Note 2Going Concern and Management’s Plans

 

Note 2 Going Concern and Management’s Plans

Subsequent to June 30, 2018, the Company sold common stock for aggregate net proceeds of $159,000. See Note 9 – Subsequent Events – Private Placement for details. The Company has not yet achieved profitability and expects to continue to incur cash outflows from operations. It is expected that its research and development and general and administrative expenses will continue to increase and, as a result, the Company will eventually need to generate significant product revenues to achieve profitability. These conditions indicate that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the financial statement issuance date.

 

Based upon the Company’s forecast for continued operating losses, it expects that the cash itThe Company is currently has available will fundfunding its operations into the fourth quarteron a month-to-month basis by means of 2018 while it continues to apply efforts to raise additional capital. Thereafter, the Company will require external funding to sustain operations and to follow through on the execution of its business plan.private placements. Although the Company’s management believes that it has access to capital resources, there are currently no commitments in place for new financing at this time and there is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain funds on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate funds on reasonable terms, it may be required to significantly curtail or discontinue operations or obtain funds by entering into financing agreements on unattractive terms. The Company’s operating needs include the planned costs to operate its business, including amounts required to fund working capital and capital expenditures. 

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern and the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

There is no assurance the Company will continue to receive significant revenues from any of these customers. A reductions or delay in operating activity from any of the Company’s significant customers, or a delay or default in payment by any significant customer, or termination of agreements with significant customers, could materially harm the Company’s business and prospects. Because of the Company’s significant customer concentrations, its gross profit and operating income could fluctuate significantly due to changes in political, environmental, or economic conditions, or the loss of, reduction of business from, or less favorable terms with any of the Company’s significant customers.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

On January 1, 2018, theThe Company adopted ASCrecognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”). The core principle of ASC 606 requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process, than required under existing accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation.

 

The Company adopted ASC 606 for all applicable contracts using the modified retrospective method, which would have required a cumulative-effect adjustment, if any, as of the date of adoption. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements as of the date of adoption. As a result, a cumulative-effect adjustment was not required.following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:

·Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer;
·Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract;
·Step 3: Determine the transaction price;
·Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
·Step 5: Recognize revenue when the company satisfies a performance obligation.

Note 3Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Continued

 

The Company recognizes revenue primarily from the following different types of contracts:

 

·Product sales - Revenue is recognized at the point the customer obtains controlscontrol of the goods and the Company satisfies its performance obligation, which is generally at the time it ships the product to the customer.
·Contract services – Revenue is recognized at the point in time that the Company satisfies its performance obligation under the contract, which is generally at the time it delivers a report to the customer.

 

The following table summarizes our revenue recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations:

Net Loss Per Common Share

 

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of vested common shares outstanding during the period. The following shares were excluded from basic weighted average common stock outstanding:

  For the Three Months Ended  For the Six Months Ended 
  June 30,  June 30,

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting PronouncementsOperating Leases

 

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, “Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting,” (“ASU 2017-09”). ASU 2017-09 provides clarity on the accounting for modifications of stock-based awards. ASU 2017-09 requires adoption on a prospective basis in the annual and interim periods for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 for share-based payment awards modified on or after the adoption date. The Company adopted ASU 2017-09 effective January 1, 2018 and itsleases properties under operating leases. For leases in effect upon adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2018, the FASB issuedof Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-07, “Compensation — Stock Compensation2016-02, “Leases (Topic 718),842)(“ASU 2018-07”)at January 1, 2019 and for any leases commencing thereafter, the Company recognizes a liability to make lease payments, the “lease liability”, and an asset representing the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term, the “right-of-use asset”. ASU 2018-07The lease liability is intended to reducemeasured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted at the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. The right-of-use asset is measured at the amount of the lease liability adjusted for the remaining balance of any lease incentives received, any cumulative prepaid or accrued rent if the lease payments are uneven throughout the lease term, any unamortized initial direct costs, and any impairment of the right-of-use-asset. Operating lease expense consists of a single lease cost calculated so that the remaining cost of the lease is allocated over the remaining lease term on a straight-line basis, variable lease payments not included in the lease liability, and complexity and to improve financial reporting for nonemployee share-based payments. Currently,any impairment of the accounting requirements for nonemployee and employee share-based payment transactions are significantly different. ASU 2018-07 expands the scope of Topic 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation (which currently only includes share-based payments to employees) to include share-based payments issued to nonemployees for goods or services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned. This ASU supersedes Subtopic 505-50, Equity — Equity-Based Payments to Nonemployees. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within that fiscal year. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than a company’s adoption date of Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. right-of-use asset.

Note 10 Revision of Financial Statements for the Quarter Ended March 31, 2018

During the course of preparing the quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, the Company identified certain errors related to cost of revenue not being recorded in connection with a product sale to a customer, which resulted in the understatement of its net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The reason for the error was related to certain information not being provided to the Company’s accounting staff as a result of the Company’s transition of certain accounting duties from its then-Interim Chief Financial Officer, who left the Company in the first quarter of 2018.

Overview

 

The Company owns

KULR Technology Group, Inc., through our wholly-owned subsidiary KULR Technology Corporation, develops and commercializes high-performance thermal management technologies for electronics, batteries, and other components across an array of applications. Currently, we are focused on targeting the following applications: electric vehicles and autonomous driving systems (collectively referred to herein as “E-Mobility”); artificial intelligence and Cloud computing; energy storage; and 5G communication technologies. Our proprietary core technology is a carbon fiber based (Carbon Fiber Velvet or “CFV”)material, with roots in aerospace and defense, that provides what we believe to be superior thermal managementconductivity and heat dissipation in an ultra-lightweight and pliable material. By leveraging our proprietary cooling solutions that ithave been developed through longstanding partnerships with NASA, the Jet Propulsion Lab and others, our products and services make E-Mobility battery powered products safer and more stable.

Our management believes are more effective at conducting, dissipatingthat the E-Mobility industry has created and storing heat generatedwill create significant new opportunities for the application of our technology and know-how. We believe these new opportunities will be further driven by certain changing preferences that we’ve observed in younger generations that must increasingly cope with higher population density, global warming, and the rapidly evolving communications and computing needs of their personal devices and the surrounding infrastructure. As a result, we predict that the younger generations will increasingly prefer to attend meetings by video conference; rent a car, bike, or scooter, or call an electronic system’s internal components (i.e. semiconductor, integrated circuits “chips”) than traditional materials,app-based car service instead of owning a vehicle; and leverage the Cloud to perform tasks traditionally done in person, such as coppershopping for lunch, clothes, electronics and aluminum. KULR’s technologiesother consumer goods that also leverages an expanding E-Mobility delivery network.

In addition to evolving demands led by consumer-preferences, we have observed trending manufacturer-led opportunities in industries that have become increasingly more reliant on the Cloud, on portability and on high-demand processing power. For example, car manufacturers are increasingly providing options that take over the responsibility for driving, diagnosing its own service requirements and analyzing on-board systems data and efficiency. The communications and entertainment industries are leveraging increasingly more powerful and portable devices to deliver live and high-definition content and experiences. These innovations will require high bandwidth communication devices that can be applied insidehandle the power drain and computational requirements to keep up with the sophisticated security and software tools that will power these advanced product offerings. As a result of these manufacturer and consumer trends, we believe that the new generations of high-powered, small form-factor semiconductors are out-pacing the ability to control unwanted heat generation in lithium ion batteries.

The above-described advances in micro technology, portable power, and compact energy efficient devices linked to an ever-widening Internet of Things (“IoT”) via the Cloud are driving opportunities that forms the focus of the Company’s business development plan. We believe that our core technology and historical development focus on improving lithium-ion battery performance and safety, positions us in a competitively advantageous position to enhance key components to the evolving mobile applications for a wide arrayrange of electronic applications where heat is often a problem, suchconsumer products and IoT. We have found that as mobile devices, cloud computing, virtual reality platforms, satellites, internet of things, drones, and connected cars.

Three key vectors have driven advancements in semiconductors and electronics systems – performance, power, and size. These vectors, however, often counteract one another. As chip performance increases, power consumption increases, and more heat is generated as a byproduct. When chip size reduces, there is an increased potential for a hot spot on the chip, which can degrade system performance. Electronicperformance, or even cause spontaneous combustion. However, electronic system components must operate within a specific temperature range on both the high and low end to operate properly. KULR resolves many of the tradeoffs associated with other thermalAfter strenuous testing, we believe we have developed heat management materials. KULR’s productssolutions that significantly improve upon traditional heat storage and dissipation solutions and improve upon their rigidity problems and durability. ItsWe also believe that the traditional solutions are not equipped to handle the evolving marketplace. However, through a combination of custom design services and provision of proprietary hardware solutions, our products are lightweight and reduce manufacturing complexity associated withand provide a lighter weight solution than traditional thermal management materials.materials and, we believe, can meet the heat management demands of components and batteries being designed into the newest mobile technologies and applications.

Our management’s growth strategy has put particular focus on targeting E-Mobility applications for its core technology. We believe we are well-positioned to provide a broad range of E-mobility solutions, and intend to expand our business through internal growth and acquisition. In additionthe case of acquisitions, we seek to thermal management of electronic systems, KULR has developed,acquire businesses in partnership with National Aeronautics and Space Administration (“NASA”) Johnson Space Center (“NASA JSC”), a highly effective, lightweight and passive thermal protection technology, Thermal Runaway Shield (“TRS”) for lithium-ion batteries. KULR’s lithium-ion battery (“Li-B”) TRS product prevents a potentially dangerous combustible condition known as thermal runaway propagation from occurring in neighboring Li-B cells by acting as a shield or barrier in between individual Li-B cells in a battery pack. Although rare, incidents of thermal runaway propagation occurring spontaneously in Li-B cargo shipments and inside electronics, including hoverboards, smartphones, and electric vehicles,related markets that are a cause of public concern.

During the second quarter of 2018, we generated business fromsynergistic to our existing aerospaceoperations, technologies, and automotive customer-base by providing contractmanagement experience. This focus will highlight markets in which we can: (1) integrate our existing technology into the acquiree’s product offerings or simultaneously offer our products and services through the acquiree’s customer base and thermal solution products.channels; (2) gain a leading market position and provide vertically integrated services where we can secure economies of scale, premium market positioning, and operational synergies; and/or (3) establish a leading position in selected markets and channels of the acquiree through a joint broad-based, hi-tech, E-Mobility branding campaign. We continuehave developed an acquisition discipline based on a set of financial, market and management criteria to make progress with establishingevaluate opportunities. If we were to successfully close an acquisition, we would seek to integrate it while minimizing disruption to our existing operations and those of the production of Internal Short Circuit (“ISC”) devices which were licensedacquired business, while exploiting the technical and managerial synergies from NASA and National Renewable Energy Laboratory (“NREL”) in the first quarter of 2018. Although no assurances can be made, we expect to generate revenue from the sale of ISC devices in the second half of 2018. In addition, we expect some of our current design engagements with potential customers in aerospace, defense and battery storage products to reach early production in the second half of 2018 and into 2019. However, no assurances can be made that such design engagements will result in production agreements or purchase orders.integration.

 

We have not yet achieved profitability and expect to continue to incur cash outflows from operations. It is expected that our research and development and general and administrative expenses will continue to increase and, as a result, we will eventually need to generate significant product revenues to achieve profitability. These conditions indicate that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the financial statement issuance date. Historically, we have been able to raise funds to support our business operations, although there can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional funds in the future.

Cost of Revenues

 

Cost of revenues consists of the cost of our products as well as labor expenses directly related to product sales or research contract services.

 

Generally, we earn greater margins on revenue from products compared to revenue from services, so product mix plays an important part in our reported average margins for any period. Also, we are introducing new products in the early stages of our development cycle and the margins earned can vary significantly between period, customers and products due to the learning process, customer negotiating strengths, and product mix.

Our customers and prospective customers are large organizations with multiple levels of management, controls/procedures, and contract evaluation/authorization. Furthermore, our solutions are new and do not necessarily fit into pre-existing patterns of purchase commitment. Accordingly, the business activity cycle between expression of initial customer interest to shipping, acceptance and billing can be lengthy, unpredictable and lumpy, which can influence the timing, consistency and reporting of sales growth.

For the three months ended June 30, 20182019 and 2017,2018, cost of revenues was $33,470$28,550 and $56,195,$33,470, respectively, a decrease of $22,725,$4,920, or 40%15%. The decrease was primarily due to increased costs in 2017 to produce the PCM heat sinks, as well as due to the fact that our 2018lower sales were of higher margin products. The gross margin percentage was 49% and 80% for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decrease in margins during the 2019 period was primarily due to a reduction in sales of higher margin products as compared to the 2018 period.

For the six months ended June 30, 20182019 and 2017,2018, cost of revenues was $90,067 and $183,417, and $56,195, respectively, an increasea decrease of $127,222,$93,350, or 226%51%. The increasedecrease was primarily due to costsincreased volume of sales of our lowercontracts in the 2018 period, which requested additional labor and materials. The gross margin higher cost OEMpercentage was 64% and 54% for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The increase during the 2019 period resulted primarily from a more favorable product mix being sold as well as increased labor costs.compared to the previous period.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development (“R&D”) includes expenses incurred in connection with the R&D of our CFV thermal management solution. R&D expenses are expensed as they are incurred.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2018,2019, R&D expenses increaseddecreased by $82,558,$4,459, or 227%4%, to $119,006$114,547 from $36,448$119,006 for the three months ended June 30, 2017.2018. The increasedecrease is primarily attributable to an increase in salaries and other benefits due to a headcount increase of 9 employees.expenses associated with R&D supplies.

For the six months ended June 30, 2018,2019, R&D expenses increaseddecreased by $189,062,$10,951, or 381%5%, to $238,690$227,739 from $49,628$238,690 for the six months ended June 30, 2017.2018. The increasedecrease is primarily attributable to an increase in salaries and other benefits due to a headcount increase of 9 employees.expenses associated with R&D supplies.

 

We expect that our R&D expenses will continue to increase.

Research and Development – Related Parties

R&D – related parties include expenses associated with the development ofincrease as we expand our CFV thermal management solutions provided by Energy Science Laboratories, Inc. (“ESLI”), a R&D company owned by our Chief Technology Officer (“CTO”), as well as services provided by our CTO. R&D – related parties expenses are expensed as they are incurred.

For the three months ended June 30, 2018, R&D – related parties decreased by $269,942, or 100%, to $0 from $269,942 for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The decrease is due to the elimination of R&D services provided by ESLI during the current period, which resulted from the Company hiring its own research and development staff in June 2017.

For the six months ended June 30, 2018, R&D – related parties decreased by $401,057, or 100%, to $0 from $401,057 for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

We have not yet achieved profitability and expect to continue to incur cash outflows from operations. It is expected that our research and development and general and administrative expenses will continue to increase and, as a result, we will eventually need to generate significant product revenues and/or raise additional capital to fund our operations. These conditions indicate that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the financial statement issuance date.

Based upon our forecast for continued operating losses, we expect that the cash we

We are currently have available will fundfunding our operations into the fourth quarter of 2018 while we continue to apply efforts to raise additional capital. Thereafter, we will require external funding to sustain operations and to follow through on the execution ofa month-to-month basis. Although our business plan. Although management believes that we have access to capital resources, there are currently no commitments in place for new financing at this time and there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain funds on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate funds on reasonable terms, we may be required to significantly curtail or discontinue operations or obtain funds by entering into financing agreements on unattractive terms. Our operating needs include the planned costs to operate our business, including amounts required to fund working capital and capital expenditures.

 

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which contemplate our continuation as a going concern and the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The carrying amounts of assets and liabilities presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements do not necessarily purport to represent realizable or settlement values. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

There are no off-balance sheet arrangements between us and any other entity that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on financial conditions, changes in financial conditions, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, concluded that, as of the end of the period covered inby this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provideat the reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The following material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting were identified as of June 30, 2018 in the normal course:

1.We have inadequate controls to ensure that information necessary to properly record transactions is adequately communicated on a timely basis to those responsible for financial reporting.

14

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, within the meaning of Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) Auditing Standard AS 2201, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

We intend to address the weakness identified above by increasing the internal controls over the (a) vendor management process and (b) purchase to pay process.

Notwithstanding the assessment that our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective and that there is a material weakness as identified herein, we believe that our condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report fairly present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods covered thereby in all material respects.level.
