issuance under its 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended, the “Plan”) from 550,000 to 850,000, which was approved by the Company’s shareholders in December 2016. The Plan provides for grants of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, other stock-based awards and other cash-based awards. As of June 30, 2018, the remaining shares of common stock available for future issuances of awards was 231,260. The Company granted an aggregate of 30,000 options to purchase restricted common stock to certain directors prior to the adoption of the Plan. Stock options generally vest and become exercisable with respect to 100% of the common stock subject to such stock option on the third (3rd) anniversary of the date of grant. Any unvested portion of a stock option shall expire upon termination of employment or service of the participant granted the stock option, and the vested portion shall remain exercisable in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.

  

Stock Options

 

The following table summarizes stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2018: 

 

           Weighted 
       Weighted   Average 
   Shares   Average   Remaining 
   Under   Exercise   Contractual 
   Options   Price   Term (Years) 
Balance at December 31, 2017   561,740   $7.32    5.61 
Options granted   57,000    4.00    9.50 
Options canceled   (10,000)   4.00    - 
Balance at June 30, 2018   608,740   $6.76    5.65 

 

At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the exercisable options had no intrinsic value.

  

As of June 30, 2018, 253,310 options have vested and 355,430 options remain unvested. The vesting terms range from zero to 9.50 years and the vested options have a weighted average remaining term of 5.65 years and a weighted average exercise price of $6.76 per share.

 

The weighted average grant date fair value of the 57,000 stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $0.32. The following table summarizes the assumptions used to value stock using a Black-Scholes model:

 

Expected annualized volatility:   50.00%
Annual risk-free interest rate:   2.38%
Expected time to maturity:   7 years 
Exercise Price  $4.00 

 

The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury rate for a note with a similar term in effect at the time of the grant. The expected annualized volatility is based on the volatility of the Company’s historical stock prices.

Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies   

 

Supply Agreement

 

On November 18, 2016, the Company entered into an Amended Supply Agreement with DIL Technologie GmbH (“DIL”). Pursuant to the agreement (and so long as the agreement is effective), DIL will manufacture and supply the Company with Fortetropin®, the active ingredient for its products, and the Company will purchase quantities of Fortetropin® from DIL in its discretion. DIL will manufacture the formula exclusively for the Company in perpetuity, and may not manufacture the formula for other entities (but may manufacture it for its own non-commercial research). The Company agreed, commencing January 2017, to pay DIL €10 (approximately $12) per month for collaborative research. The monthly payments terminate upon the earlier of: (a) the date that the Company orders additional product in accordance with the terms of the agreement and (b) December 31, 2018, and the Company has no further financial obligations to DIL thereafter. The agreement expires on December 31, 2018, and the Company has the unilateral right to renew the agreement for subsequent one-year terms. At June 30, 2018, the future minimum payments under the supply agreement was €60 (approximately $72).

Note 13 – legal PROCEEDINGS

 

On October 27, 2016, Cutler Holdings, L.L.C. (“Cutler”) filed a complaint in the Superior Court of New Jersey alleging that the Company failed to make certain rental payments. On March 30, 2017, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with Cutler, pursuant to which Cutler released the Company from any liability for the claims asserted in the complaint.

 

On January 6, 2017, in connection with the financing contemplated by a securities purchase agreement with RENS Technology Inc. (the “Purchaser”), we commenced an action in the Supreme Court of New York, County of New York (the “Court”), against the Purchaser, RENS Agriculture, the parent company of the Purchaser, and Ren Ren, a principal in both entities and one of our directors, arising from the Purchaser’s breach of the agreement under which the Purchaser agreed to invest an aggregate of $20.25 million in our company in exchange for an aggregate of 3,537,037 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 884,259 shares of common stock.

 

On April 11, 2017, the Court noted that we had demonstrated a likelihood of success on the merits of the breach of contract claim. Thereafter, a hearing was scheduled on the application by the Purchaser to dismiss the complaint and various pre-trial discovery applications by both parties.

 

In August 2017, before the hearing occurred, the Company amended its complaint repeating most of the initial claims but adding several additional claims against RENS Agriculture, Mr. Ren and two additional Chinese defendants, including a claim against RENS Agriculture for breaching the exclusive distribution agreement, as well as claims against all defendants for theft and misappropriation of our confidential proprietary information and trade secrets, breach of fiduciary duty and duty of loyalty, misappropriation of corporate opportunity, unfair competition and a number of other torts. We are seeking damages and injunctive relief. The Purchaser has filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint, which is still pending and scheduled for oral argument in August 2018.

 

On August 16, 2017, the Purchaser commenced an action in the District Court of Clark County in the State of Nevada against us and Joseph Mannello, our then interim Chief Executive Officer, alleging that Mr. Mannello had breached his fiduciary duties and was grossly negligent in managing our company. The action seeks monetary damages and injunctive relief from Mr. Mannello as well as the appointment of a receiver over us. Subsequently, the Purchaser submitted a petition to appoint a receiver and we and Mr. Mannello submitted a motion to dismiss the action, both of which are currently pending as of the date of this report. An application on consent to adjourn the hearing date on the receiver application and motion to dismiss is pending.

 

The parties are currently in settlement discussions regarding the foregoing matters.

 

The outcome of the aforementioned matters cannot be determined as of the date of these financial statements.

 

Note 14 – Subsequent Event

 

As referenced in Note 1, on July 24, 2018, the Company entered into a new sales agreement with H.C. Wainwright which established an at-the-market equity program pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell shares of common stock from time to time through H.C. Wainwright.

Overview

 

We are a bionutrition company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of products that improve muscle health and performance. As used in this report, the “Company”, “MYOS”, “our”, or “we” refers to MYOS RENS Technology Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, unless the context indicates otherwise.

 

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on April 11, 2007. On March 17, 2016, we merged with our wholly-owned subsidiary and changed our name from MYOS Corporation to MYOS RENS Technology Inc. Prior to February 2011, we did not have any operations and did not generate revenues. In February 2011, we entered into an intellectual property purchase agreement pursuant to which our subsidiary purchased from Peak Wellness, Inc., or Peak, the intellectual property pertaining to Fortetropin®, a dietary supplement that has been shown in clinical studies to temporarily decrease the levels of serum myostatin, MYO-T12, a proprietary formulation containing Fortetropin®, certain trademarks, trade secrets, patent applications and certain domain names.

 

Since February 2011, our principal business activities have been to: (i) deepen our scientific understanding of the activity of Fortetropin®, which refers to a proprietary proteo-lipid composition derived from fertilized eggs of specific chicken species processed using a patented methodology which preserves the bioactivity of the constituent proteins and lipids, specifically as a natural, reversible, temporary reducing agent of myostatin, and to leverage this knowledge to strengthen and build our intellectual property; (ii) conduct research and development activities to evaluate myostatin modulation in a range of both wellness and disease states; (iii) identify other products and technologies which may broaden our portfolio and define a business development strategy to protect, enhance and accelerate the growth of our products; (iv) reduce the cost of manufacturing through process improvement; (v) identify contract manufacturing organizations that can fully meet our future growth requirements; (vi) develop a differentiated and advantaged consumer positioning, brand name and iconography; and, (vii) create sales and marketing capabilities to maximize near-term and future revenues.

 

 21 

 

 

 We believe that existing wellness and therapeutic targets, such as myostatin, represent a rational entry point for additional drug discovery efforts and are evaluating a separate, concurrent objective in this area. We continue to pursue additional distribution and branded sales opportunities. We expect to continue developing our own core branded products in markets such as functional foods, sports and fitness nutrition and rehabilitation and restorative health and to pursue international sales opportunities. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure distribution arrangements on terms acceptable to us, or that we will be able to generate significant sales of our current and future branded products.

 

Our executive offices are currently located at 45 Horsehill Road, Suite 106, Cedar Knolls, New Jersey 07927 and our telephone number is (973) 509-0444. Our corporate website address is http://www.myosrens.com and our new muscle health education and product website is http://www.qurr.com. Neither the information on our current or future website is, nor shall such information be deemed to be, a part of this Report or incorporated in filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Strategy 

 

Our strategy is to understand the complex genetic and molecular pathways regulating muscle mass and function as well as other disease mechanisms. Understanding the impact of complex regulatory pathways which act to build and maintain healthy lean muscle is central to our biotherapeutic research. We are developing nutritional products that target specific mechanisms to promote muscle health in ways that cannot be met by other diets or lifestyle changes.

 

We will seek to gain market share for our core branded products in functional foods, sports and fitness nutrition and rehabilitation and restorative health verticals by (i) formulating and developing new and complementary product lines, (ii) expanding U.S. distribution by increasing the channels of sale, (iii) expanding distribution geography beyond the U.S. and (iv) seeking strategic relationships with other distributors. Our strategy is to utilize the revenue and awareness generated by the sales and marketing of Fortetropin® to further advance our research and development of therapeutic treatments for muscular disorders, including sarcopenia.

 

Marketing, Sales and Distribution

 

Our commercial focus is to leverage our clinical data to develop multiple products to target the large, but currently underserved markets focused on muscle health. The sales channels through which we sell our products are evolving. The first product we introduced was MYO-T12, a proprietary formula containing Fortetropin® and other ingredients. The formula was sold under the brand name MYO-T12 and later as MYO-X through an exclusive distribution agreement that terminated in March 2015 and the product line was discontinued.

 

In 2014, we expanded our commercial operations through a distribution agreement with Cenegenics Product and Lab Services, LLC (“Cenegenics”), under which Cenegenics distributed and promoted a proprietary formulation containing Fortetropin® through its age management centers and its community of physicians focused on treating a growing population of patients focused on proactively addressing age-related health and wellness concerns. In May 2017, we received a sales order from Cenegenics and recorded $200 of net revenues for 2017. As of the filing date of this report we have not received any new sales orders from Cenegenics for 2018.

 

In 2015 we launched Rē Muscle HealthTM, our own direct-to-consumer brand with a portfolio of muscle health bars, meal replacement shakes and daily supplement powders each powered by a full 6.6 gram single serving dose of Fortetropin®. Our Rē Muscle Health products were sold through our e-commerce website, remusclehealth.com, and amazon.com until March 2017 when we introduced our new Qurr line of products.

 

In 2016, we launched Physician Muscle Health Formula, a proprietary formulation containing Fortetropin® and sold directly to physicians to give to their patients who are focused on wellness. The Company recorded $14 in net revenue relating to this product for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

 

 22 

 

 

In March 2017, we launched Qurr, a Fortetropin®-powered product line formulated to support the vital role of muscle in overall well-being as well as in fitness. Qurr is a line of flavored puddings, powders, and shakes for daily use. Our Qurr line of muscle-focused over-the-counter products are available through a convenient, direct-to-consumer e-commerce platform at www.qurr.com. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 the Company recorded $113 of net revenue for our Qurr product line.

 

In November 2017, the Company announced the debut of its collegiate sports marketing platform promoting the benefits of muscle health, through a sponsorship deal with IMG College, a division of IMG (“IMG”). For the six months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded $125 of marketing expenses related to IMG as a part of operating expenses. As of June 30, 2018 the Company has net accounts payable due to IMG of $12.

 

In April 2018, we launched a new sports nutrition product line YolkedTM that has received the prestigious Certified for Sport® certification from NSF International. YolkedTM is an all-natural nutrition product based on Fortetropin® that will be marketed specifically to competitive athletes. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 the Company recorded $15 of net revenue for our product line YolkedTM as a result of our marketing agreement with IMG and other efforts.

 

In June 2018, we launched our Fortetropin® based pet product Myos Canine Muscle Formula. Two veterinarian hospitals had previously performed some informal observational studies with older dogs experiencing muscle atrophy and saw positive results after taking our pet product. We believe that the positive feedback we are receiving from these two hospitals, together with the potential results from our Kansas State University study, will enable us to grow our pet business product line.

 

We continue to pursue additional distribution and branded sales opportunities. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure distribution arrangements on terms acceptable to the Company, or that we will be able to generate significant sales of our current and future branded products. We expect to continue developing our own core branded products in markets such as functional foods, sports and fitness nutrition and rehabilitation and restorative health and to pursue international sales opportunities. The growing awareness of the potential uses of myostatin reducing ingredients supports continued development of our own core products. We remain committed to continuing our focus on various clinical trials in support of enhancing our commercial strategy as well as enhancing our intellectual property assets, to develop product improvements and new products, and to reduce the cost of our products by finding more efficient manufacturing processes and contract manufacturers. 

 

Clinical and Basic Research Programs

 

We invest in research and development activities externally through academic and industry collaborations aimed at enhancing our products, optimizing manufacturing and broadening the product portfolio. We have developed the following collaborations with various academic centers:

 

  In May 2018, the Company entered into a research agreement with Weill Cornell Medical College to study the efficacy of Fortetropin® in preventing weight and muscle loss associated with cancer in a mouse model of lung cancer. The Company anticipates that the study will be completed and the results announced around the end of the first quarter of 2019.
     
  In March 2018, we entered into a research agreement with Rutgers University, The State University of New Jersey, to work with Rutgers researchers in a program focused on discovering compounds and products for improving muscle health and performance.

 

 23 

 

 

  In December 2017, we entered into an agreement with the University of California, Berkeley’s Department of Nutritional Sciences & Toxicology.  The research project will study the effects of Fortetropin® on increasing the fractional rate of skeletal muscle protein synthesis in men and women between 60 and 75 years of age. The Principal Investigator for this clinical study is William J. Evans, PhD, Adjunct Professor of Human Nutrition at the Department of Nutritional Sciences & Toxicology at the University of California, Berkeley campus. Professor Evans, a leading authority in muscle health research, will coordinate the activities of a multi-disciplinary team of scientists and physicians. In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study, 20 subjects, men and women 60 – 75 years of age, will consume either Fortetropin® or a placebo for 21 days along with daily doses of a heavy water tracer.  After 21 days, a micro-biopsy will be collected from each subject to determine the fractional rate of muscle protein synthesis. The Company anticipates the clinical study will be completed by the second quarter of 2019.

 

  In April 2017, we entered into an agreement with the College of Veterinary Medicine at Kansas State University to study the impact of Fortetropin® on reducing muscle atrophy in dogs after tibial-plateau-leveling osteotomy (TPLO) surgery to repair the cranial cruciate ligament (CCL). The study is expected to be completed by the end of 2018.

 

  In May 2015, we initiated a dose response clinical study led by Jacob Wilson, Ph.D., CSCS*D, Professor of Health Sciences and Human Performance at the University of Tampa, to examine the effects of Fortetropin® supplementation on plasma myostatin levels at various dosing levels in young adult males and females. This study was intended to help us better define the dose response curve, the minimal effective dose and effects of Fortetropin® on serum myostatin. In this double blind placebo controlled clinical study, 80 male and female subjects ranging in ages between 18 and 22 were randomized into four groups such that no significant differences in serum myostatin concentration existed between groups. Following assignment to one of the four groups, blood samples were collected to establish baseline values. Subjects were subsequently supplemented with three different doses of Fortetropin® (2.0g, 4.0g and 6.6g) and a matching placebo for one week. Following one week of supplementation, blood samples were collected and serum myostatin levels were assayed. Results demonstrated that Fortetropin® is effective as a myostatin reducing agent at daily doses of 4.0g and 6.6g. This research, which continues to build upon our current understanding of Fortetropin®, may result in the formulation of new products. An abstract of this study was presented at the 2016 International Conference on Frailty & Sarcopenia Research (Philadelphia, PA) in April 2016.

 

  In August 2014, we entered into a research agreement with Human Metabolome Technologies America, Inc., (“HMT”), to apply their proprietary, state-of-the-art capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (CE-MS) technologies to characterize the metabolomic profiles of plasma samples obtained from healthy male subjects who used either Fortetropin® or placebo with the goal of identifying metabolites with pro-myogenic activity in the plasma samples of subjects who took Fortetropin® as well as examining the effect on glucose and fat metabolism. HMT used a metabolite database of over 290 lipids and over 900 metabolites to identify potential plasma biomarkers of muscle growth. The study was completed during the fourth quarter of 2014. Initial data from this study indicated that subjects who received Fortetropin® displayed differential metabolomic profiles relative to subjects who received placebo. The results of this study enhanced our understanding of the mechanism of action of Fortetropin® and provided guidance for the development of biotherapeutics based on Fortetropin®. Additionally, the early indications of plasma biomarkers may guide future study design for Fortetropin® clinical trials by identifying clinically-relevant endpoints and potential stratification of patient populations. The results from this study were presented at the Sarcopenia, Cachexia and Wasting Disorders Conference (Berlin, Germany) in December 2016.

  In May 2014, we entered into an agreement with the University of Tampa to study the effects of Fortetropin® supplementation in conjunction with modest resistance training in 18-21 year old males. The study was a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial which examined the effects of Fortetropin® on skeletal muscle growth, lean body mass, strength, and power in recreationally trained males. Forty-five subjects were divided into placebo, 6.6g and 19.8g dosing arms of Fortetropin® daily for a period of 12 weeks. Results demonstrated a statistically significant increase in both muscle thickness and lean body mass in subjects taking Fortetropin® but not in subjects taking placebo. The clinical study also analyzed blood myostatin and cytokines levels via high-sensitivity enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (“ELISA”) based analysis. Serum was analyzed for a plethora of relative cytokine levels via high-sensitivity enhanced chemiluminescent-based methods. The Interferon-Gamma (“IFN-γ”) inflammatory cytokine protocol screening showed no statistically significant changes in serum levels of IFN-γ for subjects in the placebo group. However, subjects in both Fortetropin® daily dosing arms experienced statistically significant decreases (p < 0.05) in serum levels of the IFN-γ inflammatory cytokine. IFN-γ is recognized as a signature pro-inflammatory cytokine protein that plays a central role in inflammation and autoimmune diseases. Excess levels of inflammatory cytokines are associated with muscle-wasting diseases such as sarcopenia and cachexia. The lipid serum safety protocol demonstrated that daily use of Fortetropin® at recommended and three times the recommended dose had no adverse lipid effect and did not adversely affect cholesterol, HDL or triglyceride levels. Data from the study was presented at the American College of Nutrition’s 55th annual conference. A separate mechanism of action study at the University of Tampa demonstrated that in addition to reducing serum myostatin levels, Fortetropin® showed activity in mTOR and Ubiquitin pathways, two other crucial signaling pathways in the growth and maintenance of healthy muscle. Specifically, the preclinical data showed that Fortetropin® up-regulates the mTOR regulatory pathway. The mTOR pathway is responsible for production of a protein kinase related to cell growth and proliferation that increases skeletal muscle mass. Up-regulation of the mTOR pathway is important in preventing muscle atrophy. We believe Fortetropin®’s ability to affect the mTOR pathway may have a significant impact in treating patients suffering from degenerative muscle diseases and suggests that Fortetropin®-based products may help slow muscle loss secondary to immobility and denervation. The preclinical data also demonstrated that Fortetropin® acts to reduce the synthesis of proteins in the Ubiquitin Proteasome Pathway, a highly selective, tightly regulated system that serves to activate muscle breakdown. Over-expression of the Ubiquitin Proteasome Pathway is responsible for muscle degradation. We believe Fortetropin®’s ability to regulate production in the Ubiquitin Proteasome Pathway may have significant implications for repairing age-related muscle loss and for patients suffering from chronic diseases.

 

  In May 2014, we entered into a three-year master service agreement with Rutgers University to develop cell-based assays for high-throughput screening studies of next generation pro-myogenic compounds. This research was completed in 2015. We believe the assays developed will enable us to elucidate the specific molecules in Fortetropin® that impart activity as it relates to the development of muscle tissue.

 

The foregoing agreements are an integral part of our business strategy and we believe they will provide a clear scientific rationale for Fortetropin®’s role as an advanced nutritional product and support its use in different medical and health applications in the future.

 

We intend to pursue additional clinical studies and medical research to support differentiated and advantaged marketing claims, to build and enhance our competitive insulation through an aggressive intellectual property strategy, to develop product improvements and new products in consumer preferred dosage forms, to enhance overall marketing, to establish a scientific foundation for therapeutic applications for our technology, and to pursue best in class personnel.

Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased 2% to $2,298, compared to operating expenses of $2,261 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The $37 increase is due primarily to 24% increase in selling, marketing and research expenses of $121 due to the studies we are currently performing with various universities and hospitals and a 3% increase in personnel and benefits of $21, offset by a 10% decrease in general and administrative of $105.

Liquidity and Capital Resources 

 

As of the filing date of this report, management believes that there may not be sufficient capital resources from operations and existing financing arrangements in order to meet operating expenses and working capital requirements for the next twelve months. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Accordingly, the Company is evaluating various alternatives, including reducing operating expenses, securing additional financing through debt or equity securities to fund future business activities and other strategic alternatives. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to generate the level of operating revenues in its business plan, or if additional sources of financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If no additional sources of financing are available, our future operating prospects may be adversely affected. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

 

Working capital at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 is summarized as follows:

 

   June 30,   December 31,   Increase 
   2018   2017   (Decrease) 
Current Assets:            
Cash  $508   $923   $(415)
Accounts receivable, net   2    4    (2)
Inventories, net   1,767    1,779    (12)
Prepaid expenses and other assets   112    163    (51)
Total current assets  $2,389   $2,869   $(480)
Current liabilities:               
Accounts payable  $249   $176   $73 
Accrued expenses and other current liabilities   168    255    (87)
Total current liabilities  $417   $431   $(14)

 

Working capital decreased $466 to $1,972 at June 30, 2018 compared to $2,438 at December 31, 2017.

 

Significant changes in working capital components were as follows:

 

  Cash decreased $415 due to $1,868 used in operating activities, which was partially offset by net proceeds of $1,453 from the sale of common stock, net of costs during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

 

 

 

Prepaid expenses and other assets decreased $51 primarily due to a net decrease in insurance premiums and consulting fees of $69 offset by an increase in other prepaid expenses of $18.
     
  Accounts payable increased $73 due to timing of vendor invoices for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

 

  Accrued expenses and other current liabilities decreased $87 primarily due to a decrease in accrued professional fees and other current liabilities of $140 and a decrease in insurance financing of $57, partially offset by an increase in accrued research and development of $110.

 

At June 30, 2018, we had cash of $508 and total assets of $4,145 (which includes $1,496 of intangible assets).

 

Summarized cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 are as follows:

 

   Six Months Ended
June 30,
     
   2018   2017   Change 
Net cash used in operating activities  $(1,770)  $(2,523)  $753 
Net cash provided by financing activities   1,355    1,801    (446)
Net decrease in cash  $415   $722   $307 

 

Net cash used in operating activities represents net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in operating assets and liabilities.

 

 28 

 

 

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 decreased $563 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 decreased $256 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017.

 

For additional information about the changes in operating assets and liabilities refer to the above discussion on working capital.

 

On April 27, 2018 the Company consummated a private placement of shares of common stock pursuant to the terms of a securities purchase agreement dated as of April 25, 2018 at a purchase price of $1.24 per share. In the private placement, the Company issued 806,452 shares of common stock to a group of accredited investors, including two members of the Company’s board of directors, for aggregate gross proceeds of $1.0 million. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the private placement primarily for working capital, research and development, strategic initiatives and other general corporate purposes.

 

Long-term Contractual Obligations

 

At June 30, 2018, the Company’s enforceable and legally binding contractual obligations include future minimum lease payments under a non-cancellable operating lease and purchase obligations under a long-term supply agreement.

 

Supply Agreement

 

At June 30, 2018, the future minimum payments under the supply agreement for the remaining months of 2018 are approximately $72. The agreement expires on December 31, 2018, and the Company has the unilateral right to renew the agreement for subsequent one-year terms.

 

Clinical and Basic Research Programs

 

At June 30, 2018 the future minimum payments for collaborations with various academic centers in excess of one year were as follows:

 

Years Ended December 31,  Amount 
2018 (remaining six months)  $100 
2019   140 
Total  $240 

 

Operating Lease Agreement

 

At June 30, 2018, the future minimum lease payments under the non-cancellable operating lease were as follows:

 

Years Ended December 31,  Amount 
2018 (remaining six months)  $36 
2019   72 
Total  $108 

 

For additional information about the operating lease refer to “NOTE 11 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES – Operating Lease” in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The new guidance expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payments granted to nonemployees in exchange for goods or services used or consumed in an entity’s own operations, and supersedes the guidance in ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. The most significant change resulting from this update is that stock-based awards granted to non-employees will no longer need to be re-measured at fair value at each financial reporting date until performance is complete, as these awards will be measured at fair value at the grant date. The guidance is effective January 1, 2019 with early adoption permitted, including in an interim period for which financial statements have not been issued. The Company has evaluated the impact of early adoption of this ASU and determined that it will have no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In March 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-5 – Income Taxes (Topic 740):  Amendments to SEC Paragraphs pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118. This ASU provided guidance related to Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”), which addresses the accounting implications of the Tax Act. SAB 118 allows a company to record provisional amounts during a measurement period not to extend beyond one year of the enactment date and was effective upon issuance. We have analyzed the Tax Act, and in certain areas, have made reasonable estimates of the effects on our condensed consolidated financial statements and tax disclosures.

 

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. The amendments in this Update provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. This update is effective for all entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, for (1) public business entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued and (2) all other entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been made available for issuance. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. The adoption of ASU 2017-09, effective January 1, 2018, did not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements. 

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), which requires lessees to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will continue to primarily depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. However, unlike current U.S. GAAP, which requires only capital leases to be recognized on the balance sheet, ASU 2016-02 will require both types of leases to be recognized on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-02 also requires disclosures about the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements, providing additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. ASU 2016-02 is effective beginning January 1, 2019, with early application permitted. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, which provides targeted improvements to the new lease standard, including an option to apply the transition provisions at its adoption date instead of at the earliest comparative period presented in its financial statements. We have evaluated the adoption of ASU 2016-02 and determined that the standard will not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, equity and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statement and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future non-conforming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates include but are not limited to the valuation of stock-based awards, measurement of allowances for doubtful accounts and inventory reserves, the amount of deferred offering costs recognized, the selection of asset useful lives, fair value estimations used to test long-lived assets, including intangibles, impairments, and provisions necessary for assets and liabilities.

 

The Company has historically recorded minimal sales during the past sixteen consecutive quarters. In June 2018, the Company launched a Fortetropin® based pet product called Myos Canine Muscle Formula. In April 2018, the Company launched YolkedTM , a new sports nutrition product line. In March 2017, the Company launched Qurr, a Fortetropin® powered product line to support the vital role of muscle in overall well-being.

 

Management’s estimates, including evaluation of impairment of long-lived assets and inventory reserves are based in part on forecasted future results. A variety of factors could cause actual results to differ from forecasted results and these differences could have a significant effect on asset carrying amounts.

 

 30 

 

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Management regularly reviews accounts receivable, and if necessary, establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts that reflects management’s best estimate of amounts that may not be collectible based on historical collection experience and specific customer information. Bad debt expense recognized as a result of an allowance for doubtful accounts is classified under general and administrative expenses in the statements of operations. If we are unable to collect our outstanding accounts receivable from our distributors, or if our distributors are unable or unwilling to purchase our products, our operating results and financial condition will be adversely affected.

 

Fair Value of Long-Lived Assets

 

We test long-lived assets, including fixed assets and intangibles with finite lives, for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the net carrying amount is greater than its fair value. Assets are grouped and evaluated at the lowest level for their identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets. We consider historical performance and future estimated results in our evaluation of potential impairment and then compare the carrying amount of the asset to the future estimated cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds estimated expected undiscounted future cash flows, we measure the amount of impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to its fair value. The estimation of fair value is generally measured by discounting expected future cash flows at the rate we utilize to evaluate potential investments. We estimate fair value based on the information available in making the necessary estimates, judgments and projections.

 

Intangible assets include patent costs associated with applying for a patent and being issued a patent. Costs to defend a patent and costs to invalidate a competitor’s patent or patent application are expensed as incurred. Upon issuance of the patent, capitalized patent costs are reclassified from intangibles with indefinite lives to intangibles with finite lives and amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the estimated economic life or the initial term of the patent, generally 20 years.

 

Our policy is to evaluate intangible assets subject to amortization for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Impairment testing of intangible assets subject to amortization involves comparing the carrying amount of the asset to the forecasted undiscounted future cash flows. In the event the carrying value of the asset exceeds the undiscounted future cash flows, the carrying value is considered not recoverable and an impairment exists. An impairment loss is measured as the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its fair value, calculated using a discounted future cash flow method. The computed impairment loss is recognized in the period that the impairment occurs. Assets which are not impaired may require an adjustment to the remaining useful lives for which to amortize the asset.

 

Intangible assets also includes patent costs associated with applying for a patent and being issued a patent. Costs to defend a patent and costs to invalidate a competitor’s patent or patent application are expensed as incurred. Upon issuance of the patent, capitalized patent costs are reclassified from intangibles with indefinite lives to intangibles with finite lives and amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the estimated economic life or the initial term of the patent, generally 20 years.

 

There were no impairment charges for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

Stock-based payments are measured at their estimated fair value on the date of grant. Stock-based compensation expense recognized during a period is based on the estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest. For stock options and restricted stock that do not vest immediately but which contain only a service vesting feature, we recognize compensation cost on the unvested shares and options on a straight-line basis over the remaining vesting period.

 

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of options and the market price of our common stock on the date of grant for the fair value of restricted stock issued. Our determination of the fair value of stock-based awards is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to our expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and certain other market variables such as the risk-free interest rate.

 

 31 

 

 

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes using an asset and liability approach which allows for the recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets based upon the likelihood of realization of tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before we are able to realize their benefits, or that future deductibility is uncertain.

 

We record a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, if any, based on our estimates of future taxable income as well as tax planning strategies when it is more likely than not that a portion or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. If we are able to utilize more of our deferred tax assets than the net amount previously recorded when unanticipated events occur, an adjustment to deferred tax assets would increase our net income when those events occur.

 

Inventory Reserves

 

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis.  Our policy is to recognize an inventory reserve as a loss in earnings in the period in which evidence exists that the net realizable value of inventory is less than its cost due to damage, physical deterioration, obsolescence, and changes in inventory reserve estimates, changes in price levels or other causes. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less costs to complete and sell finished goods, including direct selling costs such as transportation and sales commissions as well as inventory write-offs.  The multiple possible outcomes that can result from applying lower of cost or net realizable value can make inventory valuation highly complex.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

We are a smaller reporting company, and therefore, we are not required to provide information required by this Item of Form 10-Q.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures 

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that is designed to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedure include, without limitations, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

In accordance with Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15, an evaluation was completed by our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2018. Based on that evaluation, management concluded that due to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

 

We are implementing remedial measures designed to address the material weakness

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II-OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

On January 6, 2017, in connection with the financing contemplated by a securities purchase agreement with RENS Technology Inc. (the “Purchaser”), we commenced an action in the Supreme Court of New York, County of New York (the “Court”), against the Purchaser, RENS Agriculture, the parent company of the Purchaser, and Ren Ren, a principal in both entities and one of our directors, arising from the Purchaser’s breach of the agreement under which the Purchaser agreed to invest an aggregate of $20.25 million in our company in exchange for an aggregate of 3,537,037 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 884,259 shares of common stock.

  

On April 11, 2017, the Court noted that we had demonstrated a likelihood of success on the merits of the breach of contract claim. Thereafter, a hearing was scheduled on the application by the Purchaser to dismiss the complaint and various pre-trial discovery applications by both parties.

 

In August 2017, the Company amended its complaint repeating most of the initial claims but adding several additional claims against RENS Agriculture, Mr. Ren and two additional Chinese defendants, including a claim against RENS Agriculture for breaching the exclusive distribution agreement, as well as claims against all defendants for theft and misappropriation of our confidential proprietary information and trade secrets, breach of fiduciary duty and duty of loyalty, misappropriation of corporate opportunity, unfair competition and a number of other torts. We are seeking damages and injunctive relief. The Purchaser has filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint, which is still pending and scheduled for oral argument in August 2018.

 

On August 16, 2017, the Purchaser commenced an action in the District Court of Clark County in the State of Nevada against us and Joseph Mannello, our then interim Chief Executive Officer, alleging that Mr. Mannello had breached his fiduciary duties and was grossly negligent in managing our company. The action seeks monetary damages and injunctive relief from Mr. Mannello as well as the appointment of a receiver over us. Subsequently, the Purchaser submitted a petition to appoint a receiver and we and Mr. Mannello submitted a motion to dismiss the action, both of which are currently pending as of the date of this report. An application on consent to adjourn the hearing date on the receiver application and motion to dismiss is pending.

 

The parties are currently in settlement discussions regarding the foregoing matters.

 

The outcome of the aforementioned matters cannot be determined as of the date of this report.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this report are any of the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2018. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or results of operations.

 

As of the date of this report, other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the SEC, except we may disclose changes to such factors or disclose additional factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.

 

We have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting which could, if not remediated, result in material misstatements in our financial statements.

 

Our management has identified a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting. A material weakness is defined as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weakness that we identified was the lack of segregation of duties within our accounting and finance group as a result of our limited financial resources. We are remediating this weakness, primarily through supplementing our accounting and finance staff with an outside financial expert to assist our financial statements and periodic reports. If our remedial measures are insufficient to address the material weakness, or if additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal control are discovered or occur in the future, our financial statements may contain material misstatements and we could be required to restate our financial results, which could lead to substantial additional costs for accounting and legal fees and shareholder litigation.
