NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE A – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation: The interim financial statements included herein, presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and footnotes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on August 10, 2023. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ended December 31, 2023. These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein.
Description of Business: Wytec International, Inc. (“Wytec,” “we,” “our,” “us,” or the “Company”), a Nevada corporation, designs, manufactures, and installs carrier-class Wi-Fi Solutions in the 70 and 80 gigahertz licensed frequency program to local government, Mobile Service Operations, National Telecommunications Operators, and corporate enterprises. Wytec is also involved in the sale of wired and wireless services, including products, wireless data cards, back-office platform and rate plans to their commercial and enterprise clients and has been engaged in the sale of Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) registered links participating in the 70 and 80 gigahertz licensed frequency program (the “Program”). The Program allows qualified individuals to own a segment of the “backhaul” infrastructure of Wytec’s city-wide business deployment.
Basis of Accounting: The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company’s management in accordance with U. S. GAAP and applied on a consistent basis.
Revenue Recognition. Revenue is recognized by applying the following five steps: 1) identify the contract with a customer; 2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; 3) determine the transaction price; 4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; and 5) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy a performance obligation.
The Company earns revenues from contracts with customers for sales and installation of cellular enhancement equipment and support agreements. Revenue from the sale and installation of cellular enhancement equipment is recognized either when the installation is completed or as the Company installs the cellular enhancement equipment, depending on the complexity of the system, such as the degree of customization of the equipment being installed, and the agreement with the customer. Revenue from the installation of systems which management believes have an alternative use is recognized upon customer acceptance. This assessment, at contract inception, is based on the combination of equipment ordered, the services performed and whether or not material effort, within the context of the contract, would be required to rework the equipment for another project. For example, such contracts are usually completed within 30-45 days. In larger more complex projects where the Company is creating an asset for the customer with no alternative use and has an enforceable right to payment for performance prior to contract completion, we recognize revenue utilizing the percentage of completion method. This method measures completion based on management’s estimate of total costs to complete each contract because management considers total costs to be the best available measure of progress on the contract. During 2023 and 2022, all sales and installation revenue is recognized when the installation was completed.
Support agreements entered into with customers are generally for a period of one year, during which the Company stands ready to provide service and support for installed systems at the customer site. Support agreement amounts are billed in advance to the customer, as agreed in the contract, and recorded as a contract liability. During the period, the Company provides unspecified firmware upgrades to installed client equipment as they are available. Management estimates that straight line recognition of revenue over the period of the support agreement contract is representative of the pattern of delivery on the Company’s obligation under these agreements.
Sales tax is recorded on a net basis and excluded from revenue.
| 8 |
Inventory: Inventory is stated at the lower of cost and selling price less costs to complete and sell. Specific identification is used to track inventory and record cost of goods sold when the inventory is sold.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: The allowance
for doubtful accounts is evaluated on a regular basis through periodic reviews of the collectability of the receivables in light of historical
experience, adverse situations that may affect our customers' ability to repay, and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is
inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. Accounts
receivable are determined to be past due based on how recently payments have been received and those considered uncollectible are charged
against the allowance account in the period they are deemed uncollectible.
Operating Leases Right-of-use Assets and Operating Lease Obligations: If we determine that an arrangement is or contains a lease, we recognize a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease obligation at the commencement date of the lease. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease obligations represent our lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and obligations are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Stock Based Compensation: Stock-based compensation expense attributable to equity awards granted to employees and non-employees is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. For employee awards, the expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for awards that actually vest, which is generally the period from the grant date to the end of the vesting period. For non-employee awards, the expense for awards that actually vest is recognized based on when the goods or services are provided.
The fair value of the Company’s equity is approved by the Company’s Board of Directors as of the date stock-based awards are granted. In estimating the fair value of our stock, the Company uses a third-party valuation specialist and considers methodologies and factors it believes are material to the valuation process, including the prior transaction method and the discounted cash flow method of equity valuation. The Company believes the combination of these methodologies and factors provides an appropriate estimate of the expected fair value of the Company and reflects the best estimate of the fair value of the Company’s common stock at each grant date.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements: Effective as of January 1, 2022, the Company early adopted the provisions of ASU 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity). The modified retrospective adoption of the new accounting principle did not have a material effect on the financial statements. As a result of the adoption of this new accounting principle, the Company did not have to separate any embedded conversion feature in our newly issued convertible notes.
Effective January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASU 2021-04: Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt – Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) on a prospective basis. The new standard was issued in April 2021 with one aspect being the intent of standardizing the application of accounting for modification of warrants. The adoption of this ASU did not have material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2016-03: Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326). The new standard was issued in June 2016. The standard was issued with the intent of overhauling the processes of measuring credit losses on most financial assets carried at amortized costs, among others. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
| 9 |
NOTE B – GOING CONCERN
Our financial statements are prepared using accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets
and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred continuous losses from operations, have an accumulated
deficit of $
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our cash needs and/or to raise funds to finance ongoing operations and repay debt. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in our efforts to raise additional debt or equity capital and/or that our cash generated by our operations will be adequate to meet our needs. These factors, among others, indicate that we may be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. Management expects to continue to seek additional funding through private or public equity sources and will seek debt financing. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should it be unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE C – REVENUE AND ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with its accounting policy described in NOTE A – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. The Company invoices customers and recognizes accounts receivable in an amount it expects to receive from the customer. The Company has contracted payment terms with its customer of net 30 days. The Company recognized revenue from performance obligations satisfied as of a point in time and over time as disaggregated in the table below.

The Company earns revenues from Cel-fi systems

The Company’s contracts for support services are typically for terms of one year or less. The aggregate amount of contract performance obligation as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 that the Company expects to recognize over the next year is $6,934 and $2,835, respectively.
The Company is under no obligation and is not in the practice of providing customers with returns, rebates, discounts, or refunds. The Company, accordingly, does not recognize these obligations at the time of revenue recognition. The Company may receive future consideration from customers who enter into support agreements. Those services are delivered as of a point in time when the customer requests the service. Future consideration as described is excluded from the transaction price calculated for support agreement performance obligations.
The Company has applied the practical expedient that permits the Company to recognize revenue without regard to significant financing components based on the Company’s expectations about the transfer of services and the receipt of payment from customers. The effect of this practical expedient is not material to the Company’s financial statements.
NOTE D – PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

In February 2020, we issued a note in the amount
of $
In June 2022, we commenced an offering of up
to $25,000,000 of 9.5% secured convertible promissory notes (“Notes”) pursuant to a private placement in accordance with
Rule 506(c) of Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “2022 Offering”). The Notes together with all accrued and
unpaid interest will be payable on or before December 31 2023 and will be secured by a perfected recorded first priority security
interest in the Company’s LP-16 patent. If the Company’s common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Markets on or
before the maturity date, the outstanding Notes will automatically be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at a
rate equal to the price per share in the public offering. If the Notes have not otherwise been automatically converted into shares
of the Company’s common stock, the noteholders (“Noteholders”) will have the option, on or before the maturity
date, to convert all or a portion of their outstanding Notes into shares of the Company’s common stock at a rate equal to
$5.00 per share and, immediately upon the conversion, the converting Noteholders will be issued a number of new warrants from the
Company equal to the dollar amount of the conversion divided by $5.00 (the “Warrants”). The Warrants will be exercisable
until December 31, 2023 at an exercise price equal to the greater of (i) five dollars ($5.00) or (ii) eighty-five percent (85%) of
the 10-day moving average of the Company’s public trading price if the Company’s securities are trading on a public
securities trading market. The termination date of this offering was initially September 30. 2022, but it was extended pursuant to
the terms of the offering to January 28, 2023. As of March 31, 2023 the Company has issued a total of $
In October 2022, we entered into an exchange agreement (the “ERI Agreement”) with Eagle Rock Investments, L.L.C., a limited liability company of which a majority of the outstanding equity is owned by Christopher Stuart, a director of the Company (“ERI”), pursuant to which ERI exchanged $320,242 of promissory notes ($300,000 principal and $20,242 accrued but unpaid interest) for a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $320,242 (the “New ERI Note”) bearing interest at a rate of 9.5% per annum, due and payable on or before December 31, 2023. If Wytec’s common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Markets on or before the maturity date, the New ERI Note will automatically be converted into shares of Wytec’s common stock at a rate equal to the price per share in the public offering. If the New ERI Note has not otherwise been automatically converted into shares of Wytec’s common stock, ERI will have the option, on or before the maturity date, to convert all or a portion of the outstanding New ERI Note into shares of Wytec’s common stock at a rate equal to $5.00 per share and, immediately upon the conversion, ERI will be issued a number of new Warrants from Wytec equal to the dollar amount of the conversion divided by $5.00.
In October 2022, we entered into an exchange agreement (the “Stuart Agreement”) with Mr. Stuart pursuant to which Mr. Stuart exchanged $385,658 of promissory notes ($375,000 principal and $10,658 accrued but unpaid interest) for a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $385,658 (the “New Stuart Note”) bearing interest at a rate of 9.5% per annum, due and payable on or before December 31, 2023. If Wytec’s common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Markets on or before the maturity date, the New Stuart Note will automatically be converted into shares of Wytec’s common stock at a rate equal to the price per share in the public offering.

The Warrants will be exercisable until December 31, 2023 at an exercise price equal to the greater of (i) five dollars ($5.00) or (ii) eighty-five percent (85%) of the 10-day moving average of Wytec’s public trading price if Wytec’s securities are trading on a public securities trading market.

The Company repaid this note in July 2023 and the existing shareholder reinvested the principal and interest in the Company’s 2023 Offering.
In February 2023, we commenced an offering of up to $25,000,000 of 9.5% secured convertible promissory notes (“2023 Notes”) pursuant to a private placement in accordance with Rule 506(c) of Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “2023 Offering”). The 2023 Notes together with all accrued and unpaid interest will be payable on or before December 31, 2024 and will be secured by a perfected recorded first priority security interest in the Company’s LP-16 patent. If the Company’s common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Markets on or before the maturity date, the outstanding 2023 Notes will automatically be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at a rate equal to the price per share in the public offering. If the 2023 Notes have not otherwise been automatically converted into shares of the Company’s common stock, the noteholders (“2023 Noteholders”) will have the option, on or before the maturity date, to convert all or a portion of their outstanding 2023 Notes into shares of the Company’s common stock at a rate equal to $5.00 per share and, immediately upon the conversion, the converting 2023 Noteholders will be issued a number of new warrants from the Company equal to the dollar amount of the conversion divided by $5.00 (the “2023 Warrants”). The 2023 Warrants will be exercisable until December 31, 2024 at an exercise price equal to the greater of (i) five dollars ($5.00) or (ii) eighty-five percent (85%) of the 10-day moving average of the Company’s public trading price if the Company’s securities are trading on a public securities trading market. As of March 31, 2023, the Company has issued a total of $403,000 of 2023 Notes pursuant to this offering.

NOTE F – REPURCHASE AGREEMENT
In March 2020, we entered into a Repurchase
and General Release Agreement with one shareholder pursuant to which we promised to pay the amount of $200,000 due on December 31,
2020 in exchange for
shares of common stock and
shares of Series B Preferred Stock (which shares automatically converted into 40,000 shares of common stock in April 2022). The
agreement stated that the Company was to make $10,000 monthly installments with the balance payable on the maturity date. The
agreement contains a feature that allows the Company to extend the maturity date of the amount payable to March 31, 2021 in the
Company’s sole discretion, and if the Company exercises this option, the $10,000 monthly installments will continue until the
extended maturity date on which date the remaining balance will be due. During the quarter ended December 31, 2020, the Company
extended the maturity date under the terms of the agreement to March 31, 2021. The Company made payments in the amount of $80,000
during the period, however, the shareholder has not properly returned the shares so that they may be canceled. As the shares had not
been properly returned, the Company is not obligated, per the agreement, to pay any monies and the $80,000 was paid in good faith
that the shares would be returned. The Company is pursuing action against the shareholder to get the shares returned or get the
monies paid returned. Until such time, the $

NOTE H – WARRANTS
The Company has common stock purchase warrants
outstanding at March 31, 2023 to purchase
To calculate the fair value of stock warrants at the date of grant, we use the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The volatility used is based on historical volatilities of selected peer group companies. Management estimated the fair value of the underlying common stock by utilizing the discounted cash flow method and the prior transaction method approaches and determined a fair value of $5.00. Management estimates the average volatility considering current and future expected market conditions. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Each issuance is individually valued according to this procedure as of the date of issuance using calculated volatility estimates and the risk-free rate. No warrants were issued during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This report contains forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about Wytec International, Inc. (“Wytec,” “Company,” “us,” “we” or “our”), the industry in which we operate and other matters, as well as management's beliefs and assumptions and other statements regarding matters that are not historical facts.

For example, when we use words such as “projects,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “will,” “opportunity,” “potential” or “may,” and variations of such words or other words that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes, we are making forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties that may cause the Company’s actual results to be materially different from any future results expressed or implied by the Company in those statements. The most important factors that could prevent the Company from achieving its stated goals include, but are not limited to, the following:
| (a) | volatility or decline of our stock price; |
| (b) | potential fluctuation in quarterly results; |
| (c) | failure to earn revenues or profits; |
| (d) | inadequate capital to continue our business; |
| (e) | insufficient revenues to cover operating costs; |
| (f) | barriers to raising the additional capital or to obtaining the financing needed to implement our business plans; |
| (g) | dilution experienced by our shareholders in their ownership of the Company because of the issuance of additional securities by us, or the exercise of warrants or conversion of outstanding convertible securities; |
| (h) | inability to complete research and development of our technology with little or no current revenue; |
| (i) | lack of demand for our products and services; |
| (j) | loss of customers; |
| (k) | rapid and significant changes in markets; |
| (l) | technological innovations causing our technology to become obsolete; |
| (m) | increased competition from existing competitors and new entrants in the market; |
| (n) | litigation with or legal claims and allegations by outside parties; |
| (o) | inability to start or acquire new businesses, or lack of success of new businesses started or acquired by us, if any; |
| (p) | inability to effectively develop or commercialize our technology; and |
| (q) | inability to obtain patent or other protection for our proprietary intellectual property. |
Because the statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. We caution you not to place undue reliance on the statements, which speak only as of the date of this Form 10-Q. The cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section should be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that we or persons acting on our behalf may issue.
| 20 |
We do not undertake any obligation to review or confirm analysts’ expectations or estimates or to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 10-Q or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements and notes to those statements. In addition to historical information, the following discussion and other parts of this annual report contain forward-looking statements and information that involves risks and uncertainties.
Overview of Current Operations
Wytec is the developer of a technology called the “LPN-16,” consisting of chipsets, software, hardware designs and antennas that enable strengthened Wi-Fi and cellular transmission within a concentrated coverage area of approximately 1,000 feet in circumference. The hardware consists of a chassis or framework approximately 32 inches in height with a radius of approximately 32 inches. It is designed to be installed on a utility pole to private dense network coverage. The unit, referred to as an outdoor “small cell”, is designed to increase Wi-Fi and cellular capacity and signal strength by placing a large number of them in densely populated areas as compared to the traditional macro site cellular towers covering a much larger area of approximately two (2) miles. The growth of small cells is in response to delivering substantially greater speeds to smartphones and other smart devices in preparation for the next generation of cellular technology now referred to as 5G.
When Wytec was first founded, we obtained five (5) United States patents, all of which have expired, related to local multipoint distribution service (“LMDS”) originally designed for digital television transmission, and later discovered to be useful in wireless broadband technology. In December 2017, we were granted a patent for our proprietary LPN-16 data transmission technology and in December 2020, we were granted a second patent, which is an expansion to our original 2017 patent. Today Wytec utilizes Millimeter and Microwave spectrum as a wireless point to point backhaul for transmitting to its LPN-16 small cell technology. This configuration has been tested in San Antonio, Texas and we believe it is a key component of Wytec’s 5G initiatives desired by large commercial buildings, school districts, and municipalities. Wytec’s current network configuration includes the development of Private LTE technology to be utilized for private network access allowing only authorized users to utilize the network.
We expect 5G to have a transformative impact on the economy and we believe that the 5G network will rely substantially on small cell technology to facilitate this impact.
We believe the LPN-16 small cell can solve many of the long-term challenges faced by operators deploying small cells who need access to backhaul, lower total cost of ownership and easier site acquisition and access. It can also assist cities wrestling with the on-going technology upgrades, network growth demands, political hurdles and new business models needed to realize the benefits of a 5G network. In addition to aligning with technical and governmental issues, the LPN-16 is designed to meet the standards for 5G deployment and, for operator needs, adheres to the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) policy initiatives addressing public safety and First Responder initiatives. Specifically, the FCC’s Report and Order 14-153, Acceleration of Broadband Deployment by Improving Wireless Facilities Siting Policies, adopts rules to help spur wireless broadband deployment by facilitating the sharing of wireless transmission equipment using “neutral host” functionality to simultaneously support multiple providers. The LPN-16 was specifically designed to support neutral host features and performance. The FCC’s goal of “shared used” and “neutral host” seeks to expand coverage and capacity more quickly, reduce costs and promote access to infrastructure which reduces barriers to deployment and incentivize the sharing of resources, rather than relying on new builds for every stakeholder, thereby safeguarding environmental, aesthetic, historic and local land-use values.
We have implemented an aggressive intellectual property strategy and continue to pursue patent protection for new innovations. In addition to the LPN-16 invention covered by our current patent, we have identified additional upgrades and additions to the LPN-16 which further tie it to the goals and timelines of Wytec’s 5G development business model, FCC policy initiatives and customer business usage which we believe could lead to additional patentable property. We intend to file for patent protection on these developments. Our strategy is to continually monitor the costs and benefits of our patent applications and pursue those that will best protect our business and expand the core value of the Company.
We have recruited and hired a seasoned management team with both private and public company experience and relevant technical and industry experience to develop and execute our operating plan. In addition, we have identified key engineering resources for intellectual property development, antenna development, hardware, software, and firmware engineering, as well as integration and testing that will allow us to continue to expand our technology and intellectual property.

Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations, including the discussion on liquidity and capital resources, are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, management re-evaluates its estimates and judgments, particularly those related to the determination of the estimated recoverable amounts of trade accounts receivable, impairment of long-lived assets, revenue recognition and deferred tax assets. We believe the following critical accounting policies require more significant judgment and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements.
Revenue Recognition. Wytec International, Inc. follows the revenue standards of Financial Accounting Standards Board Update No. 2014-09: “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” The core principle of the revenue model is that revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of a good or service. A customer obtains control when it has the ability to direct the use of and obtain the benefits from the good or service. Revenue is recognized in accordance with that core principle by applying the following five steps: 1) identify the contract with a customer; 2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; 3) determine the transaction price; 4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; and 5) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy a performance obligation.
Our contracts for the sale of Cel-Fi systems generally include the performance obligation to sell and install (including testing, commissioning and integration services) equipment. The performance obligation is deemed satisfied once the equipment has been installed, placed in service and customer signs off on their acceptance, at a point in time.
Network service revenues are recognized each month as services are rendered.
The Company generally provides a one-year warranty on its products for materials and workmanship but may provide multiple year warranties as negotiated, and will pass on the warranties from its vendors, if any, which generally covers this one-year period. In accordance with ASC 450-20-25, the Company accrues for product warranties when the loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. At March 31, 2023, the Company has estimated no product warranty accrual given the Company’s de minimis historical financial warranty experience.
Revenue is recorded and recognized when installation is complete. Maintenance and monitoring rates are pre-set based upon the building’s square footage. Cost of sales includes all equipment and labor that is connected to a project and all other costs are general and administrative. Laredo Independent School District projects are subject to contracted rates.
Warrants: The Company estimates and applies its judgement when determining the inputs to the Black Scholes calculation that is used to calculate the expense for the warrants issued. The volatility used is based on historical volatilities of selected peer group companies. Management estimated the fair value of the underlying common stock by utilizing the discounted cash flow method and prior transaction method approaches. Management estimates the average volatility considering current and future expected market conditions. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Each issuance is individually valued according to this procedure as of the date of issuance.
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 and 2022
Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was $20,409 and $204,045, respectively. This decrease in revenue of $183,636 or 90% was primarily due to decreases in revenue from our Cel-Fi systems.
Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was $7,515 and $177,590, respectively. This decrease of $170,075, or 96%, is due to the decrease in costs incurred related to the sales of our Cel-fi systems.
General and administrative expenses were $316,816 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $475,253 for the three months ended March 31, 2022; this resulted in a decrease of $158,437 or 33% compared to the same period in 2022. Contributing factors to the decrease include a decrease in professional fees of $157,490 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022.
We estimate that we will need approximately $4,400,000 of capital or financing over the next twelve months to fund our planned operations, which we plan to satisfy as described below under “Satisfaction of our Cash Needs for the Next 12 Months.”
| 22 |
We anticipate that we will incur operating losses in the next twelve months. Our revenue is not expected to exceed our investment and operating costs in the next twelve months. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of operations. To address these risks, we must, among other things, seek growth opportunities through investment and acquisitions, implement and successfully execute our business strategy, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. We cannot assure that we will be successful in, addressing such risks, and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
Cash Flow from Operating Activities
Cash flows used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 were $370,665 compared to $260,005 during the three months ended March 31, 2022. This decrease of $110,660 was primarily due to changes in net loss during the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022.
Cash Flow from Investing Activities
Cash flows used by investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 were $-0- compared to the cash flows used by investing activities of $847 during the three months ended March 31, 2022. Capital expenditures totaled $-0- and $847 during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, respectively.
Cash Flow from Financing Activities
Cash flows provided by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 were $532,618 compared to $332,594 during the three months ended March 31, 2022. These receipts represent proceeds from the sale of shares of the Company’s common stock and common stock purchase warrants, and the issuance of debt.
Satisfaction of Our Cash Obligations for the Next 12 Months.
As of March 31, 2023, our cash balance was $255,701. Our plan for satisfying our cash requirements for the next twelve months is through sales-generated income, private placements of our capital stock and convertible debt, third party financing, an initial public offering, and/or traditional bank financing. There is no assurance that we will be able to meet our working capital requirements through the private placement of equity or debt or from any other source.
Other Payable
During 2019, $895,000 of deferred revenue, related to amounts billed and collected before services related to registered links and related equipment and services (“Links”) previously sold by the Company had been completed, was reclassified to other payable due to the Company exiting the business of installing Links. Since that time, a total of $560,000 of the amount was exchanged for a total of 119,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, leaving a balance of $335,000 at March 31, 2023. The Company intends to relieve the remaining liability through a combination of exchanges for common and preferred stock and cash.
Going Concern
Our financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred continuous losses from operations, have an accumulated deficit of $28,159,732 at March 31, 2023, and have reported negative cash flows from operations. In addition, we do not currently have the cash resources to meet our operating commitments for the next twelve months from the date of this report. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, and complications frequently encountered by entrance into established markets and the competitive nature in which we operate.
| 23 |
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our cash needs and/or to raise funds to finance ongoing operations and repay debt. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in our efforts to raise additional debt or equity capital and/or that our cash generated by our operations will be adequate to meet our needs. These factors, among others, indicate that we may be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
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 that are material to investors.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
We have reviewed the standards issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) through March 31, 2023 and which are not yet effective. Unless otherwise discussed, the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations upon adoption. The Company has considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe the adoption of such pronouncement will have a material impact on its financial statements.
Effective as of January 1, 2022, the Company early adopted the provisions of ASU 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity). The modified retrospective adoption of the new accounting principle did not have a material effect on the financial statements. As a result of the adoption of this new accounting principle, the Company did not have to evaluate newly issued debt with conversion features.
Effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2016-03: Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326). The new standard was issued in June 2016. The standard was issued with the intent of overhauling the processes of measuring credit losses on most financial assets carried at amortized costs, among others. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk.
Not Applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15I under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to us required to be included in our periodic SEC filings and in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The conclusion that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective was due to the presence of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. Management anticipates that such disclosure controls and procedures will not be effective until the material weaknesses are remediated.
| 24 |
Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. To address the material weaknesses, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures in an effort to ensure our financial statements included in this quarterly report have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2023, Robert Cook resigned as a board member and as a member and the chairman of the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors.
During the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023, Gary Stein was appointed as the chairman of the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors.
