Overview
Reflect Scientific is engaged in the manufacture and distribution of innovative products targeted at the life science market. Our customers include hospitals, diagnostic laboratories, pharmaceutical and biotech companies, cold chain management, universities, government and private sector research facilities, chemical and industrial companies.
Our goal is to provide our customers with the best solution for their needs. This philosophy extends into our business strategies and acquisition plans. Through a series of strategic acquisitions, we acquired technology that has enabled us to expand our line of products to align with, and capitalize on, market needs. Our growing product portfolio includes ultra-low temperature freezers, blast freezers, solvent chillers and refrigerated transportation in addition to supplying OEM products to the life sciences industry.
Our Cryometrix brand ultra-low temperature and blast freezers innovative design enables our customers to save substantially on energy costs related to cryogenic storage. Ultra-low temperature freezers are used worldwide for the storage of vaccines, DNA, RNA, proteins and many other biological and chemical substances. There is a growing need for energy efficient, reliable ultra-low temperature storage units. Our Cryometrix freezers are targeted to this growing market and we have had tremendous success in blood storage and pharmaceutical manufacturing applications. The application of this technology for use in refrigerated trailers (commonly called “reefers”) used to transport goods which need to be maintained in a cold environment significantly broadens the market for this technology. The utilization of this technology in reefers eliminates the current method of cooling, which uses engines run on hydrocarbon fuels. The Cryometrix technology is pollutant free and is more efficient and cost effective than the technologies currently used. Reflect Scientific has added a new product line of solvent chillers. Solvent chillers are used in natural products extraction for optimizing product yield and purity.
Recent Developments
None.
Impact of Coronavirus Pandemic
Starting in late 2019, a novel strain of the coronavirus, or COVID-19, began to rapidly spread around the world and every state in the United States. Most states and cities have at various times instituted quarantines, restrictions on travel, “stay at home” rules, social distancing measures and restrictions on the types of businesses that could continue to operate, as well as guidance in response to the pandemic and the need to contain it. At this time, there continues to be significant volatility and uncertainty relating to the full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and the various responses to it will impact our business, operations and financial results.
The pandemic has impacted and may continue to impact some suppliers and manufacturers on some of our products. As a result, we have faced and may continue to face longer supply chain lead-times and higher logistics costs. Additionally, costs for raw materials have also started to increase due to availability, which could negatively affect its business and financial results.
The extent to which the pandemic may impact our results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted as of the date of this report, including the effectiveness of vaccines and other treatments for COVID-19, and other new information that may emerge concerning the severity of the pandemic and steps taken to contain the pandemic or treat its impact, among others. Nevertheless, the pandemic and the current financial, economic and capital markets environment, and future developments in the global supply chain and other areas present material uncertainty and risk with respect to our performance, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
12
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On a regular basis, we evaluate these estimates. These estimates are based on management’s historical industry experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
For a description of the accounting policies that, in management’s opinion, involve the most significant application of judgment or involve complex estimation and which could, if different judgment or estimates were made, materially affect our reported financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, there were no significant changes in our accounting policies and estimates.

Revenues. Revenues decreased by $512,449, or 68.0%, to $241,127 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $753,576 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The change was primarily due to a significant decrease in freezer and chiller sales and ongoing supply chain delays with manufacturers.

Cost of goods sold. Cost of good sold decreased by $120,656, or 51.5%, to $113,633 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $234,289 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The change was primarily due to decreased freezer and chillers sales.
Grossprofit. Our gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased to 52.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to 68.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The change in gross profit percentage was primarily due to the decrease in freezer and chiller sales (freezer and chillers have higher margins than other products) and increased product costs.
Salaries and wages. Salaries and wages decreased by $8,004, or 4.7%, to $162,275 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $170,279 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Such decrease was primarily due to decreased headcount.
General and administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased by $10,186, or 8.7%, to $106,992 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $117,178 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The lower expense level was not the result of significant savings in any one expense category but is, rather, the cumulative result of small savings in numerous expenses, offset by increased public filing and insurance costs.
Researchand development. Research and development expenses decreased by $19,259, or 76.0%, to $6,066 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $25,325 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The change was primarily a result of decreased enhancements to the ultra-cold CBD oil chiller during the quarter.
Net income (loss). As a result of the cumulative effect of the factors described above, our net loss was $147,839 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to net income of $206,505 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Management continues to look for opportunities to increase sales, improve gross margins and control ongoing operating expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our current assets exceeded current liabilities by $2,052,802 and $2,179,237, respectively, and we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,199,069 and $1,381,927, respectively. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through revenue generated from operations, cash proceeds from financing activities, borrowings, and equity contributions by our shareholders.
Summary of Cash Flow
The following table provides detailed information about our net cash flow for the period indicated:

| Cash and cash equivalents at end of period | $ | 1,199,069 | $ | 1,579,533 |
Net cash used in operating activities was $182,858 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $105,609 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Significant factors affecting operating cash flows was primarily a result of increased accounts payable and accrued expense payments and decreased net income during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
We continue working to enhance our on-line ordering system to increase sales, develop the market for our ultra-low temperature freezers, work with current vendors to obtain more favorable pricing, and locate new vendors to provide opportunities to further reduce our cost of goods.

We will continue to focus our efforts on our core business activities while pursuing capital resources and evaluating potential future acquisitions which fit within and enhance our core business.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief principal officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, our management has carried out an evaluation, with the participation and under the supervision of our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of March 31, 2023. Based upon, and as of the date of this evaluation, our chief executive officer and principal financial officer determined that there have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting as of March 31, 2023 to the material weaknesses described in Item 9A “Controls and Procedures” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these, or other matters, may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.
