NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

 

Nemaura Medical Inc. (“Nemaura” or the “Company”), through its operating subsidiaries, performs medical device research and manufacturing of a continuous glucose monitoring system (“CGM”), named sugarBEAT™..sugarBEAT®. The sugarBEAT™. sugarBEAT® device is a non-invasive, wireless device for use by persons with Type I and Type II diabetes and may also be used to screen pre-diabetic patients. The sugarBEAT™.sugarBEAT® device extracts analytes, such as glucose, to the surface of the skin in a non-invasive manner where it is measured using unique sensors and interpreted using a unique algorithm.

Nemaura is a Nevada holding company organized in 2013. Nemaura owns 100% of Region Green Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation (“RGL”) formed on December 12, 2013. RGL owns 100% of the stock in Dermal Diagnostic (Holdings) Limited, an England and Wales corporation (“DDHL”) formed on December 11, 2013, which in turn owns 100% of Dermal Diagnostics Limited, an England and Wales corporation formed on January 20, 2009 (“DDL”), and 100% of Trial Clinic Limited, an England and Wales corporation formed on January 12, 2011 (“TCL”).

DDL is a diagnostic medical device company headquartered in Loughborough, Leicestershire, England, and is engaged in the discovery, development, and commercialization of diagnostic medical devices. The Company’s initial focus has been on the development of the sugarBEAT™.device,sugarBEAT® device, which consists of a disposable patch containing a sensor, and a non-disposable miniature wireless transmitter with a re-chargeable power source, which is designed to enable trending or tracking of blood glucose levels. All ofWhile the Company’s key operations and assets are located in England.England, the Company has recently commenced commercial operations in the United States.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021, the Board of Directors assessed the adequacy of the group’s organizational structure and concluded that the intermediate holding company that sat below Nemaura Medical Inc., Region Green Limited (a British Virgin Islands corporation), was no longer required as the entity had been effectively dormant since inception and no longer represented a requirement to be maintained. It was therefore determined that Region Green Limited should be unwound, with the intention that the assets held by Region Green Limited be transferred up to Nemaura Medical Inc. following which Region Green Limited would be dissolved.

The transfer of assets took place on March 5, 2021 and Region Green Limited was formally dissolved as of April 23, 2021.

The following diagram illustrates Nemaura’s corporate structure as of September 30, 2020:2021:

The Company was incorporated in 2013 and has reported recurring losses from operations to date and an accumulated deficit of $20,267,348$30,682,660 as of September 30, 2020.2021. These operations have resulted in the successful completion of clinical programs to support a CE mark (European Union approval of the product) approval, as well asand a De Novo 510(k) medical device applicationPre-Market Application (“PMA”) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for sugarBEAT® is currently under review.

The Company expects to continue to incur losses from operations until revenues are generated through licensing fees or product sales. However, given the completion of the requisite clinical programs, these losses are expected to be reduceddecrease over time. Management has entered into licensing, supply, or collaboration agreements with unrelated third parties relating to the United Kingdom (“UK”), Europe, Qatar, and all countries in the Gulf Cooperation Council.

 

Management has evaluatedGoing Concern Considerations

In accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, the expectedongoing loss making position of the Company is considered to demonstrate an adverse condition that raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management’s plans to alleviate the substantial doubt raised as a consequence thereof includes their ability to adjust the timing and quantum of future operational expenses, to be incurred along with its available cashrevise the loan repayment terms currently in place, and has determined/ or pursue additional capital raising opportunities.

Based on this, it is management’s assessment that the Company has alleviated the risk above and has the ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year subsequent to the date of issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company has an $8 million unsecured senior credit facility made available from certain major stockholders on August 1, 2019. The credit facility is non-dilutive carrying 8% interest with quarterly interest payments only and the principal being due on maturity in 5 years. No draw down has been made to date.

 

On April 15, 2020,Following the Company entered into a note purchase agreement resultingreceipt of the CE mark approval in cash proceeds of $4,675,000; as set outthe EU, and in Note 6. The Company has $16,948,939 cash at September 30, 2020. The Company believes the cash position as of September 30, 2020, plus the credit facility made available from certain major stockholders, is adequate for our current level of operations through at least November 2021, and for the achievement of certainsupport of our product development milestones. Ourplans for similar certification with the FDA in the U.S., our plan is to utilize the cash plus loan draw down if required,on hand to continue establishing commercial manufacturing operations for the commercial supply of the sugarBEAT™.devicesugarBEAT® device and sensor patches now that CE mark approval has been received.in our target markets.

Management's strategic plans include the following:

support the UK and EU launch of sugarBEAT®;
obtaining further regulatory approval for the sugarBEAT® device in other countries such as the U.S.;
exploring licensing and partnership opportunities in other territories;
developing the sugarBEAT® device platform for commercialization across other applications; and
pursue additional capital raising opportunities as required to accelerate and support the future development of the business.

 

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. However, such information reflects all adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the financial condition and results of operations for the interim periods. The results for the three months and six months ended September 30, 20202021 are not indicative of annual results. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. It is suggested that these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2020,2021, as filed with the SEC.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the Company’s subsidiaries. References to “we”, “us”, “our”, or the “Company” refer to Nemaura Medical Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and all significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The functional currency for the majority of the Company’s operations is the Great Britain Pound Sterling (“GBP”), and the reporting currency is the U.S. Dollar (“USD”).

(b)Changes to significant accounting policies

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivative financial instruments are used as part of the overall strategy to manage exposure to foreign currency primarily associated with fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Derivative financial instruments are included in the consolidated balance sheets and are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-02, Leases, as of April 1, 2020 andis exposed to the impact of adoptionforeign currency exchange fluctuations as a significant proportion of our expenses are incurred within our UK subsidiary which is denominated GBP, with the remaining portion denominated in USD and a small amount in Euros (“EUR”). In addition to this ASUwe hold the majority of our cash in USD, with amounts also held in GBP and, to a much smaller amount, in EURs. The Company’s objective is to reduce the volatility associated with these foreign exchange rate changes to allow management to focus our attention on our core business strategy and objectives. Accordingly, the Company entered into a target accrual redemption forward contract (“TARF”) agreement to sell USD and buy GBP across 25 defined monthly fixings in order to fix the costs associated with the foreign currency exchange fluctuations associated with our GBP denominated expenses. These fixings allow for $250,000 to be converted into GBP at a rate of $1.369 subject to the spot rate on the fixing date being above the fixed rate. Should the spot rate fall below $1.369 on the scheduled fixing date, the Company is obligated to convert $500,000 to GBP at the fixed rate. The exchange rate range experienced by the Company over the last two years for USD: GBP has seen a high of approximately $1.163 in March 2020 and a low of approximately $1.423 in June 2021. Cumulative profit on the sale of USD is capped at an aggregate of approximately $55,000 over the shorter of the life of the contract fixings or the utilization of the cap.

At September 30, 2021, the Company held a forward contract to sell up to $11 million, which when remeasured at fair value generated a non-cash item loss of $270,400 which has been accounted for within General and administrative expenses and on balance sheet within Other liabilities and accrued expenses. No such similar derivative financial instruments were in place at the fiscal periods ending March 31, 2021 or September 30, 2020.

There have been no other material changes to our significant accounting policies from those detailed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2020,2021, as filed with the SEC.SEC on June 29, 2021.

(c) Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

The Company continually assesses any new accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability. When it is determined that a new accounting pronouncement affects the Company's financial reporting, the Company undertakes a study to determine the consequences of the change to its consolidated financial statements and assures that there are proper controls in place to ascertain that the Company's consolidated financial statements properly reflect the change.

In March 2014, the Company entered into an Exclusive Marketing Rights Agreement (the “Marketing Rights Agreement”) with an unrelated third party (the “Licensee”), that granted to the Licensee the exclusive right to market and promote the sugarBEAT™.devicesugarBEAT® device and related patches under its own brand in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland, the Channel Islands, and the Isle of Man. The Company received a non-refundable, up-front cash payment of GBP 1,000,000 (approximately $1.292(approximately $1.35 million and $1.240 $1.38 million as of September 30, 20202021 and March 31, 2020,2021, respectively), which is wholly non-refundable, upon signing the agreement.

The Company is in ongoing dialogue with the Licensee about the timing of its plans with respect to its product launch.

The upfront feespayment received from this agreement havethe Marketing Rights Agreement has been deferred and will be recorded as income over the term of the commercial licensing agreement.Marketing Rights Agreement. Consequently, approximately $97,000 and $93,000 $124,000 of the $624,000 deferred revenue has beenbalance classified as a current liability as of September 30, 2020 and2021 relates to this upfront payment ($103,000 as at March 31, 2020, respectively.2021).

The Company received an initial order in April 2021 from the Licensee, against which the Company expects to commence delivery in November 2021. Under the terms of the contact, the Company was able to issue a “deposit” invoice to cover costs for purchases directly incurred in order to service orders made by the Licensee, as such an invoice was raised with a net value of approximately $0.5 million. As at September 30, 2021, this invoice has been treated as deferred revenue within current liabilities with the debit balance being captured within other receivables, the cash payment for which was received on October 1, 2021 and so no recognition has been made for this during fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2021.

(a) COVID-19 Pandemic

 

The outbreak of COVID-19 originating in Wuhan, China, in December 2019 has since rapidly increased its exposure globally. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak a pandemic. We continue to monitor the global outbreakimpact of COVID-19 on our own operations and are working with our customers, employees, suppliers and other stakeholders to mitigate the risks posed by its spread, COVID-19 is not expected to have any long-term detrimental effect on the Company’s success. While key suppliers have not been accessible throughout the whole period of the outbreak, we have been able to be flexible in our priorities and respond favorably to the challenges faced during the outbreak. We have also seen a surge in the uptake of technologies for remote monitoring of patients and patient self-monitoring, which therefore potentially enhances the prospects for the likes of the Company, and its CGM product and its planned digital healthcare offering.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements. The matters discussed in these forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those made, projected, or implied in the forward-looking statements. See "Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements" below, and "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as the same may be updated from time to time, for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these statements.

Overview

 

We are a medical technology company developing sugarBEAT™.sugarBEAT®, a non-invasive, affordable, and flexible continuous glucose monitoring system for adjunctive use by persons with diabetes. sugarBEAT™.consistssugarBEAT® consists of a disposable adhesive skin-patch connected to a rechargeable wireless transmitter that displays glucose readings at regular five minute intervals via a mobile app. sugarBEAT™.sugarBEAT® works by extracting glucose from the skin into a chamber in the patch that is in direct contact with an electrode-based sensor. The transmitter sends the raw data to a mobile app where it is processed by an algorithm and displayed as a glucose reading, with the ability to track and trend the data over days, weeks, and months. While sugarBEAT™.requiressugarBEAT® requires once per day calibration by the patient using a blood sample obtained by a finger stick, we believe sugarBEAT™.willsugarBEAT® will be adopted by non-insulin dependent persons with diabetes alongside insulin-injecting persons with diabetes, who all perform multiple daily finger sticks to manage their disease.

 

CE approval was granted by the European Notified Body BSI in May 2019, allowing the product to be made available for commercial sale. Thesale, this approval is subject to an annual review of the underlying ISO 13485 accredited Quality Management System, the accreditation was successfully renewed during November 2020. In conjunction with the UK Licensee, the Company commenced a phase 1 launch whereby devices were made available to limited cohorts of users to gauge their feedback so that any fine-tuning could be completed prior to a mass market launch. A mass-market launch is due to commenceThe UK Licensee has also confirmed that they will undertake two Key Opinion Leader (“KOL”) studies in the UK infor their white-labelled service offering that is supported by sugarBEAT®. The KOL studies are expected to conclude by the coming months via itsend of the current fiscal year with a view to providing further support for their broader ongoing marketing plans.

The UK licensee DB Ethitronix, whereby sugarBEAT™.will be available viaLicensee placed an initial order for sugarBEAT® at the end of April 2021 and provided a number of subscription models that are yetforecast for their post-launch volume expectations which the Company has used to be determined. establish both a short and medium term view to inform our commercial operational requirements. In line with this view the Company has taken the following actions during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2021:

·Entered into a new leased facility to provide the additional space requirements for commercial product assembly.
·Increased headcount of production operatives; this will be phased in line with the volume forecasts currently available, however the Company has also factored in an ability to scale further and faster should this be required.
·Moved forward with placing phased orders for raw materials to ensure future product availability to support both our UK Licensee while also providing for capacity to flex up further as other routes to market materialise in line with management’s commercialization program.

In July 2020, Nemaura filed a PMA application with the FDA to use sugarBEAT™.sugarBEAT® as an adjunct to finger prick testing for blood glucose trending. We, along with other applicants, were then informed by the FDA that the approval process was currently subject to delays as a result of the FDA’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health (“CDRH”) being actively engaged in responding to the current pandemic caused by COVID-19 which resulted in staff being reallocated to other approval requests associated with COVID-19. During April 2021 the FDA confirmed that they would recommence their review of the PMA application and this is now ongoing and in-progress.

In addition it has been pursuing the possibility of launching sugarBEAT™.under the FDA Wellness guidance which would preclude it from an FDA assessment and allow the product to be launched in the U.S. for Wellness use, to provide prompts and educate users on factors affecting their blood sugar profiles. Further to discussions with the FDAthis, Nemaura established that sugarBEAT™.canproBEATTM, which is based on the sugarBEAT® platform, can be classified under the Wellness guidance when it is used according to the FDA Wellness guidance notes.notes, to provide prompts and educate users on factors affecting their blood sugar profiles. Nemaura plans to launch thislaunched proBEAT™ in the U.S. under the brand proBEAT™.in December 2020, as part of a diabetes prevention and reversal program branded BEATdiabetes.life. During the quarter ended September 30,December 31, 2020, Nemaura licensed a clinically validated weight loss program for the management of diabetes from Healthimation, LLC, which was originally developed at the Joslin Diabetes Center, an affiliate of Harvard Medical School. This program, together with proBEAT™.proBEATTM, forms the BEATdiabetes.life program that is plannedcurrently being developed for launchcommercialization in the U.S.United States. KOL studies are being conducted to provide further marketing support of the program in December 2020, aimed atpreparation for a broader US-wide roll-out. While still in the management or reversal of Type 2 diabetes.relatively early stages, we are pleased with initial results and feedback received from these user-groups.

We believe there are additional applications for sugarBEAT™.andsugarBEAT® and the underlying BEAT technology platform, which may include:

 

·a web-server accessible by physicians and diabetes professionals to track the condition remotely, thereby reducing healthcare costs and managing the condition more effectively;
·a complete virtual doctor that monitors a person's vital signs and transmits results via the web;
·other patches using the BEAT technology platform to measure alternative analytes, including lactate, uric acid, lithium and drugs. This would be a step-change in the monitoring of conditions, particularly in the hospital setting. Lactate monitoring is currently used to determine the relative fitness of professional athletes and we completed preliminary studies demonstrating the application of the BEAT technology for continuous lactate monitoring;
·a continuous temperature monitoring system which could have various applications, including use for individuals to monitor their temperature in connection with diagnosis and monitoring of symptoms of novel coronavirus (COVID-19);
·monitoring disease progression in COVID-19 patients using continuous lactate monitoring (CLM).

 

TheDuring this period of product development, the Company has experienced recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. AtAs of September 30, 2020,2021, the Company had cash balances of $16,948,939,$26,768,196, working capital of $14,833,369,$12,543,021, total stockholders' equity of $11,242,427$4,365,984 and an accumulated deficit of $20,267,348. To date, the Company has in large part relied on equity financing to fund its operations. Additional funding has come from related party contributions.$30,682,660. The Company expects to continue to incur losses from operations for the near-term and these losses could be significant as product development, regulatory activities, clinical trials, and other commercial and product development related expenses are incurred.

 

16 

Management's strategic assessment includescontinues to include the following potential options:

 

·obtaining further regulatory approval for the sugarBEAT™.devicesugarBEAT® device in other countries, such as the U.S.;United States;
·pursuing further capital raising opportunities;opportunities to support and accelerate the commercialization strategy;
·exploring licensing and collaboration opportunities; and
·developing the sugarBEAT™.devicesugarBEAT® device platform for commercialization for other applications.

 

Recent Developments

On September 24, 2021, the Company entered into a Licence, Supply and Distribution Agreement, dated as of September 17, 2021, with MySugarWatch Duopack Limited (“MSW”). Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the Company appointed MSW as its exclusive global licensee and distributor with regard to the Company’s sugarBEAT® non-invasive continuous glucose monitor devices and sensors (the “Products”), to be provided solely as duo-packs with prescription only medicines that are widely prescribed for Type 2 diabetes (each, a “Combination Pack”).

Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the Company agreed to supply the Products in accordance with the terms of the agreement, and MSW agreed to purchase Products for its own account for resale.

The agreement has an initial term of 10 years, subject to earlier termination pursuant to the terms of the agreement. Either party may terminate the agreement at the end of the initial term upon 12 months’ notice. If such notice is not provided, the agreement will automatically continue after the initial 10-year term until terminated by either party giving at least 12 months' prior written notice.

Results of Operations

 

Comparative Results for the Six Months Ended September 30, 20202021 and 20192020

 

Revenue

 

There was no revenue recognized in the six monthsmonth period ended September 30, 20202021 and 2019. In 2014,2020.

The Company received its first order from our UK Licensee to support product sales in the UK, as part of a broader diabetes management service. Delivery of goods against this initial order is planned to commence in November 2021 and therefore, we received anexpect that revenue recognition will commence in the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2021.

The upfront non-refundable cash payment of GBP 1 million (approximately $1.292$1.35 million and $1.240$1.38 million as of September 30, 20202021 and March 31, 2020,2021, respectively) that was received in connection with anthe Exclusive Marketing Rights Agreement that was previously signed with an unrelated third party that provides the third party the exclusive rightUK Licensee continues to market and promote the sugarBEAT™.device and related patch under its own brand in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland. We havebe deferred this licensing revenue until sales are due to commence, andcommence; we expect to record thethis revenue as income over an approximately 10-year term from the date sales commence. Although the revenue is treated as deferred at September 30, 2020,2021, the cash payment became immediately available and has beenwas used to fund our operations including research and development costs associated with successfully obtaining the CE mark approval.to enable us to reach our current position.

Research and Development Expenses

 

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses were $771,592$575,370 and $1,018,699$771,592 for the six months ended September 30, 20202021 and 2019,2020, respectively. This amount consisted primarily of expenditures on wages and sub-contractor activities incurred for improvements made to the sugarBEAT™.sugarBEAT® device. The decrease of $247,107$196,222 is due tolargely driven by a decreasereduction in thesesub-contractor costs as the sugarBEAT™.product is nearingsugarBEAT® product moves to commercial launch. Moving forward, we anticipate that the cost reductions seen in this area will continue as we see a re-balancing across general and administrative expenses driven by the commercial operations of the business becoming more relevant, although we expect to continue to incur R&D expenses as new pipeline products are moved through their respective development phases.

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses were $1,367,253$2,760,102 and $1,353,532$1,367,253 for the six months ended September 30, 20202021 and 2019,2020, respectively. These consisted of fees for legal, professional, consultancy, audit services, investor relations, insurance, advertising and wages. The increase in expenses was driven predominantly by increased wages as additional headcount has been added to support the operational scale up process across both our UK and US teams. Increases have also been seen in insurance and advertising costs which are considered to be directly related to the commercialization steps taken during the period. In addition to this, a non-cash item charge of $270,400 was booked as a result of the Mark-To-Market impact from the revaluation of the foreign currency forward contracts in place as at the fiscal period end.

We expectanticipate that general and administrative expenses will continue to remain at similar levels goingincrease moving forward, as we anticipatethe business transitions to a more operational focused base that most of these costs will needencompass an increase in functions expenses associated with sales, marketing, customer service, as well as enhancements to be incurred for the day to day running of the Company.other existing functions.

 

17 

Other Comprehensive Loss

 

For the six months ended September 30, 20202021 and 2019,2020, other comprehensive loss was $117,857 and $14,510, respectively. Currently all transactions recorded through other comprehensive loss arise from fluctuations in the USD:GBP exchange rate and $23,152, respectively, arising from foreign currency translation adjustments.the impact that this has on consolidation of the Company’s non-USD denominated assets and liabilities.

 

Comparative Results for the Three Months Ended September 30, 20202021 and 20192020

 

Revenue

 

As noted above, the business is currently pre-revenue. As such, no revenue was recognized in the three monthsmonth period ended September 30, 20202021 and 2019.2020.

Research and Development Expenses

 

Research and developmentR&D expenses were $456,280$286,886 and $462,517$456,280 for the three month periods ended September 30, 20202021 and 2019,2020, respectively. This continues to be largely composed of expenditure on wages and sub-contractor activities incurred in finalizing the product design for the sugarBEAT™.devicesugarBEATTM device in order to enable scaling of the production ability.ability combined with costs associated with new pipeline products as they move through their respective development phases.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses were $771,533$1,427,917 and $654,523$771,533 for the three month periods ended September 30, 20202021 and 2019,2020, respectively. Given the nature of the Company’s activities has remained unchanged, the cost drivers in this area have also remained consistent and are largely representative of fees for legal, professional, consultancy, audit services, investor relations, insurance and wages. The increase in expenses was driven predominantly by increased wages as additional headcount has been added to support the operational scale up process across both our UK and US teams. Increases have also been seen in insurance and advertising costs which are considered to be directly related to the commercialization steps taken during the period. In addition to this a non-cash item charge of $207,332 was booked for the Mark-To-Market revaluation of the foreign currency forward contracts in place at the fiscal period end.

We expectanticipate that general and administrative expenses will continue to remain at similar levels goingincrease moving forward, as we anticipatethe business transitions to a more operational focused base that most of these costs will needencompass an increase in functions expenses associated with sales, marketing, customer service, as well as enhancements to be incurred for the day to day running of the Company.other existing functions.

 

Other Comprehensive Loss

 

For the three months ended September 30, 20202021 and 2019,2020, other comprehensive loss was $19,333$107,151 and $7,401,$19,333, respectively, arising from foreign currency translation adjustments.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We have experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception. We have sustained cumulative losses of $20,267,348$30,682,660 through September 30, 2020.2021. We have historically financed our operations through the issuances of equity and contributions of services from related entities. While no shares were issued during the six month period ended September 30, 2021, warrants to purchase 366,892 shares of common stock were exercised during, all of which were exercised during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2021, which provided $2,963,658 of additional funding.

 

AtAs of September 30, 2020,2021, the Company had net working capital of $14,833,369$12,543,021, which included cash balances of $16,948,939.$26,768,196.

This loss is after taking account of interest and debt accretion charges arising from the note purchase agreements for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2021 of $1,779,462 and $3,502,517, respectively.

 

We have completed clinical studies required for FDA submission and in July 2020, we submitted an application to the FDA for approval of the device. Therefore we expect that research and development costs for glucose monitoring will be reduced. The Company had an $8 million unsecured senior credit facility made available from certain major stockholders on August 1, 2019. No draw down has been made to date.

On April 15, 2020, the Company entered into a note purchase agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) with Chicago Venture Partners, L.P. (the “Investor”).

Offsetting these working capital investments are the increases in other liabilities and accruals of $151,717, combined with an increase in deferred revenue of $469,785, driven by the deposit invoice issued to the UK Licensee in advance of delivery, the actual cash for which was received on October 1, 2021.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements, including unrecorded derivative instruments that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

When we prepare our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), we must make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts we report. Certain of these estimates result from judgements that can be subjective and complex. As a result of that subjectivity and complexity, and because we continuously evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on a variety of factors, actual results could materially differ from our estimates and assumptions if changes in one or more factors require us to make accounting adjustments. We believe our critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. During the three month and six monthsmonth periods ended September 30, 2020,2021, we have made no material changes or additions with regard to such policies and estimates.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Foreign Exchange RiskNot applicable

Our foreign currency exposure gives rise to market risk associated with exchange rate movements against the U.S. dollar, our reporting currency. Currently, most of our expenses and cash are denominated in Great Britain Pounds Sterling (“GBP”), with the remaining portion denominated in U.S. dollars. Fluctuations in exchange rates, primarily the U.S. dollar against the GBP, will affect our financial position. At September 30, 2020, the Company held approximately $2.925 million in GBP-denominated bank accounts. Based on this balance, a 1% depreciation of the GBP against the U.S. dollar would cause an approximate $29,250 reduction in cash account balances.

We have not utilized any hedging instruments in order to mitigate the foreign currency risk.

Inflation

Historically, with UK inflation rates having been low in recent years, inflation has not had a significant effect on our business in the UK, the location of the substantial part of our activities.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on theirthis evaluation, as of September 30, 2020, the Company’s Chief Executive Officerour principal executive officer and Chief Financial Officer haveprincipal financial officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2020, the Company’s2021, our disclosure controls and procedures (as definedwere effective in Rules 13a-15 underalerting them in a timely manner to material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) were not effective due to a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.SEC.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

InThere have been no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15 under the Exchange Act during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2020, as required by Rule 15d-15 promulgated under the Exchange Act, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer identified certain changes, as identified in this paragraph, in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’sour internal control over financial reporting. On September 15, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors appointed Justin Mclarney to serve as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Mclarney has significant experience building and maintaining accounting and business functions compliant with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended. Prior to Mr. Mclarney’s appointment, Mr. Chowdhury, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President and member of the Company’s Board of Directors, also served as interim Chief Financial Officer. Following Mr. Mclarney’s appointment, Mr. Chowdhury continues to serve as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President and director. In addition, the Company hired Mazars, LLP, to provide third party internal audit support to facilitate the creation and maintenance of an internal control environment to remediate the material weakness identified.

 

As a result of the onboarding of a permanent Chief Financial Officer, in combination with the on-going work that the Company has been undertaking with the guidance of Mazars, LLP, we believe that our internal control over financial reporting has improved significantly during the quarter ended September 30, 2020. However, the changes and improvement made were not sufficiently embedded during the quarter ended September 30, 2020, to enable the Company to conclude that the material weakness noted above had been fully remediated.
