ITEM 1. BUSINESS

 

Overview

 

ScripsAmerica, Inc. (www.ScripsAmerica.com) is a Delaware corporation that was formed in May 2008. Currently, ScripsAmerica’s primary focus is on the (1) development, branding and distribution of rapidly disintegrating drug formulations for Over the Counter (OTC) drugs, vitamins and supplements, (2) supporting and financing efficient pharmaceutical supply chain management services to the Independent Pharmacy market and (3) management of specialty pharmacy businesses. We developed a branded rapidly dissolving tablet OTC product called “RapiMed®” (www.RapiMeds.com), which is a children’s pain reliever and fever reducer recently launched in China through our joint venture entity Global Pharma Hub in February 2014. We have also entered into agreements with third parties pursuant to which we receive fees based on a formula tied to the gross profit on sales of pharmaceutical products to independent pharmacies by such third parties. Lastly, on February 20, 2014 we entered into an agreement with a New Jersey specialty pharmacy that specializes in topical creams, pursuant to which we manage their business operations in exchange for a percentage of the pharmacy’s operating profit, as defined in the agreement.

 

Recent Developments

 

On February 3, 2014, we entered into a joint venture with Global Pharma Hub, an international pharmaceutical marketing and distribution company, to license, market and distribute our RapiMed® children’s acetaminophen (a pain reliever and fever reducer). Under this agreement, Global Pharma Hub has an exclusive license to market and distribute RapiMed® children’s acetaminophen worldwide with the exception of the United States. Additionally, Global Pharma Hub, which has the right to sublicense RapiMed® children’s acetaminophen, entered into a sublicense agreement to NYJJ, a Hong Kong-based company, to generate initial and ongoing orders for our RapiMed® children’s acetaminophen, subject to and upon the registration approval of RapiMed® children’s acetaminophen by the Hong Kong government. On February 5, 2014, we received such registration approval for our RapiMed® children’s acetaminophen. With the registration process complete, we are now free to distribute RapiMed® children’s acetaminophen throughout Hong Kong. Because RapiMed® children’s acetaminophen is an over-the-counter (OTC) medication, it does not require FDA approval in order to be sold in Hong Kong due to the fact that our manufacturer is CGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practices) certified. On March 17, 2014, we received a $200,000 purchase order for RapiMed® children’s acetaminophen from Global Pharma Hub for the Hong Kong market.

 

Our joint venture partner, Global Pharma Hub, entered into a sublicense agreement with Jetsaw Pharmaceutical, Inc. in Canada, giving Jetsaw exclusive sublicensing right to market and distribute RapiMed® Children's acetaminophen in Canada for a term of three years. 

 

On February 20, 2014, we entered into a business management agreement with Main Avenue Pharmacy, a New Jersey specialty pharmacy. The agreement provides that we will manage all business operations of the pharmacy, which specializes in topical creams, in exchange for a percentage of the pharmacy’s total revenue. These creams are experiencing growing demand because they provide an effective alternative to pills that can be more easily ingested in higher doses than originally prescribed. From February 14, 2014 through March 31, 2014, Main Avenue Pharmacy had sales revenue of approximately $642,000, and under our management agreement with them, we earned fees of approximately $125,000. The calculation of our management fee under this agreement is described on page 13 of this Annual Report.

On March 24, 2014, we announced that our equity venture, Wholesale Rx, received and processed for itself $313,904 in orders during the month of February 2014. Since we formed this equity joint venture six months ago, our monthly revenue has increased by 398%. WholesaleRx has experienced 17% growth from January 2014. Additionally, February 2014 marked the third consecutive month that WholesaleRx has increased its revenues from the prior month. For the period of January 1, 2014 to March 31, 2014, WholesaleRx has generated for itself $792,627 in revenue .   As described in more detail on page 7 of this Annual Report, we are entitled to a monthly fee of 20% of WholesaleRx’s gross profit for the prior month.

 

Evolving Business Model

 

Since our inception, ScripsAmerica’s business model has evolved significantly. Initially, we primarily provided pharmaceutical distribution services  to a wide range of end users across the health care industry through major pharmaceutical distributors in North America, such as McKesson Corporation. These end users included retail, hospitals, long-term care facilities and government and home care agencies. The majority of our revenue from this model came from orders facilitated by McKesson,  the largest pharmaceutical distributor in North America, and a few other clients.

 

However, we had no exclusive contract with McKesson and our other pharmaceutical distributors to utilize our services and our margins began to shrink. As a result, in 2013 we moved away from providing these pharmaceutical distribution services as our main source of income, and we focused on generating revenue through (1) the marketing, sale and distribution of our RapiMed® products, (2) our independent pharmacy distribution model and (3) our entry into the specialty pharmacy market.

 

On September 6, 2013, the Company and Marlex Pharmaceuticals, Inc., its former Contract Packager, entered into an agreement pursuant to which the Company and its former Contract Packager resolved various disagreements that had arisen between the parties on various projects covered by written agreements between the Company and its former Contract Packager, namely (i) the Contract Packager’s agreement with the U.S. government, (ii) the parties agreement with respect to the production and packaging of the Company’s RapiMed® products and (iii) shares of the Company’s stock issued to the principals of the Contract Packager for consulting services. The Company’s agreement with Marlex also contained mutual releases.

 

This September 6 th agreement provided that the Company will provide Marlex with financing through a related party, Development 72 LLC, for the continuance of Marlex’s pharmaceutical distribution contract with the U.S. government and for the Contract Packager to make 15 equal monthly payments of $27,210 to the Company with respect to amounts its owed the Company for prior shipments from McKesson and under the U.S. government contract (which stopped in May 2013 due to a dispute but have resumed in September 2013) for a total of $408,154. For net revenue generated after the September 6th agreement, the Company’s percentage of the profits under the U.S. government contract had been revised in terms of the rate and the number of bottles of product sold to the U.S. government for which the Company would receive payments. As a result of which, the Company will receive monthly payments from Marlex equal to the actual amount of interest incurred by the Company from the financing arranged through Development 72, royalty payments on the next 30,300 bottles sold by Marlex under the U.S. government agreement and a monthly interest payment of $1,480 with each such royalty payments.

 

To protect our position with respect to the RapiMed® product, the September 6 th agreement also terminated the Product Development, Manufacturing and Supply Agreement with the Contract Packager, which agreement was in regard to the Company’s RapiMed® products. All development costs through the date of the cancellation of the Product Development Agreement have previously been expensed and paid by the Company, which expects to enter into a manufacturing and supply contract directly with a manufacturer that owns a quick melt technology used for the RapiMed® products to be sold outside of the United States. We expect to enter into this agreement with the new manufacturer during the second quarter of 2014.

 

Pursuant to the September 6 th agreement, the principals of the Contract Packager returned 500,000 shares of common stock of the Company which they had received under consulting agreements. Another 400,000 shares issued to them under consulting agreements is being held as security for the payments due to the Company under the September 6 th agreement. Each month an equal portion of the 400,000 shares would be released as free trading shares to the principals of the Contract Packager. In September 2013, the Company retired the 500,000 shares and reversed the consulting expense previously incurred through additional paid in capital.

Market Opportunity

 

Independent Pharmacy Distribution

 

According to the National Community Pharmacist Association (“NCPA”), as of 2011, there were 23,106 independent pharmacies in the United States, which population has changed very little in recent years, according to a 2013 Hamacher Resource Group, Inc. (“HRG”) report entitled Independent Pharmacy Shoppers . This number of independent pharmacies includes independent, pharmacist-owned regional chain operations, franchise stores, specialty pharmacies and long-term care pharmacies. The NCPA notes that over 25% of independent pharmacy owners have ownership in two or more locations and that 38% of all retail pharmacies are independent, and represent $80.7 billion in annual sales of prescription medicines. According to a Chicago Tribune article on independent pharmacies published on September 2, 2013, independent pharmacies hold approximately 30% of the overall drug store market. The NCPA reports that the average independent pharmacy dispenses 201 prescriptions per day and that annual prescription sales account for approximately 91% of annual revenues among independent pharmacies. The HRG 2013 reports indicates that with the rapidly aging population, influx of new prescription patients as a result of the Affordable Care Act, increased use of generic drugs and a dramatic rise in chronic conditions, independent pharmacies could find themselves ideally positioned to become a consumer’s first choice for care. The NCPA reports that independent pharmacies provide a range of patient services, including delivery, patient charge accounts, compounding, durable medical goods and immunizations; and 77% of drugs dispensed by independent pharmacies are generics. A March 15, 2014 S&P Capital IQ report states that U.S. drug sales are expected to rise modestly in 2014, lifted in part by volume gains in specialty and generic drug sales.

 

With approximately half of the states expanding Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act, pharmacies, small and large, can expect to see an increase in prescription customers as a result of the expanded Medicaid coverage (which includes a prescription benefit).

 

We are ideally suited to compete in the current environment by providing a low cost system of broad-based marketing, sales, and distribution capabilities for generics, branded pharmaceuticals, over the counter medicines, vitamins, and nutraceuticals. We use our broad connections to wholesale providers of prescription and generic medicines to source and provide our customers the best prices for their independent pharmacy customers.

 

During 2013, we derived approximately $69,902, or approximately 12.5% of our revenue, from commissions on gross margins of prescription and non-prescription medicines we sourced for our one customer, WholesaleRx. In 2014, we consolidated P.I.M.D. as a variable interest entity which distributes prescription and non-prescription pharmaceuticals to independent pharmacies.

 

Our independent pharmacy distribution business competes against large and medium sized pharmaceutical distributors such as McKesson, AmerisourceBergen Corporation, Anda Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Cardinal Health, Harvard Drug Group, Capital Wholesale Drug Company, Henry Schein, Inc. and Matrix Distributors, Inc., Medsource Corporation, Sunrise Wholesalers, Inc. and Top Rx. All of these competitors have more financial resources than we do and are better positioned to offer lower prices for pharmaceutical products with better payment terms.

 

We believe that independent pharmacies will continue to represent a significant market opportunity given the expansion of prescription patients under the Affordable Care Act and the niche markets drawn to the patient services that large chain drug stores do not typically provide (such as compounding, delivery and patient charge accounts). We believe that our ability to source low cost prescription and non-prescription medicines will allow our clients to offer competitive wholesale prices for pharmaceutical products to independent pharmacies. We will use our effective pharmaceutical sourcing abilities to expand the number of wholesale clients we have.

Rapid Oral Disintegrating Drug Formulations

 

During 2012 and 2013, many large pharmaceutical companies will lose patent protection of some of their best-selling products. One of the ways that these large pharmaceutical companies protect and expand the market for the brand name drugs is through new methods of delivery – a new dosage form. According to IMS Health Incorporated, a health care information and consulting company, drugs representing approximately $89.5 billion in sales during 2010 will be losing patent protection during the five year period ending December 31, 2014. The pharmaceutical industry’s collective drug pipeline is simultaneously in decline. One of the approaches that drug companies may consider for offsetting loss of patent protection and weak drug pipeline is updating old drugs with reformulations, which secures revenues for extended time periods and have a higher likelihood of success as compared to new drug development. Reformulation refers to the process of altering a drug’s characteristics just enough to qualify for a new patent, while keeping the same indication to use previous clinical testing results for the purpose of FDA approval.

 

Drug delivery technology can be an effective defensive strategy when a company adds a relevant therapeutic benefit to a marketed drug, such as improved efficacy or dosing frequency, or new therapeutic indications or target user groups. Additional benefits include boosting a drug’s value, reviving its marketplace position, or rejuvenating products that are in their mature life-cycle stage. Drug delivery technology can also enable or accelerate market entry by overcoming issues such as insolubility, formulation difficulties or high dosing frequency.

 

Rapid melt technology is an example of a reformulation technique aimed at advanced drug delivery and product differentiation.   The FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) Data Standards Manual defines orally disintegrating tablets (ODTs) as “a solid dosage form containing medical substances which disintegrates rapidly, usually within a matter of seconds, when placed upon the tongue.” The FDA recommends that, in addition to the original definition, ODTs be considered solid oral preparations that disintegrate rapidly in the oral cavity, with an in-vitro disintegration time of approximately 30 seconds or less, without the need for chewing or liquids. Rapid melt tablets are generally characterized by a hydrophilic matrix, which allows prompt disintegration of tablets as they come into contact with saliva. Disintegration releases the active drug moiety trapped in the matrix, permitting the patient to swallow the product in the form of a liquid, or a suspension in the case of non-soluble components. The rapid disintegration tablet excipient offers extremely fast dissolution from tablets with good hardness made with standard techniques. The combined US, EU and Japanese ODT market has doubled in size over the past four years to surpass $6.4 billion in 2009, according to Technology Catalysts International’s report on Orally Disintegrating Tablet and Film Technologies (sixth edition), which is available for purchase from TCI.

 

Clinically, rapid melts improve the pharmacoeconomics of drugs by providing faster onset of action as the dosage form is disintegrated prior to reaching the stomach. This is particularly applicable for acute diseases and to manage breakthrough symptoms. Other potential benefits include superior bioavailability, improved therapy through sustained release and high active dose capabilities, safety, efficacy, convenience, and compliance. With medications for chronic diseases that display time-dependent symptoms, such as ulcers or asthma, drug delivery systems can control the formulation release according to the timing of symptoms. For instance, they could enable a drug to release when asthma attacks occur, generally in the middle of the night. This capability can provide valuable and clinically proven therapeutic benefits, as well as a means for marketers to differentiate their product. Sustained release action also reduces dosing frequency, which in turn can serve to decrease the frequency of caregiver interactions.   Fewer visits from doctors and nurses save administration costs and time and increase convenience for both patients and caregivers.

 

Orally disintegrating and fast-dissolving dosage forms have continued to expand as they address a combination of issues traditionally associated with pharmaceuticals administered as oral solid dosages.   These include dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) common to pediatric and geriatric patients, lack of patient compliance and lack of consumer convenience. In addition, the market for rapidly dissolving formulations maintains its strength as an innovative concept for either brand or generic companies with access to dissolving technology.

As a result, the combined US, EU and Japanese ODT market has doubled in size between 2005 to 2009, surpassing $6.4 billion in 2009, according to Technology Catalysts International’s report on Orally Disintegrating Tablet and Film Technologies (sixth edition), which report is available for purchase from TCI.   Increased generic competition has further expanded the ODT market volume. The number of commercial over-the-counter and prescription ODT products has ballooned to over 450, which is attributable to the rapid genericization of multiple products by a large number of generics companies. Aprecia Pharmaceutical Company reports on its web site that the global ODT market reached revenues of $8.4 billion in 2011 and this segment grew by $1.4 billion (+20%) from 2010 and by $2 billion from 2009.

 

The ODT market is one of the fastest growing sectors of the drug delivery market, with industry experts projecting a 12-15% annual growth rate for the next several years. Based on upward global growth trends of the past decade, the ODT market could produce revenues of $13 billion by 2015, according to an article appearing on Pharmatech.com entitled “ODT Market to Exceed $13 Billion by 2015” by Stephanie Sutton (available at http://pharmtech.findpharma.com/pharmtech/Formulation/ODT-Market-to-Exceed-13-Billion-by- 2015/ArticleStandard/Article/detail/694820 ).   Growth is fueled by patient demand, with recent market studies indicating that more than half of the patients prefer ODTs to other dosage forms, according to Kaushik Deepak’s article “ Orally disintegrating tablets: An overview of melt-in-mouth technologies and techniques”, which appeared in the July 2004 edition of Tablets and Capsules magazine (pp. 30 – 35), and most consumers would ask their doctors for ODTs (70%), purchase ODTs (70%), or prefer ODTs to regular tablets or liquids (80%), according to Dave Brown’s article “Orally Disintegrating Tablets: Taste Over Speed” which appeared in September 2003 edition of Drug Delivery Technology magazine (and can be found at http://www.drugdeliverytech.com/ME2/dirmod.asp?sid=&nm=&type=Publishing&mod=Publications%3A%3AArticle&mid=8F3A7027421841978F18BE895F87F791&tier=4&id=AF1FFE004FD14F3C9645BBE33360F7A9).

 

The ODT market for both the prescription ODT and over the counter ODT is highly fragmented, with many companies putting out ODT products (either OTC, prescription or both) into the market place. Aprecia reports that more than 900 branded and generic products have now been commercialized in ODT formulations throughout the United States, European Union and Japan.

 

Patient demand is driven by the fact that as many as 40% of Americans experience difficulty swallowing traditional tablets (especially among pediatric and geriatric patients), even though most have no problems swallowing food or liquid.   Results from a 2003 nationwide survey of 679 adults on pill-swallowing difficulties, conducted by Harris Interactive, indicated that of those who experienced difficulty swallowing pills, 14% had delayed taking doses of their medication, 8% had skipped a dose, and 4% had discontinued their medication, according to a January 2004 PR Newswire article entitled “40% of American Adults Report Experiencing Difficulty Swallowing Pills” (available at http://www.spraynswallow.com/links&Articles.html ).

 

Orally dissolving tablets have emerged as a patient-friendly, convenient method of administering medications.   In addition to adults, the fast dissolving tablet market will prove particularly applicable to children and the elderly and anyone else who has trouble swallowing regular pills, tablets, or capsules; for example patients whose swallowing is compromised as a clinical symptom of disease. Other groups who benefit from this dosing form include the mentally ill, developmentally disabled, and uncooperative patients. ODTs can also be used in the field, for example in combat zones or for relief efforts following natural disasters, where clean sources of water may be unavailable and rapid onset of action is desirable.

 

Our Target Niche

 

In light of the fact that rapid melt technology provides pharmaceutical companies with the much-needed opportunity for product line extensions for a wide variety of drugs, we see a significant opportunity as a contract developer of orally disintegrating tablet (ODT), especially in prescription pharmaceuticals.

Our target market for RapiMed ® is 2-11 year olds and we anticipate that the formula for our orally disintegrating tablets will be more effective than existing products due to its ability to melt faster, taste better and provide more accurate dosing. Unlike other products available, ScripsAmerica’s is much smaller and dissolves in the child’s mouth in 25 seconds, therefore entering their system faster. RapiMed ® contains Acetaminophen (main ingredient in Tylenol); however the bitter taste of this active ingredient is masked by a patented technology. The cherry and wild grape flavors that our product will come in are most appealing to children. Additionally, the dosage of RapiMed ® is controlled, not like the syringe based competing products and we offer the 80 mg for 2-6 year olds, and 160 mg for the 6-11 year olds. The 80mg and 160mg dosing strengths will be particularly applicable to children to solve common overdosing or under dosing issues that 2-11 year olds tend to experience when taking pain relievers or fever reducers in doses intended for adults.

 

The RapiMed ® packaging is convenient, portable, child resistant and easy to use as well as eye-catching. The product will be labeled in both English and Spanish to serve the expanding Hispanic markets in America. The contents are aspirin free, ibuprofen free, sugar free and gluten free as well. Since the numerous Tylenol recalls in the recent past, there is a clear need for a better controlled, more efficient product to fill the void. We believe our RapiMed is that product.

 

ScripsAmerica presented RapiMed® to retail buyers in February of 2013 at the ECRM Cough and Cold show in Florida and we received very positive feedback. We have engaged Davison Product Group, LLC to roll out the product to retailers nationwide once we secure adequate funding. Depending on the retailer, the product will be promoted through in-store temporary price reductions, coupons, store-circulars, buy-two-and save packs, as a clip-strip program, radio and print advertising. As noted below, i n March 2014, we began selling our RapiMed® pediatric acetaminophen in the People’s Republic of China through our joint venture entity, Global Pharma Hub, Inc.

 

In January 2014, we entered into a joint venture entity, Global Pharma Hub, Inc., with Forbes Investments, Ltd. and Sterling, LLC and their respective assigns. The purpose of this joint venture is to license, market and distribute U.S. manufactured over-the-counter medications in foreign markets. We own 37% of Global Pharma Hub. In January 2014, we entered into a Worldwide Licensing Agreement with Global Pharma Hub under which we granted to Global Pharma an exclusive worldwide license, excluding the United States of America, to market, distribute and sell our RapiMed® children’s pain reliever and fever reducer. The license is for the use of our registered trademarks and includes online marketing, distribution and sales so long as such online outlets do not sell in the United States. We do not own the formula for the RapiMed® products sold outside of the United States, which is owned by the manufacturer we will be using to supply RapiMed® products for Global Pharma Hub. In March 2014, we secured a $200,000 order from Global Pharma Hub for our RapiMed® pediatric acetaminophen for the Hong Kong market.

 

Our acetaminophen orally disintegrating rapid dissolve tablets will compete with other children’s analgesic products, such as Johnson & Johnson’s Children’s Tylenol Suspension Liquid and Children’s Tylenol Meltaways, Novartis’ Triaminic Fever Reducer Pain Reliever, and Perrigo’s Junior Strength Non-Aspirin Suspension Liquids & Drugs. According to Euromonitor International’s research, J&J’s Children’s Tylenol sales represented 23% of global and 76% of U.S. retail value sales in child-specific acetaminophen. Global sales were valued at $695 million in 2009. While the strength of J&J’s Tylenol brand seemed virtually bulletproof in the U.S. until recently, a multitude of product recalls over the past three years have weakened its reputation and opened a window for competitors to capture market share, especially in the children’s analgesics market where pediatricians’ support of the Tylenol brand has seen some erosion.

 

When analyzing the advantage of the ODTs dosage form over liquids, it is imperative to consider that safely administering liquids such as Children’s Tylenol suspension to children requires precise dosage measurement in increments of half a teaspoon, depending on the child’s weight or age. Inadvertent overdosing – whether by an adult’s error or perhaps a child’s self-administration - may lead to severe liver damage and requires immediate medical attention even in the absence of signs or symptoms. Conversely, ODTs such as our acetaminophen orally disintegrating rapid dissolve tablets represent a precise, standardized dose in the form of discrete, easy-to-count, individually blister-packaged tablets, thereby reducing the probability of human error while the drug is being administered. Finally, the taste of ODTs can easily be tailored to appeal to children, using a variety of flavored coatings.

Specialty Pharmacies

 

Specialty pharmacies, prepare medications for humans (and animals) that are not commercially available for individual patients. A specialty pharmacy will mix or alter various drug ingredients to create a customized medication for an individual patient in response to a doctor’s prescription. These custom doses may be in the form of an alternate strength of the medication, flavoring of medication and/or preparation of the medication for patients with allergies or other sensitivities. For example, a patient may be allergic to an additive to a pill, such as a certain dye color, or the patient needs less of an inert (non-active) ingredient or needs a stronger dose than is commercially available.

 

According to a report from the research firm IBISWorld, during the past five year period ended 2012, the specialty pharmacy industry has largely grown as a result of increased awareness of compounding pharmacies and pharmaceutical applications, shortages of mass-produced drugs and growth in the number of senior citizens. During such time, the number of prescription drug shortages has increased, rising from 61 in 2005 to more than 280 in 2012. Further, a December 2012 article by the American Journal of Managed Care cites that pharmacies specializing in compounding have become more prevalent, citing the primary reason as drug shortages which have become more frequent over recent years. The American Society of Health-System Pharmacists  currently lists a shortage of 235 products on its website. Another factor for expected growth in the market for compounding pharmacies is the increasing number of Americans aged 65 and over, supporting demand for medications from the compounding industry that cannot be met by conventional medications. In the five years to 2017, IBISWorld estimates that revenue will increase. During that time, a growing number of doctors and patients will likely turn to compounding pharmacies to prepare medications with alternate doses and strengths. Rising demand will ultimately bring more operators into the industry. IBISWorld projects that the number of firms operating in this industry will increase at an average of 2.3% annually to 178 in the five years to 2017.

 

Independent Pharmacy Distribution

 

Wholesale Rx

 

As of November 1, 2013, we entered into a written agreement with WholesaleRx, Inc., which represents over 700 such independent pharmacies. WholesaleRx is DEA and State-licensed to store and distribute controlled substances (which are drugs that have the potential for abuse or dependence and are regulated under the federal Controlled Substances Act). WholesaleRx is in possession of the proper facility, the critical state licenses, DEA approval, and the network of customers to add to ScripsAmerica’s current revenue stream. We anticipate adding available state licenses from additional states, thereby expanding WholesaleRx’s reach while increasing the products available for distribution into their network. WholesaleRx orders the goods from the manufacturers and has them shipped to its warehouse facility. WholesaleRx then ships the goods to the pharmacies in the bottles as received by the manufacturer. When WholesaleRx receives orders from the independent pharmacies, they send the goods to them COD, which will eliminate any accounts receivable issues. We would provide financing and administer the process of providing financing to WholesaleRx.  

 

Prior to November 1, 2013, we had an oral agreement with WholesaleRx pursuant to which we secured third party financing to fund WholesaleRx’s purchase orders in consideration for which we received 12.5% of the WholesaleRx’s “gross profit” for the prior month (which gross profit would be (i) sales to all customers minus (ii) cost of goods sold, freight in (to WholesaleRx), credits and allowances).

Under our November 2013 written agreement with WholesaleRx, we agreed to provide purchase order financing to WholesaleRx under new terms and purchased a 20% equity stake in WholesaleRx . In consideration for providing the purchase order financing, and to cover our costs in administering such financing, WholesaleRx has agreed to pay us on or before the 15 th  calendar day of each month 20% of the gross profit (as described in the preceding paragraph) for the prior calendar month. If WholesaleRx is late in paying such 20% fee, then the amount owed to us will accrue interest at the rate of 18% per annum until paid.

 

Under this financing arrangement, when WholesaleRx needs to fund the purchase of product to fill an order, we will secure advances financing from a third party financing source (with which we have a pre-existing business relationship) and then turn around and lend the money directly to WholesaleRx. WholesaleRx must repay the advance from us within 24 calendar days (which is six days before we must repay the third party financing source). The loans we make to WholesaleRx are secured by certain assets of WholesaleRx (including any proceeds from such assets), and WholesaleRx has agreed to indemnify and hold us harmless for any claims, charges and demands resulting from or arising out of any purchase order financing with the third party financing source.

 

During 2013, we borrowed from related third parties to provide WholesaleRx’s with purchase financing. These related third parties were Development 72, LLC, which is an affiliate of one of directors, and the wife of our Chief Executive Officer. We borrowed an from Development 72 to provide WholesaleRx purchase order financing in August and September 2013, and we borrowed from the wife of our Chief Executive Officer to provide WholesaleRx purchase order financing from September to December 2013. Since January 1, 2014, we have provided purchase order financing to WholesaleRx from our cash flow from operations without borrowing any funds.

 

In addition to providing purchase order financing to WholesaleRx, we also agreed in the November 2013 written agreement to make an equity investment in WholesaleRx in the amount of $400,000 for 12,000 shares, which represents a 20% interest in WholesaleRx. We paid the subscription amount in three installments ($150,000 was paid upon execution of the agreement, $125,000 was paid in January 2014 and $125,000 was due on February 15, 2014 but we have not yet paid this amount). A proportionate number of the shares of WholesaleRx were released to us from an escrow agent upon each payment. As of April 9, 2014, we have received 8,250 shares from the escrow agent (representing a 14% interest in WholesaleRx). Under the November 2013 written agreement we also have a right of first refusal for (i) any proposed transfer of shares by the current owners of WholesaleRx and (ii) any financing (debt or equity) by WholesaleRx.

 

If either of the other two shareholders have a desire to sell some or all of their shares of WholesaleRx stock, they are required to notify us immediately of that intent of that intent and offer us that opportunity to both the shares to be sold. If the selling shareholder and we cannot agree on terms for the purchase of the shares, then the selling shareholder may try to sell his stock to a third party. However, if the either of the other two shareholders of WholesaleRx receive a bona fide offer for the purchase of some or all of their WholesaleRx from a third party, we have a right of first of first refusal to purchase such WholesaleRx stock on the terms and conditions of such bona fide offer. The selling shareholder must provide us with a written copy of the bona fide offer, and we have then fifteen calendars after the receipt of the notice to exercise our right of first refusal.

 

We also have a right of first refusal with respect to any proposed investment in WholesaleRx.

 

PIMD Sourcing and Marketing Agreement

 

On October 18, 2013, we entered into an agreement to acquire 90% of the Membership Units in P.I.M.D. International, LLC (“ PIMD”), a start-up limited liability company based in, and proposing to do business in, Florida. Florida is a most desirable state to be a base of operations and distribution due to the current needs of its diverse population. The operation will be guided by our full time pharmacist who will ensure both DEA and Florida compliance. This additional revenue stream will certainly enhance shareholder value. Although founded approximately 4 years ago, PIMD has had no sales, but has the necessary licenses for operation of a drug wholesale operation. The purchase of the Membership Units in PIMD was subject to certain conditions precedent, of which the most important was that we obtain the necessary licenses from Florida (and the DEA) for the ownership of a drug distribution company like PIMD. At that time we entered into the agreement, we believed that the licensing could be accomplished within about 12 weeks.

However, it was determined that securing the licenses was going to require a substantially longer period of time than the parties had anticipated. Consequently, in order to preserve the business opportunity, it was necessary to change the structure of the relationship. Accordingly, the original purchase agreement was cancelled and voided. The funds already advanced by us to PIMD were converted to a loan and the relationship between PIMD and us became a Sourcing and Marketing Agreement

 

Under this Sourcing and Marketing Agreement, which we entered into with PIMD in December 2013, we will assist PIMD by helping PIMD to (1) secure advantageous sources of drugs and (2) secure marketing and sales assistance in selling the drugs. For these services, we will receive a “Sourcing and Marketing Fee” which is 45% of the “Calculated Basis” to be calculated under a formula in the Sourcing and Marketing Agreement. PIMD has no material sales in fiscal 2013 and no sales as of the three months ended March 31, 2014, but should be operational by the end of June 2014. Under the terms of the revised agreement with PIMD, we have no authority or control with respect to PIMD’s business - the purchase of the drugs and the sale of the drugs. Additionally, we do not have any authority to bind PIMD for any transaction relating to the purchase, sale or transfer of pharmaceutical products.

 

In the meantime, Implex Corporation, owned by our legal counsel, Richard Fox, who is a Florida resident, has stepped in to assist with any licensing issues. We believe that if licensing is required it will be that of Implex, based in Florida and with a Florida owner. Implex borrowed $272,000 from ScripsAmerica at an interest rate of 2% and has re-loaned the funds to PIMD at an interest rate of 5%. Implex will keep the 3% differential. Our loan to Implex and Implex’s loan to PIMD are both for a 5-year period. Implex will be entering into a “Business Development and Retention Agreement” with PIMD to assist PIMD with the development of its business.

 

Rapidly Dissolving Drug Formulations

 

Rapidly dissolving drug formulation refers to an oral drug delivery formulation, which entails drugs in tablet form that can be taken without water and will dissolve in the mouth in less than 30 seconds. Rapidly dissolving drug formulations represent a convenient dosing form for patients who have difficulty swallowing – a widespread phenomenon among the elderly - or have sustained injuries to the esophagus. Other groups who benefit from this dosing form include the mentally ill, developmentally disabled, and uncooperative patients. Rapidly dissolving drug formulations can also be used in the field, where a clean source of water may be unavailable.

 

Rapidly dissolving drug formulations’ primary advantages over other oral dosage forms include patient friendliness, sustained release and high active dose capabilities, low manufacturing cost, manufacture using conventional equipment and blister packaging, and low moisture sensitivity. Rapidly dissolving drug formulations for children can be customized to solve common overdosing or under dosing issues that 2-11-year-olds frequently experience when taking pain relievers or fever reducers in doses intended for adults.

 

Oral drug delivery remains the preferred dosing method among patients and physicians, with more than 80% of all drugs administered in this manner, according to ONdrugDelivery Ltd.’s 2007 white paper entitled “Oral Drug Delivery: When You Find the Holy Grail” (available at http://www.ondrugdelivery.com/publications/Oral_Drug_Delivery_07.pdf ). Rapidly dissolving drug technology provides pharmaceutical companies with the opportunity for product line extensions for a wide variety of drugs, and we believe there is a significant opportunity as a contract developer of rapidly dissolving drug formulation for specialty prescription pharmaceuticals. The combined US, EU and Japanese ODT market has doubled in size over the past four years to surpass $6.4 billion in 2009, according to Technology Catalysts International’s report on Orally Disintegrating Tablet and Film Technologies (sixth edition), which is available for purchase from TCI.

 

On February 5, 2014, we received registration approval for our RapiMed® children’s acetaminophen in Hong Kong. With the registration process complete, we are now free to distribute RapiMed® children’s acetaminophen throughout Hong Kong. On March 17, 2014, we received a $200,000 purchase order for RapiMed® children’s acetaminophen from Global Pharma Hub, our joint venture entity, for the Hong Kong market.

 

Although not planned for the next 12 months, we do plan to develop and launch additional products as quickly as cash flows allow. Vitamins and OTC products are among the product categories currently under consideration. The rapidly dissolving drug formulation for vitamins can be developed within one to two months, as no regulatory approval is required to bring such products to market, and can be distributed through the existing network. OTC rapidly dissolving drug formulations can be launched with a five- to six-month lead time, including three months of accelerated studies and one month of process validation. We do not need to obtain FDA approval to market and sell orally disintegrating rapid dissolve tablets for vitamins and OTC products. We only need to be sure that the contract manufacturers we use for making our orally disintegrating rapid dissolve tablets for vitamins and OTC products have quality control and manufacturing procedures that conform to the FDA's good manufacturing practices (“GMP”) regulations, which must be followed at all times. In complying with standards set forth in these regulations, manufacturers must continue to expend time, monies and effort in the area of production and quality control to ensure full technical compliance.  We expect it would take us nine (9) months to purchase the raw materials, manufacture the product using a contract manufacturer, complete the packaging, ship the finished product and conduct the marketing/advertising for the product. Launch of generics as a rapidly dissolving drug formulation requires filing of an Abbreviated New Drug Application or New Drug Application under Section 505(b)(2) of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act, which covers new pharmaceutical products with innovative dosage forms or delivery routes. Generics will require at least two years of time to approval as well as a $1 million - $2 million investment in safety and efficacy studies.

Except for the 80 mg and 160 mg pediatric orally disintegrating rapid dissolve tablets, we currently do not have any other marketable rapid dissolve products. We may not successfully develop any of the potential rapid dissolve products for vitamins and OTC products, or we may require more funding than we expect to develop such potential orally disintegrating products.

 

We do not have exclusive use for this material for our rapid dissolve products. The remainder of our formulation to develop these potential rapid dissolve products, such as particle size, coating agents, flavors, binders, manufacturing lubricants, package design, manufacturing process, packaging materials and packaging process, are treated as our trade secrets. Although any competitor or potential competitor may use the same patented material to make a rapidly dissolving product, we rely on the trade secret aspect for our competitive edge in the market for rapid dissolve products. As of March 31, 2014 we are not aware of any patent that would block our use of our “trade secrets” for the development of rapid dissolve vitamins and OTC products.

 

An overview of potential rapidly dissolving drug formulation products is shown below for each of the three categories:

 

Vitamin Chemical Name Function
B1 Thiamine Mononitrate Breakdown of sugars in the diet
B2 Riboflavin Energy metabolism; metabolism of fats, ketone bodies, carbohydrates, and proteins

Global Pharma Hub Joint Venture

 

In January 2014, we formed Global Pharma Hub, Inc. with Forbes Investments, Ltd. (and its assigns) and Sterling, LLC (and its assigns) for the purpose of marketing, supplying and distributing OTC products as RapiMed® orally dissolving tablets in foreign markets. The initial market is in China, where Global Pharma Hub began marketing and distributing our RapiMed® children’s acetaminophen in China .

 

The ownership of Global Pharma Hub, Inc. is as follows: (a) we own 37%, (b) Forbes Investments, Ltd. owns 37% and (c) Sterling, LLC owns 26%. Forbes Investment, Ltd. is based in Shenzhen, China. The parties have a written understanding of this joint venture although a final, binding contract is in process of being prepared for signature.

 

Global Pharma Hub will seek out and identify companies that have market ready OTC products and then structure a licensing agreement with that company for the international distribution of such OTC Product reformulated and marketed as a RapiMed® orally dissolving tablet. The process of identifying companies with OTC products that Global Pharma Hub would be interested in distributing will involve Global Pharma Hub’s management leveraging their network of business associates they have developed over several years, and then using those connections to arrange introductions for Global Pharma Hub with the potential target companies with the targeted OTC products.

 

Global Pharma Hub will source from the US the OTC products for licensing to be formulated, marketed and sold as a RapiMed® products and then based upon market due-diligence, determines which foreign markets present the highest demand for said OTC product. Once Global Pharma Hub determines which countries present the highest demand for the RapiMed® version of the OTC product, it will structure a license agreement with the OTC product company for the exclusive licensing, marketing and distribution rights for a particular country or countries. Global Pharma Hub seeks to have exclusive foreign territory rights for the RapiMed® version of a particular OTC product to prevent third party competition from other potential licensees of the same OTC product.

 

Global Pharma Hub will then distribute the licensed OTC products through arranging agreements with importers in the foreign distribution markets and arranging sub-licensing distribution agreements with distribution partners in the foreign distribution markets. The process of identifying the importers and distributers primarily involves leveraging the business network of Global Pharma’s officers and directors.

 

The importer’s function is to assist in arranging the shipping logistics for the RapiMed® version of the OTC product to reach the designated port and then appropriately delivered to the distributor. For these services the importer earns a designated fee based upon several variables such as the size of the OTC order and importer’s level of logistical involvement.

 

The distributors function is to arrange retail distribution of the OTC product. The distributor will hold either the exclusive or non-exclusive sub-licensing rights for the RapiMed® version of the OTC product in the particular foreign market. The distributors earns a percentage of every purchase order it arranges with retailers. This percentage is determined through negotiations between Global Pharma Hub and the distributor.

 

Sometimes, the importer and distributor in the foreign market may be the same party, or affiliated in some fashion.

 

Global Pharma Hub does not engage in on the ground solicitation of retail distributors in the foreign markets; those efforts are conducted by the distributors with whom it has agreements.

 

The process of delivering the RapiMed® version of the OTC product to the foreign distributor involves the distributor submitting purchase orders to Global Pharma Hub and then Global Pharma submitting purchase orders to the U.S. company licensor of the OTC product. Global Pharma earns a percentage on every order through marking up the product price it receives from the U.S. company licensor.

In January 2014, we entered into an exclusive world-wide licensing agreement with Global Pharma Hub, a related party that is a joint venture entity of which we own 37%, for the marketing and distribution of our children’s pain reliever and fever reducer OTC product called RapiMed® in all countries except the United States. The license will allow Global Pharma Hub to market and distribute the children’s acetaminophen orally dissolving tablets under our registered trademark, RapiMed®, as well as our registered trade mark “ MELTS IN YOUR CHILD'S MOUTH” .

 

In order to keep the license agreement, Global Pharma Hub must meet minimum sales quotas terms which are as follows:

 

1. $500,000 in purchase orders during first 12 months of License Agreement;
2. $1,400,000 in purchase orders during second 12 months; and
3. $2,400,000 in purchase orders during the third 12 months.

 

Global Pharma Hub signed an exclusive sub-licensing agreement for RapiMed in the territory of Hong Kong on January 28, 2014, with NYJJ Hong Kong Ltd. to generate initial and ongoing orders for the product following its registration approval by the Hong Kong government.  The minimum sales quotas terms of the exclusive Hong Kong sub-licensing agreement are as follows:

 

1. $550,000 in purchase orders during first 12 months;
2. $1,500,000 in purchase orders during the second 12 months; and
3. $2,500,000 in purchase orders during the third 12 months

 

On February 22, 2014, Global Pharma Hub signed an exclusive sub-licensing agreement with Jetsaw Pharmaceutical, Inc. the marketing and distribution of RapiMed® pediatric acetaminophen in the territory of Canada for an initial term of three years. The minimum sales quotas terms of the exclusive Hong Kong sub-licensing agreement are as follows:

 

1. $120,000 in purchase orders during first 12 months;
2. $220,000 in purchase orders during the second 12 months; and
3. $320,000 in purchase orders during the third12 months.

 

Jetsaw Pharmaceutical has over 14 years of experience in the Canadian pharmaceutical and OTC market in providing medication procurement and distribution services to hospitals, clinic chains and both independent and large pharmacy brands. As a result Jetsaw has a wide network of relationships in the Canadian pharmaceutical market. We expect that Jetsaw will be able to leverage these relationships to aggressively introduce RapiMed® pediatric acetaminophen into multiple distribution channels.

 

Supplier Agreement

 

We have finalized the terms with a manufacturer for the production of our RapiMed® pediatric acetaminophen for marketing, sale and distribution outside of the United States. We expect to sign a Manufactuing and Supply Agreement with this manufacturer in the second quarter of 2014. This agreement will be a non-exclusive arrangement. This supply agreement will be for a term of one year with automatic renewal for additional, successive one year terms unless either party terminates upon 180 days prior notice. This supply agreement may be terminated for (i) a material breach of the agreement which is not cured within 30 days after notice of the breach from the other party, (ii) a force majeure (causes beyond the reasonable control of a party such as an act of god, natural disaster or governmental act or imposition) that causes a party to be unable to perform for 90 days (consecutively or in the aggregate), (iii) insolvency or bankruptcy of a party, (iv) breach of a confidentiality provision in the supply agreement or (v) if we terminate a RapiMed® product line with 90 days prior notice to the Supplier. Each party under this supply agreement will retain ownership of their respective intellectual property (patents, trademarks, trade secrets) despite use of such intellectual property under this supply agreement. The manufacturer owns the formula that we will be using for our RapiMed® products made by them under this agreement.

 

Under this agreement, the Supplier will manufacture, package and ship the RapiMed® pediatric acetaminophen in accordance with the specifications and directors we provide to them. The Supplier will bill us within five (5) days of the shipment of product and we will pay the Supplier within 30 days of the receipt of the invoice. We pay for the shipment of the RapiMed® product to our designated carrier.

 

12
 

 

This supply agreement will have mutual indemnification provisions in the Supplier will indemnify us for any loss or expense directly or indirectly, arising out of, resulting from or in any way connected with (a) any breach by Supplier of the terms of this supply agreement; (b) if the Supplier does not manufacture, package or ship the RapiMed® goods in conformity with our written specifications provided to them, (c) if the Supplier breaches any of their warranties made to us, (d) the Supplier does not comply with any laws that apply to the Supplier’s obligations under this supply agreement, (e) any recall or return of RapiMed® products initiated by Supplier or by us if such recall was a result of the Supplier’s failure to comply with the our written specifications or the Supplier’s warranties; or (f) any claim that the manufacture, use or sale of any of the RapiMed® products infringes upon or violates any intellectual property rights of any third party (so long as such claim is not based on any intellectual property owned by us). We will indemnify the Supplier for any loss or expense arising out of, resulting from or in any way connected with our breach of the supply agreement.

 

If the use or sale of any RapiMed® product (or a component part of RapiMed®) is enjoined because an infringement claim, and so long as such claim is not based on any intellectual property owned by us, then under this agreement with the manufacturer we will have the option to require the Supplier, at no expense to us, to (a) secure the right to continue using the RapiMed® products or components or parts thereof; (b) replace the infringing items non-infringing item of equal performance and quality; or (c) modify the infringing items so that they become non-infringing.

 

Specialty Pharmacies

 

On January 29, 2014, Implex Corporation, which is owned by our legal counsel, Richard C. Fox, entered into a stock purchase agreement with the owner to acquire the specialty pharmacy Main Avenue Pharmacy, Inc., located in New Jersey, for $550,000. The purchase price will be paid in installments and the shares will be held by an escrow agent until the final payment is made. Under the purchase agreement, the final agreement is to be made on July 11, 2014 (unless extended by the parties).

 

On February 20, 2014, Implex Corporation and Main Avenue Pharmacy, Inc., the specialty pharmacy being acquired by Implex, entered into a Business Management Agreement with ScripsAmerica, effective as of February 7, 2014. Under this agreement, Implex has engaged us to manage the day to day business operations of Main Avenue Pharmacy, subject to the directives of Implex. Our day to day management responsibilities includes financial management but excludes any matters related to licensing and those responsibilities which require Federal or state licensure (“Licensing Matters”). Prior to the final closing, the Licensing Matters will be handled by Main Avenue Pharmacy’s owner and after the final closing Implex will be responsible for managing Licensing Matters. We will also provide funding (as a loan or advance), to the extent necessary, to pay all costs and expenses incurred in the operation of Main Avenue Pharmacy (to the extent not covered by the funds of the pharmacy)

 

Implex will be entitled to make monthly draws on the first day of each month, as owner of Main Avenue Pharmacy, as follows: (i) commencing on April 1, 2014 and continuing to, and including, March 1, 2015, $47,003 plus $30 for each prescription processed by Main Avenue Pharmacy during the preceding month (except that the first such payment shall include prescriptions processed since the initial closing on February 7, 2014); (ii) commencing on April 1, 2015 and continuing to, and including, March 1, 2016, $8,827 plus $30 for each prescription processed by Main Avenue Pharmacy during the preceding month; (iii) commencing on April 1, 2016 and continuing thereafter plus $30 for each prescription processed by Main Avenue Pharmacy during the preceding month and (iv) commencing on the 10,001 prescription proceeds by Main Avenue Pharmacy the rate will be reduced to $10 for each prescription processed by Main Avenue Pharmacy during the preceding month.

 

For the management services provided by us under this Business Management Agreement, Implex will pay us a combined month Management and Financing Fee. This combined fee will be equal to 97% of the Calculation Basis (as defined in the agreement), which amounts to receipts from paid invoices less Implex’s monthly draw and various expenses of Main Avenue Pharmacy.

 

13
 

 

The Business Management Agreement will have an initial term of five (5) years. If at September 30, 2018 we are not in default under this Business Management Agreement, we have the option to extend the term of the agreement for an additional five year period. The Business Management Agreement can be terminated by either party if (i) the other party (i) breaches the agreement and the breach is not cured within 30 days of notice from the other party or (ii) the liquidation, bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership of the other party.

 

Development Agreement/Intellectual Property

 

We own the Websites www.rapimeds.com and www.scripsamerica.com . We do not have any other intellectual property except as described below.

 

On April 17, 2013 we filed a trademark application for “RAPI-MED” as a trade mark to use for our orally disintegrating drug formulation products prior to the sales of the pain relief rapidly dissolving drug formulation we developed. On March 15, 2013, we filed a trademark application for “MELTS IN YOUR CHILD’S MOUTH” as a trademark for use for our pain relief 80mg and 160 mg orally disintegrating rapid dissolve tablets that we developed. Both of these marks have been successfully registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. On January 14, 2014, “MELTS IN YOUR CHILD’S MOUTH” was put on the Supplemental Register and March 25, 2014 “RAPIDMED” was placed on the Principal Register.

 

During 2015, we expect to submit an application for a “process patent” for how we make our 80 mg and 160 mg pain relief orally disintegrating product. A process patent, if granted, would give us an exclusive method to produce not only our 80 mg and 160 mg pain relief orally disintegrating product but any other orally disintegrating tablets we decide to produce, and it would prevent other companies from using our manufacturing process. However, the process patent will not prevent other companies from producing ODTs using any manufacturing process not covered by our process patent (if granted). In addition, our process patent would not allow us to produce an orally disintegrating tablet that is covered by a product patent of another company (as a product patent gives the holder exclusive rights to the product regardless of how it is produced). If our process patent application is denied, we would not be able to seek protection for our manufacturing process under state trade secret law. Trade secret law protects, among other things, non-patentable processes provided certain conditions are met: (i) the process is generally not known, (ii) the process gives an economic benefit to the owner and (iii) the owner takes reasonable steps of keeping the process secret. By filing a process patent our manufacturing process becomes disclosed to the public and we would be unable to meet the condition of secrecy.

 

Competitors

 

Large, vertically integrated industry players engaged in the development, manufacture, marketing, sale and distribution of generic and/or branded specialty pharmaceuticals in various therapeutic categories include Actavis Group, Apotex, Dr. Reddy’s, Glenmark Pharmaceuticals, Jubilant Life Sciences, Mylan, Par Pharmaceutical Companies, Ranbaxy Laboratories, Sandoz (a division of Novartis), Sun Pharmaceutical Industries, Teva Pharmaceutical Industries, Barr Laboratories (a division of Teva), and Watson Pharmaceuticals.

 

Our independent pharmacy distribution business competes against large and medium sized pharmaceutical distributors such as McKesson, AmerisourceBergen Corporation, Anda Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Cardinal Health, Harvard Drug Group, Capital Wholesale Drug Company, Henry Schein, Inc. and Matrix Distributors, Inc., Medsource Corporation, Sunrise Wholesalers, Inc. and Top Rx. All of these competitors have more financial resources than we do and are better positioned to offer lower prices for pharmaceutical products with better payment terms.

 

In our RapiMed® orally disintegrating tablet business, we compete against small, mid-sized and large pharmaceutical companies. Our major competitors for orally disintegrating tablets for prescription drugs are primarily large pharmaceutical companies such as  ALZA Corporation, BTG, Catalent Pharma Solutions, Shire Plc, Watson Pharmaceuticals, Becton Dickinson and Genzyme Corporation. These companies have significantly greater financial resources and marketing abilities than we do. However, we believe that we can compete effectively against these larger companies by targeting niche markets that are ignored or under-served by these larger pharmaceutical companies. We believe the niche prescription drug market offer, in the aggregate, the opportunity to generate significant revenues in the future.

 

Traditionally, specialty pharmacies tended to be small operations that create special formulations of drugs at the request of doctors. Consequently, there are no dominant competitors in this segment of the specialty pharmacy industry. The specialty pharmacy is, in general, fragmented with primarily single store operations. We do not compete against large-scale drug compounding companies, such as Ameridose and The New England Compounding Center, which are more similar to drug manufacturers than pharmacies.

 

Our orally disintegrating drug formulation for 80 mg and 160 mg acetaminophen will compete with other children’s analgesic products, such as Johnson & Johnson’s Children’s Tylenol Suspension Liquid and Children’s Tylenol Meltaways, Novartis’ Triaminic Fever Reducer Pain Reliever, and Perrigo’s Junior Strength Non-Aspirin Suspension Liquids& Drugs. While the strength of J&J’s Tylenol brand seemed virtually bulletproof in the U.S. until recently, a multitude of product recalls over the past three years have weakened its reputation and opened a window for competitors to capture market share, especially in the children’s analgesics market where pediatricians’ support of the Tylenol brand has seen some erosion. We will launch our rapidly dissolving drug formulation for 80 mg acetaminophen to try to take advantage of the open window in the analgesics market by promoting the advantages of orally disintegrating tables – accurate dosing, patient-friendly and faster onset to accelerate relief.

 

Employees

 

As of April 8, 2014, we had two (2) full time employees and five (5) consultants. We plan to hire more persons on as-needed basis.

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this prospectus before investing in our common stock. If any of the following risks occur, our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed.

 

Risk Related to Our Company

 

As a result of our evolving business model, we have a limited operating history in our lines of business and, therefore, we may not be able to correctly estimate our future operating expenses, which could lead to cash shortfalls. Since our inception, our business model has evolved significantly. In 2013, we moved away from providing these pharmaceutical distribution services as our main source of income, and we focused on generating revenue through (1) the marketing, sale and distribution of our RapiMed® products, (2) our independent pharmacy distribution model and (3) our entry into the specialty pharmacy market. As a result of the change in our business model, our revenues have significantly decreased from prior periods. For the year ended December 31, 2013, our revenues decreased approximately 85.7% from 2012. We have a limited operating history in our new lines of business from which to evaluate our business. Our failure to successfully bring our rapid melt formulations to market or successfully execute our business plan for our independent pharmacy distribution and/or specialty pharmacy business would have a material adverse effect on our ability to continue operating. Accordingly, our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in an early stage of development. We may not be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

 

Further, because of the change in our business model, our historical financial data is of limited value in estimating future operating expenses and future cash flow. Our budgeted expense levels are based in part on our expectations concerning future revenues. However, our ability to generate the needed levels of revenues depends largely on our ability to be successful in our rapid melt drug development, independent pharmacy distribution and specialty pharmacy businesses. Moreover, even if we successfully develop and market rapid melt drug formulation, the size of any future revenues from such product sales depends on the market acceptance of such drugs we develop, which is difficult to forecast accurately. After taking into consideration our 2014 interim results to date and current projections for the remainder of 2014, the Company’s management believes that the Company’s cash flow from operations, coupled with recent financing are not sufficient to support the working capital requirements, debt service, applicable debt maturity requirements, and operating expenses through December 31, 2014. 

 

Our quarterly and annual expenses are likely to increase substantially over the next several years depending upon the level of capital spending required to grow our revenues. Our operating results in future quarters may fall below expectations. Any of these events could adversely impact our business prospects and make it more difficult to raise additional equity capital at an acceptable price per share.

 

Disruptions in our supply chain or among other companies providing services to us could adversely affect our ability to fill purchase orders for our independent pharmacy distribution business, which would have a negative impact on our financial performance. The failure of a single source in the supply chain would cause only minor delays in our ability to fill purchase orders for our independent pharmacy distribution business. In the event of a supply gap, we would either procure product in the market, if available at a reasonable cost, or work with other sources to formulate the drug in question. Such fixes to the supply gap would cause delay of shipment and increase costs, both of which would have negative impact on our profitability and our results of operations.

 

We do not have any written contracts with our customers. This allows such customers to use other companies instead of us which may negatively impact on our sales. Because we do not have any written contracts with our independent pharmacy customers or with our the customers of specialty pharmacy, those customers are free to forward requests for pharmaceutical products or customize pharmaceutical compounds from other distributors or specialty pharmacies (as the case may be). If a significant number of our customers began to use competing companies instead of us, our sales would decrease significantly.

 

15
 

 

Competition from horizontal and vertical markets involved in distribution to independent pharmacies may erode our sales. Our independent pharmacy distribution business faces competition, both in price and service, from national, regional, and local full-line, short-line, and specialty wholesalers, service merchandisers, self-warehousing chains and manufacturers engaged in direct distribution, and from large payor organizations. In addition, competition exists from various other service providers and from pharmaceutical and other healthcare manufacturers (as well as other potential customers) which may from time to time decide to develop, for their own internal needs, supply management capabilities that would otherwise be provided by us. Price, quality of service, and in some cases convenience to the customer are generally the principal competitive elements in this segment and which may cause our customers to use, or end users to request use of, other distributors. Such a shift in distributors would adversely affect our sales.

 

Any technologies, products and businesses that we may acquire to expand or complement our business may be difficult to integrate, could adversely affect our relationships with key customers, and/or could result in significant charges to earnings as well potential dilution to existing stockholders. One element of our business strategy is to identify, pursue and consummate acquisitions that either expand or complement our businesses, namely (1) rapidly dissolving drug formulations for Over the Counter (OTC) drugs, vitamins and supplements, (2) the independent pharmacy distribution market and (3) the specialty pharmacy market . Integration of acquisitions entails a number of risks including the diversion of management’s attention to the assimilation of the operations of acquired businesses; difficulties in the integration of operations and systems; the realization of potential operating synergies; the retention of the personnel of the acquired companies; accounting, regulatory or compliance issues that could arise; challenges in retaining the customers of the combined businesses; and a potential material adverse impact on operating results. If we are not able to successfully integrate our acquisitions, we may not obtain the advantages and synergies that the acquisitions were intended to create, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows, our ability to develop and introduce new products and the market price of our stock. In addition, in connection with acquisitions, we could experience disruption in our business, technology and information systems, customer or employee base, including diversion of management’s attention from our continuing operations. There is also a risk that key employees of companies that we acquire or key employees necessary to successfully commercialize technologies and products that we acquire may seek employment elsewhere, including with our competitors. Furthermore, In addition, we will require additional financing in order to fund future acquisitions, which may or may not be attainable. In addition, if we acquire businesses or products, or enter into other significant transactions, we expect to experience significant charges to earnings for merger and related expenses. These costs may include substantial fees for investment bankers, attorneys, accountants and financial printing costs and severance and other closure costs associated with the elimination of duplicate or discontinued products, operations and facilities. Charges that we may incur in connection with acquisitions could adversely affect our results of operations for particular quarterly or annual periods. Finally, we may use shares of our common stock to finance some or the entire purchase price of an acquisition, which may result in a downward trend in our stock price, especially if our results of operations are negatively impacted by such acquisition(s).

 

We currently rely on a third-party contract manufacturing organizations to manufacture and supply our RapiMed® products. If our manufacturer fails to perform adequately or fulfill our needs, we may be required to incur significant costs and devote significant efforts to find a new manufacturer. We do not own facilities for the manufacturing of our RapiMed® products, and we will rely upon third-party contract manufacturing organizations to manufacture and supply our RapiMed® products. The manufacture of pharmaceutical products in compliance with the FDA's current good manufacturing practices, or cGMPs, requires significant expertise and capital investment, including the development of advanced manufacturing techniques and process controls. Manufacturers of pharmaceutical products often encounter difficulties in production, including difficulties with production costs and yields, quality control, including stability of the product candidate and quality assurance testing, shortages of qualified personnel, as well as compliance with strictly enforced cGMP requirements, other federal and state regulatory requirements and foreign regulations. If our manufacturer was to encounter any of these difficulties or otherwise fail to comply with their obligations to us or under applicable regulations, our ability to fulfill orders for our RapiMed® products would be jeopardized. Any delay or interruption in the supply of RapiMed® products, depending upon the period of delay, may require us to find a new manufacturer and could cause us to lose orders and otherwise have a material adverse effect on our sales of RapiMed® products.

 

We currently rely on a single manufacturer for the production of RapiMed® products to be sold outside of the United States; we do not have a manufacturer for such products to be sold in the United States. Further, although we have finalized terms of a manufacturing and supply agreement, we have yet to sign that agreement with our manufacturer. Although there are alternative manufacturers we could use for the production of our RapiMed® products, it could be expensive and take a significant amount of time to arrange for alternative manufacturers, which would adversely affect our business.

 

We do not own the formula used for the RapiMed® products to be sold outside of the United States, which formula is owned by the manufacturer we will be using. If we are unable to continue to use that manufacturer, our sales of RapiMed® products outside of the United States could be negatively affected. Although we own the registered trademark for RapiMed®, we do not own the formula or other intellectual property with respect to the formula of the RapiMed® products being manufactured for us for sale outside of the United States. Such intellectual property is owned by the manufacturer, although we do expect to own the formula and other intellectual property for the RapiMed® products to be manufactured for sale in the United States. We have finalized terms of our agreement with the manufacturer for the RapiMed® products to be sold outside of the United States and we expect to have this agreement signed in the second quarter of 2014. However, if we fail to get the agreement signed with that manufacturer or if the agreement is subsequently terminated for any reason or the manufacturer is unable to perform its duties under this agreement (such as bankruptcy, regulatory issues or capacity issues), we would have to find a new manufacturer and/or develop or use another formula for the production of RapiMed® products. Not only would we not be able to fill overseas orders for RapiMed® products, which would negatively affect our revenues, but the process to find a new manufacturer and/or develop or use another formula would be costly and time consuming and we may not have the financial resources to find a new manufacturer and/or new formula.

We could suffer reputational and financial damage in the event of product recalls. We may be held liable if any illness or injury caused by any product we distribute to independent pharmacies, any RapiMed® product we develop or market or by any preparation from our specialty pharmacy or if any of the foregoing are found to be unsuitable for use. In addition to any reputational damage we would suffer, we cannot guarantee that our product liability insurance or that of any of our suppliers would fully cover potential liabilities (although we are named as an additional insured on the product liability insurance policies of our suppliers). In the event of litigation, any adverse judgments against us would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, including our cash balances, and results of operations.

 

Our ability to operate effectively could be impaired if we were to lose the services of our key personnel, or if it were unable to recruit key personnel in the future. Our near-term success will depend to a significant extent on the skills and efforts of Robert Schneiderman and Jeffrey Andrews. The Company plans to enter into employment agreements with Messrs. Schneiderman, and Andrews sometime in the future. We expect our cash flow from operations to grow significantly during 2014, primarily from the marketing of our RapiMed® products in China by a third party licensee, our independent pharmacy distribution business and our specialty pharmacy operations. We expect this increased cash flow will be sufficient to pay our executive officer their respective salaries. However, s hould our quarterly sales not continue to grow as expected and we do not maintain our expenses at current levels, our operational cash flow may not be able to support the payment of the salaries of our executive officers and other sources of funding would be required; and there is no guarantee that funding can be raised. The loss of one or more current key employees could have a material adverse effect on our business even if replacements were hired. Our success in the future also depends on our ability to attract and retain additional qualified employees in the future. Competition for such personnel is intense, and we will compete for qualified personnel with numerous other employers, many of whom have greater financial and other resources than we do. We plan to incentivize employees to engage in a long-term relationship with us through awarding equity as part of overall compensation.

 

Risks Related to Our Industry

 

Changes in the U.S. healthcare environment could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations. In recent years, the U.S. healthcare industry has changed significantly in an effort to reduce costs. These changes include increased use of managed care, cuts in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement levels, consolidation of pharmaceutical and medical-surgical supply distributors, and the development of large, sophisticated purchasing groups. Some of these changes, such as adverse changes in government funding of healthcare services, legislation or regulations governing the delivery or pricing of pharmaceuticals and healthcare services or mandated benefits, may cause healthcare industry participants to reduce the amount of our products and services they purchase or the price they are willing to pay for our products and services. Changes in the healthcare industry’s or our pharmaceutical suppliers’ pricing, selling, inventory, distribution or supply policies or practices could also significantly reduce our revenues and net income. Healthcare and public policy trends indicate that the number of generic drugs will increase over the next few years as a result of the expiration of certain drug patents. While this is expected to be a positive development for us, changes in pricing of certain generic drugs could have a material adverse impact on our revenues and our results of operations.

 

Regulation of our distribution business could impose increased costs or delay the introduction of new products, which could negatively impact our business. The healthcare industry is highly regulated. As a result, we and our suppliers and distributor are subject to various local, state and federal laws and regulations, which include the operating and security standards of the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), the FDA, various state boards of pharmacy, state health departments, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, and other comparable agencies. The process and costs of maintaining compliance with such operating and security standards could impose increased costs, delay the introduction of new products and negatively impact our business. For example, there have been increasing efforts by various levels of government agencies, including state boards of pharmacy and comparable government agencies, to regulate the pharmaceutical distribution system in order to prevent the introduction of counterfeit, adulterated and/or mislabeled drugs into the pharmaceutical distribution system. Certain states have adopted or are considering laws and regulations that are intended to protect the integrity of the pharmaceutical distribution system, while other government agencies are currently evaluating their recommendations. In addition, the Drug Quality and Security Act, signed into law on November 27, 2013, establishes a track-and-trace pedigree system for drugs which will be phased in over a ten year period. These pedigree tracking laws and regulations will increase the overall regulatory burden and costs associated with our independent pharmacy distribution business, and would have a material adverse impact on our operating expenses and our results of operations.

 

Risks Related to Our Stock

 

Until our evolving business plan generates sufficient cash flow from operations to cover our expenses, we will need to raise additional capital by sales of our common stock and we may issue shares of our common stock for payment of services, which may adversely affect the market price of our common stock and your rights in us may be reduced. In 2013 we moved away from providing these pharmaceutical distribution services as our main source of income, and we focused on generating revenue through (1) the marketing, sale and distribution of our RapiMed® products, (2) our independent pharmacy distribution model and (3) entry into the specialty pharmacy market . However, we have to use all of our available cash to get these new lines of business up and running. Until our operations generate sufficient cash flow to cover our expenses, need to raise funds by issuing additional debt or equity securities. During 2013, we issued 35,387,867 shares of common stock for the conversion of debt securities and for the payment of services provided. If we must continue to raise funds by the sale of equity or convertible debt securities and/or issue shares of our common stock (or securities convertible, exchangeable or exercisable for common stock), our existing stockholders may experience dilution, and the new equity or debt securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our existing stockholders. If we incur additional debt, it may increase our leverage relative to our earnings or to our equity capitalization, requiring us to pay additional interest expenses and potentially lower our credit ratings. We may not be able to market such issuances on favorable terms, or at all, in which case, we may not be able to develop or enhance our products, execute our business plan, take advantage of future opportunities, or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated customer requirements.

State securities laws may limit secondary trading, which may restrict the states in which and conditions under which you can sell the shares offered by this prospectus. Secondary trading in our common stock will not be possible in any state until the common stock is qualified for sale under the applicable securities laws of the state or there is confirmation that an exemption, such as listing in certain recognized securities manuals, is available for secondary trading in the state. If we fail to register or qualify, or to obtain or verify an exemption for the secondary trading of, the common stock in any particular state, the common stock could not be offered or sold to, or purchased by, a resident of that state. In the event that a significant number of states refuse to permit secondary trading in our common stock, the liquidity for the common stock could be significantly impacted thus causing you to realize a loss on your investment.

 

Our board of directors has the power to designate a series of preferred stock without shareholder approval that could contain conversion or voting rights that adversely affect the voting power of holders of our common stock and may have an adverse effect on our stock price. Our Certificate of Incorporation provide for the authorization of 10,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock. Pursuant to our Certificate of Incorporation, our Board of Directors is authorized to issue such “blank check” preferred stock with rights that are superior to the rights of stockholders of our common stock, at a purchase price then approved by our Board of Directors, which purchase price may be substantially lower than the market price of shares of our common stock, without stockholder approval. In March 2011, our Board of Directors authorized 2,990,252 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for a private placement of such shares for an aggregate purchase price of $1,043,000. Though we currently do not have any plans to issue any additional shares of preferred stock, such issuance could give the holders of such preferred stock voting control of the Company which would have a negative effect on the voting power of the holders of our common stock and may cause our stock price to decline.

 

The sale of shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of our outstanding shares of our Series A Preferred Stock and outstanding convertible notes could have a negative impact on the market price of our stock if sold. We have   2,990,252 shares of Series A Preferred Stock that are convertible into 5,980,504 shares of common stock and we have outstanding convertible notes that could be converted into 16,241,852 shares of common stock (representing, together, approximately   17% of the outstanding stock on a fully diluted basis). A substantial portion of the shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock and the outstanding convertible notes are eligible to be sold to the public under Rule 144. If our common stock does not trade with large enough share volume, the sales of the common stock issued upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock and the convertible notes may cause the price of our stock to drop significantly. Additionally, the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock has registration rights for the shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock. If the Series A Preferred stockholder exercises such registration rights, such stockholder could sell a large number of shares of our common stock which could cause a significant drop in our stock price.

 

The outstanding shares of our Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to rights and privileges in regard to distribution of assets and protective provisions which may result in actions adverse to the holders of our common stock. So long as there are shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding, the holders of such security are entitled to an annual dividend of 8% of the original purchase price, as well as priorities to our distribution of cash and other assets. The holder of Series A Preferred Stock also has veto power over certain corporate matters, such as redeeming or repurchasing capital stock or any merger, consolidation or share exchange that would result in a change of control. The rights of the Series A Preferred Stockholder will continue until all of the shares are converted into our common stock (either voluntarily or upon an underwritten IPO in which we have gross proceeds of at least $25 million and a price per share of at least $0.872). The holder of such rights of the Series A Preferred Stock may have interests adverse to the common stockholders and the exercise of such rights may have a negative impact on the value of our common stock or the amount of cash or other assets our common stockholders may receive in connection with a distribution or merger, consolidation or share exchange.

We lack legal funds to pay dividends for the foreseeable future and, as a result, we will not be able to pay any dividends during such period, including dividends owed to the Series A Preferred Stockholder, which we will have to accrue until paid. The Series A Preferred Stock that we issued on April 1, 2011 is reported as a derivative liability. The $1,043,000 invested in such Series A Preferred Stock was not recorded in the Shareholders' Deficit section of our balance sheet, but rather is shown as a liability. Consequently, for the year ended December 31, 2013, we had a stockholders’ deficit of $3,617,393 (rather than stockholders’ deficit of $2,574,393 if we had booked such investment in the Shareholders’ Deficit section of the balance sheet). Additionally, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, we had a net loss available to common stockholders of approximately $11.2 million. Because we had a loss for 2013 and we have - stockholders’ deficit on our balance sheet, under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law our directors cannot declare a dividend that exceeds our stockholders’ deficit without incurring personal liability. Unless we have a profit in 2013, our board of directors will not be able to declare a dividend nor will we be able to pay the full dividend owed to the Series A Preferred Stockholder which dividends will accrue on our balance sheet. We will not be able to declare any dividends to our common stockholders until the accrued dividends owed to the Series A Preferred Stockholder have been paid. If and when we have net profits, except for any dividends owed to the holder of our Series A Preferred Stock, we anticipate that we will retain all of our future earnings for use in the development of our business and for general corporate purposes. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our board of directors. Accordingly, investors must rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any future gains on their investments.

 

Our common stock is expected to be considered “a penny stock” and, as a result, it may be difficult to trade a significant number of shares of our common stock. The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has adopted regulations that generally define “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to specific exemptions. When our common stock becomes eligible for quotation on the OTC markets (such as the bulletin board), we expect the market price of our common stock to be less than $5.00 per share. As a result of our prior private placements and our forward stock split, we have increased the number of shares outstanding by almost three-fold. Consequently, when our common stock becomes eligible for quotation on the OTC markets it is likely that the market price for our common stock will remain less than $5.00 per share for the foreseeable future and, therefore, may be a “penny stock” according to SEC rules. This designation requires any broker or dealer selling these securities to disclose certain information concerning the transaction, obtain a written agreement from the purchaser and determine that the purchaser is reasonably suitable to purchase the securities. These rules may restrict the ability of brokers or dealers to sell our common stock and may affect the ability of investors hereunder to sell their shares. In addition, because we are seeking to have our common stock trade on the OTC markets, investors may find it difficult to obtain accurate quotations of the stock and may experience a lack of buyers to purchase such stock or a lack of market makers to support the stock price.

Our Transfer Agent

 

We have appointed Olde Monmouth Stock Transfer Company, with offices at 200 Memorial Parkway, Atlantic Highlands, New Jersey 07716, phone number 732-872-2727, as transfer agent for our shares of common stock. The transfer agent is responsible for all record-keeping and administrative functions in connection with our shares of common stock.

 

Dividend Policy

 

The Series A Preferred Stock is paid a dividend at annual rate of 8% of the purchase price, which dividend is paid at the end of each fiscal quarter. Such dividends are cumulative.

 

The Series A Preferred Stock, which we issued on April 1, 2011 is reported as mezzanine equity because the Series A Preferred Stock has liquidation preferences which are outside the control of the Company. The $1,043,000 invested in such Series A Preferred Stock was not recorded in the Shareholders' Deficit section of our balance sheet, but rather is shown as a liability. Consequently, for the year ended December 31, 2013, we had a stockholders’ deficit of $3,470,827 (rather than stockholders’ deficit of $2,427,827 if we had booked such investment in the Shareholders’ Deficit section of the balance sheet). Additionally, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, we had a net loss of approximately $11.2 million. Because we had a loss for 2013 and we have a retained deficit on our balance sheet, our directors cannot declare dividends under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law without incurring personal liability. Unless we have a profit in 2014, our board of directors will not be able to declare a dividend nor will we be able to pay the dividend owed to the Series A Preferred Stockholder which dividends will accrue on our balance sheet.

 

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our shares of common stock, and despite the retained deficit on our balance sheet, we do not anticipate paying any dividend on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

 

Except for any dividends owed to the holder of our Series A Preferred Stock (as described above), we anticipate that we will retain all of our future earnings to finance our operations and expansion. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors (subject to the approval of the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock) and will depend upon our earnings levels, capital requirements, any restrictive loan covenants and other factors the Board considers relevant. The Series A Preferred Stock is paid a dividend at annual rate of 8% of the purchase price, which dividend is paid at the end of each fiscal quarter. Each quarterly payment of such dividend is approximately $20,860.

 

In addition to the Board approval, we cannot declare or pay any dividends on our common stock (other than in shares of our own common stock) unless we first pay to the Series A Preferred Stockholder a dividend equal to (i) all quarterly dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock that have accrued but that we have not paid to the Series A Preferred Stockholder plus (ii) the amount of the common stock dividend that the Series A Preferred Stockholder would get if he converted all of his shares of Series A Preferred Stock into our common stock. Accordingly, investors must rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize any future gains on their investments.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

 

From May 2010 through April 2011, we issued promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $794,000 to four (4) investors. Of this amount, we issued promissory notes aggregating $50,000 to Robert Schneiderman, our Chief Executive Officer, and notes aggregating $30,000 to Harry James Production DBA R S and Associates a company owned by Mr. Schneiderman. In March 2012, our CEO and president agreed to amend the maturity date and interest rate on his $50,000 promissory notes and the $30,000 promissory notes held by Harry James Production DBA R S and Associates. The maturity date on these notes has been extend from September 30, 2012 until January 30, 2014. The interest rate on the notes has been decreased from 2% monthly to 1% monthly effective on October 1, 2012. The remaining promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $714,000 were issued to Jim and Joanne Speers ($514,000) and Leon Hurst ($200,000). These notes provide for monthly interest only payments of 1% of principal payable, at the lenders’ option, in cash or in shares of our common stock (based on a valuation of $0.50 per share). Upon maturity, outstanding principal is payable and may be converted to common stock of the Company at $0. 25 per share at the option of the lenders. The notes have a one (1) year term and mature at various dates from May 2011 through January 2014. The convertible notes were issued to such investors in reliance on the exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The convertible notes qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act since the issuances by us did not involve a public offering. The offering was not a “public offering” as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of shares offered. The recipients of the convertible notes were accredited investors and acknowledged the restricted nature of the notes they acquired. Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act for this transaction.

 

On March 12, 2012, each of Mr. Hurst and Jim and Joanne Speers converted $125,000 in principal of their notes into 1,000,000 shares of our common stock.

 

In November 2010 and February 2011, we issued an aggregate of 50,000 shares of our common stock to Four Seasons Financial Group as fees for assistance provided to us in capital raising efforts, which assistance has been completed (and is no longer being provided). These shares had a market value of $12,500 at the time of issuance, and they were issued in reliance on the exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. These shares of our common stock qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act since the issuance shares by us did not involve a public offering. The offering was not a “public offering” as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of shares offered.

On April 1, 2011 we closed on the sale of 2,990,252 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock to a single accredited investor for a purchase price of $1,043,000.

As of the date of this prospectus, each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into two shares of our common stock. The conversion ratio of the Series A Preferred Stock is subject to adjustment (as described below) The Series A Preferred Stock is paid a dividend at annual rate of 8% of the purchase price, which dividend is paid at the end of each fiscal quarter. Such dividends are cumulative. Of the seven members of our board of directors, the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock, as a single class, gets to elect one (1) director to the board and will vote with the common stockholders to elect four (4) directors (the common stockholders will elect, as a single class, two (2) directors). The Series A Preferred Stockholder will have approval right over certain corporate actions, namely our liquidation or dissolution, any merger, share exchange or asset sale that results in a change of control, the payment of any dividends or the redemption of stock (except for stock dividends, change of control transaction and termination of employment or service). The Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into 5,980,505 shares of our common stock (based on a conversion price of $0.1744, which was adjusted as a result of the forward stock split effected on April 15, 2011. The conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock will be adjusted for any issuances of stock by us at a price per share less than $0.1744 (subject to certain exemptions such as securities issued under an employee stock option plan or securities issued in business transactions approved by our board). The Series A Preferred Stock has priority to assets over the common stockholders in the event of liquidation, dissolution or any merger, share exchange or consolidation in which we are not the surviving entity or there is a change in control of us). These rights of the Series A Preferred Stockholder continue until all of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock are converted into our common stock. These shares of our Series A Preferred Stock qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act since the issuance shares by us did not involve a public offering. The offering was not a “public offering” as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of shares offered. Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act for this transaction.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial information included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

Overview

 

ScripsAmerica, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Delaware on May 12, 2008. Since our inception, ScripsAmerica’s business model has evolved significantly. Through March 2013, and to a lesser extent into early 2014, the Company primarily provided pharmaceutical distribution services to a wide range of end users across the health care industry through major pharmaceutical distributors in North America, such as McKesson Corporation and Cardinal Health . The end users include retail, hospitals, long-term care facilities and government and home care agencies. The majority of the Company’s revenue from this model came from orders facilitated by McKesson, the largest pharmaceutical distributor in North America, and a few other clients.

 

However, we had no exclusive contract with McKesson and the Company’s other pharmaceutical distributors to utilize our services and our margins became compressed. As a result, in 2013 the business of providing these pharmaceutical distribution services became curtailed and we are now primarily focused on generating revenue through (1) the marketing, sale and distribution of our RapiMed® products, (2) our support arrangements and financing agreements with companies servicing the independent pharmacy distribution business and (3) our entry into the specialty pharmacy market. Specifically, we have developed a branded OTC product called “RapiMed” (www.rapimeds.com), which is a children’s pain reliever and fever reducer currently launched in China though our joint venture entity Global Pharma Hub, and which we hope to launch in retail outlets in North America sometime in 2014. We have also entered into agreements with third parties pursuant to which we receive fees based on a formula tied to the gross profit on sales of pharmaceutical products to independent pharmacies by such third parties. Lastly, on February 20, 2014 we entered into an agreement with a New Jersey specialty pharmacy that specializes in topical pain creams, pursuant to which we manage their business operations in exchange for a percentage of the pharmacy’s total revenue.

 

Evolving Business Model

 

Since our inception, ScripsAmerica’s business model has evolved significantly. Initially, the company primarily provided pharmaceutical distribution services to a wide range of end users across the health care industry through the pharmaceutical distributors in North America. End users include retail, hospitals, long-term care facilities and government and home care agencies. The majority of our revenue from this model came from orders facilitated by McKesson, the largest pharmaceutical distributor in North America, and a few other clients.

 

However, because we had no exclusive contract with McKesson to utilize our services and the margins began to shrink, we have moved away from providing these pharmaceutical distribution services as our main source of income and are now primarily focused on generating revenue through our RapiMed® products and our independent pharmacy distribution model.

 

On September 6, 2013, the Company and Marlex Pharmaceuticals, Inc., its former Contract Packager, pursuant to which the Company and its former Contract Packager resolved various disagreements that had arisen between the parties on various projects covered by written agreements between the Company and its former Contract Packager, namely (i) the Contract Packager’s agreement with the U.S. government , (ii) the parties agreement with respect to the production and packaging of the Company’s RapiMed ® products and (iii) shares of the Company’s stock issued to the principals of the Contract Packager for consulting services , entered into a settlement agreement. The settlement agreement provided mutual releases, continued the U.S. government arrangement under modified terms, as well as a partial reimbursement over fifteen months for previous amounts due the Company.

 

25
 

 

This new agreement stipulates that the Company will provide financing through a related party, Development 72 LLC, for the continuance of its pharmaceutical distribution contract with the U.S. government and for the Contract Packager to make 15 monthly payments to the Company, totaling $408,154.95, with respect to prior shipments under U.S. government contract (which had had stopped in May 2013 due to a dispute but have resumed in September 2013) which were previously reserved for or written off in 2013. The Company’s percentage of the profits under the U.S. government contract had been revised in terms of the rate and the number of bottles of product sold to the U.S. government for which the Company would receive payments.

 

To protect our position with respect to the RapiMed ® products we also terminated the Rapid Melt tablet agreement with the Contract Packager. All development costs through the date of this cancellation agreement have previously been expensed and paid. The Company subsequently entered into a manufacturing and supply contract directly with the manufacturer of this technology, however, this agreement was subsequently terminated in 2013.

 

RapiMed Children’s Pain Reliever and Fever Reducer

 

Our target market for RapiMed ® is 2-11 year olds and we anticipate that the formula for our orally disintegrating tablets will be more effective than existing products due to its ability to melt faster, taste better and provide more accurate dosing.

 

Unlike other products available, ScripsAmerica’s is much smaller and dissolves in the child’s mouth in 25 seconds, therefore entering their system faster. RapiMed ® contains Acetaminophen (main ingredient in Tylenol), however the bitter taste of this active ingredient is masked by a patented technology. The cherry and wild grape flavors that our product will come in are most appealing to children. Additionally, the dosage of RapiMed ® is controlled, not like the syringe based competing products and we offer the 80 mg for 2-6 year olds, and 160 mg for the 6-11 year olds.

 

The RapiMed ® packaging is convenient, portable, child resistant and easy to use as well as eye-catching. The product will be labeled in both English and Spanish to serve the expanding Hispanic markets in America. The contents are aspirin free, ibuprofen free, sugar free and gluten free as well. Since the numerous Tylenol recalls in the recent past, there is a clear need for a better controlled, more efficient product to fill the void. We believe our RapiMed is that product.

 

ScripsAmerica presented RapiMed to retail buyers in February of 2013 at the ECRM Cough and Cold show in Florida and we received very positive feedback. We have engaged DPG to roll out the product to retailers nationwide once we secure adequate funding. Depending on the retailer, the product will be promoted through in-store temporary price reductions, coupons, store circulars, buy-two-and save packs, as a clip-strip program, radio and print advertising.

 

In January 2014, we entered into an exclusive world-wide licensing agreement with Global Pharma Hub for the marketing and distribution of our children’s pain reliever and fever reducer OTC product called RapiMed® in all countries except the United States. The license will allow Global Pharma Hub to market and distribute the children’s acetaminophen orally dissolving tablets under our registered trademark, RapiMed® as well as our registered trade mark “ MELTS IN YOUR CHILD'S MOUTH” . In order to keep the license agreement, Global Pharma Hub must meet minimum sales quotas terms which are as follows:

 

1. $500,000 in purchase orders during first 12 months of License Agreement;
2. $1,400,000 in purchase orders during second 12 months; and
3. $2,400,000 in purchase orders during the third 12 months.

 

Global Pharma Hub signed an exclusive sub-licensing agreement for RapiMed in the territory of Hong Kong on January 28, 2014, with NYJJ Hong Kong Ltd. to generate initial and ongoing orders for the product following its registration approval by the Hong Kong government.  The minimum sales quotas terms of the exclusive Hong Kong sub-licensing agreement are as follows:

 

1. $550,000 in purchase orders during first 12 months;
2. $1,500,000 in purchase orders during the second 12 months; and
3. $2,500,000 in purchase orders during the third12 months.

 

On February 22, 2014, Global Pharma Hub signed an exclusive sub-licensing agreement with Jetsaw Pharmaceutical, Inc. the marketing and distribution of RapiMed® pediatric acetaminophen in the territory of Canada for an initial term of three years. The minimum sales quotas terms of the exclusive Hong Kong sub-licensing agreement are as follows:

 

1. $120,000 in purchase orders during first 12 months;
2. $220,000 in purchase orders during the second 12 months; and
3. $320,000 in purchase orders during the third12 months.

Independent Pharmacy Distribution

 

In addition to its RapiMed® products, we are also implementing our plan to generate significant revenue by entering the Independent Pharmacy distribution market.

 

This market will allow us to provide a much-needed solution to a problem experienced by small retail chains and individual pharmacies which is their inability to fill prescriptions for their clients when the prescription calls for controlled substances. The reason for this problem is that in order to secure these controlled substances the manufacturers of these products impose minimum order quantities that are far beyond the size of orders typically made by small, independent pharmacies.

 

As of November 1, 2013, ScripsAmerica entered into an agreement with WholesaleRx, Inc., which that represents over 700 such independent pharmacy operations and is a DEA and State-licensed to store and distribute controlled substances (which are drugs that have the potential for abuse or dependence and are regulated under the federal Controlled Substances Act) . WholesaleRx orders the goods from the manufacturers and has them shipped to its warehouse facility. WholesaleRx then ships the goods to the pharmacies in the bottles as received by the manufacturer. Upon receiving orders from the pharmacies, goods will be sent to them COD which will eliminate any accounts receivable issues. Prior to November 1, 2013, the Company and WholesaleRx had an oral agreement to pursuant to which the Company secured third party financing to fund WholesaleRx’s purchase orders and the Company in consideration of which the Company would receive 12.5% of the WholesaleRx’s “gross profit” for the prior month (which gross profit would consist of (i) sales to all customers minus (ii) cost of goods sold, freight in (to WholesaleRx), credits and allowances). Under the November 1 Agreement, ScripsAmerica agreed to provide purchase order financing to WholesaleRx and purchased a 20% equity stake in WholesaleRx. In consideration for providing financing for WholesaleRx’s purchaser orders, and to cover the Company’s costs in administering the purchase order financing, WholesaleRx has agreed to pay the Company on or before the 15 th calendar day of each month 20% of the gross profit (as described above) for the prior calendar month. If WholesaleRx is late in paying such 20% fee, then the amount owed will accrue interest at the rate of 18% per annum until paid.

 

In December, 2013, the Company revised an October 2013 purchase agreement to acquire 90% of the Membership Units in P.I.M.D. International, LLC (“ PIMD”), a start-up limited liability company based in, and proposing to do business in, Florida. Although founded approximately 4 years ago, PIMD has had no sales, but has the necessary licenses for operation of a drug wholesale operation. The purchase of the Membership Units in PIMD was subject to certain conditions precedent, of which the most important was that the Company obtain the necessary licenses from Florida (and the DEA) for the ownership of a drug distribution company like PIMD. However, it was determined that securing the licenses was going to require a substantially longer period of time than the parties had anticipated. Consequently, in order to preserve the business opportunity, it was necessary to change the structure of the relationship. Accordingly, the original purchase agreement was cancelled and voided. The funds already advanced by ScripsAmerica to PIMD were converted to a loan and the relationship between PIMD and ScripsAmerica became a Sourcing and Marketing Agreement

 

Under this Sourcing and Marketing Agreement, which the Company entered into with PIMD in December 2013, the Company will assist PIMD by helping PIMD to (1) secure advantageous sources of drugs and (2) secure marketing and sales assistance in selling the drugs. For these services, the Company will receive a “Sourcing and Marketing Fee” which is 45% of the “Calculated Basis” to be calculated under a formula in the Sourcing and Marketing Agreement. PIMD has no material sales in fiscal 2013 and no sales as of the three months ended March 31, 2014, but should be operational by the end of June 2014. Under our agreement with PIMD, we have no authority or control with respect to PIMD’s business - the purchase of the drugs and the sale of the drugs. Additionally, we do not have any authority to bind PIMD for any transaction relating to the purchase, sale or transfer of pharmaceutical products.

 

On February 20, 2014, Implex Corporation and Main Avenue Pharmacy, Inc., the specialty pharmacy being acquired by Implex, entered into a Business Management Agreement with ScripsAmerica, effective as of February 7, 2014. Under this agreement, Implex has engaged the Company to manage the day to day business operations of Main Avenue Pharmacy, subject to the directives of Implex. The Company’s day to day management responsibilities includes financial management but excludes any matters related to licensing and those responsibilities which require Federal or state licensure (“Licensing Matters”). Prior to the final closing, the Licensing Matters will be handled by Main Avenue Pharmacy’s owner and after the final closing Implex will be responsible for managing Licensing Matters. The Company will also provide funding (as a loan or advance), to the extent not covered by the funds of the pharmacy, to pay all costs and expenses incurred in the operation of Main Avenue Pharmacy.

 

Implex will be entitled to make monthly draws on the first day of each month, as owner of Main Avenue Pharmacy, as follows: (i) commencing on April 1, 2014 and continuing to, and including, March 1, 2015, $47,003 plus $30 for each prescription processed by Main Avenue Pharmacy during the preceding month (except that the first such payment shall include prescriptions processed since the initial closing on February 7, 2014); (ii) commencing on April 1, 2015 and continuing to, and including, March 1, 2016, $8,827 plus $30 for each prescription processed by Main Avenue Pharmacy during the preceding month; (iii) commencing on April 1, 2016 and continuing thereafter plus $30 for each prescription processed by Main Avenue Pharmacy during the preceding month and (iv) commencing on the 10,001 prescription processed by Main Avenue Pharmacy the rate will be reduced to $10 for each prescription processed by Main Avenue Pharmacy during the preceding month.

 

For the management services provided by the ScripsAmerica under this Business Management Agreement, Implex will pay us a combined monthly Management and Financing Fee. This combined fee will be equal to 97% of the Calculation Basis (receipts from paid invoices less Implex’s monthly draw and various expenses of Main Avenue Pharmacy). Since ScripsAmerica will have significant controlling interest via related party relationships and will be the primary beneficiary, the Company will consolidate financial activities of Main Avenue Pharmacy.

Description of Revenues

 

ScripsAmerica offers fulfillment of prescription and over the counter (“OTC”) orders. To fulfill purchase orders from customers, ScripsAmerica processes orders to the end user’s desired specifications. Capabilities range from unit of use packaging for in-patient nursing homes and hospitals to bulk packaging for government and international organizations.

 

Product Revenue associated with our curtailed pharmaceutical distribution services is recognized when product is shipped from a contract packager to our customers’ warehouses and is adjusted for anticipated charge backs from our customers which include inventory credits, discounts or volume incentives. These charge back costs are received monthly from our customers’ and the sales revenue and accounts receivables are reduced accordingly based on historical experience, customer contract programs, product pricing trends and the mix of products shipped.

 

Purchase orders from our customers generate our shipments, provide persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists and that the pricing is determinable. The credit worthiness of our customers assures that collectability is reasonably assured.

 

We also recognize revenue from our contract packager on a net basis according to ASC 605-45, Revenue Recognition: Principal Agent Considerations. Since we are not deemed to be the principal in these sales transactions we do not report the transaction on a gross basis in our statement of operations. These sales transactions relate to a contract that our Contract Packager has obtained with a government agency. The revenue is reported in a separate line in the statement of operations as Product revenues net from Contract Packager, the gross sales are reduced by the cost of sales fees from our Contract Packager.

 

In addition, commission fees are recognized when earned on shipments of generic pharmaceutical and OTC products by WholesaleRx, which is a DEA and State-licensed to store and distribute controlled substances, pursuant to an agreement entered into as of November 1, 2013. Under this written agreement with WholesaleRx, the Company will earn a 20% commission fees on the gross margin of products shipped to independent pharmacies by WholesaleRx. From August 2013 to October 31, 2013, the Company had been receiving a 12.5% commission fee on the gross margin of such shipments under an oral agreement with WholesaleRx.

In 2012, the majority of the Company’s revenue was generated from the sales of generic pharmaceutical prescription orders under our pharmaceutical distribution services business. In fiscal year 2013 the Company generated net sales revenue of approximately $556,000 as compared to net sales revenue of approximately $3,915,000 for 2012, a decrease of approximately $3,359,000, or 86%. The decline in sales was mainly a result the Company’s decision to exit sales to McKesson due to increase charge back costs and the discontinued sales to Cutis Pharmaceuticals and MedVet which we had significant sales a year ago. Revenue from the U.S. government contract through our former Contract Packager did not replace the lost sales volume partly because the U.S. government sales are recorded net of costs. The Company sales for fiscal year 2013 would have been approximately $2.2 million higher if the sales for U.S. government were recorded at gross and were not recognized on the net basis for sales associated with the U.S. government contract with our former Contract Packager. In August 2013 we began earning revenue from our arrangements with independent pharmacies pursuant to an oral agreement with WholesaleRx, a pharmaceutical distributor, under which we earn a commission of 12.5% on the gross margin of generic pharmaceutical and OTC product sales shipped to independent pharmacies by WholesaleRx. On November 1, 2013, we entered into a Master Agreement with WholesaleRx which increased the commission to 20%. WholesaleRx sales were approximately $599,000 for five months of shipments in fiscal year 2013, for which we earned a commission of approximately $70,000.

 

For the twelve months period ended December 31, 2013 U.S. government sales accounted for 60% of our net revenue and McKesson accounted for 27% of our net revenue (versus 4% and 74%, respectively, of net revenue for the same period in 2012). Cutis Pharmaceuticals and MedVet accounted for another 22% of our net revenue in 2012. Commissions of approximately $70,000 in 2013 accounted for the other 12% of our revenue.

 

Gross Profit: Gross profit for fiscal year 2013 was approximately $60,000, which was 11% of our net sales as compared to a gross profit equal to 14% net sales in 2012. The decline of approximately $471,000, or 88%, in gross profit from fiscal year 2012 was mainly due to the sales decline of approximately $3.4 million due to the Company’s decision not to continue its relationship with McKesson. Sales for prescription drug products and OTC products declined 93% from the prior year. The sales on our U.S. government contract which has only a 7% margin also contributed to the decline in our gross margin. Also impacting our gross margin percentage was the royalty expenses included in cost of goods for 2013 in the amount to approximately $286,000 as compared to approximately $53,000 in 2012.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Our 2013 operating expenses consist of Selling, General and Administrative expenses excluding share-based compensation issued for services in the amount of approximately $2.4 million, share-based compensation issued for services in the amount of approximately $3.8 million and provision for receivable for our contract packager receivable in the amount of approximately $1.1 million.

Selling, General and Administrative. For the year ended December 31, 2013, selling, general and administrative expenses (“S,G&A”) increased approximately $4.2 million to approximately $6.2 million as compared to approximately $2.0 million for fiscal year 2012, which includes approximately $4.0 million of non-cash expenses resulting from the issuance of our Company’s common stock for payment of services. The changes in S,G&A expenses was mainly a result of (a) an increase in selling costs (see chart above for dollar change versus 2012) mainly due to the distribution of samples associated with our selling efforts to promote the RapiMed® rapidly disintegrating tablet, which also included costs associated for trade shows and advertising, (b) an increase in professional fees, consisting mainly of legal costs, accounting fees and general consulting fees, (c) an increase in consulting costs consisting of costs associated with financing and debt raising costs, as well as expertise advise for potential projects, (d) an increase in investor relations and public relations costs which include costs associated with market awareness of the Company’s stock, press releases, assistance in capital raising and fees for obtaining funding, (e) a small decline in human resource expenses which included salary and benefits and board of directors costs and (f) an increase in general expense which includes D&O insurances, telephone, computer expenses, and general overhead and other office type expenses.

 

Share-based compensation issued for services: Due our cash flow issues in 2013 and 2012 we issued common stock for payment of service to various vendor. The following table list what area of Selling, General and Administrative we issue our common stock for:

 

                  (  ) = unfavorable  
    2013     2012     $  Change  
Consulting     892,000       143,000       (749,000 )

Total Selling, General & Administrative     3,792,000       178,000       (3,614,000 )

 

Provision for receivable from our contract packager: In the second quarter of 2013, the Company fully reserved and expensed $1,210,999 for the remaining balance of loans and receivables from its former Contract Packager because they were deemed uncollectable. Under the settlement agreement the Company and its former Contract Packager entered into on September 6, 2013 we have received $81,631 in cash payments as of December 31, 2013. Because collectibility is uncertain, we release the reserve as cash is received. The settlement agreement stipulates repayment of a total of $408,154 over the next 15 months.

 

Research and Development. The Company’s expenditures for research and development cost declined approximately $38,000, for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012. The decline in our research and development costs can mainly be attributed to the completion of our on-going research related to new product development at the end of 2011.

Total Other Expenses. Other expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013 increased by approximately $3.6 million to approximately $3.9 million from approximately $273,000 in 2012.

 

The dollar changes for fiscal year 2013 versus 2012 for other expenses consist of the following:

 

                (  ) = unfavorable Change  
Other expenses :     2013       2012        $ change  
Interest expense     (333,000 )     (225,000 )     (108,000 )
Loss from derivative issued with debt greater carrying value     (1,180,000 )           (1,180,000 )
Loss on revaluation of derivatives     (1,289,000 )     (7,000 )     (1,282,000 )
Financing costs     (972,000 )           (972,000 )
Amortization of debt discount     (785,000 )     (41,000 )     (744,000 )
Gain on extinguishment     637,000             637,000  
Income from equity investments     2,000             2,000  
Total Other expenses     (3,920,000 )     (273,000 )     (3,647,000 )

 

Other expenses consist of interest expense, amortization of debt discount, change in fair value of derivative liabilities and gain on extinguishment of debt. A significant portion, approximately $1.3 million, of the total increase in other expenses was due to the value change in our derivative liabilities from our convertible notes payable. The increase in the revaluation of derivative liabilities at December 31, 2013 relates partially to the Company having sufficient trading activity to utilize the actual volatility of the Company’s stock as an assumption when computing the fair value of derivative liabilities commencing in January 2013. The Company had previously estimated the volatility assumption by averaging the volatility of the equity security of three similar entities which resulted in a lower volatility. The increase in value of the volatility assumption has led to a higher valuation of derivative liabilities associated with the convertible notes payable.

 

Interest expense in 2013 consist of the following: a) interest on our convertible debts, this amount was approximately $239,000, of this amount we made cash payments of $140,000 in 2013 the balance was an accrued expenses associated with our convertible notes payable, b) interest cost associated with a term loan of $500,001 was approximately $37,000, and approximately $15,000 for fiscal year 2013 and 2012, respectively, c) interest costs associated with the Company’s line of credit with a bank was approximately $4,000 for 2013 as compared to approximately $750 for the same period in 2012, d) Interest cost associated with our purchase order financing was approximately $73,000 for 2013 and approximately $36,000 for 2012, included in the 2013 total is $48,000 from related party. Our total interest expense for 2013 was approximately $333,000 as compared to approximately $225,000 in 2012.

 

We incurred a loss from derivatives values issued with our variable convertible notes payable because the derivative value was greater than the carrying value of the notes payable this amount of approximately $1,180,000 in 2013.

 

The loss on derivative liability was approximately $1,289,000 for 2013 compared to $7,000 for the same period in 2012. The change is a result of our stock volatility discussed above.

 

With an extinguishment of debt from paying off convertible notes early we incurred gains of approximately $637,000.

 

We also incurred financing fees because we issued common stock greater than the value associate with debt in the amount of approximately $972,000 in 2013.

 

Income taxes (benefit). Total income taxes expense for fiscal December 31, 2013 was none as compared to a tax expense of $43,000 for 2012. For 2013 and 2012 the Company incurred losses that increased the current deferred tax benefit but since the likelihood of not being able to recover the deferred tax benefit a valuation allowance of 100% of the tax benefit was applied. In 2012 we recorded a valuation allowance to our deferred tax asset of $597,591 offsetting potential tax benefit. Prior to 2012 we did not have a reserve allowance.

 

Net Loss Applicable to Common Shares. The Company recorded a net loss of approximately $11,213,000 in fiscal year 2013, compared to a net loss of approximately $1,862,000 for 2012, an increase in our net loss of approximately $9,351,000 as compared to prior year. This increase in net loss is mainly due to our significant reduction in our sales resulting in a decline of approximately $3.4 million causing a profit margin decline of approximately $2.9 million in 2013 versus 2012. Also contributing to the loss was an increase in our SG&A expense of approximately $4.2 million, as described above. We also incurred an expense of $1.1 million for write-off of our receivable with our former Contract Packager for possibility on non-collections. Other income/expenses increased approximately $3.6 million in 2013 as compared to 2012 as described above. Research and development cost declined approximately $381,000 from the 2012 spending. The Company accrued a preferred stock dividend of $83,440 in both 2013 and 2012, resulting in a loss of income available to common shareholders of $11,296,000 and $1,945,000 for 2013 and 2012, respectively. Basic and diluted loss per common share were $0.17 and $0.04 for the fiscal years 2013, and 2012, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Summary

 

Since our inception in 2008, we have generated significant losses from operations and we anticipate that we will continue to generate significant losses from operations for the foreseeable future. We have funded our operations primarily through the private placement of equity and debt securities. For the two year period ended December 31, 2013, we received $2,056,000 in net proceeds from the issuance of debt securities, $561,000 in net proceeds from the issuance of shares of our common stock, $1,317,000 in proceeds from purchase order financing from a related party and $500,000 from a 4 year term loan also from a related party. At December 31, 2013, the Company had approximately $47,000 in cash and incurred a loss from operations of approximately $11.2 million, of which approximately $6.9 million of the loss was due to non-cash charges.  The Company’s cash expenditures are projected to be approximately $135,000 a month on a continuing operating basis.  Included in these cash expenditures are approximately $13,000 a month in interest costs.  After taking into consideration our 2014 interim results to date and current projections for the remainder of 2014, management believes that the Company’s cash flow from operations, coupled with recent financings are not sufficient to support the working capital requirements, debt service, applicable debt maturity requirements, and operating expenses through December 31, 2014. 

 

During 2013, and in the first quarter of 2014, the Company only generated net revenue of approximately $200,000 from the establishment of the new distribution model (independent pharmacies), the compounding pharmacy business, and the rapid disintegrating technology products. This raises substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is highly dependent upon (i) management’s ability to equal or exceed its planned operating cash flows, (ii) maintain continued availability on its line of credit and (iii) the ability to obtain alternative financing to fund capital requirements and/or debt obligations coming due and operating expenses. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Although the Company has successfully obtained various funding and financing in the past, future financing and funding options may be challenging in the current environment.

 

We completed the development of a pediatric pain relief rapid orally disintegrating 80 mg and 160 mg tablets for OTC products. In the second quarter of 2014, we expect to sign a supply agreement (the terms of which have already been finalized) with a generic manufacturer for the production of these rapid orally disintegrating products for marketing, sale and distribution outside of the United States. In January 2014, the Company formed a joint venture entity, Global Pharma Hub, Inc., for the licensing, marketing and distribution of our pediatric RapiMed® acetaminophen outside of the United States. Our initial market is in China. On March 10, 2014, we received a $200,000 purchase order for our children’s pain relief rapid orally disintegrating 80mg tablets from Global Pharma Hub for the China market. However, we estimate that we will need approximately $1.5 million of incremental funding to launch RapiMed® products in the United States. The funding for launching the rapid orally disintegrating products in the U.S. is expected to come from the sale of equity securities, or debt financing.  However, such financing has not yet been secured.

 

At December 31, 2013, the Company had total current assets of approximately $1.5 million and total current liabilities of approximately $3.2 million resulting in negative working capital of approximately $1.7 million. The Company's current assets consisted of approximately $47,000 in cash, approximately $1,113,000 in receivables and approximately $330,000 in prepaid expenses. Current liabilities at December 31, 2013 consist of current portion of long term debt from related party of approximately $123,000, convertible notes payable of approximately $290,000, purchase order financing of approximately $1,037,000, accounts payable of approximately $232,000, line of credit payable of approximately $99,000, stock to be issued of approximately $274,000 and a derivative liability of approximately $1,133,000.

 

During the twelve month period ended December 31, 2013 we supplemented our liquidity needs primarily from financing activities. Our revenue did not cover our operational costs and our debt requirements. The Company raised approximately $2,549,000 in cash through the following: approximately $1,580,000 from proceeds of convertible notes, the sale of common stock which raised approximately $531,000, and borrowing of approximately $438,000 under our PO financing agreement with a related party. Approximately $551,000 of these funds were used for payments on convertible notes payable, payments on our purchase order financing, payments on note payable to a related party, and payments to the factor.

 

The following table summarizes our cash flows from operating investing and financing activities for the fiscal years ending December 31, 2013 and 2012:

 

    2013     2012     Change  
Total cash provided by (used in):                        
Operating activities     (1,804,000 )     (2,471,000 )     667,000  
Investing activities     (150,000 )     6,000       (156,000 )

After taking into consideration our interim results and current projections, management believes that the Company’s cash flow from operations, coupled with recent financings will not be sufficient to support the working capital requirements, debt service and applicable debt maturity requirements for the twelve month period ending December 31, 2014.  This raises substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is highly dependent upon (i) management’s ability to achieve its planned operating cash flows, (ii) maintain continued availability on its line of credit and (iii) the ability to obtain alternative financing to fund capital requirements and/or debt obligations coming due. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Although the Company has successfully obtained various funding and financing in the past, future financing and funding options may be challenging in the current environment and cannot be expected just based on past results.

 

Since our inception, ScripsAmerica’s business model has evolved significantly. Initially, the Company primarily provided pharmaceutical distribution services to a wide range of end users across the health care industry through the pharmaceutical distributors in North America. End users included retail, hospitals, long-term care facilities and government and home care agencies. The majority of our revenue from this model came from orders facilitated by McKesson, the largest pharmaceutical distributor in North America, and a few other clients. However, because we had no exclusive contract with McKesson to utilize our services and the margins began to shrink, we have moved away from providing these pharmaceutical distribution services as our main source of income and are now primarily focused on generating revenue through our RapiMed® products and our independent pharmacy distribution model.

 

ScripsAmerica has already commenced the sales and marketing of its RapiMed® pediatric acetaminophen product in China and, subject to securing financing, we hope to roll out this product in the United States during 2014. Our target market for this RapiMed® product is 2-11 year olds and we anticipate that the formula for our orally disintegrating tablets will be more effective than existing products due to its ability to melt faster, taste better and provide more accurate dosing.

 

ScripsAmerica presented RapiMed® to retail buyers in February of 2013 at the ECRM Cough and Cold show in Florida and we received very positive feedback. We have engaged DPG Inc. to roll out the product to retailers nationwide once we secure adequate funding. Depending on the retailer, the product will be promoted through in-store temporary price reductions, coupons, store circulars, buy-two-and save packs, as a clip-strip program, radio and print advertising.

 

We completed the development of these rapid disintegrating table products in the first quarter of 2012, with production and sales pending manufacturing and process qualification and marketing execution. However, we estimate that we will need approximately $1.5 million of incremental funding for expenses required to launch these RapiMed® products in the United States. The funding for launching the rapid melt products is to come from the sale of equity securities, preferred and/or common stock securities and debt financing.

 

In addition to RapiMed®, we are also implementing our plan to generate significant revenue by entering the Independent Pharmacy distribution market. This market will allow us to provide a much-needed solution to a problem experienced by small retail chains and individual pharmacies which is their inability to fill prescriptions for their clients when the Rx calls for controlled substances. The reason for this problem is that in order to secure these controlled substances the manufacturers of these products impose minimum order quantities that are far beyond the need of smaller operations.

 

ScripsAmerica entered into an oral agreement in August 2013 with a pharmaceutical distributor that represents over 700 such independent operations. and is a DEA and State-licensed to store and distribute controlled substances (which are drugs that have the potential for abuse or dependence and are regulated under the federal Controlled Substances Act) . WholesaleRx orders the goods from the manufacturers and has them shipped to its warehouse facility. WholesaleRx then ships the goods to the pharmacies in the bottles as received by the manufacturer. Upon receiving orders from the pharmacies, goods will be sent to them COD which will eliminate any accounts receivable issues. Prior to November 1, 2013, the Company and WholesaleRx had an oral agreement to pursuant to which the Company secured third party financing to fund WholesaleRx’s purchase orders and the Company in consideration of which the Company would receive 12.5% of the WholesaleRx’s “gross profit” for the prior month (which gross profit would consist of (i) sales to all customers minus (ii) cost of goods sold, freight in (to WholesaleRx), credits and allowances). Under the November 1 Agreement, ScripsAmerica agreed to provide purchase order financing to WholesaleRx and purchased a 20% equity stake in WholesaleRx. In consideration for providing financing for WholesaleRx’s purchaser orders, and to cover the Company’s costs in administering the purchase order financing, WholesaleRx has agreed to pay the Company on or before the 15 th calendar day of each month 20% of the gross profit (as described above) for the prior calendar month. If WholesaleRx is late in paying such 20% fee, then the amount owed will accrue interest at the rate of 18% per annum until paid.

 

On February 20, 2014, Implex Corporation and Main Avenue Pharmacy, Inc., the specialty pharmacy being acquired by Implex, entered into a Business Management Agreement with ScripsAmerica, effective as of February 7, 2014. Under this agreement, Implex has engaged the Company to manage the day to day business operations of Main Avenue Pharmacy, subject to the directives of Implex. The Company’s day to day management responsibilities includes financial management but excludes any matters related to licensing and those responsibilities which require Federal or state licensure (“Licensing Matters”). Prior to the final closing, the Licensing Matters will be handled by Main Avenue Pharmacy’s owner and after the final closing Implex will be responsible for managing Licensing Matters. The Company will also provide funding (as a loan or advance), to the extent not covered by the funds of the pharmacy, to pay all costs and expenses incurred in the operation of Main Avenue Pharmacy.

 

For the management services provided by the ScripsAmerica under this Business Management Agreement, Implex will pay us a combined monthly Management and Financing Fee. This combined fee will be equal to 97% of the Calculation Basis (receipts from paid invoices less Implex’s monthly draw and various expenses of Main Avenue Pharmacy). ). Since ScripsAmerica will have significant controlling interest via related party relationships and will be the primary beneficiary the company will consolidate financial activities of Main Avenue Pharmacy.

Operating Activities

 

Net cash used by operating activities was approximately $1.8 million for fiscal year 2013, as compared to cash used by operating activities of approximately $2.5 million for fiscal year 2012, which was a decrease in cash used by operations of approximately $692,000. The use of cash in 2013 and 2012 resulted primarily from our net loss adjusted for non-cash charges and changes in components of working capital. Our use of issuing common stock for services had a significant impact the Company reducing use of cash from operating activities in 2013 compared to 2012.

 

Investing Activities

 

In 2013 the Company made two investments:

 

1. We loaned $272,000 to Implex Corporation for Implex’s acquisition of the Membership Units in P.I.M.D. International, LLC (“ PIMD”), a start-up limited liability company based in, and proposing to do business in, Florida. Although founded approximately 4 years ago, PIMD has had no sales, but has the necessary licenses for operation of a drug wholesale operation. The purchase of the Membership Units in PIMD was subject to certain conditions precedent, of which the most important was that the Company obtain the necessary licenses from Florida (and the DEA) for the ownership of a drug distribution company like PIMD. Since this is considered a variable interest entity we have consolidated this receivable for our loan and PIMD’s loan payable is eliminated in our consolidated balance sheet.

 

2. In November and December 2013, we invested $150,000 for a 14% interest in WholesaleRx, Inc., which that represents over 700 independent pharmacy operations and is a DEA and State-licensed to store and distribute controlled substances (which are drugs that have the potential for abuse or dependence and are regulated under the federal Controlled Substances Act) . WholesaleRx orders the goods from the manufacturers and has them shipped to its warehouse facility. WholesaleRx then ships the goods to the pharmacies in the bottles as received by the manufacturer. Upon receiving orders from the pharmacies, goods will be sent to them COD which will eliminate any accounts receivable issues. Prior to November 1, 2013, the Company and WholesaleRx had an oral agreement to pursuant to which the Company secured third party financing to fund WholesaleRx’s purchase orders and the Company in consideration of which the Company would receive 12.5% of the WholesaleRx’s “gross profit” for the prior month (which gross profit would consist of (i) sales to all customers minus (ii) cost of goods sold, freight in (to WholesaleRx), credits and allowances). ScripsAmerica agreed to provide purchase order financing to WholesaleRx. In consideration for providing financing for WholesaleRx’s purchaser orders, and to cover the Company’s costs in administering the purchase order financing.

 

Recent Investing Events

 

On January 29, 2014, Implex Corporation, which is owned by our legal counsel, Richard C. Fox, entered into a stock purchase agreement with Dmitriy Naydenko to acquire the specialty pharmacy Main Avenue Pharmacy, Inc., located in New Jersey, for $550,000. The purchase price will be paid in installments and the shares will be held by an escrow agent until the final payment is made. Under the purchase agreement, the final agreement is to be made on July 11, 2014 (unless extended by the parties). For the management services provided by the ScripsAmerica under this Business Management Agreement, Implex will pay us a combined monthly Management and Financing Fee. This combined fee will be equal to 97% of the Calculation Basis (receipts from paid invoices less Implex’s monthly draw and various expenses of Main Avenue Pharmacy). Since ScripsAmeica will have controlling interest in Implex, we plan to consolidate activities of Main Ave into our financial statements in first quarter 2014.

Equity investments

 

WholesaleRx

 

As of December 31, 2013, the Company has a 14% non-controlling ownership interest in WholesaleRx, Inc., which represents over 700 such independent pharmacy operations and is a DEA and State-licensed to store and distribute controlled substances (which are drugs that have the potential for abuse or dependence and are regulated under the federal Controlled Substances Act) . WholesaleRx orders the goods from the manufacturers and has them shipped to its warehouse facility. WholesaleRx then ships the goods to the pharmacies in the bottles as received by the manufacturer. Upon receiving orders from the pharmacies, goods will be sent to them COD which will eliminate any accounts receivable issues. Prior to November 1, 2013, the Company and WholesaleRx had an oral agreement to pursuant to which the Company secured third party financing to fund WholesaleRx’s purchase orders and the Company in consideration of which the Company would receive 12.5% of the WholesaleRx’s “gross profit” for the prior month (which gross profit would consist of (i) sales to all customers minus (ii) cost of goods sold, freight in (to WholesaleRx), credits and allowances). Under the November 1 Agreement, ScripsAmerica agreed to provide purchase order financing to WholesaleRx and purchased a 20% equity stake in WholesaleRx. In consideration for providing financing for WholesaleRx’s purchaser orders, and to cover the Company’s costs in administering the purchase order financing, WholesaleRx has agreed to pay the Company on or before the 15 th calendar day of each month 20% of the gross profit (as described above) for the prior calendar month.

Variable Interest Entities (VIE)

 

P.I.M.D International, LLC

 

The Company is the primary beneficiary of P.I.M.D. International, LLC (“ PIMD”), a start-up limited liability company based in, and proposing to do business in, Florida. Our determination PIMD investment is a variable interest entity (VIE) was based on the facts ScripsAmerica receives a majority of its expected profits and losses. We also will provide be the primary financing for inventory purchases through related parties. Our loan receivable of $272,000 and PIMD’s loan payable was eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses of PIMD have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The 10% outside ownership is shown as non-controlling interest. At November 1, 2013, PIMD’s beginning capital was $41,000 and they had accumulated deficit of $49,607. During December 2013 the un-controlling interest made a distributed $104,930 making the total equity attributed to non-controlling interest to be a deficit of $10,622.

 

Details of the loan agreement are as follows: In December, 2013, the Company revised an September 2013 purchase agreement to acquire 90% of the Membership Units in P.I.M.D. International, LLC (“ PIMD”), a start-up limited liability company based in, and proposing to do business in, Florida. Although founded approximately 4 years ago, PIMD has had no sales, but has the necessary licenses for operation of a drug wholesale operation. The purchase of the Membership Units in PIMD was subject to certain conditions precedent, of which the most important was that the Company obtain the necessary licenses from Florida (and the DEA) for the ownership of a drug distribution company like PIMD. However, it was determined that securing the licenses was going to require a substantially longer period of time than the parties had anticipated. Consequently, in order to preserve the business opportunity, it was necessary to change the structure of the relationship. Accordingly, the original purchase agreement was cancelled and voided. The funds already advanced by ScripsAmerica to PIMD were converted to a loan and the relationship between PIMD and ScripsAmerica became a Sourcing and Marketing Agreement. Implex Corporation, owned by the Company’s legal counsel, who is a Florida resident, has stepped in to assist with any licensing issues. The Company believes that if licensing is required it will be that of Implex, based in Florida and with a Florida owner.

 

Under this Sourcing and Marketing Agreement, which the Company entered into with PIMD in December 2013, the Company will assist PIMD by helping PIMD to (1) secure advantageous sources of drugs and (2) secure marketing and sales assistance in selling the drugs. For these services, the Company will receive a “Sourcing and Marketing Fee” which is 45% of the “Calculated Basis” to be calculated under a formula in the Sourcing and Marketing Agreement.

 

The funds already advanced by ScripsAmerica to PIMD were converted to a loan to Implex, a related party, borrowed $272,000 from ScripsAmerica at an interest rate of 2% and it has re-loaned the funds to PIMD at an interest rate of 5%. Implex will keep the 3% differential. The Company’s loan to Implex and Implex’s loan to PIMD are both for a 5-year period. Implex will be entering into a “Business Development and Retention Agreement” with PIMD to assist PIMD with the development of its business.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and estimates

 

Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its subsidiary in which a controlling interest is maintained. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in entities in which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest, but over which we have significant influence are accounted for using the equity method. Investments in which we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for using the cost method. For those consolidated subsidiaries where Company ownership is less than 100%, the outside stockholders’ interests are shown as non-controlling interest. Our equity investment is classified in Investments on the balance sheet.

 

37
 

 

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition Product revenue associated with our pharmaceutical distribution services is recognized when product is shipped from a contract packager to our customers’ warehouses, and is adjusted for anticipated charge backs from our customers which include inventory credits, discounts or volume incentives. These charge back costs are received monthly from our customers’ and the sales revenue and accounts receivables are reduced accordingly based on historical experience, customer contract programs, product pricing trends and the mix of products shipped.

 

Purchase orders from our customers generate our shipments, provide persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists and that the pricing is determinable. The credit worthiness of our customers assures that collectability is reasonably assured.

 

We also recognize revenue from our contract packager on a net basis according to ASC 605-45, Revenue Recognition: Principal Agent Considerations. Since we are not deemed to be the principal in these sales transactions we do not report the transaction on a gross basis in our statement of operations. These sales transactions relate to a contract that a Contract Packager has obtained with a government agency. The revenue is reported in a separate line in the statement of operations as “Product revenues net from Contract Packager”, and the gross sales are reduced by the cost of sales fees from our Contract Packager.

 

Commission fees are recognized when earned on shipments of generic pharmaceutical and OTC products by our pharmaceutical partner, which is a DEA and State-licensed to store and distribute controlled substances. Per our agreement with our pharmaceutical partner, the Company will earn a 20% commission on the gross profit (sales less cost of goods sold, freight in and credits and allowances) of products shipped to independent pharmacies on or after November 1, 2013 and 12.5% commission on gross profit of products shipped to independent pharmacies prior to November 1, 2013.

 

Research and Development - Expenditures for research and development (“R & D”) associated with contract research and development provided by third parties are expensed, as incurred. The Company had charges of $0 and $37,524 for research and development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Accounts Receivable Trade, net -   Accounts receivable are stated at estimated net realizable value net of the sales allowance due to charge backs. The Chargeback reserve at December 31, 2013 was zero because we did not have any receivable associated with McKesson and we no longer sell product to McKesson. Management provides for uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to an allowance for bad debts based on its assessment of the current status of individual accounts and historical collection information. Balances that are deemed uncollectible after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the allowance and a credit to accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012 no allowance for doubtful accounts was deemed necessary.

 

The Company entered into an accounts receivable factoring facility agreement in June 2012. As of December 31, 2012, gross receivables were $395,974 of which $141,725 was sold to a factor, and has been included in the liabilities section in the balance sheet. Gross accounts receivable was reduced $105,443 to provide for an allowance for charge backs, for a net accounts receivable balance of $290,531.

 

R eceivable – Contract Packager - The Company has receivables from Marlex Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Contract Packager), in the amount of $1,088,598 and $1,579,051 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, this receivable consists of PO financing, revenue earned for U.S. government sales and monthly payments due under the settlement agreement entered into on September 6, 2013 (see Note 10). The 2012 receivable consists of the following: a) receivables relating to sales with a government agency in the amount of $772,809, b) the Company’s payment of $600,000 to a vendor for the product to be manufactured on behalf of our Contract Packager, and c) the Company’s advance of $206,241 to our Contract Packager for the purchase of product inventory. In the second quarter of 2013, the Company fully reserved and expensed $1,210,999 which was the remaining balance. Per the September 6, 2013 settlement agreement, the company is entitle to recover $408,150 consequently the unrecoverable amount have been eliminated and since collectable is still not certain the remaining receivable is fully reserved as of December 31, 2013.

 

Receivable – related party   WholesaleRx in which we have a 14% investment where we recognized Commission fees when earned on shipments of generic pharmaceutical and OTC products by our pharmaceutical partner, which is a DEA and State-licensed to store and distribute controlled substances. The receivable consists of PO financing, and revenue earned for commission sales agreement entered into in November 1, 2013. No reserve for un-collectability due to short history and no prior bad debts.

 

Income Taxes -   The Company provides for income taxes using the asset and liability based approach for reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement and the tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. The Company had a full valuation allowance of $2,015,200 and $597,591 against deferred tax assets at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

38
 

 

The Company also complies with the provisions of Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes . The accounting regulation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for recording in the financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company classifies any assessment for interest and/or penalties as other expenses in the financial statements, if applicable. There were no uncertain tax positions at December 31, 2013 and 2012.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments - Derivative financial instruments consist of financial instruments or other contracts that contain a notional amount and one or more underlying values (e.g. interest rate, security price or other variable) that require no initial net investment and permit net settlement. Derivative financial instruments may be free-standing or embedded in other financial instruments. Further, derivative financial instruments are, initially, and subsequently, measured at fair value and recorded as liabilities or, in rare instances, assets. The Company generally does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow, market or foreign-currency risks. However, the Company has entered into various types of financing arrangements to fund its business capital requirements, including convertible debt and other financial instruments. These contracts require evaluation to determine whether derivative features embedded in host contracts require bifurcation and fair value measurement or, in the case of freestanding derivatives (principally warrants) whether certain conditions for equity classification have been achieved. In instances where derivative financial instruments require liability classification, the Company is required to initially and subsequently measure such instruments at fair value. Accordingly, the Company adjusts the fair value of these derivative components at each reporting period through a charge to income until such time as the instruments acquire classification in stockholders’ deficit.

 

Derivative financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently adjusted to fair value at the close of each reporting period. The Company estimates fair values of derivative financial instruments using various techniques (and combinations thereof) that are considered to be consistent with the objective measuring fair values. In selecting the appropriate technique, management considers, among other factors, the nature of the instrument, the market risks that it embodies and the expected means of settlement. For less complex derivative instruments, such as free-standing warrants, the Company generally uses the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation technique because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including trading volatility, dividend yield, estimated terms and risk free rates) necessary to fair value these instruments. Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in the trading market price of our common stock, which has a high-historical volatility. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, our income (loss) will reflect the volatility in these estimate and assumption changes.

 

Fair Value Measurements -   The Company follows the provision of ASC No. 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 clarifies that fair value is an estimate of the exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants (i.e., the exit price at the measurement date) and provides for use of a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels:

 

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2: Input other than quoted market prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly, and reasonably available. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company.

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflect the assumptions that the Company develops based on available information about what market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability.

 

An asset or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Availability of observable inputs can vary and is affected by a variety of factors.

 

The Company uses judgment in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities, and level 3 assets and liabilities involve greater judgment than level 1 and level 2 assets and liabilities.

 

The carrying values of accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable and accrued expenses, royalty payable, obligation due factor, and notes payable approximate their fair values due to their short-term maturities. The carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt approximates fair value due to the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms. See note 13 for fair value of derivative liabilities.

 

Stock-Based Compensation – Compensation expense is recognized for the fair value of all share-based payments issued to employees. As of December 31, 2013, the Company has issued 2,015,000 employee stock options that would require calculating the fair value using a pricing model such as the Black-Scholes pricing model, see note 15 for fair value. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had not issued any employee stock options that would require calculating the fair value using a pricing model such as the Black-Scholes pricing model.

 

39
 

 

For non-employees, stock grants issued for services are valued at either the invoiced or contracted value of services provided, or the fair value of stock at the date the agreement is reached, whichever is more readily determinable. For stock options and warrants granted to non-employees the fair value at the grant date is used to value the expense. In calculating the estimated fair value of its stock options and warrants, the Company used a Black-Scholes pricing model which requires the consideration of the following seven variables for purposes of estimating fair value:

 

· the stock option or warrant exercise price,
· the expected term of the option or warrant,
· the grant date fair value of our common stock, which is issuable upon exercise of the option or warrant,
· the expected volatility of our common stock,
· expected dividends on our common stock (we do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future),
· the risk free interest rate for the expected option or warrant term, and
· the expected forfeiture rate.

 

Earnings Per Share - Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share include additional dilution from common stock equivalents, such as stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock warrants, options, convertible notes payable and Series A convertible preferred shares. Common stock equivalents are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share when the Company reports a loss because to do so would be anti-dilutive. For details on number of common stock equivalents see Note 18 below.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

 

To the Board of Directors and

Stockholders of ScripsAmerica, Inc.

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of ScripsAmerica, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2013, and the related consolidated statement of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year then ended. We have also audited the accompanying balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2012, and the related statement of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the year then ended. ScripsAmerica, Inc.’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the 2013 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ScripsAmerica, Inc. as of December 31, 2013, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the 2012 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ScripsAmerica, Inc. as of December 31, 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred an operating loss and net loss of $7.3 million and $11.2 million, respectively during the year ended December 31, 2013, a working capital deficit of $1.7 million and has negative cash flows from operations of $1.8 million. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regards to these matters are discussed in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. If the Company is unable to successfully refinance and raise additional capital to fund ongoing operations there would be a material adverse effect to the consolidated financial statements.

SCRIPSAMERICA, INC.  
Notes to Consolidated Financial statements December 31, 2013 and 2012

 

1 - Organization and Business

 

The accompanying financial statements reflect financial information of ScripsAmerica, Inc., (the “Company” or “ScripsAmerica” or “we” or “our”).

 

ScripsAmerica, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Delaware on May 12, 2008. Since our inception, ScripsAmerica’s business model has evolved significantly. Through March 2013, and to a lesser extent into early 2014, the Company primarily provided pharmaceutical distribution services to a wide range of end users across the health care industry through major pharmaceutical distributors in North America, such as McKesson Corporation and Cardinal Health . The end users include retail, hospitals, long-term care facilities and government and home care agencies. The majority of the Company’s revenue from this model came from orders facilitated by McKesson, the largest pharmaceutical distributor in North America, and a few other clients.

 

However, we had no exclusive contract with McKesson and the Company’s other pharmaceutical distributors to utilize our services and our margins became compressed. As a result, in 2013 the business of providing these pharmaceutical distribution services became curtailed and we are now primarily focused on generating revenue through (1) the marketing, sale and distribution of our RapiMed® products, (2) our services to the independent pharmacy distribution business and (3) our entry into the compounding pharmacy business. Specifically, we have developed a branded OTC product called “RapiMed” (www.rapimeds.com), which is a children’s pain reliever and fever reducer currently launched in China though our joint venture entity Global Pharma Hub, and which we hope to launch in retail outlets in North America sometime in 2014. We have also entered into agreements with third parties pursuant to which we receive fees based on a formula tied to the gross profit on sales of pharmaceutical products to independent pharmacies by such third parties. Lastly, on February 20, 2014 we entered into an agreement with a New Jersey compounding pharmacy that specializes in topical pain creams, pursuant to which we manage their business operations in exchange for a percentage of the pharmacy’s total revenue.

 

2 - Liquidity, Business Risk and Going Concern

 

At December 31, 2013, the Company had approximately $47,000 in cash and incurred a loss from operations of approximately $7.3 million, of which approximately $5.1 million of the loss was due to non-cash charges and also had an accumulated deficit of $13.6 million. Further business with our largest customer in 2012 was stopped during 2013 which reduced our revenue by $3.3 million from 2012. After taking into consideration our 2014 interim results to date and current projections for the remainder of 2014, management believes that the Company’s cash flow from operations, coupled with recent financings are not sufficient to support the working capital requirements, debt service, applicable debt maturity requirements, and operating expenses through December 31, 2014. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is highly dependent upon (i) management’s ability to re-establish its business model and equal or exceed its planned operating cash flows (ii), maintain continued availability on its line of credit and the ability to obtain additional financing or capital to fund its debt service obligations coming due and operating expenses.

 

These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Although the Company has successfully obtained various funding and financing in the past, future financing and funding options may be challenging in the current environment and cannot be expected based on past results.

 

We completed the development of a children’s pain relief rapid orally disintegrating 80 mg and 160 mg tablets for OTC products. In the second quarter of 2013, we signed a supply agreement with a generic manufacturer for the production of these rapid orally disintegrating products. In January 2014, the Company formed a joint venture entity, Global Pharma Hub, Inc., for the licensing, marketing and distribution of our pediatric RapiMed® acetaminophen in China. On March 10, 2014, we received a $200,000 purchase order for our children’s pain relief rapid orally disintegrating 80mg tablets from Global Pharma Hub for the China market. However, we estimate that we will need approximately $1.5 million of incremental funding to launch RapiMed® products in the United States. The funding for launching the rapid orally disintegrating products in the U.S. is expected to come from the sale of equity securities, or debt financing.  However, such financing has not yet been secured.

 

3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

A summary of significant accounting policies follows:

 

a. Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its subsidiary in which a controlling interest is maintained. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in entities in which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest, but over which we have significant influence are accounted for using the equity method. Investments in which we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted for using the cost method. For those consolidated subsidiaries where Company ownership is less than 100%, the outside stockholders’ interests are shown as non-controlling interest. Our equity investment is classified in Investments on the balance sheet.

 

F- 6
 

 

SCRIPSAMERICA, INC.  
Notes to Consolidated Financial statements December 31, 2013 and 2013

 

 

b. Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

c. Revenue Recognition Product revenue associated with our pharmaceutical distribution services is recognized when product is shipped from a contract packager to our customers’ warehouses, and is adjusted for anticipated charge backs from our customers which include inventory credits, discounts or volume incentives. These charge back costs are received monthly from our customers’ and the sales revenue and accounts receivables are reduced accordingly based on historical experience, customer contract programs, product pricing trends and the mix of products shipped.

 

Purchase orders from our customers generate our shipments, provide persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists and that the pricing is determinable. The credit worthiness of our customers assures that collectability is reasonably assured.

 

We also recognize revenue from our contract packager on a net basis according to ASC 605-45, Revenue Recognition: Principal Agent Considerations. Since we are not deemed to be the principal in these sales transactions we do not report the transaction on a gross basis in our statement of operations. These sales transactions relate to a contract that a Contract Packager has obtained with a government agency. The revenue is reported in a separate line in the statement of operations as “Product revenues net from Contract Packager”, and the gross sales are reduced by the cost of sales fees from our Contract Packager.

 

Commission fees are recognized when earned on shipments of generic pharmaceutical and OTC products by our pharmaceutical partner, which is a DEA and State-licensed to store and distribute controlled substances. Per our agreement with our pharmaceutical partner, the Company will earn a 20% commission on the gross profit (sales less cost of goods sold, freight in and credits and allowances) of products shipped to independent pharmacies on or after November 1, 2013 and 12.5% commission on gross profit of products shipped to independent pharmacies prior to November 1, 2013.

 

d. Research and Development - Expenditures for research and development (“R & D”) associated with contract research and development provided by third parties are expensed, as incurred. The Company had charges of $0 and $37,524 for research and development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

e. Accounts Receivable Trade, net -   Accounts receivable are stated at estimated net realizable value net of the sales allowance due to charge backs. The Chargeback reserve at December 31, 2013 was zero because we did not have any receivable associated with McKesson and we no longer sell product to McKesson. Management provides for uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to an allowance for bad debts based on its assessment of the current status of individual accounts and historical collection information. Balances that are deemed uncollectible after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the allowance and a credit to accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012 no allowance for doubtful accounts was deemed necessary.

 

The Company entered into an accounts receivable factoring facility agreement in June 2012. As of December 31, 2012, gross receivables were $395,974 of which $141,725 was sold to a factor, and has been included in the liabilities section in the balance sheet. Gross accounts receivable was reduced $105,443 to provide for an allowance for charge backs, for a net accounts receivable balance of $290,531.

 

f. Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The Company computes depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Maintenance costs, which do not significantly extend the useful lives of the respective assets and repair costs are charged to operating expense as incurred. In December 2013, it was discovered that a potential supplier of product who physically had the equipment which we had purchased in 2012, had gone bankrupt. It was determined that the equipment was unrecoverable and, consequently, we wrote-off the assets and expensed $69,650 to the statement of operations.

Notes to Consolidated Financial statements December 31, 2013 and 2012

 

g. R eceivable – Contract Packager - The Company has receivables from Marlex Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Contract Packager), in the amount of $1,088,598 and $1,579,051 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, this receivable consists of PO financing, revenue earned for U.S. government sales and monthly payments due under the settlement agreement entered into on September 6, 2013 (see Note 10). The 2012 receivable consists of the following: a) receivables relating to sales with a government agency in the amount of $772,809, b) the Company’s payment of $600,000 to a vendor for the product to be manufactured on behalf of our Contract Packager, and c) the Company’s advance of $206,241 to our Contract Packager for the purchase of product inventory. In the second quarter of 2013, the Company fully reserved and expensed $1,210,999 which was the remaining balance. Per the September 6, 2013 settlement agreement, the Company is entitled to recover $408,150 of which $81,632 has been recovered during 2013. Consequently the reserved amount has been offset against the allotment and since collectability is still not certain on the remaining receivable, we have fully reserved it as of December 31, 2013.

 

h. Receivable – related party   WholesaleRx in which we have a 14% investment where we recognized Commission fees when earned on shipments of generic pharmaceutical and OTC products by our pharmaceutical partner, which is a DEA and State-licensed to store and distribute controlled substances. The receivable consists of PO financing, and revenue earned for commission sales agreement entered into in November 1, 2013. No reserve for un-collectability due to short history and no prior bad debts.

 

i. Customer, Product, and Supplier Concentrations -   For the first four months of 2013 and the entire 2012 fiscal year we sold our products directly to a wholesale drug distributor who, in turn, supplies products to pharmacies, hospitals, governmental agencies, and physicians. The Company used one Contract Packager exclusively for all of its warehouse, customer service, distribution, and labeling services for the first four months of 2013 and entire 2012 fiscal year. In September 2013, the Company added a second supplier of products.

 

In 2013, we entered into an agreement with a company that represents over 700 pharmacy independent operations. Under this agreement, this partner company will order the goods from the manufacturers and have them shipped to our pharmaceutical partner, which is DEA and State-licensed to store and distribute controlled substances. The goods will be shipped to the pharmacies in the bottles as received by the manufacturer.

 

j. Concentration in Cash - . We maintain cash at financial institutions and, at times, balances may exceed federally insured limits. We have never experienced any losses related to these balances. All of our non-interest bearing cash balances were fully insured at December 31, 2013 and 2012.

 

k. Income Taxes -   The Company provides for income taxes using the asset and liability based approach for reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement and the tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. The Company had a full valuation allowance of $2,015,200 and $597,591 against deferred tax assets at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

The Company also complies with the provisions of Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes . The accounting regulation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for recording in the financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company classifies any assessment for interest and/or penalties as other expenses in the financial statements, if applicable. There were no uncertain tax positions at December 31, 2013 and 2012.

 

l. Derivative Financial Instruments - Derivative financial instruments consist of financial instruments or other contracts that contain a notional amount and one or more underlying values (e.g. interest rate, security price or other variable) that require no initial net investment and permit net settlement. Derivative financial instruments may be free-standing or embedded in other financial instruments. Further, derivative financial instruments are, initially, and subsequently, measured at fair value and recorded as liabilities or, in rare instances, assets. The Company generally does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow, market or foreign-currency risks. However, the Company has entered into various types of financing arrangements to fund its business capital requirements, including convertible debt and other financial instruments. These contracts require evaluation to determine whether derivative features embedded in host contracts require bifurcation and fair value measurement or, in the case of freestanding derivatives (principally warrants) whether certain conditions for equity classification have been achieved. In instances where derivative financial instruments require liability classification, the Company is required to initially and subsequently measure such instruments at fair value. Accordingly, the Company adjusts the fair value of these derivative components at each reporting period through a charge to income until such time as the instruments acquire classification in stockholders’ deficit.  

 

F- 8
 

 

SCRIPSAMERICA, INC.  
Notes to Consolidated Financial statements December 31, 2013 and 2012

 

Derivative financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently adjusted to fair value at the close of each reporting period. The Company estimates fair values of derivative financial instruments using various techniques (and combinations thereof) that are considered to be consistent with the objective measuring fair values. In selecting the appropriate technique, management considers, among other factors, the nature of the instrument, the market risks that it embodies and the expected means of settlement. For less complex derivative instruments, such as free-standing warrants, the Company generally uses the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation technique because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including trading volatility, dividend yield, estimated terms and risk free rates) necessary to fair value these instruments. Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in the trading market price of our common stock, which has a high-historical volatility. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, our income (loss) will reflect the volatility in these estimate and assumption changes.

 

m. Fair Value Measurements -   The Company follows the provision of ASC No. 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 clarifies that fair value is an estimate of the exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants (i.e., the exit price at the measurement date) and provides for use of a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels:

 

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2: Input other than quoted market prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly, and reasonably available. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company.

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflect the assumptions that the Company develops based on available information about what market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability.

 

An asset or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Availability of observable inputs can vary and is affected by a variety of factors.

 

The Company uses judgment in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities, and level 3 assets and liabilities involve greater judgment than level 1 and level 2 assets and liabilities.

 

The carrying values of accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable and accrued expenses, royalty payable, obligation due factor, and notes payable approximate their fair values due to their short-term maturities. The carrying value of the Company’s investments approximate fair value because the investments were made in 2013 and the carrying value includes the Company’s share of the investee’s earnings from the date of acquisition. (See Note 8.) The carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt approximates fair value due to the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms. See note 13 for fair value of derivative liabilities.

 

n. Advertising Expenses -   The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. The Company incurred advertising expenses in the amount of $371,786 and $62,875 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

o. Shipping and Handling Cost – The Company expenses all shipping and handling costs as incurred. These costs are included in cost of sales on the accompanying financial statements.

 

p. Stock-Based Compensation – Compensation expense is recognized for the fair value of all share-based payments issued to employees. As of December 31, 2013, the Company has issued 1,320,000 employee stock options that would require calculating the fair value using a pricing model such as the Black-Scholes pricing model, see note 15 for fair value. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had not issued any employee stock options that would require calculating the fair value using a pricing model such as the Black-Scholes pricing model.

 

For non-employees, stock grants issued for services are valued at either the invoiced or contracted value of services provided, or the fair value of stock at the date the agreement is reached, whichever is more readily determinable. For stock options and warrants granted to non-employees the fair value at the grant date is used to value the expense. In calculating the estimated fair value of its stock options and warrants, the Company used a Black-Scholes pricing model which requires the consideration of the following seven variables for purposes of estimating fair value:

 

· the stock option or warrant exercise price,
· the expected term of the option or warrant,
· the grant date fair value of our common stock, which is issuable upon exercise of the option or warrant,
· the expected volatility of our common stock,

 

F- 9
 

 

SCRIPSAMERICA, INC.  
Notes to Consolidated Financial statements December 31, 2013 and 2012

 

· expected dividends on our common stock (we do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future),
· the risk free interest rate for the expected option or warrant term, and
· the expected forfeiture rate.

 

q. Cost of Goods Sold   In fiscal year 2012 and for the first half of fiscal year 2013, the Company purchases all of its products from one supplier, Marlex Pharmaceuticals Inc., a related party at various contracted prices. Raw materials were re-packaged by Marlex. Upon shipment of product, the Company is charged the contracted price for services provided to ship the product. Cost of goods consists of raw material costs, re-packaging costs and shipping and handling.  The Company financed the purchase of inventory based on confirmed purchase orders via a revolving finance agreement, provided by a related party (see notes 6 and 10 below). Beginning is August 2013 we added a second source for supplying our pharmaceutical product needs. These purchases are also financed based on confirmed purchase orders via a revolving finance agreement, provided by a related party.

 

r. Earnings Per Share - Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share include additional dilution from common stock equivalents, such as stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock warrants, options, convertible notes payable and Series A convertible preferred shares. Common stock equivalents are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share when the Company reports a loss because to do so would be anti-dilutive. For details on number of common stock equivalents see Note 18 below.

 

s. Reclassification - Certain amounts in the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012 have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the presentation in the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013.

 

t. New Accounting Pronouncements –

 

On July 18, 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2013-11, “ Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists ” (“ASU 2013-11”). ASU 2013-11 states that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward, except as follows. The unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets to the extent (i) a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position, or (ii) the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax assets for such purpose. The amendments in ASU 20103-11 are effective prospectively for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of ASU 2013-11 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, “ Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities ,” and in January 2013 issued ASU No. 2013-01, “ Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures About Offsetting Assets and Liabilities .” These standards create new disclosure requirements regarding the nature of an entity’s rights of setoff and related arrangements associated with its derivative instruments, repurchase agreements, and securities lending transactions. Certain disclosures of the amounts of certain instruments subject to enforceable master netting arrangements would be required, irrespective of whether the entity has elected to offset those instruments in the statement of financial positions. ASU 2011-11 and ASU 2013-01 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The adoption of ASU 2011-11 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

 

Management does not believe there would have been a material effect on the accompanying financial statements had any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards been adopted in the current period.

 

4 - Accounts Receivable Trade, Net

 

The Company may at certain times during the year sell qualified receivables to a factor (United Capital Funding). This agreement allows the Company to sell its qualified accounts receivable with recourse in exchange for advances of funds equivalent to 83% of the value of receivables, leaving 17% of the receivables as a reserve by the factor for potential non-payment of the Company’s receivables. The factoring facility is for a term of one year, which was renewed in May 2013 and is cancellable by either party upon one month’s written notice, which provides a factoring line of up to $1,000,000. As collateral for the repayment of advances for receivables sold, the factor has a priority security interest in all present and future assets and rights of the Company. The factor has required that the Company notify all customers that all payments must be made to a lock-box controlled by the factor. The factoring fee is 2.2% every thirty days or 26.4% annually. Factoring fees charged to interest expense for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, were $5,069 and $48,948 respectively.

5 - Revenues Net, From Contract Packager and Commission Fees

 

In September 2012, the Company announced that our Contract Packager, secured an 8-year, $79 million pharmaceutical distribution contract with the U.S. government . On September 30, 2012, our Contract Packager began shipping its first order on this distribution contract with the U.S. government .

 

The Company had a Joint Operating Agreement with the Contract Packager which was superseded by an agreement entered into on September 6, 2013 (see Note 10). Under this September 6 th agreement, the Company is entitled to receive a percentage of the Contract Packager’s profit, as defined, net of financing charges and royalties. Since we are not deemed to be the principal in these sales transactions we do not report these sales transactions on a gross basis in our condensed statements of operations. The revenue is reported separately in the condensed statements of operations as revenues net, from Contract Packager. The gross sales and cost of sales from this U.S. government contacts were:

 

    December 31,  
    2013     2012  
             
Sales from U.S. government contract   $ 6,433,644     $ 1,173,207  
Cost on U.S. government, per agreement     6,100,006       1,020,690  
Revenues net, from contract packager   $ 333,638     $ 152,517  

 

In August 2013, we entered into an agreement with a pharmaceutical partner which began shipping generic pharmaceutical and OTC products to independent pharmacies. Under the master agreement with our pharmaceutical partner, we received a commission of 12.5% on gross margins of pharmaceutical products shipped prior to November 1, 2013 and 20% on the gross margin of pharmaceutical products shipped after November 1, 2013. During 2013, this commission structure generated commission revenue of $69,902.

 

6 - Receivable and Other Assets-Contract Packager

 

Beginning in fiscal year 2011, the Company loaned money to the Contract Packager in an unsecured, non-interest bearing loan which has no stipulated repayment terms as the loan was made pursuant to an oral agreement. The outstanding balance at December 31, 2013, and 2012 was $717,503 and $743,503 respectively. On September 14, 2012 the Company entered into a letter of intent agreement to purchase the Contract Packager. Upon closing of the purchase of the Contract Packager, the loan receivable would be eliminated. Management had determined that the outstanding balance should be fully reserved as of December 31, 2012 and was written off in the quarter ending September 30, 2013.

 

As of December 31, 2013, the outstanding receivable balance is $1,088,598 which consists of a receivable for PO financing, revenue earned on U.S. government sales and monthly payments.

 

The Company also had a $200,000 deposit in other assets as of December 31, 2012 which it considered a stand still fee and was to be applied towards future royalty payments. In March of 2013, the Company recorded a reserved against this deposit since there was uncertainty concerning the royalty agreement with its Contract Packager, as this amount may never be applied to future royalty payments or otherwise recovered (see Note 17). This deposit was written off in the quarter ending September 30, 2013 (see Note 8).

8 - Equity Investments

 

WholesaleRx

 

As of December 31, 2013, the Company has a 14% non-controlling ownership interest in WholesaleRx, Inc., which represents over 700 such independent pharmacy operations and is a DEA and State-licensed to store and distribute controlled substances (which are drugs that have the potential for abuse or dependence and are regulated under the federal Controlled Substances Act) . WholesaleRx orders the goods from the manufacturers and has them shipped to its warehouse facility. WholesaleRx then ships the goods to the pharmacies in the bottles as received by the manufacturer. Upon receiving orders from the pharmacies, goods will be sent to them COD which will eliminate any accounts receivable issues. Prior to November 1, 2013, the Company and WholesaleRx had an oral agreement to pursuant to which the Company secured third party financing to fund WholesaleRx’s purchase orders and the Company in consideration of which the Company would receive 12.5% of the WholesaleRx’s “gross profit” for the prior month (which gross profit would consist of (i) sales to all customers minus (ii) cost of goods sold, freight in (to WholesaleRx), credits and allowances). Under the November 1 Agreement, ScripsAmerica agreed to provide purchase order financing to WholesaleRx and purchased a 20% equity stake in WholesaleRx. In consideration for providing financing for WholesaleRx’s purchaser orders, and to cover the Company’s costs in administering the purchase order financing, WholesaleRx has agreed to pay the Company on or before the 15 th calendar day of each month 20% of the gross profit (as described above) for the prior calendar month. If WholesaleRx is late in paying such 20% fee, then the amount owed will accrue interest at the rate of 18% per annum until paid.

 

Per the November 1, 2013 agreement with WholesaleRx the Company agreed to make an equity investment of $400,000 for 12,000 shares, which will represent 20% ownership interest in WholesaleRx. The subscription amount is to be paid in three installments ($150,000 upon execution of the agreement, $125,000 on December 31, 2013 (and was paid in January 2014) and $125,000 on February 15, 2014, which has not been made as of April 10, 2014).

 

This investment is accounted for under the equity method because the Company exercises significant influence but does not exercise control. Our initial investment of $275,000 was increased for the equity earnings of our 14% interest in WholesaleRx to $276,956. WholesaleRx’s unaudited financial information as of December 31, 2013 is as follows: (i) Current assets are approximately $137,000 of which inventory was valued at $72,000; (ii) Total assets were approximately $160,000; (iii) Total liabilities were approximately $19,000; and (iv) Stockholders’ equity was approximately $141,000.

 

P.I.M.D International, LLC

 

The Company is the primary beneficiary of P.I.M.D. International, LLC (“ PIMD”), a start-up limited liability company based in, and proposing to do business in, Florida and Variable Interest Entity (VIE. Our determination PIMD investment is a variable interest entity (VIE) was based on the fact PIMD’s equity at risk is insufficient to finance its activities. The Company would be considered the primary beneficiary of the VIE as it has both of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (b) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could potentially be significant or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant. ScripsAmerica receives a majority of its expected profits and losses. We also will provide be the primary financing for inventory purchases through related parties. Our loan receivable of $272,000 with Implex Corporation and PIMD’s loan payable was eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses of PIMD have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. At November 1, 2013, PIMD’s beginning capital was $41,000 and they had accumulated deficit of $49,607. During December 2013 the non-controlling interest made a distribution of $119,650, making the total equity attributed to non-controlling interest to be a deficit of $146,566.

 

Details of the loan agreement are as follows: In December, 2013, the Company revised an October 2013 purchase agreement to acquire 90% of the Membership Units in P.I.M.D. International, LLC (“ PIMD”), a start-up limited liability company based in, and proposing to do business in, Florida. Although founded approximately 4 years ago, PIMD has had no sales, but has the necessary licenses for operation of a drug wholesale operation. The purchase of the Membership Units in PIMD was subject to certain conditions precedent, of which the most important was that the Company obtain the necessary licenses from Florida (and the DEA) for the ownership of a drug distribution company like PIMD. However, it was determined that securing the licenses was going to require a substantially longer period of time than the parties had anticipated. Consequently, in order to preserve the business opportunity, it was necessary to change the structure of the relationship. Accordingly, the original purchase agreement was cancelled and voided. The funds already advanced by ScripsAmerica to PIMD were converted to a loan and the relationship between PIMD and ScripsAmerica became a Sourcing and Marketing Agreement. Implex Corporation, owned by the Company’s legal counsel, who is a Florida resident, has stepped in to assist with any licensing issues. The Company believes that if licensing is required it will be that of Implex, based in Florida and with a Florida owner.

Under this Sourcing and Marketing Agreement, which the Company entered into with PIMD in December 2013, the Company will assist PIMD by helping PIMD to (1) secure advantageous sources of drugs and (2) secure marketing and sales assistance in selling the drugs. For these services, the Company will receive a “Sourcing and Marketing Fee” which is 45% of the “Calculated Basis” to be calculated under a formula in the Sourcing and Marketing Agreement.

 

The funds already advanced by ScripsAmerica to PIMD were converted to a loan. Implex, a related party, borrowed $272,000 from ScripsAmerica at an interest rate of 2% and it has re-loaned the funds to PIMD at an interest rate of 5%. Implex will keep the 3% differential. The Company’s loan to Implex and Implex’s loan to PIMD are both for a 5-year period. Implex will be entering into a “Business Development and Retention Agreement” with PIMD to assist PIMD with the development of its business.

Fox, entered into a stock purchase agreement with the owner to acquire the specialty pharmacy Main Avenue Pharmacy, Inc., located in Clifton, New Jersey, for $550,000. The purchase price will be paid in installments and the shares will be held by an escrow agent until the final payment is made. Under the purchase agreement, the final agreement is to be made on July 11, 2014 (unless extended by the parties).

The significant fluctuations in the revaluation of derivative liabilities at December 31, 2013 relate partially to the Company having sufficient trading activity to utilize the actual volatility of the trading of the Company’s common stock as an assumption when computing the fair value of derivative liabilities which were deemed to be sufficient trading activity commencing in January 2013. The Company had previously estimated the volatility assumption by averaging the volatility of three similar entities which resulted in a lower volatility. The increase in value of the volatility assumption has led to a higher valuation of derivative liabilities associated with the convertible notes payable, disclosed in Note 12.

 

14 - Convertible Preferred Stock

 

Convertible Preferred Stock

 

On April 1, 2011 the Company issued 2,990,252 shares of convertible preferred stock (“Series A Preferred stock”) for $1,043,000 to a related party. The Series A Preferred stock has the following rights, preferences, powers, privileges, and restrictions: (a) 8% dividend (appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock splits); the dividends shall accrue and are payable quarterly when the Company has positive equity and earnings per Delaware General Corporation Law. (b) Preferential payments of the assets available for distribution to its stockholders by reason of their ownership in an amount equal to the Series A Preferred stock Original Issue price ($.1744). (c) Voting rights - one vote for the number equal to the number of whole shares of common stock and shall be entitled to elect one director of the Corporation. (d) Rights to Convert – Each share of Series A Preferred stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder at any time and from time to time without the payment of additional consideration by the holder into such number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock as determined by dividing the Original Issue price by the Conversion price in effect at the time of the conversion. The conversion price is initially equal to $.1744 and can be adjusted any time if the Company issues non-exempted common shares at a price below $.1744. At December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 these convertible preferred stock shares can be converted into 5,980,504 shares of the Company’s common stock. (e) the owner of the Series A Preferred stock can waive its right to adjust the conversion price at his choosing and as of April 10, 2014 has not exercise his right to do so. (f) Exempted securities – no anti-dilution protection for shares issued to employees, directors or consultants or advisors if the issuance is approved by the Board.

 

The Company has reviewed the rights and privileges of the convertible preferred stock and determined the holders have a liquidation preference which requires the Company to redeem the preferred shares at the original issuance price as a result of either a voluntary or involuntary liquidation event, as defined.  The Company has determined this preference meets the requirement that the potential redemption is outside of the control of the Company.  As a result, the convertible preferred stock has to be recorded outside of permanent equity.

 

Since this Series A Preferred Stock has liquidation preference which is outside the control of the Company it was not recorded in the stockholders' deficit section but rather as mezzanine equity in the consolidated balance sheets. Because we also had losses for 2012 and 2013 and an accumulated deficit, under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law our directors cannot declare a dividend without incurring personal liability. However, in accordance with privileges of the Series A Preferred stock, as noted above, the Company shall continue to accrue dividends regardless of declaration by the Board of Directors. We had a stockholders’ deficit of $3,470,827 at December 31, 2013. Since we did not generate net income in fiscal years 2013 and 2012, our board of directors will not be able to declare a dividend nor will we be able to pay the dividend owed to the Series A Preferred Stockholder, and as such, dividends will be accrued. As of December 31, 2013 we have accrued $187,740 which is classified as a long-term liability in the balance sheet. We will not be able to declare any dividends to our common stockholders until the accrued dividends owed to the Series A Preferred Stockholder have been paid.

16 - Income Taxes

 

As of December 31, 2013, the Company had a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $5,927,000 available to reduce future federal and state taxable income, expiring through 2033. We established valuation allowance of $2,015,200 and $597,591, or 100%, as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, of the deferred tax asset because of the uncertainty of the utilization of the operating losses in future periods. The allowance increased $1,417,609 and $597,591 during 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

Future ownership changes may limit the future utilization of these net operating loss and research and development tax credit carry-forwards as defined by the Internal Revenue Code. We performed an analysis and determined that the Net operating losses and research and development expenses are not limited under Section 382. The net deferred tax asset has been fully offset by a valuation allowance due to our history of taxable losses and uncertainty regarding our ability to generate sufficient taxable income in the future to utilize these deferred tax assets.

 

The Company files federal and Delaware state income taxes. Currently, there are no tax examinations in progress, nor has the Company had any federal or state examinations since its inception in 2008. All of the Company’s tax years are subject to federal and state tax examination.

 

Our provision for income taxes at December 31, 2013 and 2012 consisted of the following

 

    2013     2012  
Current                
Federal   $     $ 41,200  
State           1,797

The effective tax rates differ from the statutory rates for 2012 and 2011 primarily due to the following:

 

    2013     2012  
    Amount     Effective Tax Rate
Percentage
    Amount     Effective Tax Rate
Percentage
 
                         
Federal income tax liability (benefit)   $ (3,794,531 )     -34.0 %   $ (618,542 )     -34.0 %
State taxes           0 %     1,979       0.1 %
Permanent deductible expense     1,700,633       15.2 %     62,151       3.4 %
Adjustment in valuation allowance     2,093,898       18.8 %     587,591       19.0 %
Tax expense (benefit)   $       0.0 %   $ 43,179       -2.4 %

 

 

The components of the net deferred tax assets (liabilities) at December 31, 2013 and 2012 are as follows:

 

    2013     2012  
Deferred Tax asset                
Allowance for doubtful accounts   $ 423,497     $ 252,791  
Net Operating Loss     1,591,703       344,800  
Total Deferred Tax asset     2,015,200       597,591  
Deferred Tax Liability            
                 
Less Valuation Allowance     2,015,200       597,591  
Total Deferred tax asset   $     $  

 

The Company periodically assesses the likelihood that it will be able to recover its deferred tax assets and determines if a valuation allowance is necessary. We consider all available evidence, both positive and negative, including historical levels of income, expectations and risks associated with estimates of future taxable income. As a result of this analysis the Company concluded that it is more likely than not that the Company will not recover the deferred tax asset and, accordingly, recorded a valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

 

17 - Commitments and Contingencies

 

In May 2013, the Company signed a “Development, Manufacturing and Supply Agreement” with a pharmaceutical manufacturer to develop and manufacture our 80mg and 160mg Acetaminophen RapiMed® rapid orally disintegrating tablets. The initial term of the agreement is two years with an option to a one five year contract extension. In addition to development and scale up costs, the Company will pay up to $150,000 to license the technology during the first two years. In order to maintain exclusivity rights for the technology the Company must purchase a minimum of 10,000,000 tablets each of the 80mg and 160mg tablets in the first year and 16,500,000 tablets for both 80mg 160mg in the second year. After the second year annual volume requirements need to be achieved for the Company to maintain exclusivity of the license. In 2014, the Company terminated this agreement with the pharmaceutical manufacturer due to the manufacturer’s deteriorating financial condition. There were no obligations due to the third party at December 31, 2013 and through the termination date.

 

Previously, the Company had entered into a Product Development, Manufacturing and Supply Agreement with Marlex Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Contract Manufacturer” or “Marlex”) in March 2010. The Contract Manufacturer was to develop rapid melt tablets in accordance with the specifications of the agreement with the Company responsible for all associated costs with the proprietary rights owned by the Company. The Company and the Contract Manufacturer agreed upon a projected product cost to be paid to the Contract Manufacturer as well as 7% of gross profits for the term of the agreement. The Company can terminate this agreement and did so in the third quarter 2013 (see note 10). All development costs through the date of notice have previously been expensed and paid.

 

The holders of a $250,000 convertible note which was converted into 2,000,000 shares of our common stock on March 12, 2012 are entitled to a 4% royalty from the sales of our orally disintegrating rapidly dissolving 80mg and 160mg pain relief tablets. The royalty payments associated with this agreement have no minimum guarantee amounts and royalty payments will end only if the product line of Acetaminophen rapidly dissolving 80mg and 160mg tablets is sold to a third party. There have been no shipments through December 31, 2013 applicable to this royalty payment.

18 - Earnings Per Common Share

 

The basic earnings per share or loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The assumed exercise of common stock equivalents were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per common share for the years ended December 31 2013 and 2012 because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2013, common stock equivalents consisted of preferred stock convertible into 5,980,504 shares, warrants convertible into 228,572 shares, options convertible into 5,015,000 shares and notes payable convertible into 16,016,229 shares of common stock.

Cancellation of GEM Agreement

 

On October 11, 2013, the Company entered into a financing agreement with GEM Global Yield Fund Limited ("GEM Global") and a related party to provide funding to the Company of up to $2 million. Under the terms of the financing agreement, the Company may sell restricted shares of its common stock to GEM Global, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, at a purchase price to be negotiated between the Company and GEM Global pursuant to section 4(2) and/or rule 506 of regulator. The Registrant will use the capital raised from the financing agreement primarily to fund the manufacturing and marketing of its RapiMed® children's pain reliever domestically and internationally, as well as for working capital. As of November 14 there were no shares issued for funding.

 

On January 14, 2014, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with GEM Global, 590 Partners, LLC and the GEM Group, pursuant to which, among other things, the parties agreed to declare null and void and of no further effect the October 2013 financing agreement as well as any other negotiated but unsigned documents between and/or among the parties. In addition, in connection with such voiding, the GEM Warrants were cancelled and the Company issued to each of GEM Global and 590 Partners, LLC (i) a warrant exercisable to purchase 1,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.41, (ii) a warrant exercisable to purchase 750,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.55 and (iii) a warrant exercisable to purchase 750,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.75 (collectively, the “New GEM Warrants”). All of the New GEM Warrants expire on January 14, 2019 and are only exercisable on a cash basis (they do not contain any cashless exercise provisions) Additionally, the Company granted registration rights to 590 Partners and GEM Global to register the resale of the shares underlying the New GEM Warrants. The New GEM Warrants do have price protection features. Additionally, in the event that the closing price of the Company’s common stock is equal to or greater than 160% of the exercise price of the applicable New GEM Warrant for 22 consecutive trading days, then such New GEM Warrant will automatically be cancelled 30 days after the Company delivers notice of such cancellation to GEM Global and 590 Partners. However, each of GEM Global and 590 Partners may exercise their New GEM Warrant in full after the notice from the Company but prior to the cancellation date.

 

The fair value of these 5.0 million warrants on January 14, 2014, was $552,318 using the Black-Sholes model with the following assumptions: Volatility 182.9%, 5 year life, risk free rate of 1.65% and zero dividend rate. This fair value of $552,318 will be expensed in our first quarter earnings in 2014.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

 

None.

 

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

 

The term “disclosure controls and procedures” (defined in SEC Rule 13a-15(e)) refers to the controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within required time periods. “Disclosure controls and procedures” include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer noted the deficiencies in internal controls identified is subsection (c) of this Item. Accordingly, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, such controls and procedures were not effective.

 

(b ) Changes in Internal Controls.

 

The term “internal control over financial reporting” (defined in SEC Rule 13a-15(f)) refers to the process of a company that is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of the year covered by this annual report, and they have concluded that there was no change to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

(c) 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 as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We have assessed the effectiveness of those internal controls as of December 31, 2013, using the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) Internal Control –Integrated (1992) Framework as a basis for our assessment.

 

Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

 

A material weakness in internal controls is a deficiency in internal control, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the Company’s ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report external financial data reliably in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected. In the course of making our assessment of the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting, we identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting:

 

a. Deficiencies in Internal Control Structure Environment. The Company became a public corporation in November 2011. The Company’s focus was on securing the financing necessary to initiate revenue production. In June 2010, the Board engaged a full time Chief Financial Officer, who started in October 2010, and charged him with responsibility for establishing a system of internal controls appropriate for a public company. During 2013, the Company’s revenue significantly decreased and left inadequate resources for the Company’s Chief Financial Officer to establish a system of internal controls appropriate for us as a public company.

 

42
 

 

b. Inadequate staffing and supervision within the accounting operations of our company. The relatively small number of employees who are responsible for accounting functions prevents the Company from segregating duties within its internal control system. The inadequate segregation of duties is a weakness because it could lead to the untimely identification and resolution of accounting and disclosure matters or could lead to a failure to perform timely and effective reviews. The Company’s plan is to expand its accounting operations as the business of the Company expands.

 

The Company believes that the financial statements fairly present, in all material respects, the Company’s balance sheets as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, notwithstanding the material weaknesses we identified.

 

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 rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

The policy provides for pre-approval by the Board of specifically defined audit and non-audit services. Unless the specific service has been previously pre-approved with respect to that year, the Board must approve the permitted service before the independent registered public accounting firm is engaged to perform it. All of the services performed by our independent registered public accounting firm during 2013 and 2012 were pre-approved by the Board of Directors.
