Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management makes estimates that affect certain accounts including deferred income tax assets, accrued expenses, fair value of equity instruments and reserves for any other commitments or contingencies. Any adjustments applied to estimates are recognized in the period in which such adjustments are determined. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited financial statements and related notes have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2017. The balance sheet at December 31, 2016 has been derived from the audited financial statements at such date. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in ENDRA Life Sciences Inc. annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in Amendment No. 10 to the Companys Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC on May 1, 2017. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all cash on hand and in banks, including accounts in book overdraft positions, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had no cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. Inventory The Companys inventory is stated at the lower of cost or estimated realizable value, with cost primarily determined on a weighted-average cost basis on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The Company periodically determines whether a reserve should be taken for devaluation or obsolescence of inventory. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, no such reserve was taken. Capitalization of Fixed Assets The Company capitalizes expenditures related to property and equipment, subject to a minimum rule, that have a useful life greater than one year for: (1) assets purchased; (2) existing assets that are replaced, improved or the useful lives have been extended; or (3) all land, regardless of cost. Acquisitions of new assets, additions, replacements and improvements (other than land) costing less than the minimum rule in addition to maintenance and repair costs, including any planned major maintenance activities, are expensed as incurred. Capitalization of Intangible Assets The Company records the purchase of intangible assets not purchased in a business combination in accordance with the ASC Topic 350. Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the requirements of ASC 605-10-599, which directs that it should recognize revenue when (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists (contracts); (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the sellers price is fixed or determinable (per the customers contract); and (4) collectability is reasonably assured (based upon our credit policy). For products sold to end users revenue is recognized when title has passed to the customer and collectability is reasonably assured; and no further efforts are required. Future revenue from anticipated new products will follow this same policy. Income Taxes The Company utilizes ASC 740, Income Taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely-than-not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company generated a deferred tax asset through net operating loss carry-forwards. However, a valuation allowance of 100% has been established due to the uncertainty of the Companys realization of the net operating loss carry forward prior to its expiration. Research and Development Costs The Company follows ASC 730-10, Research and Development. Research and development costs are charged to the statement of operations as incurred. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company incurred $174,726 and $270,540 of expenses related to research and development costs, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company incurred $103,640 and $198,877 of expenses related to research and development costs, respectively. Net Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share The Company computes earnings per share under ASC Subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share (ASC 260-10). Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to the common stockholders (the numerator) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding (the denominator) during the reporting periods. Diluted loss per share is computed by increasing the denominator by the weighted average number of additional shares that could have been outstanding from securities convertible into common stock (using the treasury stock method), unless their effect on net loss per share is anti-dilutive. There were 3,176,262 and 1,346,441 potentially dilutive shares, which include outstanding common stock options, warrants, and convertible notes, as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The potential shares, which are excluded from the determination of basic and diluted net loss per share as their effect is anti-dilutive, are as follows: June 30, 2017 December 31, 2016 Options to purchase common stock 928,121 151,881 Warrants to purchase common stock 2,248,141 152,812 Convertible notes - 1,041,748 Potential equivalent shares excluded 3,176,262 1,346,441 Fair Value Measurements Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments require disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in our balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the amounts reported for cash, accrued liabilities and accrued interest approximated fair value because of their short maturities. In accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, the Company measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include: ● Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; ● Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and ● Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable. The carrying amounts of the Companys financial assets and liabilities, including cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The fair value of notes payable and convertible notes approximates their fair values since the current interest rates and terms on these obligations are the same as prevailing market rates. Share-based Compensation The Companys 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which has been approved by its board of directors, permits the grant of share options and shares to its employees, consultants and non-employee members of the board of directors for up to 1,345,074 shares of common stock, of which approximately 500,000 remain available to be granted. The Company records share-based compensation in accordance with the provisions of the Share-based Compensation Topic of the FASB Codification. The guidance requires the use of option-pricing models that require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the options expected life and the price volatility of the underlying stock. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model, and the resulting charge is expensed using the straight-line attribution method over the vesting period. The Company has elected to use the calculated value method to account for the options it issued in 2017 (prior to commencement on June 28, 2017 of public trading in the Companys common stock) and in 2016. A nonpublic entity that is unable to estimate the expected volatility of the price of its underlying share may measure awards based on a calculated value, which substitutes the volatility of appropriate public companies (representative of the companys size and industry) as a bench mark for the volatility of the entitys own share price. Prior to June 28, 2017, there was no active market for the Companys common shares. The Company has used the historical closing values of these companies to estimate volatility, which was calculated to be 90%. Stock compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of share-based awards that were expected to vest during the period adjusted for estimated forfeitures. The estimated fair value of grants of stock options and warrants to non-employees of the Company is charged to expense, if applicable, in the financial statements. These options vest in the same manner as the employee options granted under the stock incentive plan as described above. Beneficial Conversion Feature If the conversion feature of conventional convertible debt provides for a rate of conversion that is below market value, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature (BCF). A BCF is recorded by the Company as a debt discount pursuant to ASC Topic 470-20 Debt with Conversion and Other Options. In those circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded net of the discount related to the BCF and the Company amortizes the discount to interest expense over the life of the debt using the effective interest method. Debt Discount The Company determines if the convertible debenture should be accounted for as liability or equity under ASC 480, Liabilities Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. ASC 480 applies to certain contracts involving a companys own equity, and requires that issuers classify the following freestanding financial instruments as liabilities. Mandatorily redeemable financial instruments, obligations that require or may require repurchase of the issuers equity shares by transferring assets (e.g., written put options and forward purchase contracts), and certain obligations where at inception the monetary value of the obligation is based solely or predominantly on: ● A fixed monetary amount known at inception, for example, a payable settleable with a variable number of the issuers equity shares with an issuance date fair value equal to a fixed dollar amount;
● Variations in something other than the fair value of the issuers equity shares, for example, a financial instrument indexed to the S&P 500 and settleable with a variable number of the issuers equity shares; or ● Variations inversely related to changes in the fair value of the issuers equity shares, for example, a written put that could be net share settled.
Going Concern The Companys financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has a limited operating history and had a cumulative net loss from inception to June 30, 2017 of $14,691,886. The Company had working capital of $7,510,198 as of June 30, 2017. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenue sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2017 have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Companys cash resources could be insufficient to meet its anticipated needs during the next twelve months. The Company will require additional financing to fund its future planned operations, including research and development and commercialization of its products. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it establishes a revenue stream and becomes profitable. Managements plans to continue as a going concern include raising additional capital through sales of equity securities and borrowing. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. If the Company is not able to obtain the necessary additional financing on a timely basis, the Company will be forced to delay or scale down some or all of its development activities or perhaps even cease the operation of its business. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. There is substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive revenue recognition standard that will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. Under ASU 2014-09, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services and is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The FASB has recently issued ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10, ASU 2016-11, ASU 2016-12, and ASU 2016-20, all of which clarify certain implementation guidance within ASU 2014-09. ASU 2014-09 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted only in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods therein. The standard can be adopted either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective method), or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application (the cumulative catch-up transition method). The Company is currently in the process of analyzing the information necessary to determine the impact of adopting this new guidance on its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The Company plans to adopt the provisions of this statement in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to record a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. ASU 2016-02 is effective for all interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the expected impact that the standard could have on its financial statements and related disclosures. Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Companys present or future financial statements. |
