NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015

 

Note 1 - Organization and Basis of Presentation

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") as promulgated in the United States of America ("U.S.") and with instructions to Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X under the Exchange Act. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, we have included all adjustments considered necessary (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) for a fair presentation. Operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2016 are not indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2017. You should read these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2016 filed on October 13, 2016. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2016 has been derived from the audited financial statements included in the Form 10-K for that year.

 

Cavitation Technologies, Inc. (referred to herein, unless otherwise indicated, as "the Company," "CTi," "we," "us," and "our") is a Nevada corporation originally incorporated under the name Bio Energy, Inc. CTi has developed, patented, and commercialized proprietary technology that may be used in liquid processing applications. CTi's patented Nano Reactor® is the critical component of CTi Nano Neutralization® System which is commercially proven to reduce operating costs and increase yields in refining vegetable oils. CTi has two patented systems and has filed several national and international patents to employ its proprietary technology in applications including, vegetable oil refining, waste water treatment, biodiesel, algae oil extraction, and alcoholic beverage enhancement.

 

Management's Plan Regarding Going Concern

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.  During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company incurred a net loss of $246,756 and used $214,359 of cash in operating activities.  As of September 30, 2016, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,026,241 and a stockholders' deficit of $889,531. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, our independent auditors, in their report on our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from an inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

As of September 30, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents on hand of $443,036 and are not generating sufficient funds to cover operations. In addition to the funds on hand, Management believes we will require additional funds to continue to operate our business. Management's plan is to generate income from operations by continuing to license our technology globally through our strategic partner, the Desmet Ballestra Group (Desmet). Desmet has agreed to provide us monthly advances of $50,000 to be applied against future sales pursuant to a January 2016 agreement. During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company received $100,000 advances from Desmet.

 

We will also attempt to raise additional debt and/or equity financing to fund operations and to provide additional working capital. However, there is no assurance that such financing will be consummated or obtained in sufficient amounts necessary to meet the Company's needs, that the Company will be able to achieve profitable operations or that the Company will be able to meet its future contractual obligations. Should management fail to obtain such financing, the Company may curtail its operations.

Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cavitation Technologies, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary Hydrodynamic Technology, Inc. Inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Fair Value Measurement

 

FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820-10 requires entities to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities recognized and not recognized on the balance sheet for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. ASC 820-10 defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties.

 

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

· Level 1 - Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access.
· Level 2 - Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
· Level 3 - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable, supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

At September 30, 2016 and June 30, 2016, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, inventory and accounts payable approximate their carrying values due to their short-term nature.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the financial statement date, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates are used in reserve for inventory obsolescence, impairment analysis for fixed assets, accrual of potential liabilities and valuing our stock options, warrants, and common stock issued for services, among other items. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue from the sale of our Nano Reactor® Systems is recognized when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists; shipment has occurred, including transfer of title and risk of loss for product sales, or services have been rendered for service revenues; the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured.

 

The Company is also entitled to certain non-refundable profit share from our distributor from the sale of the reactors. Pursuant to the January 2016 agreement with our distributor, the profit share is not fixed at the time of delivery, and as such, revenue will be recognized when the profit share is fixed and determinable, which will generally be upon delivery of the NANO Neutralization System by the distributor to its customer.

 

Patents

 

Capitalized patent costs represent legal fees associated with procuring and filing patent applications. The Company accounts for patents in accordance with ASC 350-30, General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill . The Company has five patents issued in fiscal 2014, 2012 and 2011. During fiscal years 2015 and 2016, we also received approvals in the US for another 5 patents for various processes and 1 for another device/apparatus. We also received 1 patent approval for its device in Singapore. As of September 30, 2016, the Company has a total of 15 patents pending. The patents have duration of twenty years from filing date. The Company amortizes its patents over a four-year period which we believe is a reasonable estimate based upon its estimate of time until the next generation of reactors is developed or until other forms of competition appear.

 

  6  

 

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, we recorded amortization expense of $3,358 and $6,021 respectively which was recorded as part of General and Administrative Expenses in the accompanying Statement of Operations. As of September 30, 2016, and June 30, 2016 the Company had remaining unamortized patent costs of $12,978 and $16,336 respectively.

 

Share-Based Compensation

 

The Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to employees based on the authoritative guidance provided by the Financial Accounting Standards Board whereas the value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized over the vesting period. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to non- employees in accordance with the authoritative guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board whereas the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Non-employee stock-based compensation charges generally are amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. In certain circumstances where there are no future performance requirements by the non-employee, option grants are immediately vested and the total stock-based compensation charge is recorded in the period of the measurement date.

 

The fair value of the Company's common stock options and warrants grant is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the common stock options, and future dividends. Compensation expense is recorded based upon the value derived from the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and based on actual experience. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model could materially affect compensation expense recorded in future periods.

 

Dependence on Desmet Ballestra

 

Our revenue is entirely dependent on Desmet Ballestra who is our exclusive distribution agent with regard to the CTi Nano Neutralization® System for edible oils. During the period ended September 30, 2016, 100% of our revenue was derived from Desmet sales efforts (see Note 3).

 

Basic Loss Per Share

 

The Company’s computation of earnings (loss) per share (EPS) includes basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Shares of restricted stock subject to vesting are included in basic weighted average common shares outstanding from the time they vest. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution, using the treasury stock method that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the net income (loss) of the Company. In computing diluted EPS, the treasury stock method assumes that outstanding options and warrants are exercised and the proceeds are used to purchase common stock at the average market price and there were no instruments that would result in issuance of additional shares during the period.

 

As of September 30, 2016, the Company had 11,685,852 stock options and 64,326,510 stock warrants outstanding to purchase shares of common stock that were not included in the diluted net loss per common share because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09), Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 will eliminate transaction- and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 will require that companies recognize revenue based on the value of transferred goods or services as they occur in the contract. The ASU also will require additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. Entities can transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. Management is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 and has not determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases . ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to record a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. ASU 2016-02 is effective for all interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02 on the Company’s financial statements and disclosures.

 

  7  

 

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued the ASU 2016-09,  Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) : Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The amendments in this ASU require, among other things, that all income tax effects of awards be recognized in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled. The ASU also allows for an employer to repurchase more of an employee's shares than it can today for tax withholding purposes without triggering liability accounting and allows for a policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for any entity in any interim or annual period. The Company is currently evaluating the expected impact that the standard could have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

 

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements.

 

Business and Credit Concentrations

 

The Company’s cash balances in financial institutions at times may exceed federally insured limits. As of September 30, 2016, and June 30, 2016, before adjustments for outstanding checks and deposits in transit, the Company had approximately $443,000 and $657,000, respectively, deposited in one financial institution. The deposits are federally insured up to $250,000. The Company believes that no significant concentration of credit risk exists with respect to these cash balances because of its assessment of the creditworthiness and financial viability of this financial institution.

 

All recorded revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2016 of $85,000 were attributable to one customer (see Note 3).

 

Note 3 - Agreement with Desmet Ballestra

 

On January 22, 2016, the Company signed a three-year agreement with Desmet effective August 1, 2015 for the sale and marketing of the Company’s Nano reactor system. As part of the agreement, Desmet will provide, under certain conditions, limited monthly advance payments of $50,000 against future sales to CTi. The agreement may be terminated by Desmet every August 1 should Desmet and its affiliates fail to convert a minimum of six Nano Reactors System to sold status during the period of June 1 to May 31. The agreement may also be terminated in case the Company loses ownership of patents and patent applications being used in the NANO Neutralization System.

 

Pursuant to the 2016 Agreement, the Company recognizes revenue from sale of reactors upon shipment and acceptance by Desmet, as the Company has no further obligations to Desmet other than the reactor’s two-year standard warranty. In addition, Desmet now pays for such reactors on credit terms and the amount of the sale is recorded as a receivable upon acceptance by Desmet. The Company also continues to receive a share in gross margin or profit from the sale of Desmet’s integrated neutralization system to its customer of which the reactors are an integral component, however, such amount is now subject to adjustment based on certain factors including costs over run. The Company deemed that such amount is not yet fixed and determinable upon shipment of the reactors. As a result, the corresponding revenue is now being recognized upon installation and acceptance of the integrated neutralization system by Desmet’s customer.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recognized revenue of $85,000 related to the shipment and acceptance of reactors to Desmet and received advances in the aggregate of $100,000 pursuant to this agreement. As of September 30, 2016, the Company also recorded receivable from Desmet in the aggregate of $127,500, as such, for financial reporting purposes, the Company deducted this amount from the advance payments received which resulted in a net balance of $472,500 in advances from distributor, net as of that date. The Company expects to recognize approximately $317,000 from its share in gross margin in future periods upon delivery and acceptance of the NANO Neutralization System by Desmet to its customer.

Note 7 - Commitments and Contingencies

 

Litigation

 

The Company may be involved in certain legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of its business. Except for income tax contingencies (commencing April 1, 2009), the Company records accruals for contingencies to the extent that management concludes that the occurrence is probable and that the related amounts of loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal expenses associated with the contingency are expensed as incurred.

 

In August 2014, a former employee and former Director filed an administrative Complaint for approximately $179,000 in unpaid wages, plus penalties and interest, with the California Labor Commissioner’s Office (CLCO).  In January 2016, the CLCO ruled in favor of the Company and dismissed the case. As a result of this ruling, the Company’s obligation to the former employee and former Director only amounted to approximately $134,000 which was already accrued in prior periods and included as part of Accrued Payroll and payroll taxes due to officers in the accompanying balance sheet.

 

In February 2016, the former employee and former Director appealed this ruling to the Los Angeles County Superior Court.  In addition to defending itself, the Company also has filed a cross-complaint against the former employee and former Director for breach of contract and breach of fiduciary duty as a Director.  Trial is currently scheduled to begin in 2017. Based upon available information at this very early stage of litigation, Management believes the likelihood of material loss resulting from this lawsuit to be remote.

ITEM 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as its plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Its actual results and the timing of certain events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.

 

Overview of our Business

 

Cavitation Technologies, Inc. ("CTi"), a Nevada corporation, was originally incorporated under the name Bio Energy, Inc. We design and engineer environmentally friendly technology based systems that are designed to serve large, growing, global markets such as vegetable oil refining, renewable fuels, water treatment, algae oil extraction, biodiesel production, water-oil emulsions and crude oil yield enhancement.  Our systems are designed to process industrial liquids at a lower cost and higher yield than conventional technology. We are a process and product development firm that has developed, patented, and commercialized proprietary technology.

 

CTi has developed, patented, and commercialized proprietary technology that can be used for processing of industrial fluids. CTi's patented Nano Reactor® is the critical components of the CTi Nano Neutralization® System which is commercially proven to reduce operating costs and increase yields in processing oils and fats. CTi has two issued patents relating to our Nano Reactor® systems and has filed several national and international patents to employ its proprietary technology in applications including, vegetable oil refining, biodiesel production, waste water treatment, algae oil extraction, and alcoholic beverage enhancement.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, we recorded revenue of $85,000, net loss of $246,756 and used cash in operations of $214,359.

 

Management's Plan

 

We are engaged in merchandising our Neutralization System which is designed to help refine vegetable oils such as soybean, canola, sunflower and rapeseed.  Our near term goal is to continue to merchandise our systems through our partner, Desmet Ballestra Group (Desmet). During the three months ended September 30, 2016, we recorded revenues of $85,000 and incurred a net loss of $246,756.  As of September 30, 2016, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,026,241 and a stockholders' deficit of $889,531.   The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.

 

As of September 30, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents on hand of $443,037 and are not generating sufficient funds to cover operations. In addition to the funds on hand, Management believes we will require additional funds to continue to operate our business. Management's plan is to generate income from operations by continuing to license our technology globally through our strategic partner, Desmet. Desmet has agreed to provide us monthly advances of $50,000 to be applied against future sales pursuant to a January of 2016 agreement. During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company received $100,000 advances from Desmet.

 

In addition to these advances, we anticipate that we will need additional funding, and we will attempt to raise additional debt and/or equity financing to fund operations and to provide additional working capital. However, there is no assurance that such agreement with Desmet will be successful and such financing will be consummated or obtained in sufficient amounts necessary to meet our needs, or that we will be able to meet our future contractual obligations. Should management fail to obtain such financing, we may curtail operations. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from our inability to continue as a going concern. As a result of the aforementioned factors, our independent auditors, in their report on our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

CTi's critical accounting policies and estimates are included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2016, and did not change for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

  Results of Operations

 

The following is a comparison of our results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.

    2016     2015     $ Change     % Change

Net income (loss)   $ (246,756 )   $ 150,609       (397,365 )     -263.8 %

 

Revenue

 

We recorded $85,000 in revenue in the first three months September 30, 2016 and $496,279 in revenue in the three months ended September 30, 2015. Included in the recorded revenue for the three-month ended September 30, 2015 was a share in gross margin from the sale of reactor system to Desmet amounting to $341,278. There was no similar transaction recorded in 2016.

 

Cost of Revenue

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, our cost of sales amounted to $7,912, and to $44,509 during the same period in prior year, which was the result of the revenue transactions described above.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2017 amounted to $323,844 compared with $301,161 for the same period in 2016, an increase of $22,683, or 7.5%. In the first quarter of fiscal 2017, compensation amounted to $137,689 or 43% of total costs compared with $104,228 or 35% of total costs in the first quarter of fiscal 2016. This increase in compensation in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was attributable largely to an increase in management salaries.

 

The other major component of operating expense was professional service fees related to accounting, and legal services which amounted to $56,507 or 17% of total operating expenses versus professional service fees related to accounting, and legal services which amounted to $47,318 or 16% in fiscal 2016.

 

Research and development (R&D) expenses remained relatively low as we continued to rely on Desmet Ballestra for support in R&D. It is our intention to pursue R&D as our cash position permits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.   As of September 30, 2016, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,026,241 and a stockholders' deficit of $889,531. Furthermore, we have been dependent on most of our funding from a technology agreement with a distributor. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our independent auditors, in their report on our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016 expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from an inability of us to continue as a going concern.

 

Management's plan is to generate income from operations by licensing our technology globally through our strategic partner, the Desmet Ballestra Group (Desmet). In January 2016, we signed a marketing and research and development agreement with Desmet which include among others, a monthly advance of $50,000 that will be applied to future sales. We will need additional funding, and we will attempt to raise additional debt and/or equity financing to fund operations and to provide additional working capital. However, there is no assurance that such financing will be consummated or obtained in sufficient amounts necessary to meet the Company's needs, or that the Company will be able to meet its future contractual obligations. Should management fail to obtain such financing, the Company may curtail its operations.

 

At September 30, 2016, we had cash on hand in the amount of $443,037. In addition to the funds on hand, we will require additional funds to continue to operate our business. This includes expenses we will incur in connection with costs to manufacture and ship our products; costs to design and implement an effective system of internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures; costs of maintaining our status as a public company by filing periodic reports with the SEC and costs required to protect our intellectual property. In addition, we have contractual commitments for salaries to our executive officers. In light of our financial commitments over the next several months and its liquidity constraints, we have implemented cost reduction measures in all areas of operations. We intend to review these measures on an ongoing basis and make additional decisions as may be required.

 

Cash Flow

 

Net cash used by operating activities during the three months ended September 30, 2016 amounted to $214,359 compared with $312,295 provided by these activities for the same period in fiscal 2016. Funding for the operating activities was provided by cash reserves and advances from a distributor. For the first quarter of fiscal 2017, we paid $137,639 in employees' compensation, $56,507 in professional services fees, $24,766 in various insurance premiums, and approximately $100,000 in fixed operating costs and other obligations. In the first quarter of 2016, we paid $104,228 in employees' compensation, $47,318 in professional services fees, $24,500 in various insurance premiums, and approximately $137,000 in fixed operating costs and other obligations.

 

There was no cash used for investing activities in the current fiscal quarter, as well as the same period of fiscal 2016.

 

For the periods ended September 30, 2016, and September 30, 2015 there were no financing activities.

ITEM 4.  Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

In accordance with rule 13a-15(a), CTi management must maintain disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

In accordance with Rule 13a-15(b) and (c), management must also evaluate the effectiveness of these disclosure control and procedures at the end of each fiscal year. As of September 30, 2016, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2016.
