NOTE 1
-
SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of Inrad Optics, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”).
All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
The condensed consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do
not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
The results of operations of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for
the full fiscal year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes
included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.
In preparing these consolidated financial
statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through the date the consolidated
financial statements were issued.
Management Estimates
These unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP which requires management to make
assumptions and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses reported in those financial statements.
Management evaluates its assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including
the current economic environment, and makes adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their
effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from those assumptions and estimates.
Significant changes, if any, in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected
in the consolidated financial statements in future periods.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of
cost (first-in-first-out basis) or market. The Company records a reserve for slow moving inventory as a charge against earnings
for all products identified as surplus, slow-moving or discontinued. Excess work-in-process costs are charged against earnings
whenever estimated costs-of-completion exceed unbilled revenues.
Inventories are comprised of the following
and are shown net of inventory reserves:

Income Taxes
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets
and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial
statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statements
carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences
are expected to reverse.
For the three months ended March 31, 2013
and 2012, the Company did not record a current provision for either state or federal income tax due to the losses incurred for
both income tax and financial reporting purposes or the availability of net operating loss carry-forwards to offset against federal
and state income tax.
In evaluating the Company’s ability
to recover deferred tax assets in future periods, management considers the available positive and negative factors, including
the Company’s recent operating results, the existence of cumulative losses and near term forecasts of future taxable income
consistent with the plans and estimates that management uses to manage the underlying business. A significant piece of objective
negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred by the Company over the three-year period ended December 31, 2012
as well as the three months ended March 31, 2013. Such objective evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence
such as our projections for future growth.
On the basis of this evaluation, as of
March 31, 2013, the Company’s management concluded that it is more likely than not that the Company will not be able to
realize any portion of the benefit on the net deferred tax balance of $3,127,000 and therefore the Company continues to maintain
a valuation allowance for the full amount of the net deferred tax balance.
When sufficient positive evidence exists,
the Company’s income tax expense will be charged with the increase or decrease in its valuation allowance. An increase or
reversal of the Company’s valuation allowance could have a significant negative or positive impact on the Company’s
future earnings.
Net Loss per Common Share
Basic net loss per common share is computed
by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common
share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares and common stock equivalents outstanding,
calculated on the treasury stock method for options, stock grants and warrants using the average market prices during the period,
including potential common shares issuable upon conversion of outstanding convertible notes, except if the effect on the per share
amounts is anti-dilutive.
For the three months ended March 31, 2013,
all common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share because their effect is anti-dilutive.
This included 2,500,000 common shares and 1,875,000 warrants issuable upon conversion of outstanding related party convertible
notes, in addition to 965,187 common stock options and grants.
For the three months ended March 31, 2012,
all common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share because their effect is anti-dilutive.
This included 1,008,734 common stock options and grants and 2,500,000 common shares and 1,875,000 warrants issuable upon conversion
of outstanding related party convertible notes.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based
compensation expense is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. The Company estimates the fair value
of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
The
fair value of restricted stock units granted is based on the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date
of the grant. The fair value of these awards, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, is amortized over the requisite service period
of the award, which is generally the vesting period.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01,
Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. This newly issued accounting
standard clarifies that the scope of ASU 2011-11 applies to derivatives, including bifurcated embedded derivatives, repurchase
agreements, and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset
or subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. This ASU is required to be applied retrospectively
and is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after January 1, 2013. As this accounting
standard only requires enhanced disclosure, the adoption of this standard is not expected to impact our financial position or
results of operations.
In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02,
Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. This newly issued
accounting standard simplifies how an entity tests indefinite-lived intangible assets by permitting an entity to first assess
qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a
basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. The more likely than not threshold
is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50 percent. This ASU is effective for annual and interim impairment tests for fiscal
years beginning after September 15, 2012. As the objective is to reduce the cost and complexity of impairment testing, adoption
of this standard did not impact our financial position or results of operations.
NOTE 2- EQUITY COMPENSATION PROGRAM AND STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
The Company's results of operations for
the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 include stock-based compensation expense for stock option grants totaling $38,930
and $58,473, respectively. Such amounts have been included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations
within cost of goods sold in the amount of $20,314 ($25,876 for 2012), and selling, general and administrative expenses in the
amount of $18,616 ($32,597 for 2012).
As of March 31, 2013 and 2012, there were
$180,185 and $323,755 of unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to non-vested stock options, which
are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.2 years and 2.2 years, respectively.
There were 70,000 stock options granted
during the three months ended March 31, 2013. There were no stock options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2012.
The following range of weighted-average assumptions were used to determine the fair value of stock option grants during the three
months ended March 31, 2013:

NOTE 5 – WORKFORCE REDUCTION
In the first quarter of 2013, the Company
instituted a plan to reduce its combined headcount by approximately 11%, in order to reduce costs and align its workforce with
current business requirements while ensuring the Company would continue to meet its customers’ needs. The reductions affected
both the Company’s Northvale, NJ and the Sarasota, FL operations. Annualized savings from the reductions are expected to
be approximately $700,000. Severance and other separation costs of $112,000 were expensed in the first quarter and offset payroll
savings of approximately $45,000. Accrued severance payments are expected to be made in the first, second and third quarters of
2013, in the amount of $38,000, $57,000 and $17,000, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies and
Estimates
Our significant accounting policies are
described in Note 1 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements and further discussed in our annual financial statements
included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. In preparing our condensed consolidated financial
statements, we made judgments and estimates that affect the results of our operations and the value of assets and liabilities
we report. These include estimates used in evaluating goodwill and intangibles for impairment such as market multiples used in
determining the fair value of reporting units, discount rates applicable in determining net present values of future cash flows,
projections of future sales, earnings and cash flow and capital expenditures. It also includes estimates about the amount and
timing of future taxable income in determining the Company’s valuation allowance for deferred income tax assets. Our actual
results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
For additional information regarding our
critical accounting policies and estimates, see the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations” in our annual report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Results of Operations
Inrad Optics, Inc.’s business falls
into two main categories: Optical Components and Laser System Devices and Instrumentation.
The Optical Components segment of the
business is focused on custom optics manufacturing. The Company specializes in high-end precision components. It develops, manufactures
and delivers precision custom optics and thin film optical coating services through its Custom Optics and Metal Optics operations.
Glass, metal, and crystal substrates are processed using modern manufacturing equipment, complex processes and techniques to manufacture
components, deposit optical thin films, and assemble sub-components used in advanced photonic systems. The majority of custom
optical components and optical coating services supplied are used in inspection, process control systems, defense and aerospace
electro-optical systems, laser system applications, industrial scanners, and medical system applications.
The Laser System Devices and Instrumentation
category includes the growth and fabrication of crystalline materials with electro-optic (EO) and non-linear optical properties
for use in both standard and custom products. This category also includes the manufactured crystal based devices and associated
instrumentation. The majority of crystals, crystal components and laser devices manufactured are used in laser systems, defense
EO systems, medical lasers and R&D applications by engineers within corporations, universities and national laboratories.
The Company operates manufacturing facilities
in New Jersey and Florida.
Revenue
Sales for the three months ended March
31, 2013 were $3,077,000, an increase of 8.3% compared with $2,841,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 primarily due
to an increase in shipments to customers in the laser systems and the university and national lab markets. This was partially
offset by a decrease in shipments to customers in the defense market and the process control & metrology market. The decline
in sales to the defense market and the process control & metrology market was spread across most of the Company’s existing
customers in those markets with the exception of a few customers that recorded sales increases.
Sales in the Optical Components category
increased 20.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared with the prior year, but
was
partially offset by sales for Laser Systems Devices and Instrumentation which decreased 7.9% over the same period.
Sales to major customers, who represent
more than 10% of period sales, were unchanged in dollar terms and as a percentage of total sales in the first three months of
2013 compared with the same period in 2012.
The Company’s top five customers
represented 41.4% of total sales in the three month period ended March 31, 2013, compared to 52.8% in the same period in 2012.
Orders during the first three months of
2013 decreased to $2.1 million from $3.0 million in the first three months of 2012.
Order backlog was $4.9 million at March
31, 2013 compared to $5.9 million at December 31, 2012 and $5.2 million at March 31, 2012.
Cost of Goods Sold
For the three months ended March 31, 2013,
cost of goods sold increased as a percentage of sales to 77.3% compared to 74.0% in 2012. Cost of goods sold was $2,378,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to $2,101,000 in the same quarter in 2012, an increase of $277,000 or 13.2%.
Manufacturing wages and salaries including
related fringe benefits, increased by 13.2% during the quarter ended March 31, 2013 compared to last year. The increase in 2013
was 11.3% excluding the impact of the costs recorded in the first quarter of 2013 related to the workforce reduction discussed
in Note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Severance costs included in cost of goods sold, net of associated
payroll savings, amounted to approximately $38,000.
Material costs increased 9.7% during the
quarter ended March 31, 2013 compared with the same period in 2012 but remained relatively unchanged as a percentage of sales.
Gross margin decreased for the three months
ended March 31, 2013 as a result of the factors discussed above. Gross margin in the first quarter of 2013 was $699,000 or 22.7%
versus $740,000 or 26.0% in the same period in 2012.
Selling, General and Administrative
Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses
(“SG&A” expenses) in the three months ended March 31, 2013 decreased to 27.7% of sales compared to 30.1% of sales
the same period in 2012 due to the increase in revenues in 2013. SG& A expenses included approximately $29,000 of accrued
severance costs net of payroll savings from the Company’s reduction of work force in the first quarter. Including these
costs, total, SG&A expenses of $854,000 were unchanged on a period over period basis as the Company has continued to closely
manage discretionary spending while making strategic investments where appropriate.
Loss from Operations
The Company had an operating loss of $155,000
and $114,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The operating loss in 2013 and 2012 primarily reflects
the impact of the level of sales on the Company’s relatively fixed cost structure. The operating loss for the three months
ended March 31, 2013 included the impact of severance costs, net of payroll savings, from the reduction in workforce of approximately
$67,000.
Other Income and Expense
For the three months ended March 31, 2013,
net interest expense was $46,000, an increase from $35,000 in the same period in 2012.
Interest expense for the three months
ended March 31, 2013 was $48,000 compared to $41,000 for the same period in 2012. The increase was mainly attributable to the
addition of a term loan with Valley National Bank in the third quarter of 2012. Interest income during the three months ended
March 31, 2013 was $2,000 compared with $6,000 in the comparable period in 2012, and results from lower average cash balances
in interest bearing accounts over the comparable periods.
In the first quarter of 2013, the Company
sold surplus machinery and recorded a gain of $31,000.
Income Taxes
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets
and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial
statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statements
carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences
are expected to reverse.
For the three months ended March 31, 2013
and 2012, the Company did not record a current provision for either state or federal income tax due to the losses incurred for
both income tax and financial reporting purposes or the availability of net operating loss carry-forwards to offset against federal
and state income tax.
In evaluating the Company’s ability
to recover deferred tax assets in future periods, management considers the available positive and negative factors, including
the Company’s recent operating results, the existence of cumulative losses and near term forecasts of future taxable income
consistent with the plans and estimates that management uses to manage the underlying business. A significant piece of objective
negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred by the Company over the three-year period ended December 31, 2012
as well as the three months ended March 31, 2013. Such objective evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence
such as our projections for future growth.
On the basis of this evaluation, as of
March 31, 2013, the Company’s management concluded that it is more likely than not that the Company will not be able to
realize any portion of the benefit on the net deferred tax balance of $3,127,000 and therefore the Company continues to maintain
a valuation allowance for the full amount of the net deferred tax balance.
When sufficient positive evidence exists,
the Company’s income tax expense will be charged with the increase or decrease in its valuation allowance. An increase or
reversal of the Company’s valuation allowance could have a significant negative or positive impact on the Company’s
future earnings.
Net Loss
For the three months ended March 31, 2013,
the Company had a net loss of $169,000 compared to a net loss of $149,000 for the same period in 2012.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s primary source of
liquidity is cash and cash equivalents and on-going collection of our accounts receivable. The Company’s major use of cash
in the past two years has been for capital expenditures and for the repayment and servicing of outstanding debt.
As of March 31, 2013 and December 31,
2012, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $2,596,000 and $3,089,000, respectively.
On July 26, 2012, the Company entered
into a term loan agreement with Valley National Bank, Wayne, NJ, in the amount of $750,000. The loan is secured with a security
interest in new equipment acquired by the Company in the amount of $825,000 which will enhance the Company’s thin film coating
capabilities. The loan is repayable in equal monthly installments over five years beginning in August 2012 and bears an interest
rate of 4.35% annually. During 2012, the Company made a down-payment of $500,000 on the equipment. An additional installment payment
in the amount of $242,000 was made in the first quarter of 2013. These payments have been included with Other Assets in the consolidated
balance sheet at March 31, 2013. The balance of the purchase price in the amount of $82,500 is due upon final installation of
the equipment which is expected in the second quarter of 2013.
We believe that existing cash resources
held by the Company and anticipated to be generated from future operating activities are sufficient to meet working capital requirements,
anticipated capital expenditures, debt servicing payments and other contractual obligations over the next twelve months.
On July 31, 2012, the maturity dates of
a $1,500,000 Subordinated Convertible Promissory Note to Clarex Limited (“Clarex”) and a $1,000,000 Subordinated Convertible
Promissory Note to an affiliate of Clarex were each extended to April 1, 2015 from April 1, 2013. The notes bear interest at 6%.
Interest accrues yearly and is payable on maturity. Unpaid interest, along with principal, may be converted into securities
of the Company as follows: the notes are convertible in the aggregate into 1,500,000 units and 1,000,000 units, respectively,
with each unit consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant. Each warrant allows the holder to acquire 0.75 shares
of common stock at a price of $1.35 per share and expire on April 1, 2018. The Company paid current interest of $37,500 in the
three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012. The Company expects to make interest payments of $37,500 in the remaining quarters
of 2013 and in each quarter through the maturity date of the notes to satisfy the amounts of interest accruing in each quarter.

Net cash used in operating activities
was $204,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to net cash provided of $595,000 in the same period last year.
Working capital increased by
$203,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to a decrease in working capital of $330,000 in the comparable
period last year.
Accounts receivables increased by $425,000
at March 31, 2013 compared to a decrease of $666,000 the same period last year. The increase was mainly a result of the timing
of the collection of balances in the first three months of the 2013 compared to the prior year. The accounts receivable balance
increased by $596,000 at March 31, 2013 compared to March 31, 2012.
Inventory balances remained unchanged
for the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to an increase of $223,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2012 which was
the result of planned raw material acquisitions to meet the timing of scheduled deliveries for orders placed.
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities
increased by $219,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to a decrease of $113,000 in 2012 principally due to the
timing of payments as the Company optimizes its use of cash.
Non-cash items consist of depreciation
and amortization, stock based compensation expense and the Company’s annual 401K matching stock contribution for the three
months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.
Net cash used in investing activities
was $252,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to $125,000 last year. Capital expenditures for the three months
ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 were $40,000 and $125,000, respectively. The expenditures in 2013 and 2012 were primarily incurred
to refurbish operating facilities in New Jersey and Florida and to purchase manufacturing equipment. In the first quarter of 2013,
the Company made an installment payment of $243,000 towards new equipment being acquired by the Company which was included in
Other Assets at March 31, 2013. The Company also sold surplus machinery during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and received
net proceeds of $31,000.
Net cash used in financing activities
during the three months ended March 31, 2013 totaled $37,000 compared to $1,000 in the comparable period in 2012. The increase
is mainly attributable to the principal payments made on the term loan with Valley National Bank that the Company entered into
in the third quarter of 2012 to finance the acquisition of new equipment.
For the three months ended March 31, 2012,
the net cash used in financing activities also included of proceeds from the exercise of stock options for $1,000. This was offset
by principal payments on long term notes of $3,000.
Overall, the Company had a net decrease
in cash and cash equivalents of $493,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared with an increase of $469,000 in the
corresponding period last year.
