Note 2.          Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Consolidation, Basis of Presentation and Significant Estimates
 
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods ended September 30,March 31, 2017 and 2016 and 2015 included herein are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-companyintercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  Such consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations as of and for the periods indicated. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 20162017 or for any other period. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the interim information presented not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements disclosed in the Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20152016 filed on April 12. 2016 and the Company’s Form 10-K/A filed on September 6, 201614, 2017 and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
In preparing the accompanying condensed consolidated accompanying financial statements, management has made certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures of contingencies. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates and actual results may differ from these estimates.

Going Concern
 
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America,GAAP, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.  This contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  At September 30, 2016,March 31, 2017, the Company’s cash balance was $32,000$269,000 and its operating losses for the year ended December 31, 20152016 and for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2016March 31, 2017 have used most of the Company’s liquid assets and the negative working capital has grown by approximately $.8 million from December 31, 2015 to September 30, 2016.  Consequently, there isassets. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. However, the negative working capital has declined by approximately $600,000 from December 31, 2016 to March 31, 2017.   The Company believes some portionraised additional cash of $1.1 million net of offering costs. from the sale of shares of common stock subsequent to December 31, 2016 through March 31, 2017 and an additional $250,000 from April 1, 2017 through the date of this filing.
The Company has settled three of the liabilities with employeesfive employee notes for $330,000 and warrants and paid the first installment of $94,000 in April 2017.

Revenue Recognition  
 
The Company derives its revenue primarily from the sale of medical products and supplies for the diagnosis and prevention of cancer. Product revenue is recognized when all four of the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; (2) delivery of the products has occurred or risk of loss transfers to the customer; (3) the selling price of the product is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company generates the majority of its revenue from the sale of inventory. For its German subsidiaries,certain sales, the Company and its customers agree in the sales contract that risk of loss and title transfer upon the Company packing the items for shipment, segregating the items packaged and notifying the customer that their items are ready for pickup. The Company records such sales at time of completed packaging and segregation of the items from general inventory and notification has been confirmed by the customer. The Company’s revenues are primarily concentrated in the United States, Europe, primarily in Germany and Poland, and China.
 
Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold and charged to the customers based on the contractual terms.
 

Inventories
 
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in first-outfirst in first out method (FIFO) and market is based generally on net realizable value.
Inventories consists of parts inventory purchased from outside vendors, raw materials used in the manufacturing of equipment; work in process and finished goods. Management reviews inventory on a regular basis and determines if inventory is still useable. A reserve is established for the estimated decrease in carrying value for obsolete or excess inventory. Once a reserve is established, it is considered a permanent adjustment to the cost basis of the obsolete or excess inventory.
 
Foreign Currency Translation
 
The accounts of the U.S. parent company are maintained in United States Dollar (“USD”). The functional currency of the Company’s German subsidiaries is the EURO (“EURO”). The accounts of the German subsidiaries were translated into USD in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ASC Topic 830, “Foreign Currency Matters.” In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 830, allrelevant accounting guidance. All assets and liabilities wereare translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet dates, stockholders’ equity was translated at the historical rates and statements of operations transactions wereare translated at the average exchange rate for each period. The resulting translation gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss as a component of stockholders’ equityequity.
 
Research and Development
 
All research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs consist of engineering, product development, testing, developing and validating the manufacturing process, and regulatory related costs.
 
Acquired In-Process Research and Development
 
Acquired in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) that the Company acquires through business combinations represents the fair value assigned to incomplete research projects which, at the time of acquisition, have not reached technological feasibility. The amounts are capitalized and are accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets, subject to impairment testing until completion or abandonment of the projects. Upon successful completion of each project, MEDITE will make a determination as to the then useful life of the intangible asset, generally determined by the period in which the substantial majority of the cash flows are expected to be generated, and begin amortization. The Company tests IPR&D for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if impairment indicators exist, by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the IPR&D intangible asset is less than its carrying amount. If the Company concludes it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying amount, a quantitative test that compares the fair value of the IPR&D intangible asset with its carrying value is performed. If the fair value is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized in operating results.
 
 
F-6
 
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Including Finite Lived Intangibles
At each balance sheet date or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, management of the Company evaluates the recoverability of such assets. An impairment loss is recognized if the amount of undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, in which case the asset is written down to fair value. The fair value of the asset is measured by either quoted market prices or the present value of estimated expected future cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with the risks involved. Unless events or circumstances have changed significantly, we generally do not re-test at year end assets acquired from a business combination in the year of acquisition.
 
Impairment of Indefinite Lived Intangible Assets Other Than Goodwill
 
The Company has the option first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, the Company concludes that it is not more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, then the entity is not required to take further action. However, if the Company concludes otherwise, then it is required to determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and perform the quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value with the carrying amount in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Codification Subtopic 350-30.relevant accounting guidance.
 
Goodwill
 
Goodwill is recognized for the excess of cost of an acquired entity over the amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination.  Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level (operating segment or one level below an operating segment) on an annual basis (December 31 for us) and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. These events or circumstances could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, operating performance indicators, competition, or sale or disposition of a significant portion of a reporting unit.
 
Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assignment of assets and liabilities to reporting units, assignment of goodwill to reporting units, and determination of the fair value of each reporting unit using a discounted cash flow methodology. This analysis requires significant judgments, including estimation of future cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term rate of growth for our business, estimation of the useful life over which cash flows will occur, and determination of our weighted average cost of capital.
 
The estimates used to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit change from year to year based on operating results, market conditions, and other factors. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and goodwill impairment for each reporting unit.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying value of accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and secured lines of credit and long-term debt approximate their respective fair values due to their short maturities.  The Company issued warrants during the period ended September 30, 2016. These were recognized at their fair value using Level 3 inputs.  We have not determined the fair value of the Notes Due to Employees or Advances – related parties.
Accounting standards define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). We measure our assets and liabilities using inputs from the following three levels of the fair value hierarchy:
Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access at the measurement date.
F-7
Level 2 inputs include 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, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).
Level 3 includes unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about what factors market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. We develop these inputs based on the best information available, including our own data.
Net Loss Per Share
 
Basic loss per share is calculated based on the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares. Diluted loss per share is calculated based on the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares, using the treasury stock method and the if-converted method. MEDITE’s calculation of diluted net loss per share excludes potential common shares as of September 30,March 31, 2017 and 2016 and 2015 as the effect would be anti-dilutive (i.e. would reduce the loss per share).
 
 In accordance with SEC Accounting Series Release 280, theThe Company computes its loss applicable to common stock holders by subtracting dividends on preferred stock, including undeclared or unpaid dividends if cumulative, from its reported net loss and reports the same on the face of itsthe condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In May 2016,2014, the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue with Contracts from Customers.” ASU 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts2014-09 supersedes the current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The ASU introduces a five-step model to achieve its core principal of the entity recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. The updated guidance is effective for public entities for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 with Customers (Topic 606), Narrow Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients.” The amendments in ASU 2016-12 affect only the narrow aspects of Topic 606 that are outlined in ASU 2016-12. The effective date and transition requirementsearly adoption permitted for the amendments in this Update are the same as the effective date and transition requirements of Update 2014-09, which is discussed below.annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the impact of the updated guidance on its consolidated financial statements
 In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing.” The amendments in this Update affect entities with transactions included within the scope of Topic 606. The scope of that Topic includes entities that enter into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services (that are an output of the entity’s ordinary activities) in exchange for consideration. The effective date and transition requirements for the amendments in this Update are the same as the effective date and transition requirements of Update 2014-09, which is discussed below. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the updated guidance on itsCompany’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.”  The areas for simplification in this Update involve several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The updated guidance is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the updated guidance, but the Company does not believe that the adoption ofhas adopted ASU 2016-09 will have a significantand it did not impact on its consolidated financial statements.
 
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases” (“ASU 2016-02”). The core principle of ASU 2016-02 is that an entity should recognize on its balance sheet assets and liabilities arising from a lease. In accordance with that principle, ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset for the lease term. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will depend on the lease classification as a finance or operating lease. This new accounting guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (i.e., calendar years beginning on January 1, 2019), including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-17 (ASU 2015-17) “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes”.  ASU 2015-17 simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by eliminating the separate classification of deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts in the consolidated balance sheet statement of financial position. The amendments in the update require that all deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in the consolidated balance sheet. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein and may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to all periods presented. Early adoption is permitted. We early adopted this standard in the fourth quarter of 2015 on a retrospective basis.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”. The amendments require an entity to measure in scope inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using LIFO or the retail inventory method. The amendments do not apply to inventory that is measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method. The amendments apply to all other inventory, which includes inventory that is measured using first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost. The Company does not expect this amendment to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03 - “Interest Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” (“ASU No. 2015-03”), which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. ASU No. 2015-03 requires an entity to present such costs on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of the costs is reported as interest expense. The standard’s core principle is that debt issuance costs related to a note are reflected in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the face amount of that note and amortization of debt issuance costs is reported in interest expense. ASU No. 2015-032015-11 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2016. The Company adopted this accounting pronouncement during the three months ended March 31, 2017 with no material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the definition of a business. The amendments in this Update clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of businesses. The guidance in this update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015,2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is allowed for all entities for financial statements that have not been previously issued. Entities would apply the new guidance retrospectively to all prior periods (i.e., the balance sheet for each period is adjusted).  The Company adopted this ASU No. 2015-03 in its December 31, 2015 consolidated financial statements.  Accordingly, $20,000 of debt issuance costs have been presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability as of December 31, 2015. There were no debt issuance costs during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
 
In August 2014,January 2017, the FASB also issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40)2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and other (Topic 350): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. The amendments in ASU 2014-15 are intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures.Simplifying the test for goodwill impairment. The amendments in this standard areUpdate remove the second step of the current goodwill impairment test. An entity will apply a one-step quantitative test and record the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The new guidance does not amend the optional qualitative assessment of goodwill impairment. This guidance is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periodsimpairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. We are evaluating the effect, if any; adoption of ASU No. 2014-15 will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.2019.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue with Contracts from Customers.” ASU 2014-09 supersedes the current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The ASU introduces a five-step model to achieve its core principal of the entity recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. The updated guidance is effective for public entities for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017.  Early adoption is permitted for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the updated guidance on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Overview of MEDITE Cancer Diagnostics, Inc.
 
MEDITE Cancer Diagnostics, Inc. (the “Company”, “it”, “we”, or “us”), formerly CytoCore, Inc., specializes in the marketing and selling of MEDITE core products (instruments and consumables), manufacturing, development manufacturing,of new solutions in histology and cytology and marketing of molecular biomarkers,biomarkers. These premium medical devices and consumables are for detection, risk assessment and diagnosis of cancerous and precancerous conditions and related diseases. Depending upon the type of cancer, segments within the current target market of approximately $5.8 billion are growing at annual rates between 10% and 30%. To use theThe well-established brand of MEDITE Cancer Diagnostics is well received and to haveremains a betterprofessional description of the Company’s business, the Board approved the name change to “MEDITE Cancer Diagnostics, Inc.” As a result, thebusiness. The Company’s trading symbol was changed tois “MDIT”.
 
In 20152016 and 20162017 we focused on implementation of several growth opportunities including enhanced distribution of core products through focused sales and distribution channel(s), newly developed and patent pending assays, new laboratory devices and several marketing projects like the Chinese standardization projects for histology and cytology.  The Company is optimistic about recent marketing efforts focusing on larger laboratory chains.chains and other important strategic relationships. The Company has 78approximately 80 employees in threefour countries, a distribution network to about 70 countries and a wide range of products for anatomic pathology, histology and cytology laboratories available for sale.
 
After the successful market entrance into China in 2014, the Company increased its revenueCompany’s revenues in this market toare approximately $1 million in 2015,$65,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to zero$185,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The Company has received $240,000 in 2014.orders for China which they believe they can complete partially in the second quarter and partially in the third quarter. The Company’s delayed financing during 2015 and 2016 and into 2017 has impacted the delivery of sales due to availability of raw materials, parts, and work in progress inventory and the needed investment in that inventory. The Company originally anticipated sales in 2016 of approximately $2 million with the assumption that the timing of the scheduled capital raise would happen earlier in the year. Due to the delay in the capital raise, the Company is revisingrevised its target to $1.3 million. Total sales for the nine monthsyear ended September 30,December 31, 2016 were approximately $980,000$1 million compared to $380,000$897,000 for the same period in 2015.  The Chinese market is growing quickly, and by 2016 the Company expects it will be theone of two largest marketmarkets for its products. By working with its Chinese distributor, UNIC Medical, the Company has successfully received China Food and Drug Administration (“CFDA”) approval for all MEDITE histology laboratory devices at the end of 2014, and for the Cytology device in 2015. The Company is working with UNIC Medicaland are anticipating increased sales team is selling MEDITE products in China with increasing volumes.in the third and fourth quarter of 2017.  Also, together with UNIC, we are part of a government supported project to standardize the histology laboratory process in China. UNIC Medical is using MEDITE equipment and consumables for processing, and developinglaunching new assays. UNIC has taken an active role in branding MEDITE Cancer Diagnostics in China. Medite is working through certain product rollout issues which have impacted its anticipated increase in sales.
 
 
On May 31, 2016, UNIC received CFDA approval as a Class I in vitro diagnostic reagent for MEDITE's "SureThin" cell preservation solution.  As China adaptsadopts Cytopathology standards across the country, the Company expects 'Liquid Based Cytology Tests (LBC)' will be used for the majority of Pap collections for cervical cancer screening. We are prepared to sell the complete SureThin products,product line, including the already approved Processor to this potential market of 485 million women between the ages of 16 and 64 years of age. Management anticipates launching the product in China by the third quarter of 2017 and in the U.S. by the fourth quarter of 2017.
 
The Company’s cytology product line revenue remained at about the same levels in Europe (non-Gyn and Gyn applications) during 2016 and 2017 related to a competitive threat that management believes has been alleviated. The Company is in the process of moving forward the submission of an application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for SureThin Gyn applications. Once approved we can compete with some of the dominant suppliers in this $600 million market and target major strategic lab partners. The impact of the gynecology segment SureThin solution in the US and China market will drive significant new revenue and gross margin improvement opportunities in the later part of 2017.
MEDITE is clearing certain hurdles in obtaining FDA clearance of its SureThin product offering for gyn use in the US. The product is attracting the interest in larger labs that will use both the SureThin non-gyn and gyn applications. The gyn clearance with the sale of the SureThin processor will encourage market growth the Management believes will provide sources for improved sales channels.
The developed and U.S. patented self-collection device SoftKit is targeting the growing POC & POP (point of care or point of people care) market. Growth in this area is due to consumer driven health care requirements and the necessity to support and address incremental patient population needs for screening and on-going diagnostic tests. SoftKit serves as just such a product, addressing this market requirement. SoftKit is planned to be sold through various marketing channels that serve the gynecology physician consumer health and emerging post-acute care as the influence of clinical labs are expanded. Initially the SoftKit is targeted at the uterine cancer/HPV screening market. The next phase of testing will include cervical screening. 
Management believes that 2017 developments, allows us to more fully leverage the products and biomarker solutions from CytoCore component of MEDITE. The first entry will be the introduction of SureCyte+ (fluorogenic) instant staining, offering tremendous lab efficiencies and enhanced patient care through the use of SureCyte+. SureCyte+ is the first of many new offering under the SureCyte brand.
MEDITE’s Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Product is non-invasive, easy, gentle, and highly sensitive, enabling young women between 20 and 45 years of age to obtain their individual breast cancer risk assessment. An automatic and gentle collection device for breast cells together with a newly developed assay is used to determine a woman’s risk to develop breast cancer.  Knowing the individual breast cancer risk will provide relief to a majority of young women who have no elevated risk of developing breast cancer. For those who have a higher risk, it enables them to monitor that risk closer for earlier treatment, if needed. The earlier a precancerous or cancerous situation is detected, the greater the chance for reducing the fatality rate for these conditions.  Product development of BreastPap continued in 2016, reflecting feedback from doctors’ test use of prototype units’ and doctorsdoctor’s office feedback to continuously improve the product prior to launching. During the third quarter, the Company initiated a co-operation with Leibnitz University of Hannover, Germany, on the final design and usability of the BreastPap. The project is scheduled to begin on February 15, 2017. The delay in market introduction is planned by management is due to additional quality assurance measures being performed by the Company .as well as insuring that US feedback from providers are considered. The Company’s BreastPap product is a risk assessment tool planned to detect “abnormal” cells contained inevaluate the women’s breast aspirant.   cancer risk on certain results based on the treatment.    
Upon detection of abnormal cells,receiving the results, women, based upon their physicians’ advice may be candidates for further diagnostic testing.
The developed and patent pending self-collection device SoftKit is targeting the growing POC & POP (point of care or point of people care) market. Growth in this area is due to consumer driven health care requirements and the necessity to support and address incremental patient population needs for screening and on-going diagnostic tests. SoftKit serves as just such a product, addressing this market requirement. SoftKit is planned to be sold through various marketing channels that serve the consumer health and emerging post-acute care as the influence of clinical labs are expanded.
The Company’s cytology product line, revenue grew in Europe (non-Gyn applications) during 2015 and 2016. The Company isBreatPap will undergo further customer testing in the processUS and EU markets. This product has been placed on hold and will be evaluated by Management, so they can focus their attention, and resources on their other product rollouts. Management plans on revisiting this Product by the end of preparing an application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for SureThin Gyn applications and once approved can compete with some of the dominant suppliers in this $600 million market.2017.
 
The Company brought several other innovative products closer to marketability during 2015, and continued during the first and second quarter of 2016 as listed above.  Also, in early 2015, the German priority patent for a fully automated system used in the histology lab, a “Lab-In-One” unit, was granted. This technology, if successfully accepted by the market, has the ability to change the competitive landscape within the industry.
 
During the first quarter of 2016, the Company opened a second German manufacturing facility with approximately 4,000 square feet in Nussloch. This facility is utilizing the local workforce utilizingand their experience for the specialized skills required for manufacturing of the newly developed and updated MicrotomesMicrotome product line and the newly developed Cryostat (instruments used for sectioning tissue biopsies).  During the third quarter 2016, the Company manufactured and delivered from order backlog 12 units. The Company began manufacturing the new Cryostat line during the thirdfirst quarter of 2017 and anticipates the first pre serial series to be available before the end of the second quarter. This enhanced microtome and cryostat production facility will allow MEDITE to meet the anticipated demand for these instruments as well as enhance its worldwide distribution channel through its suppliers including China.
 
The Company operates in one industry segment for cancer diagnostics instruments and consumables for histology and cytology laboratories.
 
Definition:Histology - Cancer diagnostics based on the structures of cells in tissues
 Cytology - Cancer diagnostics based on the structures of individual cells
 
CancerousCancers and precancerous conditions are defined in terms of structural abnormalities in cells. For this reason cytology is widely used for the detection of such conditions while histology is typically used for the confirmation, identification and characterization of the cellular abnormalities detected by cytology. Other diagnostics methods such as marker-based assays provide additional information that can supplement, but which cannot replace cytology and histology. The trend towards more personalized treatment of cancer increases the need for cytology, histology and assays for identifying and testing the best treatment alternatives. We believe that this segment will therefore be increasingly important for future development of strategies to fight the “cancer epidemic” (World Health Organization: World Cancer Report 2014), which expects approximatelyabout a 50%50 % increase in cancer cases worldwide within the next 20 years.
 
This segment sees a trend toward, and demand for, higher automation for more throughput in bigger laboratories, process standardization, digitalization of cell and tissue slides and computer aided diagnostic systems, while also looking for cost effective solutions. In the US the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is a national example for the industry. More people have health insurance and therefore can afford early cancer screening, while at the same time the payers for health care continue looking for cost reductions.
 
MEDITE acts as a one-stop-shop for histology (also known as anatomic pathology) laboratories either as part of a hospital, as part of a chain of laboratories or individually. It is one out of only four companies offering all equipment and consumables for these type of laboratories worldwide. The MEDITE Brandbrand stands for innovative and high quality products – most equipment made in Germany – and competitive pricing.
 
For the cytology market, MEDITE offers a wide range of consumable products and equipment; in particular for liquid-based-cytology which is an important tool in cancer screening and detection in the field of cervical, bladder, breast, lung and other cancer types. WeIt also developed an innovative, new type of easy to use standardized staining solutions, and a very innovative and effective early cancer detection marker-based assay.assays. These new developments are cost effective solutions able to replace more expensive competitive products, and therefore are also becoming the first choice for the growing demand in emerging countries.
 
All of the Company’s operations during the reporting period were conducted and managed within this segment, with management teams reporting directly to our Chief Executive and Operating Officers.Office. For information on revenues, profit or loss and total assets, among other financial data, attributable to our operations, see the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein.

Outlook
 
Due to promising innovative new products for cancer risk assessment and an increasing number of distributions contracts executed in the last two years, management believes the profitability and cash-flow of the business will grow and improve. However, significant on-going operating expenditures may be necessary to manufacture and market new and existing products to achieve the accelerated sales growth targets outlined in the Company’s business plan. To realize the planned growth potential, management will focus its efforts on 1) finishing1.) Finishing and gaining approval for the products currently under development and 2) increasing2.) Increase direct sales in the United SatesU.S. and continuingcontinue to expand Chinese market sales by broadening the Company’s collaborations with the local distributor UNIC. We also will work on continuously optimizing manufacturing costcapacity to increase our gross margin. Implementation of our plans will be contingent upon securing substantial additional debt and/or equity financing. If we arethe Company is unable to obtain additional capital or generate profitable sales revenues, we may be required to curtail product development and other activities. The condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Currently, the Company’s sales primarily are generated in Euro currency. While in 2016 the average USD/Euro exchange rate was 1.10682 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to 1.0655 in and March 31, 2017 a decrease of 0.04132, however the conversion rate at December 31, 2016 was 1.05204 and 1.0682 at March 31, 2017. MEDITE’s sales in USD were lower on a year over year basis as approximately 80% of our sales currently occurs in Euros. The Company is working to lessen the impact of the Euro’s decline versus the dollar by increasing the percentage of overall product sales in the U.S. and other countries such as China whose currency is not pegged to the Euro. 
 
The Company believes the combination of MEDITE Enterprise, Inc. with MEDITE Cancer Diagnostics, Inc.(“Cancer Diagnostics”),CytoCore, Inc. will expedite the development and marketability of Cancer Diagnostic’sCytoCore’s cytology products which include collection devices, image analysis software, special stains and immuno-assays. Currently, the recent launch of new products, the positive impact from several new initiatives, and some recently executed distribution contracts in the United States,U.S., Europe and China are some primary positive factors assisting growth.

Research and development expenses are an important part of our business to keep our existing products competitive, and to develop new innovative solutions with interesting market potential that will help us grow future revenues. These expenses include research work for cancer marker consumables and developing work, including engineering and industrial design, for histology and cytology laboratories worldwide. Major parts of these expenses are payroll-related costs for in-house scientific research, mechanical and electrical engineering, instrument related software development staff, prototype expenses and material purchased for R&D.

Further, a discount on the May 25, 2016 secured promissory notes in the amount of $31 was amortized into interest expense during the three months ended September 30, 2016. The warrant expense is considered a non-cash settlement on the defaulted Notes.   The effect of the interest, and fair value of the warrants on the secured promissory notes was an effective yield of 68% for the three months ended September 30, 2016. 
Net Loss

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Due to promising new products and distributions contracts executed in the last two years and management believeschanges with increased focus on the various sales channels and manufacturing and quality systems, management anticipates the profitability and cash flow of the business will grow and improve. However, significant on-going operating expenditures may be necessary to manufacture and market new and existing products to achieve the accelerated sales growth targets outlined in the Company’s business plan. To realize the planned growth potential management will focus its efforts on 1)1.) finishing and gaining approval for the products currently under development and 2) increasing2.) increase direct sales in the USA and continuingcontinue to expand Chinese market sales by broadening the Company’s collaborations with the local distributor UNIC. We also will work on continuously optimizing manufacturing cost to increase our gross margin.
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2017, we used net cash in operations of approximately $645 compared to $559 for the same period in 2016. During 2017, cash used in operations consisted of loss from operations, offset by non-cash transactions for warrants issued related to secured promissory notes. During 2016, cash used in operations consisted of loss from operations, offset by non-cash transactions for warrants issued related to secured promissory notes.
For the three months ended March 31, 2017, net cash used in investing activities were $16 compared to $94 for the same period in 2016.  The improvement in this activity relates to lower purchases of equipment in 2017 compared to 2016.
For the three months ended March 31, 2017, financing activities provided $914 compared $59 used in financing activities for the same period in 2016. The Company sold 2.4 million shares of common stock for $1.1 million during the first quarter of 2017, net of $83 of issuance costs.
The Company must contemplate continuation as a going concern. This contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  At March 31, 2017, the Company’s cash balance was $269 and its operating losses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016, have used most of the Company’s liquid assets. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. However working capital has improved by approximately $600 from December 31, 2016. The Company raised additional cash of $250 from the sale of equity subsequent to April 1, 2017 through the date of this filing.
The Company has settled three of the five employee notes for $330 and warrants. In April 2017 the Company paid $94 for the first installment and issued warrants to purchase 1,029,734 shares of common stock at $0.50, for a period of 5 years.
During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company paid $167 of secured promissory notes, reducing the balance to $483. The Company received notice that one noteholder will convert $50 into 100,000 shares of common stock at $0.50. Management believes that the remainder of the balance will be settled in some combination of cash and stock.
              Management is actively seeking additional equity financing contemplated in the $4.25 million stock purchase agreement. The Company has negotiated with certain parties whose obligations are due in the next twelve months to extend payment terms beyond one year. One lender with an outstanding balance of $801 has stated that they will not be able to refinance the debt. The default rate of interest will increase three percent.
              Accrued salaries, vacation and related expenses at March 31, 2017, includes amounts owed to the former CFO of approximately $1.1 million. See further discussion regarding the legal proceedings with the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer. Also included in accrued salaries, vacation and related expenses are amounts owed to both the Michaela and Michael Ott totaling approximately $152.  Included in advances – related parties are amounts owed to the Company’s former CFO $50 at March 31, 2017.
The Company owes Ms. Ott, 91 Euros, ($97 as March 31, 2017). The Company has established a payment plan whereby the balances owed will be repaid beginning on October 31, 2017, extending between 18 and 24 months.
 
Implementation of our plans will be contingent upon securing substantial additional debt and/or equity financing. If we are unable to obtain additional capital or generate an increase in profitable sales revenues, we may be required to curtail product development and other activities. At September 30, 2016, the Company had approximately, $1.9 million of accrued liabilities which represents unpaid wages and vacation benefits. At December 31, 2015, the Company refinanced $927,000 of these liabilities through notes due to employees which are payable over a three year period and are convertible into equity at a discount defined in the agreement.   At September 30, 2016, the Company was in default on certain notes with employees due to missed monthly payments. The Company has classified all notes, except one note in default as short-term on the Condensed Balance Sheets.  Included in accounts payable and accrued expenses are accrued salaries and benefit expenses due to our former Chief Financial Officer, Robert F. McCullough, Jr. of $1 million. Also, $133,000 is due to Michaela Ott, currently our COO, and Michael Ott, currently our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of two of our wholly owned subsidiaries, for unpaid wages and car allowance and vacation. Michaela Ott has also loaned $102,000 to the Company to be repaid by December 31, 2016. The Company believes executives and employees will work with the Company to ease financial strains emanating from amounts currently due and payable. The Company believes some portion of these liabilities will be settled in the common stock of the Company.
The current level of working capital shortfalls has been partially financed by additional advances on our credit lines with a German bank and from recently issued secured promissory notes.   In order to continue growing the business, the Company is planning to raise additional funds through the sale of equity securities or convertible debt.   The Company is also investigating additional bank financing with European institutions which will increase the availability against current collateral of approximately $5 million.  The Company’s security agreement with its lender has provided borrowings of 35% of our collateralized assets.  The Notes discussed above matured on June 30, 2016 and were not repaid.  Therefore, the Notes were in default as of April 1, 2016.  The Company agreedcontinues to pay the Purchasers 10% of the principal balance of the Notes in warrants for the months of April through September 2016 and by the date of this filing, October and November 2016.  Therefore, for the months of April through September 2016, the Company issued 300,000 warrants and recorded interest expense related to the issuance of these warrants, attributable to the secured promissory notes of approximately $105,000. On May 25, 2016, the Company issued $150,000 of additional promissory notes. The May Notes were matured on August 25, 2016. The Company issued warrants for the months of August and September consistent with the terms of the Notes discussed above and by the date of this filing, October 2016 warrants. The Company anticipates that some of the noteholders will convert their matured notes into convertible debt or equity which the company may offer near term. The Company is investigating various sources of debt and equity to assist them in their growth plans andseek to refinance their maturingthis debt obligations. to provide additional liquidity.
 
On May 25, 2016, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “May Purchase Agreement”) with two (2) individual accredited investors  (collectively the “May Purchasers”), pursuantManagement continues to which the Company agreed to issue to the May Purchasers secured promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $150,000 (the “Note(s)”)expand its product offerings and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate amount of 150,000 shares of the common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “May Warrant(s)”). The Notes mature on the earlier of the third (3rd ) month anniversary date following the Closing Date, as defined in the Note, or the third (3rd ) business day following the Company’s receipt of funds exceeding one million dollars ($1,000,000) from an equity or debt financing, not including the financing contemplated under the May Purchase Agreement. The Notes may be converted into Units issued pursuant to the Company’s private financing of up to $5,000,000 (the “Follow On Offering”) Units at a price of $.80/Unit (the “Units”) consisting of: (i) a  2 year unsecured convertible note, which converts into shares of common stock at an initial conversion price of $.80 per sharehas also expanded its sales and (ii) a warrant to purchase one half additional share of common stock, with an initial exercise price equal to $.80 per share (the “Follow On Warrant”), in accordance with Article 2 set forth in the Notes. On November 2, 2016, the Company filed a Form D Notice of Exempt Offering of Securities for up to $3,000,000. The Company received $306,000, as an initial funding of this offering at $0.50 a share, 613,830 shares of common stock issued The offering is subject to a up to 7.5% commission paid to their broker/dealers totaling $22,484 plus warrants of 7.5% coverage at $0.50 conversion price per share, with a term of 5 years. The Company has an agreement with one broker/dealer to provide 7% commission paid in cash to them plus warrants of 50% coverage at $0.50 conversion price per share, with a term of 5 years.distribution channels during 2017.
 
In summary, the Company is working on extending its payment terms on employee notes, settling with its former CFO, raising additional equity and refinancing debt and other noteholders.  In addition, the Company has slowed the pace of some of their new product rollouts.  If management is unsuccessful in obtaining new forms of debt orcompleting its equity financing, they will begin negotiating with some of their major vendors and lenders to extend the terms of their debt and also evaluate certain expenses that have been implemented for the Company’s growth strategy.    However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in these efforts. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. As a result
In summary, management believes current working capital is sufficient to fund current operations. The Company intends to continue growing using current working capital, however the growth of all these factors and conditionsthe Company could be slowed down if we are unable to obtain debt and/or equity financing.  Consequently, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
As of September 30, 2016,March 31, 2017, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partners, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As such, we are not materially exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships.

On December 31, 2015, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “2015 Purchase Agreement”) with seven (7) individual accredited investors, one which serves on the Company’s Board of Directors and is the chairman of the Company’s Audit Committee  (collectively the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to the Purchasers secured promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000 with interest accruing at an annual rate of 15% (the “Note(s)”) and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate amount of 250,000 shares of the common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Warrant(s)”). See Note 8 for further discussion on warrants issued on the Notes.   The Notes matured on March 31, 2016 and were not repaid. Therefore, the Notes were in default on April 1, 2016.  The Company agreed to pay the Purchasers 10% of the principal balance of the Notes in warrants until the principal balance is repaid. See Note 8 for further discussion on warrants issued on the Notes.  The Notes are secured by the Company’s accounts receivable and inventories held in the United States.
On May 25, 2016, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “May Purchase Agreement”) with two (2) individual accredited investors, one of which who serves on the Company’s  Board of Directors (collectively the “May Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to the May Purchasers secured promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $150,000 (the “May Note(s)”) with an interest rate of 15% and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate amount of 150,000 shares of the common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “May Warrant(s)”). The Notes mature on the earlier of the third (3rd) month anniversary date following the Closing Date or August 25, 2016 and were not repaid. The May Notes may be converted into Units issued pursuant to the Company’s private financing of up to $5,000,000 (the “Follow On Offering”) Units at a price of $.80/Unit (the “Units”) consisting of: (i) a  2 year unsecured convertible note, which converts into shares of common stock at an initial conversion price of $.80 per share and (ii) a warrant to purchase one half additional share of common stock, with an initial exercise price equal to $.80 per share (the “Follow On Warrants”).
In November 2015 and February 2016, the Company entered into promissory notes totaling $927,000 with certain employees to repay wages earned prior to December 31, 2014 not paid (“Notes Due to Employees").  The Notes Due to Employees are to be paid monthly through September 2019, with no interest due on the outstanding balances.  The monthly amounts increase over the payment term.  The amounts due become immediately due and payable if payments are more than ten days late either one or two consecutive months as defined in the agreement with the employee.  At September 30, 2016, all Notes Due to Employees are in default and due on demand, except one. Therefore, the Notes Due to Employees in default are presented as current in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  Certain employees may convert any of the amounts owed during the duration of the note to equity at a discounted price as defined in the agreement. The Company is currently negotiating with the employees whose notes are in default to extend payment terms.
 
ItemItem 3.          Defaults upon Senior Securities.
On January 10, 2017, the Board of Directors agreed to renegotiate the terms of the 2015 Notes and 2016 Notes (collectively the “Notes”) with the consent of the 2015 Purchasers and 2016 Purchasers (collectively the “Note Holders”), which was obtained on January 16, 2017, as follows:
The Note Holders agreed to waive the defaults and extend the Notes for the earlier of six months or the receipt of a $3,000,000 investment into the Company pursuant to a future private equity offering, whichever occurs first (the “Extension”).
Upon the Company’s receipt of the first $1,000,000 invested (including the capital raised to date in a prior private equity offering), the Note Holders will be repaid one third of their principal investment. On March 31, 2017, the Company paid approximately $167,000 of the outstanding Notes.
Upon the Company’s receipt of the second and third $1,000,000, respectively, the Note Holders will be repaid one third of their principal investment on each $1,000,000 raised.
The exercise price on the Warrants were adjusted from $0.80 to $0.50.
If the Notes are not paid back in full on the six month extension date, the Note Holders will each receive additional warrants equal to 50% of their respective investments, exercisable at $0.50, as a penalty. 
The interest payments on the Notes will continue to accrue on the remaining balance of the unpaid Notes, and the additional warrants of 10% of the amount of Notes outstanding, previously penalty warrants, shall continue to accrue pursuant to the Notes.
The Note Holders will have the option to convert their Notes to equity either before or at the six month extension end date into units offered in any future private equity offering of the Company.
