The following financial statements have not been reviewed by the Company’s independent accountant.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, condensed statements of operations data. The table and the discussion below should be read in conjunction with the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this report.
Revenues and Gross Profit have decreased during the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to March 31, 2013, due to our inability to timely secure adequate production capital in the latter half of 2013. Accordingly, we were unable to accept all of the orders received.
Operating expenses have decreased during the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to March 31, 2013, due primarily to the reduction in payroll expenses and benefits. Professional fees increased due to the legal, accounting and consulting fees we incurred in going public.
We have incurred losses and have not recorded any income tax expense or benefit. Accordingly, our net loss is driven by our gross profit, and operating and other expenses.
We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Net cash used in operating activities decreased primarily due to our reduction in working capital. Our investing activity relates primarily to purchasing fixed assets. Cash provided by financing activities reflects our net debt borrowings.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses. We continually evaluate the accounting policies and estimates used to prepare the condensed consolidated financial statements. The estimates are based on historical experience and assumptions believed to be reasonable under current facts and circumstances. Actual amounts and results could differ from these estimates made by management. Certain accounting policies that require significant management estimates and are deemed critical to our results of operations and financial position include: a) useful lives of long-lived assets, b) assumptions used in valuing our equity-based instruments, such as warrants for common stock, c) assessing future cash flows and potential impairments to long-lived assets, and d) recoverability of accounts receivable.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
Pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K (§ 229.305(e)), we are not required to provide the information required by this Item we are a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1).
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
It is management's responsibility to establish and maintain adequate internal control over all financial reporting pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). Our management has reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2014. Following this review and evaluation, management determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
We assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2014. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.
Based upon management’s assessment using the criteria contained in COSO, and for the reasons discussed below, our management has concluded that, as of March 31, 2014, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective.
Based on its evaluation, the Company's Principal Executive Officer identified a major deficiency that existed in the design or operation of our internal control over financial reporting that it considers to be a “material weakness”. The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board has defined a material weakness as a “significant deficiency or combination of significant deficiencies that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.”
The deficiency in our internal control is related to a lack of segregation of duties due to our limited in-house finance and accounting resources. To remedy this deficiency, management plans to implement enhanced segregation of duties and financial oversight in 2014.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that could affect these internal controls subsequent to the date of their most recent evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to deficiencies and material weaknesses.

In instances described above where we issued securities in reliance upon Regulation D, we relied upon Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act. These stockholders who received the securities in such instances made representations that (a) the stockholder is acquiring the securities for his, her or its own account for investment and not for the account of any other person and not with a view to or for distribution, assignment or resale in connection with any distribution within the meaning of the Securities Act, (b) the stockholder agrees not to sell or otherwise transfer the purchased shares unless they are registered under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or an exemption or exemptions from such registration are available, (c) the stockholder has knowledge and experience in financial and business matters such that he, she or it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in us, (d) the stockholder had access to all of our documents, and books pertaining to the investment and was provided the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers regarding the terms and conditions of the offering and to obtain any additional information which we possessed or were able to acquire without unreasonable effort and expense, and (e) the stockholder has no need for the liquidity in its investment in us and could afford the complete loss of such investment.

In instances described above where we relied upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act in issuing securities, our reliance was based upon the following factors: (a) the issuance of the securities was an isolated private transaction by us which did not involve a public offering; (b) there were only a limited number of offerees; (c) there were no subsequent or contemporaneous public offerings of the securities by us; (d) the securities were not broken down into smaller denominations; and (e) the negotiations for the sale of the stock took place directly between the offeree and us.
In instances described above where we issued securities to IBC Funds, LLC, we relied upon an exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as the issuance of securities was in exchange for bona fide outstanding claims, where the terms and conditions of such issuance were approved by a court after a hearing upon the fairness of such terms and conditions.
