NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business and Basis of Presentation

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements contained in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 ("Form 10-K"). The results of operations for the periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full years.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LiqTech International, Inc. (“Parent”) and its subsidiaries. The terms "Company", “us", "we" and "our" as used in this report refer to Parent and its subsidiaries, which are set forth below. The Company engages in the development, design, production, marketing and sale of automated filtering systems, ceramic silicon carbide liquid and diesel particulate air filters in United States, Canada, Europe, Asia and South America. Set forth below is a description of Parent and each of its subsidiaries:

LiqTech International, Inc., a Nevada corporation organized in July 2004, formerly known as Blue Moose Media, Inc.

LiqTech USA, a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent formed in May 2011.

LiqTech International AS, a Danish corporation, incorporated on January 15, 2000 (“LiqTech Int. DK”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of LiqTech USA, engages in development, design, application, marketing and sales of membranes on ceramic diesel particulate and liquid filters and catalytic converters in Europe, Asia and South America.

LiqTech NA, Inc. (“LiqTech NA”), incorporated in Delaware on July 1, 2005, a wholly-owned subsidiary of LiqTech USA. LiqTech NA, Inc. engages in the production, marketing and sale of ceramic diesel particulate and liquid filters and kiln furniture in United States and Canada.

LiqTech Systems AS, a Danish Corporation ("LiqTech Systems") (Formerly Provital Solutions AS) was incorporated on September 1, 2009 and engages in the manufacture of fully automated filtering systems for application within the pool and spa markets, marine applications, and a number of industrial applications within Denmark and international markets.

LiqTech Germany (“LiqTech Germany”), a 100% owned subsidiary of LiqTech Int. DK, incorporated in Germany on December 9, 2011, engaged in marketing and sale of liquid filters in Germany. The Company is in the process of closing operations, which is expected to be completed during 2018.

LiqTech PTE Ltd (“LiqTech Sing”), a 95% owned subsidiary of LiqTech Int. DK, incorporated in Singapore on January 19, 2012, engaged in marketing and sale of liquid filters in Singapore and other countries in the area. The Company is in the process of closing operations, which is expected to be completed during 2018.

Consolidation -- The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company. The non-controlling interests in the net assets of the subsidiaries are recorded in equity. The non-controlling interests of the results of operations of the subsidiaries are included in the results of operations and recorded as the non-controlling interest in subsidiaries. All material inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in the consolidation.

Functional Currency / Foreign currency translation -- The functional currency of LiqTech International, Inc., LiqTech USA, Inc. and LiqTech NA is the U.S. Dollar. The Functional Currency of LiqTech Int. DK and LiqTech Systems AS is the Danish Krone (“DKK”), the functional currency of LiqTech Germany is the Euro and the functional currency of LiqTech Singapore is the Singapore Dollar. The Company’s reporting currency is U.S. Dollar for the purpose of these condensed consolidated financial statements. The foreign subsidiaries balance sheet accounts are translated into U.S. Dollars at the period-end exchange rates and all revenue and expenses are translated into U.S. Dollars at the average exchange rates prevailing during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. Translation gains and losses are deferred and accumulated as a component of other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses that arose from exchange rate fluctuations from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the statement of operations as incurred.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash -- The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had no balances held in a financial institution in the United States in excess of federally insured amounts at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

Accounts Receivable -- Accounts receivables consist of trade receivables arising in the normal course of business. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts which reflects the Company’s best estimate of probable losses inherent in the accounts receivable balance. The Company determines the allowance based on known troubled accounts, historical experience, and other currently available evidence. 

The roll forward of the allowance for doubtful accounts for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017 is as follows:

Inventory -- Inventory is carried at the lower of cost or market, as determined on the first-in, first-out method.

Property and Equipment -- Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized, upon being placed in service. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed for financial statement purposes on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to ten years (See Note 4).

Long-Term Investments -- Investments in non-consolidated companies are included in long-term investments in the consolidated balance sheet and are accounted for under the cost method and equity method. For these non-quoted investments, we regularly review the assumptions underlying the operating performance and cash flow forecasts based on information requested from these privately held companies. Generally, this information may be more limited, may not be as timely as and may be less accurate than information available from publicly traded companies. Assessing each investment's carrying value requires significant judgment by management. If it is determined that there is an-other-than-temporary decline in the fair value of a non-public equity security, we write-down the investment to its fair value and record the related write-down as an investment loss in the consolidated statement of operations.

Intangible Assets -- Definite life intangible assets include patents. The Company accounts for definite life intangible assets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board, (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification, (“ASC”) Topic 350, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” and amortized the patents on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of two to ten years. 

Revenue Recognition and Sales Incentives 

Revenue Recognition -- Adoption of the new revenue standard: On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which includes clarifying ASUs issued in 2015, 2016 and 2017 (“new revenue standard”). The new revenue standard was applied to all open revenue contracts using the modified-retrospective method as of January 1, 2018. The new revenue standard did not have a material impact on revenue recognition. The Company does not expect the impact of the adoption of the new standard to be material to net income on an ongoing basis.

Accounting policy: Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied which occurs when control of the system, membrane, DPF or services are transferred to the customer. The majority of the Company's sales contracts contain performance obligations satisfied at a point in time when title and risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer. This generally occurs when the product is shipped or accepted by the customer.  Revenue for service contracts are recognized as the services are provided. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring the goods or providing services. The satisfaction of performance obligations under the terms of a revenue contract generally gives rise for the right to payment from the customer. The Company's standard payment terms vary by the type and location of the customer and the products or services offered. Generally, the time between when revenue is recognized and when payment is due is not significant. Pre-Payments received prior to satisfaction of performance obligations are recorded as a customer deposit liability. Given the insignificant days between revenue recognition and receipt of payment, financing components do not exist between the Company and its customers. In Denmark, Value Added Tax (“VAT”) of 25% of the invoice amount is collected in respect of the sales of goods on behalf of tax authorities. The VAT collected is not revenue of the Company; instead, the amount is recorded as a liability on the balance sheet until such VAT is paid to the authorities.   The estimated costs of product warranties are recognized as expense when the products are sold. See Note 9 for further information on product warranties. 

For contracts with customers that include multiple performance obligations, judgment is required to determine whether performance obligations specified in these contracts are distinct and should be accounted for as separate revenue transactions for recognition purposes. For such arrangements, revenue is allocated to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Standalone selling prices are generally determined based on the prices charged to customers or using expected cost plus margin. Impairment losses recognized on receivables or contract assets were not significant for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

The customer generally arranges and pays for shipping activities.  When the Company does arrange for shipping, it is billed to the Customer. The Cost to prepare the product for shipment handling are paid by the Company and reported on the line “Cost of goods sold” in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations.

System sales are recognized when the Company transfers control based upon signed acceptance of the system by the customer, upon shipment or upon final installation of the system based on the terms of the contract. For the majority of Liquid Membrane Filters and Diesel Particulate Filters, the Company transfers control and recognizes revenue when products are shipped to the customer according to the terms of the contract or purchase order. Aftermarket sales represent part sales, extended warranty and maintenance services. For the sale of aftermarket parts, the Company transfers control and recognizes revenue when parts are shipped to the customer or services are provided. When customers are given the right to return eligible parts and accessories, the Company estimates the expected returns based on an analysis of historical experience. The Company adjusts estimated revenues at the earlier of when the most likely amount of consideration expected to be received changes or when the consideration becomes fixed. The Company recognizes revenue for extended warranty and maintenance agreements based on the standalone selling price over the life of the contract, which reflects the costs to perform under these contracts, which corresponds with, and thereby depicts the transfer of control to the customer. For invoicing to customers where the transfer of control has not occurred (prepayments), the invoiced amount is recognized as Deferred revenue / Customer deposits.

The Company has received long-term contracts for grants from government entities for development and use of silicon carbide membranes in various water filtration and treatment applications and historically in the installation of various water filtrations systems. We measure transfer of control of the performance obligation on long-term contracts utilizing the cost-to-cost measure of progress, with cost of revenue including direct costs, such as labor and materials. Under the cost-to-cost approach, the use of estimated costs to complete each performance obligation is a significant variable in the process of determining recognized revenue and a significant factor in the accounting for such performance obligations. The timing of when we bill our customers is generally dependent upon advance billings terms, milestone billings based on completion of certain phases of the work or when services are provided, or products are shipped. Projects with performance obligations recognized over time that have costs and estimated earnings recognized to date in excess of cumulative billings are reported on our Balance Sheets as contract assets. Projects with performance obligations recognized over time that have cumulative billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings recognized to date are reported on our Balance Sheets as contract liabilities.   

The two tables below set forth the costs incurred, and earnings accrued on uncompleted contracts compared with the billings on those contracts through September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 and reconcile the net excess billings to the amounts included in the balance sheets at those dates.

The Company’s disaggregated revenue is reported in Note 12.

Advertising Cost -- Costs incurred in connection with advertising of the Company’s products is expensed as incurred. Such costs amounted to $25,018 and $9,270 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Research and Development Cost -- The Company expenses research and development costs for the development of new products as incurred. Included in operating expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were $498,526 and $375,026, respectively, of research and development costs.

Income Taxes -- The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740 Accounting for Income Taxes. This statement requires an asset and liability approach for accounting for income taxes.

Income (Loss) Per Share -- The Company calculates earnings (loss) per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per common share (EPS) are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per common share are based on shares outstanding (computed as under basic EPS) and potentially dilutive common shares. Potential common shares included in the diluted earnings per share calculation include in-the-money stock options and warrants that have been granted but have not been exercised.

Stock Options and Awards -- The Company has granted stock options to certain key employees during the years presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements (see note 11). The Company accounts for options in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Non-cash compensation costs of $93,267 and $150,013 have been recognized for the vesting of options and stock awards granted to employees.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments -- The Company accounts for fair value measurements for financial assets and liabilities in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820. The authoritative guidance that, among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as the exit price, representing the amount that would either be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Unless otherwise disclosed, the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, investments, accounts payable, accrued expenses, capital lease obligations and notes payable approximates their recorded values due to their short-term maturities.

Accounting Estimates -- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets including accounts receivable, allowance for doubtful accounts, cost in excess of billings, reserve for obsolete inventory, depreciation and impairment of property plant and equipment, and goodwill; liabilities including billings in excess of costs and contingencies; the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements; and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimated.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements -- On February 25, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases," which makes many changes to accounting for leases. The standard will be effective for public companies with interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. One of the most notable changes is many of the leases that are currently accounted for as operating leases will have to be capitalized and accounted for similarly to how capital leases are currently accounted for, unless certain criteria are met. We have begun evaluating the impact this standard will have on our lease accounting. The standard will require us to capitalize a right-of use asset and lease liability equal to the present value of the future minimum lease payments disclosed in Note 8. We will continue to evaluate the impact of this standard as the effective date approaches.   

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements. 

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company has limited cash and has recently incurred significant losses. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising additional cash through the issuance of debt or equity instruments or return to profitable operations in the future. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. 

Management believes the Company is progressing toward alleviating this substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements. During April of 2018, the Company raised $6.6 million through the sale of 19,448,529 common shares, and the Company has signed framework agreements with a total of three large marine scrubber manufacturers for the potential future sale of a significant number of filtration systems in late 2018 and 2019.

NOTE 3 - INVENTORY

Inventory consisted of the following at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

NOTE 4 - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

 NOTE 6 - DEFINITE-LIFE INTANGIBLE ASSETS

At September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, definite-life intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization, consisted of patents on the Company’s products of $1,363 and $3,349, respectively. The patents are recorded at cost and amortized over two to ten years. Amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 was $1,924 and $1,651, respectively. Expected future amortization expense for the years ended are as follows: 

NOTE 7 - LINES OF CREDIT

In connection with certain orders, the Company may provide a working guarantee, prepayment guarantee or security bond. For that purpose, we have a guarantee credit line of DKK 94,620 (approximately $14,690 at September 30, 2018) with a bank, subject to certain base limitations. As of September 30, 2018, we had DKK 94,620 (approximately $14,690) in working guarantee against the line. This line of credit is guaranteed by Vækstfonden (the Danish state's investments fund) and is secured by certain assets of LiqTech Systems such as receivables, inventory and equipment. The Company has no other available lines of credit.

NOTE 8 - LEASES

Operating Leases -- The Company leases office and production facilities under operating lease agreements expiring in November 2018, March 2019 and March 2021. In some of these lease agreements, the Company has the right to extend.

The future minimum lease payments for non-cancelable operating leases having remaining terms in excess of one year as of September 30, 2018 are as follows:

Lease expense charged to operations was $490,700 and $481,001 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Capital Leases - The Company leases equipment on various variable rate capital leases currently calling for monthly payments of approximately $1,376, which expires in February and July of 2019 whereupon we are subject to a balloon payment of $9,231 to purchase the equipment.

The following represents future minimum capital lease payments as of September 30, 2018: 

NOTE 9 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

401(K) Profit Sharing Plan -- LiqTech NA has a 401(k) profit sharing plan and trust covering certain eligible employees. The amount LiqTech NA contributes is discretionary. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, matching contributions were expensed and totaled $8,275 and $8,636, respectively.

Contingencies -- From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business.

On September 9, 2014, Mr. Raffaele Bruno Tronchetti Provera (“Plaintiff”), the 60% owner of LiqTech Italy s.r.l. (the “Venture”), sued LiqTech Int. DK, the 40% owner of the Venture (“Defendant”), for damages of €750,000 before the Court of Como, Italy, alleging, among other things, that certain products provided by Defendant to the Venture were defective. On July 31, 2018, the Judge rejected the Plaintiff’s claim and his request of compensation of €750,000, ordering the Plaintiff to pay the Company’s legal expenses.

On December 20, 2017, the Company received a demand for approximately $1,098,678 from the previous installation of a water treatment system. The customer is disputing that the system complies with the contact based on testing inputs to the system outside the parameters of the contract. The Company has completed the installation of the system, tested the system, and contends it is compliance with the contract’s requirements. On September 28, 2018 the Company entered an agreement with the customer resulting in the customer paying $437,000 as final payment of outstanding unpaid balances and foregoing any further demands.

In connection with certain orders, the Company may provide a working guarantee, prepayment guarantee, or security bond. For that purpose, we have a guarantee credit line of DKK 94,620 (approximately $14,690 at September 30, 2018) with a bank, subject to certain base limitations. As of September 30, 2018, we had DKK 94,620 (approximately $14,690) in working guarantee against the line. 

Product Warranties - The Company provides a standard warranty on its systems, generally for one to three years. The Company estimates the costs which may be incurred under its standard warranty programs and records a liability for such costs at the time product revenue is recognized.

In addition, the Company sells an extended warranty for certain systems, which generally provide a warranty for up to four years from the date of commissioning. The specific terms and conditions of those warranties vary depending upon the product sold and the country in which the Company does business. Revenue received for the sale of extended warranty contracts is deferred and recognized in the same manner as the costs incurred to perform under the warranty contracts.

The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary. Factors that affect the warranty liability include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims and the cost per claim.

Changes in the Company's current and long-term warranty obligations, including deferred revenue on extended warranty contracts included in accrued expenses on the balance sheet, are as follows:

 NOTE 10 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, Parent had 380,000 options outstanding to purchase common stock of Parent at $0.74 to $1.01 per share, and Parent had 400,000 warrants outstanding to purchase common stock of Parent at $1.65 per share, which were not included in the loss per share computation because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

As of September 30, 2018, there were 780,000 common stock equivalents from options and warrants that were excluded from the diluted EPS (earnings per share) calculation as their effect is anti-dilutive.

NOTE 11 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

The issuance of Parent preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control without further action by the stockholders and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holders of common stock.

Parent has 10,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value. As of September 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, respectively, there were 0 and 2,200,837 mandatory convertible preferred shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.

Liquidation Rights -- In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of affairs of Parent, after payment of all of our debts and liabilities and subject to the rights and preferences of the holders of any outstanding shares of any series of our preferred stock, the holders of Parent common stock will be entitled to share ratably in the distribution of any of our remaining assets.  

Other Matters -- Holders of Parent common stock have no conversion, preemptive or other subscription rights, and there are no redemption rights or sinking fund provisions with respect to our common stock. All of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock on the date of this report are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

Stock Issuances 

On April 16, 2018, Parent completed a registered public offering of its common stock. At closing, Parent issued 19,448,529 shares of common stock at a per share price of $0.34 and generated net proceeds of $5,865,077.  

On January 2, 2018, Parent issued 59,406 shares of restricted stock valued at $60,000 for services provided by the Board of Directors. The Company recognized the non-cash compensation during the period ending September 30, 2018. The shares vested immediately.

On November 22, 2017, the Parent completed a private placement of 2,200,837 shares of mandatory convertible preferred stock (1 to 4 conversion rate) or 8,803,348 shares of common stock at a per share price of $1.20 per preferred share for aggregate proceeds to the Parent of $2,641,004, net of offering costs of $127,736.  During the period ending September 30, 2018, 2,200,837 mandatory convertible preferred shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were converted into 4 common shares per share, or 8,803,348 common shares.

Common Stock Purchase Warrants 

A summary of the status of the warrants outstanding at September 30, 2018 is presented below:

At September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company had zero non-vested warrants. We have recorded non-cash compensation expense of $0 and $13,225 for the period ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 related to the warrants issued.

The exercise price of the warrants and the number of shares underlying the warrants are subject to adjustment for stock dividends, subdivisions of the outstanding shares of common stock and combinations of the outstanding shares of common stock. For so long as the warrants remain outstanding, we are required to keep reserved from our authorized and unissued shares of common stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the shares underlying the warrants.

Stock Options 

In August 2011, Parent’s Board of Directors adopted a Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”).
