NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
CurAegis Technologies, Inc. (“CurAegis”, “the Company”) was incorporated as a New York business corporation in September 1996 under the name Torvec, Inc. The Company’s name was changed to CurAegis Technologies, Inc. in 2016 in connection with the establishment of its two business divisions. The CURA division is engaged in the fatigue management business and the Aegis division is engaged in the power and hydraulic business.
The Company develops and markets advanced technologies in the areas of safety, wellness and power. The Company is focused on the commercialization of a wellness and safety system (the CURA System) and a uniquely designed hydraulic pump that will be smaller, lighter, less expensive and more efficient than current technology. The Company has not had any significant revenue-producing operations.
The Company has created the CURA System to market products that reduce fatigue risk in the workplace and help individuals manage their sleep and improve alertness. The CURA System consists of the following capabilities:
| ● | real-time alertness utilizing the CURA app, |
| ● | the Group Wellness Index and |
| ● | the Z-Coach wellness program. |
The Aegis hydraulic pump technology has been designed to bring to the marketplace a unique concept in hydraulic pumps and motors that will be:
| ● | smaller, lighter and less expensive than conventional pumps and motors, |
| ● | more efficient, |
| ● | as reliable, |
| ● | unique in its ability to scale larger, allowing more powerful pumps and motors. |
It is important to note, regarding both the CURA and Aegis products, that the cycle time from the initiation of the sales process to revenue realization can be highly variable especially as a start-up entity. In addition to the activities to be undertaken to implement our plan of operations, we may expand and/or refocus our activities depending upon future circumstances and developments.
Current Cash Outlook and Management Plans
As of March 31, 2019, we have cash on hand of $51,000, negative working capital of $2,511,000, a stockholders’ deficiency of $9,497,000 and an accumulated deficit of $88,297,000. During the three months ended March 31, 2019 we raised $575,000 in proceeds through the issuance of promissory notes, convertible notes and warrants. The proceeds from this private placement has been used to support the ongoing development and marketing of our core technologies and product initiatives.
Management estimates that the 2019 cash needs will be $3 to $3.5 million, based upon the cash used in operations in the fourth quarter of 2018. As of March 31, 2019, the Company’s cash on hand is not sufficient to cover the Company’s future working capital requirements. This raises substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management continues to use its best efforts to develop financing opportunities to fund the development and commercialization of the CURA and Aegis products.
Since inception, we have financed our operations by the sale of our securities and debt financings. We need to raise additional funds to meet our working capital needs, to fund expansion of our business, to complete development, testing and marketing of our products, or to make strategic acquisitions or investments. No assurance can be given that necessary funds will be available for us to finance our development on acceptable terms, if at all. Furthermore, such additional financings will involve dilution to our shareholders or may require that we relinquish rights to certain of our technologies or products. In addition, we will experience operational difficulties and delays due to working capital restrictions. If adequate funds are not available from additional sources of financing, we will have to delay or scale back our growth plans.
The Company’s ability to fund its current and future commitments from its available cash depends on a number of factors. These factors include the Company’s ability to (i) launch and generate sales from the CURA division; (ii) generate revenue from the monetization of our hydraulic technologies or; (iii) decrease engineering and development and administrative expenses. If these and other factors are not met, the Company would need to raise funds in order to meet its working capital needs and pursue its growth strategy. Although there can be no such assurances, management believes that sources for these additional funds will be available through either current or future investors.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation: The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been included. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of what the results will be for the fiscal year. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018 contained in the Company’s 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC.
Consolidation: The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, our wholly-owned subsidiary Iso-Torque Corporation, and our majority-owned subsidiary, Ice Surface Development, Inc. (56% owned). As of March 31, 2019, each of the subsidiaries is non-operational.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are subject to a high degree of judgment and potential change. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications may have been made to prior year balances to conform to the current year’s presentation.
Cash: We maintain cash at financial institutions which periodically may exceed federally insured amounts. We have a corporate credit card program through our primary financial institution, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. In connection with this, the Company granted a security interest to the bank in our money market account to act as collateral for the activity within the corporate card program, up to $5,000.
Inventory: Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined under the average cost method. We have recorded provisions for excess, obsolete or slow-moving inventory based on changes in customer demand and technology developments. Inventory on hand at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 has been fully reserved reflecting a reserve of $1,747,000.
Right to use building asset
The FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases,” which requires a lessee to recognize on its balance sheet the assets and liabilities related to long-term leases that were classified as operating leases under previous guidance. An asset is recognized related to the Company's ability to retain the economic benefits and control of the underlying asset. A corresponding liability is recognized related to the Company's obligation to make lease payments over the term of the lease.
The standard became effective for the Company January 1, 2019. The Company utilized the modified retrospective approach to measure the right-to-use operating lease agreement associated with the office building used for our business operations located in Rochester, New York and utilized the practical expedient to not separate lease components from non-lease components. The adoption of this accounting standard did not impact our consolidated loss from operations and had no impact on cash flows.
Software, Property and Equipment: Capitalized software, property and equipment are stated at cost. Estimated useful lives are as follows:
Software (in years) | | 3 | |
Office equipment (in years) | 5 | - | 7 |
Leasehold improvements | lesser of useful life or lease term |
Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method. Betterments, renewals and significant repairs that extend the life of the assets are capitalized. Other repairs and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred. When disposed, the cost and accumulated depreciation applicable to assets retired are removed from the accounts and the gain or loss on disposition is recognized in other income (expense). Depreciation and software amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 amounted to $11,000 and $44,000, respectively.
Whenever events or circumstances indicate, our long-lived assets including any intangible assets with finite useful lives are tested for impairment by using the estimated future cash flows directly associated with, and that are expected to arise as a direct result of, the use of the assets. If the carrying amount exceeds the estimated undiscounted cash flows, impairment may be indicated. The carrying amount is compared to the estimated discounted cash flows and if there is an excess such amount is recorded as impairment.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments: As defined by U.S. GAAP, fair value is 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. A hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information is used to determine fair values. Assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data
The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) guidance for the disclosure about fair value of financial instruments requires disclosure of an estimate of the fair value of certain financial instruments. The fair value of financial instruments pursuant to FASB’s guidance for the disclosure about fair value of financial instruments approximated their carrying values at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The carrying amount of cash, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximates their fair value due to their short maturity. The senior convertible notes can be converted into common stock with an underlying value of $5,454,000 as of March 31, 2019 based on the trading price on March 31, 2019.
Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue: On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted FASB ASC 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" and all related amendments for all contracts using the modified retrospective method. There was no impact upon the adoption of ASC 606. The Company has determined that the adoption of this standard did not require a cumulative effect adjustment. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. For contracts where performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time, the Company recognizes revenue when the product is shipped to the customer. For contracts where the performance obligation is satisfied over time, as in the Z-Coach sales, the Company recognizes revenue over the subscription period. Revenue from the sale of the Company's products is recognized net of cash discounts, sales returns and allowances. The Company has two sources of revenue: (i) from the sale of CURA System products and (ii) from stand-alone Z-Coach subscriptions.
The Company's net revenue is derived primarily from domestic customers. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 net revenue from products transferred over time amounted to $7,000 and there was no revenue from products transferred at a point in time. One customer accounted for 89% of total Z-Coach subscription sales made during the three months ended March 31, 2019. Our collection terms provide customers standard terms of net 30 days. Future performance obligations are reflected in deferred revenue.
CURA revenue is recognized (a) upon receipt of payment at the point of sale of the CURA app, (b) upon the delivery of myCadian products and (c) upon the company’s satisfaction of all performance obligations as described in customer agreements. The Z-Coach Program provides fatigue training over an annual subscription period of twelve months. The Z-Coach Program allows the user unlimited access during the annual subscription period. Customers are billed at the acceptance of the subscription, and revenue is recognized ratably over the subscription period as our performance obligations are satisfied and when collection is reasonably assured. Our collection terms provide customers standard terms of net 30 days. Future performance obligations are reflected in deferred revenue.
Engineering and Development and Patents: Engineering and development costs and patent expenses are charged to operations as incurred. Engineering and development include personnel-related costs, materials and supplies, depreciation and consulting services. Patent costs for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 amounted to $10,000 and $31,000, respectively, and are included in general and administrative expenses.
Stock-based Compensation: FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718-10 requires all share-based payments to be recognized as compensation expense over the service period (generally the vesting period) in the consolidated financial statements based on their fair values on the grant date. The impact of forfeitures that may occur prior to vesting is also estimated and considered in the amount recognized. In addition, the realization of tax benefits in excess of amounts recognized for financial reporting purposes will be recognized as a financing activity in accordance with ASC 718-10. No tax benefits were attributed to the stock-based compensation expense because a valuation allowance was maintained for substantially all net deferred tax assets.
During 2018, the Company adopted FASB ASU 2018-07, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees,” which requires all share-based payments to non-employees, including grants of stock options, to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements as expense generally over the service period of the consulting arrangement or as performance conditions are expected to be met. FASB ASC 718-20 requires that modifications of the terms or conditions of equity awards be treated as an exchange of the original award for a new award. Incremental compensation cost is measured as the excess, if any, of the fair value of the modified award over the fair value of the original award immediately before its terms are modified. The Company utilized a modified retrospective approach effective as of January 1, 2018 in the adoption of this accounting guidance which resulted in a reduction of $10,000 in stock compensation expense previously recorded costs for options outstanding to non-employees.
Income Taxes: We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method, the objective of which is to establish deferred tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences between the financial reporting and the tax basis of our assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. A valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
We account for uncertain tax positions using a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold based on the technical merits of the tax position taken. Tax benefits that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be measured as the largest amount of tax benefits, determined on a cumulative probability basis, which is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement in the financial statements. It is our policy to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters as general and administrative expenses. As of March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, there were no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
Loss per Common Share: FASB’s ASC 260-10 (“Earnings Per Share”) requires the presentation of basic earnings per share, which is based on weighted average common stock outstanding, and dilutive earnings per share, which gives effect to options, warrants and convertible securities in periods when they are dilutive. At March 31, 2019 and 2018, we excluded 96,927,383 and 84,560,427 potential common shares, respectively, relating to convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, options and warrants outstanding from the diluted net loss per common share calculation because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. In addition, we excluded 625,000 warrants from the diluted net loss per common share calculation at March 31, 2019 and 2018 as the conditions for their vesting are not time-based.
NOTE 3 – INVENTORY AND RELATED VENDOR LIABILITY

The Company has recorded $1,678,000 in inventory and components which were purchased by the vendor on our behalf and a related liability of $1,462,000 for amounts payable in connection with this agreement.
During the 2018, the Company recorded an additional reserve of $1,741,000 in connection with a review of inventory on-hand. This recognizes a reserve for myCadian related components and finished goods on hand at that date. Management will continue to evaluate this reserve in future reporting periods.

NOTE 6 – RIGHT-TO-USE BUILDING ASSET
The FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases,” which requires a lessee to recognize in its balance sheet the assets and liabilities related to long-term leases that were classified as operating leases under previous guidance. An asset is recognized related to the right to use the underlying asset and a liability is recognized related to the obligation to make lease payments over the term of the lease. The standard became effective for the Company January 1, 2019. The Company utilized the modified retrospective approach to measure the right-to-use operating lease agreement associated with the office building used as our headquarters located in Rochester, New York. The adoption of this accounting standard did not impact our consolidated loss from operations and had no impact on cash flows.
The Company measured the present value of future lease costs at $257,000 which included monthly rental, common area costs, and taxes in measuring the present value of the right-to-use building asset on January 1, 2019. The Company assumed an incremental borrowing rate of 6% as the building lease agreement does not include an implicit rate. The right-to-use asset includes two, one year renewal options that run through May 2021.
Operating lease costs for the first quarter of 2019 were $30,000 with future maturing lease liabilities as follows: 2019: $85,000 for the remaining nine months of 2019; $114,000 in 2020 and $57,000 in 2021. Total future lease payments are $256,000 including imputed interest of $18,000.

NOTE 11 - STOCK OPTIONS
2016 Stock Option Plan The shareholders approved the 2016 Stock Option Plan (the “2016 Plan”) which provides for the grant of up to 3,000,000 common stock options to provide equity incentives to directors, officers, employees and consultants. Two types of options may be granted under the 2016 Plan: non-qualified stock options and incentive stock options. As of March 31, 2019, 1,220,000 options have been granted under the 2016 plan and 1,780,000 options are available for future grant.
2011 Stock Option Plan The shareholders approved the 2011 Stock Option Plan (the “2011 Plan”) which provides for the grant of up to 3,000,000 common stock options to provide equity incentives to directors, officers, employees and consultants. Two types of options may be granted under the 2011 Plan: non-qualified stock options and incentive stock options. As of March 31, 2019, there are 91,500 options are available for future grant under the 2011 Plan.
Under the 2016 and 2011 Stock Option Plans, non-qualified stock options may be granted to our officers, directors, employees and outside consultants. Incentive stock options may be granted only to our employees, including officers and directors who are also employees. In the case of incentive stock options, the exercise price may not be less than such fair market value and in the case of an employee who owns more than 10% of our common stock, the exercise price may not be less than 110% of such market price. Options generally are exercisable for ten years from the date of grant, except that the exercise period for an incentive stock option granted to an employee who owns more than 10% of our stock may not be greater than five years.
During the three months ended March 31, 2019, no stock options were granted. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, 150,000 stock options were granted.
Non-Plan Options On occasion, we have granted non-qualified stock options to certain officers, directors and employees that have been outside of established Company Stock Option Plans. All such option grants have been subsequently authorized by shareholder approval.
Summary For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, compensation expense related to stock option awards amounted to $59,000 and $2,000, respectively. As of March 31, 2019, there was approximately $238,000 of total unrecognized compensation costs related to outstanding stock options, which are expected to be recognized over a weighted average of 1.1 years.
The weighted average grant date fair value of stock options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was zero and $0.33, respectively. The total grant date fair value of stock options vested during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was approximately $4,000 and $22,000, respectively.
The fair value of each option granted was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:
| | 2019 | | | 2018 | |
Expected term (years) | | | - | | | | 6.3 | |
Expected forfeiture rate | | | - | | | | 0% | |
Risk-free rate | | | - | | | | 2.6% | |
Volatility | | | - | | | | 130% | |
Dividend yield | | | - | | | | 0.0% | |
The average risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. treasury security rate in effect as of the grant date. We determined expected volatility using the historical closing stock price. The expected life was generally determined using the simplified method as we do not believe we have sufficient historical stock option exercise experience on which to base the expected term.

Overall Business Strategy
CurAegis Technologies, Inc. (“CurAegis”, “the Company”) was incorporated as a New York business corporation in September 1996 under the name Torvec, Inc. The Company’s name was changed to CurAegis Technologies, Inc. in 2016 in connection with the establishment of its two business divisions. The CURA (Circadian User Risk Assessment) division is engaged in the fatigue management business, and the Aegis division is engaged in the power and hydraulic business.
The Company develops and markets advanced technologies in the areas of safety, wellness and power. The Company is focused on the commercialization of a wellness and safety system (the CURA System) and a uniquely designed hydraulic pump that will be smaller, lighter, less expensive and more efficient than current technology. The Company has not had significant revenue-producing operations. The Company has created the CURA System to market products that reduce fatigue risk in the workplace and help individuals manage their sleep and improve alertness. The CURA System consists of the following capabilities:
| ● | real-time alertness monitoring, |
| ● | the Group Wellness Index, and |
| ● | the Z-Coach Wellness Program. |
The Aegis hydraulic pump technology has been designed to bring to the marketplace a unique concept in hydraulic pumps and motors that will be:
| ● | smaller, lighter, and less expensive than conventional pumps and motors, |
| ● | more efficient, |
| ● | as reliable, and |
| ● | unique in its ability to scale larger, allowing more powerful pumps and motors. |
It is important to note, regarding both the CURA and Aegis products, that the cycle time from the initiation of the sales process to revenue realization can be highly variable especially for a start-up entity. In addition to the activities to be undertaken by us to implement our plan of operation detailed below, we may expand and/or refocus our marketing activities depending upon future circumstances and developments.
Information regarding the Company and all of our inventions, including regular updates on technological and business developments, can be found on our website www.curaegis.com. The website and its contents are not incorporated by reference into this report.
CURA Division: the CURA System, and Z-Coach e-learning
The Company’s CURA division is developing a proprietary technology and related products designed to (i) measure the decrease in a person’s alertness and (ii) to train individuals on how to improve alertness levels. The CURA System will enable the user and third parties to anticipate and avert undesired or disastrous situations caused by the degradation of alertness. With the information provided from the CURA software analytics, employees can work with Z-Coach, our proprietary sleep training and education solution to correct sleep issues and improve overall wellness.
During 2018, the Company released an APP that utilizes the CURA algorithm with a Fitbit device with a consumer focus. The APP was further developed throughout 2018 and 2019 to expand the reporting capabilities to other devices and to include an API for corporate users. The Company anticipates updated software for the APP and the API in the second quarter of 2019 in anticipation of mid-year 2019 CURA product sales. We believe this will greatly improve the ease of use and the customer experience. We have also modified our pricing structure which we believe makes it much more attractive to potential customers.
CurAegis has engaged sleep study experts and neurologists to assist with the analysis and validation of our technologies. The Company believes a solutions approach can be created to indicate a “degradation of alertness” and thus give immediate and important information to the user and other parties. Action taken upon a warning of a change in alertness will lead to a better and safer environment. The CURA System is designed to provide real-time alertness monitoring that addresses sleep and fatigue management solutions. This is especially important when an individual’s alertness is essential in properly performing tasks, fulfilling responsibilities and averting disasters. The Company has filed for patent protection for these inventions.
The CURA platform is designed to predict and detect a degradation of alertness in a user and reveal sleep and fatigue problems. The CURA platform will include:
| ● | a proprietary tool to guide users and third parties about the alertness of the wearer, |
| ● | a risk assessment that identifies the degradation of alertness potentially affecting the wearer’s ability to perform tasks, |
| ● | an assessment for alertness and sleep, |
| ● | real-time reporting that distills complex data into actionable information on mobile and desktop platforms, |
| ● | predictive reporting for a user to take action when alertness begins to wane, before fatigue becomes dangerous, |
| ● | flexible settings to provide employers a customized tool within existing safety definitions and to create protocols for a unique environment, and |
| ● | pricing that makes it affordable across a broad-based workforce. |
The Company has invested in controlled clinical studies at the Sleep and Chronobiology Laboratory at the University of Boulder-Colorado and at the University of Rochester Medical Center. These studies have been used to calibrate our proprietary technologies and algorithms.
The Z-Coach tool is a key component of the CURA platform and was originally created by highly respected fatigue management scientists. We acquired Z-Coach in September 2015. Z-Coach learning topics include: Risks and Costs of Fatigue, Fundamentals of Sleep, Fatigue Mitigation and Countermeasures. Z-Coach participants gain an awareness of the dangers inherent in the lack of sleep and learn to utilize lifestyle tools to make changes to improve their health, mood, productivity and safety.
Aegis Division: Hydraulic Pump
During 2018 the Company initiated discussions with a major hydraulics manufacturer ("the Manufacturer") to evaluate our hydraulics technology. After several productive discussions, the Manufacturer and the Company signed a Memorandum of Understanding ("the MOU") to evaluate an investment in the AEGIS technologies. The Company and the Manufacturer continued discussions through March 18, 2019 when it was determined that the parties had not been able to reach an agreement to proceed. In April 2019, the Company engaged an investment banking firm to provide financial advisory services in connection with a potential sale of the Aegis technologies. Management believes these are valuable assets and will prioritize receiving a fair price for them.
The development of the Aegis hydraulic pump has taken on added significance in light of emissions regulations for off road diesel engines. To help achieve these standards, companies are attempting to run diesel engines, and their hydraulic pumps, at lower rotational speeds. This requires larger displacement hydraulic pumps to be installed to compensate for the decrease in rotational speed. Among other advantages, the Aegis hydraulic pump technology allows a larger displacement pump to fit into the same or smaller footprint than that of existing pumps. This enables manufacturers to keep the current equipment layout without the need for expensive modifications to accommodate larger hydraulic pumps.
The Aegis engineering team has completed a production prototype and is working to align the prototype capability with specific customer applications. The Company has achieved significant milestones in the design and testing of this prototype in recent years. Engineering testing, design and expansion of pump and motor functionality is continuing.
We have invested in software, test equipment and personnel to enhance our development efforts of our hydraulic pump to improve performance while maintaining the advantages we have in weight and scale. We maintain our own testing facility, which eliminates the necessity of third party testing fees and support. Our engineering and design team has progressively made adjustments to the valve and piston technology and these changes have resulted in improvement in the measured efficiency of the pump. We have filed for patent protection for our novel non-rotating group pump concept, and we are also working on additional patents as a result of engineering breakthroughs in our design process. We will continue to design modifications to enhance the overall pump technology.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company recognized $274,000 in interest expense on the convertible notes which includes $165,000 of amortization on debt discount that is classified as interest expense. Also included in interest expense is $1,000 from 6% unsecured subordinated promissory notes. During the three months ended March 2018, the Company recognized $98,000 in interest expense on the convertible notes and $139,000 of amortization on debt discount offset by $1,000 in income on disposed assets.
The increase in interest expense in the first quarter of 2019 reflects an increase of $334,000 in outstanding principal of 2017 convertible notes that bear interest at 6% per annum resulting in increased interest expense year over year. The increase also reflects an increase in debt discount related to newly issued convertible debt of $501,000 resulting in increased amortization of debt discount reported as interest.
Net Loss for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018
The net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $1,148,000, compared with a net loss in the three months ended March 31, 2018 of $1,295,000. The net loss attributable to common stockholders for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $1,202,000 compared to $1,349,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018.
The weighted average basic and diluted common shares outstanding amounted to 50,401,000 and 49,031,000 for each of the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase in weighted average basic and diluted shares in the first quarter of 2019 reflects warrants issued on convertible notes and option grants granted since the first quarter of 2018. Basic and diluted loss per common share for each of the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were $0.02 and $0.03 respectively.
Preferred stock dividends $54,000 were recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2019, the Company had cash on-hand of $51,000, a decrease of $2,000 since the beginning of the year. During the three months ended March 31, 2019 we used $577,000 of cash in operating activities. A net loss of $1,148,000 was adjusted for $244,000 in non-cash expenses for: depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation and interest paid in shares during the quarter. The Company reported $327,000 in changes in working capital components during the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in cash used in operations in the first quarter of 2019 compared to the first quarter of 2018 was driven by: the decrease in the net loss during the first quarter, increase in amortization of debt discount reported as interest, increase in stock compensation expense combined with the increase in accounts payable and other current liabilities.
During the first quarter of 2019, the Company issued $450,000 in new convertible debt and $125,000 in unsecured subordinated promissory notes resulting in $575,000 in cash provided by financing activities. During the first quarter of 2018, the Company generated $1,200,000 in cash from financing activities from the issuances of 2017 Convertible Notes.
Current Cash Outlook and Management Plans
As of March 31, 2019, we have cash on hand of $51,000, negative working capital of $2,511,000, a stockholders’ deficit of $9,497,000 and an accumulated deficit of $88,297,000. During the first quarter of 2019 we raised $575,000 in proceeds through the issuance of convertible notes and subordinated promissory notes. The proceeds from these debt issuances have been used to support the ongoing development and marketing of our core technologies and product initiatives.
Management estimates that the 2019 cash needs will be $3 to $3.5 million, based on its current development and product plans. As of March 31, 2019, the Company’s cash on hand is not sufficient to cover the Company’s future working capital requirements. This raises substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management continues to use its best efforts to develop financing opportunities to fund the development and commercialization of the CURA and Aegis products.
Since inception, we have financed our operations by the sale of our securities and debt financings. We need to raise additional funds to meet our working capital needs, to fund expansion of our business, to complete development, testing and marketing of our products, or to make strategic acquisitions or investments. No assurance can be given that necessary funds will be available for us to finance our development on acceptable terms, if at all. Furthermore, such additional financings will involve dilution to our shareholders or may require that we relinquish rights to certain of our technologies or products. In addition, we may experience operational difficulties and delays due to working capital restrictions. If adequate funds are not available from additional sources of financing, we will have to delay or scale back our growth plans.
The Company’s ability to fund its current and future commitments from its available cash depends on a number of factors. These factors include the Company’s ability to (i) launch and generate sales from the CURA division; (ii) monetization of our hydraulic technologies or; (iii) decrease engineering and development and administrative expenses. If these and other factors are not met, the Company will need to raise funds in order to meet its working capital needs and pursue its growth strategy. Although there can be no assurances, management believes that sources for these additional funds will be available through either current or future investors.
Critical Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition
The Company has two sources of revenue: (i) from the sale of CURA products and (ii) from stand-alone Z-Coach subscriptions. Revenue from the sale of CURA system is recognized upon the shipment of myCadian products to a customer and upon the company’s satisfaction of all performance obligations as described in customer agreements. The Z-Coach Program provides fatigue training over an annual subscription period of twelve months. The Z-Coach Program allows the user unlimited access during the annual subscription period. Customers are billed at the acceptance of the subscription, and revenue is recognized ratably over the subscription period as our performance obligations are satisfied and when collection is reasonably assured. Our collection terms provide customers standard terms of net 30 days. Future performance obligations are reflected in deferred revenue.
Income Taxes
We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method, the objective of which is to establish deferred tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences between the financial reporting and the tax basis of our assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. A valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
We account for uncertain tax positions using a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold based on the technical merits of the tax position taken. Tax benefits that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be measured as the largest amount of tax benefits, determined on a cumulative probability basis, which is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement in the financial statements. It is our policy to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters as general and administrative expenses. As of March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, there were no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
Stock-Based Compensation
FASB ASC 718-10 requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period (generally the vesting period) in the consolidated financial statements based on their fair values on the grant date. The impact of forfeitures that may occur prior to vesting is also estimated and considered in the amount recognized. In addition, the realization of tax benefits in excess of amounts recognized for financial reporting purposes will be recognized as a financing activity in accordance with FASB ASC 718-10.
No tax benefits were attributed to the stock-based compensation expense because a valuation allowance was maintained for substantially all net deferred tax assets.
FASB ASC 718-20 requires that modifications of the terms or conditions of equity awards be treated as an exchange of the original award for a new award. Incremental compensation cost is measured as the excess, if any, of the fair value of the modified award over the fair value of the original award immediately before its terms are modified.
