WATERPURE INTERNATIONAL, INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS
NATURE OF OPERATIONS
WaterPure International, Inc. (the “Company”) (a development stage company) was incorporated in the state of Florida on July 22, 2005, for the purpose of marketing selected private label products and services to the small office and/or home office as well as the consumer markets. The Company intends to market and eventually to manufacture the licensed Atmospheric Water Generators from Everest Water Ltd., devices that harvest pure drinking water from ambient air. These machines are engineered to produce drinking water virtually free of any material, bacterial, organic or other contaminants. The Company also intends to market mineral additives that will permit addition of organic minerals, flavors and other desired additives to water produced by the machine. The products will bear the Company’s own exclusive WaterPure branding.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. In the Company’s opinion, the unaudited interim financial statements and accompanying notes reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring adjustments, that are necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position and operating results for the three and six month interim periods ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the cumulative period from inception (July 22, 2005) to December 31, 2009.
The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year. This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes there to included in the Company’s Form 10-K as of June 30, 2009 and for the period commencing from inception (July 22, 2005) through June 30, 2009.
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN/MANAGEMENT’S PLAN
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred a net loss since its inception totaling $5,476,703, has earned minimal revenues and has a working capital deficit of $1,158,347, as of December 31, 2009. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. In order to generate revenues and provide the working capital needed to continue and expand operations, the Company’s management has committed to a plan for increasing retail distribution channels for its products and raising additional capital. There can be no assurances, however, that the Company will be able to obtain the necessary funding to finance their operations or grow revenue in sufficient amounts to fund their operations.
NOTE 3 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY
The Company is considered a development stage company as it has no principal operations and minimal revenue. Operations from the Company’s inception through December 31, 2009 were devoted primarily to strategic planning, raising capital and developing revenue-generating opportunities.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain amounts on the financial statements as of and for the six months ended December 31, 2008 have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
NOTE 3 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Company considers financial instruments with a maturity date of three months or less from the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents at December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
The Company makes judgments about the collectibility of accounts receivable to be able to present them at their net realizable value on the balance sheet. Such judgments require careful analysis of the aging of customer accounts, consideration of why accounts have not been paid, and review of historical bad debt issues. From this analysis, the Company determines an estimated allowance for receivables that will ultimately become uncollectible. As of December 31, 2009, and June 30, 2009, the Company had an allowance for bad debts of $-0- and $22,759, respectively.
INVENTORIES
The Company states inventories at the lower of cost or market. As of December 31, 2009, inventories consisted of purchased finished goods, plus directly attributable acquisition costs. Cost of inventory is determined using the weighted average cost method. The Company assesses the need to establish inventory reserves for excess, obsolete or slow-moving inventory based on changes in customer demand, technology developments and other factors.
LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
The Company amortizes its intangible assets with finite lives over their respective estimated lives and requires that long-lived assets and certain intangible assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the assets, an impairment loss is to be recognized based on the fair value of the assets. There were no such impairment losses as of December 31, 2009 or June 30, 2009.
DEPOSITS
The Company recognizes deposits as liabilities when payments are received in advance of formal agreements. These amounts are classified as current or non-current pursuant to the Company’s expectation as to the future use of such funds.
CONVERTIBLE DEBT
The Company accounts for its convertible debt by requiring the embedded beneficial conversion features present in its convertible securities be valued separately at issuance and recognized and measured by allocating a portion of the proceeds equal to the intrinsic value of that feature to additional paid-in capital.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenue based on four basic criteria that must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (3) the fee is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectibility is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the fee charged for services rendered and products delivered and the collectibility of those fees.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
NOTE 3 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
DEFERRED REVENUE
The Company has entered into a six separate Master Distributorship Agreements with third-parties whereby the third-parties will market and sell WaterPure branded machines to customers and resellers. These third-parties have entered into purchase commitments for 3,310 units and have deposited $165,500, which the Company will apply in $50 increments towards each WaterPure atmospheric water machine sold and delivered within twenty-four months of the execution of the agreement. The Company has recorded the deposit as deferred revenue, and recognizes the revenue as each machine is sold. The Company has sold 10 of these machines and recognized $500 in revenue for the six months ended December 31, 2009 and sold 24 units and recognized $1,200 in revenue for the year ended June 30, 2009.
SHIPPING AND HANDLING COSTS
Outbound shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold in the accompanying statements of income. These costs were $295 and $419 for the six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
INCOME TAXES
The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets, liabilities, and other transactions did not result in a provision for current or deferred income taxes for the periods from July 22, 2005 (inception) through December 31, 2009.

The Company’s financial instrument that is exposed to a concentration of credit risk is cash. The Company places its cash with a high credit quality institution. At December 31, 2009, the Company’s cash balance on deposit did not exceed federal depository insurance limits.
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
The Company has partially implemented a framework for measuring fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities except as it relates to nonrecurring fair value measurements of nonfinancial assets and liabilities. The Company has determined that none of its financial assets or liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
The Company presents basic loss per share and, if applicable, diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share are calculated by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. The effect of computing the diluted income (loss) per share is antidilutive and as such, basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same for the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2009.
STOCK BASED COMPENSATION AND PAYMENTS
Share-based compensation issued to employees is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the grant). Share-based compensation issued to non-employees is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more readily measurable, and is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period.

NOTE 3 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), launched the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) as the single source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB. The ASC reorganizes various U.S. GAAP pronouncements into accounting topics and displays them using a consistent structure. All existing accounting standards documents are superseded as described in Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. All of the contents of the ASC carry the same level of authority, effectively superseding SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, which identified and ranked the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Also included in the ASC are rules and interpretive releases of the SEC, under authority of federal securities laws that are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. The ASC is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption of the ASC as of July 1, 2009 had no impact on the Company’s financial statements other than changing the way specific accounting standards are referenced in the financial statements.
Effective July 1, 2009, the Company adopted ASC 820 for nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Previous to July 1, 2009, this Standard did not apply to such assets and liabilities. The adoption of ASC 820 on July 1, 2009 for such assets and liabilities did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements,
In May 2009, the FASB issued ASC 855. ASC 855 establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. The adoption of this standard on July 1, 2009 required the Company to disclose the date through which it has evaluated subsequent events and whether that date is the date the financials were issued.
NOTE 4 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS - LICENSE
On December 7, 2007, the Company entered into licensing agreements with Everest Water LTD for the manufacturing and marketing rights to atmospheric water generators and mineral additive units. The Company agreed to pay $300,000, plus 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $330,000 as consideration under this agreement. The Company paid $50,000 with the execution of the agreement and an additional $20,000 through July 31, 2008. On August 1, 2008, the Company and Everest Water LTD modified the payment terms of their licensing agreement, because the cash payment obligation under the original agreement could not be met by the Company. Under the amended payment terms, the Company cancelled the shares to be issued to Everest and agreed to pay Everest $430,000 over 33 months starting September 1, 2008, plus 8% royalty payments with guarantee minimum payments as follows: $50,000 in year one, $60,000 in year two, $70,000 in year three, $90,000 in year four and $100,000 each year after until the termination of the licensing agreement,which coincides with the expiration of the last patent in August 2027. The Company has accounted for this modification as a troubled debt restructuring.
The following table summarizes the various components of the Everest license as of December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009:
December 31, | June 30, | |||||||
2009 | 2009 | |||||||
Cost of license described above | $ | 1,094,864 | $ | 1,094,864 | ||||
Less: accumulated amortization | 135,610 | 102,643 | ||||||
License, net | $ | 959,254 | $ | 992,221 |
Total license amortization was $16,484 and $32,967 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, respectively and $16,342 and $29,583 for the three and six months ended December 31, 2008, respectively.

Overview
WaterPure International, Inc. was organized under the laws of the state of Florida on July 22, 2005 and conducts business as a marketer and manufacturer of Atmospheric Water Generators (“AWG”). Though originally structured as a marketing entity, we have now become a manufacturer of AWGs after licensing patents from Everest Corp. and developing our own new line of AWGs under those patents. This strategic decision has led to sales fluctuations due to allocation of resources to research and development in some of our previous operating periods.
We are a development stage company until the sale of these new products lead to recognition of significant revenue. We want to be identified as an environmentally sustainable business. Clean drinking water is becoming a scarce commodity as our population increases. Additionally, it is our goal to utilize the intellectual property from Everest Corp. to become a leading worldwide manufacturer of AWGs based on the quality of our machines and our choice of distributors and marketing channels. Our future results are highly dependent upon the success of our efforts to manufacture and market our products and having the ability to attain and attract qualified personnel and adequate working capital.
In December 2007, we entered into two worldwide license agreements with Everest Water Ltd. for the manufacturing and marketing rights to advanced models of AWGs. One license is a non-exclusive license for a stand-alone water generator and the second license is an exclusive license for a mineral additive water generator process that will permit the addition of organic minerals, flavors and other additives to the water produced by the AWGs.
Currently we are focused on completion of our final production model of our new AWG, the WaterCycletm. We have leased a 4,400 sq. ft, facility in Oakland Park, Florida that is in close proximity to our supplier of sheet metal used to build the new units. Our efforts to market the units after production have led to the signing of contracts with distributors in Florida, France, United Arab Emirates, the Cayman Islands and parts of Mexico. Also, rights of first refusal have been granted for Illinois, Venezuela and Colombia.
We have been engaged in the development of a new AWG “the WatercycleTM”, in connection with the patent license we acquired from Everest Water Ltd. This new device utilizes ozone to eliminate microorganisms, increases water producing ability, has a more attractive appearance and uses fewer parts than the machines we are currently marketing. One model of the new AWG will also include an optional feature that will permit the user to add flavors and natural herbal additives, such as green tea. We have been marketing three models of AWGs from our existing inventory as well as new purchases from Liquid Air-Florida and have generated minimal revenues from operations.
We feel that the differentiations in the new AWG could help us capture a larger market segment in the future because of its design, features and worldwide respect for “Made in USA” products, especially after the past product problems with a variety of products manufactured overseas.

On October 22, 2009, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Mayim Tahor, LLC (“Mayim”) providing for the sale by the Company to Mayim of up to 100 shares of the Company’s series A convertible preferred stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) at a price of $2,500 per share of Series A Preferred Stock. Through December 31, 2009, Mayim purchased 70 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for $175,000.

Each share of Series A Preferred Stock has a stated value of $2,500 (the “Stated Value”), is entitled to a cumulative dividend of six percent (6%) of the Stated Value per annum, payable semi-annually. In addition, each share of Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to receive a royalty payment of $0.16 for each atmospheric water generator sold by the Company.
Mayim may convert, at any time, the shares of Series A Preferred Stock into the number of shares of common stock of the Company obtained by dividing the Stated Value by the Conversion Price then in effect. The conversion price is $0.01, as defined in the Purchase Agreement.
Results of Operations
For the Period from July 22, 2005 (Inception) through December 31, 2009
Since we were formed on July 22, 2005, we have earned approximately $216,000 in revenues and have incurred a cumulative net loss since our inception of approximately $5,476,703 through December 31, 2009. Operations from inception through December 31, 2009 were devoted primarily to strategic planning, raising capital and developing revenue-generating opportunities.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
To date, we have generated minimal revenues and have incurred operating losses in every quarter. We are a development stage company, have not generated significant revenues from operations and have incurred significant losses since inception. These factors among others raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
As of December 31, 2009, we had a working capital deficiency of $1,158,347. For the six months ended December 31, 2009, we had net cash outflow from operating activities of $224,118. Cash provided by financing activities totaled $234,843 for the six months ended December 31, 2009.
We do not have enough capital to support operations for the next 12 months. We anticipate we will need approximately $1.5 million, consisting of approximately $600,000 for manufacturing, $100,000 for sales and marketing and $600,000 for general and administrative expenses and working capital. An additional $200,000 would be utilized for the production and execution of our marketing support program. We are currently seeking joint venture partners and equity financing to fund these expenditures, although we do not have any contracts or commitments for either at this time. We will have to raise additional funds to continue manufacturing our AWGs and, while we have been successful in doing so in the past, there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so in the future. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain necessary additional funds to continue operations and the attainment of profitable operations.
By adjusting our operations to the level of capitalization, and through short term loans from officers we believe we will have sufficient capital resources to meet current projected cash flow deficits. However, if during that period, or thereafter, we are not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from operations or in raising sufficient capital resources, on terms acceptable to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition.
We presently do not have any available credit, bank financing or other external sources of liquidity. Due to our brief history and historical operating losses, our operations have not been a source of liquidity. We will need to obtain additional capital in order to expand operations and become profitable. In order to obtain capital, we may need to sell additional shares of our common stock or borrow funds from private lenders. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional funding.

We will still need additional capital in order to continue operations until we are able to achieve positive operating cash flow. Additional capital is being sought, but we cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain such investments. Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. However, the trading price of our common stock and a downturn in the U.S. stock and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. If additional financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, we will have to curtail our operations.
We have financed our losses through the sale of our common stock, issuance of common stock for services in lieu of cash, and loans from officers and stockholders. During the six months ended December 31, 2009, we received the following capital infusions: $62,500 from the sale of 12,250,000 shares of our common stock, $175,000 from the sale of 70 shares of our series A preferred stock and loans from shareholders totaling $23,272. In addition, during the six months ended December 31, 2009, in lieu of cash payments, we issued 9,250,000 shares of common stock valued at $78,600 for services rendered. We do not intend to pay interest on the advances borrowed from officers and stockholders as the advances are intended to be short-term.
Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued a going concern paragraph in their Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (dated October 12, 2009) on our financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 that states there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The conditions that led to the going concern continue to exist as of December 31, 2009. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to access capital through debt and equity funding as well as market and sell our various products.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements are prepared based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These accounting principles require us to exercise significant judgment about future events that affect the amounts reported throughout our financial statements. Actual events could unfold quite differently than our previous judgments had predicted. Therefore, the estimates and assumptions inherent in the financial statements included in this report could be materially different once those actual events are known. We believe the following policies may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity in their application and represent critical accounting policies used in the preparation of our financial statements. If different assumptions or estimates were used, our financial statements could be materially different from those included in this report.
Revenue Recognition
We sell atmospheric water generators. Revenue from such product sales is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is probable. At this time the earnings process is complete and the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer, which is generally when the goods are shipped and all our significant obligations have been satisfied.
Accounts Receivable
We must make judgments about the collectibility of our accounts receivable to be able to present them at their net realizable value on the balance sheet. To do this, we carefully analyze the aging of our customer accounts, try to understand why accounts have not been paid, and review historical bad debt problems. From this analysis, we record an estimated allowance for receivables that we believe will ultimately become uncollectible. As of December 31, 2009, we had no allowance for bad debts. We actively manage our accounts receivable to minimize our credit risks and believe that our current allowance for doubtful accounts is fairly stated.
Inventory Valuation
We make judgments about the ultimate realizability of our inventory in order to record our inventory at its lower of cost or market. These judgments involve reviewing current demand for our products in comparison to present inventory levels and reviewing inventory costs compared to current market values.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
There are no accounting pronouncements not yet adopted that are expected to have a significant impact on us.

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not required under Regulation S-K for “smaller reporting companies.”
ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of December 31, 2009. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
Based on our evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as a result of the material weaknesses described below, our disclosure controls and procedures are not designed at a reasonable assurance level and are ineffective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is not accumulated nor communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The material weaknesses, which relate to internal control over financial reporting, that were identified are:
a) We did not have sufficient personnel in our accounting and financial reporting functions. As a result, we were not able to achieve adequate segregation of duties and were not able to provide for adequate reviewing of the financial statements. This control deficiency, which is pervasive in nature, results in a reasonable possibility that material misstatements of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis; |
b) We did not maintain sufficient personnel with an appropriate level of technical accounting knowledge, experience, and training in the application of U.S. GAAP commensurate with our complexity and our financial accounting and reporting requirements. This control deficiency is pervasive in nature. Further, there is a reasonable possibility that material misstatements of the financial statements including disclosures will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis as a result; and |
c) We did not document or test our key controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002. As a result, we cannot provide proper recording of the framework for our internal controls nor the results of such controls. There is a reasonable possibility that material misstatements of the financial statements including disclosures will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis without the ability to determine if our testing was properly conducted. |
We are committed to improving our financial organization. As part of this commitment, we will create a segregation of duties consistent with control objectives and will look to increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function by the end of fiscal 2010 to resolve non-routine or complex accounting matters. In addition, when funds are available to the Company, which we expect to occur by the end of fiscal 2010, we will take the following action to enhance our internal controls: Hiring additional knowledgeable personnel with technical accounting expertise to further support the current accounting personnel at the Company, which management estimates will cost approximately $75,000 per annum. We will engage outside consultants in the future as necessary in order to ensure proper treatment of non-routine or complex accounting matters. In addition, management is working to establish written procedures to document and test the key controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002.
Management believes that hiring additional knowledgeable personnel with technical accounting expertise will remedy the following material weaknesses: (A) lack of sufficient personnel in our accounting and financial reporting functions to achieve adequate segregation of duties; and (B) insufficient personnel with an appropriate level of technical accounting knowledge, experience, and training in the application of US GAAP commensurate with our complexity and our financial accounting and reporting requirements.
Management believes that the hiring of additional personnel who have the technical expertise and knowledge with the non-routine or technical issues we have encountered in the past will result in both proper recording of these transactions and a much more knowledgeable finance department as a whole. Due to the fact that our accounting staff consists of a Chief Financial Officer and an accounting clerk, additional personnel will also ensure the proper segregation of duties and provide more checks and balances within the department. Additional personnel will also provide the cross training needed to support us if personnel turnover issues within the department occur. We believe this will greatly decrease any control and procedure issues we may encounter in the future.
We will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
