Notes to Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements
(unaudited)
March 31, 2015
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of CTT Pharmaceutical Holdings, Inc. (Formerly, “Mindesta Inc.”), (the “Company”, or “Mindesta”), for the period ended March 31, 2015 and the notes thereto (the “Financial Statements”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been presented in US dollars. The Financial Statements include the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary CTT Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“CTT Pharma”) (Note 2b). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three month period ended March 31, 2015 and the notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company's management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
The Company specializes in the development of oral drug delivery systems for pain management and treatment. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has never generated cash flow from operations and is unlikely to generate cash flows from operations in the immediate or foreseeable future. For the period ended March 31, 2015, the Company has incurred a net loss before other items of $ 337,052 (2014 - $1,673), negative cash flows from operations of $ 39,652 (2014 - $330) and has had no sources of revenue. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional capital to pay expenses and carry out any further product development, market program, market acceptance of its products and achieving profitability. The Company will require significant financing to continue its operations and fund any further activities. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and the classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company's fiscal period-end is December 31.
NOTE 2 – ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a)
Organization
Mindesta, Inc. was incorporated on November 6, 1996, as Winchester Mining Corporation in the State of Delaware. Effective July 26, 2011, the Company changed its name to “Mindesta Inc.” The Company trades on the OTC under the symbol MDST.
(b)
Reverse Acquisition and Recapitalization
On September 9, 2015 , Mindesta entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “ Exchange Agreement”) with CTT Pharmaceuticals, Inc., f/k/a Fenwafe Inc., an entity organized under the Canadian Corporations Business Act in March 2007 and the shareholders of CTT Pharma whereby Mindesta acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of CTT Pharma in consideration for the issuance of 14,918,329 shares of Mindesta common stock.
The 14,073,895 restricted shares of Mindesta common stock issued to former CTT Pharma stockholders and the 844,434 shares of Mindesta restricted shares issued at closing represent approximately 80% of the then issued and outstanding common stock of Mindesta.
As a result of the transactions effected by the Exchange Agreement, at closing CTT Pharma became a wholly owned subsidiary of Mindesta and Mindesta has abandoned all of its previous business operations with the business of CTT Pharma now being Mindesta’s sole business. CTT Pharma is a development stage company with limited operations to date focused on developing an oral delivery system of medication contained on a disposable film.

March 31, 2015
The Exchange Agreement was accounted for as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization of the Company and as a result, the consolidated financial statements of the Company (the legal acquirer) are, in substance, those of CTT Pharma (the accounting acquirer), with the assets and liabilities, and expenses of the Company being included effective from the date of the Exchange Agreement. As the Exchange Agreement was accounted for as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization, there was no gain or loss recognized on the transaction. The transaction is in substance a capital transaction, rather than a business combination, thus no goodwill or other intangible assets have been recorded. The significant components of the transaction are as follows:
| | | | |
Assets acquired | | $ | 1,867 | |
Liabilities assumed | | | (31,767 | ) |
Net | | $ | (29,900 | ) |
The historical financial statements for periods prior to the Exchange Agreement are those of CTT Pharma, except that the equity section and earnings per share have been retroactively restated to reflect the Exchange Agreement. As a result of the Exchange Agreement, the Company has ceased mineral exploration and focuses on oral drug delivery systems (note 1).
(c)
Significant Accounting Policies
i)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original or remaining maturity of less than three months at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include balances with banks and operating line of credit.
ii)
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, title passes to the customer, typically upon delivery, and when collection of the fixed or determinable selling price is reasonably assured.
iii)
Functional and Presentation Currency
The functional currency of CTT Pharma is the Canadian Dollar and the functional currency of Mindesta is the United States Dollar. The reporting currency is the United States Dollar.The financial statements of the CTT Pharma are translated to United States dollars in accordance with ASC 830 using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for revenues and expenses. Translation gains (losses) are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of stockholders’ equity.
iv)
Comprehensive Income
Other comprehensive income refers to revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under generally accepted accounting principles are included in comprehensive income, but are excluded from net income as these amounts are recorded directly as an adjustment to stockholders’ equity. Comprehensive income relates to the effects of translation from CTT Pharma’s functional currency of the Canadian Dollar to the presentation currency of the United States Dollar.
v)
Share Capital
Proceeds from share issuance net of share issuance costs are recorded at the amount paid. Share capital issued for non-monetary consideration is recorded at the fair market value of the shares on the date the shares are issued.

vi)
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, and diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period adjusted for all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, except in cases where the effect of the common stock equivalents would be antidilutive. There were no potentially dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding at March 31, 2015 or 2014.
vii)
Financial Instruments
The fair market value of the Company’s financial instruments comprising cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and due to shareholder were estimated to approximate their carrying values due to immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions which do not exceed federally insured amounts. The Company has not experienced any material losses in such accounts.
The Company is not exposed to any foreign exchange or interest rate risk.
viii)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
We measure and disclose certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
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.
We utilize the active market approach to measure fair value for our financial assets and liabilities. We report separately each class of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and include assets and liabilities that are disclosed but not recorded at fair value in the fair value hierarchy.
The fair values of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and due to shareholder for all periods presented approximate their respective carrying amounts due to the short term nature of these financial instruments.
The fair value of the liability to issue common shares is calculated based on the published closing stock price of Mindesta at March 31, 2015.

ix)
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance so that the assets are recognized only to the extent that when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized.
Per FASB ASC 740 “Income taxes” under the liability method, it is the Company’s policy to provide for uncertain tax positions and the related interest and penalties based upon management’s assessment of whether a tax benefit is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. At March 31, 2015, the Company believes it has appropriately accounted for any unrecognized tax benefits. To the extent the Company prevails in matters for which a liability for an unrecognized benefit is established or is required to pay amounts in excess of the liability, the Company’s effective tax rate in a given financial statement period may be affected. Interest and penalties associated with the Company’s tax positions are recorded as Interest Expense.
x)
Research Costs
Research costs are expensed in the period incurred. The Company expenses development costs in the period incurred, except when it is determined that the costs meet United States GAAP criteria for deferral and amortization. Deferred development costs, if any, will be amortized on straight-line basis over the expected useful life of the underlying product.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Significant estimates made by management in the accompanying financial statements include the valuation of deferred tax assets, and estimation of market rates of interest imputed on non-interest bearing shareholder loans.

Recently Adopted and Future Accounting Pronouncements
i)
ASU 2014-05
In March 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-05, “Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830); Parents Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity.” This guidance applies to the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a business (other than a sale of substance real estate or conveyance of oil and gas, mineral rights) within a foreign entity. ASU No. 2014-05 is effective prospectively for fiscal periods (and interim reporting periods with those periods) beginning after December 15, 2014. The adoption of ASU 2014-05 did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

ii)
ASU 2014-11
In July 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-11, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or Tax Credit Carryforward Exits.” The FASB’s objective in issuing this ASU is to eliminate diversity in practice resulting from a lack of guidance on this topic in current U.S. GAAP. This ASU applies to all entities with unrecognized tax benefits that also have tax loss or tax credit carryforwards in the same tax jurisdiction as of the reporting date. ASU No. 2014-11 is effective for public entities for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those periods. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist as of the effective date. Entities may choose to apply the amendments retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented. The adoption of ASU 2014-05 did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
iii)
ASU 2015-08
In April 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-08, “Discontinued Operations”. ASC guidance was issued related to discontinued operations which changed the criteria for determining which disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and modified related disclosure requirements. The updated guidance requires an entity to only classify discontinued operations due to a major strategic shift or a major effect on an entity’s operations in the financial statements. The updated guidance will also require additional disclosures relating to discontinued operations. The update is effective prospectively for the Company’s fiscal period beginning January 1, 2015. Early application is permitted. The Company does not expect the updated guidance to have an impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows
iv)
ASU 2015-12
In June 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-12, “Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period”. ASC guidance was issued to update the guidance on performance stock awards. The guidance requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period is treated as a performance condition. This standard is effective for the Company’s fiscal period beginning January 1, 2016. Early application is permitted. The Company does not expect the updated guidance to have a material impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
iv)
ASU 2015-15
In August 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern”. ASC guidance was issued that explicitly requires management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. This standard is effective for the Company’s fiscal period ending December 31, 2017, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The Company does not expect the updated guidance to have a material impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
NOTE 3 – PREPAID EXPENSES
During the year ended December 31, 2014 the Company entered into various consulting agreements for services to be rendered over 1 to 2 periods. In consideration for the consultants’ services the Company has agreed to issue 1,812,500 common shares valued at $1,806,250 based on the closing stock price of the Company on the date of the agreements, and recorded this as prepaid expense. As at March 31, 2015, $473,151had been expensed. Refer to Note 4D.

NOTE 4 – STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY
A.
COMMON STOCK
Effective as of January 1, 2015 each share of common stock of the Corporation issues and outstanding will be subject to a 1:10 reverse stock split, with all fractional shares being rounded up to the nearest whole share. All stockholders’ data has been retro-actively adjusted to reflect this stock split in both current period and comparative figures. The number of common shares outstanding at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 would be as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Number | | | Par Value $ | | | Additional Paid-in Capital $ | |
Outstanding at December 31, 2014 | | | 19,506,802 | | | | 1,951 | | | | 145,729 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Outstanding at March 31, 2015 | | | 19,506,802 | | | | 1,951 | | | | 145,729 | |
On October 1, 2014 the board of directors approved a resolution to increase the authorized capital of the Company from 200,000,000 common shares to 300,000,000 common shares.
B.
STOCK OPTIONS
On October 17, 2014, the Company granted stock options to purchase 1,350,000 common shares at a price of $0.15 per share until December 31, 2017. Half of the options vested immediately with the remaining options vesting over a one period or two period term. The fair value of the option grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: expected volatility of 390% - 396%; risk-free interest rate of 1.10% - 1.44%; and an expected term of 3.21 periods.
There were 1,415,000 options outstanding and 836,429 exercisable at March 31, 2015 (2014 – 1,415,000 outstanding and 740,000 exercisable).
The weighted average remaining contractual term of options outstanding as at March 31, 2015 was 2.69 years (December 31, 2014 – 3 years).
The Company recognized $43,650 of stock compensation expense for the period ending March 31, 2015 (Three Months Ended March 31, 2014 - $nil).
C.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
The basic and fully-diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding was as follows:
| | | | |
For the three months ended: | | | |
March 31, 2015 | | | 19,506,802 | |
March 31, 2014 | | | 14,918,329 | |
For the periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the inclusion of common stock equivalents in the calculation of the weighted average number of shares is anti-dilutive.

COMMON SHARES TO BE ISSUED
During the year ended December 31, 2014 the Company entered into various consulting agreements for services to be rendered over 1 to 2 periods. In consideration for the consultants’ services the Company has agreed to issue 1,812,500 common shares valued at $1,806,250 based on the closing stock price of the Company on the date of the agreements, and recorded this as prepaid expense. As at March 31, 2015, $473,151had been expensed.
The Company has not yet issued the common shares and as such has reflected this commitment to issue fully vested non-forfeitable common shares as common shares to be issued.
NOTE 5 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
| | | | | | | | |
| | As at March 31, 2015 | | | As at December 31, 2014 | |
| | | | | | |
Due to shareholders | | $ | 85,790 | | | $ | 87,240 | |
Due to related party | | | 90,000 | | | | 60,000 | |
| | $ | 175,790 | | | $ | 147,240 | |
The Company has recorded obligations to its shareholders that are non-interest bearing or bear interest rates below equivalent market rates. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company has recorded additional interest expense of $ 4,306 (Three months ended March 31, 2014 - $907) to reflect the benefit received from the shareholder for these non-interest bearing or low interest loans, using an estimated market rate of interest of 20%.
Included in due to related parties is a balance of $90,000 related to management fees payable to the Company’s President (December 31, 2014 - $60,000). Management fees accrued to the Company’s President during the period ended March 31, 2015 amounted to $30,000 (Three months ended March 31, 2014 - $Nil).
NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company has been named in a lawsuit filed by Windale Properties in the amount of CDN$19,781. The claim is the result of termination of leased premises in Oakville, Ontario prior to expiry of the lease. In 2009 a judgment of CDN$24,908 with annual interest of 3% was issued against the Company. No amount has been accrued as no action has been undertaken since 2009 to enforce the judgment.
NOTE 7 – RESTATEMENT OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company determined that there had been an error in its accounting for common shares to be issued for services contained in its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on April 10, 2014. The Company determined that the common shares to be issued for services should have been presented in stockholders’ equity instead as a liability, as the contracts granted a fully vested, non-forfeitable right to common shares as at the date of the contracts. A restatement adjustment was made to correct the error by increasing Common shares to be issued by $1,806,250, decreasing Liability to issue common shares by $906,250, and decreasing Gain on contracts settled through shares by $900,000.
As noted above there was a stock split announced which requires a retro-active adjustment. This has also been reflected in the restated consolidated financial statements for both current period as well as the comparative figures.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
Our wholly owned subsidiary CTT Pharmaceutical Holdings (“CTT”) specializes in drug delivery systems technology within the pharmaceutical industry. CTT Pharma’s focus is fast dissolving drug delivery systems. The company’s revolutionary technology platform includes the development of advanced oral delivery thin wafers infused with both natural and/or synthetic cannabis extracts (THC, annabinoids, Terpenes) to deliver treatment as an alternate to smoking and ingestion.
The wafer is an orally administrable paper-thin polymer films used as a carrier for pharmaceutical agents. The wafer rapidly dissolves to release the pharmaceutical agent as soon as it comes in contact with saliva, thus obviating the need for water during administration. This attribute makes the wafer highly attractive for pediatric and geriatric patients due to the difficulty in swallowing conventional tablets and capsules.
It is anticipated that CTT Pharma will develop a cannabis based wafer formulated for pain relief and the side effects of cancer treatment. While management has broad discretion as to the Wafer’s formulation, we believe that delivery of cannabis extract represents a unique opportunity in a niche market. The Wafer is a safer, faster delivery system which eliminates the unpleasant effect of rolling and smoking marijuana cigarettes. However, regulatory compliance and testing for a new product delivery system as well as issues surrounding the use of cannabis creates a significant financial burden.
OUR PLAN OF OPERATIONS
We will need a significant infusion of capital, whether in the form of debt or equity financing to implement our business plan. We have no commitment for additional funding. We have budgeted $600,000 in operating costs for the next year and $1,880,000 for the second year. Without this capital infusion, it is highly unlikely that we will be able to fully implement our business plan.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014
We did not generate any revenues during these periods.
For the three months ended March 31, 2015 we incurred a Net Loss of $(337,052) and a comprehensive loss of $(333,682) as a result of a foreign exchange gain of $3,370. Our principal costs during this period included consulting fees totaling $168,059, investor relations totaling $124,269 and general and administrative totaling $34,882. We did not have operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and had nominal expenses. Our Net Loss for this period totaled $(1,673). Our Net Loss per share was $(0.02) for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and our Net Loss was $(0.01) in 2014.
Except for our officers and directors, as of March 31, 2015 we had no full time employees. We do have two part time employees. We anticipate adding additional employees, when adequate funds are available, and will continue using independent contractors, consultants, attorneys and accountants as necessary, to complement services rendered by our employees.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.
Current assets at March 31, 2015 as compared to December 31, 2014 were $1,042,002 as compared to $1,049,734, representing a decline of less that 1%. The decline in our current assets is directly attributable to a decline in our cash position from $81,179 to $73,447. Total assets at March 31, 2015 were $1,418,850 as compared to $1,662,370 on December 31, 2014 representing a decline of approximately 15%. This decline is directly attributable to a reduction in our prepaid expenses from $612,636 to $376,848.
At March 31, 2015 our current liabilities totaled $211,696 as compared to $169,490 at December 31, 2014, representing an increase of approximately 25%. Accounts payable at March 31, 2015 totaled $35,906 and related party obligations totaling $175,790 as compared to $22,250 and $147,240 at December 31, 2014.
We have a working capital surplus at March 31, 2015 of $830,306 as compared to a working capital surplus of $880,244at December 31, 2014.
14
In our previously filed financial statements, we recorded a liability to issue stock. This has now been reported as a component of the Company’s Stockholders’ equity.
Going Concern Consideration
The Company specializes in the development of oral drug delivery systems for pain management and treatment. At March 31, 2015 the Company has a retained deficit of $(1,204,414) and total stockholders’ equity of $1,207,154. This compares with a retained deficit of $(867,362) and total Stockholders’ equity of $1,492,880. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional capital to pay expenses and carry out any further product development, market program, market acceptance of its products and achieving profitability. The Company will require significant financing to continue its operations and fund any further activities.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We are not currently a party to, or otherwise involved with, any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk.
We hold cash balances in both U.S. and Canadian dollars. We transact most of our financing in U.S. dollars and operational business in Canadian dollars. Some of our operational expenses denominated in Canadian dollars include building costs, labor costs and materials and supplies. As a result, currency exchange fluctuations may impact our operating costs. We do not manage our foreign currency exchange rate risk through the use of financial or derivative instruments, forward contracts or hedging activities.
In general, we do not believe that any weakening or strengthening of the U.S. dollar as compared to the Canadian dollar will have a positive or adverse material effect on our results of operations.
Interest Rate Risk
Our investment policy for our cash and cash equivalents is focused on the preservation of capital and supporting our liquidity requirements. We do not use interest rate derivative instruments to manage exposure to interest rate changes. We do not believe that interest rate fluctuations will have any effect on our results of operations.
Cyber-security Risk
We do not believe that we are subject to any undue cyber-security risk that may have an adverse material effect on our results of operations.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our President & Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) and determined that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The evaluation considered the procedures designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and communicated to our management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(a) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(d) and 13d-15(d) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
(b) Inherent Limitations of Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation or effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
