GUIDED THERAPEUTICS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

1. ORGANIZATION, BACKGROUND, AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Guided Therapeutics, Inc. (formerly SpectRx, Inc.), together with its wholly owned subsidiary, InterScan, Inc. (formerly Guided Therapeutics, Inc.), collectively referred to herein as the “Company“, is a medical technology company focused on developing innovative medical devices that have the potential to improve healthcare. The Company’s primary focus is the continued commercialization of its LuViva non-invasive cervical cancer detection device and extension of its cancer detection technology into other cancers, including esophageal. The Company’s technology, including products in research and development, primarily relates to biophotonics technology for the non-invasive detection of cancers.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Board simultaneously approved a 1-for-20 reverse stock split of our common stock and decreased the total number of authorized common shares to 500,000,000. On November 18, 2021, the Company submitted an Issuer Company Related Action Notification regarding the reverse stock split to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA“). On July 25, 2022, the Company filed a Certificate of Correction with the Secretary of State of Delaware to render null and void ab initio the Reverse Split Amendment and as a result, the Reverse Split was deemed null and void.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP“) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC“) pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The December 31, 2021 balances reported herein are derived from the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.

 

All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 have been included.

 

The Company’s prospects must be considered in light of the substantial risks, expenses and difficulties encountered by entrants into the medical device industry. This industry is characterized by an increasing number of participants, intense competition and a high failure rate. The Company has experienced net losses since its inception and, as of June 30, 2022, it had an accumulated deficit of approximately $144.4 million. To date, the Company has engaged primarily in research and development efforts and the early stages of marketing its products. The Company may not be successful in growing sales for its products. Moreover, required regulatory clearances or approvals may not be obtained in a timely manner, or at all. The Company’s products may not ever gain market acceptance and the Company may not ever generate significant revenues or achieve profitability. The development and commercialization of the Company’s products requires substantial development, regulatory, sales and marketing, manufacturing and other expenditures. The Company expects operating losses to continue for the foreseeable future as it continues to expend substantial resources to complete development of its products, obtain regulatory clearances or approvals, build its marketing, sales, manufacturing and finance capabilities, and conduct further research and development.

 

The Company is not organized by multiple operating segments for the purpose of making operating decisions or assessing performance. Accordingly, the Company operates in one reportable operating segment. The Company’s principal decision makers are the Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer. Management believes that its business operates as one reportable segment because: a) the Company measures profit and loss as a whole; b) the principal decision makers do not review information based on any operating segment; c) the Company does not maintain discrete financial information on any specific segment; d) the Company has not chosen to organize its business around different products and services, and e) the Company has not chosen to organize its business around geographic areas.

Going Concern

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared and presented on a basis assuming it will continue as a going concern. The factors below raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

At June 30, 2022, the Company had a negative working capital of approximately $4.9 million, accumulated deficit of $144.4 million, and incurred a net loss including preferred dividends of $2.1 million for the six months then ended. Stockholders’ deficit totaled approximately $5.8 million at June 30, 2022, primarily due to recurring net losses from operations.

 

During the six-month period ended June 30, 2022, the Company raised $0.5 million of proceeds from warrant exercises. The Company will need to continue to raise capital in order to provide funding for its operations and FDA approval process. If sufficient capital cannot be raised, the Company will continue its plans of curtailing operations by reducing discretionary spending and staffing levels and attempting to operate by only pursuing activities for which it has external financial support. However, there can be no assurance that such external financial support will be sufficient to maintain even limited operations or that the Company will be able to raise additional funds on acceptable terms, or at all. In such a case, the Company might be required to enter into unfavorable agreements or, if that is not possible, be unable to continue operations, and to the extent practicable, liquidate and/or file for bankruptcy protection.

 

The Company had warrants exercisable for approximately 24.7 million shares of its common stock outstanding at June 30, 2022, with exercise prices ranging between $0.15 and $0.80 per share. Exercises of in-the-money warrants would generate a total of approximately $4.2 million in cash, assuming full exercise, although the Company cannot be assured that holders will exercise any warrants. Management may obtain additional funds through the public or private sale of debt or equity, and grants, if available.

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant areas where estimates are used include the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation and input variables for Black-Scholes, Monte Carlo simulations and binomial calculations. The Company uses the Monte Carlo simulations and binomial calculations in the calculation of the fair value of the warrant liabilities and the valuation of embedded conversion options and freestanding warrants.

 

Accounting Standard Updates

 

A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under consideration by standard-setting organizations and certain regulatory agencies. Because of the tentative and preliminary nature of such proposed standards, management has not yet determined the effect, if any that the implementation of such proposed standards would have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be a cash equivalent.

 

 
11

Table of Contents

 

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its distributors’ financial conditions and generally does not require collateral. The Company reviews all outstanding accounts receivable for collectability on a quarterly basis. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded for any amounts deemed uncollectable. Uncollectibility is determined based on the determination that a distributor will not be able to make payment and the time frame has exceeded one year. The Company does not accrue interest receivables on past due accounts receivable.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

The Company, from time to time during the years covered by these consolidated financial statements, may have bank balances in excess of its insured limits. Management has deemed this a normal business risk.

 

Inventory Valuation

 

All inventories are stated at lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined substantially on a “first-in, first-out“ basis. Selling, general, and administrative expenses are not inventoried, but are charged to expense when incurred. The following is a summary of the Company’s inventories as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized at the shorter of the useful life of the asset or the remaining lease term. Depreciation and amortization expense are included in general and administrative expense on the statement of operations. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. The following is a summary of the Company’s property and equipment at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Debt Issuance Costs

 

Debt issuance costs are capitalized and amortized over the term of the associated debt. Debt issuance costs are presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability consistent with the debt discount.

Costs incurred in filing, prosecuting, and maintaining patents are recurring, and expensed as incurred. Maintaining patents are expensed as incurred as the Company has not yet received U.S. FDA approval and recovery of these costs is uncertain. Such costs were not material for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

 

Leases

 

A lease provides the lessee the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term.

 

Where an operating lease contains extension options that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, the extension period is included in the calculation of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.

 

The discount rate used to determine the commencement date present value of lease payments is the interest rate implicit in the lease, or when that is not readily determinable, the Company utilizes its secured borrowing rate. Right-of-use assets include any lease payments required to be made prior to commencement and exclude lease incentives. Both right-of-use assets and lease liabilities exclude variable payments not based on an index or rate, which are treated as period costs. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain significant residual value guarantees, restrictions or covenants. See Note 7 – Commitments and Contingencies.

Revenue Recognition

 

ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, establishes a single and comprehensive framework which sets out how much revenue is to be recognized, and when. The core principle is that a vendor should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the vendor expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue will now be recognized by a vendor when control over the goods or services is transferred to the customer. In contrast, revenue-based revenue recognition around an analysis of the transfer of risks and rewards; this now forms one of a number of criteria that are assessed in determining whether control has been transferred. The application of the core principle in ASC 606 is carried out in five steps:

 

 

·

Step 1 – Identify the contract with a customer: a contract is defined as an agreement (including oral and implied), between two or more parties, that creates enforceable rights and obligations and sets out the criteria for each of those rights and obligations. The contract needs to have commercial substance and it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration to which it will be entitled.

 

 

 

 

·

Step 2 – Identify the performance obligations in the contract: a performance obligation in a contract is a promise (including implicit) to transfer a good or service to the customer. Each performance obligation should be capable of being distinct and is separately identifiable in the contract.

 

 

 

 

·

Step 3 – Determine the transaction price: transaction price is the amount of consideration that the entity can be entitled to, in exchange for transferring the promised goods and services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties.

 

 

 

 

·

Step 4 – Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract: for a contract that has more than one performance obligation, the entity will allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation separately, in exchange for satisfying each performance obligation. The acceptable methods of allocating the transaction price include adjusted market assessment approach, expected cost plus a margin approach, and the residual approach in limited circumstances. Discounts given should be allocated proportionately to all performance obligations unless certain criteria are met and reallocation of changes in standalone selling prices after inception is not permitted.

 

 

 

 

·

Step 5 – Recognize revenue as and when the entity satisfies a performance obligation: the entity should recognize revenue at a point in time, except if it meets any of the three criteria, which will require recognition of revenue over time: the entity’s performance creates or enhances an asset controlled by the customer, the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of the entity’s performance as the entity performs, and the entity does not create an asset that has an alternative use to the entity and the entity has the right to be paid for performance to date.

 

The Company did not recognize material revenues during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 or 2021. The Company’s revenues do not require significant estimates or judgments. The Company is not party to contracts that include multiple performance obligations or material variable consideration.

Contract Balances

 

The Company defers payments received as revenue until earned based on the related contracts and applying ASC 606 as required. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, deferred revenue was approximately $512,557 and $337,315, respectively.

 

Significant Distributors

 

As of June 30, 2022, accounts receivable outstanding was approximately $155,046. The gross outstanding amount was netted against a $125,584 allowance, leaving a balance of $29,462 which was from two distributors. As of December 31, 2021, accounts receivable outstanding was $171,153; the outstanding amount was netted against a $125,584 allowance, leaving a balance of $45,569, which was from two distributors.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development expenses consist of expenditures for research conducted by the Company and payments made under contracts with consultants or other outside parties and costs associated with internal and contracted clinical trials. All research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Income Taxes

 

The provision for income taxes is determined in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes“. The Company provides for income taxes based on enacted tax law and statutory tax rates at which items of income and expense are expected to be settled in our income tax return. Certain items of revenue and expense are reported for Federal income tax purposes in different periods than for financial reporting purposes, thereby resulting in deferred income taxes. Deferred taxes are also recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

The Company has filed its 2021 federal and state corporate tax returns. The Company has entered into an agreed upon payment plan with the IRS for delinquent payroll taxes. The Company has an established payment arrangement for its delinquent state income taxes with the State of Georgia. Although the Company has been experiencing recurring losses, it is obligated to file tax returns for compliance with IRS regulations and that of applicable state jurisdictions. At June 30, 2022, the Company had approximately $61.6 million of net operating losses carryforward available. This net operating loss will be eligible to be carried forward for tax purposes at federal and applicable states level. A full valuation allowance has been recorded related the deferred tax assets generated from the net operating losses.

 

The Company recognizes uncertain tax positions based on a benefit recognition model. Provided that the tax position is deemed more likely than not of being sustained, the Company recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50.0% likely of being ultimately realized upon settlement. The tax position is derecognized when it is no longer more likely than not of being sustained. The Company classifies income tax related interest and penalties as interest expense and selling, general and administrative expense, respectively, on the consolidated statements of operations.

Warrants

 

The Company has issued warrants, which allow the warrant holder to purchase one share of stock at a specified price for a specified period of time. The Company records equity instruments including warrants based on the fair value at the date of issue. The fair value of warrants classified as equity instruments at the date of issuance is estimated using the Black-Scholes Model. The fair value of warrants classified as liabilities at the date of issuance is estimated using the Monte Carlo Simulation or Binomial model.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for its stock-based awards in accordance with ASC Subtopic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation“, which requires fair value measurement on the grant date and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based payment awards made to employees and directors. The Company determines the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes model. The fair value of restricted stock awards is based upon the quoted market price of the common shares on the date of grant. The fair value of stock-based awards is expensed over the requisite service periods of the awards. The Company accounts for forfeitures of stock-based awards as they occur.

 

The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires the input of certain assumptions that require the Company’s judgment, including the expected term and the expected stock price volatility of the underlying stock. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based compensation represent management’s best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of judgment. As a result, if factors change resulting in the use of different assumptions, stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future.

 

Derivatives

 

The Company reviews the terms of convertible debt issued to determine whether there are embedded derivative instruments, including embedded conversion options, which are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as derivative financial instruments. In circumstances where the host instrument contains more than one embedded derivative instrument, including the conversion option, that is required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single, compound derivative instrument.

 

Bifurcated embedded derivatives are initially recorded at fair value and are then revalued at each reporting date with changes in the fair value reported as non-operating income or expense. When the equity or convertible debt instruments contain embedded derivative instruments that are to be bifurcated and accounted for as liabilities, the total proceeds received are first allocated to the fair value of all the bifurcated derivative instruments. The remaining proceeds, if any, are then allocated to the host instruments themselves, usually resulting in those instruments being recorded at a discount from their face value. The discount from the face value of the convertible debt, together with the stated interest on the instrument, is amortized over the life of the instrument through periodic charges to interest expense.

 

3. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The guidance for fair value measurements, ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, establishes the authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and outlines the required disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell 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 at the measurement date. The Company uses a three-tier fair value hierarchy based upon observable and non-observable inputs as follow:

 

 

·

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

 

·

Level 2–Inputs, other than level 1 inputs, either directly or indirectly observable; and

 

·

Level 3–Unobservable inputs developed using internal estimates and assumptions (there is little or no market date) which reflect those that market participants would use.

Preferred Stock

 

The Company has authorized 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a $0.001 par value. The board of directors has the authority to issue these shares and to set dividends, voting and conversion rights, redemption provisions, liquidation preferences, and other rights and restrictions.

 

Series C Convertible Preferred Stock

 

The board designated 9,000 shares of preferred stock as Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, (the “Series C Preferred Stock“). Pursuant to the Series C certificate of designations, shares of Series C preferred stock are convertible into common stock by their holder at any time and may be mandatorily convertible upon the achievement of specified average trading prices for the Company’s common stock. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were 286 shares outstanding with a conversion price of $0.50 per share, such that each share of Series C preferred stock would convert into approximately 2,000 shares of the Company’s common stock; for a total convertible of 572,000 common stock shares, subject to customary adjustments, including for any accrued but unpaid dividends and pursuant to certain anti-dilution provisions, as set forth in the Series C certificate of designations. The conversion price will automatically adjust downward to 80% of the then-current market price of the Company’s common stock 15 trading days after any reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock, and 5 trading days after any conversions of the Company’s outstanding convertible debt.

 

Holders of the Series C preferred stock are entitled to quarterly cumulative dividends at an annual rate of 12.0% until 42 months after the original issuance date (the “Dividend End Date“), payable in cash or, subject to certain conditions, the Company’s common stock. Unpaid accrued dividends were $120,120 as of June 30, 2022. Upon conversion of the Series C preferred stock prior to the Dividend End Date, the Company will also pay to the converting holder a “make-whole payment“ equal to the number of unpaid dividends through the Dividend End Date on the converted shares. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the “make-whole payment“ for a converted share of Series C preferred stock would convert to 200 shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

The Series C preferred stock generally has no voting rights except as required by Delaware law. Upon the Company’s liquidation or sale to or merger with another corporation, each share will be entitled to a liquidation preference of $1,000, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends.

Series C1 Convertible Preferred Stock

 

The board designated 20,250 shares of preferred stock as Series C1 Preferred Stock, of which 1,049 shares were issued and outstanding at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. In addition, some holders separately agreed to exchange each share of the Series C1 Preferred Stock held for one (1) share of the Company’s newly created Series C2 Preferred Stock. In total, for 3,262.25 shares of Series C1 Preferred Stock to be surrendered, the Company issued 3,262.25 shares of Series C2 Preferred Stock. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, shares of Series C2 had a conversion price of $0.50 per share, such that each share of Series C preferred stock would convert into approximately 2,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were 1,049.25 shares outstanding with a conversion price of $0.50 per share, such that each share of Series C1 preferred stock would convert into approximately 2,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, for a total convertible of 2,098,500 common stock shares.

 

The Series C1 preferred stock has terms that are substantially the same as the Series C preferred stock, except that the Series C1 preferred stock does not pay dividends (unless and to the extent declared on the common stock) or at-the-market “make-whole payments“ and, while it has the same anti-dilution protections afforded the Series C preferred stock, it does not automatically reset in connection with a reverse stock split or conversion of our outstanding convertible debt.

 

Series C2 Convertible Preferred Stock

 

On August 31, 2018, the Company entered into agreements with certain holders of the Company’s Series C1 Preferred Stock, including the chairman of the Company’s board of directors, the Chief Operating Officer, and a director of the Company, pursuant to which those holders separately agreed to exchange each share of the Series C1 Preferred Stock held for one (1) share of the Company’s newly created Series C2 Preferred Stock. In total, for 3,262.25 shares of Series C1 Preferred Stock to be surrendered, the Company issued 3,262.25 shares of Series C2 Preferred Stock. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, shares of Series C2 had a conversion price of $0.50 per share, such that each share of Series C preferred stock would convert into approximately 2,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, for a total convertible of 6,524,500 common stock shares.

 

The terms of the Series C2 Preferred Stock are substantially the same as the Series C1 Preferred Stock, except that (i) shares of Series C1 Preferred Stock may not be convertible into the Company’s common stock by their holder for a period of 180 days following the date of the filing of the Certificate of Designation (the “Lock-Up Period“); (ii) the Series C2 Preferred Stock has the right to vote as a single class with the Company’s common stock on an as-converted basis, notwithstanding the Lock-Up Period; and (iii) the Series C2 Preferred Stock will automatically convert into that number of securities sold in the next Qualified Financing (as defined in the Exchange Agreement) determined by dividing the stated value ($1,000 per share) of such share of Series C2 Preferred Stock by the purchase price of the securities sold in the Qualified Financing.

 

Series D Convertible Preferred Stock

 

The Board designated 6,000 shares of preferred stock as Series D Preferred Stock, 438 and 763 of which remained outstanding as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. On January 8, 2021, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors (“the Series D Investors“) pursuant to all obligations under the Series D Certificate of Designation. The Series D Investors included the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and a director of the Company. In total, for $763,000 the Company issued 763 shares of Series D Preferred Stock, 1,526,000 common stock shares, 1,526,000 common stock warrants, exercisable at $0.25, and 1,526,000 common stock warrants, exercisable at $0.75. Each Series D Preferred Stock is convertible into 3,000 common stock shares. The Series D Preferred Stock will have cumulative dividends at the rate per share of 10% per annum. The stated value and liquidation preference on the Series D Preferred Stock is $763. The 763 Series D Preferred Shares are convertible into debt at the option of the holder during a prescribed time period. If the Series D Preferred Shares are converted, the Series D preferences are surrendered and the debt is then secured by the Company’s assets. As of June 30, 2022, none of the remaining 438 Series D Preferred Shares have been converted to secured debt.

Table of Contents

 

Each share of Series D Preferred is convertible, at any time for a period of 5 years after issuance, into that number of shares of Common Stock, determined by dividing the Stated Value by $0.25, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the Series D Certificate of Designation (the “Series D Conversion Price“). The conversion of Series D Preferred is subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation, which may be increased to 9.99% at the election of the holder of the Series D Preferred. If the average of the VWAPs (as defined in the Series D Certificate of Designation) for any consecutive 5 trading day period (“Measurement Period“) exceeds 200% of the then Series D Conversion Price and the average daily trading volume of the Common Stock on the primary trading market exceeds 1,000 shares per trading day during the Measurement Period (subject to adjustments), the Company may redeem the then outstanding Series D Preferred, for cash in an amount equal to aggregate Stated Value then outstanding plus accrued but unpaid dividends.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company entered into various agreements with Series D Preferred shareholders, pursuant to which each holder separately agreed to exchange their Series D Preferred shares into the Company’s common shares (in accordance with their existing Series D Preferred Share Agreements). In addition, the holders agreed to exchange 650,000 common stock warrants with a strike price of $0.25 for 650,000 warrants with a strike price of $0.20, which were required to be immediately exercised. The Company received $130,000 from the holders for exercises of the aforementioned warrants.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company issued 975,000 common stock shares for the conversion of 325 shares of Series D Preferred Stock.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had accrued dividends for Series F Preferred shares of $16,878.

 

Series F-2 Convertible Preferred Stock

 

The Company was oversubscribed for its Series F Convertible Preferred Stock, resulting in the requirement to file an additional Certificate of Designation for Series F-2 Convertible Preferred Stock with substantially the same terms as the Series F Convertible Preferred Stock. The Board designated 3,500 shares of preferred stock as Series F-2 Preferred Stock, 2,771 and 3,237 of which were issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. During 2021, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors (“the Series F-2 Investors“). In total, for $678,000 the Company issued 678 shares of Series F-2 Preferred Stock. In addition, the Company exchanged outstanding debt of $2,559,000 for 2,559 shares of Series F-2 Preferred Stock. Each Series F-2 Preferred Stock is convertible into 4,000 common stock shares. The Series F-2 Preferred Stock will have cumulative dividends at the rate per share of 6% per annum. The stated value on the Series F-2 Preferred Stock is $1,000.

 

Each share of Series F-2 Preferred is convertible, at any time for a period of 5 years after issuance, into that number of shares of Common Stock, determined by dividing the Stated Value by $0.25, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the Series F-2 Certificate of Designation (the “Series F-2 Conversion Price“). The conversion of Series F-2 Preferred is subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation, which may be increased to 9.99% at the election of the holders of the Series F-2 Preferred. If the average of the VWAPs (as defined in the Series F-2 Certificate of Designation) for any consecutive 5 trading day period (“Measurement Period“) exceeds 200% of the then Series F-2 Conversion Price and the average daily trading volume of the Common Stock on the primary trading market exceeds 1,000 shares per trading day during the Measurement Period (subject to adjustments), the Company may redeem the then outstanding Series F-2 Preferred, for cash in an amount equal to aggregate Stated Value then outstanding plus accrued but unpaid dividends.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company issued 1,864,000 common stock shares for the conversion of 466 shares of Series F-2 Preferred stock and 114,304 common stock shares for the payment of annual Series F-2 Preferred Stock dividends.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had accrued dividends for Series F-2 Preferred shares of $123,743.

5. STOCK OPTIONS

 

The new Stock Plan (the “Plan“) allows for the issuance of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, and stock purchase rights. The exercise price of options was determined by the Company’s board of directors, but incentive stock options were granted at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock as of the grant date. Options historically granted have generally become exercisable over four years and expire ten years from the date of grant. The plan provides for stock options to be granted up to 10% of the outstanding common stock shares.

 

There was no stock option activity during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The following table summarizes the Company’s outstanding and exercisable stock options as of June 30, 2022:

The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the Company’s closing stock price as of June 30, 2022 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of options. As of June 30, 2022, there was $175,647 of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense. Such costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately one year. The weighted-average fair value of awards granted was nil and $0.47 during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock option awards on a straight-line basis over the applicable service period of the award. The service period is generally the vesting period. The Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following weighted-average assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of awards granted during the six months ended June 30, 2021:

6. LITIGATION AND CLAIMS

 

From time to time, the Company may be involved in various legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes that the dispositions of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition. However, depending on the amount and timing of such disposition, an unfavorable resolution of some or all of these matters could materially affect the future results of operations or cash flows in a particular year. As of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, there was no accrual recorded for any potential losses related to pending litigation.

Related Party Contracts

 

On June 5, 2016, the Company entered into a license agreement with Shenghuo Medical, LLC pursuant to which the Company granted Shenghuo an exclusive license to manufacture, sell and distribute LuViva in Taiwan, Brunei Darussalam, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. Shenghuo was already the Company’s exclusive distributor in China, Macau and Hong Kong, and the license extended to manufacturing in those countries as well. Under the terms of the license agreement, once Shenghuo was capable of manufacturing LuViva in accordance with ISO 13485 for medical devices, Shenghuo would pay the Company a royalty equal to $2.00 or 20% of the distributor price (subject to a discount under certain circumstances), whichever is higher, per disposable distributed within Shenghuo’s exclusive territories. In connection with the license grant, Shenghuo was to underwrite the cost of securing approval of LuViva with Chinese Food and Drug Administration. At its option, Shenghuo also would provide up to $1.0 million in furtherance of the Company’s efforts to secure regulatory approval for LuViva from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, in exchange for the right to receive payments equal to 2% of the Company’s future sales in the United States, up to an aggregate of $4.0 million. Pursuant to the license agreement, Shenghuo had the option to have a designee appointed to the Company’s board of directors (current director Richard Blumberg is the designee).

On September 6, 2016, the Company entered into a royalty agreement with one of its directors, John Imhoff, and another stockholder, Dolores Maloof, pursuant to which the Company sold to them a royalty of future sales of single-use cervical guides for LuViva. Under the terms of the royalty agreement, and for consideration of $50,000, the Company will pay them an aggregate perpetual royalty initially equal to $0.10, and from and after October 2, 2016, equal to $0.20, for each disposable that the Company sells (or that is sold by a third party pursuant to a licensing arrangement with the Company).

 

On January 22, 2020, the Company entered into a promotional agreement with a related party, which is partially owned by Mr. Blumberg, to provide investor and public relations services for a period of two years. As compensation for these services, the Company will issue a total of 5,000,000 warrants, broken into four tranches of 1,250,000. The warrants have a strike price of $0.25 and are subject to vesting based upon the close of the Series D offering and a minimum share price based on the 30-day VWAP. If the minimum share price per the terms of the agreement is not achieved, the warrants will expire three years after the issuance date. The warrants were valued using the Black Scholes model on the grant date of January 22, 2020, which resulted in a total fair value of $715,000. The Company did not appropriately expense the services received in connection with this agreement in 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized $79,444 of consulting expenses as a result of this agreement. Unrecognized consulting expense to be recognized under this agreement is nil as of June 30, 2022.

 

On March 10, 2021, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Richard Blumberg. As a result of the consulting agreement Mr. Blumberg provided $350,000, which was recorded to subscription receivable, to the Company in exchange for the following: (1) on September 26, 2021, 900,000 3-year warrants with an exercise price of $0.30 and 400,000 common stock shares; (2) on March 26, 2022, 900,000 3-year warrants with an exercise price of $0.40 and 400,000 common stock shares; (3) on September 26, 2022, 900,000 3-year warrants with an exercise price of $0.50 and 400,000 common stock shares; and (4) on March 26, 2023, 900,000 3-year warrants with an exercise price of $0.60 and 400,000 common stock shares.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the consulting agreement was amended to clarify that $350,000 is not intended to be debt and will not be required to be repaid in cash. Additionally, issuance of the warrants is now predicated on the Company receiving funding receipts of $1,000,000, whether from a financing, series of financing, or gross sales. The amended agreement clarified that the warrants issued to Mr. Blumberg are compensation for services, which involve obtaining financing. The Company will recognize expense for the services equal to the fair value of the warrants issued to Mr. Blumberg as the services are provided, which will coincide with the successful execution of a financing agreement over $1,000,000.

 

Other Commitments

 

On July 24, 2019, Shandong Yaohua Medical Instrument Corporation (“SMI“), agreed to modify its existing agreement.

If SMI needs to purchase cervical guides, then it will do so at a cost including labor, plus ten percent markup. The Company will provide 200 cervical guides at no cost for the clinical trials. Fourth, the Company and SMI will make best efforts to sell devices after CFDA approval. With an initial estimate of year one sales of 200 LuViva devices; year two sales of 500 LuViva devices; year three sales of 1,000 LuViva devices; and year four sales of 1,250 LuViva devices.

For each single-use cervical guide sold by SMI in the jurisdictions, SMI shall transfer funds to escrow agent at a rate of $1.90 per device chip. If within 18 months of the license’s effective date, SMI fails to achieve commercialization of LuViva in China, SMI shall no longer have any rights to manufacture, distribute or sell LuViva. Commercialization is defined as: filing an application with the Chinese FDA for the approval of LuViva; any assembly or manufacture of the devices or disposables that begins in China; and purchase of at least 10 devices and disposables for clinical evaluations and regulatory use and or sales in the jurisdictions.

9. SHORT-TERM CONVERTIBLE DEBT, INCLUDING NON-CONVERTIBLE PENALTY

 

Short-term Convertible Notes Payable, Including Debt in Default and Penalties

 

Auctus

 

On December 17, 2019, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement and convertible note with Auctus. The convertible note issued to Auctus was for a total of $2.4 million. The note may not have been prepaid in whole or in part except as otherwise explicitly allowed. Any amount of principal or interest on the note which was not paid when due shall bore interest at the rate of the lessor of 24% or the maximum permitted by law (the “default interest“). The variable conversion prices equaled the lesser of: (i) the lowest trading price on the issue date, and (ii) the variable conversion price. The variable conversion price was 95% multiplied by the market price (the market price means the average of the five lowest trading prices during the period beginning on the issue date and ending on the maturity date), minus $0.04 per share, provided however that in no event could the variable conversion price be less than $0.15. If an event of default under this note occurred and/or the note was not extinguished in its entirety prior to December 17, 2020, the $0.15 price floor no longer applied. 

 

The first tranche of $700,000 was received on December 2019, matured on December 17, 2021, and accrued interest at a rate of ten percent (10%). In connection with the first tranche of $700,000, the Company issued 7,500,000 warrants to purchase common stock with an exercise price of $0.20. The fair value of the warrants at the date of issuance was $745,972; $635,000 was allocated to the warrant liability and a loss of $110,972 was recorded at the date of issuance for the amount of the fair value in excess of the net proceeds received of $635,000. The $700,000 proceeds were received net of debt issuance costs of $65,000 (net proceeds of $635,000, after administrative and legal expenses Company received $570,000). The Company used $65,000 of the proceeds to make a partial payment of the $89,250 convertible promissory note issued on July 3, 2018 to Auctus. The Company made a $700,000 payment on June 1, 2021, which resulted in a prepayment penalty of $350,000 being assessed to the Company, which remained outstanding as of June 30, 2022 and is not convertible. The Company recorded this prepayment penalty as a loss on extinguishment of debt. The prepayment penalty does not incur interest. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the outstanding amount of the note was nil.

 

On May 27, 2020, the Company received the second tranche in the amount of $400,000, from the December 17, 2019 securities purchase agreement and convertible note with Auctus. The net amount paid to the Company was $313,000. The note matured on May 27, 2022 and accrued interest at a rate of ten percent (10%). The note may not have been prepaid in whole or in part except as otherwise explicitly allowed. Any amount of principal or interest on the note which was was not paid when due incurred interest at the rate of the lessor of 24% or the maximum permitted by law (the “default interest“). The variable conversion prices shall equal the lesser of: (i) the lowest trading price on the issue date, and (ii) the variable conversion price. The variable conversion price shall mean 95% multiplied by the market price (the market price means the average of the five lowest trading prices during the period beginning on the issue date and ending on the maturity date), minus $0.04 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred a default penalty of $225,444 for nonpayment of the note at maturity, which remained outstanding as of June 30, 2022. The Company recorded this default penalty as interest expense. The penalty incurs interest at the default rate of 24%.

The note matured on January 26, 2021 and accrued interest at a rate of 12% per year. We may not have prepaid the note, in whole or in part. After the 90th calendar day after the issuance date and ending on the later of maturity date and the date of payment of the default amount, Auctus may convert the note, at any time, in whole or in part, provided such conversion does not provide Auctus with more than 4.99% of the outstanding common share stock. The conversion may be converted into shares of the our common stock, at a conversion price equal to the lesser of: (i) the lowest Trading Price during the twenty-five (25) trading day period on the last trading prior to the issue date and (ii) the variable conversion price (55% multiplied by the market price, market price means the lowest trading price for the common stock during the twenty-five (25) trading day period ending on the latest complete trading day prior to the conversion date). Trading price is the lowest trade price on the trading market as reported. The note includes customary events of default provisions and a default interest rate of 24% per year. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the outstanding balance on the note was $161,184 (which includes a default penalty of $48,434). Accrued interest as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $55,877 and $36,428, respectively.

Table of Contents

 

On July 24, 2019, Dr. Faupel and Mr. Cartwright agreed to an addendum to the debt restructuring exchange agreement and to modify the terms of the original exchange agreement. Under this modification Dr. Faupel and Mr. Cartwright agreed to extend the note to be due in full on the third anniversary of that agreement.

 

On February 19, 2021, the Company entered into new promissory notes replacing the original notes from September 4, 2018, with Mark Faupel and Gene Cartwright. For Dr. Cartwright the principal amount on the new note was $267,085, matures on February 18, 2023, and will accrue interest at a rate of 6.0%. For Dr. Faupel the principal amount on the new note was $153,178, matures on February 18, 2023, and will accrue interest at a rate of 6.0%. The modifications extended the maturity date on both of the notes.

 

On February 19, 2021, the Company exchanged $100,000 and $85,000 of long-term debt for Dr. Cartwright and Dr. Faupel in exchange for 100 and 85 shares of Series F2 Preferred Stock, respectively.

On June 22, 2022, we entered into exchange agreements with Dr. Cartwright and Dr. Faupel. Pursuant to the agreements, $29,776 of related-party payables, $31,285 of short-term related-party debt and $8,939 of accrued expenses owed to these executives will be converted into shares of common stock and/or warrants valued at $70,000, upon successful completion of a financing of at least $4,000,000.

 

On March 22, 2021, the Company entered into an exchange agreement with Richard Fowler. As of December 31, 2020, the Company owed Mr. Fowler $546,214 ($412,624 in deferred salary and $133,590 in accrued interest). The Company exchanged $50,000 of the amount owed of $546,214 for 50 share of Series F-2 Preferred Shares (convertible into 200,000 common stock shares), and a $150,000 unsecured note. The note accrues interest at the rate of 6% (18% in the event of default) beginning on March 22, 2022 and is payable in monthly installments of $3,580 for four years, with the first payment due on March 15, 2022. The effective interest rate of the note is 6.18%. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, Mr. Fowler forgave $24,785 of the outstanding balance and may forgive up to $234,875 of the remaining deferred compensation if the Company complies with the repayment plan described above. The reduction in the outstanding balance met the criteria for troubled debt. The basic criteria are that the borrower is troubled, i.e., they are having financial difficulties, and a concession is granted by the creditor. The outstanding principal amount owed on the note was $137,423 as of June 30, 2022, of which $35,749 is included in “Current portion of long-term debt, related parties“ and the remainder of which is included in “Long-term debt, related parties“ on the consolidated balance sheets.

The loan accrued interest at a rate of 1.00%, and matured in 24 months, with the principal and interest payments being deferred until the date of forgiveness with interest accruing, then converting to monthly principal and interest payments, at the interest rate provided herein, for the remaining eighteen (18) months. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the outstanding balance was nil and $11,181, respectively, and is included in “Current portion of long-term debt“ within the consolidated balance sheets. Accrued interest on the note was nil and $385 as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

 

10% Senior Unsecured Convertible Debenture

 

On May 17, 2021, the Company issued 10% Senior Unsecured convertible debentures to investors, which mature on May 17, 2024 (the “Maturity Date“). The Company subscribed $1,130,000 of the $1,000 convertible debentures. The terms of the debentures are as follows: 1) the principal amount of some or all of the convertible debentures and accrued interest are convertible into common stock shares at the holder’s option, at a price of $0.50 per common stock share (the “conversion price“), subject to adjustment in certain events, at any time prior to maturity date; 2) upon successful uplist to a U.S. National Exchange, the note will automatically convert into the uplisting financing; 3) each debenture unit will have a right to 1,000 warrants for common stock shares, warrants have an exercise price of $0.80 and an expiration date of May 17, 2023; 4) if a Change of Control (as defined in the Convertible Debenture Certificate) occurs prior to the Maturity Date, unless the holder elects in writing to convert the Convertible Debentures into common shares, the Company will repay in cash upon the closing of such Change of Control all outstanding principal and accrued interest under each Convertible Debenture plus a Change of Control premium equal to an additional 3% of the outstanding principal sum under such Convertible Debenture. Prior to the closing of an Change of Control, in lieu of repayment as set forth in the preceding sentence, the holder has the right to elect in writing to convert, effective immediately prior to the effective date of such Change of Control, all outstanding principal and accrued Interest under the Convertible Debentures into common shares at the Conversion Price; 5) Subject to a holder‘s option of electing conversion prior to the Redemption Date (as such term is defined below), on or after the date that is 24 months from the Closing Date if the daily volume weighted average trading price of the common shares is $1.50 per common share or more for each trading day over a 30 consecutive trading day period, the Company may, at any time (the “Redemption Date“), at its option, redeem all, or any portion of the Convertible Debentures for either: (i) a cash payment (in the form of a certified cheque or bank draft) that is equal to all outstanding principal and accrued interest under each Convertible Debenture up to the Redemption Date; or (ii) by issuing and delivering common shares to the holders of Convertible Debentures at a deemed price of $0.50 per common share that is equal to all outstanding principal and accrued interest under each Convertible Debenture up to the Redemption Date, or any combination of (i) or (ii), upon not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior written notice in the manner provided in the Debenture Certificate, to the holder of Convertible Debentures.

6% Unsecured Promissory Note

 

On July 9, 2020, we entered into an exchange agreement with Mr. Bill Wells (a former employee). In lieu of agreeing to dismiss approximately half of what was owed to him, or $220,000, Mr. Wells received the following: (i) cash payments of $20,000; (ii) an unsecured promissory note in the amount of $90,000 to be executed within 30 days of completing new financing(s) totaling at least $3.0 million, (iii) 66,000 common share stock options that vest at a rate of 3,667 per month and have a $0.49 exercise price (if two consecutive payments in (ii) are not made the stock options will be canceled and a cash payment will be required; and (iv) the total amount of forgiveness by creditor of approximately $110,000 shall be prorated according to amount paid.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company closed a financing round that exceeded the $3.0 million threshold and issued an unsecured promissory note in the amount of $97,052 to Mr. Wells. The note, for which monthly installment payments of $5,000 are due, matures 18 months after the issuance date and incurs interest at a rate of 6.0% per annum. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company made payments of $50,000 to Mr. Wells, which resulted in forgiveness of $50,000 of the remaining balance of accrued compensation. The reduction in the outstanding balance met the criteria for troubled debt. The basic criteria are that the borrower is troubled, i.e., they are having financial difficulties, and a concession is granted by the creditor.

 

As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding principal balance on the note was $47,052, and is included in “Current portion of long-term debt“ within the consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2022, the outstanding balance on the note was $97,052, of which $75,000 was included in “Current portion of long-term debt“ and $22,052 was included in “Long-term debt.“ As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, accrued interest on the note was $4,103 and $2,106, respectively.

 

11. INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

 

Basic net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders, amounts are computed by dividing the net income (loss) plus preferred stock dividends and deemed dividends on preferred stock by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year.

 

Diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders amounts are computed by dividing the net income (loss) plus preferred stock dividends, deemed dividends on preferred stock, after-tax interest on convertible debt and convertible dividends by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year, plus Series C, Series D, Series E, Series F and Series F-2 convertible preferred stock, Series G preferred stock, convertible debt, convertible preferred dividends and warrants convertible into common stock shares.

Troubled Debt Restructurings - 2022

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, two of the Company’s creditors forgave $74,785 of debt. The reductions in the outstanding balances met the criteria for troubled debt. The basic criteria are that the borrower is troubled, i.e., they are having financial difficulties, and a concession is granted by the creditor. As of June 30, 2022, the troubled debt restructurings in total would have decreased the net loss by $74,785, with no impact to net loss per share.

 

Troubled Debt Restructurings - 2021

 

As provided in the preceding footnotes, several transactions met the basic criteria for troubled debt, which are that the borrower is troubled, i.e., they are having financial difficulties, and a concession is granted by the creditor. Due to the Company being in default on several of its loans the debt is considered troubled debt. As of June 30, 2021, the total troubled debt restructuring was $179,000; since this amount has already been recorded as a loss on extinguishment of debt, the loss would not have any impact on the per share calculation.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

In addition to historical information, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain “forward-looking statements“ within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act“), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act), which provides a “safe harbor“ for forward-looking statements made by us. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, including statements concerning our plans, objectives, goals, beliefs, business strategies, future events, business conditions, results of operations, financial position, business outlook, business trends, and other information, may be forward-looking statements. Words such as “might,“ “will,“ “may,“ “should,“ “estimates,“ “expects,“ “continues,“ “contemplates,“ “anticipates,“ “projects,“ “plans,“ “potential,“ “predicts,“ “intends,“ “believes,“ “forecasts,“ “future,“ and variations of such words or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based upon our current expectations, beliefs, estimates and projections, and various assumptions, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. Our expectations, beliefs, estimates, and projections are expressed in good faith and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that management’s expectations, beliefs, estimates, and projections will occur or can be can achieved and actual results may vary materially from what is expressed in or indicated by the forward-looking statements.

 

These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or anticipated results, including those that may be set forth under “Risk Factors“ below and elsewhere in this report, as well as in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Examples of these uncertainties and risks include, but are not limited to:

 

 

·

access to sufficient debt or equity capital to meet our operating and financial needs;

 

·

the extent of dilution of the holdings of our existing stockholders upon the issuance, conversion or exercise of securities issued as part of our capital raising efforts;

 

·

the extent to which certain debt holders may call the notes to be paid;

 

·

the effectiveness and ultimate market acceptance of our products and our ability to generate sufficient sales revenues to sustain our growth and strategy plans;

 

·

whether our products in development will prove safe, feasible and effective;

 

·

whether and when we or any potential strategic partners will obtain required regulatory approvals in the markets in which we plan to operate;

 

·

our need to achieve manufacturing scale-up in a timely manner, and our need to provide for the efficient manufacturing of sufficient quantities of our products;

 

·

the lack of immediate alternate sources of supply for some critical components of our products;

 

·

our ability to establish and protect the proprietary information on which we base our products, including our patent and intellectual property position;

 

·

the current outbreak of the Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, the pathogen responsible for COVID-19, which has already had an impact on financial markets, could result in additional repercussions in our operating business, including but not limited to, the sourcing of materials for product candidates, manufacture of supplies for preclinical and/or clinical studies, delays in clinical operations, which may include the availability or the continued availability of patients for trials due to such things as quarantines, conduct of patient monitoring and clinical trial data retrieval at investigational study sites;

 

·

The future impact of the outbreak is highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, and we cannot provide any assurance that the outbreak will not have a material adverse impact on our operations or future results or filings with regulatory health authorities. The extent of the impact, if any, we will depend on future developments, including actions taken to contain the coronavirus;

 

·

The impact of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine on economic conditions in general and on our business and operations;

 

·

the need to fully develop the marketing, distribution, customer service and technical support and other functions critical to the success of our product lines;

 

·

the dependence on potential strategic partners or outside investors for funding, development assistance, clinical trials, distribution and marketing of some of our products; and

 

·

other risks and uncertainties described from time to time in our reports filed with the SEC.

Table of Contents

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.

 

OVERVIEW

 

We are a medical technology company focused on developing innovative medical devices that have the potential to improve healthcare. Our primary focus is the sales and marketing of our LuViva® Advanced Cervical Scan non-invasive cervical cancer detection device. The underlying technology of LuViva primarily relates to the use of biophotonics for the non-invasive detection of cancers. LuViva is designed to identify cervical cancers and precancers painlessly, non-invasively and at the point of care by scanning the cervix with light, then analyzing the reflected and fluorescent light.

 

LuViva provides a less invasive and painless alternative to conventional tests for cervical cancer screening and detection. Additionally, LuViva improves patient well-being not only because it eliminates pain, but also because it is convenient to use and provides rapid results at the point of care. We focus on two primary applications for LuViva: first, as a cancer screening tool in the developing world, where infrastructure to support traditional cancer-screening methods is limited or non-existent, and second, as a triage following traditional screening in the developed world, where a high number of false positive results cause a high rate of unnecessary and ultimately costly follow-up tests.

 

We are a Delaware corporation, originally incorporated in 1992 under the name “SpectRx, Inc.“ and, on February 22, 2008, changed our name to Guided Therapeutics, Inc. At the same time, we renamed our wholly owned subsidiary, InterScan, which originally had been incorporated as “Guided Therapeutics.“

 

Since our inception, we have raised capital through the public and private sale of debt and equity, funding from collaborative arrangements, and grants.

 

Our prospects must be considered in light of the substantial risks, expenses and difficulties encountered by entrants into the medical device industry. This industry is characterized by an increasing number of participants, intense competition and a high failure rate. We have experienced operating losses since our inception and, as of June 30, 2022 we have an accumulated deficit of approximately $144.4 million. To date, we have engaged primarily in research and development efforts and the early stages of marketing our products. We do not have significant experience in manufacturing, marketing or selling our products. We may not be successful in growing sales for our products. Moreover, required regulatory clearances or approvals may not be obtained in a timely manner, or at all. Our products may not ever gain market acceptance and we may not ever generate significant revenues or achieve profitability. The development and commercialization of our products requires substantial development, regulatory, sales and marketing, manufacturing and other expenditures. We expect our operating losses to continue for the foreseeable future as we continue to expend substantial resources to complete commercialization of our products, obtain regulatory clearances or approvals, build our marketing, sales, manufacturing and finance capabilities, and conduct further research and development.

 

Our product revenues to date have been limited. In 2021, the majority of our revenues were from the sale of components of our LuViva devices and disposables. We expect that the majority of our revenue in 2022 will be derived from revenue from the sale of LuViva devices and disposables.

Current Demand for LuViva

 

Based on discussions with our distributors, we currently hold and expect to generate additional purchase orders for approximately $1.0 to $1.5 million in LuViva devices and disposables in 2022 and expect those purchase orders to result in actual sales of $0.5 to $1.0 million in 2022-2023, representing what we view as current demand for our products. We cannot be assured that we will generate all or any of these additional purchase orders, or that existing orders will not be canceled by the distributors or that parts to build product will be available to meet demand, such that existing orders will result in actual sales. Because we have a short history of sales of our products, we cannot confidently predict future sales of our products beyond this time frame and cannot be assured of any particular number of sales. Accordingly, we have not identified any particular trends with regard to sales of our products. In order to increase demand for LuViva, the Company in 2022 is focused on three primary markets: the United States, China and Europe.

 

In the United States, the Company is actively pursuing FDA approval by initiating a clinical trial protocol involving approximately 400 study participants. The protocol was drafted with input from FDA and two prestigious clinical centers that will participate in the study. Additional clinical centers may be added if needed to meet the study’s enrollment criteria. The budget at one institution has been agreed upon and is under negotiation at the other institution. The LuViva devices have been prepared and have passed bench testing in order to begin the study. On July 20, 2022 we announced that the study had been approved by the designated Institutional Review Board and because of that, the study was expected to begin in September of 2022, which would allow the study to be completed in the first half of 2023, however, there can be no assurance that the study will be completed within this timeframe.

 

In China, the Chinese NMPA (National Medical Products Approval) study has begun at four clinical sites. According to enrollment tracking reports sent to us by our Chinese partner SMI on March 11, 2022, testing of 150 patients has been completed in the ongoing clinical trial for Chinese National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) approval. The trial is expected to be completed in the second quarter of this year and submitted for approval shortly thereafter, although there can be no assurance that the study will be completed within this time frame.

 

In Europe, the Company attended a meeting in Bucharest, Romania on November 3-4, 2021, hosted by our central Eastern and Russian distribution partner. The LuViva system was demonstrated for doctors at a local clinic and the head Ob-Gyn physician’s hospital has accepted the LuViva device into service and is expected to order additional Cervical Guides to test patients as part of her practice. 

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Our material accounting policies, which we believe are the most critical to investors understanding of our financial results and condition, are discussed below. Because we are still early in our enterprise development, the number of these policies requiring explanation is limited. When we begin to generate revenue from different sources, we expect that the number of applicable policies and complexity of the judgments required will increase.

 

Revenue Recognition: ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers establishes a single and comprehensive framework which sets out how much revenue is to be recognized, and when. The core principle is that a vendor should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the vendor expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Revenue will now be recognized by a vendor when control over the goods or services is transferred to the customer. In contrast, Revenue based revenue recognition around an analysis of the transfer of risks and rewards; this now forms one of a number of criteria that are assessed in determining whether control has been transferred. The application of the core principle in ASC 606 is carried out in five steps:

 

Step 1 – Identify the contract with a customer: a contract is defined as an agreement (including oral and implied), between two or more parties that creates enforceable rights and obligations and sets out the criteria for each of those rights and obligations. The contract needs to have commercial substance and it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration to which it will be entitled.

Step 2 – Identify the performance obligations in the contract: a performance obligation in a contract is a promise (including implicit) to transfer a good or service to the customer. Each performance obligation should be capable of being distinct and is separately identifiable in the contract.

 

Step 3 – Determine the transaction price: transaction price is the amount of consideration that the entity can be entitled to, in exchange for transferring the promised goods and services to a customer, excluding amounts collected on behalf of third parties.

 

Step 4 – Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract: for a contract that has more than one performance obligation, the entity will allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation separately, in exchange for satisfying each performance obligation. The acceptable methods of allocating the transaction price include adjusted market assessment approach, expected cost plus a margin approach, and the residual approach in limited circumstances. Discounts given should be allocated proportionately to all performance obligations unless certain criteria are met and reallocation of changes in standalone selling prices after inception is not permitted.

 

Step 5 – Recognize revenue as and when the entity satisfies a performance obligation: the entity should recognize revenue at a point in time, except if it meets any of the three criteria, which will require recognition of revenue over time: the entity’s performance creates or enhances an asset controlled by the customer, the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of the entity’s performance as the entity performs, and the entity does not create an asset that has an alternative use to the entity and the entity has the right to be paid for performance to date.

 

Valuation of Deferred Taxes: We account for income taxes in accordance with the liability method. Under the liability method, we recognize deferred assets and liabilities based upon anticipated future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. We establish a valuation allowance to the extent that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be utilized against future taxable income.

 

Valuation of Equity Instruments Granted to Employee, Service Providers and Investors: On the date of issuance, the instruments are recorded at their fair value as determined using either the Black-Scholes valuation model or Monte Carlo Simulation model.

 

Allowance for Accounts Receivable: We estimate losses from the inability of our distributors to make required payments and periodically review the payment history of each of our distributors, as well as their financial condition, and revise our reserves as a result.

 

Inventory Valuation: All inventories are stated at lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined substantially on a “first-in, first-out“ basis. Selling, general, and administrative expenses are not inventoried, but are charged to expense when purchased.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2022 AND 2021

 

Sales Revenue, Cost of Sales and Gross Profit from Devices and Disposables: Revenues from the sale of LuViva devices and disposables for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $5,358, compared to $1,584 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Cost of goods sold was $1,331 during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to nil for the three months ended June 30, 2021. This resulted in gross profit of $4,027 and $1,584 on the sales of devices and disposals during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively. While we currently hold and expect to generate purchase orders for approximately $1.0 to $1.5 million in LuViva devices and disposables in 2022, supply chain issues due to COVID-19 have caused delays in our ability to procure the circuit boards that are needed to ship our products. As of June 30, 2022, we have received cash payments of $512,577 for sales of our products, which will be recognized as revenue when our products are shipped. We anticipate recognizing revenue for these shipments in the second half of 2022.

Research and Development Expenses: Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $9,155, compared to $19,772 in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease of $10,617, or 54%, was primarily due to a reduction in research and development clinical costs and payroll expenses.

 

Sales and Marketing Expenses: Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $36,701, compared to $29,814 in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase of $6,887, or 23%, was primarily due to a higher travel and payroll-related expenses.

 

General and Administrative Expense: General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $676,015, compared to $512,531 in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase of $163,484, or 32%, was primarily due to an increase in consulting and legal fees recognized in the current period. During the current period, the Company’s plans to uplist to Nasdaq were placed on hold, pending improvement in market conditions. Uplist-related expenses totaling $369,435 that were previously capitalized were therefore recognized during the current period.

 

Interest Expense: Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $255,616, compared to $315,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease of $59,384, or 19%, was due to a decrease in debt, resulting in lower interest recognized for outstanding notes payable and convertible debt during the three months ended June 30, 2022 versus the prior year.

 

Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liability: The gain due to the change in fair value of the derivative liability during the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $14,304, compared to nil during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The gain recorded in the current period was due to changes to our stock price during the period, which impacted the fair value of the derivative liability.

 

Loss/Gain from extinguishment of debt: Gain from extinguishment of debt for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $33,553, compared to a loss from extinguishment of debt of $185,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The loss recorded in the prior period was primarily due to a $350,000 prepayment penalty incurred on the Auctus convertible debt. The gain from extinguishment of debt during the three months ended June 30, 2022 was due to forgiveness of debt.

 

Other Income: Other income for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $1,495, compared to $26,528 in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease of $25,033, or 94%, was primarily due to a $26,000 non-recurring write-off of accrued salaries in the prior period.

 

Net loss: Net loss attributable to common stockholders during the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $1,006,554, compared to $1,159,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in net loss of $152,446, or 13% was due to the reasons outlined above and a $43,555 decrease in preferred stock dividends.

 

There was no income tax benefit recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2022 or 2021, due to recurring net operating losses. A full valuation allowance has been recorded related the deferred tax assets generated from the net operating losses.

 

COMPARISON OF THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2022 AND 2021

 

Sales Revenue, Cost of Sales and Gross Profit from Devices and Disposables: Revenues from the sale of LuViva devices and disposables for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $9,983, compared to $1,584 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Cost of goods sold was $2,277 during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to nil for the six months ended June 30, 2021. This resulted in gross profit of $7,706 and $1,584 on the sales of devices and disposals during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively. While we currently hold and expect to generate purchase orders for approximately $1.0 to $1.5 million in LuViva devices and disposables in 2022, supply chain issues due to COVID-19 have caused delays in our ability to procure the circuit boards that are needed to ship our products. As of June 30, 2022, we have received cash payments of $512,577 for sales of our products, which will be recognized as revenue when our products are shipped. We anticipate recognizing revenue for these shipments in the second half of 2022 and early 2023.

The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in research and development clinical costs and payroll-related expenses.

 

Sales and Marketing Expenses: Sales and marketing expenses were $76,943 during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $66,291 during the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $10,652 or 16%. The increase was primarily due to higher travel and payroll-related expenses.

 

General and Administrative Expense: General and administrative expenses were $1,062,461 during the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $1,339,531 during the six months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $277,070, or 21%. The decrease was primarily due to a prior-year charge of $398,000 recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2021 for warrants issued to Mr. Blumberg for consulting services. The decrease was offset by higher legal costs recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

 

Interest Expense: Interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $356,642 compared to $456,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $99,358, or 22%. The decrease was due a decrease in debt, resulting in lower interest recognized for outstanding notes payable and convertible debt during the six months ended June 30, 2022 versus the same period in the prior year.

 

Other Income: Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $3,872, compared to $26,528 in the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease of $22,656, or 85%, was primarily due to a $26,000 non-recurring write-off of accrued salaries in the prior period.

 

Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liability: The gain due to the change in fair value of the derivative liability during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $8,064, compared to a loss of $88,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The change in the fair value of the derivative liability was due to changes to our stock price during the period.

 

Gain from extinguishment of debt: Gain from extinguishment of debt during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $74,785, compared to a loss from extinguishment of debt of $185,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

The gain from extinguishment of debt during the three months ended June 30, 2022 was due to forgiveness of debt.

 

Change in Fair Value of Warrants: Change in fair value of warrants during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was nil, compared to a $448,000 gain recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to (i) a change in the terms of the warrants during 2021, which resulted in reclassification of the warrant instruments from liabilities to equity and (ii) expiration of the warrants previously outstanding.

 

Preferred Stock Dividends: Expense related to preferred stock dividends during the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $629,368, compared to $176,590 during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to payment of a one-time, non-recurring 15% dividends to the Series F and Series F-2 Preferred shareholders, as required by the Series F and Series F-2 Certificate of Designations in the event the Company did not uplist to the NASDAQ stock exchange or file its clinical data intended for FDA approval of LuViva by December 31, 2021. The increase was also due to the timing of the closing of the Series F and Series F-2 Preferred Stock financings, which took place during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and therefore did not result in a full six months of accrued dividends.

 

Net Loss: Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $2,061,552 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to net loss of $1,871,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The reasons for the fluctuation are outlined above.

 

There was no income tax benefit recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, due to recurring net operating losses. A full valuation allowance has been recorded related the deferred tax assets generated from the net operating losses.

Contingencies

 

Based on the current outbreak of the Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, the pathogen responsible for COVID-19, which has already had an impact on financial markets, there could be additional repercussions in our operating business, including but not limited to, the sourcing of materials for product candidates, manufacture of supplies for preclinical and/or clinical studies, delays in clinical operations, which may include the availability or the continued availability of patients for trials due to such things as quarantines, conduct of patient monitoring and clinical trial data retrieval at investigational study sites.

The future impact of the outbreak is highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, and we cannot provide any assurance that the outbreak will not have a material adverse impact on our operations or future results or filings with regulatory health authorities. The extent of the impact, if any, we will depend on future developments, including actions taken to contain the coronavirus.

 

The Russia-Ukraine conflict and the sanctions imposed in response to this crisis could result in repercussions to our operating business, including delays in obtaining regulatory approval to market our products in Russia. The future impact of the conflict is highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, and we cannot provide any assurance that the conflict will not have a material adverse impact on our operations or future results or filings with regulatory health authorities.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no material off-balance sheet arrangements, no special purpose entities, and no activities that include non-exchange-traded contracts accounted for at fair value.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Not applicable.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and the Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), 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 (the “Exchange Act“)) as of September 30, 2018. The controls and system currently used by the Company to calculate and record inventory is not operating effectively. Additionally, the Company lacks the resources to properly research and account for complex transactions. The combination of these controls deficiencies has resulted in a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) were not effective as of June 30, 2022 to provide reasonable assurance that (1) information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and (2) information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

The effectiveness of any system of controls and procedures is subject to certain limitations, and, as a result, there can be no assurance that our controls and procedures will detect all errors or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system will be attained.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
