BRAIN SCIENTIFIC INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2019

(unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Brain Scientific Inc. (the “Company”), was incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada on November 18, 2013 under the name All Soft Gels Inc. The Company on September 21, 2018 acquired MemoryMD, Inc. (“MemoryMD”), a privately held Delaware corporation formed in February 2015. Upon completion of the acquisition, MemoryMD is treated as the surviving entity and accounting acquirer although the Company was the legal acquirer. Accordingly, the Company’s historical financial statements are those of MemoryMD, the surviving entity and accounting acquirer. MemoryMD is a cloud computing, data analytics and medical device technology company in the NeuroTech and brain monitoring industries seeking to commercialize its EEG devices and caps. The Company is headquartered in New York, New York.

 

Reverse Merger and Corporate Restructure

 

On September 21, 2018, the Company entered into a merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) with MemoryMD and AFGG Acquisition Corp. to acquire MemoryMD (the “Acquisition”). The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement were consummated on September 21, 2018 and, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, all outstanding shares of MemoryMD were exchanged for shares of the Company’s common stock. Accordingly, the Company acquired 100% of MemoryMD in exchange for the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock and MemoryMD became the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary. The Company issued an additional 4,083,252 shares of its common stock upon the automatic conversion at the closing of an aggregate of $1,507,000 principal amount plus accrued interest of outstanding convertible promissory notes issued by MemoryMD, and it further issued an additional 1,604,378 shares of its common stock upon the automatic conversion immediately subsequent to the closing of an aggregate of $640,000 principal amount plus accrued interest of outstanding convertible promissory notes issued by MemoryMD. Furthermore, as of the closing, Mr. Amer Samad, the sole director and executive officer until the consummation of the Acquisition, committed to tender for cancellation 6,495,000 shares of the Company’s common stock as part of the conditions to closing, of which 6,375,000 have been cancelled at December 31, 2018 and 120,000 are expected to be cancelled as soon as practicable. Total shares issued as a result of the Acquisition was 13,421,752.

 

The Acquisition has been accounted for as a reverse recapitalization of Brain Scientific by MemoryMD, but in substance as a capital transaction, rather than a business combination since Brain Scientific had nominal or no operations and assets prior to and as of the closing of the Acquisition. The transaction is deemed a reverse recapitalization and the accounting is similar to that resulting from a reverse acquisition, except that no goodwill or other intangible assets should be recorded. For accounting purposes, MemoryMD is treated as the surviving entity and accounting acquirer although Brain Scientific was the legal acquirer. Accordingly, the Company’s historical financial statements are those of MemoryMD.

 

All references to common stock, share and per share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse recapitalization as if the transaction had taken place as of the beginning of the earliest period presented.

 

Assignment and Assumption Agreement

 

As of immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition, the Company entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Chromium 24 LLC, pursuant to which Chromium 24 LLC assumed all of the Company’s remaining assets and liabilities through the closing of the Acquisition. Accordingly, as of the closing of the Acquisition, Brain Scientific had no assets or liabilities other than the shares of MemoryMD acquired in the Acquisition.

 

Name Change and Increase in Authorized Shares

 

On September 18, 2018, the Company filed an amendment to its certificate of incorporation with the Nevada Secretary of State to change its name to Brain Scientific Inc. On September 18, 2018, FINRA approved of the name change as well as a ticker symbol change, which was effective as of September 19, 2018. In addition, the Company increased its authorized shares of common stock from 50,000,000 to 200,000,000 and created and authorized 10,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock.

 

 

BRAIN SCIENTIFIC INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2019

(unaudited)

 

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

 

The Company has prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting. These consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in the Company’s opinion, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals necessary for a fair presentation of its balance sheets, operating results, and cash flows for the periods presented. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for 2019. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and accompanying notes.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The Company evaluates the need to consolidate affiliates based on standards set forth in ASC 810 Consolidation (“ASC 810”).

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary, MemoryMD. All significant consolidated transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Reclassifications to Prior Period Financial Statements and Adjustments

 

Certain reclassifications have been made in the Company’s financial statements of the prior year to conform to the current year presentation. $11,500 in professional fees in the three months ended March 31, 2018 were reclassified from general and administrative expenses to professional fees. These reclassifications have no impact on previously reported net income.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the useful life of property and equipment and assumptions used in the valuation of options and warrants.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had no cash equivalents.

 

The Company’s cash is held with financial institutions, and the account balances may, at times, exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limit. Accounts are insured by the FDIC up to $250,000 per financial institution. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts with these financial institutions. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had $0 and $0, respectively, in excess over the FDIC insurance limit.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory consists of finished goods that are valued at lower of cost or market.  As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had inventory totaling $0 and $0, respectively.

Property, Equipment and Depreciation

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Expenditures for repair and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. Property and equipment consisted of computer equipment, with an estimated useful life of three years. Depreciation expense was $299 and $161 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Accumulated depreciation at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $1,400 and $1,101, respectively. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, property and equipment, net was $2,705 and $1,999 respectively.

 

Convertible Notes Payable

 

The Company has issued convertible notes, which contain variable conversion features, whereby the outstanding principal and accrued interest automatically convert into common shares at a fixed price which may be a discount to the common stock at the time of conversion. The conversion features of these notes are contingent upon future events, whereby, the holder agreed not to convert until the contingent future event has occurred.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue by applying the following steps:  (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied. Once the steps are met, revenue is recognized, generally upon delivery of the product. There has been no material effect on the Company’s financial statements as a result of adopting Topic 606.

 

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of its NeuroCaps, Universal Cables and its proprietary software connected to its cloud-based computing system that that can assist in diagnosis by assessing pathology, abnormalities, and other factors.

 

Research and Development Costs

 

The Company expenses all research and development costs as they are incurred. Research and development includes expenditures in connection with in-house research and development salaries and staff costs, application and filing for regulatory approval of proposed products, regulatory and scientific consulting fees, as well as contract research, data collection, and monitoring, related to the research and development of the cloud infrastructure, data imaging, and proprietary products and technology. Research and development costs recognized in the statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were $22,290 and $36,906, respectively.

 

Sales and Marketing

 

Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising and marketing costs recognized in the statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were $47,792 and $18,461, respectively.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based payments at fair value over the requisite service period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the weighted average fair value of options and warrants. Equity-based compensation expense is recorded in administrative expenses based on the classification of the employee or vendor. The determination of fair value of stock-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by our stock price as well as by assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Common Share

 

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive securities consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon exercise of common stock equivalents such as stock options, warrants and convertible debt instruments. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. As a result, the basic and diluted per share amounts for all periods presented are identical. In the three months ended March 31, 2019, 2,202,250 anti-dilutive securities were excluded from the computation.

  

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company's financial instruments are measured and recorded at fair value based on inputs and assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining fair value, management considers the principal or most advantageous market in which the Company would transact, and also considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance.

 

Fair value is determined for assets and liabilities using a three-tiered value hierarchy into which these assets and liabilities are grouped based upon significant inputs as follows:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

 

Level 2 - Observable inputs, other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

 

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs. When a determination is made to classify a financial instrument within Level 3, the determination is based upon the lack of significance of the observable parameters to the overall fair value measurement. However, the fair value determination for Level 3 financial instruments may consider some observable market inputs.

 

The lowest level of significant input determines the placement of the entire fair value measurement in the hierarchy. The carrying values of cash, prepaid expenses and other current assets, convertible notes, accounts payable, loans payable and due to others approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these items.

 

The Company did not have any other Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 assets or liabilities as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

  

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset-and-liability method in accordance with ASC Topic 740, "Income Taxes". Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on the deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rate is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded if it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized in future periods.

The Company follows the guidance in ASC Topic 740-10 in assessing uncertain tax positions. The standard applies to all tax positions and clarifies the recognition of tax benefits in the financial statements by providing for a two-step approach of recognition and measurement. The first step involves assessing whether the tax position is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination based upon its technical merits. The second step involves measurement of the amount to be recognized. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate finalization with the taxing authority. The Company recognizes the impact of an uncertain income tax position in the financial statements if it believes that the position is more likely than not to be sustained by the relevant taxing authority. The Company will recognize interest and penalties related to tax positions in income tax expense. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had no unrecognized uncertain income tax positions.

 

On December 22, 2017, the passage of legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”) was enacted and significantly revised the U.S. income tax law. The TCJA includes changes, which reduce the corporate income tax rate from 34% to 21% for years beginning after December 31, 2017. On December 22, 2017, Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) was issued and allows a company to recognize provisional amounts when it does not have the necessary information available, prepared or analyzed, including computations, in reasonable detail to complete its accounting for the change in tax law. SAB 118 provides for a measurement of up to one year from the date of enactment.

 

Recent Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies that the Company adopts as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company does not believe that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets as a right-of-use asset with a corresponding lease liability. Lessor accounting under the standard is substantially unchanged. Additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures are also required. The Company adopted the standard effective January 1, 2019 using the cumulative-effect adjustment transition method, which applies the provisions of the standard at the effective date without adjusting the comparative periods presented. The Company adopted the following practical expedients and elected the following accounting policies related to this standard update:

 

 

The option to not reassess prior conclusions related to the identification, classification and accounting for initial direct costs for leases that commenced prior to January 1, 2019.

 

 

Short-term lease accounting policy election allowing lessees to not recognize right-of-use assets and liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less.

 

 

The option to not separate lease and non-lease components for certain equipment lease asset categories such as freight car, vehicles and work equipment.

 

 

The package of practical expedients applied to all of its leases, including (i) not reassessing whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) not reassessing the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (iii) not reassessing initial direct costs for any existing leases.

 

The Company has inventoried all leases where the Company is a lessee as of the initial date of application and has examined other contracts with suppliers, vendors, customers and other outside parties to identify whether such contracts contain an embedded lease as defined under the new guidance. The Company’s lease population comprises lease for corporate office space and a warehouse that are year-to-year basis with monthly rent ranging from approximately $1,320 to $5,000 and qualify under the practical expedient of short-term leases. The Company does not have exclusive rights of control to any assets in the customer and vendor contracts reviews and does not have any financing leases as of the date of adoption of ASC 842.

As a result of the above, the adoption of ASC 842 did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. The Company will review for the existence of embedded leases in future agreements

 

In June 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718). This update is intended to reduce cost and complexity and to improve financial reporting for share-based payments issued to non-employees (for example, service providers, external legal counsel, suppliers, etc.). The ASU expands the scope of Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, which currently only includes share-based payments issued to employees, to also include share-based payments issued to non-employees for goods and services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to non-employees and employees will be substantially aligned. This standard will be effective for financial statements issued by public companies for the annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption of the standard is permitted. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company had $2,250 in revenues, a net loss of $410,259 and had net cash used in operations of $423,803. Additionally, as of March 31, 2019, the Company had working capital deficit, stockholders’ deficit and accumulated deficit of $456,727, $459,336 and $3,078 , 471, respectively. It is management’s opinion that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the date of the issuance of these financial statements.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

  

Successful completion of the Company’s development program and, ultimately, the attainment of profitable operations are dependent upon future events, including obtaining adequate financing to fulfill its development activities, acceptance of the Company’s patent applications and ultimately achieving a level of sales adequate to support the Company’s cost structure. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to secure additional equity investments or achieve an adequate sales level.

 

NOTE 4 - CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

 

In January 2019, the Company commenced an offering of up to $500,000 pursuant to which the Company will issue convertible notes to investors. On January 18, 2019 and February 5, 2019, the Company issued two such convertible notes payable to two investors for $100,000 and $130,000, respectively. The notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 10% per annum, computed based on a 360-day year and mature on the earlier of one year from the date of issuance or the consummation of an equity or equity-linked round of financing of the Company in excess of $1,000,000 (“Qualified Financing”) or other event pursuant to which conversion shares are to be issued pursuant to the terms of the note.

 

The notes are convertible into common stock of the Company following events on the following terms: with no action on the part of the note holder upon the consummation of a qualified financing, the debt will be converted to new round stock based on the product of the outstanding principal and accrued interest multiplied by 1.35 , then divided by the accrual per share price of the new round common stock. If a change of control occurs or if the Company completes a firmly underwritten public offering of its common stock prior to the qualified financing the notes would, at the election of the holders of a majority of the outstanding principal of the notes, be either payable on demand as of the closing of such change of control or Initial Public Offering (‘IPO”) or convertible into shares of common stock immediately prior to such change of control transaction or IPO transaction at a price per share equal to the lesser of the per share value of the common stock as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors or the per share consideration to be received by the holders of the common stock in such change of control or IPO transaction. Based on the terms of the conversion, the holders may receive a discount, and the notes are considered to have a contingent beneficial conversion feature. If conversion of the debt occurs, the Company will recognize an expense related to the intrinsic value. The Company recorded $4,216 of accrued interest and has a total outstanding principal balance of $230,000 as of March 31, 2019.

In the event that the Company consummates a financing prior to the Maturity Date, other than a Qualified Financing, and the economic terms thereof are more favorable to the investors in such financing than the terms of the Note, the Note shall automatically be amended to reflect such more favorable economic terms.

 

The Company recorded a total debt discount of $18,400 related to the above convertible notes. Amortization of the debt discount is recorded as interest expense and a total of $3,117 was amortized during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

 

NOTE 5 – OTHER LIABILITIES

 

In 2016, the Company recorded a liability in connection with the sale of two Electroencephalograms (“EEG”) machines as it provided a guarantee to the customer’s financing company (See Note 2). In June 2017, the customer defaulted on its payments and an additional $19,107 was booked as a liability and recognized as a loss on the sale of the assets for interest and some taxes related to the transaction. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, total liability to the financing company reflected in Other Liabilities is $11,138 and $12,549, respectively.

Options

 

On January 14, 2019, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of options to purchase an aggregate of 800,000 and 200,000 share of common stock to Boris Goldstein and Vadim Sakharov, respectively. The options have an exercise price of $0.75 per share which will vest over a 24-month period as follows: 25% (or 200,000 and 50,000, respectively) shall vest six months after the grant date with the remaining options will vest on a monthly basis at a rate of 1/24 th per month. The options will expire on January 14, 2029. The aggregate fair value of $17,111 was calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions: (i) expected life 10 years, (ii) volatility of 77%, (iii) risk free rate of 2.71% (iv) dividend rate of zero, (v) stock price of $0.042, and (vi) exercise price of $0.75.

NOTE 8 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Financial Advisory Agreement

 

On February 1, 2017, the Company entered into a one-year agreement with a third party to act as the Company’s exclusive financial advisor (the “Financial Advisor”). In consideration for services, the Company will pay a cash fee equal to 8% of the total amount of capital received by the Company from institutions and 10% of the total amount of capital received by the Company from retail. With the exception of the Bridge Private Placement Transaction, the Company will also pay a cash amount, representing a non-accountable expense allowance payable immediately upon closing of a financing equal to 3% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in the transactions from retail. In addition to the cash consideration, the Company will also issue warrants to purchase common stock to the Financial Advisor in an amount equal to 10% of the number of shares of common stock purchased by the investors and that the investors obtain a right to acquire through purchase, conversion or exercise of convertible securities issued by the Company. Those warrants will be immediately exercisable at the price per share at which the investor can acquire the common stock. On February 5, 2018, the agreement was amended to extend the exclusivity period another 12 months through February 1, 2019, all other terms and conditions of the agreement remained the same.

  

Operating Leases

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets as a right-of-use asset with a corresponding lease liability. Lessor accounting under the standard is substantially unchanged. Additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures are also required. The Company adopted the standard effective January 1, 2019 using the cumulative-effect adjustment transition method, which applies the provisions of the standard at the effective date without adjusting the comparative periods presented. The Company adopted the following practical expedients and elected the following accounting policies related to this standard update:

 

 

The option to not reassess prior conclusions related to the identification, classification and accounting for initial direct costs for leases that commenced prior to January 1, 2019.

 

 

Short-term lease accounting policy election allowing lessees to not recognize right-of-use assets and liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less.

The option to not separate lease and non-lease components for certain equipment lease asset categories such as freight car, vehicles and work equipment.

 

 

The package of practical expedients applied to all of its leases, including (i) not reassessing whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) not reassessing the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (iii) not reassessing initial direct costs for any existing leases.

 

As a result of the above, the adoption of ASC 842 did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. The Company will review for the existence of embedded leases in future agreements.

 

The Company has inventoried all leases where the Company is a lessee as of the initial date of application and has examined other contracts with suppliers, vendors, customers and other outside parties to identify whether such contracts contain an embedded lease as defined under the new guidance. The Company’s lease population comprises lease for corporate office space and a warehouse that are year-to-year basis with monthly rent ranging from approximately $1,320 to $5,000 and qualify under the practical expedient of short-term leases. The Company does not have exclusive rights of control to any assets in the customer and vendor contracts reviews and does not have any financing leases as of the date of adoption of ASC 842.

 

The Company conducts its operations from one office located in New York, NY. Beginning September 1, 2018, the Company entered into a six-month agreement from September 1, 2018 through February 28, 2019 at $1,598 per month. The Company continues to rent this location on a month to month basis at a rate of $1,700 per month. In March, the Company rented an additional office at this location at a rate of $1,700 per month.

 

Beginning September 1, 2018, the Company entered into a one-year lease agreement with a related party (see Note 6). The Company is paying the related party one half of the $3,000 monthly rent or $1,500 per month, plus expenses.

 

Additionally, the Company also rents a warehouse. Beginning December 1, 2018, the Company entered into a 6-month warehouse rental agreement for $2,980 per month.

 

Total rent expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was $22,060 and $20,312 respectively.

 

Equity Incentive Plan

 

As of September 21, 2018, the Company’s board of directors adopted, and stockholders approved the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (“the 2018 Plan”). The 2018 Plan has a 10-year term, which terminates on the day prior to the 10 th anniversary of its adoption by the Board. Under the 2018 Plan, the Company may grant equity-based incentive awards, including options, restricted stock, and other stock-based awards, to any directors, employees, advisers, and consultants that provide services to the Company. The vesting period, term and exercise price will be determined at the time of the grant. An aggregate of up to 3,500,000 of the Company’s common stock are reserved for issuance under the 2018 Plan. As of March 31, 2019, the Company has granted 1,800,000 options under the 2018 Plan (see Note 7).

 

NOTE 9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

In accordance with ASC 855 “Subsequent Events,” Company management reviewed all material events through the date this report was issued and the following subsequent events took place.

 

In April 2019, Nickolay Kukekov, a director of the Company, provided in the aggregate $55,000, in non-interest-bearing, no-term loans to the Company.

 

In April 2019, an affiliate of Boris Goldstein, the Company’s Chairman of the Board, provided $25,000, in a non-interest-bearing, no-term loan to the Company.

 

 

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

 

Forward Looking Statements

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements and related notes included in Item 1, “Financial Statements,” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Certain information contained in this MD&A includes “forward-looking statements.” Statements which are not historical reflect our current expectations and projections about our future results, performance, liquidity, financial condition and results of operations, prospects and opportunities and are based upon information currently available to us and our management and their interpretation of what is believed to be significant factors affecting our existing and proposed business, including many assumptions regarding future events. Actual results, performance, liquidity, financial condition and results of operations, prospects and opportunities could differ materially and perhaps substantially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements as a result of various risks, uncertainties and other factors, including those risks described in detail in the section entitled “Risk Factors” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Forward-looking statements, which involve assumptions and describe our future plans, strategies, and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of the words “may,” “should,” “would,” “will,” “could,” “scheduled,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “intend,” “seek,” or “project” or the negative of these words or other variations on these words or comparable terminology.

 

In light of these risks and uncertainties, and especially given the nature of our existing and proposed business, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements contained in this section and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K will in fact occur. Potential investors should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Except as expressly required by the federal securities laws, there is no undertaking to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances or any other reason.


Overview

 

We are a neurodiagnostic and predictive technology platform company seeking to provide a centralized platform for data acquisition and analysis of EEG data that combines cutting-edge medical device technologies with cloud-based telehealth services. Both our NeuroCap, a pre-gelled disposable EEG headset, and NeuroEEG, a full-montage standard encephalograph, received FDA clearance to market in 2018.

 

On September 21, 2018, we entered into a merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) with MemoryMD, Inc. and AFGG Acquisition Corp. to acquire MemoryMD, Inc. (the “Acquisition”). The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement were consummated on September 21, 2018 and, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, all outstanding shares of MemoryMD were exchanged for shares of our common stock. Accordingly, we acquired 100% of Memory MD, Inc. in exchange for the issuance of shares of our common stock and MemoryMD, Inc. became our wholly-owned subsidiary. We issued an additional 4,083,252 shares of our common stock upon the automatic conversion at the closing of an aggregate of $1,507,000 principal amount plus accrued interest of outstanding convertible promissory notes issued by MemoryMD Inc., and we further issued an additional 1,604,378 shares of our common stock upon the automatic conversion immediately subsequent to the closing of an aggregate of $640,000 principal amount plus accrued interest of outstanding convertible promissory notes issued by MemoryMD Inc.

 

As of immediately prior to the closing of the Acquisition, we entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Chromium 24 LLC, pursuant to which Chromium 24 LLC assumed all of our remaining assets and liabilities through the closing of the Acquisition. Accordingly, as of the closing of the Acquisition, we had no assets or liabilities.

 

Our sole business since the Acquisition is the business of MemoryMD. Our management's discussion and analysis below is based on the financial results of MemoryMD. Except as otherwise indicated herein, all share and per share information in this “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section gives retroactive effect to the exchange of MemoryMD Shares for shares of our common stock in the Acquisition. The following discussion and analysis provides information which we believe to be relevant to an assessment and understanding of the results of operations and financial condition of MemoryMD, Inc.

 

We have very limited resources. To date, our primary activities have been limited to, and our limited resources have been dedicated to, performing business and financial planning, raising capital, recruiting personnel, negotiating with business partners and the licensors of our intellectual property and conducting development activities. Our first product, the NeuroCap, is ready for commercialization and sale and we have commenced some initial sales. Our other products are still being tested or are still under development.

 

 

We have incurred losses since inception and had an accumulated deficit of $3,078,471 as of March 31, 2019, primarily as a result of expenses incurred in connection with our research and development programs and from general and administrative expenses associated with our operations and the Acquisition. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and increasing operating and net losses for the foreseeable future.

 

Historically, our primary source of cash has been proceeds from the sale of convertible promissory notes and other borrowings. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and the year ended December 31, 2018, we issued convertible promissory notes for aggregate gross proceeds of $230,000 and $1,059,500, respectively, to fund our operations. Additionally, we borrowed an  aggregate of $130,000 from Nickolay Kukekov, a director, in the quarter ended March 31, 2019 and through the date of filing of this Form 10-Q. Additionally, in April 2019 we borrowed $25,000 from an affiliate of Boris Goldstein, the Company’s Chairman of the Board.

 

We need to obtain substantial additional funding in connection with our continuing operations through public or private equity or debt financings or other sources, which may include collaborations with third parties. However, we may be unable to raise additional funds when needed on favorable terms or at all. Our failure to raise such capital as and when needed would have a negative impact on our financial condition and our ability to develop and commercialize our products and future products and our ability to pursue our business strategy. See “–Liquidity and Capital Requirements” below.

 

Financial Overview

 

Revenue

 

From inception to March 31, 2019, we have generated approximately $60,000 of revenue with respect to the sale of the NeuroCap, our first product. We do not expect to generate recurring, material revenue unless or until we successfully commercialize our products. If we fail to successfully commercialize our developed products or fail to complete the development of any other product candidate we may pursue in the future, in a timely manner, or fail to obtain regulatory approval, we may not be able to generate any further revenue.

 

General and Administrative

 

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs for personnel in functions not directly associated with research and development activities. Other significant costs include legal fees relating to corporate matters, intellectual property costs, professional fees for consultants assisting with regulatory, clinical, product development and financial matters, and product costs. We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will significantly increase in the future to support our continued research and development activities, commercialization of our products and the increased costs of operating as a public company. These increases will include increased costs related to the hiring of additional personnel and fees for legal and professional services, as well as other public-company related costs.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development expenses consist of expenses incurred in performing research and development activities in developing our products. Research and development expenses include compensation and benefits for research and development employees, overhead expenses, cost of laboratory supplies, clinical trial and related clinical manufacturing expenses, costs related to regulatory operations, fees paid to consultants, and other outside expenses. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and costs incurred by third parties are expensed as the contracted work is performed.

 

We expect our research and development expenses to remain substantially the same for the next six to nine months as we continue to develop and commercialize our products.  As we develop our cloud-based computing system, we expect our research and development expenses to significantly increase.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense primarily consists of amortized note issuance costs and interest costs related to the convertible notes we issued in 2019. The convertible notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 10% per annum.

Revenue

 

Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $2,250, compared to nil for the three months ended March 31, 2018 related to data analysis of the EEG software.  No related cost of goods sold was recorded. 

 

Research and development expenses

 

Research and development expenses were $22,290 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $36,906 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in development activities and a focus on growth of the operations of the Company.

 

Professional fees

 

Professional fees were $111,073 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $58,817 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase was primarily due to the costs associated with being a public company.

 

Sales and marketing expenses

 

Sales and marketing expenses were $47,792 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $18,461 in the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase was primarily due to a decrease in development activities and an increased focus on marketing and sales.

 

General and administrative expenses

 

General and administrative expenses were $201,241 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $142,836 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase during the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to an increase in salary expense of approximately $120,000 offset by a decrease in consulting fees of approximately $34,000 and a decrease in business development fees of approximately $30,000.

 

Interest expense

 

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $8,053, consisting of interest expense of $4,216 and amortization of debt issuance costs of $3,117 related to the Company’s convertible promissory notes totaling $230,000, as well as interest expense related to a lease of $720.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

While we have commenced generating revenue in 2018, we anticipate that we will continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future. We anticipate that our expenses will increase substantially as we develop our products and pursue pre-clinical testing and clinical trials, seek any further regulatory approvals, contract to manufacture any products, establish our own sales, marketing and distribution infrastructure to commercialize our products, hire additional staff, add operational, financial and management systems and operate as a public company.

 

 

Historically, our primary source of cash has been proceeds from the sale of convertible promissory notes. Through March 31, 2019, we sold an aggregate principal amount of approximately $2.4 million in multiple tranches of convertible promissory notes, of which $230,000 remains outstanding and unconverted. We have also from time to time issued shares of our common stock to individuals and entities as payment for services rendered to us in lieu of cash. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, Nickolay Kukekov, a director, provided a $75,000 non-interest-bearing, no-term loan to the Company. In April 2019, Mr. Kukekov provided an aggregate additional $55,000, in non-interest-bearing, no-term loans to the Company. Additionally, in April 2019, an affiliate of Boris Goldstein, the Company’s Chairman of the Board, provided $25,000, in a non-interest-bearing, no-term loan to the Company.

 

All of our then-outstanding convertible promissory notes, in the aggregate principal amount plus interest through September 21, 2018 of $2,275,050, converted into aggregate of 5,687,630 shares of our common stock upon or immediately after the closing of the Acquisition.

 

In connection with the private placement of the convertible promissory notes, we paid the placement agent a cash fee of $117,880, in addition to equity compensation in the form of common stock purchase warrants.

 

We have no current source of revenue to sustain our present activities, and we do not expect to generate material, recurring revenue until, and unless, we successfully commercialize our Products. Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial product revenue, we expect to finance our cash needs through a combination of equity and debt financings as well as collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements. We do not have any committed external source of funds. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interest of our stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect your rights as a common stockholder. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise additional funds through collaborations, strategic alliances or licensing arrangements with third-party partners, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings or through collaborations, strategic alliances or licensing arrangements when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our product development, future commercialization efforts, or grant rights to develop and market our technology that we would otherwise prefer to develop and market ourselves.

 

Our independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph in its report on our financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, noting the existence of substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. This uncertainty arose from management's review of our results of operations and financial condition and its conclusion that, based on our operating plans, we did not have sufficient existing working capital to sustain operations for a period of twelve months from the date of the issuance of these financial statements.

 

We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents, without raising additional funds or generating revenues, will be insufficient to fund our operating expenses for the foreseeable future. We need to raise additional capital to fund our operating expenses; however, we cannot give any assurance at this time that we will successfully raise all or some of such capital or any other capital.

 

In January 2019, we commenced a convertible note offering for up to $500,000, of which we have raised $230,000 through February 5, 2019. We are also seeking to obtain additional financing of up to approximately $1,000,000 through the issuance of our common stock, through other equity or debt financings or through collaborations or partnerships with other companies, which if successful will enable us to continue operations based on our current burn rate for at least another six to nine months. However, we may not be able to raise such additional capital on terms acceptable to us, or at all, and any failure to raise capital as and when needed could compromise our ability to execute on our business plan.

 

The development of our products is subject to numerous uncertainties, and we have based these estimates on assumptions that may prove to be substantially different than we currently anticipate and could use our cash resources sooner than we expect. Additionally, the process of developing medical devices is costly, and the timing of progress in pre-clinical tests and clinical trials is uncertain. Our ability to successfully transition to profitability will be dependent upon achieving a level of product sales adequate to support our cost structure. We cannot assure you that we will ever be profitable or generate positive cash flow from operating activities.

 

 

Net cash used in operating activities

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $423,803 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $241,446 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. This fluctuation is primarily due to an increase in net loss of approximately $97,000 along with a decrease in amortization of debt discount of approximately $16,000 and a decrease in the change in accounts payable of approximately $38,000.

 

Net cash used in investing activities

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $1,005 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase is due to the purchase of fixed assets.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $305,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, which consisted of the sale of the Company’s convertible promissory notes for aggregate gross proceeds of $230,000 as well as proceeds from a related party loan of $75,000.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $58,868 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, which primarily consisted of the sale of the Company’s convertible promissory notes for aggregate gross proceeds of $43,120, along with proceeds from related party loans of $50,000 offset by the payment of related party loans in the amount of $34,252.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

 

Our management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of the balance sheets and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. In accordance with GAAP, we base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances at the time such estimates are made. Actual results may differ materially from our estimates and judgments under different assumptions or conditions. We periodically review our estimates in light of changes in circumstances, facts and experience. The effects of material revisions in estimates are reflected in our financial statements prospectively from the date of the change in estimate.

 

While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in the notes to our financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Report, we believe the following are the critical accounting policies used in the preparation of our financial statements that require significant estimates and judgments.

 

Use of Estimates:  The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the estimates of useful lives for depreciation.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments:  Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants. A fair value hierarchy has been established for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

 

 

Level 1 Inputs - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 Inputs - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as interest rates, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.) or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market data by correlation or other means.

 

Level 3 Inputs - Unobservable inputs for determining the fair values of assets or liabilities that reflect an entity's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.

 

 

Financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and borrowings. The fair value of current financial assets and current financial liabilities approximates their carrying value because of the short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

  

Income Taxes.  The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, as required by the accounting standard for income taxes, ASC 740. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis, as well as net operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

Stock Based Compensation.  The Company accounts for the grant of restricted stock awards in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation.” ASC 718 requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of equity based compensation. The expense is recognized over the period during which the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the compensation.  Any remaining unrecognized balance will be recognized ratably over the life of the vesting period and is a reduction of stockholders' equity.

 

The Company accounts for non-employee share-based awards in accordance with the measurement and recognition criteria of ASC 505-50 “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees.”

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), as amended, which supersedes all existing revenue recognition requirements, including most industry-specific guidance. The new standard requires a company to recognize revenue when it transfers goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive for those goods or services. The standard will be effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company has adopted Topic 606 with no material effect on its financial statements.

 

In November 2016, FASB issue ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) Restricted Cash (ASU 2016-18), requiring restricted cash and cash equivalents to be included with cash and cash equivalents of the statement of cash flows. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within that year, beginning December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this new ASU at January 1, 2018 and it has had no material impact on its financial statements

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard requires that all lessees recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases on the balance sheet and disclose qualitative and quantitative information about its leasing arrangements. The new standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the method of adoption and the potential impact that this standard may have on its financial position and results of operations.

 

In June 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718). This update is intended to reduce cost and complexity and to improve financial reporting for share-based payments issued to non-employees (for example, service providers, external legal counsel, suppliers, etc.). The ASU expands the scope of Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, which currently only includes share-based payments issued to employees, to also include share-based payments issued to non-employees for goods and services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to non-employees and employees will be substantially aligned. This standard will be effective for financial statements issued by public companies for the annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption of the standard is permitted. The adoption of this ASU had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Not applicable for smaller reporting companies.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures .

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, management of the Company, under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, reviewed and performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2019. Based on that review and evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, along with the management of the Company, have determined that as of March 31, 2019, the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Specifically, we have identified the following material weakness in our disclosure controls: insufficient written policies and procedures to ensure timely filing of reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, identified in connection with the evaluation of such internal control that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

 

 

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
