2014 vs. 2013
Overall sales for the year ending February 28, 2014, increased 12.0% to $8,698,852 from $7,763,953 for the same period last year. Our sales improved in both domestic and international markets. The increase in unit volume was partially offset by the effect of lower prices that were the result of an accelerating shift from direct sales to a distsributor-driven model to meet customer preferences and expand potential markets, and from aggressive pricing to promote sales growth. Sales in the fourth quarter of the current year increased $636,800, or 31.9%, over the same quarter in 2013. We continue to focus our sales and marketing efforts mainly on our two core product lines, the FREEDOM60® Syringe Infusion System and the RES-Q-VAC® Portable Medical Suction System.
Our infusion products, which include the FREEDOM60® Syringe Infusion System and RMS HIgH-Flo™ Subcutaneous Safety Needle Sets, continue to lead our sales increases with an overall improvement of 14.9%, going from gross sales of $6,918,000 in 2013 to gross sales of $7,952,000 for the current year. The increase is due to additional sales for use with immune globulin and antibiotics, and increased revenues from our line of RMS HIgH-Flo™ Subcutaneous Needle Sets. Sales of our needle sets increased substantially year-over-year and we continue to actively pursue new customer contracts for them. We have concentrated the majority of our efforts in the FREEDOM60® line, specifically towards subcutaneous immune globulin (SCIG) applications in both domestic and foreign markets.
We anticipate these sales to continue to increase as the SCIG market continues to develop and as we work on new enhancements to the FREEDOM60® that we believe will expand this market even further. In addition, we expect many of the SCIG providers and others will see benefit in using the FREEDOM60® system for additional uses, such as antibiotics, chemotherapeutics, and pain medications.
Our net income for the year ending February 28, 2014, was $703,429 as compared with net income of $725,763 for the previous year, a decline of 3.1%. This decrease is due, in part, to increased cost of goods, the amortization of costs associated with the restricted stock grant program for key employees authorized by the Board of Directors in July 2012, increased selling, general & administrative expenses, and increased R&D investment. We expanded our sales presence in Europe with the recruitment of a Director of European Sales, based in Sweden. We believe that these efforts are necessary to maintain our customer base and increase our sales domestically and internationally for both the FREEDOM60® Syringe Infusion System and HIgH-Flo™ Subcutaneous Safety Needle Sets.
RES-Q-VAC® Portable Medical Suction sales decreased by 5.1% to $714,000 from $753,000. RES-Q-VAC non-US sales increased 9%, although this was insufficient to compensate for the decline in domestic demand.
RES-Q-VAC® is sold domestically and internationally by emergency medical device distributors. These distributors generally sell to the end user and advertise these products in relevant publications and in their catalogs. We market the hospital RES-Q-VAC® Portable Medical Suction system through regional distributors specializing in the hospital respiratory care market.
Cost of goods sold increased 20.2%, from $2,819,113 for year ended February 28, 2013, to $3,388,774 for the current year primarily because of increased sales. Gross profit margin for the year ended February 28, 2014, decreased 2.7% to 61.0%, as compared with 63.7% for the previous year, due in part to a change in product mix. Raw materials costs have been increasing as have production expenses.
The Cost of Goods Sold also reflects the effects of the 2.3% Medical Device Excise Tax imposed on medical products manufacturers and importers by the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, effective January 1, 2013. To maintain our aggressive pricing, we have absorbed the tax. The Medical Device Excise Tax, which was in effect for only two months of Fiscal 2013, represented one-fifth of the increase in COGS for Fiscal 2014.
Selling, General & Administrative Expenses (SG&A) increased by $307,409 year over year from $3,543,889 to $3,851,298, an increase of 8.7%. This increase is due, in part, the amortization of costs associated with the restricted stock grant program for key employees authorized by the Board of Directors in July 2012, expansion of sales and marketing staffs, legal costs associated with the engagement of legal firms, including Dechert LLP, to review and strengthen our patent positions and represent us in litigation, and increased marketing and promotional efforts. We expanded our sales presence in Europe with the recruitment of a Director of European Sales, based in Sweden. We believe that these efforts are necessary to maintain our customer base and increase our sales domestically and internationally for both the FREEDOM60® Syringe Infusion System and RMS HIgH-Flo™ Subcutaneous Safety Needle Sets.
Research and development expenses increased 47.8% from $147,576 to $218,150 primarily due to expenses, including outside services, incurred on development associated with the RMS HIgH-Flo™ Subcutaneous Safety Needle Sets and accessories, research on manufacturing improvements, and investigation and development of new product. There can be no assurance that our R&D will result in commercially successful products, but we believe that such efforts will enable us to maintain our competitive position, increase revenue from our existing customer base and expand our market reach.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased by 22.0% to $232,959 during the year ended February 28, 2014, as compared with $190,971 for the previous year 2013 as a result of continued investment in capital assets. Interest expense decreased from $28,280 to $4,547 due to retirement of long-term debt.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our net operating profit for the year ended February 28, 2014, was $1,007,671 as compared with $1,062,404 for the previous year. For the year ended February 28, 2014, Net Cash provided from Operations was $954,388 as compared with $784,790 for the prior year. This increase of $169,598 compared to the prior year was due to a decrease in inventory, an increase in depreciation and amortization, an increase in accounts payable and various accrued expenses/taxes and an increase in amortization of deferred compensation cost related to the restricted stock grant program for key personnel. These were partially offset by increases in accounts receivable.
Accounts Receivable, net of reserves, increased at February 28, 2014, to $1,744,813 as compared with $1,114,847 for the previous year because of our increased sales. Sales in the fourth quarter of the current year increased $636,800, or 31.9%, over the same quarter in 2013. Domestic sales are made primarily on net 30-day payment terms. A variety of terms continue to be employed for export sales including cash prepayments and net 45 days to allow for increased delays due to transportation and communications. Prepaid expenses increased to $245,767 from $180,651.
Expenditures for capital property and equipment in 2014 were $188,686 as compared to $563,567 in the previous year, a decrease of 66.5%. Capital investment in the previous year included non-recurring expenditures for an ERP system and a residence adjacent to our facility for use as additional office and R&D space.
In May 2013, we fully repaid a note payable to a related party as this was felt to be a more productive use of funds in the current low-interest rate environment.
We currently lease a masonry and steel frame building erected on 3.27 acres of land located at 24 Carpenter Road, Chester, New York 10918. This facility is used as our headquarters and for manufacturing operations. We are in year 15 of a 20-year lease and are responsible for all repairs, maintenance, and upkeep of the space occupied. The terms of the lease call for a monthly lease payment of $11,042 per month. We also contribute payments of 65% of the building’s annual property taxes, amounting to $47,023 for the year ended February 28, 2014.
We also lease warehouse space in a nearby industrial park.
RMS HIgH-Flo™ Subcutaneous Safety Needle Sets have approval for Europe, Canada and the United States. We believe that the RMS administration sets represent an improvement in performance and safety over competitive devices on the market. We believe we have sufficient resources to continue marketing the needle sets domestically and overseas.
We believe the FREEDOM60® continues to find a solid following in the subcutaneous immune globulin market and this market is expected to continue to increase both domestically and internationally. We continued to experience an increase in sales during the year ending February 28, 2014. We expect to meet or exceed the company’s liquidity needs for the next twelve months from current operations and available capital.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FEBRUARY 28, 2014 AND FEBRUARY 28, 2013
| |
NOTE 1 | NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
NATURE OF OPERATIONS
REPRO-MED SYSTEMS, INC. (the “Company”) designs, manufactures and markets proprietary medical devices primarily for the ambulatory infusion market and emergency medical applications. The FDA regulates these products. The Company is in one line of business.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Occasionally, the Company has cash held in excess of $250,000 at a single depository, which exceeds the FDIC insurance limits and is, therefore, uninsured.
At February 28, 2014, cash equivalents consisted of money market funds aggregated to $1,655,554.
CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT
The certificates of deposit are recorded at cost plus accrued interest. The certificates of deposit earn interest at a rate of 0.4% to 0.55% and mature in September 2014 and February 2015.
INVENTORY
Inventories of raw materials are stated at the lower of standard cost, which approximates average cost, or market value including allocable overhead. Work-in-process and finished goods are stated at the lower of standard cost or market value and include direct labor and allocable overhead.
PATENTS
Costs incurred in obtaining patents have been capitalized and are being amortized over seventeen years.
INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes are provided using the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences.
The Company believes that it has no uncertain tax positions requiring disclosure or adjustment. Generally, tax years starting with 2010 are subject to examination by income tax authorities.
PROPERTY, EQUIPMENT, AND DEPRECIATION
Property and equipment is stated at cost and is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company accounts for stock issued for services using the fair value method. The measurement date of shares issued for service is the date when the counterparty’s performance is complete.
- 19 -
NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE
Basic earnings per share are computed on the weighted average of common shares outstanding during each year. Diluted earnings per share include only an increase in the weighted average shares by the common shares issuable upon exercise of employee and director stock options (Note 7).

USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Important estimates include but are not limited to, asset lives, valuation allowances, inventory, and accruals.
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS EVALUATION
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through May 29, 2014, the date on which the financial statements were issued. There were no material subsequent events that required recognition or additional disclosure in these financial statements.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Sales of manufactured products are recorded when shipment occurs. The Company’s revenue stream is derived from the sale of an assembled product. Other service revenues are recorded as the service is performed. Shipping and handling costs generally are billed to customers and are included in sales. The Company does not accept return of goods shipped unless it is a Company error. The only credits provided to customers are for defective merchandise.
EMERGING ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Management does not believe that any of the standards adopted by the Financial Accounting Standards Board but are not yet effective will have a material effect on the Company’s financial reporting.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, trade receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.
ACCOUNTING FOR LONG-LIVED ASSETS
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment at least annually or whenever the circumstances and situations change such that there is an indication that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. As of February 28, 2014, the Company does not believe that any of its assets are impaired.

For the year ended February 28, 2014, approximately, 39.9% of the Company’s gross product revenue were derived from one major customer. At February 28, 2014, accounts receivable due from this customer was $690,102.
For the year ended February 28, 2013, approximately, 27.4% and 12.2% of the Company’s gross revenue were derived from two major customers. At February 28, 2013, accounts receivable due from these customers were $366,890 and $82,368, respectively.
The largest customer in both years is a medical products and supplies distributor. Although a number of larger FREEDOM60® users have elected to consolidate their purchases through one or more distributors in recent years, we continue to maintain a strong direct relationship with them. We do not believe that their continued purchases of FREEDOM60® pumps, tubing, needle sets and related supplies is contingent upon the distributor.
The Company commenced a declaratory judgment action in 2013 to establish the invalidity and non-infringement of claims of a patent of a competitor that alleged that our needle sets would infringe. The defendant answered the complaint and asserted various counterclaims that the Company believes are without merit. The Company subsequently added claims against the defendant to show that the defendant had engaged in various unfair business practices. The litigation is in early stage discovery.

ITEM 9A CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer or CEO, and Chief Financial Officer or CFO, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of February 28, 2014. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our CEO and CFO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and implemented in conjunction with management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any internal control, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of controls. Accordingly, even effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control may vary over time.
- 23 -
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of February 28, 2014. This assessment was based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework,” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organization of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this assessment, management determined that, as of February 28, 2014, the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Act that permits the Company to provide only management’s report in the annual report.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2014, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
