NOTE 2 – INTERIM STATEMENT PRESENTATION

 

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019 of Cemtrex Inc.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Unites States (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X pursuant to the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (‘SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes, and the reported amounts of revenues, expenses and cash flows during the periods presented. Actual amounts and results could differ from those estimates. The estimates and assumptions the Company makes are based on historical factors, current circumstances and the experience and judgment of the Company’s management. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis.

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Cemtrex Advanced Technologies Inc., Cemtrex Ltd., Cemtrex Technologies Pvt. Ltd., and Advanced Industrial Services, Inc. and the Company’s majority-owned subsidiary Vicon Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries, Telesite USA, IQInVision, Vicon Industries Ltd., Vicon Deutschland GmbH, and Vicon Systems, Ltd. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Significant Accounting Policies

 

Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, included in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019, includes a summary of the significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

Adoption of ASU 2016-02 (Topic 842)

 

On October 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02 (Topic 842), “Leases”. ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors may use the effective date method and elected certain practical expedients allowing the Company not to reassess:

 

  whether expired or existing contracts contain leases under the new definition of a lease;
  lease classification for expired or existing leases; and
  whether previously capitalized initial direct costs would qualify for capitalization under Topic 842.

 

The Company also made the accounting policy decision not to recognize lease assets and liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less.

 

See Note 10 for the impact implementing this standard had on our financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued amended guidance, Fair Value Measurement: Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, to modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements based on the concepts in the FASB Concepts Statements, including the consideration of costs and benefits. The new standard is effective for the Company from October 1, 2020. The Company believes adoption will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position.

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued amended guidance, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, to remove certain exceptions to the general principles from ASC 740 - Income Taxes, and to improve consistent application of U.S. GAAP for other areas of ASC 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. The guidance is effective for the Company on October 1, 2021; early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the guidance will have on its consolidated financial statement disclosures, results of operations and financial position.

 

NOTE 3 – LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

 

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive outstanding shares of common stock during the period to reflect the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through contingent share arrangements, stock options and warrants.

 

    For the three months ended     For the nine months ended  
    June 30,     June 30,  
    2020     2019     2020     2019  
                         
Basic weighted average shares outstanding     10,933,926       1,844,895       7,161,785       2,087,195  
Dilutive effect of options     -       -       -       -  
Dilutive effect of convertible debt     -       -       -       -  
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding     10,933,926       1,844,895       7,161,785       2,087,195  

 

For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, 1,483,965 and 538,076 shares of common stock, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

 

NOTE 4 – SEGMENT INFORMATION

 

The Company reports and evaluates financial information for two segments: Advanced Technologies (AT) segment, and the Industrial Services (IS) segment. The AT segment develops smart devices and provides progressive design and development solutions to create impactful experiences for mobile, web, virtual and augmented reality, wearables and television as well as providing cutting edge, mission critical security and video surveillance. The IS segment offers single-source expertise and services for rigging, millwrighting, in plant maintenance, equipment erection, relocation, and disassembly to diversified customers in USA in industries such as: chemical, steel, printing, construction, & petrochemical.

NOTE 5 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-level hierarchy is applied to prioritize the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

 

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under the guidance for fair value measurements are described below:

 

Level 1 — Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Our Level 1 assets include cash equivalents, banker’s acceptances, trading securities investments and investment funds. We measure trading securities investments and investment funds at quoted market prices as they are traded in an active market with sufficient volume and frequency of transactions.

 

Level 2 — Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. If the asset or liability has a specified contractual term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

 

Level 3 — Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. Level 3 assets and liabilities include cost method investments, goodwill, intangible assets, and property, plant and equipment, which are measured at fair value using a discounted cash flow approach when they are impaired. Quantitative information for Level 3 assets and liabilities reviewed at each reporting period includes indicators of significant deterioration in the earnings performance, credit rating, asset quality, business prospects of the investee, and financial indicators of the investee’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company’s fair value assets at June 30, 2020 and 2019 are as follows;

NOTE 10 – LEASES

 

ASC 842, “Leases”, requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at either the effective date (the “effective date method”) or the beginning of the earliest period presented (the “comparative method”) using a modified retrospective approach. Under the effective date method, the Company’s comparative period reporting is unchanged. In contrast, under the comparative method, the Company’s date of initial application is the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented, and the Topic 842 transition guidance is then applied to all comparative periods presented. Further, under either transition method, the standard includes certain practical expedients intended to ease the burden of adoption. The Company adopted ASC 842 October 1, 2019 using the effective date method and elected certain practical expedients allowing the Company not to reassess:

 

  whether expired or existing contracts contain leases under the new definition of a lease;
  lease classification for expired or existing leases; and
  whether previously capitalized initial direct costs would qualify for capitalization under Topic 842.

 

The Company also made the accounting policy decision not to recognize lease assets and liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less.

 

The Company entered into a financing lease for a single vehicle in the Industrial services segment with a term of 3 years. The Company enters into operating leases for its facilities in New York, United Kingdom, and India, as well as for vehicles for use in our Industrial Services segment. The operating lease terms range from 2 to 7 years. The Company excluded the renewal option on its applicable facility leases from the calculation of its right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.

NOTE 20 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

Cemtrex has evaluated subsequent events up to the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. Cemtrex concluded that the following subsequent events have occurred and require recognition or disclosure in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Potential Impacts of COVID-19 on our Business

 

The current COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our business operations and the results of our operations in the second and third quarters, primarily with delays in expected orders by many customers and deployment of newer versions of surveillance software since our technical facility in Pune, India has been under lock down. Overall bookings level in the IS segment of our business is down by more than 50%, however our AT segment has experienced relatively less slow down. In addition, due to delays in certain supply chain areas, the expected launch times of our new products and new versions are also delayed by several months.

 

The broader implications of COVID-19 on our results from operations going forward remains uncertain. The COVID-19 pandemic has the potential to cause adverse effects to our customers, suppliers or business partners in locations that have or will experience more pronounced disruptions, which could result in a reduction to future revenue and manufacturing output as well as delays in our new product development activities. However, on the other hand, opportunities in the video surveillance field have been growing for Vicon products.

 

The extent of the pandemic’s effect on our operational and financial performance will depend in large part on future developments, which cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. Future developments include the duration, scope and severity of the pandemic, the actions taken to contain or mitigate its impact both within and outside the jurisdictions where we operate, the impact on governmental programs and budgets, the development of treatments or vaccines, and the resumption of widespread economic activity. Due to the inherent uncertainty of the unprecedented and rapidly evolving situation, we are unable to predict with any confidence the likely impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our future operations.

 

Common shares issued subsequent to financial statements date.

 

In July and August of 2020, the Company issued 479,619 shares of common stock to satisfy $600,000 worth of notes payable.

 

Preferred shares issued for dividend

 

On July 6, the Company issued 111,134 shares of its Series 1 Preferred Stock to for the dividends that were accrued for the March 31, 2020 dividend payment but were delated due the COVID-19 crisis. The dividend was paid to shareholders of record as of June 30, 2020.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Except for historical information contained in this report, the matters discussed are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. When used in this report, words such as “anticipates”, “believes”, “could”, “estimates”, “expects”, “may”, “plans”, “potential” and “intends” and similar expressions, as they relate to the Company or its management, identify forward-looking statements. Our operations involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside our control, and any one of which, or a combination of which, could materially affect our results of operations and whether the forward-looking statements ultimately prove to be correct. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short-term and long-term business operations and objectives, and financial needs. Such forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of the Company’s management, as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to the Company’s management. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the following: the effect of business and economic conditions; the impact of competitive products and their pricing; unexpected manufacturing or supplier problems; the Company’s ability to maintain sufficient credit arrangements; changes in governmental standards by which our environmental control products are evaluated and the risk factors reported from time to time in the Company’s SEC reports, including its recent report on Form 10-K. The Company undertakes no obligation to update forward-looking statements as a result of future events or developments.

 

General Overview

 

Cemtrex was incorporated in 1998, in the state of Delaware and has evolved through strategic acquisitions and internal research & development from a small environmental monitoring instruments company into a world leading multi-industry technology company. The Company now specializes in the development of Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Virtual Reality (VR) enabled technologies that drive innovation in a wide range of sectors, including consumer products, industrial manufacturing, digital applications, and intelligent security & surveillance systems. Unless the context requires otherwise, all references to “we”, “our”, “us”, “Company”, “registrant”, “Cemtrex” or “management” refer to Cemtrex, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

 

The Company continuously assesses the composition of its portfolio businesses to ensure it is aligned with its strategic objectives and positioned to maximize growth and return in the coming years. During fiscal 2019, the Company made a strategic decision to exit its Electronics Manufacturing group by selling all companies in that business segment on August 15, 2019. During fiscal 2019, the Company also reached a strategic decision to exit its original environmental products business and sold those operations.

 

Now the Company has two business segments, consisting of (i) Advanced Technologies (AT) and (ii) Industrial Services (IS)

 

Advanced Technologies (AT)

 

Cemtrex’s Advanced Technologies segment delivers cutting-edge technologies in the Internet of Things (IoT), Wearables and Smart Devices, such as the SmartDesk. Through the Company’s advanced engineering and product design, Company delivers Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) products that provide higher productivity, progressive design and impactful experiences for consumer products, digital applications and industrial manufacturing.

 

The AT business segment also includes the Company’s majority owned subsidiary, Vicon Industries, which provides end-to-end security solutions to meet the toughest corporate, industrial and governmental security challenges. Vicon’s products include browser-based Video monitoring systems and facial recognition systems, cameras, servers, and access control systems for every aspect of security and surveillance in industrial and commercial facilities, federal prisons, hospitals, universities, schools, and federal and state government offices. Vicon provides cutting edge, mission critical security and video surveillance solutions utilizing Artificial Intelligence (AI).

 

22

 

 

Industrial Services (IS)

 

Cemtrex’s IS segment, offers single-source expertise and services for rigging, millwrighting, in plant maintenance, equipment erection, relocation, and disassembly to diversified customers. We install high precision equipment in a wide variety of industrial markets like automotive, printing & graphics, industrial automation, packaging, and chemicals among others. We are a leading provider of reliability-driven maintenance and contracting solutions for the machinery, packaging, printing, chemical, and other manufacturing markets. The focus is on customers seeking to achieve greater asset utilization and reliability to cut costs and increase production from existing assets, including small projects, sustaining capital, turnarounds, maintenance, specialty welding services, and high-quality scaffolding.

 

Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and the related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on our knowledge of current events, our actual amounts and results could differ from those estimates. The estimates made are based on historical factors, current circumstances, and the experience and judgment of our management, who continually evaluate the judgments, estimates and assumptions and may employ outside experts to assist in the evaluations.

 

Certain of our accounting policies are deemed “significant”, as they are both most important to the financial statement presentation and require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. For a discussion of our significant accounting policies, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2019.

Loss from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $4,490,368 and $1,667,033, respectively, an increase of $2,823,335, or 169%.

Loss from continuing operations increased due to decreased sales during the COVID-19 crisis.

Our Advanced Technologies segment revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020, decreased by $1,551,062 or 24% to $4,977,424 from $6,520,486 for the three months ended June 30, 2019. This decrease is mainly due to the impact of the COVID-19 crisis.

 

Our Industrial Services segment revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020, decreased by $937,004 or 21%, to $3,463,443 from $4,440,447 for the three months ended June 30, 2019. This decrease is mainly due to the impact of the COVID-19 crisis.

Gross profit decreased in the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019 due to lower sales, however the percentage increase is due to a shift by management in the last fiscal year to focus on products with higher gross margins. The Company’s gross profit margins vary from product to product and from customer to customer.

 

23

 

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 increased $1,549,578 or 38% to $5,606,659 from $4,057,081 for the three months ended June 30, 2019. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue was 66% and 37% of revenues for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The increase in General and Administrative Expenses both as a percentage of revenue is the reduction in sales from the same quarter last year and on a dollar per dollar basis is the result of increased salaries expense.

 

Research and Development Expenses

 

Research and Development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was $331,936 compared to $285,583 for the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Comprehensive loss decreased in the first three quarters as compared to comprehensive loss in the same period last year, as a result of the increased sales and foreign currency translation gain.

 

Effects of Inflation

 

The Company’s business and operations have not been materially affected by inflation during the periods for which financial information is presented.

 

25

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Working capital was $17,165,395 at June 30, 2020 compared to $3,240,348 at September 30, 2019. This includes cash and equivalents and restricted cash of $14,273,738 at June 30, 2020 and $2,858,085 at September 30, 2019, respectively. The increase in working capital was primarily due to the Company’s raising of capital through equity offerings in June 2020.

 

Accounts receivable decreased $1,654,509 or 26% to $4,804,475 at June 30, 2020 from $6,458,984 at September 30, 2019. The decrease in accounts receivable is attributable to lower sales in the third quarter of fiscal year 2020 due to the COVID-19 crisis.

 

Inventories increased $1,384,453 or 27% to $6,591,608 at June 30, 2020 from $5,207,155 at September 30, 2019. The increase inventories is attributable to the purchase of inventories to fulfill sales bookings not shipped in the third quarter.

 

Operating activities used $2,227,538 of cash for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 compared to providing $3,361,482 of cash for the nine months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in operating cash flows was primarily due to the increase in operating assets, as compared to the same period a year ago. Discontinued operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2019 provided cash of $1,636,714.

 

Investment activities used $6,653,700 of cash for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 compared to using cash of $2,114,350 during the nine-month period ended June 30, 2019. Investing activities for the first three quarters of fiscal year 2020 were driven by the Company’s investment in fixed assets and marketable securities. Discontinued operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2019 used cash of $119,482.

 

Financing activities provided $20,176,160 of cash in the nine-month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to providing cash of $81,739 in the nine-month period ended June 30, 2019. Financing activities were primarily driven by proceeds from notes payable, proceeds from bank loans, and proceeds from securities purchase agreements offset by payments on bank loans, notes payable, expenses of notes payable and equity offerings, and use of the Company’s revolving credit lines. Discontinued operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2019 used cash of $78,123.

 

We believe that our cash on hand and cash generated by operations is sufficient to meet the capital demands of our current operations during the 2020 fiscal year (ending September 30, 2020). Any major increases in sales, particularly in new products, may require substantial capital investment. Failure to obtain sufficient capital could materially adversely impact our growth potential.

 

Overall, there is no guarantee that cash flow from our existing or future operations and any external capital that we may be able to raise will be sufficient to meet our expansion goals and working capital needs.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures reporting as promulgated under the Exchange Act is defined as controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our CEO and our CFO have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2020. Based on their evaluation, our management has concluded that as of June 30, 2020 there is a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. The material weakness relates to the Company lacking sufficient accounting personnel. The shortage of accounting personal resulted in the Company lacking entity level controls around the review of period-end reporting processes, accounting policies and public disclosures. This deficiency is common in small companies, similar to us, with limited personnel.

 

In order to mitigate the material weakness, the Board of Directors has assigned a priority to the short-term and long-term improvement of our internal control over financial reporting. Our Board of Directors will work with management to continuously review controls and procedures to identified deficiencies and implement remediation within our internal controls over financial reporting and our disclosure controls and procedures.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

While there was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the Company’s last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, the Company is taking steps to improve its internal controls by obtaining additional accounting personnel.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

 

Our management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.
