FLEXPOINT SENSOR SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2024

(UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 1– SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Condensed Interim Financial Statements – The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include the accounts of Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. (the “Company”). These financial statements are condensed and, therefore, do not include all disclosures normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Therefore, these statements should be read in conjunction with the most recent annual financial statements of Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 8, 2024. In particular, the Company’s significant accounting principles were presented as Note 1 to the Financial Statements in that report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying condensed financial statements and consist of only normal recurring adjustments. The results of operations presented in the accompanying condensed financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2024.

 

Nature of Operations – Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. (the Company) is located in West Jordan, Utah. The Company’s activities to date have included acquiring equipment and enhancing technology, obtaining financing, limited production and seeking long-term manufacturing contracts. The Company’s operations are in designing, engineering, manufacturing and selling sensor technology and equipment using flexible potentiometer technology. Through March 31, 2024, the Company continued to manufacture products and sensors to fill customer orders and provide engineering and design work.

 

The COVID-19 Pandemic (“the Pandemic”) has had a dramatic effect on our business as well as the business of our customers. The wide-ranging effects on the world-wide business market has led to a general reluctance for businesses to move forward with entering into major commitments until their future markets have been clarified. Because of this, we have experienced a significant slowdown in the size and number of orders received and, while we cannot predict when the influence of the Pandemic will end, we expect that orders will return to their former levels and increase following a return to normal business operations. We recognize that, with the changes brought by the pandemic, demand for our products may fluctuate in the future. We recognize these risks and are taking every effort to prevent or mitigate them as they arise.

 

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash and highly liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less.

 

Fair Value Measurements - The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that could be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Financial assets are marked to bid prices and financial liabilities are marked to offer prices. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity. In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk, including the party’s own credit risk.

 

Fair value measurements do not include transaction costs. A fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy is defined into the following three categories:

 

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

 

Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or

9 

 

model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.

 

To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is disclosed and is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

The carrying value of the Company’s cash, accounts payable, short-term borrowings (including convertible notes payable), and other current assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term maturity.

 

Accounts Receivable – Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the time product is shipped or services are provided including any shipping and handling fees. Contracts associated with design, development engineering and manufacturing generally require a deposit of 50% of the quoted price prior to the commencement of work. The deposit is considered deferred income until the entire project, or the appropriate portion of the contract to meet scheduled deliveries is completed and shipped, and accepted by the customer, at which time the entire contract price, or the appropriate portion of the contract, is billed to the customer and the deposit applied. The Company has established an allowance for bad debts based on a historical experience and an analysis of risk associated with the account balances. The balance in the allowance account was $103,777 and $103,777 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

 

Inventories – The Company has only a small amount of inventory. However, as production levels increase inventories will be carried on the balance sheet. Inventories will be stated at the lower of cost or market or net realizable value. Cost is determined by using the first in, first out (FIFO) method.

 

Property and Equipment– Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Additions and major improvements are capitalized while maintenance and repairs are charged to operations.  Upon trade-in, sale or retirement of property and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is recognized. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method and is recognized over the estimated useful lives of the property and equipment, which range from three to ten years.

 

Valuation of Long-lived Assets – The carrying values of the Company’s long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that they may not be recoverable. When projections indicate that the carrying value of the long-lived asset is not recoverable, the carrying value is reduced by the estimated excess of the carrying value over the projected discounted cash flows. Under similar analysis no impairment charge was taken during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 and during the year ended December 31, 2023. Impairment tests will be conducted on an annual basis and, should they indicate a carrying value in excess of fair value, additional impairment charges may be required.

 

Intangible Assets – Costs to obtain or develop patents are capitalized and amortized over the remaining life of the patents, and technology rights are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The Company currently has the right to several patents and proprietary technology.  Patents and technology are amortized from the date the Company acquires or is awarded the patent or technology right, over their estimated useful lives, which range from 5 to 15 years.  An impairment charge is recognized if the carrying amount is not recoverable and the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the intangible assets as determined by projected discounted net future cash flows. Under similar analysis there was no impairment charge taken during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 and during the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

Research and Development – Research and development costs are recognized as an expense during the period incurred, which is until the conceptual formulation, design, and testing of a process is completed and the process has been determined to be commercially viable.

 

Lease Obligations – The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases. The Company recognizes ROU assets and related lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases greater than one year in duration. Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term in equal amounts of rent expense attributed to each period during the term of the lease. This generally results in rent

10 

 

expense in excess of cash payments during the early years of the lease and rent expenses less than cash payments in later years. The difference between rent expense recognized and actual cash payments is typically represented as the spread between the ROU asset and lease liability.

 

Goodwill– Goodwill represents the excess of the Company’s reorganization value over the fair value of net assets of the Company upon emergence from bankruptcy. Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually, or at interim periods when a triggering event occurs using a fair value approach. According to Accounting Standards Codification (or “ASC”) 350-20 Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, a fair-value-based test is applied at the overall Company level. The test compares the fair value of the Company to the carrying value of its net assets. This test requires various judgments and estimates. The fair value of the Company is allocated to the Company’s assets and liabilities based upon their fair values with the excess fair value allocated to goodwill. An impairment of goodwill is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of goodwill over the determined fair value.

 

Revenue Recognition – On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and all of the related amendments (“new revenue standard”). We have applied the new revenue standard to all contracts as of the date of the initial adoption. The new revenue standard establishes five steps whereby a transaction is analyzed to determine if revenue has been earned and can be recognized. The adoption of the new revenue standard did not have any effect on our financial statements. The vast majority of our sales are made to order, for which orders we require a deposit of 50% of the value of the order. That amount is put in a customer deposit account until the entire order has been manufactured and shipped or the appropriate portion of the project is completed to meet scheduled deliveries, invoiced and shipped. At the ship date, the Company has no further obligations under that portion of the contract and the revenue from the sale is recognized.

 

A part of our customer base is made up of international customers. The table below allocates revenue between domestic and international customers. The following table presents Flexpoint Sensor Systems revenues disaggregated by region and product type:

 

Three months ended:   March 31,       March 31,

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share – Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. At March 31, 2024 and 2023 there were outstanding common share equivalents (options and convertible notes payable) which amounted to 11,973,112 and 11,043,870 of common stock, respectively. These common share equivalents were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 as their effect would have been anti-dilutive, thereby decreasing loss per common share.

 

Concentrations and Credit Risk - The Company has a few major customers who represent a significant portion of revenue, accounts receivable and notes receivable. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, two customers represented 74% of sales and two customers represented 96% of accounts receivable. The Company has a strong ongoing relationship with these customers with scheduled delivery extending through the year and does not believe this concentration poses a significant risk, as their products are based entirely on the Company’s technologies.

11 

 

 

Income Taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Codification (ASC) 740: Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets will be reflected on the balance sheet when it is determined that it is more likely than not that the asset will be realized

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements –The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting standards in order to determine their effects, if any, on its consolidated results of operation, financial position and cash flows. Based on that review, the Company believes that none of these pronouncements will have a significant effect on its current or future earnings or operations.

 

NOTE 2– GOING CONCERN

 

The Company continues to accumulate significant operating losses and has an accumulated deficit of $31,844,636 at March 31, 2024.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

 

Management is seeking additional funding to provide operating capital for its operations until such time as revenues are sufficient to sustain our level of operations.  However, there is no assurance that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

 

NOTE 3 – NOTES PAYABLE

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company received five payments for a total of $96,985 from two of the convertible note holders as working capital loans to enable the Company to meet its obligations for operating expenses. The advances bear interest at the rate of 10%, but there are no other terms established. While the intent is to memorialize these advances through the issuance of a convertible note, as of the date of this filing that has not been done. Therefore these advances are treated as on demand notes and are included in our current liabilities. Until such agreement is reached, the balance of $1,298,900 as of March 31, 2024 is unsecured and due on demand. At March 31, 2024 there is $114,569 in accrued unpaid interest relating to these notes.

 

In August 2020 the Company received $50,000 from a large shareholder to meet operating expenses. The shareholder indicated that he would want the $50,000 loan repaid when the Company was in a position to do so. The shareholder subsequently provided an additional $5,000, for a total loan of $55,000. Payments of $47,500 has been made, leaving a balance of $7,500 at March 31, 2024. The balance is non-interest bearing and due on demand.

 

NOTE 4 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

 

Convertible Notes Payable

 

At March 31, 2024, there are notes outstanding with principal balances which total $180,000. Of the notes, $140,000 are convertible notes bearing a 10% annual rate of interest (with a 15% default rate). Of these notes, $100,000 is convertible into shares of common stock at the rate of $0.05 per share and $40,000 is convertible at $0.07 per share. The remaining $40,000 is a convertible note entered into on August 8, 2011 with a former Company Director, at a conversion rate of $0.20 per share. That note was due on December 31, 2015 and bears a default interest rate of 10%. The notes are all in default.

NOTE 5– STOCK OPTION PLANS

 

On August 25, 2005, the Board of Directors of the Company approved and adopted the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the Plan). The Plan became effective upon its adoption by the Board and continued in effect for ten years, terminating on August 25, 2015.  This plan was approved by the stockholders of the Company at their annual meeting of shareholders on November 22, 2005. Under the Plan, the exercise price for all options issued will not be less than the average quoted closing market price of the Company’s trading common stock for the thirty-day period immediately preceding the grant date plus a premium of ten percent.  The maximum aggregate number of shares that may be awarded under the plan is 2,500,000 shares. The Company continues to utilize the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for calculating the fair value of the options granted as defined by ASC Topic 718, which is an acceptable valuation approach under ASC 718. This model requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected price volatility of the underlying stock.

 

On August 24, 2015, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of options to purchase 2,185,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Of the total issued, 1,960,000 options were issued to replace options held by directors and employees which were to expire and 225,000 options were issued to new employees. Of the options issued, 640,000 have an option price of $0.14 per share, 500,000 have an option price of $0.15 per share, 995,000 have an option price of $0.20 per share, and 50,000 have an option price of $0.25 per share. Options issued as replacement shall have immediate vesting terms. Options which are not replacements shall vest over a two-year, four-month period in equal installments on the last day of 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively.

 

Projected data related to the expected volatility and expected life of stock options is based upon historical and other information, and notably, the Company's common stock has limited trading history. Changes in these subjective assumptions can materially affect the fair value of the estimate, and therefore, the existing valuation models do not provide a precise measure of the fair value of the Company's employee stock options.

 

Between August 25, 2005 and August 25, 2019, the Company granted options to employees to purchase an aggregate 3,096,000 shares of common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.15 to $2.07 per share. The options all vested by December 31, 2017 and expire 10 years from the date of grant.

 

On December 30, 2020 the Board of Directors approved the revaluation of all outstanding stock options, reducing the option price to $0.05 per share. The Company recorded a charge of $8,203 as the result of this change.

 

As of the years ended December 31, 2005 through 2020, the Company recognized a total of $2,451,971 of stock-based compensation expense, which includes charges of $8,203 in 2020, leaving $0 in unrecognized expense as of December 31, 2021. There were 1,900,000 employee stock options outstanding at March 31, 2024.  

 

A summary of all employee options outstanding and exercisable under the plan as of March 31, 2024 is set forth below:

Options Shares Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value
         
Outstanding at the beginning of period 1,900,000 $0.05 1.65 $              --

During the three-months ended March 31, 2024 the Company made payment of $2,078 against amounts payable to the Chief Executive Officer. At December 31, 2023, the Company had amounts of $62,717 payable to its Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board for funds provided to meet the operating expense obligations of the Company.

 

NOTE 9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

In April, May, June and July 2024, the Company received $128,048 in additional funding from holders of convertible notes. There has not been a note written on these funds, and no terms have been agreed to. The funding is to bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum. The Company is recording the receipt of the funding as on demand notes until such time as terms are agreed upon by the parties.

 

The Company has evaluated all other subsequent events pursuant to ASC Topic 855 and has determined that there are no events that require disclosure as of the date of issuance.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

 

Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. is a company engaged principally in improving its unique sensor technology, expanding its suite of products, developing new sensor applications, obtaining financing and seeking long-term sustainable manufacturing contracts, licensing agreements and royalty agreements.  Our operations have not yet commenced to a commercially sustainable level and include designing, engineering, manufacturing, licensing and selling sensor technology and products featuring our Bend Sensor® technology and equipment.

 

Finalizing long-term, constant revenue generating production contracts with our existing and other customers remains our greatest challenge because our on-going business is dependent on the types of revenues and cash flows generated by such contracts. Cash flow and cash requirement risks are closely tied to and are dependent upon our ability to attract significant long-term production contracts. We must continue to obtain funding to operate and expand our operations so that we can deliver our unique Bend Sensor® and Bend Sensor® related technologies and products to the market.  Management believes that even though we are making positive strides forward with our business plan we will need to raise additional operating capital.

 

Worldwide automakers are faced with the challenge of providing a safer, more energy efficient, longer lasting product that consumers can afford. This has required automakers to search new and innovative ways to lower the overall weight of the vehicle and to improve its fuel efficiencies, while lowering the cost. We continue to experience an increased interest regarding automotive and other potential applications for our sensor technology because they meet this criterion. With its versatility, light weight, single layer construction and the fact that it is currently being used in various safety devices the Bend Sensor® is positioned well to meet the challenges that the automobile industry is facing.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

The challenges posed by the Pandemic in the United States and global economies has had a significant effect on our business During this difficult time, we have worked to ensure that our customers continue to receive quality, personalized service.

 

The lingering effect of the Pandemic continues to negatively impact our revenue. At this time, it is impossible to accurately predict when this will end. Many of our clients, to protect their employees, have sharply curtailed operations and have most employees working from home. The long-term impact of the Pandemic is difficult to assess at this point, as it will be dependent on how rapidly our clients can resume their business operations and place orders with us for the needed sensors incorporated into their products.

 

Currently our revenue is primarily from product development, manufacturing and recurring sales with additional contributions to income from design contract, testing and limited production services for prototypes and samples, and is currently not at a level to support our operations.  Depending upon the world returning to some form of normalcy following the end of the Pandemic, we believe, based upon current orders and projected orders over the

15 

 

next twelve months, that we could be producing sensors under long-term contracts in the future that will help support our existing operations and potential future growth. Management recognizes such contracts usually go through a long negotiation process and there can be no guarantee that we will be successful in our negotiations or that such contracts will be sufficient to support our current operations in the near future.

 

In the first three months of 2024, we have relied on the proceeds of advances in the form of on-demand loans from existing shareholders, which funds are accounted for as demand notes. The balances of the non-related party convertible notes have a combined total of $180,000 as of March 31, 2024. The notes have an annual interest rate of 8% to 10% and default rates of 10% to 15%, have various maturity dates, and are secured by the Company’s business assets. The on-demand notes have a principal balance of $1,298,900 at March 31, 2024 and no terms have yet been established for these funds.

 

Management believes that our current cash burn rate is approximately $60,000 per month and expectations are that it will continue at this rate for the foreseeable future. If the business returns to pre-Pandemic levels, with proceeds from additional convertible notes and estimated revenues for manufacturing, production, engineering design and prototype products should be sufficient to fund the next twelve months of operations. Our auditors have expressed doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and that we may not realize significant revenue or become profitable within the next twelve months. We will require additional financing to fund our short-term cash needs. We will have to rely on additional debt financing, loans from existing shareholders and private placements of common stock for additional funding. Based upon our anticipated purchase orders over the next twelve months the revenue generated will not be sufficient to cover our operating expenses, based on our current burn rate. However, we cannot assure that we will be able to obtain short-term financing, or that sources of such financing, if any, will continue to be available, and if available, that they will be on terms favorable to us. Nor is there any guarantee that the projected volume of purchase orders will meet the volumes that we anticipate.

 

As we enter into new agreements, we must ensure that those agreements provide adequate funding for any pre-production research and development and manufacturing costs. If we are successful in establishing agreements with adequate initial funding, management believes that our operations for the long term will be funded by revenues, licensing fees and/or royalties related to these agreements. However, we have formalized only a few agreements during the past four years and there can be no assurance that the agreements will generate sufficient revenues or be profitable in the future or that a desired technological application will be successful enough to produce the volumes and profits necessary to fund our operations.

 

FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

 

Our principal commitments at March 31, 2024 consisted of our operating lease of $6,857 per month, and total liabilities of $5,107,922, which includes $180,000 of convertible notes payable. Accrued liabilities at March 31, 2024, were $2,831,483 and were related to payroll, payroll tax liabilities, accrued professional expenses, accrued insurance expense, accrued interest expense on notes and accrued paid time off.

 

In August 2020 the Company received $50,000 from John Kelly, a large shareholder, to meet operating expenses. Mr. Kelly indicated that he would want the $50,000 repaid when the Company was in a position to do so. Mr. Kelly subsequently provided an additional $5,000, for a total loan of $55,000. This funding has not formally been documented by a note at the time of this filing, and there is no term or interest on the note. In 2023, 2022 and 2021 payment of $47,500 was made to reduce the balance. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, no additional payments were made, leaving a remaining balance of $7,500.

 

The Company has received in funding from holders of our convertible notes. These fundings have not yet been memorialized into convertible notes. The only term agreed upon to date is that all funds advanced will bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum from the date of deposit.

 

The Company has a few major customers who represent a significant portion of revenue and accounts receivable. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, two customers represented 74% of sales and two customers represented 96% of accounts receivable. The Company has a strong ongoing relationship with these customers with scheduled product deliveries extending through the year from one of the customers with an account receivable and does not believe this concentration poses a significant risk, as their products are based entirely on the Company’s technologies.

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.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

 

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)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 amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates of particular significance in our financial statements include goodwill and the annual tests for impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets and valuing stock option compensation.

 

ASC 350-20 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other: The Company follows the guidance provided by ASC 350-20. The Company's goodwill represents the excess of its reorganization value over the fair value of the net assets upon emergence from bankruptcy. Goodwill is not amortized; therefore, we test our goodwill for impairment annually or when a triggering event occur using a fair value approach. A fair value-based test is applied at the overall Company level. The test compares the fair value of the Company to the carrying value of its net assets. The test requires various judgments and estimates. During 2023 and for the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded no impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of the goodwill to its estimated fair value. As part of the impairment testing performed at December 31, 2023, the Company considered factors such as the global market volatility, variables in the economy, and the overall uncertainty in the markets that has resulted in a decline in the market price of the Company's stock price and market capitalization for a sustained period, as indicators for potential goodwill impairment.

 

ASC 820 Fair Value Measurement: We test long-lived assets for impairment annually or when a triggering event occurs. Impairment is indicated if undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the assets. The amount of impairment is measured using a discounted-cash-flows model considering future revenues, operating costs and risk-adjusted discount rate and other factors. The analysis compares the present value of projected net cash flows for the remaining current year and next two years against the carrying value of the long-lived assets. If the carrying values of the long-lived assets exceed the present value of the discounted projected revenues an impairment expense would be recognized in the period and the carrying value of the assets would be adjusted accordingly. Impairment tests are conducted on an annual basis and, should they indicate a carrying value in excess of fair value, a charge may be required.

 

ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation: Financial accounting standards require that recognition of the cost of employee services received in exchange for stock options and awards of equity instruments be based on the grant-date fair value of such options and awards and is recognized as an expense in operations over the period they vest. The fair value of the options we have granted is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes American option-pricing model. Option pricing models require the input of highly sensitive assumptions, including expected stock volatility. In addition, our stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate.  Management believes the best input assumptions available were used to value the options and that the resulting option values are reasonable. For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we recognized $0 and $0, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense for our stock options and there is no additional unrecognized compensation cost related to employee stock options at the current time.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The Company continues to concentrate its marketing resources on a limited number of customers that have the greatest potential to generate the most short-term revenue while still building relationships with our larger customers. Management believes this approach has the highest potential to bring long-term commercially viable products to market and will provide sustainable cash flow to fund the Company's operations in the future. Currently, overall revenues are not sufficient to sustain our operations. The Pandemic has had a dramatic effect on our business as well as the business of our customers. The wide-ranging effects on the world-wide business market has led to a general reluctance for businesses to move forward with entering into major commitments until their future markets have been clarified. Following a return to normal business operations in the world, management anticipates

17 

 

that revenues will increase as we continue to execute our long-term business plan and cultivate larger customer bases with our existing product offering. However, until the Pandemic ends and a long-term production contract is in place there is no guarantee that our current customer base will order in sufficient volumes to sustain our operations. Therefore, management continues to work with larger companies and industries and is hopeful that in the near future we will sign a long-term licensing or manufacturing contract.

 

We recognized revenue from repeat orders from our existing customers, design contract, and development engineering. Revenue is recognized using the ASC 606 five step detailed in Note 1 to the financial statements. Revenue from the sale of a product is recorded at the time of shipment to the customer.  Revenue from the license agreements was recognized in the period the agreement was concluded, as it is a right of use license and the Company has no further obligations to perform under the terms of the agreement. Revenue from research and development engineering contracts is recognized as the services are provided and accepted by the customer. Revenue from contracts to license technology to others is deferred until all conditions under the contract are met and then the sale is recognized as licensing royalty revenue over the remaining term of the contract.

 

The following discussions are based on the consolidated operations of Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. and should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, included in Part I, Item 1, above, and the audited financial statements included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Cash at March 31, 2024 was overdrawn by $15,548, which amount is shown as a liability. At December 31, 2023 there was an overdraft of $11,315. The negative cash is due to the issuance of checks for operating expenses and the delayed receipt of funds to deposit. Our non-current assets are unchanged, as all property and equipment and patents have been fully depreciated.

 

Total liabilities increased by $138,620 at March 31, 2024 due to the increase of on-demand notes, accrued payroll and accrued interest.

 

INFLATION

 

We do not expect the impact of inflation to have a negative impact on our product sales or our operations for the next twelve months.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(a)Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, who also serves as our Principal Financial Officer. Our controls and procedures are designed to allow information required to be disclosed in our reports to be recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified periods, and accumulated and communicated to management to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure of material information. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Based upon the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at that reasonable assurance level as of the end of the three-month period ended March 31, 2024.

 

The material weaknesses relate to the limited number of persons responsible for the recording and reporting of financial information, the lack of separation of financial reporting duties, and the limited size of our management team in general. We are in the process of evaluating methods of improving our internal control over financial reporting, including the possible addition of financial reporting staff and the increased separation of financial reporting responsibility, and intend to implement such steps as are necessary and possible to correct these material weaknesses

 

(b)Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the three months of 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 1– SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Condensed Interim Financial Statements – The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include the accounts of Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. (the “Company”). These financial statements are condensed and, therefore, do not include all disclosures normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Therefore, these statements should be read in conjunction with the most recent annual financial statements of Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 8, 2024. In particular, the Company’s significant accounting principles were presented as Note 1 to the Financial Statements in that report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying condensed financial statements and consist of only normal recurring adjustments. The results of operations presented in the accompanying condensed financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2024.

 

Nature of Operations – Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. (the Company) is located in West Jordan, Utah. The Company’s activities to date have included acquiring equipment and enhancing technology, obtaining financing, limited production and seeking long-term manufacturing contracts. The Company’s operations are in designing, engineering, manufacturing and selling sensor technology and equipment using flexible potentiometer technology. Through March 31, 2024, the Company continued to manufacture products and sensors to fill customer orders and provide engineering and design work.

 

The COVID-19 Pandemic (“the Pandemic”) has had a dramatic effect on our business as well as the business of our customers. The wide-ranging effects on the world-wide business market has led to a general reluctance for businesses to move forward with entering into major commitments until their future markets have been clarified. Because of this, we have experienced a significant slowdown in the size and number of orders received and, while we cannot predict when the influence of the Pandemic will end, we expect that orders will return to their former levels and increase following a return to normal business operations. We recognize that, with the changes brought by the pandemic, demand for our products may fluctuate in the future. We recognize these risks and are taking every effort to prevent or mitigate them as they arise.

 

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash and highly liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less.

 

Fair Value Measurements - The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that could be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Financial assets are marked to bid prices and financial liabilities are marked to offer prices. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity. In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk, including the party’s own credit risk.

 

Fair value measurements do not include transaction costs. A fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy is defined into the following three categories:

 

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

 

Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or

model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.

 

To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is disclosed and is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

The carrying value of the Company’s cash, accounts payable, short-term borrowings (including convertible notes payable), and other current assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term maturity.

 

Accounts Receivable – Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the time product is shipped or services are provided including any shipping and handling fees. Contracts associated with design, development engineering and manufacturing generally require a deposit of 50% of the quoted price prior to the commencement of work. The deposit is considered deferred income until the entire project, or the appropriate portion of the contract to meet scheduled deliveries is completed and shipped, and accepted by the customer, at which time the entire contract price, or the appropriate portion of the contract, is billed to the customer and the deposit applied. The Company has established an allowance for bad debts based on a historical experience and an analysis of risk associated with the account balances. The balance in the allowance account was $103,777 and $103,777 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

 

Inventories – The Company has only a small amount of inventory. However, as production levels increase inventories will be carried on the balance sheet. Inventories will be stated at the lower of cost or market or net realizable value. Cost is determined by using the first in, first out (FIFO) method.

 

Property and Equipment– Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Additions and major improvements are capitalized while maintenance and repairs are charged to operations.  Upon trade-in, sale or retirement of property and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is recognized. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method and is recognized over the estimated useful lives of the property and equipment, which range from three to ten years.

 

Valuation of Long-lived Assets – The carrying values of the Company’s long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that they may not be recoverable. When projections indicate that the carrying value of the long-lived asset is not recoverable, the carrying value is reduced by the estimated excess of the carrying value over the projected discounted cash flows. Under similar analysis no impairment charge was taken during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 and during the year ended December 31, 2023. Impairment tests will be conducted on an annual basis and, should they indicate a carrying value in excess of fair value, additional impairment charges may be required.

 

Intangible Assets – Costs to obtain or develop patents are capitalized and amortized over the remaining life of the patents, and technology rights are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The Company currently has the right to several patents and proprietary technology.  Patents and technology are amortized from the date the Company acquires or is awarded the patent or technology right, over their estimated useful lives, which range from 5 to 15 years.  An impairment charge is recognized if the carrying amount is not recoverable and the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the intangible assets as determined by projected discounted net future cash flows. Under similar analysis there was no impairment charge taken during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 and during the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

Research and Development – Research and development costs are recognized as an expense during the period incurred, which is until the conceptual formulation, design, and testing of a process is completed and the process has been determined to be commercially viable.

 

Lease Obligations – The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases. The Company recognizes ROU assets and related lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases greater than one year in duration. Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term in equal amounts of rent expense attributed to each period during the term of the lease. This generally results in rent

expense in excess of cash payments during the early years of the lease and rent expenses less than cash payments in later years. The difference between rent expense recognized and actual cash payments is typically represented as the spread between the ROU asset and lease liability.

 

Goodwill– Goodwill represents the excess of the Company’s reorganization value over the fair value of net assets of the Company upon emergence from bankruptcy. Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually, or at interim periods when a triggering event occurs using a fair value approach. According to Accounting Standards Codification (or “ASC”) 350-20 Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, a fair-value-based test is applied at the overall Company level. The test compares the fair value of the Company to the carrying value of its net assets. This test requires various judgments and estimates. The fair value of the Company is allocated to the Company’s assets and liabilities based upon their fair values with the excess fair value allocated to goodwill. An impairment of goodwill is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of goodwill over the determined fair value.

 

Revenue Recognition – On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and all of the related amendments (“new revenue standard”). We have applied the new revenue standard to all contracts as of the date of the initial adoption. The new revenue standard establishes five steps whereby a transaction is analyzed to determine if revenue has been earned and can be recognized. The adoption of the new revenue standard did not have any effect on our financial statements. The vast majority of our sales are made to order, for which orders we require a deposit of 50% of the value of the order. That amount is put in a customer deposit account until the entire order has been manufactured and shipped or the appropriate portion of the project is completed to meet scheduled deliveries, invoiced and shipped. At the ship date, the Company has no further obligations under that portion of the contract and the revenue from the sale is recognized.

 

A part of our customer base is made up of international customers. The table below allocates revenue between domestic and international customers. The following table presents Flexpoint Sensor Systems revenues disaggregated by region and product type:

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share – Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. At March 31, 2024 and 2023 there were outstanding common share equivalents (options and convertible notes payable) which amounted to 11,973,112 and 11,043,870 of common stock, respectively. These common share equivalents were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 as their effect would have been anti-dilutive, thereby decreasing loss per common share.

 

Concentrations and Credit Risk - The Company has a few major customers who represent a significant portion of revenue, accounts receivable and notes receivable. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, two customers represented 74% of sales and two customers represented 96% of accounts receivable. The Company has a strong ongoing relationship with these customers with scheduled delivery extending through the year and does not believe this concentration poses a significant risk, as their products are based entirely on the Company’s technologies.

Income Taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Codification (ASC) 740: Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets will be reflected on the balance sheet when it is determined that it is more likely than not that the asset will be realized

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements –The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting standards in order to determine their effects, if any, on its consolidated results of operation, financial position and cash flows. Based on that review, the Company believes that none of these pronouncements will have a significant effect on its current or future earnings or operations.

GOING CONCERN

NOTE 2– GOING CONCERN

 

The Company continues to accumulate significant operating losses and has an accumulated deficit of $31,844,636 at March 31, 2024.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

 

Management is seeking additional funding to provide operating capital for its operations until such time as revenues are sufficient to sustain our level of operations.  However, there is no assurance that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

NOTE 3 – NOTES PAYABLE

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company received five payments for a total of $96,985 from two of the convertible note holders as working capital loans to enable the Company to meet its obligations for operating expenses. The advances bear interest at the rate of 10%, but there are no other terms established. While the intent is to memorialize these advances through the issuance of a convertible note, as of the date of this filing that has not been done. Therefore these advances are treated as on demand notes and are included in our current liabilities. Until such agreement is reached, the balance of $1,298,900 as of March 31, 2024 is unsecured and due on demand. At March 31, 2024 there is $114,569 in accrued unpaid interest relating to these notes.

 

In August 2020 the Company received $50,000 from a large shareholder to meet operating expenses. The shareholder indicated that he would want the $50,000 loan repaid when the Company was in a position to do so. The shareholder subsequently provided an additional $5,000, for a total loan of $55,000. Payments of $47,500 has been made, leaving a balance of $7,500 at March 31, 2024. The balance is non-interest bearing and due on demand.

Convertible Notes Payable

 

At March 31, 2024, there are notes outstanding with principal balances which total $180,000. Of the notes, $140,000 are convertible notes bearing a 10% annual rate of interest (with a 15% default rate). Of these notes, $100,000 is convertible into shares of common stock at the rate of $0.05 per share and $40,000 is convertible at $0.07 per share. The remaining $40,000 is a convertible note entered into on August 8, 2011 with a former Company Director, at a conversion rate of $0.20 per share. That note was due on December 31, 2015 and bears a default interest rate of 10%. The notes are all in default. At March 31, 2024 there is $169,377 in accrued unpaid interest relating to these convertible notes.

STOCK OPTION PLANS

NOTE 5– STOCK OPTION PLANS

 

On August 25, 2005, the Board of Directors of the Company approved and adopted the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the Plan). The Plan became effective upon its adoption by the Board and continued in effect for ten years, terminating on August 25, 2015.  This plan was approved by the stockholders of the Company at their annual meeting of shareholders on November 22, 2005. Under the Plan, the exercise price for all options issued will not be less than the average quoted closing market price of the Company’s trading common stock for the thirty-day period immediately preceding the grant date plus a premium of ten percent.  The maximum aggregate number of shares that may be awarded under the plan is 2,500,000 shares. The Company continues to utilize the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for calculating the fair value of the options granted as defined by ASC Topic 718, which is an acceptable valuation approach under ASC 718. This model requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected price volatility of the underlying stock.

 

On August 24, 2015, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of options to purchase 2,185,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Of the total issued, 1,960,000 options were issued to replace options held by directors and employees which were to expire and 225,000 options were issued to new employees. Of the options issued, 640,000 have an option price of $0.14 per share, 500,000 have an option price of $0.15 per share, 995,000 have an option price of $0.20 per share, and 50,000 have an option price of $0.25 per share. Options issued as replacement shall have immediate vesting terms. Options which are not replacements shall vest over a two-year, four-month period in equal installments on the last day of 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively.

 

Projected data related to the expected volatility and expected life of stock options is based upon historical and other information, and notably, the Company's common stock has limited trading history. Changes in these subjective assumptions can materially affect the fair value of the estimate, and therefore, the existing valuation models do not provide a precise measure of the fair value of the Company's employee stock options.

 

Between August 25, 2005 and August 25, 2019, the Company granted options to employees to purchase an aggregate 3,096,000 shares of common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.15 to $2.07 per share. The options all vested by December 31, 2017 and expire 10 years from the date of grant.

 

On December 30, 2020 the Board of Directors approved the revaluation of all outstanding stock options, reducing the option price to $0.05 per share. The Company recorded a charge of $8,203 as the result of this change.

 

As of the years ended December 31, 2005 through 2020, the Company recognized a total of $2,451,971 of stock-based compensation expense, which includes charges of $8,203 in 2020, leaving $0 in unrecognized expense as of December 31, 2021. There were 1,900,000 employee stock options outstanding at March 31, 2024.  

 

A summary of all employee options outstanding and exercisable under the plan as of March 31, 2024 is set forth below:

Options Shares Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value
         
Outstanding at the beginning of period 1,900,000 $0.05 1.65 $              --

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Condensed Interim Financial Statements

Condensed Interim Financial Statements – The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include the accounts of Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. (the “Company”). These financial statements are condensed and, therefore, do not include all disclosures normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Therefore, these statements should be read in conjunction with the most recent annual financial statements of Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 8, 2024. In particular, the Company’s significant accounting principles were presented as Note 1 to the Financial Statements in that report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying condensed financial statements and consist of only normal recurring adjustments. The results of operations presented in the accompanying condensed financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2024.
Nature of Operations

Nature of Operations – Flexpoint Sensor Systems, Inc. (the Company) is located in West Jordan, Utah. The Company’s activities to date have included acquiring equipment and enhancing technology, obtaining financing, limited production and seeking long-term manufacturing contracts. The Company’s operations are in designing, engineering, manufacturing and selling sensor technology and equipment using flexible potentiometer technology. Through March 31, 2024, the Company continued to manufacture products and sensors to fill customer orders and provide engineering and design work.

The COVID-19 Pandemic (“the Pandemic”) has had a dramatic effect on our business as well as the business of our customers. The wide-ranging effects on the world-wide business market has led to a general reluctance for businesses to move forward with entering into major commitments until their future markets have been clarified. Because of this, we have experienced a significant slowdown in the size and number of orders received and, while we cannot predict when the influence of the Pandemic will end, we expect that orders will return to their former levels and increase following a return to normal business operations. We recognize that, with the changes brought by the pandemic, demand for our products may fluctuate in the future. We recognize these risks and are taking every effort to prevent or mitigate them as they arise.
Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash and highly liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less.
Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements - The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that could be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Financial assets are marked to bid prices and financial liabilities are marked to offer prices. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity. In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk, including the party’s own credit risk.

Fair value measurements do not include transaction costs. A fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy is defined into the following three categories:

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

Level 2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or

model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.

To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is disclosed and is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The carrying value of the Company’s cash, accounts payable, short-term borrowings (including convertible notes payable), and other current assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term maturity.
Accounts Receivable

Accounts Receivable – Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the time product is shipped or services are provided including any shipping and handling fees. Contracts associated with design, development engineering and manufacturing generally require a deposit of 50% of the quoted price prior to the commencement of work. The deposit is considered deferred income until the entire project, or the appropriate portion of the contract to meet scheduled deliveries is completed and shipped, and accepted by the customer, at which time the entire contract price, or the appropriate portion of the contract, is billed to the customer and the deposit applied. The Company has established an allowance for bad debts based on a historical experience and an analysis of risk associated with the account balances. The balance in the allowance account was $103,777 and $103,777 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Inventories

Inventories – The Company has only a small amount of inventory. However, as production levels increase inventories will be carried on the balance sheet. Inventories will be stated at the lower of cost or market or net realizable value. Cost is determined by using the first in, first out (FIFO) method.
Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment– Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Additions and major improvements are capitalized while maintenance and repairs are charged to operations.  Upon trade-in, sale or retirement of property and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is recognized. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method and is recognized over the estimated useful lives of the property and equipment, which range from three to ten years.
Valuation of Long-lived Assets

Valuation of Long-lived Assets – The carrying values of the Company’s long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that they may not be recoverable. When projections indicate that the carrying value of the long-lived asset is not recoverable, the carrying value is reduced by the estimated excess of the carrying value over the projected discounted cash flows. Under similar analysis no impairment charge was taken during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 and during the year ended December 31, 2023. Impairment tests will be conducted on an annual basis and, should they indicate a carrying value in excess of fair value, additional impairment charges may be required.
Intangible Assets

Intangible Assets – Costs to obtain or develop patents are capitalized and amortized over the remaining life of the patents, and technology rights are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The Company currently has the right to several patents and proprietary technology.  Patents and technology are amortized from the date the Company acquires or is awarded the patent or technology right, over their estimated useful lives, which range from 5 to 15 years.  An impairment charge is recognized if the carrying amount is not recoverable and the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the intangible assets as determined by projected discounted net future cash flows. Under similar analysis there was no impairment charge taken during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 and during the year ended December 31, 2023.
Research and Development

Research and Development – Research and development costs are recognized as an expense during the period incurred, which is until the conceptual formulation, design, and testing of a process is completed and the process has been determined to be commercially viable.
Lease Obligations

Lease Obligations – The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases. The Company recognizes ROU assets and related lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases greater than one year in duration. Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term in equal amounts of rent expense attributed to each period during the term of the lease. This generally results in rent

expense in excess of cash payments during the early years of the lease and rent expenses less than cash payments in later years. The difference between rent expense recognized and actual cash payments is typically represented as the spread between the ROU asset and lease liability.
Goodwill

Goodwill– Goodwill represents the excess of the Company’s reorganization value over the fair value of net assets of the Company upon emergence from bankruptcy. Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually, or at interim periods when a triggering event occurs using a fair value approach. According to Accounting Standards Codification (or “ASC”) 350-20 Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, a fair-value-based test is applied at the overall Company level. The test compares the fair value of the Company to the carrying value of its net assets. This test requires various judgments and estimates. The fair value of the Company is allocated to the Company’s assets and liabilities based upon their fair values with the excess fair value allocated to goodwill. An impairment of goodwill is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of goodwill over the determined fair value.
Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition – On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and all of the related amendments (“new revenue standard”). We have applied the new revenue standard to all contracts as of the date of the initial adoption. The new revenue standard establishes five steps whereby a transaction is analyzed to determine if revenue has been earned and can be recognized. The adoption of the new revenue standard did not have any effect on our financial statements. The vast majority of our sales are made to order, for which orders we require a deposit of 50% of the value of the order. That amount is put in a customer deposit account until the entire order has been manufactured and shipped or the appropriate portion of the project is completed to meet scheduled deliveries, invoiced and shipped. At the ship date, the Company has no further obligations under that portion of the contract and the revenue from the sale is recognized.

A part of our customer base is made up of international customers. The table below allocates revenue between domestic and international customers. The following table presents Flexpoint Sensor Systems revenues disaggregated by region and product type:

Basic and Diluted Loss per Share

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share – Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. At March 31, 2024 and 2023 there were outstanding common share equivalents (options and convertible notes payable) which amounted to 11,973,112 and 11,043,870 of common stock, respectively. These common share equivalents were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 as their effect would have been anti-dilutive, thereby decreasing loss per common share.
Concentrations and Credit Risk

Concentrations and Credit Risk - The Company has a few major customers who represent a significant portion of revenue, accounts receivable and notes receivable. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, two customers represented 74% of sales and two customers represented 96% of accounts receivable. The Company has a strong ongoing relationship with these customers with scheduled delivery extending through the year and does not believe this concentration poses a significant risk, as their products are based entirely on the Company’s technologies.
Income Taxes

Income Taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Codification (ASC) 740: Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets will be reflected on the balance sheet when it is determined that it is more likely than not that the asset will be realized
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements –The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting standards in order to determine their effects, if any, on its consolidated results of operation, financial position and cash flows. Based on that review, the Company believes that none of these pronouncements will have a significant effect on its current or future earnings or operations.
