Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
1. | Organization |
MyDx, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) (formally known as Brista Corp.) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 20, 2012. The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, CDx, Inc., was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on September 16, 2013.

3. | Going Concern |
The Company has adopted ASU No. 2014-15,“Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (“ASU 2014-15”).
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
As reflected in the condensed consolidated Financial Statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit at June 30, 2017, and a net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2017. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company is attempting to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenues; however, its cash position may not be sufficient to support its daily operations. The Company has a limited operating history and its prospects are subject to risks, expenses and uncertainties frequently encountered by early-stage companies. These risks include, but are not limited to, the uncertainty of availability of financing and the uncertainty of achieving future profitability. Management anticipates that the Company will be dependent, for the near future, on investment capital to fund operating expenses. The Company intends to position itself so that it may be able to raise funds through the capital markets. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available at terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. Failure to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, raise capital or reduce certain discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to achieve its intended business objectives. We reported negative cash flow from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. It is anticipated that we will continue to report negative operating cash flow in future periods, likely until one or more of our products generates sufficient revenue to cover our operating expenses. If any of the warrants are exercised, all net proceeds of the warrant exercise will be used for working capital to fund negative operating cash flow.
4 |
Our cash balance of $108,252 at June 30, 2017 will not be sufficient to fund our operations for the next 12 months. Additionally, if we are unable to generate sufficient revenues to pay our expenses, we will need to raise additional funds to continue our operations. We have historically financed our operations through private equity and debt financings. The delays in our ability to ship products and generate revenues may have adversely affected our capital raising opportunities. We do not have any commitments for financing at this time, and financing may not be available to us on favorable terms, if at all. If we are unable to obtain debt or equity financing in amounts sufficient to fund our operations, if necessary, we will be forced to suspend or curtail our operations. In that event, current stockholders would likely experience a loss of most or all of their investment. Additional funding that we do obtain may be dilutive to the interests of existing stockholders.
The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
4. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Basis of Presentation
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 20, 2017, as amended on April 26, 2017.
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s statement of financial position as of June 30, 2017 and the Company’s results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016. The results for the six months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017. All references to June 30, 2017 or to the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated finance 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 of assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such management estimates include allowance for doubtful accounts, estimates of product returns, warranty expense, inventory valuation, valuation allowances of deferred taxes, stock-based compensation expenses and fair value of warrants. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on assumptions that it believes are reasonable. The Company assesses these estimates on a regular basis; however, actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
5 |
Concentration of Risk Related to Third-party Suppliers
We depend on a limited number of third-party suppliers for the materials and components required to manufacture our products. A delay or interruption by our suppliers may harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition, and could also adversely affect our future profit margins. In addition, the lead time needed to establish a relationship with a new supplier can be lengthy, and we may experience delays in meeting demand in the event we must change or add new suppliers. Our dependence on our suppliers exposes us to numerous risks, including but not limited to the following: our suppliers may cease or reduce production or deliveries, raise prices, or renegotiate terms; we may be unable to locate a suitable replacement supplier on acceptable terms or on a timely basis, or at all; and delays caused by supply issues may harm our reputation, frustrate our customers, and cause them to turn to our competitors for future needs.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company recognizes and discloses the fair value of its assets and liabilities using a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). Each level of input has different levels of subjectivity and difficulty involved in determining fair value.
Level 1 | Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurable date. | |
Level 2 | Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability through corroboration with market data at the measurement date. | |
Level 3 | Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. |
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s loan payable and convertible notes payable approximates fair value based upon borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms.
Cash
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the Company held no cash equivalents.
The Company’s policy is to place its cash with high credit quality financial instruments and institutions and limit the amounts invested with any one financial institution or in any type of instrument. Deposits held with banks may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. The Company has not experienced any losses on its deposits of cash.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and are not interest bearing. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The Company makes ongoing assumptions relating to the collectability of its accounts receivable in its calculation of the allowance for doubtful accounts. In determining the amount of the allowance, the Company makes judgments about the creditworthiness of customers based on ongoing credit evaluations and assesses current economic trends affecting its customers that might impact the level of credit losses in the future and result in different rates of bad debts than previously seen. The Company also considers its historical level of credit losses. As of June 30, 2017 and 2016, there was no allowance for doubtful accounts.
6 |
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market value. Inventory is determined to be salable based on demand forecast within a specific time horizon, generally eighteen months or less. Inventory in excess of salable amounts and inventory which is considered obsolete based upon changes in existing technology is written off. At the point of recognition, a new lower cost basis for that inventory is established and subsequent changes in facts and circumstances do not result in the restoration or increase in that new cost basis.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the useful life as follows:
Internal-use software | 3 years | |
Equipment | 3 to 5 years | |
Computer equipment | 3 to 7 years | |
Furniture and fixtures | 5 to 7 years | |
Leasehold improvements | Shorter of life of asset or lease |
Accounting for Website Development Costs
The Company capitalizes certain external and internal costs, including internal payroll costs, incurred in connection with the development of its website. These costs are capitalized beginning when the Company has entered the application development stage and cease when the project is substantially complete and is ready for its intended use. The website development costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of three years.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the condensed balance sheets and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposed group classified as held for sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the condensed balance sheets.
Debt Discount and Debt Issuance Costs
Debt discounts and debt issuance costs incurred in connection with the issuance of debt are capitalized and amortized to interest expense based on the related debt agreements using the straight-line method. Unamortized discounts are netted against long-term debt.
Derivative Liability
In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Paragraph 815-15-25-1 the conversion feature and certain other features are considered embedded derivative instruments, such as a conversion reset provision, a penalty provision and redemption option, which are to be recorded at their fair value as its fair value can be separated from the convertible note and its conversion is independent of the underlying note value. The Company records the resulting discount on debt related to the conversion features at initial transaction and amortizes the discount using the effective interest rate method over the life of the debt instruments. The conversion liability is then marked to market each reporting period with the resulting gains or losses shown in the statements of operations.
In circumstances where the embedded conversion option in a convertible instrument is required to be bifurcated and there are also other embedded derivative instruments in the convertible instrument that are required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single, compound derivative instrument.
7 |
The Company follows ASC Section 815-40-15 (“Section 815-40-15”) to determine whether an instrument (or an embedded feature) is indexed to the Company’s own stock. Section 815-40-15 provides that an entity should use a two-step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instrument’s contingent exercise and settlement provisions. The adoption of Section 815-40-15 has affected the accounting for (i) certain freestanding warrants that contain exercise price adjustment features and (ii) convertible bonds issued by foreign subsidiaries with a strike price denominated in a foreign currency.
The Company evaluates its convertible debt, options, warrants or other contracts, if any, to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for in accordance with paragraph 810-10-05-4 and Section 815-40-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the embedded derivative is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and recorded as either an asset or a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the consolidated statement of operations as other income or expense. Upon conversion, exercise or cancellation of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the date of conversion, exercise or cancellation and then that the related fair value is reclassified to equity.
The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to compute the fair value of the derivative and to mark to market the fair value of the derivative at each balance sheet date. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model includes subjective input assumptions that can materially affect the fair value estimates. The expected volatility is estimated based on the most recent historical period of time equal to the remaining contractual term of the instrument granted.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided in accordance with ASC No. 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the period of deferred tax assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
The Company is no longer subject to tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2013.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from product sales upon shipment as long as evidence of an arrangement exists, the fee is fixed or determinable, collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured and title and risk of loss have passed. If those criteria are not met, then revenue will not be recognized until all of the criteria are satisfied.
Product Returns
For any product in its original, undamaged and unmarked condition, with its included accessories and packaging along with the original receipt (or gift receipt) within 30 days of the date the customer receives the product, the Company will exchange it or offer a refund based upon the original payment method.
Customer Deposits
The Company accounts for funds received from crowdfunding campaigns and pre-sales as a liability on the consolidated balance sheets as the investments made entitle the investor to apply these funds towards future shipments once the product has been developed and available for commercial use.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. These costs consist primarily of salaries and direct payroll-related costs. It also includes purchased materials and services provided by independent contractors, software developed by other companies and incorporated into or used in the development of our final products. Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were $27,724 and $145,885, respectively. Research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were $48,007 and $241,092, respectively.

Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are charged to sales and marketing expenses and general and administrative expenses as incurred. Advertising expenses, which are recorded in sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses, totaled $476,347 and $58,319 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Advertising expenses totaled $673,393 and $203,612 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”(“ASC 718”) which establishes financial accounting and reporting standards for stock-based employee compensation. It defines a fair value based method of accounting for an employee stock option or similar equity instrument. Accordingly, stock-based compensation is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations as an operating expense over the requisite service period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model adjusted for the estimated forfeiture rate for the respective grant to determine the estimated fair value of stock-based compensation arrangements on the date of grant and expenses this value ratably over the requisite service period of the stock option. The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions. Because the Company’s stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models may not provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of the Company’s stock options. In addition, management will continue to assess the assumptions and methodologies used to calculate estimated fair value of stock-based compensation. Circumstances may change and additional data may become available over time, which could result in changes to these assumptions and methodologies for future grants, and which could materially impact the Company’s fair value determination.
The Company accounts for share-based payments to non-employees in accordance with ASC 505-50 “Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees”. If the equity instrument is a stock option, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value. Assumptions used to value the equity instruments are consistent with equity instruments issued to employees as the terms of the awards are similar. The Company recognizes the fair value of the equity instruments as expense over the term of the service agreement and revalues that fair value at each reporting period over the vesting periods of the equity instruments.
Warranty
The Company provides a limited warranty for its analyzers and sensors for a period of 1 year from the date of shipment that such goods will be free from material defects in material and workmanship. The Company has assessed the historical claims and, to date, warranty claims have not been significant. The Company will continue to assess the need to record a warranty accrual at the time of sale going forward.
Collaborative Arrangements
The Company and its collaborative partners are active participants in the collaborative arrangements and both parties are exposed to significant risks and rewards depending on the commercial success of the activity. The Company records all expenses related to collaborative arrangements as research and development expense in the consolidated statements of operations as incurred.
Net Loss per Share
Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents. In periods when losses are reported, which is the case for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

The Company had the following common stock equivalents at June 30, 2017 and 2016:
June 30, 2017 | June 30, 2016 | |||||||

Subsequent events
The Company has evaluated events that occurred subsequent to June 30, 2017 and through the date the financial statements were issued.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto have been reclassified where necessary to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications did not affect the prior period total assets, total liabilities, stockholders’ deficit, net loss or net cash used in operating activities.
Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
In May 2014, the FASB issued a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard that will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The standard’s core principle (issued as ASU 2014-09 by the FASB), is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. These may include identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. The new guidance must be adopted using either a full retrospective approach for all periods presented in the period of adoption or a modified retrospective approach. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, which defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year, and would allow entities the option to early adopt the new revenue standard as of the original effective date. This ASU is effective for public reporting companies for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The adoption of ASU 2014-15 did not materially impact our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.” ASU 2014-15 provides guidance on management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. For each reporting period, management will be required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date the financial statements are issued. The amendments in ASU 2014-15 are effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual and interim periods thereafter. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has elected to adopt the methodologies prescribed by ASU 2014-15. The adoption of ASU 2014-15 had no material effect on its financial position or results of operations.
In March 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The amendments in this ASU require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this ASU. The amendments are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the amendments is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The amendments should be applied on a retrospective basis, wherein the balance sheet of each individual period presented should be adjusted to reflect the period-specific effects of applying the new guidance. Upon transition, an entity is required to comply with the applicable disclosures for a change in an accounting principle. These disclosures include the nature of and reason for the change in accounting principle, the transition method, a description of the prior-period information that has been retrospectively adjusted, and the effect of the change on the financial statement line items (i.e., debt issuance cost asset and the debt liability). The Company adopted ASU 2015-03 during the year ended December 31, 2016. The adoption of ASU 2015-03 had no material effect on its financial position or results of operations or cash flows.
10 |
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”, which modifies existing requirements regarding measuring inventory at the lower of cost or market. Under current inventory standards, the market value requires consideration of replacement cost, net realizable value and net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin. The new guidance replaces market with net realizable value defined as estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. This eliminates the need to determine and consider replacement cost or net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin when measuring inventory. The standard is required to be adopted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that annual period, which is our fiscal year 2018. The amendment is to be applied prospectively with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2015-11 had no material effect on its financial position or results of operations or cash flows.
In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (topic 718). The FASB issued this update to improve the accounting for employee share-based payments and affect all organizations that issue share-based payment awards to their employees. Several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions are simplified, including: (a) income tax consequences; (b) classification of awards as either equity or liabilities; and (c) classification on the statement of cash flows. The updated guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the update is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2016-09 had no material effect on its financial position or results of operations or cash flows.
In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients”, which narrowly amended the revenue recognition guidance regarding collectability, noncash consideration, presentation of sales tax and transition and is effective during the same period as ASU 2014-09. The adoption of ASU 2016-12 had no material effect on its financial position or results of operations or cash flows.
Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,“Leases (Topic 842).” Under ASU 2016-02, lessees will be required to recognize, for all leases of 12 months or more, a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. Additionally, the guidance requires improved disclosures to help users of financial statements better understand the nature of an entity’s leasing activities. This ASU is effective for public reporting companies for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted, and must be adopted using a modified retrospective approach. The Company is in the process of evaluating the effect of the new guidance on its condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing” (topic 606). In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross verses Net)” (topic 606). These amendments provide additional clarification and implementation guidance on the previously issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The amendments in ASU 2016-10 provide clarifying guidance on materiality of performance obligations; evaluating distinct performance obligations; treatment of shipping and handling costs; and determining whether an entity’s promise to grant a license provides a customer with either a right to use an entity’s intellectual property or a right to access an entity’s intellectual property. The amendments in ASU 2016-08 clarify how an entity should identify the specified good or service for the principal versus agent evaluation and how it should apply the control principle to certain types of arrangements. The adoption of ASU 2016-10 and ASU 2016-08 is to coincide with an entity’s adoption of ASU 2014-09, which we intend to adopt for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard.
11 |
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15,“Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments” (“ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 will make eight targeted changes to how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The new standard will require adoption on a retrospective basis unless it is impracticable to apply, in which case it would be required to apply the amendments prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-15 on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16,“Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory”,which eliminates the exception that prohibits the recognition of current and deferred income tax effects for intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory until the asset has been sold to an outside party. The updated guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the update is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18,“Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)”, requiring that the statement of cash flows explain the change in the total cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted. The provisions of this guidance are to be applied using a retrospective approach which requires application of the guidance for all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard.
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, when adopted, will have a material effect on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Litigation
In the normal course of business, the Company may be subject to other legal proceedings, lawsuits and other claims. Although the ultimate aggregate amount of probable monetary liability or financial impact with respect to these matters is subject to many uncertainties and is therefore not predictable with assurance, the Company’s management believes that any monetary liability or financial impact to the Company from these other matters, individually and in the aggregate, would not be material to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
However, there can be no assurance with respect to such result, and monetary liability or financial impact to the Company from these other matters could differ materially from those projected.
12. | Subsequent Events |
Lawsuit Against Jerome Dewald and Skip Sanzeri
On July 14, 2017, the Company and its Chief Executive Officer, Daniel Yazbeck, filed a complaint in Superior Court of California against Jerome Dewald, Skip Sanzeri and twenty-five (25) persons or entities whose true identities are currently unknown to the Company (collectively, the “Defendants”). Mr. Sanzeri was the Chief Operating Officer of the Company in 2014 and 2015. The Defendants allegedly made false statements about the Company, its products, and Mr. Yazbeck on online investor platforms and at investor events. In addition, the Defendants allegedly, by sending a demand letter for $205,000, attempted to extort money from the Company. Based on these alleged actions, the causes of action in the lawsuit are: (i) trade libel; (ii) defamation; (iii) false light; (iv) intentional interference with prospective business relations; (v) negligent interference with prospective business relations; (vi) intentional interference with contract; (vii) unfair competition pursuant to a California statute; (viii) civil extortion; and (viii) breach of fiduciary duty. The Company is seeking general damages of $29 million, special damages, punitive damages, an injunction to prevent the Defendants from engaging in the unlawful and unfair business practices alleged in the complaint, and reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs.
Crown Bridge Conversion of Promissory Note
On November 14, 2016, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) and Convertible Promissory Note in the original principal amount of $35,000 (the “Note”) with Crown Bridge Partners, LLC (“Crown”) pursuant to which Crown funded $31,500 to the Company after the deduction of a $3,500 original issue discount and $1,500 for legal fees. The Note bore interest at the rate of 8% and was to be repaid on or before November 14, 2017 (the “Maturity Date”). Through 180 days after the date of the Note’s issuance (the “Prepayment Deadline”), the Company could repay the Note at a premium to the amount outstanding at the time of prepayment (as determined in the Note). The Note was able to be converted by Crown at any time after the six (6) month anniversary of the Note into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to 50% of the market price (as determined in the Note).
On April 30, 2017, the Company sent an initial payoff request to Crown so that it could repay the amount due pursuant to the Note (including all penalties and interest) prior to the Prepayment Deadline. Subsequently, between May 9th and June 4th, the Company sent further requests for such wire instructions. Despite such requests, on July 3, 2017, Crown converted $36,749.04 (the entire amount due pursuant to the Note including all penalties and interest) into 14,699,616 shares of the Company’s common stock. In light of the Company’s notification required in the SPA to repay the Note pursuant to its terms, the Company believes Crown may have breached the terms of the Note.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, MyDx’s audited annual financial statements and the related notes thereto as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 20, 2017, as amended on April 26, 2017. This discussion contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, as described under the heading “Forward-Looking Statements” in this quarterly report. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. For additional information regarding these risks and uncertainties, please see the disclosure under the heading “Risk Factors” elsewhere in this quarterly report.
The Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations below is based upon only the financial performance of MyDx. MyDx’s financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and the audited results of operations of MyDx for the period ended December 31, 2016.
We believe that our assumptions are based upon reasonable data derived from and known about our business and operations and the business and operations of the Company. No assurances are made that actual results of operations or the results of our future activities will not differ materially from its assumptions. Factors that could cause differences include, but are not limited to, expected market demand for the Company’s products and services and competition.
The Merger between MyDx, Inc. and CDx, Inc. (“CDx”), consummated on April 30, 2015, was treated as a reverse acquisition for financial accounting and reporting purposes. As such, CDx is treated as the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes while MyDx, Inc. was treated as the acquired entity for accounting and financial reporting purposes. Further, as a result, the historical financial statements that will be reflected in the Company’s future financial statements filed with the SEC will be those of CDx, and the Company’s assets, liabilities and results of operations will be consolidated with the assets, liabilities and results of operations of CDx. Accordingly, for clarity and continuity, we are presenting the historical financial statements for CDx, Inc. for the periods presented.
Overview
MyDx is a science and technology company that develops and deploys products and services in the following focus areas:
1) | Consumer Products – smart devices and consumables |
2) | Data Analytics – pre-clinical chemical analysis and patient feedback ecosystem |
3) | Biopharmaceuticals– identifying ‘green Active Pharmaceutical IngredientsTM, (gAPITM) and corresponding formulations |
4) | Software as a Service (SaaS) – Software services for prescribers, patient groups, cultivators, and regulators |
We are committed to addressing areas of critical national need to promote public safety, transparency and regulation in the various markets we serve.
The Company’s first product, MyDx®, also known as “My Diagnostic”, is a multiuse hand-held chemical analyzer made for consumers and professional users which feeds our data analytics platform and SaaS business. MyDx is intended to allow consumers to Trust & Verify® what they put into their mind and body by using our science and technology to test for pesticides in food, chemicals in water, toxins in the air, and the safety and potency of cannabis samples, which is our initial focus.
The Company’s founder, sole officer and sole member of the Board of Directors, Daniel Yazbeck, is an experienced executive with over 15 years of product research, development and commercialization experience including at Fortune 500 companies. Mr. Yazbeck was a scientist for Pfizer Pharmaceuticals, specializing in Chemical R&D technologies that identify and manufacture Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients at scale using green chemistry and a strategic product and market developer for Panasonic, engineering new consumer electronic products and deploying them with strategic partners in the healthcare industry. Mr. Yazbeck is also a seasoned asset-backed investor at Yazbeck Investments and holds a master of science degree from McGill University.
MyDx, and its wholly owned subsidiary, CDx, has successfully executed on a four-year business plan. The Company has received cash investment of approximately $9 million to date. In 2013, CDx was established with $210,000 in seed funding and resource support from an entity affiliated with Mr. Yazbeck to secure strategic development partners and establish a market, product and initial IP portfolio. In 2014, CDx developed, protected, manufactured and marketed the beta version of its first product, the MyDx Analyzer, through a crowdfunding campaign that launched in January 2014 as well as a financing round where $600,000 of shares of CDx, Inc. Series A Preferred Stock was sold through April 2014 and $2 million in convertible notes were issued through September 2014. The Beta product was released in the first quarter of 2015, at which point $4,800,000 of shares of Series B Preferred Stock in CDx, Inc. was sold followed by the completion of the Merger with MyDx, Inc., whose shares of common started to trade on the OTCQB marketplace. The official product was released in the third quarter of 2015 and the Company received an additional $250,000 loan from the same entity affiliated with Mr. Yazbeck to help finance its operations in the fourth quarter. In 2016, we believe the Company continued to penetrate its market and increased brand recognition. Since the MyDx Analyzer’s launch in 2015 it has generated close to $1.2M in revenues . In addition, in 2016, the Company launched additional products that tests for pesticides in food and chemicals in water and financed the company’s operations primarily through the issuance of convertible debt, the majority of which had been satisfied as of March 31, 2017.

Business Plan
The Company is currently focused on 4 key business segments to service the cannabis industry.
1. | Consumer Products |
Smart Devices & Consumables
1) | CannaDxTM |
● | The cannabis industry’s first hand-held cannabis sensor and analyzer with disposable single use inserts. | |
● | Comes with a mobile app that acts as a ‘virtual budtender’. | |
● | Analyzes cannabis sample and provides a Total Canna ProfileTM (TCP), a more complete chemical profile to include THC and the most prevalent cannabinoids and terpenes found in cannabis plants. | |
● | Cannabinoids such as THC and CBD have been reported to bind the CB1 and CB2 receptors found throughout the human body and have been reported to provide relief to an array of symptoms, including pain, nausea, and inflammation to name a few. Terpenes, which have been reported to compound the effects of cannabinoids on the body via an “Entourage Effect”, are also important in determining the overall physiological effects various cannabis chemical profiles. | |
● | Enables users to log their ailments and side effects and tie those back to the exact chemical profile | |
● | Provides strain recommendations based on desired “relief” input based on crowdsourced community feedback. |
2) | Eco Smart PenTM and Other Delivery Devices |
● | MyDx plans to develop additional smart hardware that gather user data, such as the Eco Smart Pen | |
● | Integrated with Bluetooth as well as other technologies that will allow for mobile-app control, dose restrictions, safety controls, and usage statistics. | |
● | We plan to OEM these product to third-party customers |
3) | MyDx Tablet Edition |
● | MyDx plans to develop he first touchscreen kitchen tablet in the market with integrated MyDx sensor reading capability | |
● | Sensor lineup to include OrganaDx, AquaDx, and AeroDx. | |
● | Company plans to offer CannaDx data portal management ability in MyDx Tablet Edition . |
MyDx plans to evaluate the 510K FDA device approval process to leverage its consumer products and the ability of insurance companies to support sales of its smart devices and generate HIPPA compliant crowdsourced data.
2. | Data Analytics |
Pre-Clinical Chemical Analysis and Patient Feedback Ecosystem
MyDx will have four classes of data and algorithms:
1) | User Data |
● | When users download the CannaDx mobile app, we may ask them put in personal details such as gender, location, height, weight, age etc. that we maintain while complying with HIPAA. |
30 |
2) | Chemical Composition Data |
● | This information is sourced from a number of inputs including the CannaDx Handheld’s Total Canna Profile (TCP), partner laboratories analyses, and branded pre-tested concentrates. |
3) | User Feedback |
● | Provided by users in our CannaDx mobile app as they try various products and record their experiences with those products. |
4) | Usage Statistics |
● | We will capture type, frequency, dosage, ailments relieved, and side effects. |
MyDx plans to leverage this data, which combined is referred to as the Total Canna ProfileTM (TCP), combined with our proprietary algorithms, to develop key insights into user behavior based on unique chemical profiles. Our goal is to track how a specific sample is expected to help relieve certain ailments and to validate the results.
3. | Biopharmaceutical |
Identifying ‘green Active Pharmaceutical IngredientsTM’ (gAPITM) and corresponding formulations
1) | Sale and License of Product Formulations |
● | MyDx plans to work with third party customers to license crowdsourced formulated chemical profiles that are expected to address a specific “relief” desired using its own proprietary formulas derived from our extensive dataset and algorithms. |
2) | Sale of green Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (gAPITM) |
● | This division will also look to provide an organic source of extracted green Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (gAPITM), such as a predefined terpene formulation, for consumer and industrial use. | |
● | Given that certain classes of gAPI’s such hemp derived CBD and terpenes might offer “relief” without the “high” THC provides, MyDx intends to partner with leaders in the industry to offer branded products without THC, akin to a “virgin” cocktail, if it finds that these formulations offer the benefits desired and the legal framework to sell them is viable. |
4. | SaaS (Software as a Service) |
Software services for prescribers, patient groups, cultivators, and regulators
1) | MyDx App |
● | Available in iOS and Android and controls the MyDx Analyzer | |
● | Tracks patient tested samples and physiological feedback | |
● | Prints a Certificate of Analysis, which includes patient feedback | |
● | Offers patients groups and their doctors with OEM software to track what the community is experiencing | |
● | Centrally hosted in our secure cloud based server | |
● | Will offer in App purchases for additional software subscription features |
2) | Software to Support Laboratory Marketing, Customer Service and Data Aggregation |
● | MyDx will offer what we believe will be the premier lead generator and outsourced services provider for cannabis testing labs | |
● | Through certain assets MyDx expects to develop or acquire, as well as leads generated from our handheld analysis and smart devices, we believe MyDx will be positioned to become a world leader in cannabis laboratory marketing and services and as the largest “data holder” of tested cannabis and the associated chemical profiles tied to the ailment therapy. |

For the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company had product revenue of $125,810 and $211,382, respectively. The increase in revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to 2017 correlated to a large order from its newly signed distribution partner in that quarter as well as an exceptionally large volume of global medical coverage for that quarter compared to the same quarter in 2017.
Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Profit
Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were 78% and 59%, respectively. The gross margin was positively affected by a decrease in accrued royalties, as well as the increase in the amount of Grower’s Packages sold as well as more direct to consumer sales compared to sales via distributors.
Operating Expenses
For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company incurred operating expenses in the amount of $807,658 compared to $990,149 for the three months ended June 30, 2016. These operating expenses were composed of research and development costs, sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses. The decrease mainly resulted from the decrease of general and administrative expenses and research and development costs which were partially offset by the increase in sales and marketing activities.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses primarily consist of engineering and product development, incurred in the design, development, testing and enhancement of our products. For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company expended $27,724 for various research and development projects for hardware, database, software and sensor development as compared to $145,885 for the three months ended June 30, 2016.

For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company expended $303,587 as compared to $785,945 for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease of $482,358, or 61%, resulted primarily from decreases in accounting fees, investor relation fees, legal fees, and miscellaneous general administrative expenses. These decreases were offset by an increase in consulting fees.
32 |
Other income (expense)
Other income increase by $3,787,328, resulted primarily from the decrease of interest expense related to the convertible notes payable, an increase in a gain on fair value of derivative liability, a gain on settlement of debt, and a gain on forfeiture of technology transfer deposit. These were offset by an increase in derivative expense.

The increase in revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to 2017 correlated to a large order from its newly signed distribution partner in that quarter as well as an exceptionally large volume of global media coverage for that quarter compared to the same quarter in 2017.
Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Profit
Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were 71% and 53%, respectively. The gross margin was positively affected by a decrease in accrued royalties.
Operating Expenses
For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company incurred operating expenses in the amount of $1,586,014 compared to $1,584,962 for the six months ended June 30, 2016. These operating expenses were composed of research and development costs, sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses. The increase mainly resulted from the increase in sales and marketing activities which were partially offset by the decrease of general and administrative expenses and research and development costs.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses primarily consist of engineering and product development, incurred in the design, development, testing and enhancement of our products. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company expended $48,007 for various research and development projects for hardware, database, software and sensor development as compared to $241,092 for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease of $193,085, or 80%, resulted primarily from the Company taking a more economical and streamlined outsourcing approach to developing new products (such as the Eco Smart PenTM) as well as improving existing products, including CannaDxTM, AquaDxTM and OrganaDxTM.
Sales and Marketing Expenses
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of consulting fees for third-party services and general marketing expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company expended $673,393 as compared to $203,612 for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The increase of $469,781, or 231%, resulted primarily from the Company expanding brand awareness surrounding its new product lines.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, wages and benefits, consulting fees, legal fees, accounting fees and general administrative expenses.
For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company expended $864,614 as compared to $1,140,258 for the six months ended June 30, 2016. The decrease of $275,644, or 24%, resulted primarily from decreases in accounting fees, investor relation fees, legal fees, and miscellaneous general administrative expenses. These decreases were offset by an increase in consulting fees.

Other income (expense)
Other (expense) increase by $567,301, resulted primarily from the increase in interest expense related to the convertible notes payable and derivative expense These were offset by an increase in of a gain on fair value of derivative liability, a gain on settlement of debt, and a gain on forfeiture of technology transfer deposit.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since its inception, capital raised by the Company has been used primarily for the Company’s research and development efforts and to support its operations. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had remaining cash of $108,252 with a net working capital deficit of $2,000,692. As a result of the Company’s significant operating expenditures and the lack of significant product sales revenue, we expect to incur losses from operations for the near future and will be required to seek additional capital to sustain our operations.
It is anticipated that we will continue to report negative operating cash flow in future periods, likely until one or more of our products generate sufficient revenue to cover our operating expenses. If any of the warrants are exercised, all net proceeds of the warrant exercise will be used for working capital to fund negative operating cash flow.
Our cash balance of $108,252 will not be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months. Additionally, if we are unable to generate sufficient revenues to pay our expenses, we will need to raise additional funds to continue our operations. We have historically financed our operations through private equity and debt financings. Recent economic turmoil and severe lack of liquidity in the debt capital markets together with volatility and rapidly falling prices in the equity capital markets have severely and adversely affected capital raising opportunities. We do not have any commitments for financing at this time, and financing may not be available to us on favorable terms, if at all. If we are unable to obtain debt or equity financing in amounts sufficient to fund our operations, if necessary, we will be forced to suspend or curtail our operations. In that event, current stockholders would likely experience a loss of most or all of their investment. Additional funding that we do obtain may be dilutive to the interests of existing stockholders.
To the extent, we raise additional capital by issuing equity securities or obtaining borrowings convertible into equity, ownership dilution to existing stockholders will result and future investors may be granted rights superior to those of existing stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness or debt financing would result in increased fixed obligations and could also result in covenants that would restrict our operations. Our ability to obtain additional capital may depend on prevailing economic conditions and financial, business and other factors beyond our control. Economic crisis and disruptions in the U.S. and global financial markets may adversely impact the availability and cost of credit, as well as our ability to raise money in the capital markets. Instability in these market conditions may limit our ability to access the capital necessary to fund and grow our business. The Company cannot provide any assurances that it will be able to raise the additional capital needed to fund its operations, or if the Company is able to raise such additional capital, that any such financing will be on terms which are beneficial to the existing shareholders.

Net Cash (Used in) Operating Activities | $ | (191,022 | ) | $ | (365,289 | ) | ||

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities
Our primary uses of cash from operating activities include payments to consultants for research and development, compensation and related costs, legal and professional fees, computer and internet expenses and other general corporate expenditures.
Cash used in operating activities consist of net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items, primarily equity-based compensation expense, common stock issued in exchange for services, accretion of debt discount and debt issuance costs on convertible notes and the change in fair value of derivative liabilities due primarily to the mark to market of the Company’s derivatives embedded in the convertible notes, and a gain of settlement of liabilities during the six months ended June 30, 2017, as well as the effect of changes in working capital and other activities.
In addition, the net decrease in cash from changes in working capital activities from the six months ended June 30, 2016 to the six months ended June 30, 2017 primarily consisted of a decrease in inventory, a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets, an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses, and an increase in customer deposits.
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2017, financing activities provided cash of $261,071 which resulted from an increase of $245,500 in net proceeds from the issuance of common stock, net of issuance costs $135,000 in proceeds from note payable–related party. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, financing activities provided $411,978 which resulted from an increase of $190,608 in proceeds from the issuance of convertible notes payable, net of issuance costs and $271,370 in proceeds from issuance of asset based loans, net of issuance cost.
Going Concern
At June 30, 2017, we had an accumulated deficit of $28,531,916 and incurred a net loss of $2,132,464 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. We expect to incur further losses in the development of our business, all of which casts substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K.
Item 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS.
There have not been any material changes to our exposures to market risk during the six months ended June 30, 2017 that would require an update to the relevant disclosures provided in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 20, 2017, as amended on April 26, 2017 and Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 22, 2017.

Item 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as of June 30, 2017, due to the fact that management has not fully remediated the material weakness described in our Current Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 20, 2017, as amended on April 26, 2017.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2017, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
We must maintain effective internal controls to provide reliable financial reports and to detect and prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, we may not be able to manage our business as effectively as would be possible with an effective control system in place. We have not performed an in-depth analysis to determine if historical undiscovered failures of internal controls exist, and may in the future discover areas of our internal control that need improvement.
We have been assessing our internal controls to identify areas that need improvement. We are in the process of implementing changes to internal controls, but have not yet completed implementing these changes. Failure to implement these changes to our internal controls or any others that it identifies as necessary to maintain an effective system of internal controls could harm our operating results and cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information. Any such loss of confidence would have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock.
For the year ended December 31, 2016, we and our independent registered public accounting firm identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting due to the Company not maintaining a sufficient complement of personnel with an appropriate level of accounting knowledge and experience in the application of accounting for warrants to purchase common and preferred stock issued in connection with convertible notes payable and convertible preferred stock and accounting for non-employee stock options. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. If the Company does not address the material weaknesses, we may not be able to manage our business as effectively as would be possible with an effective control system in place.
