Note 1 – Description of Business
INVO Bioscience (“INVO” or the “Company”) is a medical device company focused on the Assisted Reproductive Technology (“ART”) marketplace. The primary focus is the manufacture and sale of the INVOcell device and the INVO technology to provide an alternative infertility treatment option for couples. The Company’s patented device, the INVOcell, is the first Intravaginal Culture (“IVC”) system in the world used for the natural in vivo incubation of eggs and sperm during fertilization and early embryo development (the “INVO Procedure”). INVOcell was granted clearance in the United States by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (“FDA”) in November 2015, received the CE mark in October 2019, and is now positioned to help provide millions of infertile couples across the globe access to a new infertility treatment option. The Company believes this novel device and procedure provides a more natural, safe, effective, efficient and economical fertility treatment compared to current infertility treatments, including in-vitro fertilization (“IVF”) and intrauterine insemination (“IUI”). Unlike conventional infertility treatments such as IVF where the eggs and sperm develop into embryos in a laboratory incubator, the INVOcell utilizes the women’s vaginal cavity as an incubator to support a more natural fertilization and embryo development environment. This novel device promotes in vivo conception and early embryo development.
In both current utilization of the INVOcell and in clinical studies, the INVO Procedure has proven to have equivalent pregnancy success and live birth rates as the traditional assisted reproductive technique, IVF. Additionally, the Company believes there are emotional benefits of the mother’s participation in the fertilization and early embryo development by vaginal incubation compared to that of conventional IVF treatment.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 and stockholders’ equity (deficiency) and consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 of the Company, and the related information contained in these notes have been prepared by management and are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring and nonrecurring items) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for the periods presented have been made. Interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of operating results for a full year.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements present on a consolidated basis the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The preparation of the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 10-K.
The Company considers events or transactions that have occurred after the unaudited consolidated balance sheet date of June 30, 2021, but prior to the filing of the unaudited consolidated financial statements with the SEC in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, to provide additional evidence relative to certain estimates or to identify matters that require additional disclosure, as applicable. Subsequent events have been evaluated through the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Business Segments
The
Company operates in
Variable Interest Entities
The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIE’), where the Company is the primary beneficiary under the provisions of the ASC 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”).
Management makes judgments regarding the Company’s level of influence or control over an entity and whether or not the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. Various factors are considered in this analysis, including but not limited to the Company’s ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s governing body, the size and seniority of the Company’s investment, the Company’s ability and the rights of other investors to participate in policy making decisions, the Company’s ability to replace the manager and/or liquidate the entity, and the Company’s obligation to absorb losses and right to receive benefits that are significant. Management’s ability to correctly assess its influence or control over an entity when determining the primary beneficiary of a VIE affects the presentation of these entities in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. If it is determined that the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Company’s financial statements would consolidate the VIE. The Company performs a qualitative assessment of its joint ventures on an ongoing basis to determine if it continues to be a primary beneficiary.
The Company concluded it has a variable interest in its Birmingham, Alabama and Monterrey, Mexico joint ventures (the “JVs”) on the basis of its capital contributions to the JVs and the terms and conditions contained in the agreements that control the JVs. First, the Company determined that the JVs are VIEs, since the JVs’ equity at risk, as defined by GAAP, is considered to be insufficient to finance JV activities without additional support. Second, the Company determined that it has a controlling financial interest in, and thus is a primary beneficiary of the JVs. Such control stems from the Company’s power to direct activities that most significantly impact the JVs operations, and the Company’s obligation to absorb losses and its right to receive benefits from the JVs that would be significant to the JVs. Such power stems from the Company’s ability, among other things, to control the sale or transfer of the JVs capital units and/or common stock. As a result of its analysis, the Company concluded that it is a primary beneficiary of the JVs and therefore consolidates the balance sheets, results of operations and cash flows of the JVs into its own.
As of June 30, 2021, the JVs were not yet operational and therefore there was no financial information from the JVs to consolidate into the Company’s financial statements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For financial statement presentation purposes, the Company considers time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. At times, cash and cash equivalents balances exceed amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
Inventory
Inventories consist of raw materials, work in process and finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, using the first-in, first-out method as a cost flow method.
Property and Equipment
The
Company records property and equipment at cost. Property and equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated
economic lives of the assets, which are from
Long- Lived Assets
Long-lived
assets and certain identifiable assets related to those assets are periodically reviewed for impairment whenever circumstances and situations
change such that there is an indication that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If the non-discounted future cash flows of
the asset are less than their carrying amount, their carrying amounts are reduced to the fair value and an impairment loss recognized.
There was
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue on arrangements in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). The core principle of ASC 606 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services ASC 606 requires companies to assess their contracts to determine the timing and amount of revenue to recognize under the new revenue standard. The model has a five-step approach:
| 1. | Identify the contract with the customer. |
| 2. | Identify the performance obligations in the contract. |
| 3. | Determine the total transaction price. |
| 4. | Allocate the total transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract. |
| 5. | Recognize as revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied. |
| 9 |
Revenues generated from the sale of INVOcell®, are typically recognized at the time the product is shipped, at which time the title passes to the customer, and there are no further performance obligations.
On November 12, 2018, the Company entered into a U.S. Distribution Agreement (the “Ferring Agreement”) with Ferring International Center S.A. (“Ferring”), pursuant to which it granted Ferring an exclusive license in the United States market only, with rights to sublicense under patents related to our proprietary intravaginal culture device (INVOcell™), together with the retention device and any other applicable accessories (collectively, the “Licensed Product”) to market, promote, distribute and sell the Licensed Product with respect to all therapeutic, prophylactic and diagnostic uses of medical devices or pharmaceutical products involving reproductive technology (including infertility treatment) in humans.
The
Ferring license was deemed to be a functional license that provides a customer with a “right to access” to
the Company’s intellectual property during the subscription period and accordingly, under ASC 606-10-55-60 revenue is recognized
over a period of time, which is generally the subscription period. The initial upfront payment of $
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) subtopic 718-10, Compensation (“ASC 718-10”). This statement requires the Company to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the period in which the employee is required to provide service or based on performance goals in exchange for the award, which is usually the vesting period.
Basic loss per share calculations are computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include potentially dilutive securities. The Company’s diluted loss per share is the same as the basic loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, as the inclusion of any potential shares would have had an anti-dilutive effect due to the Company generating a loss.

Note 5 – Patents and Trademarks
The Company capitalizes the initial expense related to establishing patents by country and then amortizes the expense over the life of the patent, typically 20 years. It then expenses annual filing fees to maintain the patents. The Company regularly reviews the value of its patents in the marketplace in proportion to the expense it must spend to maintain the patent.

Note 7 – Leases
The Company has various operating lease agreements in place for its office and joint ventures. Per FASB’s ASU 2016-02, Leases Topic 842 (“ASU 2016-02”), effective January 1, 2019, the Company is required to report a right-of-use asset and corresponding liability to report the present value of the total lease payments, with appropriate interest calculation. Per the terms of ASU 201-02, the Company can use its implicit interest rate, if known, or applicable federal rate otherwise. Since the Company’s implicit interest rate was not readily determinable, the Company utilized the applicable federal rate, as of the commencement of the lease.

Note 13 – Income Taxes
The Company uses the asset and liability method to account for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. If a carryforward exists, the Company decides as to whether the carryforward will be utilized in the future. Currently, a valuation allowance is established for all deferred tax assets and carryforwards as their recoverability is deemed to be uncertain. If the Company’s expectations for future operating results at the federal or at the state jurisdiction level vary from actual results due to changes in healthcare regulations, general economic conditions, or other factors, it may need to adjust the valuation allowance, for all or a portion of the Company’s deferred tax assets. The Company’s income tax expense in future periods will be reduced or increased to the extent of offsetting decreases or increases, respectively, in the Company’s valuation allowance in the period when the change in circumstances occurs. These changes could have a significant impact on the Company’s future earnings.

Overview
We are a medical device company focused in the Assisted Reproductive Technology (“ART”) marketplace. Our mission is to increase access to care and expand fertility treatment and patient care across the globe. Our patented device, the INVOcell, is the first Intravaginal Culture (“IVC”) system in the world used for the natural in vivo incubation of eggs and sperm during fertilization and early embryo development. INVOcell was granted clearance in the United States by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (“FDA”) in November 2015, received the CE mark in October 2019, and is now positioned to help provide millions of infertile couples across the globe access to a new infertility treatment option. We believe this novel device and procedure provides a more natural, safe, effective, efficient and economical fertility treatment compared to current infertility treatments, including in-vitro fertilization (“IVF”) and intrauterine insemination (“IUI”). Unlike conventional infertility treatments such as IVF where the eggs and sperm develop into embryos in a laboratory incubator, the INVOcell utilizes the women’s vaginal cavity as an incubator to support a more natural fertilization and embryo development environment. As such, this novel device promotes in vivo conception and early embryo development.
In both commercial utilization of the INVOcell and in clinical studies, the INVO Procedure has proven to have equivalent pregnancy success and live birth rates as IVF. Additionally, we believe there are emotional benefits with the mother’s participation in fertilization and early embryo development by vaginal incubation compared to that of conventional IVF treatment by offering patients a more connected and personalized method to achieve pregnancy.
For many couples struggling with infertility, access to treatment is often not available. Financial challenges (cost of treatment) and limited availability (or capacity) of fertility medical care are two of the main challenges in the ART marketplace that contribute to the large percentage of untreated patients. Religious, social and cultural roadblocks can also prevent hopeful couples from realizing their dream to have a baby with conventional IVF. We believe INVOcell can address many of the key challenges in the ART market, particularly patient cost and infrastructure capacity constraints. The many benefits to the INVO solution include:
| ● | Cost: Many current clinics offering INVOcell are doing so at approximately half the cost of IVF treatment, due to reduced drugs often being prescribed for INVOcell, fewer office visits needed, and less laboratory time needed as incubation is occurring inside the body rather than in the lab incubator. |
| ● | Enhances patient capacity: The INVOcell device eliminates the need for a lab incubator as well as helps reduce the overall need for lab-support resources during the incubation period. We believe this generally supports the ability to lower costs and enables a clinic to handle a higher volume of patients on average. |
| ● | Reduces the risk of errors of wrong embryo transfers since the embryos are never separated from the woman. |
| ● | Promotes greater involvement by couples in the treatment and conception. |
| ● | Creates a more natural and environmentally stable incubation than conventional IVF incubation in a laboratory. |
In the second quarter of 2016, the first U.S. baby from the INVOcell and INVO Procedure following FDA clearance was born in Texas.
| 20 |
Sales and Marketing
Our product commercialization efforts are focused on identifying distributors and partners within targeted geographic regions that we believe can best promote, market and sale the INVOcell device and process to assist infertile couples in having a baby. We believe that our INVOcell procedure is an effective and affordable treatment option which can also be offered without the need for a more expensive IVF lab facility. We have been authorized to sell the INVOcell device in the United States since November 2015 after receiving de novo class II clearance from the US Food & Drug Administration (“FDA”). Since our January 2019 exclusive sales, marketing and distribution agreement with Ferring International Center S.A. (“Ferring”) for the U.S., our primary focus has been on supporting Ferring and establishing fertility clinics focused primarily on the INVOcell device and procedure (“INVO Centers”), as well as developing key international markets around the world.
We anticipate that we will experience quarterly fluctuations in our revenues as a result of our efforts to expand the sales of the INVO technology to new markets. We expect international sales will increase moving forward as we continue to expand our efforts to expand INVOcell globally. We will continue to seek out partners that will contractually commit to meeting agreeable performance objectives that are consistent with our goals and objectives.
Ferring
On November 12, 2018, we entered into a U.S. Distribution Agreement (the “Ferring Agreement”) with Ferring, which closed on January 14, 2019. Pursuant to the Ferring Agreement, among other things, we granted Ferring an exclusive license in the United States with rights to sublicense under patents related to our proprietary INVOcell™ intravaginal culture device together with the retention device and any other applicable accessories (collectively, the “Licensed Product”) to market, promote, distribute and sell the Licensed Product with respect to all therapeutic, prophylactic and diagnostic uses of medical devices or pharmaceutical products involving reproductive technology (including infertility treatment) in humans (the “Field”). Ferring is responsible, at its own cost, for all commercialization activities for the Licensed Product in the United States. We retained a limited exception to the exclusive license granted to Ferring allowing us, subject to certain restrictions, to establish up to five INVO Centers in the United States. We retained all commercialization rights for the Licensed Product outside of the United States. We believe the strategic partnership with a strong reproductive organization such as Ferring has helped provide us with the necessary sales and marketing resources and overall market credibility to execute our goal to expand the INVOcell device around the world.
The Ferring license was deemed to be a functional license that provides the counterparty with a “right to access” to our intellectual property during the subscription period and accordingly, revenue is recognized over a period of time, which is generally the subscription period. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we recognized $178,572 and $357,143 of revenue related to the Ferring license agreement, respectively.
As of June 30, 2021, we had deferred revenue of $3,214,286 relating to the Ferring Agreement.
On March 2, 2021, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Ferring Agreement (the “Amendment”) to provide for added flexibility by increasing the number of INVO Centers allowable under the agreement to seven and removing certain geographical requirements. Pursuant to the Amendment, Ferring agreed to purchase a 2,004 count of product for $501,000 in March 2021, and the minimum annual target for 2020 was deemed to have been satisfied in full as a result of such purchase.
International Distribution Agreements
We have entered into exclusive distribution agreements for a number of international markets. These agreements usually have an initial term with renewal options and require the distributors to meet minimum annual purchases, which vary depending on the market. We are also required to register the product in each market before the distributor can begin importing, a process and timeline that can vary widely depending on the market.

On January 13, 2020, we entered into a joint venture agreement (the “Medesole Agreement”) with Medesole Healthcare and Trading Private Limited, India (“Medesole”), an Indian corporation that promotes and distributes healthcare technologies, medical equipment and allied services to hospitals, clinics and primary health care centers in India and the Middle East.
Pursuant to the Medesole Agreement, INVO and Medesole formed a joint venture entity incorporated and registered in India, which will operate under the name Medesole INVO Bioscience India Private Limited (the “India JV”). After formation, we will grant to the India JV all required licenses for promoting, marketing and selling our INVOcell® technology in India. INVO and Medesole intend that the India JV will open and operate INVO Centers only in India.
The India JV will be co-managed and owned 50% by each of INVO and Medesole, who will share equally in the expenditures, revenues and profits of the India JV. The Agreement has a term of three years and may be terminated by either party on 180 days’ prior written notice.
Lyfe Medical Center I, LLC Partnership agreement
On April 9, 2021, we entered into a partnership agreement (the “Lyfe Agreement”) with Lyfe Medical Center I, LLC (“Lyfe”) in connection with Lyfe’s intention to establish an INVO Center in the Bay Area of California (the “Bay Area Clinic”). Pursuant to the Lyfe Agreement, we will provide embryology laboratory services in connection with the INVO Procedure and other fertility treatments (the “Lab Services”) to be provided by Lyfe to its patients at the Bay Area Clinic. Under the terms of the Lyfe Agreement, we will receive 40% of the net income received by the Bay Area Clinic for the performance of the Lab Services. As of June 30, 2021, we expended $27,611 in startup costs related to this partnership.
Operations
We operate with a core internal team and outsource certain operational functions in order to help accelerate our efforts as well as reduce fixed internal overhead needs and in-house capital equipment requirements. Our most critical management and leadership functions are carried out by our core management team. We have contracted out the manufacturing, assembly, packaging, labeling and sterilization of the device to a medical manufacturing company and to a sterilization specialist to perform the gamma sterilization process.
Our cash needs are primarily attributable to funding our sales and marketing efforts, strengthening our training capabilities, satisfying existing obligations, funding our clinical activities for additional indications for use, building an administrative infrastructure, and costs and professional fees associated with being a public company. We currently expect our existing distribution and partnership agreements, such as that with Ferring and the other more recent agreements with non-U.S. companies to provide increased revenue in the future, which we expect will help offset the higher level of spending.
We expect to continue incurring losses during 2021 as we continue to invest in INVO Centers in the United States and abroad, and in the global expansion of our business and the INVOcell technology.
We cannot accurately predict the level of success our key partners will experience in the near future. However, we anticipate that we will continue to expand the market for the INVOcell device and INVO Procedure (i) within the United States through our agreement with Ferring and our INVO Center joint ventures, and (ii) in other parts of the world with new distributor partnerships.

Results of Operations
During the second quarter of 2021, we made further progress with our commercialization goals, the addition of key personnel to our operating team and board, and the signing of our latest joint venture to establish the Atlanta Clinic. We are also rapidly moving closer to first patient visits at our announced INVO Centers, events which we expect to occur in the second half of 2021. Our recently added marketing resources are working to enhance our branding and messaging in preparation to support both the new INVO Centers as well as our distribution partners around the world. Our dedicated team is looking to aggressively drive awareness for the INVOcell through the balance of this year and the next and to help accelerate adoption and expand fertility care through the utilization of our technology.
Our commercialization efforts continue to focus on the substantial, underserved patient population and on expanding access to advanced fertility treatments. We believe our technology can help address the key challenges of affordability and capacity to provide care to the vast number of patients that go untreated every year. This represents the major opportunity for INVOcell. While the ongoing pandemic may have delayed our progress in some markets, the fertility industry has and continues to expand, and we believe our growing volume of partners (both distributors and JVs) affords us a strong forward-looking outlook.
The Assisted Reproductive Technology market also continues to benefit from a number of industry tailwinds, including 1) the large under-served potential patient population, 2) increasing infertility rates around the world 3) growing awareness and education of fertility treatment options, 4) a growing acceptance of fertility treatment, 5) improvements in procedure techniques and hence improvements in pregnancy success rates and 6) generally improving insurance (private and public) reimbursement trends.
Three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020
Revenue
Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021, was approximately $0.21 million compared to approximately $0.25 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease of approximately $0.04 million, or approximately 15%, was the result of a decrease in product sales to Ferring. Ferring’s minimum purchase requirements are based on a calendar year and hence contribute to quarterly fluctuations in revenue.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was approximately $0.19 million compared to approximately $0.22 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Gross margins were approximately 93% and 91% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021 were approximately $2.0 million compared to approximately $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

| 24 |
Other Income
Other income for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was approximately $0.16 million compared to $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was the result of the extinguishment of our Paycheck Protection Program note and related interest being forgiven.
Interest Income
Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $2,425 compared to $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was the result of interest received on funds held in a money market account.

Revenue
Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021, was approximately $0.9 million, compared to approximately $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase of approximately $0.4 million, or approximately 77%, was the result of an increase in product sales to Ferring.

Gross Profit
Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was approximately $0.8 million compared to approximately $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Gross margins were approximately 91% and approximately 90% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were approximately $4.2 million compared to approximately $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase of approximately $1.3 million, or approximately 46%, was primarily the result of approximately $0.6 million in increased personnel, board and business development consulting expenses, as well as approximately $0.3 million in startup costs related to INVO Center joint ventures and $0.3 in miscellaneous administrative costs. We incurred approximately $1.2 million of non-cash, stock-based compensation expense in the period compared to $1.0 million for the same period last year.
Research and Development Expenses
R&D expenses were $97,283 for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $64,940 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and reflect the R&D efforts related to our 5-day label expansion described above.
Other Income
Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was approximately $0.16 million compared to $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase of approximately $0.16 million was the result of the extinguishment of our Paycheck Protection Program note and related interest being forgiven.
Interest Income
Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $4,438 compared to $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase of $4,438 was the result of interest received on funds held in a money market account.
Interest Expense and Financing Fees
Interest expense and financing fees were approximately $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to approximately $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase of approximately $0.7 million was primarily non-cash and due to an increase in amortization of debt discount, debt issuance cost and interest on the 2020 Convertible Notes.
Foreign Currency Exchange
Foreign currency exchange loss for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $1,492 compared to $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase of $1,492 was the result of increased transactions with international vendors and consultants.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we had net losses of approximately $4.3 million and approximately $2.8 million, respectively. The increase in net loss was due to increased operating expenses and interest expense, partially offset by an increase in product revenue. Approximately $2.0 million of the net loss was related to non-cash expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The Company had working capital of approximately $5.5 million as of June 30, 2021, compared to approximately $8.3 million as of December 31, 2020. As of June 30, 2021, the Company’s stockholder’s equity was approximately $4.4 million compared to approximately $5.7 million as of December 31, 2020. Cash used in operation for the first six months of 2021 was approximately $2.9 million, compared to approximately $2.0 million for the first six months of 2020.
During 2020, we raised approximately $13.8 million in debt and equity financings. During the first half of 2021, we converted approximately $1.2 million of outstanding debt to equity and received approximately $370,000 of proceeds from unit purchase option and warrant exercises. Based on our current plan, we believe we have sufficient liquidity for at least the next 12 months. Until we can generate a sufficient amount of cash from operations and to the extent additional funds are necessary to meet our longer-term liquidity needs and to execute our business strategy, we may need to raise additional funding, as we have done in the past, by way of debt and/or equity financings, up-front distribution licensing fees or a combination of these potential sources of funds. Such additional funding may not be available on reasonable terms, if at all.
If we are unable to raise additional capital in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us, we may have to significantly scale back our operations or delay, scale back or discontinue development of our products. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of additional debt or equity securities, it could result in dilution to our existing stockholders and increased fixed payment obligations, and these securities may have rights senior to those of our common stock. If we incur indebtedness, we could become subject to covenants that would restrict our operations, such as limitations on our ability to incur additional debt, limitations on our ability to acquire, sell or license intellectual property rights and other operating restrictions that could adversely impact our ability to conduct our business. Any of these events could significantly harm our business, financial condition and prospects.

Cash Flows
The following table shows a summary of our cash flows for the six months ended June 30:
| 2021 | 2020 | |||||||
| Cash (used in) provided by: | ||||||||
| Operating activities | (2,909,137 | ) | (2,014,414 | ) | ||||
| Investing activities | (915,383 | ) | (29,730 | ) | ||||
| Financing activities | 369,840 | 2,309,510 | ||||||
As of June 30, 2021, we had approximately $6.6 million in cash compared to approximately $10.0 million as of December 31, 2020. Net cash used in operating activities for the first six months of 2021, was approximately $2.9 million, compared to approximately $2.0 million for the same period in 2020. The increase in net cash used in operations was primarily due to the increase in net loss, which was partially offset by a decrease in accrued compensation and an increase in inventory.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, cash used in investing activities of approximately $0.9 million was primarily related to notes receivable involved with our investments in our joint ventures, as well as additional trademarks and patents. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, cash used in investing activities of approximately $0.03 million was related to new molds and trademarks.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, cash provided by financing activities of approximately $0.4 million was primarily related to the exercise of unit purchase options and warrants.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition presented in this section is based upon our audited consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. During the preparation of the financial statements, we are required to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate, based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, our results, which allows us to form a basis for making judgments on the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates based on variance with our assumptions and conditions. A summary of significant accounting policies is included below. Management believes that the application of these policies on a consistent basis enables us to provide useful and reliable financial information about our operating results and financial condition.
| 26 |
Stock Based Compensation
We account for stock-based compensation under the provisions of ASC 718-10 Share-Based Payment (formerly SFAS 123R). This statement requires us to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the period in which the employee is required to provide service or performance goals in exchange for the award, which is usually immediate but sometimes over a vesting period. Warrants granted to non-employees are recorded as an expense over the requisite service period based on the grant date and the estimated fair value of the grant, which is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue on arrangements in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of ASC 606 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services ASC 606 requires companies to assess their contracts to determine the timing and amount of revenue to recognize under the new revenue standard. The model has a five-step approach:
| 1. | Identify the contract with the customer. |
| 2. | Identify the performance obligations in the contract. |
| 3. | Determine the total transaction price. |
| 4. | Allocate the total transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract. |
| 5. | Recognize as revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied. |
Variable Interest Entities
The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIE”), where the Company is the primary beneficiary under the provisions of the ASC 810, “Consolidation”.
Management makes judgments regarding the Company’s level of influence or control over an entity and whether or not the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. Various factors are considered in this analysis, including but not limited to the Company’s ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s governing body, the size and seniority of the Company’s investment, the Company’s ability and the rights of other investors to participate in policy making decisions, the Company’s ability to replace the manager and/or liquidate the entity, and the Company’s obligation to absorb losses and its right to receive benefits that are significant. Management’s ability to correctly assess its influence or control over an entity when determining the primary beneficiary of a VIE affects the presentation of these entities in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. If it is determined that the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Company’s financial statements would consolidate the VIE. The Company performs a qualitative assessment of its joint ventures on an ongoing basis to determine if it continues to be a primary beneficiary.
