DNA Testing Technologies
DNA testing generates genetic profile information by analyzing an organism’s unique genetic identity. The process of identifying unique variations in a genome is referred to as DNA testing. DNA testing is the standard method used for forensic identification, ancestry tracing and to confirm paternity and other family relationships.
11
We provide two types of DNA testing.
The first is composed of ancestral testing (both paternal and maternal), paternity testing (informational and legal), prenatal gender testing, and twin diagnostic testing.
The second tests for disease predisposition. These tests can identify a person’s genetic risk for cancer, heart conditions, inherited conditions, nutrition, fitness response, and drug response to medication.
A DNA profile can be determined from any type of biological specimen containing nuclear DNA, including blood or a tissue sample, such as a cheek swab or saliva.
DNA testing currently used for identity purposes examines specific sequences of DNA that exhibit variability between different individuals. Our tests use SNP genotyping, DNA sequencing and STR markers.
SNP Genotyping
A SNP is a Single Nucleotide Polymorphism. These are single base pairs in a genome that exhibit variation across the human population. There are two applications a SNP can be used for, one is whole genome association studies and the other is point mutation. In whole genome association studies, large amounts of data in the form of SNPs are gathered from a sample of people. Depending on what the target of the study is, associations can be made based on a person’s SNP profile. Here is a fictitious example: a person with an “A” base at position 765,659 on chromosome 11 has a 100 times higher likelihood of developing a rare form of cancer than a person with a “T” base. This is not a definitive diagnosis but can definitely be helpful information for the patient in terms of preventative care.
A SNP marker can also detect a genetic disease like cystic fibrosis. In this case the SNP (or 3 base pairs in the case of cystic fibrosis) will show definitively if a person has the disease or not. The association is 100%.
DNA Sequencing
In DNA sequencing, 300-500 base pair stretches of DNA are elucidated to show a more complete picture. DNA sequencing is helpful in determining genetic disorders that SNP analysis alone cannot do. DNA sequencing is also critical in the development of SNP assays.
STR Markers
A short tandem repeat (“STR”) is a portion of DNA in which small sequences are repeated a variable number of times. Typically, there are 10 to 25 possible variations of a given human STR marker, with each person having just one or two variations. By looking at a moderate number of STRs, a DNA profile is determined that is virtually unique for each individual. STRs are the most common genetic markers used in the industry to determine identity in forensic, paternity and security applications.
Our Products
We sell the following types of DNA test kits to medical practitioners and directly to consumers located in Canada:
Prenatal Gender Test
The Prenatal Gender Test determines gender after 7 weeks of gestation. This test works by looking for a Y chromosome within the mother’s blood.
Paternity Test – Informational
The Paternity Test uses a cheek swab collected from both the child and the alleged father to determine parentage. DNA Testing Centers uses a 15 genetic marker analysis.
12
Paternity Test - Legal
The Paternity Test uses a cheek swab collected from both the child and the alleged father to determine parentage. DNA Testing Centers uses a 15 genetic marker analysis. This test must be performed at a medical clinic and is designed to be used in legal proceedings to establish paternity.
Kinship Testing
A DNA kinship test determines the relationship between two or more individuals to assess an alleged relationship such as full or half siblings, grandparents and aunts or uncles
Ancestral Origins Testing
The Ancestry test provides an estimated percentage of ancestry from four different population groups: Indigenous American, European, East Asian and Sub-Saharan African.
Genetic Predisposition
Genetic predisposition testing can identify a person’s predisposition for over 70 health conditions based upon their DNA.
Carrier Test Identification
Carrier test identification can identify individuals who carry a genetic disorder.
Drug Response Testing
Drug response testing identifies uses a person’s DNA to identify metabolism enzymes and transporters that have been linked to harmful reactions with common medical prescriptions.
The Testing Process
Our DNA test kits include swabs to collect a saliva sample, detailed instructions and pre-labeled packaging to send the sample to us. Upon receipt of the sample, it is registered in our database and sent to a third party laboratory to be interpreted. All tests are interpreted by either US laboratories accredited by CLIA and CAP or Canadian laboratories accredited by the Standard Council of Canada and CAP. After interpretation, the laboratory delivers the test results to us by email. Upon receipt, we enter the results in our customer database and deliver the results to the consumer by email.
The results for paternity tests and Y-chromosome relationship tests and grandparent or uncle or aunt tests, are interpreted within 4 to 5 business days of the lab’s receipt of the test. Ancestry origin tests are interpreted within 21 to 28 days of receipt. Genetic predisposition test including diet and fitness testing are interpreted within 28-42 days of receipt. We typically deliver the test results to the customer by email within 1 to 4 days after our receipt.
Dependence on a Few Customers
In the year ended December 31, 2014, two customers accounted for 30.44% of our revenues. The two customers represented 15.41% and 15.03% of our revenues. In the year ended December 31, 2015, three customers accounted 97.09% of the revenues, one at 74.20%, second one at 11.61% and third one at 11.28%. The remaining revenues were from several patients at a percentage of 2.91%. As a result, a material portion of our revenues are concentrated in a few customers. Should any of these three customers decrease or cease ordering products from us, our revenues and results of operations will be negatively affected.
13
Suppliers
We purchase our DNA test components from Pro Printing and Mailing Services Inc. located at 1235 Trafalgar Road, Oakville, Ontario, L6H 3P1 and assemble the products at our facilities, or we purchase finished kits previously from Pathway Genomics Lab, 4045 Sorrento Valley Boulevard, San Diego, CA 92121.
Marketing Strategy
Our first product sale was in April of 2010. We have not yet implemented a marketing strategy and all sales to date have been generated by our website or related parties. Sales generated from our website are placed by phone order. We presently offer our paternity testing kits for purchase on our website. We offer an online shopping cart featuring all of our products.
Our core marketing strategy is to brand our “DNA For Family” slogan for those seeking information that can be determined by DNA testing such as kinships and ancestry and our “DNA For Health” slogan for those seeking to improve their health by DNA testing to determine disease predisposition, nutrition and fitness testing.
We implemented our marketing plan in April of 2015.
·
In April of 2015, we began social media campaigns on Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin and other websites to market our products;
·
In May of 2015, we established Google AdWords and search engine optimization campaigns targeting consumers in Canada; and
·
In June of 2015, we offered incentive for medical practitioners, medical facilities and fitness centers.
·
In September of 2015, we offered event promotions to medical offices, clinics and fitness centers in Canada to demonstrate our products.
We also plan to attract medical practitioners and their customers through the existing relationships of our chief executive officer, president and director, Dr. Barjinder Sohal, a licensed physician, and Dr. Nitan Arora, our vice president and director, a chiropractic physician.
We believe that a marketing mix of social media, email advertising, print advertising in medical journals and health/ fitness publications, internet advertising and medical office and fitness center event promotions providing information and sample test kits is an optimal strategy to increase sales.
Raw Materials
Raw materials used by us in our DNA test kits are available from a variety of suppliers. We maintain a good relationship with our suppliers and do not anticipate that any of our suppliers will terminate their relationship with us in the near term. In the event, we are unable to obtain any of our raw materials from our suppliers, we believe that we could obtain alternative sources of any raw materials from other suppliers. We do not have contracts with our suppliers and we order our raw materials on an as-needed basis. We have not experienced any material adverse effect on our business as a result of shortages of raw materials. An unexpected interruption or a shortage in supply of raw materials could adversely affect our business derived from these products.
Research and Development
All of our research to date has been done by Dr. Barjinder Sohal, our chief executive officer, president and director who is a licensed physician in Canada and Dr. Nitan Arora, our vice president and director, who is a licensed chiropractic physician in Canada. We have not spent any amounts on research and development in the prior two years.
14
Property
We rent our office space at 2378 Parkhaven Boulevard, Oakville, Ontario, L6H 0E7, Canada from Navjot Nanda. This property is a lease of a 400 square foot office that is owned by Navjot Nanda, our treasurer, secretary, and director. We currently pay $1,000 per month, and occupy the premises on a month-to-month basis.
Seasonality
Our business is not affected by seasonal factors.
Intellectual Property
We have no registered or patented intellectual property. Trademarks and trade names distinguish the various companies from each other. If customers are unable to distinguish our products from those of other companies, we could lose sales to our competitors. We do not have any registered trademarks and trade names, so we only have common law rights with respect to infractions or infringements on its products. Many subtleties exist in product descriptions, offering and names that can easily confuse customers. The name of our principal products may be found in numerous variations of the name and descriptions in various media and product labels. This presents a risk of losing potential customers looking for our products and buying someone else’s because they cannot differentiate between them.
Overview
DNA Testing Centers, Corp., together with our wholly-owned subsidiary, DNA Centers of Canada, Ltd., are collectively referred to herein as the “Company,” “us” or “we.”
We are, incorporated in the State of Florida on July 3, 2014, to acquire our wholly owned subsidiary DNA Centers of Canada, Ltd., a Canadian corporation formed on April 6, 2009, to distribute
DNA testing products to consumers and medical practitioners in Canada.
We currently sell our DNA test kits directly to our customers. Our customers are both individuals and medical practitioners. Our DNA testing kits are sold directly to customers who place orders by telephone.
Going Concern
As reflected in the accompanying interim financial statements, we have accumulated deficit of $256,578 as of June 30, 2016, and realized negative cash flows from operations totaling $42,287 for the period ended June 30, 2016.We currently have limited liquidity, and has not completed its efforts to establish a stabilized source of revenues sufficient to cover operating costs over an extended period of time. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.
Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for us to continue as a going concern.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2015
For the three months ended June 30, 2016, we had revenues of $5,871 compared to $5,520 for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in revenues was due to increased sales.
15
Operating expenses increased to $82,994 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $42,074 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 primarily due to increases in stock based compensation and consulting fees.
We had a net loss of $77,123 for the three months ended June 30, 2016, which was more than the net loss of $36,554 for the three month ended June 30, 2015. The increase in net loss mainly resulted from the increase in stock based compensation and consulting fees.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2015
For the six months ended June 30, 2016, we had revenues of $9,351 compared to $10,398 for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease in revenues was due to a decrease in sales.
Operating expenses increased to $103,934 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $83,320 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 due to the increase in stock based compensation and consulting fees.
We had a net loss of $94,583 for the six months ended June 30, 2016, which was more than the net loss of $72,922 for the six month ended June 30, 2015. The increase in net loss mainly resulted from the increase in operating expenses.
Our net loss for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 are summarized as follows:
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $42,287, a decrease from the $72,726 net cash outflow during the six months ended June 30, 2015.
Investing Activities
Our company had no investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015.
Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $47,213 as compared to $48,187 provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2015.
Future Financings
We anticipate that we will have to generate enough revenue or enter into additional debt or equity financings to have enough cash to sustain operations for at least a year. However, we cannot make any assurance that we will be successful in generating enough revenue or obtain additional financings to sustain operations. Moreover, our independent auditors stated in their report on our audited financial statements that they have substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern without further financing.
17
Management may decide, based on market conditions, to seek future private placements if management believes such private placements are in the best interests of our company.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States necessarily requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. We regularly evaluate estimates and judgment based on historical experience and other relevant facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. This occurs only when the services are rendered.
Income taxes
Deferred tax asset and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. These assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reserve.
We have net operating loss carry-forwards available to reduce future taxable income. Future tax benefits for these operating loss carry-forwards are recognized to the extent that realization of these benefits is considered more likely than not. To the extent that we will not realize a future tax benefit, a valuation allowance is established.
Financial instrument
The carrying amount of our financial instruments, consisting of cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts and notes payable, short-term borrowings and certain other liabilities, approximates fair value since the stated rate of interest approximates a market rate of interest.
Foreign currency translation
Assets and liabilities of Canadian operations are translated into United States dollar equivalents using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated using the average exchange rates during each period. Adjustments resulting from the process of translating foreign functional currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in common shareholders' equity. Foreign currency transaction gain and losses are included in the current earnings and totaled $2,230 and $6,924 for the period ended June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.
18
Property and equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Major additions and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation of property and equipment is determined using the straight-line method over the useful life, which is estimated at ten years. Gains or losses on the sale or disposal of property and equipment are included in the statements of operations. Maintenance and repairs that do not extend the useful life of the assets are expensed as incurred.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets, including property and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The evaluation of recoverability is performed using undiscounted estimated net cash flows generated by the related asset. If an asset is deemed to be impaired, the amount of impairment is determined as the amount by which the net carrying value exceeds discounted estimated cash flows.
Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share
Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is determined by dividing the net income by the sum of (1) the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and (2) if not anti-dilutive, the effect of stock awards determined utilizing the treasury stock method. The dilutive effect of the outstanding awards for the period ended June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was -0- shares.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We do not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As a “smaller reporting company”, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our president (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
19
As of the end of our quarter covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our president (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, our president (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in providing reasonable assurance in the reliability of our reports as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal control over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.
The matters involving internal control over financial reporting that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee due to a lack of a majority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives of having segregation of the initiation of transactions, the recording of transactions and the custody of assets; and (3) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by our president (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) in connection with the review of our financial statements as of June 30, 2016.
To address the material weaknesses set forth in items (2) and (3) discussed above, management performed additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that the financial statements included herein fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of our company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the SEC that permit our company to provide only the management’s report in this quarterly report.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the period covered by this report there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
