Note 1 - Company Organization and Description

 

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. The unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes included in the Company’s April 30, 20152016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.10-K/A. The results of operations for the sixthree months ended OctoberJuly 31, 20152016 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

 

Biosynergy, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Illinois on February 9, 1976. It is primarily engaged in the development and marketing of medical, consumer and industrial thermometric and thermographic products that utilize cholesteric liquid crystals. The Company’s primary product, the HemoTemp II Blood Monitoring Device, accounted for approximately 88.7%90.16% of the sales during the quarter ending OctoberJuly 31, 20152016 and 89.72%90.85% during the six month periodquarter ending OctoberJuly 31, 2015. The products are sold to hospitals, clinical end-users, laboratories and product dealers located throughout the United States.

 

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Cash

 

The Company maintains all of its cash in various bank deposit accounts, which at times may exceed federally insured limits. No losses have been experienced on such accounts.

 

Receivables

 

Receivables are carried at original invoice less estimates made for doubtful receivables. Management determines the allowances for doubtful accounts by reviewing and identifying troubled accounts on a periodic basis and by using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts. A receivable is considered to be past due if any portion of the receivable balance is outstanding for more than 30 days. Receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market using the FIFO (first-in, first-out) method.

 

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Depreciation and Amortization

 

Equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred; renewals and betterments which significantly extend the useful lives of existing equipment are capitalized. Significant leasehold improvements are capitalized and amortized over the term of the lease; equipment is depreciated over three to ten years. Depreciation expense was $4,201$2,099 and $6,306$2,166 for the sixthree month periodperiods ending OctoberJuly 31, 20152016 and 2014,2015, respectively.

 

Prepaid Expenses

 

Certain expenses, primarily insurance and income taxes, have been prepaid and will be used within one year.

  

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes net sales revenue upon the shipment of product to customers.

 

Research and Development and Patents

 

Research and development expenditures are charged to operations as incurred. The costs of obtaining patents, primarily legal fees, are capitalized and once obtained, amortized over the life of the respective patent on the straight-line method.

 

Patent amortization expense for the sixthree months ended OctoberJuly 31, 2016 and 2015 and 2014 was $4,342 and $1,618, respectively.$2,171. Patents relate to products that have been developed and by the Company. Patents pending relate to products under development.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

 

Income Per Common Share

 

Income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. When dilutive, stock options are included as share equivalents using the treasury stock method in the calculation of diluted earnings per share. The Company has no outstanding options or other rights to acquire its unissued common shares.

 

Comprehensive Income

 

Components of comprehensive income include amounts that are included in the comprehensive income but are excluded from net income. During the quarter endings and sixthree month periods ending OctoberJuly 31, 20152016 and 2014,2015, there were no differences between the Company’s net income and comprehensive income.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due and deferred taxes related primarily to differences in the methods of accounting for patents, inventories, certain accrued expenses and bad debt expenses for financial and income tax reporting purposes. The deferred income taxes represent the future tax consequences of those differences, which will be taxable in the future.

 

The Company files tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and with the state of Illinois. Various tax years remain open to examinations generally for three years after filed, although there are currently no ongoing tax examinations. Management’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

 

The (benefit) provision for income taxes consists of the following components for the six monthsthree month periods ended OctoberJuly 31:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The FASB issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in Accounting Standards Certification (ASC). There have been a number of ASUs to date that amend the original text of ASCs. Those ASUs issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to the Company or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company.

On February 25, 2016, the FASB issued Topic 842, its highly-anticipated leasing standard for both lessees and lessors. Under its core principle, a lessee will recognize lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for all arrangements with terms longer than 12 months. Lessor accounting remains largely consistent with existing U.S. GAAP. The amendments are effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. At inception, a lessee must classify all leases as either finance or operating. The Company intends to adopt Topic 842 upon extension of the current lease for its facilities in Elk Grove Village or upon entering into a new lease agreement for alternative facilities on or about May 1, 2018. The Company is investigating the effect of adoption of Topic 842 on its results of operations and financial condition. However, it is not anticipated that adoption of Topic 842 will have a material impact on the results of operations or financial condition of the Company.

 

In May 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2015-09), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2015-09 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. ASU 2015-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP.

 

The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2015-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2015-09 on our consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard as of May 1, 2018.

The financial condition of the Company and results of operations may differ from the estimates and assumptions made by management in preparation of the Financial Statements accompanying this report.
