Organization and Operations

 

KT High-Tech Marketing,KULR Technology Group, Inc. ("KT High-Tech") was incorporated on December 11, 2015. Prior to the reverse recapitalization discussed below, KT High-Tech was an early-stage company planning to market and distribute technology products and components targeting the energy and consumer electronics industries. KT High-Tech intended to market and sell the products to both the end user and supply chain markets and to seek partnerships in developing and distributing such products. After the reverse recapitalization discussed below, KTHT integrated, through its existing business operations with those of itswholly-owned subsidiary, KULR Technology Corporation.

KULR, a wholly-owned subsidiary of KT High-TechCorporation (collectively referred to as “KULR” or the “Company”), was formed in 2013develops and is based in Santa Clara, California. KULR is primarily focused on commercializing itscommercializes high-performance thermal management technologies infor electronics, batteries, and other components across a range of applications. Currently, the Company is focused on targeting both, high value, high-performance consumer electronicperformance aerospace and energy storage applications. KULR owns proprietary carbon fiber based (Carbon Fiber Velvet or “CFV”) thermal management solutions that it believes are more effective at storing, conducting, and dissipating waste heat generated by an electronic system’s internal components (i.e. semiconductor, integrated circuits “chips”) in comparison to traditional materials, such as copper and aluminum. KULR’s technologies can be applied inside a wide arrayDepartment of electronicDefense (“DOD”) applications, such as mobile devices, cloud computing, virtual reality platforms, satellites, internet of things, drones,satellite communications, directed energy system and connected cars. In additionhypersonic vehicle, and applying them to thermal management of electronic systems, KULR has developed a highly effective, passivemass market commercial applications, such as lithium-ion battery energy storage, solution for lithium ion batteries that has been testedelectrical vehicle, 5G communications, cloud computer infrastructure, consumer and endorsed by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (“NASA”).

Reverse Recapitalization

On June 8, 2017, KT High-Tech entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with KULR and 100% of the shareholders of KULR (the “KULR Shareholders”). On June 19, 2017 (the “Closing Date”), the Company closed the transaction contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement. Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, the KULR Stockholders agreed to transfer an aggregate of 25,000,000 shares of KULR’s common stock to the Company in exchange for the Company’s issuance of an aggregate of 50,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to the KULR Stockholders (the “Share Exchange”). KULR became a wholly-owned subsidiary of KT High-Tech and the KULR Stockholders now beneficially own approximately 64.57% of KT High-Tech’s common stock on a fully-diluted basis. Upon the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, a representative of the KULR Stockholders was appointed to be the Company’s second Board Director.industrial devices.

NOTE 2       GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT’S PLANS

 

The closingCompany has not yet achieved profitability and expects to continue to incur cash outflows from operations. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had cash of $2,809,656 and a working capital deficit of $404,561. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred net losses of $1,991,497 and $1,454,643, respectively, and used cash in operations of $2,076,035 and $1,206,135, respectively. It is expected that research and development and general and administrative expenses will continue to increase and, as a result, the Company will eventually need to generate significant revenues to achieve profitability. Further, as of September 30, 2020, the Company has debt principal outstanding on notes payable in the amount of $3,150,000 which mature between May 31 and July 20, 2021 and $155,226 of principal outstanding pursuant to the PPP loan agreement that matures in April 2022.

In January 2020, an outbreak of a new strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, was identified in Wuhan, China. Through the first quarter of 2020, the disease became widespread around the world, and on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared a pandemic. Our business is dependent on developing new markets and new products to be used on a global basis, thus restrictions on travel could lead to reduced demand for our products and interruptions to supply chains. Also, the local regulations such as “Shelter in Place” will affect our ability to maintain regular R&D and manufacturing schedules as well as the capability to meet customer demands in a timely manner. Given the uncertainty around the extent and timing of the Share Exchangepotential future spread or mitigation of the Coronavirus and around the imposition or relaxation of protective measures, we cannot reasonably estimate the impact to our future results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition.

Effective February 27, 2020, the Company entered into a twenty-four month Standby Equity Distribution Agreement was accounted(“SEDA”) with an Investor, pursuant to which the Company may, at its discretion, sell up to an aggregate of $8,000,000 (subject to the Investor’s approval for amounts over $100,000) of shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to 80% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price for the five days immediately following the date the Company delivers notice requiring the Investor to purchase the shares under the SEDA. For each advance, the Company shall have delivered all shares relating to all prior advances, and, unless waived by the Investor, at least 5 trading days shall have elapsed from the immediately preceding advance date (see Note 11 – Stockholders’ Deficiency). Additionally, the Company applied for, and in April 2020, received, a loan of $155,226 under the government Small Business Administration (“SBA”) sponsored Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”) to support continuing employment during the COVID-19 pandemic.

As of September 30, 2020, the Company had approximately $5,847,300 available in connection with the SEDA, subject to certain conditions, in order to fund its ongoing operations; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to sell common shares pursuant to the SEDA at an acceptable price, or without causing undue dilution to existing investors. Further, there is also no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to obtain additional funds on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate funds on reasonable terms, it may be required to significantly curtail or discontinue operations or obtain funds by entering into financing agreements on unattractive terms. The Company’s operating needs include the planned costs to operate its business, including amounts required to fund working capital and capital expenditures.

The aforementioned conditions indicate that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a reverse recapitalization undergoing concern within one year after the provisionsfinancial statement issuance date.

Inventory

Inventory is comprised of CFV thermal management solutions and heatsinks, which are available for sale. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method. Inventory that is sold to third parties is included within cost of sales and inventory that is given as samples is included within operating expenses. The Company periodically reviews for slow-moving, excess or obsolete inventories. Products that are determined to be obsolete, if any, are written down to net realizable value. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s inventory was comprised solely of finished goods.

Convertible Instruments

The Company evaluates its convertible instruments to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivative financial instruments to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 815. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record embedded conversion options and any related freestanding instruments at their fair values as of the inception date of the agreement and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense for each reporting period at each balance sheet date. The Company reassesses the classification of its derivative instruments at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the contract is reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification. Embedded conversion options and any related freestanding instruments are recorded as a discount to the host instrument.

6

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the guidance of ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable

LevelNOTE 3       — inputs that are unobservable (for example, cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, such as cash, accounts receivable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying amounts of the Company’s short–term credit obligations approximate fair value because the effective yields on these obligations, which include contractual interest rates, are comparable to rates of returns for instruments of similar credit risk.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue whenin accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”). The core principle of ASC 606 requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is realized or realizablepossible more judgment and earned. The Company considersestimates may be required within the revenue realized or realizablerecognition process, including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and earned when all ofallocating the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the services have been renderedtransaction price to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. Sales are recognized upon shipment to the customer, free on board shipping point, or the point of customer acceptance.each separate performance obligation.

 

DuringThe following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:

·Step 1: Identify the three months endedcontract with the customer;

·Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract;

·Step 3: Determine the transaction price;

·Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

·Step 5: Recognize revenue when the company satisfies a performance obligation.

The Company recognizes revenue primarily from the following different types of contracts:

·Product sales – Revenue is recognized at the point in time the customer obtains control of the goods and the Company satisfies its performance obligation, which is generally at the time it ships the product to the customer.

·Contract services – Revenue is recognized at the point in time that the Company satisfies its performance obligation under the contract, which is generally at the time the services are fulfilled and/or accepted by the customer.

The following table summarizes the revenue recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations:

Overview

 

 KT High-Tech Marketing,KULR Technology Group, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on December 11, 2015 under the laws of the State of Delaware, and was formerly known as Grant Hill Acquisition Corporation. In April 2016, the Company implemented a change of control by issuing shares to new shareholders, redeeming shares of existing shareholders, electing new officers and directors and accepting the resignations of its then existing officers and directors. In connection with the change of control, the shareholders of the Company and its board of directors unanimously approved the change of the Company’s name from Grant Hill Acquisition Corporation to KT High-Tech Marketing, Inc. in April 2016.

On June 19, 2017, the Company closed a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with, through our wholly-owned subsidiary KULR Technology Corporation, a Delaware Corporation (“KULR”),develops and 100% of the shareholders of KULR (the “KULR Shareholders”). Upon the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, KULR became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The acquisition of KULR is treated as a reverse acquisition, and the business of KULR was integrated into the Company (the transaction, the “Reverse Acquisition”).

KULR was formed in 2013 and is based in Santa Clara, California. Since its inception, KULR primarily focused on developing and commercializing itscommercializes high-performance thermal management technologies for batteries, electronics, and other components across an array of battery-powered applications. For aerospace and DOD applications, our solutions target high performance applications in direct energy, hypersonic vehicles and satellite communications. For commercial applications, our main focus is a total solution to battery safety by which it acquiredwe aim to mitigate the effects of thermal runaway propagation. This total battery safety solution can be used for electric vehicles, energy storage, battery recycling transportation, cloud computing and 5G communication devices. Our proprietary core technology is a carbon fiber material that provides what we believe to be superior thermal conductivity and heat dissipation for an ultra-lightweight and pliable material. By leveraging our proprietary cooling solutions that have been developed through assignmentlongstanding partnerships with NASA, the Jet Propulsion Lab and others, our products and services make commercial battery powered products safer and electronics systems cooler and lighter.

KULR’s business model continues to evolve from being a component supply, to providing more design and license with KULR’s co-founder Dr. Timothy Knowles,testing services to our customers. The next step of evolution is to provide total system solution to address market needs. To scale up as a systems provider more quickly and efficiently in the high value, high-performance consumer electronic anddirected energy, hypersonic vehicle thermal systems, energy storage applications. Priorand lithium-ion battery recycling markets, KULR will actively seek partners for joint venture, technology licensing and other strategic partnership models. The goal is to 2013,leverage the Company’s technologies werethermal design technology expertise to create market leading products, which KULR will take to market directly to capture more value for KULR shareholders.

Our management expects high priority and growth in the aerospace and defense sectors, specifically in regard to directed energy, hypersonic weapon programs, and space missions. Directed energy is currently in the spotlight as experts predict it will greatly impact the future of warfare. Our CRUX cathode generates powerful electron pulses by field emission from the tops of our carbon fiber coating which has the potential to further develop the current technology. Thermal management is another critical component of both hypersonic weapons programs and space missions and is another area in which our products excel. Our carbon fiber solutions are used for thermal management in missile defense programs and are particularly effective because of their survivability at very high temperatures. They are also very effective at transferring heat and mitigate the risk of overheating in such high-risk environments. Historically we have provided value to this sector and we expect to further develop our relationships with Airforce Research Lab, Naval Research Lab and prime contractors to market our solutions.

Battery safety technology is becoming increasingly vital to our world in which battery-operated devices are everywhere. Lithium ion (“Li-ion”) batteries are widely used in numerous advanced space and industrial applications for NASA, Boeing, and Raytheon. A few notable achievements were the use of KULR’s technologies in: the Mars Lander/Rover (battery heat sink), X-31 Battery Heat Sink, Mercury Messenger (battery heat sink), and X-51 Scramjet (heat exchanger).

Prior to the Reverse Acquisition, the Company was an early-stage company planning to market and distribute technology products and components targeting the energy and consumer electronics, industries. The Company intended to marketaerospace, marine and sell the products to both the end user and supply chain markets and to seek partnerships in developing and distributing such products.

After the Reverse Acquisition, the Company integratedautomotive applications. In recent months, KULR has developed a total battery safety solution for its existing business operations with those of its subsidiary, KULR. KULR owns proprietary carbon fiber based (Carbon Fiber Velvet or “CFV”) thermal management solutionscustomers that it believes are more effective at conducting, dissipating and storing heat generated by an electronic system’s internal components (i.e. semiconductor, integrated circuits “chips”) in comparison to traditional materials, such as copper and aluminum. KULR’s technologies can be applied insidespans a wide array of electronicindustries and applications. KULR has seen great success in using our patented thermal runaway shield (“TRS”) technology to prevent cell to cell thermal runaway propagation as well as module to module propagation. We have designed a total solution for customers from the design stages incorporating our materials all the way to testing their passive propagation resistant (“PPR”) battery packs. We are flexible and can work with different battery pack configurations across various industries. We developed a PPR reference design for CubeSat battery in December 2019. Based on this reference design platform, we were awarded a dual-used technology development agreement from NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center to build 3D printed battery systems for manned and robotic space applications suchin August 2020. Our research and testing, as mobile devices, cloud computing, virtual reality platforms, satellites, internetwell as working alongside battery experts at NASA Johnson Space Center, has positioned us for further advancements at the forefront of things, drones,battery safety.


Hundreds of millions of Li-ion cells are produced and connected cars.transported annually and even those packaged to prevent external short can still experience thermal runaway (“TR”) due to internal shorts, caused by latent defects, when fully charged. In these dangerous cases, a torch-like fire is released as energy escapes from the cell and sends nearby cells into TR resulting in a large fire. As part of our total battery safety solution, we have designed a bag out of our TRS material to suppress the flames and prevent the TR event. Suitably placed, the TRS provides a means of protection not only from adjacent batteries but also outside fires of arbitrary origin. Experts at NASA’s Propulsion & Power Division found our TRS successful at extinguishing the fire generated by cells when they intentionally triggered the batteries into dangerous failures. Our TRS bag is currently being used on the International Space Station (“ISS”) through a project with Leidos, for storing laptop batteries in order to reduce the risk of TR. 

 

Thermal Management SolutionsAnother key element of our battery safety solution is KULR internal short circuit (“ISC”) device and trigger cells which are used for cell testing and screening. Our patented ISC device, licensed from NASA/NREL, can be inserted by OEMs or manufacturers into cells to mimic failure conditions in a cell. Once the trigger device is placed inside the cell, it can be intentionally triggered on demand causing the cell to short circuit. Currently, we provide ISC devices to OEMs and cell manufacturers, as well as ready-made ISC trigger cells to customers to identify failure modes and safety issues within their systems. Currently we are creating an ecosystem based on our technology which can be applied to different battery architectures and chemistries.

 

 

Three key vectors have driven advancementsOur management believes that within commercial markets, aerospace and defense, and high-value applications, cell testing and screening has become a topic of focus. Therefore, we plan to expand our capabilities to include full battery analysis and testing as outlined by NASA Johnson Space Center. We plan to fully incorporate this into our holistic approach to battery safety along with our PPR battery pack design and testing services, ISC device and trigger cell products and TRS bags. With increasing regulations and pressure from government bodies to mitigate the dangers of battery fires and TR, we plan to further develop our capabilities in semiconductors and electronics systems – performance, power, and size. These vectors, however, often counteract one another. As chip performance increases, power consumption increases and more heat is generated as a byproduct. When chip size reduces, there is an increased potential for a hot spot on the chip, which can degrade system performance. Electronic system components must operate within a specific temperature range on both the high and low end to operate properly. KULR resolves many of the tradeoffs associated with other thermal management materials. KULR’s products improve heat storage and dissipation, rigidity problems and durability. Its products are lightweight and reduce manufacturing complexity associated with traditional thermal management materials.this arena.

 

In addition to evolving demands led by aerospace and defense, we have observed trending manufacturer-led opportunities in industries such as electric motor vehicles (“EV”) that have become increasingly more reliant on the Cloud, portability and high-demand processing power. KULR’s high performance thermal interface materials can be used to accelerate 5G communications development due to our material’s core properties: high thermal conductivity, light weight, and low contact pressure. 5G is one of the biggest opportunities going forward for transportation technology and we plan to take part in testing of digital and RF tests for 5G. Testing is still in early phases for both digital and RF communication chips, however, we are seeing a big growth opportunity for thermal management for 5G. Cloud computing is also an application of electronic systems, KULR has developed, in partnership with NASA JSC, a highly effective, lightweightinterest since high power communications chips and passive thermal protection technology. Thermal Runaway Shield (TRS) for lithium ion batteries. KULR’s lithium ion battery (Li-B) TRS product prevents a potentially dangerous combustible condition known as thermal runawayoptical communication modules require cooling.

We have not yet achieved profitability and expect to continue to incur cash outflows from occurring in neighboring Li-B cells by actingoperations, as a shield or barrierresult, we will eventually need to generate significant revenues to achieve profitability. These conditions indicate that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the financial statement issuance date. Historically, we have been able to raise funds to support our business operations, although there can be no assurance, even with the support of borrowing under the SEDA, that we will be successful in between individual Li-B cellsraising additional funds in a battery pack. Although rare, incidents of thermal runaway occurring spontaneously in Li-B cargo shipmentsthe future. Furthermore, we remain focused on growing our operations and inside electronics, including smartphones, hover boards and electric vehicles, are a cause of public concern.eventually achieving profitability, although no assurances can be made that we will achieve such goals.

 


Recent Developments

COVID-19

In January 2020, an outbreak of a new strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, was identified in Wuhan, China. Through the first quarter of 2020, the disease became widespread around the world, and on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared a pandemic. Our business is dependent on developing new markets and new products to be used on a global basis, thus restrictions on travel could lead to reduced demand for our products and interruptions to supply chains. Also, the local regulations such as “Shelter in Place” will affect our ability to maintain regular R&D and manufacturing schedules as well as the capability to meet customer demands in a timely manner. Given the uncertainty around the extent and timing of the potential future spread or mitigation of the Coronavirus and around the imposition or relaxation of protective measures, we cannot reasonably estimate the impact to our future results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition.

Standby Equity Distribution Agreement

Total revenue $136,849  $526,722  $415,477  $777,984 

 

For the three months ended September 30, 20172020 and 2016,2019, we generated $15,106$136,849 and $0$526,722 of revenues, respectively, an increaserepresenting a decrease of $15,106.$389,873, or 74%. Revenue from product sales during the three months ended September 30, 2020 decreased by 71% compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019, mainly due to a large contract received during the three months ended September 30, 2019. Product sales during these periods included sales of our component products, carbon fiber velvet (“CFV”) thermal management solutions, ISC battery cells and devices, patented TRS technology, and thermal fiber thermal interface (“FTI”) materials. Contract services during the comparable period consisted of certain research and development contracts and onsite engineering services.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 20172020 and 2016,2019, we generated $26,006$415,477 and $6,900$777,984 of revenues an increasefrom 20 and 21 customers, respectively, representing a decrease of $19,106,$362,507, or 277%47%. Revenue from product sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 decreased by 66% compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019, mainly due to a large DOD contract of about $355,000 received during the three months ended September 30, 2019. The customer has pushed the next shipment of product to 2021. Product sales during these periods included sales of our component products, CFV thermal management solutions, ISC battery cells and devices, patented technology, and thermal FTI materials. Revenue from services increased by 96% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019, due to increased project requirements from some of our new and existing customers. Our service revenues, which include certain research and development contracts and onsite engineering services, were not hampered by restrictions arising from working under COVID-19 shelter-in-place regulations.

 

Our customers and prospective customers are large organizations with multiple levels of management, controls/procedures, and contract evaluation/authorization. Furthermore, our solutions are new and do not necessarily fit into pre-existing patterns of purchase commitment. Accordingly, the business activity cycle between expression of initial customer interest to shipping, acceptance and billing can be lengthy, unpredictable, and lumpy, which can influence the timing, consistency and reporting of sales growth.


Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues consists of research and developmentthe cost of our products as well as labor expenses directly related to product sales as well asor research contract services.

Generally, we earn greater margins on revenue from products compared to revenue from services, so product mix plays an important role in our reported average margins for any period. Also, we are introducing new products at an early stage in our development cycle and the cost of our CFV thermal management solutionmargins earned can vary significantly between period, customers and PCM heat sinks.products, due to the learning process, customer negotiating strengths, and product mix.

SummaryIn January 2020, an outbreak of a new strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, was identified in Wuhan, China. Through the first quarter of 2020, the disease became widespread around the world, and on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared a pandemic. Our business is dependent on developing new markets and new products to be used on a global basis, thus restrictions on travel could lead to reduced demand for our products and interruptions to supply chains. Also, the local regulations such as “Shelter in Place” will affect our ability to maintain regular R&D and manufacturing schedules as well as the capability to meet customer demands in a timely manner. Given the uncertainty around the extent and timing of the potential future spread or mitigation of the Coronavirus and around the imposition or relaxation of protective measures, we cannot reasonably estimate the impact to our future results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition.


During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we received net proceeds of $3,710,000 pursuant to a two Note Purchase Agreements with YAII (the “Notes”). The Notes bear no interest and mature between May 31 through July 20, 2020 and will be paid in monthly installments through the maturity date.

Additionally, in April 2020, the Company received a loan of $155,226 under the government Small Business Administration (“SBA”) sponsored Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”) to support continuing employment during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Effective February 27, 2020, the Company entered into a twenty-four month Standby Equity Distribution Agreement (“SEDA”) with YAII, pursuant to which the Company may, at its discretion, sell to up to an aggregate of $8,000,000 (subject to YAII’s approval for amounts over $100,000) of shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to Company 80% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price for the five days immediately following the date the Company delivers notice requiring YAII to purchase the shares under the SEDA. For each advance, the Company shall have delivered all shares relating to all prior advances, and, unless waived by YAII, at least 5 trading days shall have elapsed from the immediately preceding advance date. Through September 30, 2020, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,721,013 shares of common stock at prices between $0.72 - $1.65 per share for aggregate proceeds of $2,152,696 in connection with advance notices submitted to YAII under the SEDA, of which $691,000 of the proceeds were applied directly against the principal due under the Notes.

 

As of September 30, 2017,2020, we had approximately $5,847,300 available in connection with the SEDA, in order to fund our ongoing operations; however, there can be no assurance that we will be able to continue sell common shares pursuant to the SEDA at an acceptable price, or without causing undue dilution to our existing investors.

Subsequent to September 30, 2020, we issued an aggregate of 89,285 shares of common stock at a price of $1.12 per share pursuant to advance notices submitted to the Investor under the SEDA. The entire proceeds of $100,000 were withheld by the Investor to pay down a portion of the principal due under the Notes.  

Subsequent to September 30, 2020, we made cash balance,payments totaling $250,000 to pay down a portion of the principal due under the Notes.

We have not yet achieved profitability and expect to continue to incur cash outflows from operations. It is expected that our research and development and general and administrative expenses will continue to increase and, as a result, we will eventually need to generate significant revenues and/or raise additional capital to fund our operations. Although our management believes that we have access to capital resources through the SEDA or other sources, there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain funds on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate funds on reasonable terms, we may be required to significantly curtail or discontinue operations or obtain funds by entering into financing agreements on unattractive terms. Our operating needs include the planned costs to operate our business, including amounts required to fund working capital of and an accumulated deficit of $1,653,492, $1,050,984 and $3,691,660, respectively. Duringcapital expenditures. The conditions outlined above indicate that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, we incurred a net loss of $839,252 and $1,757,850, respectively.financial statement issuance date.
