NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


NATURE OF OPERATIONS


REPRO MEDKORU MEDICAL SYSTEMS, INC. (the “Company”, “RMS”,“Company,” “KORU Medical,” “we,” “us” or “we”“our”) designs, manufactures and markets proprietary portable and innovative medical devices primarily for the ambulatory infusionsubcutaneous drug delivery market and emergency medical applications as governed by the United States Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) quality and regulatory system and international regulations and standards for quality management systems.system management. The Company operates as one segment.


FISCAL YEAR END


On March 22, 2017, the Board of Directors approved a change in the Company’s fiscal year end from February 28 to December 31.


BASIS OF PRESENTATION


The accompanying unaudited financial statements as of September 30, 2017, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and with instructions to SEC regulation S-X for interim financial statements.


In the opinion of the Company’s management, the financial statements contain all adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2017, and the results of operations and cash flow for the three and seven month periods ended September 30, 2017, and 2016.


The results of operations for the three and seven months ended September 30, 2017, and 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto of the Company and management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations included in the Company’s Annual Reportannual report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2017, as filedDecember 31, 2023 (“Annual Report”).  In accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Company has omitted footnote disclosures that would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements of the Company. The accompanying interim financial statements are unaudited and reflect all adjustments which are in the opinion of management necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented.  All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.  The Company’s results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations and cash flows that it may achieve in future periods.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  The Company has historically held cash balances in excess of $250,000 at its primary commercial bank, which exceeds FDIC insurance limits. To reduce the risk of uninsured deposits, the Company entered an insured cash sweep program with KeyBank during the second quarter of 2023 to automatically invest its uninsured bank cash balances over $250,000 into FDIC insured banks so there is no more than $250,000 maintained at any one bank. As of March 31, 2024 the Company has an investment balance of $10.2 million in a US Treasury bill that matures every 90 days.

PATENTS

Costs incurred in obtaining patents have been capitalized and are being amortized over the legal life of the patents.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company maintains a stock option plan and an omnibus equity incentive plan under which it grants stock options to certain executives, key employees and consultants. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on Form 10-K.the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  All options are charged against income at their fair value.  The entire compensation expense of the award is recognized over the vesting period.


The Company also maintains a non-employee director compensation plan. Shares of stock granted for director fees are recorded at the fair value of the shares at the grant date.

The Company issues restricted stock awards. Restricted stock awards are equity classified and measured at the fair market value of the underlying stock at the grant date. The fair value of restricted stock awards vesting at certain market capitalization thresholds were estimated on the date of grant using the Brownian Motion Monte Carlo lattice model. The fair value of restricted stock awards with time-based vesting were estimated on the date of grant at the current stock price. The fair value of restricted stock awards vesting at certain annual sales growth thresholds were estimated as of the date of Board acknowledgement of the achievement, at the current stock price. We recognize restricted stock expense using the straight-line attribution method over the requisite service period and account for forfeitures as they occur.

NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. The Company’s potentially dilutive common shares are those that result from diluted common stock options and unvested restricted stock awards. The calculation of diluted net loss per share excluded stock options of zero and 14,626, respectively, in weighted-average shares for each of the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, as their effect was anti-dilutive as a result of the net loss incurred for those periods.

The calculation of diluted net loss per share excluded stock options, performance-based restricted stock and performance-based restricted stock units (PSUs) of 904,496 and 914,626 respectively, in weighted-average shares for each of the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, as their effect was anti-dilutive as a result of the net loss incurred for those periods.

The following securities were not included in the computation of diluted shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023 because the effect would be anti-dilutive:

        
  Three Months Ended 
  March 31, 
  2024 2023 
Common stock options $ $14,626 
PSUs  54,496   
Restricted stock  850,000  900,000 
Total $904,496 $914,626 

Therefore, diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding and diluted net loss per share were the same as basic weighted average number of shares outstanding and net loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates. Important estimates include but are not limited to asset lives, deferred tax valuation allowances, inventory valuation, and customer rebate and incentive accruals. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire 2024 fiscal year.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTSTable of Contents


REVENUE RECOGNITION

Our revenues are derived from three business sources: (i) domestic core (which consists of US and Canada), (ii) international core, and (iii) novel therapies.  Our core domestic and international revenues consist of sales of our syringe drivers, tubing and needles (“Product Revenue”) for the delivery of subcutaneous drugs that are FDA cleared for use with the KORU Medical infusion system, with the primary delivery for immunoglobulin to treat Primary Immunodeficiency Diseases (“PIDD”) and Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (“CIDP”). Novel therapies consist of Product Revenue for feasibility/clinical trials (pre-clinical studies, Phase I, Phase II, Phase III) of biopharmaceutical companies in the drug development process as well as non-recurring engineering services (“NRE”) revenues (including testing and registration services) received from biopharmaceutical companies to ready or customize the FREEDOM System for clinical and commercial use across multiple drug categories.

For Product Revenue, we recognize revenues when shipment occurs, and at which point the customer obtains control and ownership of the goods.  Shipping costs generally are billed to customers and are included in Product Revenue.

The Company generally does not accept return of goods shipped unless it is a Company error.  The only credits provided to customers are for defective merchandise.  The Company warrants the syringe driver from defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and the warranty does not include a performance obligation.  The costs under the warranty are expensed as incurred.

Rebates are provided to distributors for the difference in selling price to distributor and pricing specified to select customers.  In May 2017,addition, rebates are provided to customers for meeting growth targets.  Provisions for both distributor pricing and customer growth rebates are variable consideration and are recorded as a reduction of revenue in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-09—Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718),same period the related sales are recorded or when it is probable the growth target will be achieved.

We recognize NRE revenue under an input method, which provides clarity and reduces both (1) diversity in practice and (2) cost and complexity when applyingrecognizes revenue on the guidance in Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, to a changebasis of our efforts or inputs (for example, resources consumed, labor hours expended, costs incurred, or time elapsed) to the terms or conditionssatisfaction of a share-based payment award.performance obligation relative to the total expected inputs to the satisfaction of that performance obligation (i.e. completion milestone). The amendmentsinput method that we use is based on costs incurred.

Contracts are often modified to account for changes in this update affect any entitycontract specifications and requirements. Contract modifications exist when the modification either creates new, or changes existing, enforceable rights and obligations. Generally, when contract modifications create new performance obligations, the modification is considered to be a separate contract and revenue is recognized prospectively. When contract modifications change existing performance obligations, the impact on the existing transaction price and measure of progress for the performance obligation to which it relates is generally recognized as an adjustment to revenue (either as an increase in or a reduction of revenue) on a cumulative catch-up basis. Contract assets primarily represent revenue earnings over time that changesare not yet billable based on the terms of the contracts. Contract liabilities (i.e., deferred revenue) consist of fees invoiced or conditions of a share-based payment award. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017.  Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, for (1) public business entities for reporting periodspaid by the Company’s customers for which financial statementsthe associated performance obligations have not yet been satisfied and revenue has not been recognized based on the Company’s revenue recognition criteria described above. As of March 31, 2024, the Company has recognized a contract asset of zero.

The following table summarizes net revenues by geography for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023:

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13—2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326);: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available for sale debt securities.  For assets held at amortized cost basis, Topic 326 eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses.  The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial assets to present the net amount expected to be collected.  For available for sale debt securities, credit losses should be measured in a manner similar to current GAAP, however Topic 326 will require that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down.  This ASU affects entities holding financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income.  The amendments affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash.  The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  The Company is assessingadopted the pronouncement on January 1, 2023, and there was no impact of the adoption of the ASU on its financial statements, disclosure requirementsstatements.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability.  Fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined using assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value should maximize the use of observable inputs and methodsminimize the use of adoption.unobservable inputs.  To measure fair value, the Company uses the following fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable:


Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.  Value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques and includes instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09—Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The ASU clarifies the principles for recognizing revenuecarrying amounts of cash and develops a common revenue standard forcash equivalents, including investments in short-term U.S. GAAPTreasury bills, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) that removes inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements, provides a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues, improves comparabilityaccrued expenses are considered to be representative of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets, provides more useful information to userstheir fair values because of the financial statements through improved disclosure requirementsshort-term nature of those instruments.  There were no transfers between levels in the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and simplifies2023.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer. The amendments in this update are effective for the annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Full or modified retrospective adoption is required and early application is not permitted. On July 9, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606); Deferralcarrying amount of the Effective Date, which (a) delaysassets may not be fully recoverable.  An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the effective date of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), by one year to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and (b) allows early adoptionuse of the ASU by all entities as ofasset and its eventual disposition are less than the original effective date for public entities.  We currently anticipate adopting the new standard using the modified retrospective method beginning January 1, 2018.  In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606); Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net), which is intended to improve the operability and understandability of the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations and the effective date is the same as the requirements in ASU 2014-09.  In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606); Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which is intended to clarify identifying performance obligations and the licensing implementation guidance, while retaining the related principles for those areas and the effective date is the same as the requirements in ASU 2014-09.  In May 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12—Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606); Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, which is intended to not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606, but rather affect only the narrow aspects of Topic 606 by reducing the potential for diversity in practice at initial application and by reducing the cost and complexity of applying Topic 606 both at transition and on an ongoing basis.carrying amount.  The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments in this update are the same as the effective date and transition requirements for Topic 606 (and any other Topic amended by update 2014-09).  In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-20 Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which represents changes to make minor improvements to the Codification that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative cost to most entities.  This update is the final, combined version of Proposed Accounting Standards Updates 2016-240 and 2016-320 (both entitled Technical Corrections and Improvements), which have been deleted.  We do not expect the adoption of the standard and related amendments to have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.


In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842).  The main difference between the current requirement under GAAP and this ASU is the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases.  This ASU requires that a lessee recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term (other than leases that meet the definition of a short-term lease).  The liability will be equal to the present value of lease payments.  The asset willimpairment loss, if recognized, would be based on the liability, subject to adjustment, such as for initial direct costs.  For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance.  Operating leases will result in straight-line expense (similar to current operating leases) while finance leases will result in a front-loaded expense pattern (similar to current capital leases).  Classification will be based on criteria that are largely similar to those applied in current lease accounting.  For lessors, the guidance modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases.  This is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and early adoption is permitted.  This ASU must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition, and provides for certain practical expedients.  Transition will require applicationexcess of the new guidance at the beginningcarrying value of the earliest comparative period presented.  We are currently assessing the potential impact of this ASU on our financial statements, disclosure requirements and methods of adoption.impaired asset over its respective fair value.  The Company did not record any impairment losses through March 31, 2024.

It also has granted stock options outside of the plans as inducement awards. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  All options are charged against income at their fair value.  The entire compensation expense of the award is recognized over the vesting period.

The Company issues performance share units (PSUs) under its omnibus equity incentive plan. Performance share units are equity classified and measured at the fair market value of the underlying stock at the grant date.

NOTE 4  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


Lawyers representing EMED Technologies Corp. (“EMED”) sent RMS a letter dated, May 1, 2013, which alleged that the RMS High-Flo Butterfly design infringed a patent controlled by EMED.  RMS disputed this claim and believes that our design did not infringe and that the EMED patent itself was not valid.  Under advice of counsel, on September 20, 2013, the Company commenced in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California a Declaratory Judgment action against competitor, EMED to establish the invalidity of one of EMED’s patents and non-infringement of the Company’s needle sets. EMED answered the complaint and asserted patent infringement and unfair business practice counterclaims. The Company responded by asserting its own unfair business practice claims against EMED. Both parties have requested injunctive relief and monetary damages. Discovery is ongoing.


On June 16, 2015, the Court issued what it termed a “narrow” Preliminary Injunction against the Company from making certain statements regarding some of EMED’s products. On June 23, 2016, EMED filed a Motion seeking to have the Company held in contempt, claiming that certain language in the Company’s device labeling does not comply with the injunction. In response to a Show Cause Order, the Company advised the Court that the language in the Company’s labeling that EMED challenged is language that the FDA directed the Company to use in its labeling. The Court discharged the Show Cause Order, effectively rejecting EMED’s contempt argument.


On March 24, 2016, EMED filed a Motion seeking a second Preliminary Injunction prohibiting RMS from selling three of its products in California.  The Company opposed that Motion on April 19, 2016.  The Order denying this second Preliminary Injunction was issued June 6, 2017.


On August 22, 2017, the Company filed a Motion seeking a Preliminary Injunction prohibiting EMED from making false statements and claims regarding the products of both companies.  EMED filed a Response and Objections to Company’s motion on September 21, 2017, and Company filed a subsequent Reply on September 28, 2017.  The Court issued a Minute Order on September 22, 2017 vacating a hearing set for October 5, 2017, and stating that if the Court determines oral hearings to be required, the parties will be notified.  Presently, the parties are awaiting further action by the Court.


On June 25, 2015, EMED filed a claim of patent infringement for the second of its patents, also directed to the Company’s needle sets, in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.  This second patent is related to the one concerning the Company’s declaratory judgment action. Given the close relationship between the two patents, the Company requested that the Texas suit be transferred to California.  Also, based on a validity review of the patent in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”), discussed below, the Company requested the Texas suit be stayed.  On May 12, 2016, the Court entered an order staying the case until after the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“PTAB”) at the USPTO issued a final written decision regarding the validity of the patent.  On January 12, 2017, the PTAB issued its final written decision invalidating the claims asserted by EMED in the Texas litigation. On January 26, 2017, the Company and EMED requested that the Texas case remain stayed pending EMED’s appeal of the PTAB’s final ruling to the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (“CAFC”).


- 9 -



On September 11, 2015, the Company requested an ex parte reexamination of the patent in the first filed case, and on September 17, 2015 the Company requested an inter partes review (“IPR”) of the patent in the second filed case. On November 20, 2015, the USPTO instituted the ex parte reexamination request having found a substantial new question of patentability concerning EMED’s patent in the first filed case. All EMED claims have been rejected by the USPTO Examiner in a Final Office Action dated July 19, 2017.  EMED filed a response to this Final Office Action on September 15, 2017 that is awaiting consideration by the Examiner.  Thus, the ex parte reexamination is ongoing.  A decision to institute the IPR for EMED’s patent in the second filed case was ordered by the USPTO on February 19, 2016 having determined a reasonable likelihood all claims of the patent may be found to be unpatentable.  Oral argument for the IPR was held on November 22, 2016 and a final ruling issued on January 12, 2017.  In its final ruling, the PTAB held the claim asserted by EMED against the Company in the second filed case was invalid.  EMED appealed the PTAB’s final ruling, and EMED’s opening brief in the CAFC was filed on June 26, 2017.  The Company’s response brief was filed on August 3, 2017.  EMED filed a reply brief on August 17, 2017.  Presently, the parties are awaiting further action by the CAFC.


Although the Company believes it has meritorious claims and defenses in these actions and proceedings, their outcomes cannot be predicted with any certainty. We believe that it is likely both patents will be determined invalid, however, if any of these actions against the Company are successful, they could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.


NOTE 5  STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY


On September 30, 2015, RMS’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to make open market purchases of up to 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock.  The purchases are made through a broker designated by the Company, with price, timing and volume restrictions based on average daily trading volume, consistent with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission for such repurchases.  As of September 30, 2017, the Company had repurchased 396,606 shares at an average price of $0.45.  The management of the Company has decided to discontinue repurchasing its outstanding common stock under the program for an undetermined period of time to utilize cash for capital investments needed to expand the business.


NOTE 6  STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION


On September 30, 2015, the Board of Directors approved the 2015 Stock Option Plan (“the Plan”) authorizing the Company to grant stock option awards to certain officers, employees and consultants under the Plan, subject to shareholder approval at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on September 6, 2016.  The total number of shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), with respect to which awards may be granted pursuant to the Plan was not to exceed 2,000,000 shares.


On June 29, 2016, the Board of Directors approved the amendment to the Plan increasing the total number of shares of Common Stock to be subject to awards granted under the Plan to 4,000,000 shares.  On September 6, 2016, at the Annual Shareholder Meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved the Plan as amended.


As of September 30, 2017, there were outstanding 1,163,000 options awarded to certain executives, key employees and advisory board members under the Plan.


On October 21, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Company approved non-employee director compensation of $25,000 each annually, to be paid quarterly half in cash and half in common stock, beginning September 1, 2015.


The per share weighted average fair value of stock options granted during the seven months ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016 was $0.26 and zero, respectively. The fair value of each award is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used for grants in the seven months ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016. Historical information was the primary basis for the selection of the expected volatility, expected dividend yield and the expected lives of the options.  The risk-free interest rate was selected based upon yields of the U.S. Treasury issues with a term equal to the expected life of the option being valued:

NOTE 6 — INCOME TAXES

For interim income tax reporting, the Company estimates its annual effective tax rate and applies it to fiscal year-to-date pretax loss, excluding unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items. Tax jurisdictions with losses for which tax benefits cannot be realized are excluded. The Company reported an income tax expense of zero and income tax benefit of $0.6 million for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

We evaluate our deferred tax assets to determine if they are more likely than not to be realized by assessing both positive and negative evidence in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes.  After considering our cumulative pretax loss (the three-year period ending with the current year), as well as analyzing all available evidence, we have recorded a valuation allowance of $6.0 million against our net deferred tax assets during the year ended December 31, 2023.  As of March 31, 2024, the valuation allowance is $6.4 million As we continue to assess the realizability of our deferred tax assets, reported pretax income and new evidence may result in a partial or full reduction of the valuation allowance in future periods.

Recurring items cause our effective tax rate to differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21%, including U.S. federal R&D credits, U.S. state tax rates, and stock-based compensation.

Beginning in 2022, certain research and development costs are required to be capitalized and amortized over a five-year period under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act enacted in December 2017. This change will impact the expected U.S. federal and state income tax expense and cash taxes to be paid for our fiscal 2024.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in various state jurisdictions. Income tax returns for years prior to fiscal 2020 are no longer subject to examination by tax authorities.

OVERVIEW


On March 22, 2017,The Company develops, manufactures and markets proprietary portable and innovative medical devices primarily for the Boardsubcutaneous drug delivery market as governed by the United States Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) quality and regulatory system and international regulations and standards for quality system management.

Our revenues derive from three business sources: (i) domestic core (which consists of Directors approved a changeUS and Canada), (ii) international core, and (iii) novel therapies.  Our domestic core and international core revenues consist of sales of our products for the delivery of subcutaneous drugs that are FDA cleared for use with the FREEDOM Infusion System, with the primary delivery for immunoglobulin to treat Primary Immunodeficiency Diseases (“PIDD”) and Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy (“CIDP”). Novel therapies revenues consist of product revenues from our infusion system (syringe drivers, tubing and needles) for feasibility/clinical trials (pre-clinical studies, Phase I, Phase II, Phase III) of biopharmaceutical companies in the Company’s fiscal year enddrug development process as well as non-recurring engineering services revenues (“NRE”) received from February 28biopharmaceutical companies to December 31.ready or customize the FREEDOM System for clinical and commercial use.


DuringThe Company ended the first quarter of 2024 with $8.2 million in net revenues, a 10.9% increase compared with $7.4 million in the same period last year. Revenues were driven by volume growth in our core domestic and international business of 4.1% and 63.1% respectively, slightly offset by a 21.3% decline in our novel therapies business.

Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2017, our total net sales were up 19.5% compared withMarch 31, 2024, was $5.1 million, an increase of $1 million, or 23.1%, from $4.1 million for the same period last year, with the majority of the increase comingdriven primarily by additional revenue from higher volume in our core businesses and manufacturing efficiencies from our domestic customers.  Ouroutsourced manufacturing compared to the same period last year. Gross margin was 62.3%, an increase from 56.1% in the prior year period. We define gross margin as gross profit stated as a percentage 61.8%, was not as high asof net revenues.

Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2024, were $7.1 million, compared to $7.2 million for the same period last year, 63.1%, mostly due to higher production costs related to scrap during quality inspections as we continue to work to implementdriven primarily by a nondestructive testing protocol, which we expect to have implemented before the enddecrease of the calendar year.  Our selling, general$0.1 million in research and administrative costs were 10.4% lower for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared with the same period last year mostly due to a significant reduction in legal fees for the quarter related to our litigation and regulatory efforts.development expenses.


Our net sales for the seven months ended September 30, 2017 increased 26.0%, versus the same period last year.  Part of the increase was the result of backorders of $0.4 million at February 28, 2017 which were filled during the three month period ended June 30, 2017.  Excluding these backorders, net sales grew 18.0% driven by growth both domestically and internationally, which included a larger pump order from a national customer in the period and a large return of product related to a market withdrawal last year.  Our selling, general and administrative costs were 7.2% lower for the seven months ended September 30, 2017 compared with the same period last year. We saw a significant reduction in legal fees related to our litigation and regulatory efforts.  However, we cannot predict whether this trend will continue, nor can we predict the outcome of the litigation or regulatory process.  We also had reductions in sales and marketing spend driven by reduced consulting fees that were incurred last year related to our website redesign, public relations, sales training and lead generation efforts and the timing of spend for current year marketing initiatives.  Offsetting these savings were increased salary and related benefit costs in our regulatory department due to headcount to support our regulatory compliance requirements and the addition of our Chief Operating Officer.


We continue to expand internationally, generating our first sales in Asia and Africa in the 2017 quarter.  The FDA issued a new 510(k) clearance for our Integrated Catch-Up Freedom Syringe Driver System, the first ever fully integrated 510(k) cleared system by the FDA, confirming the science behind the performance of using the dedicated RMS system.  It is also the only mechanical infusion system cleared for both subcutaneous drugs (SCIg) and intravenous (antibiotics), clearing the path for customers to invest in one system to meet all their needs.  The FDA renewed our Certificate to Foreign Government which is used to communicate to foreign governments that the FDA certified that RMS meets good manufacturing practices and quality system regulations.  We received registrations in new countries, launched our new flow controller in Europe and started several clinical trials with drug companies. Furthermore, we have launched a new marketing campaign, redesigned our packaging and entered the social media world to help extend our brand awareness.  We plan to continue to focus on global sales growth, cost control and new product development.  We have requested an extension on the lease for our facility as we continue to assess what our strategy for future expansion and growth requirements will be.

To develop new products, support future growth, achieve operating efficiencies, and patent costs.maintain product quality, we are continuing to invest in research and development, and equipment.


Our inventory position was $3.1 million at March 31, 2024, which reflects a decrease of $0.3 million from December 31, 2023.

FDAACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS NOT YET ADOPTED


RMS had an inspection by the FDA in June 2015, which included, among other items, a review of customer complaints, quality controls, quality assurance and documentation. The FDA inspection was then expanded as a consequence of an extensive “trade complaint” filed on behalf of a competitor which resultedRefer to “NOTE 1 — NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES” in the issuance of an FDA FORM 483.  Eight months later, on February 29, 2016 we received a Warning Letter.  Since that time the Company has successfully addressed all quality and regulatory issues cited in the Warning Letter and the FDA FORM 483.  On October 2, 2017, the FDA conducted another inspection as a last step in closing the Warning Letter.  We anticipate the Warning Letter to be closed in the near future.


On April 19, 2017, the FDA renewed our Certificate to Foreign Governmentaccompanying financial statements, which is used to communicate to foreign governments that the FDA confirmed and certified that RMS meets U.S. FDA good manufacturing practices and quality system regulations.incorporated herein by reference.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS


In May 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-09—Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), which provides clarity and reduces both (1) diversity in practice and (2) cost and complexity when applying the guidance in Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, to a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award.  The amendments in this update affect any entity that changes the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017.  Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, for (1) public business entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued and (2) all other entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been made available for issuance. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date.  Based upon our initial evaluation, we do not expect the adoption of the standard to have a material effect on our financial statements, disclosure requirements and methods of adoption.


In June 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13—Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326); Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available for sale debt securities.  For assets held at amortized cost basis, Topic 326 eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and, instead, requires an entity to reflect its current estimate of all expected credit losses. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial assets to present the net amount expected to be collected.  For available for sale debt securities, credit losses should be measured in a manner similar to current GAAP, however Topic 326 will require that credit losses be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down.  This ASU affects entities holding financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. The amendments affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash.  The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  The Company is assessing the impact of the adoption of the ASU on its financial statements, disclosure requirements and methods of adoption.


In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09—Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The ASU clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and develops a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) that removes inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements, provides a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues, improves comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets, provides more useful information to users of the financial statements through improved disclosure requirements and simplifies the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer. The amendments in this update are effective for the annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Full or modified retrospective adoption is required and early application is not permitted. On July 9, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606); Deferral of the Effective Date, which (a) delays the effective date of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), by one year to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and (b) allows early adoption of the ASU by all entities as of the original effective date for public entities.  We currently anticipate adopting the new standard using the modified retrospective method beginning January 1, 2018.  In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606); Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net), which is intended to improve the operability and understandability of the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations and the effective date is the same as the requirements in ASU 2014-09.  In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606); Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which is intended to clarify identifying performance obligations and the licensing implementation guidance, while retaining the related principles for those areas and the effective date is the same as the requirements in ASU 2014-09.  In May 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12—Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606); Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, which is intended to not change the core principle of the guidance in Topic 606, but rather affect only the narrow aspects of Topic 606 by reducing the potential for diversity in practice at initial application and by reducing the cost and complexity of applying Topic 606 both at transition and on an ongoing basis.  The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments in this update are the same as the effective date and transition requirements for Topic 606 (and any other Topic amended by update 2014-09).  In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-20 Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which represents changes to make minor improvements to the Codification that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative cost to most entities.  This update is the final, combined version of Proposed Accounting Standards Updates 2016-240 and 2016-320 (both entitled Technical Corrections and Improvements), which have been deleted.  We do not expect the adoption of the standard and related amendments to have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842).  The main difference between the current requirement under GAAP and this ASU is the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases.  This ASU requires that a lessee recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term (other than leases that meet the definition of a short-term lease).  The liability will be equal to the present value of lease payments.  The asset will be based on the liability, subject to adjustment, such as for initial direct costs.  For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance.  Operating leases will result in straight-line expense (similar to current operating leases) while finance leases will result in a front-loaded expense pattern (similar to current capital leases).  Classification will be based on criteria that are largely similar to those applied in current lease accounting.  For lessors, the guidance modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases.  This is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and early adoption is permitted.  This ASU must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition, and provides for certain practical expedients.  Transition will require application of the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented.  We are currently assessing the potential impact of this ASU on our financial statements, disclosure requirements and methods of adoption.


The Company considers the applicability and impact of all recently issued accounting pronouncements. Recent accounting pronouncements not specifically identified in our disclosures are either not applicable to the Company or are not expected to have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
