All written and oral forward-looking statements made subsequent to the date of this report and attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by this section.

 

ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

OVERVIEW

 

COMPANY HISTORY AND OVERVIEW

 

Manhattan Scientifics, Inc. (the “Company” or “Manhattan Scientifics”), a Delaware corporation, was established on July 31, 1992 and has one operating wholly-owned subsidiary: Metallicum, Inc., (“Metallicum”). The Company also holds a 5%, noncontrolling interest in Imagion Biosystems, Inc. (f/k/a Senior Scientific LLC) (“Imagion”).Manhattan Scientifics is focused on technology transfer and commercialization of these transformative technologies.

 

Manhattan Scientifics, Inc. is focused on technology transfer and commercialization of these transformative technologies. The Company operates as a technology incubator that seeks to acquire, develop and commercialize life-enhancing technologies in various fields To achieve this goal, the Company continues to identify emerging technologies through strategic alliances with scientific laboratories, educational institutions, scientists and leaders in industry and government. The Company and its executives have a long-standing relationship with Los Alamos Laboratories in New Mexico.

 

In June 2008, we acquired Metallicum and its licensed patented technology. In January 2009, Metallicum was granted an exclusive license by The Los Alamos National Laboratory on patents related to nanostructured metals.

 

On May 31, 2011, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization to acquire Senior Scientific. The total purchase price was 21,668,000 restricted shares of our common stock (less 7,667,000 shares previously issued pursuant to an option agreement). As a result of this acquisition, Senior Scientific owned patented technologies that can use biosafe nanoparticles and sensitive magnetic sensors to detect and measure cancer cells in biopsies or in the human body with the potential to transform how cancer is detected and treated. On November 17, 2016, Senior Scientific merged with and into Imagion, a Nevada company. Following the merger, Imagion held all of the liabilities, obligations and assets of Senior Scientific and the Company continued as the sole equity holder of Imagion. On June 30, 2017, Imagion completed its initial public offering and listing on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX).As of December 31, 2020, the Company owns 53,516,508 shares of Imagion (1,000,000 restricted shares), now resulting in a noncontrolling interest of approximately 5% of Imagion’s issued and outstanding common stock decreased primarily as a result of dilutive issuances by Imagion. Based upon Imagion’s latest trading price of approximately $0.11 per share, the fair value of the Imagion shares is approximately $5,875,000.

 

OUR DEVELOPMENT MODEL

 

Our goal has been to influence the future through the development of potentially life changing technologies. Our business model is to: (i) identify significant technologies, (ii) acquire them or the rights to them, (iii) secure the services of inventors, engineers or other staff who were instrumental in their creation, (iv) provide or contract for suitable work facilities, laboratories, and other aids where appropriate, (v) prototype the technologies to demonstrate "proof of principle" feasibility, (vi) secure patent and or other intellectual property protection, (vii) secure early customers for product trials where feasible and appropriate, and (viii) commercialize through licenses, sales or cooperative efforts with other manufacturing and distribution firms.

 

Since our technologies are still in their development phase, the need for operating and acquisition capital is a continuous concern requiring the ongoing efforts of our management. The Company’s success will depend in part on its ability to obtain patents and license rights, maintain trade secrets, and operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of others, both in the United States and other countries. There can be no assurance that patents issued to or licensed by the Company will not be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or that the rights granted thereunder will provide proprietary protection or competitive advantages to the Company.

Table of Contents

 

We utilize the intellectual property sale/licensing model, and not a production model, though management is opportunistic and is open to explore all methods leading to commercializing our technologies. We intend to consider all appropriate avenues for the commercialization of our technologies.

 

The Company is not engaged in the business of investing, reinvesting, or trading in securities. The Company has not sold some of its investments on the open market.

 

DESCRIPTION OF TECHNOLOGIES

 

ADVANCED METALS

 

Our business model is based on licensing metals technology to metals manufacturers. Although competing commercial products are provided by existing specialty metals companies, the only competing processes for creating nanostructured metals are either limited or cannot be economically scaled. Metallicum does not yet face direct competition, but expects competition will emerge as the metal is commercialized.

 

In January 2009, we entered into a patent license agreement with Los Alamos National Security, LLC for the exclusive licensing use of certain technology relating to the manufacture and application of nanostructuring metals and alloys. Pursuant to such agreement we provided a non-refundable fee and 2,000,000 shares of our common stock with a fair market value of $33,000. Additionally, we are required to pay an annual license fee of $10,000 starting in February 2010 and royalties on future net sales.

 

The nanostructured metals technology may have wide implications for use in the medical device and prosthetics industries including dental implants, replacements for hips, shoulders, knees and cardio vascular stents. In December 2008, a manufacturing joint venture partner in Albuquerque, NM received U.S. Food and Drug Administration 510(k) clearance to market nanostructured titanium metal dental implants using our technology. This clearance positions us closer to our goal of commercializing our technology for nanostructured metals. We are in talks with many of the key manufacturers of dental implants and have signed material testing agreements with several manufacturers.

 

In September 2009, the Company entered into a contract with Carpenter to sell certain nanostructured metal technologies acquired from Metallicum, its wholly owned subsidiary, to Carpenter and to provide sub-license rights to Carpenter covering license agreements that the Company has from Los Alamos Laboratories. In January 2013, the Company entered into a licensing agreement with a party granting certain licensing rights to the Company's nanostructured metal technology. On February 11, 2015, the Company and Carpenter entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release pursuant to which the parties provided a full release of one another, Carpenter paid the Company $8,000,000, Carpenter transferred to the Company all intellectual and physical property that was part of the original agreement, Carpenter agreed to provide follow-up technical assistance and Carpenter provided a list of all customers and contacts. Following the return of the Company’s nanostructured metal technology, the Company has commenced exploring strategic alternatives for its Metallicum division. At this time we are exploring and working with partner companies in the fields of titanium dental implants, titanium and magnesium medical devices, high voltage aluminum conductors as well as oil and gas field applications.

 

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY / RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

 

In June 2008, we acquired Metallicum and its licensed rights to patented technology. The technology is comprised of three US Patents (US Patent numbers 7152448, 6197129 and 6399215) for which Metallicum (subsequently, Manhattan) had been assigned an exclusive license rights by Los Alamos National Security LLC (LANL). Under the license rights, Metallicum had all rights, title and interest throughout the world in and to any and all inventions, original works of authorship, developments, concepts, know-how, and improvements on the patents or trade secrets whether or not patentable or registerable under copyright or similar laws. The purchase price paid for these licenses was $305,000, which represents its fair value. The Company obtained an exclusive license on two patents and a non-exclusive license on the third patent. The value attributable to license agreements is being amortized over the period of its estimated benefit period of 10 years.

 

Our ability to compete depends in part on the protection of and our ability to defend our proprietary technology and on the goodwill associated with our trade names, service marks and other proprietary rights. However, we do not know if current laws will provide us with sufficient enough protection that others will not develop technologies similar or superior to ours, or that third parties will not copy or otherwise obtain or use our technologies without our authorization.

 

The success of our business will depend, in part, to identify technology, obtain patents, protect and enforce patents once issued and operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of others. Our success will also depend on our ability to maintain exclusive rights to trade secrets and proprietary technology we own are currently developing and will develop. We can give no assurance that any issued patents will provide us with competitive advantages or will not be challenged by others, or that the patents of others will not restrict our ability to conduct business.

 

In addition, we rely on certain technology licensed with a perpetual term from the Los Alamos National Laboratory and may be required to license additional technologies in the future. We do not know if these third-party licenses will be available or will continue to be available to us on acceptable commercial terms or at all. The inability to enter into and maintain any of these licenses could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of our operations.

Policing unauthorized use of our proprietary technology and other intellectual property rights could entail significant expense. In addition, we do not know if third parties will bring claims of copyright or trademark infringement against us or claim that our use of certain technologies violates a patent or other intellectual property. Any claims of infringement, with or without merit, could be time consuming and expensive to defend, result in costly litigation, divert management attention, require us to enter into costly royalty or licensing arrangements or prevent us from using important technologies or methods, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of our operations.

 

SALES AND MARKETING

 

Although our technologies presently are in the development stage, we are engaged in an early commercialization program intended to facilitate the transition from development to licensing, manufacturing and/or sale. This program consists of preliminary dialogues with potential strategic partners, investors, manufacturers, potential licensees and/or purchasers.

 

COMPETITION

 

As a result of our licensed technology, we do not have any direct competitors in our advanced materials operations. We may, however, face competition from leading researchers and manufacturers worldwide that develop competing technology.

 

With respect to our nanomedicine technology, our cancer detection technology will face competition primarily from companies such as Abbott Laboratories Inc., Cepheid Inc., Philips, GE Healthcare, Siemens, Gen-Probe Incorporated, MDxHealth SA, EpiGenomics AG, Roche Diagnostics and Sequenom, Inc.

 

Competitors may successfully challenge our licensed technology, produce similar products that do not infringe our licensed technology or produce products in countries where we have not applied for intellectual property protection. Many of these competitors may have longer operating histories and significantly greater financial, marketing and other resources than we have. Furthermore, competitors may introduce new products that address our potential markets. Competition could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of our operations.

 

The markets in which we compete are highly competitive and constantly evolving. We believe that the principal competitive factors in our technology markets include without limitation:

  

·

capitalization;

·

cost of product;

·

first to market with product in market segment;

·

strong intellectual portfolio;

·

product reliability;

·

strong customer base; and

·

strong manufacturing and supplier relationships.

 

CUSTOMERS AND SUPPLIERS

 

For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, one and two customers generated all of our revenue. We did not have any significant suppliers.

 

EMPLOYEES

 

As of December 31, 2020, we had no full-time employees. We do not expect any significant change in the total number of employees in the near future. Most of our research and development work has been performed by employees of our various research and development independent contractors (see below). We have historically indirectly funded the salaries of these individuals through our contract research and development payments to their employers. Although not technically our employees, we have considered these individuals to be an integral part of our research and development team. None of our employees or contractors are members of any union or collective bargaining organization. We consider our relationships with independent contractor employees to be good.

 

As noted above, a significant portion of our research and development has been performed by independent contractors from whom we acquired or licensed certain technologies, and their various employees. Our independent contractors utilize a number of their own various employees to satisfy their research and development obligations to us, and their employees are considered to be part of our research and development team.

 

The Company’s officer and its directors spend substantially all of their time managing the Company’s business of developing and licensing its intellectual property in the metals industry.

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Incentive Plans

 

The 2000 Plan is administered by a committee of two or more members of the Board of Directors or, if no committee is appointed, then by the Board of Directors. The 2000 Plan allows for the issuance of incentive stock options (which, pursuant to Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, can only be granted to employees), non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, or stock bonuses. The committee, or the Board of Directors if there is no committee, determines the type of option granted, the exercise price, the option term, which may be no more than ten years, terms and conditions of exercisability and methods of exercise. Options must vest within ten-years. Under the 2000 Plan, the exercise price may not be less than fair market value on the date of grant for the incentive stock options. The 2000 Plan also allows for the granting of Stock Appreciation Rights. No Stock Appreciation Rights have been granted. The number of shares under the 2000 Plan available for grant at December 31, 2020 was 18,869,763.

 

In November 2004, our Board of Directors adopted the 2004 Consultant Stock Plan (the "2004 Plan"). The purpose of this 2004 Consultant Stock Plan is to advance our interests by helping us obtain and retain the services of persons providing consulting services upon whose judgment, initiative, efforts and/or services we are substantially dependent, by offering to or providing those persons with incentives or inducements affording such persons an opportunity to become owners of our capital stock. We reserved 2,000,000 shares of our Common Stock for awards to be made under the 2004 Plan. We filed a registration statement on Form S-8 with the SEC on November 26, 2004 to register the shares underlying the 2004 plan. The 2004 Plan is administered by a committee of two or more members of the Board of Directors or, if no committee is appointed, then by the Board of Directors. The committee or the Board of Directors if there is no committee, determines who is eligible to receive awards under the plan, grant awards and interpret the 2004 Plan. The number of shares under the 2004 Plan available for grant at December 31, 2020 was 500,000.

 

On May 9, 2005, our Board of Directors adopted the 2005 Equity Compensation Plan (the "2005 Plan"). The purpose of this Plan is to provide incentives to attract, retain and motivate eligible persons whose present and potential contributions are important to our success, by offering them an opportunity to participate in the our future performance through awards of Options, the right to purchase Common Stock and Stock Bonuses. We reserved 10,000,000 shares of our Common Stock for awards to be made under the 2005 Plan. The 2005 Plan is administered by a committee of two or more members of the Board of Directors or, if no committee is appointed, then by the Board of Directors. The committee, or the Board of Directors if there is no committee, determines who is eligible to receive awards under the plan, grant awards and interpret the 2005 Plan. We filed a registration statement on Form S-8 with the SEC on June 8, 2005 to register the shares underlying the 2005 plan. The number of shares under the 2006 Plan available for grant at December 31, 2020 was -0-.

 

In January 2015, our Board of Directors adopted the 2015 Incentive Stock Plan (the "2015 Plan"). The purpose of this Plan is to provide incentive stock options (which, pursuant to Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, can only be granted to employees), non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, or stock bonuses. The committee, or the Board of Directors if there is no committee, determines the type of option granted, the exercise price, the option term, which may be no more than ten years, terms and conditions of exercisability and methods of exercise. Options must vest within ten-years. Under the 2015 Plan, the exercise price may not be less than fair market value on the date of grant for the incentive stock options. The 2015 Plan also allows for the granting of Stock Appreciation Rights. No Stock Appreciation Rights have been granted.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and accompanying notes appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K.

 

OVERVIEW

 

Manhattan Scientifics, Inc. (the “Company” or “Manhattan Scientifics”), a Delaware corporation, was established on July 31, 1992 and has one operating wholly-owned subsidiary: Metallicum, Inc., (“Metallicum”). Manhattan Scientifics is focused on technology transfer and commercialization of these transformative technologies.

 

The Company operates as a technology incubator that seeks to acquire, develop and commercialize life-enhancing technologies in various fields, with emphasis in the areas of nanotechnology. Nanotechnology is the use and manipulation of matter on an atomic and molecular scale. To achieve this goal, the Company is actively seeking to identify emerging technologies through strategic alliances with scientific laboratories, educational institutions, scientists and leaders in industry and government. The Company and its executives have a long-standing relationship with Los Alamos Laboratories in New Mexico.

Metallicum

 

In June 2008, we acquired Metallicum and its licensed patented technology. We entered into a stock purchase agreement with Metallicum to acquire all of the outstanding capital in exchange for 15,000,000 restricted shares of our common stock. An additional 15,000,000 shares of our common stock will be payable to Metallicum in the event of meeting certain milestones. On December 31, 2011, one milestone was met. Metallicum was granted an exclusive license by The Los Alamos National Laboratory on patents related to nanostructured metals. In September 2009, we entered into a technology transfer agreement and sale with Carpenter Technology Corporation, (“Carpenter”) wherein Carpenter was to fully develop, manufacture and market a new class of high strength metals. On February 11, 2015, the Company and Carpenter entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release pursuant to which the parties provided a full release of one another, Carpenter paid the Company $8,000,000, Carpenter transferred to the Company all intellectual and physical property that was part of the original agreement, Carpenter agreed to provide follow-on technical assistance and Carpenter provided a list of all customers and contacts.

 

On May 1, 2019, Manhattan Scientifics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Metallicum, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an Overarching Agreement with a non-affiliated third party (“Third Party”), providing for an exclusive license by the Company of its ECAP technology to the Third Party for a term of 17 years unless terminated sooner, a sublicense by the Company to the Third Party of its rights under that certain Exclusive Field-of-Use Patent License Agreement dated January 5, 2009 entered with The Los Alamos National Laboratory for a term until the expiration of the last valid claim to expire of the patents pursuant to such agreement and the sale by the Company of ECAP-C machines to the Third party. As part of the above license agreements, the Company will receive royalty payments, including minimum payments, based on a percentage of the Third Party’s sales. The Company anticipates royalty income as the nanotitanium is commercialized for use in medial prosthetics.Royalties will be 10% on sales of licensed dental products and an average of 5% in all other sales of licensed products. We expect to start earning royalties in 2021.

 

Imagion

 

On May 31, 2011, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization to acquire Senior Scientific. The total purchase price was 21,668,000 restricted shares of our common stock (less 7,667,000 shares previously issued pursuant to an option agreement). As a result of this acquisition, Senior Scientific owned patented technologies that can use biosafe nanoparticles and sensitive magnetic sensors to detect and measure cancer cells in biopsies or in the human body with the potential to transform how cancer is detected and treated. On November 17, 2016, Senior Scientific merged with and into Imagion, a Nevada company.Following the merger, Imagion held all of the liabilities, obligations and assets of Senior Scientific and the Company continued as the sole equity holder of Imagion. On November 29, 2016, the Company announced a plan to have Imagion pursue an IPO and listing on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX).

 

As of December 31, 2020, Manhattan Scientifics presently owns 53,516,508 shares of Imagion, with a fair market value of approximately $5,875,000, based upon the closing price per share of Imagion common stock on the Australian Stock Exchange. The Company accounts for its investment in Imagion in accordance with ASC 825-10 and elected fair value option. We initially held 31% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Imagion and had one seat on the Board of Directors of Imagion. The guidance allows entities to elect to measure certain financial assets and financial liabilities (as well as certain nonfinancial instruments that are similar to financial instruments) at fair value. Investments over which an investor has the ability to exercise significant influence are eligible for the fair value option as they represent recognized financial assets. When the fair value option is elected for an instrument, all subsequent changes in fair value for that instrument are reported in earnings. As of December 31, 2020, we hold approximately 5% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Imagion and no longer have a seat on the Board of Directors of Imagion.

 

Novint

 

We made an investment in Novint Technologies Inc. (“Novint”) in 2001. Novint is currently engaged in the development and sale of 3D haptics products and equipment. Haptics refers to one’s sense of touch and Novint’s focus is in the consumer interactive computer gaming market. The Company owns 1,028,425 shares of Novint’s common stock.The fair value of the Novint shares are not recorded on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2020.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2019

 

REVENUES. In the year ended December 31, 2020, we recognized $50,000 in revenue compared to $97,000 of revenue recognized for the year ended December 31, 2019. The decrease is attributable to services performed and completed in the year of 2019.

 

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses consist of consultants, contractors, accounting, legal, travel, rent, telephone and other day-to-day operating expenses. General and administrative expenses were $714,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared with $1,114,000 for the year ended December 31, 2019. The primary decrease in general and administrative expense was the result of the decrease in stock-based compensation and legal expenses.

 

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expenses consist of consultants and contractors. Research and development expenses were $11,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared with $8,000 for the year ended December 31, 2019.

OTHER INCOME AND (EXPENSES). Total other income for the year ended December 31, 2020 totaled $4,989,000, compared to the other expenses (loss) of $197,000 for the year ended December 31, 2019. This is primarily attributable to the gain on fair value adjustments of its investment in Imagion and offset in part by an increase in interest expense.

 

INCOME (LOSS). As of the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company has a net income of $4,314,000, compared to the net loss of $1,222,000 for the year ended December 31, 2019. This is primarily attributable to the gain on fair value adjustment of investment in Imagion and a decrease in general and administrative expenses, offset in part by a decrease in revenues and an increase in interest expense.

  

LIQUIDITY AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS

 

Stockholders’ equity totaled $4,674,000 on December 31, 2020 and the working capital deficit was $(347,000) on such date. We had an increase of $92,000 in cash and cash equivalents for the year ended December 31, 2020.

 

Based upon current projections, our principal cash requirements for the next 12 months consists of (1) fixed expenses, including payroll, and professional services and (2) variable expenses, including technology research and development, milestone payments and intellectual property protection, and additional scientific consultants. As of December 31, 2020, we had $353,000 in cash. We believe our current cash position may not sufficient to maintain our operations for the next twelve months. Accordingly, we may need to engage in equity or debt financings to secure additional funds. If we raise additional funds through future issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock. Any debt financing that we secure in the future could involve restrictive covenants relating to our capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to continue to support our business growth and to respond to business challenges could be impaired, and our business may be harmed.

 

On October 17, 2019, we executed a secured note with our only independent director for $100,000 and a secured note with an unrelated party for $50,000. The secured notes are due on October 17, 2022. The Company agreed that the notes bear interest at 10% per annum, to be paid in advance with shares of Imagion Biosystems Limited common stock (“IBX”), calculated at $0.015 per share or 3,000,000 shares of IBX. We currently do not plan any further sale of transfer of IBX common stock to raise funds for operations. To fund operations, we plan on relying on payments of $600,000, to be collected during the next two years in equal increments from the sale of assets in 2019 and future royalties from the Metallicum license.

 

CASH FLOW INFORMATION

 

The Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $353,000 and $261,000 at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. This represents an increase in cash of $92,000.

 

OPERATING ACTIVITIES

 

The Company used approximately $388,000 of cash for operating activities in the year ended December 31, 2020 as compared to using $316,000 of cash for operating activities in the year ended December 31, 2019. The reason for the increase in cash used for operating activities is a lower increase in current liabilities partially offset by a lower net loss after adjustment for non-cash items.

 

INVESTING ACTIVITIES

 

The Company received approximately $480,000 of cash for investing activities in the year ended December 31, 2020 as compared to receiving $340,000 of cash for investing activities in the year ended December 31, 2019. This increase in cash received in investing activities, is primarily attributed to proceeds from sale of investment of Imagion Biosystems shares and the collection of proceeds from the sale of assets.

  

FINANCING ACTIVITIES

 

The Company received $0 of cash for financing activities in the year ended December 31, 2020 as compared to receiving $150,000 of cash for financing activities in the year ended December 31, 2019. This decrease in cash received in financing activities, is primarily attributed to cash proceeds from notes payables in the year of 2019.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

 
12

Table of Contents

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amount of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. A significant estimate includes the carrying value of our patents, fair value of our common stock, assumptions used in calculating the value of stock options, depreciation and amortization.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets:

 

We assess the impairment of our long-lived assets periodically in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FAS") Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 10. Whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable, we will compare undiscounted net cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets to the carrying amount of those assets. When these undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amounts of the assets, we will record impairment losses to write the asset down to fair value, measured by the discounted estimated net future cash flows expected to be generated from the assets. To date there has been no impairment.

 

License Agreements

 

In 2008, the Company obtained licenses to the rights of certain patents regarding nano-structured materials developed by another company as a result of the acquisition of Metallicum. The purchase price paid for these licenses was $305,000, which represents its fair value. The Company obtained an exclusive license on two patents and a non-exclusive license on the third patent. The value attributable to license agreements is being amortized over the period of its estimated benefit period of 10 years. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company may be required to pay royalties, as defined, to the licensors.

 

In 2009, the Company entered into a patent license agreement with Los Alamos National Security LLC for the exclusive use of certain technology relating to the manufacture and application of nanostructuring metals and alloys. The value attributable to license agreements is being amortized over the period of its estimated benefit period of 10 years. Under the terms of the agreement the Company is required to pay an annual license fee of $10,000 and, may be required to pay royalties, as defined, to the licensors.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as outlined in the Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue From Contracts with Customers, which consists of five steps to evaluating contracts with customers for revenue recognition: (i) identify the contract with the customer; (ii) identity the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price; and (v) recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfied a performance obligation.

 

Revenue recognition occurs at the time we satisfy a performance obligation to our customers, when control transfers to customers, provided there are no material remaining performance obligations required of the Company or any matters of customer acceptance. We only record revenue when collectability is probable.

 

Investment in Equity Securities:

 

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company elected fair value option for its investment in Imagion Biosystems, Inc. a Nevada company (“Imagion”) based on triggering event of dilution of ownership, which lead to the deconsolidation of Imagion. Investments in Imagion are measured at fair value as opposed to equity method based on ASC 825-10. The guidance allows entities to elect to measure certain financial assets and financial liabilities (as well as certain nonfinancial instruments that are similar to financial instruments) at fair value. Investments over which an investor has the ability to exercise significant influence are eligible for the fair value option as they represent recognized financial assets. When the fair value option is elected for an instrument, all subsequent changes in fair value for that instrument are reported in earnings.

 

As of December 31, 2020, the Company holds approximately 5% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Imagion and is reported under fair value method under ASC 320. Management determined that it was appropriate to carry its investment in Imagion at fair value because the investment is traded on the Australian stock exchange and has daily trading activity and is a better indicator of value. The investments are re-measured at the end of each quarter based on the trading price and converted from AUD to USD. Any change in the value is reported on the income statement as an unrealized gain or loss.

 

Stock-Based Compensation:

 

In June 2018, FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718),Improvements to Nonemployee Share Based Payment Accounting. The amendments in this Update expand the scope of stock compensation to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The guidance in this Update does not apply to transactions involving equity instruments granted to a lender or investor that provides financing to the issuer. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2018 including interim periods within the fiscal year. The Company adopted with an effective date of January 1, 2019. Upon adoption, there was no material impact to the financial statements.

Table of Contents

 

Due from the Sale of Assets:

 

Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if it is highly probably that they will be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use.

 

Immediately before classification as held for sale, the assets are remeasured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Any impairment loss on initial classification as held for sale and subsequent gains and losses on remeasurement are recognized in profit or loss.Gains are not recognized in excess of any cumulative impairment loss.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company sold the assets held for sale that were presented on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2018. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded impairment and adjusted the asset valuation to $1.2 million. On May 1, 2020, the Company received $300,000 for sale of assets for a total of$1.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2019.The remaining $600,000 will be collected during the next two years in equal increments on the anniversary date of the agreement, May 1.As of December 31, 2020, the Company evaluated the collectability and determined that no allowance is needed at this time due to the payment history with this third party and the subsequent receipt of funds.

 

Fair Value Measurements:

 

The Company recognized the fair value of financial instruments in accordance with FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, “Fair Value Measurements”, which provides a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The standard also expands disclosures about instruments measured at fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets;

Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

Level 3 — Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

 

We have not entered into any 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 and would be considered material to investors.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Manhattan Scientifics, Inc.:

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Manhattan Scientifics, Inc. ("the Company") as of December 31, 2020, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2020 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Explanatory Paragraph Regarding Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit,  negative cash flows from operations, and negative working capital, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audit.  We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks.  Such procedures included examining on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. 

 

Critical Audit Matters

 

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) related to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgements. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

  

Going Concern

 

Critical Audit Matter Description

 

As described further in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit, has negative cash flows from operations, and negative working capital. Accordingly, the Company has determined that these factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain sufficient capital contributions, financing and/or generate revenues. Management plans to address the concerns as needed by securing additional funding and currently retains consultants for that purpose. Management has concluded that these plans do not alleviate the substantial doubt related to its ability to continue as a going concern.

  

We determined the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is a critical audit matter due to the estimation and uncertainty regarding the Company’s available capital and the risk of bias in management’s judgments and assumptions in their determination.

 

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

 

Our audit procedures related to the following:

 

 

·

We performed testing procedures such as analytical procedures to identify conditions and events that indicate there could be substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

 

 

 

 

·

We reviewed and evaluated management's plans for dealing with adverse effect of these conditions and events.

 

 

 

 

·

We inquired of Company management and reviewed company records to assess whether there are additional factors that contribute to the uncertainties disclosed.

 

 

 

 

·

We assessed whether the Company’s determination that there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern was adequately disclosed.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2020 AND 2019

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

 

Manhattan Scientifics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (formerly Grand Enterprises, Inc) (“Grand”) was established on July 31, 1992 and has a wholly-owned subsidiary: Metallicum, Inc. (“Metallicum”). On June 12, 2008, the Company acquired Metallicum, Inc, for 15,000,000 shares of Company’s common stock, Manhattan Scientifics, Inc., operates as a technology incubator that seeks to acquire, develop and commercialize life-enhancing technologies in various fields, with emphasis in the areas of nano-technologies and nano-medicine. In this capacity, the Company continues to identify emerging technologies through strategic alliances with scientific laboratories, educational institutions, and scientists and leaders in industry and government. The Company has a long standing relationship with Los Alamos Laboratories in New Mexico. During 2008, the Company refocused its efforts from the development of its fuel cell technologies to its current focus on the development of nanomaterials through the acquisition of Metallicum.

 

Metallicum is a nanotechnology start-up company located in Colorado. Metallicum Inc. has focused on the development and manufacture of nanostructured metals for medical implants and other applications. Metallicum intends to establish manufacturing partner relationships with major Fortune 500 metals companies and strategic partnering with significant customers in the medical device & prosthetics industries as well as in auto, truck, & aircraft manufacturing industries. Metallicum’s initial products include nanostructured bulk metals and alloys in the form of rod, bar, wire and foil. The Company conducts its operations primarily in the United States.

 

Manhattan Scientifics purchased Metallicum to acquire its licensed rights to patented technology. The technology is comprised of three US Patents (US Patent numbers 7152448, 6197129 and 6399215) for which Metallicum (subsequently, Manhattan) had been assigned an exclusive license rights by Los Alamos National Security LLC (LANL). Under the license rights, Metallicum had all rights, title and interest throughout the world in and to any and all inventions, original works of authorship, developments, concepts, know-how, and improvements on the patents or trade secrets whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar laws.

 

In January 2009, the Company entered into a patent license agreement with Los Alamos National Security, LLC for the exclusive licensing use of certain technology relating to the manufacture and application of nanostructuring metals and alloys. Pursuant to such agreement the Company provided a non-refundable fee and 2,000,000 shares of common stock. Additionally, the Company is required to pay an annual license fee which started in February 2010 and royalties on future net sales.

 

In September 2009, the Company entered into a technology transfer agreement with Carpenter Technologies Corporation (“Carpenter”). Wherein Carpenter will fully develop, manufacture and market a new class of high strength metals under an exclusive technology transfer agreement from Manhattan Scientifics and the Los Alamos National Laboratory. The proprietary process will enable super-strength metals and alloys to make products that weigh far less than in the past and without significant cost premiums.  On February 11, 2015, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Releases (the "Settlement Agreement") with Carpenter Technology Corporation related to the agreement discussed in Note 7, pursuant to which the parties settled and released each other from any and all liabilities and claims related to the Carpenter Agreements. 

 

On November 17, 2016, Senior Scientific merged with and into Imagion Biosystems, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Imagion”). Following the merger, Imagion held all of the liabilities, obligations and assets of Senior Scientific and the Company continued as the sole equity holder of Imagion.  On June 30, 2017, Imagion completed an IPO and listing on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX).  As of December 31, 2020 , the Company owns 53,516,508 shares (1,000,000 restricted shares related to issued promissory notes interest) of Imagion, resulting in a noncontrolling interest of approximately 5% of Imagion’s issued and outstanding common stock.  The Company elected to record the investment at fair value.

 

Manhattan Scientifics success will depend in part on its ability to obtain patents and product license rights, maintain trade secrets, and operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of others, both in the United States and other countries. There can be no assurance that patents issued to or licensed by the Company will not be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or that the rights granted thereunder will provide proprietary protection or competitive advantages to the Company.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2020 AND 2019

    

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RELATED MATTERS

 

BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION:

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Manhattan Scientific, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary Metallicum. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

GOING CONCERN:

 

As of December 31, 2020, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $(64,881,000) and negative working capital of $347,000. Because of these conditions, the Company will require additional working capital to develop business operations. The Company intends to raise additional working capital through the continued licensing of its technology as well as to generate revenues for other services. There are no assurances that the Company will be able to achieve the level of revenues adequate to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to support the Company’s working capital requirements. To the extent that funds generated are insufficient, the Company will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on terms acceptable to the Company. If adequate working capital is not available, the Company may not continue its operations.

 

As of the filing date, the Coronavirus (“COVID-19”) has caused significant volatility in global markets, including the market price of our securities. The demand for our products and services has decreased and the ability of our customers to make payments for the products and services they purchased has been negatively impacted.

 

These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue within one year from the date of filing. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on out generating cash from the sale of our common stock and/or obtaining debt financing and attaining future profitable operations. Management’s plan include selling our equity securities and/or obtaining debt financing to fund our capital requirement and ongoing operations; however, there can be no assurance the Company will be successful in these efforts.

 

USE OF ESTIMATES:

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. A significant estimate includes the carrying value of the Company’s patents, fair value of the Company’s common stock, assumptions used in calculating the value of stock options, depreciation and amortization.

 

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS:

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents for the purposes of the statement of cash flows.

 

CASH CONCENTRATION:

 

The Company’s cash accounts are fully insured up to $250,000. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had cash accounts exceeding insured amount totaling $143,000 and $0, respectively. 

 

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT:

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized, and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the respective period. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, the useful lives range between 3-10 years, using the straight-line method for financial statement purposes.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2020 AND 2019

       

INTANGIBLE ASSETS:

 

License Agreements

 

In 2008, the Company obtained licenses to the rights of certain patents regarding nanostructured materials developed by another company as a result of the acquisition of Metallicum. The purchase price paid for these licenses was $305,000, which represented its fair value. The Company obtained an exclusive license on two patents and a non-exclusive license on the third patent. The value attributable to license agreements is being amortized over the period of its estimated benefit period of 10 years. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the license agreements were fully amortized. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company may be required to pay royalties, as defined, to the licensors.

 

In 2009, the Company entered into a patent license agreement with Los Alamos National Security LLC for the exclusive use of certain technology relating to the manufacture and application of nanostructuring metals and alloys. The purchase price paid for this license agreement was $33,000 based on the fair market value of 2,000,000 shares of common stock issued. The value attributable to license agreements is being amortized over the period of its estimated benefit period of 10 years. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the license agreements were fully amortized. Beginning in 2010, the Company was required to pay an annual license fee of $10,000 and may be required to pay royalties, as defined, to the licensors.

 

DUE FROM THE SALE OF ASSETS:

  

Non-current assets are classified as held for sale if it is highly probably that they will be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use.

  

Immediately before classification as held for sale, the assets are remeasured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell.  Any impairment loss on initial classification as held for sale and subsequent gains and losses on re-measurement are recognized in profit or loss.  Gains are not recognized in excess of any cumulative impairment loss.

  

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company sold the assets held for sale that were presented on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2018.  During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded impairment and adjusted the asset valuation to $1.2 million.  The Company sold the assets for a total of $1.2 million of which $300,000 was received during the year ended December 31, 2019.  The remaining $900,000 will be collected during the next three years in equal increments on the anniversary date of the agreement, May 1.  During May 2020, the Company received $300,000 and reduced the due from the sale of assets.   As of December 31, 2020, the Company evaluated the collectability and determined that no allowance is needed at this time due to the payment history with this third party and the subsequent receipt of funds.

    

MARKETABLE SECURITIES

  

The Company considers securities with original maturities of greater than 90 days to be available for sale securities. Securities under this classification are recorded at fair value and unrealized gains and losses within other income (loss). The estimated fair value of the available for sale securities is determined based on quoted market prices or rates for similar instruments. In addition, the cost of debt securities in this category is adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount to maturity. For available for sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company assesses whether it intends to sell or if it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value. If the criteria are not met, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from a credit loss or other factors. In making this assessment, management considers, among other factors, the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded for the credit loss, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized costs basis. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other income (loss). For the year ended December 31, 2020, no allowance was recorded for credit losses.

LEASE

   

The Company leases a facility with terms of month to month for its headquarters and had a lease on a facility through April 2021. The lease may be cancelled at any time with three months written notice before April 2020 and 2021, the anniversary dates of the lease. The Company adopted ASC 842 on January 1, 2019 and has evaluated that has no impact on the financial statements as under the practical expedient the leases consist of terms less than one year, and therefore is not required to capitalize the lease.

  

During June 2019, the Company entered into an assignment and assumption of lease with the landlord and another entity for the lease term through April 2021. The average aggregate annual rent for this space is $30,360.

  

INCOME TAXES

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under an asset and liability approach. This process involves calculating the temporary and permanent differences between the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The temporary differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which would be recorded on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets in accordance with ASC 740, which established financial accounting and reporting standards for the effect of income taxes. The Company must assess the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent the Company believes that recovery is not likely, the Company must establish a valuation allowance. Changes in the Company’s valuation allowance in a period are recorded through the income tax provision on the consolidated statements of operations.

 

ASC 740-10 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return.

 

Under ASC 740-10, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Additionally, ASC 740-10 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As a result of the implementation of ASC 740-10, the Company recognized no material adjustment in the liability for unrecognized income tax benefits.

 

BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share,” the basic loss per share is computed by dividing the loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Basic net income (loss) per share excludes the dilutive effect of stock options or warrants and convertible notes Diluted net earnings (loss) per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, consisting of shares that might be issued upon exercise of common stock options and warrants. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, 0 and 31,775,000, respectively, dilutive shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per common share, as the effect of these shares on earnings per share would have been anti-dilutive; however, dilutive shares were included from the calculation of diluted income common shares for the year ended December 31, 2020.

 

The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019:

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT:

 

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and amounted to $11,000 and $8,000 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION:

 

To date the only revenue generated is from the sale of field technology developed by Metallicum related to the Company’s nanotechnology, services provided and sample materials.

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as outlined in the Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue From Contracts with Customers, which consists of five steps to evaluating contracts with customers for revenue recognition: (i) identify the contract with the customer; (ii) identity the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price; and (v) recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfied a performance obligation.

 

Revenue recognition occurs at the time we satisfy a performance obligation to our customers, when control transfers to customers, provided there are no material remaining performance obligations required of the Company or any matters of customer acceptance. We only record revenue when collectability is probable.

 

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION:

 

In June 2018, FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Nonemployee Share Based Payment Accounting.  The amendments in this Update expand the scope of stock compensation to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The guidance in this Update does not apply to transactions involving equity instruments granted to a lender or investor that provides financing to the issuer. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2018 including interim periods within the fiscal year. The Company adopted with an effective date of January 1, 2019.  Upon adoption, there was no material impact to the financial statements. 

 

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, Pre Codification SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”, which provides a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The standard also expands disclosures about instruments measured at fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets;

Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

Level 3 — Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

The Company designates cash equivalents (consisting of money market funds) and investments in securities of publicly traded companies as Level 1. The total amount of the Company’s investment classified as Level 3 is de minimis. Fair value of financial instruments: The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including short-term investments, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payables approximated fair value as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 because of the relative short term nature of these instruments.

DECEMBER 31, 2020 AND 2019

 

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company elected fair value option for its investment in Imagion Biosystems, Inc. a Nevada company (“Imagion”) based on triggering event of dilution of ownership, which lead to the deconsolidation of Imagion. Investments in Imagion are measured at fair value as opposed to equity method based on ASC 825-10. The guidance allows entities to elect to measure certain financial assets and financial liabilities (as well as certain nonfinancial instruments that are similar to financial instruments) at fair value. Investments over which an investor has the ability to exercise significant influence are eligible for the fair value option as they represent recognized financial assets. When the fair value option is elected for an instrument, all subsequent changes in fair value for that instrument are reported in earnings.

 

As of the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company holds approximately 5% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Imagion and is reported under fair value method under ASC 320. Any change in the value is reported on the income statement as an unrealized gain or loss.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which removes, modifies, and adds certain disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements in ASC Topic 820. This guidance is effective for public companies in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. Effective January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU 2018-13.  The implementation of this standard did not have any material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which address issues identified as a result of the complexity associated with applying generally accepted accounting principles for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. This amendment is effective for public business entities that meet the definition of a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filer, excluding entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2020 AND 2019

 

Deferred taxes arise from temporary differences in the recognition of certain expenses for tax and financial reporting purposes. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, management determined that realization of these benefits is not assured and has provided a valuation allowance for the entire amount of such benefits. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, net operating loss carryforwards were approximately $47,043,000 and $51,357,000, respectively, for federal tax purposes that expire at various dates through 2031 and for state tax purposes expire through 2025.

 

Utilization of net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to substantial annual limitations due to the “change in ownership” provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and similar state regulations. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of substantial net operating loss carryforwards before utilization.

 

For December 31, 2020 and 2019, the provision for income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rate (21% in 2020 and 2019) to income taxes as follows:

NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTIGENCIES

 

Legal matter contingencies

 

The Company believes, based on current knowledge and after consultation with counsel, that is not currently party to any material proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, the resolution of which would have a material effect on the Company. Provisions for losses are established in accordance with ASC 450, “Contingencies” when warranted. Once established, such provisions are adjusted when there is more information available of when an event occurs requiring a change.

 

The Company entered into an employment agreement with Robert Prolux on January 12, 2015. The Company shall grant to Mr. Prolux 15,000,000 shares/options/warrants of restricted common stock, and Mr. Prolux could elect the form of this grant in either restricted common shares, cashless stock options, or cashless stock warrants. See Note 10.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our principal executive and principal financial officers have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a – 15(e) and 15d – 15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") that arc designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods required under the SEC's rules and forms and that the information is gathered and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(c) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report due to the reasons described below.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(t) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

 

1. Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

 

2. Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management and directors; and

 

3. Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020. Based on this assessment, management concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting as a result of the identified material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting described below. In making this assessment, management used the framework set forth in the report entitled Internal Control--Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or COSO. The COSO framework summarizes each of the components of a company's internal control system, including (i) the control environment, (ii) risk assessment, (iii) control activities, (iv) information and communication. and (v) monitoring.

 

Identified Material Weakness

 

A material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement or the financial statements will not be prevented or detected.

 

Management identified the following material weakness during its assessment of internal controls over financial reporting as or December 31, 2020:

 

Resources: As of December 31, 2020, we had no full-time employees in general management and no full-time employees with the requisite expertise in the key functional areas of finance and accounting. As a result, there is a lack of proper segregation of duties necessary to insure that all transactions are accounted for accurately and in a timely manner.

 

 
15

Table of Contents

 

Written Policies & Procedures: We need to prepare written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting to establish a formal process to close our books monthly on an accrual basis and account for all transactions, including equity transactions, and prepare, review and submit SEC filings in a timely manner.

 

Audit Committee: We do not have, and are not required, to have an audit committee. An audit committee would improve oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures. The Company lacks sufficient monitoring and review controls with respect to accounting for complex transactions.

 

Management's Remediation Initiatives

 

We plan to prepare written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting to establish a formal process to close our books monthly on an accrual basis and account for all transactions, including equity transactions. We also plan to add an audit committee financial expert to our board and create an audit committee made up of our independent directors.

 

(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during this fiscal quarter that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to have a materially affect, on our internal control over financial reporting.

SECCTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of our common stock to file reports of ownership and change in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the exchange on which the common stock is listed for trading. Executive officers, directors and more than ten percent stockholders are required by regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports filed. Based solely on our review of copies of the Section 16(a) reports filed for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, we believe that our executive officers, directors and ten percent stockholders complied with all reporting requirements applicable to them.

 

CODE OF ETHICS

 

On March 31, 2005, we adopted a code of ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. A copy of the Company’s Code of Ethics can be viewed obtained free of charge by sending a written request to the attention of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Emmanuel Tsoupanarias at 244 Fifth Avenue, Suite 2341, New York, New York, 10001.

 

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

 

We do not have a separately-designated standing audit committee. The entire Board of Directors of the Company acts as the audit committee. The Board of Directors of the Company has determined that it does not have an "audit committee financial expert" as such term is defined in the rules adopted by the SEC requiring companies to disclose whether or not at least one member of the audit committee is an "audit committee financial expert." The Board of Directors believes that the aggregate technical, commercial and financial experience of its members, together with their knowledge of the Company, provides the Board with the ability to monitor and direct the goals of the Company and to protect the best interests of its shareholders. Four of the five members of the Board of Directors are "independent," as that term is defined in Section 10A(m) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and that the members' independence qualifies it to monitor the performance of management, the public disclosures by the Company of its financial condition and performance, the Company's internal accounting operations and its independent auditors. In addition, the Board of Directors is authorized to engage independent financial consultants, auditors and counsel whenever it believes it is necessary and appropriate.

Prior to entering an Employment Agreement with the Company on March 28, 2013, Mr. Emmanuel Tsoupanarias, our Chief Executive Officer, did not have an employment agreement. His salary, was originally set at $100,000, was set by the Board of Directors in 2007. On March 28, 2013, the Company entered into an Employment Agreement with Emmanuel Tsoupanarias, our CEO. The agreement is for a term of five years and Mr. Tsoupanarias shall receive an annual salary of $150,000 per year and additional cash incentive consideration as determined by the Board. Effective January 1, 2015, the Company renewed the agreement for a period of ten years with automatic extensions for one-year periods thereafter. His salary remains at $150,000. In the event the employment agreement is terminated by the Company without cause, then the Mr. Tsoupanarias shall receive 50% of the base salary remaining on the term and all options and other securities he would have been entitled to for an additional three months shall vest.

 

The independent members of the Company’s board of directors, acting as a compensation committee, reviewed the compensation policies and practices relating to the compensation provided to the Company’s employees to determine whether such policies and practices are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. Based on the review and the compensation paid by the Company to its only employee, the Company determined that any risks associated with the Company’s compensation practices were not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.
