NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIALFINANICAL STATEMENTS – (UNAUDITED)

NINETHREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2015MARCH 31, 2016

 

1.Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2015March 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015.2016. For further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.2015.

 

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. The Company has not generated significant revenue, and has negative cash flows from operations, which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and appropriateness of using the going concern basis is dependent upon, among other things, additional cash infusion. The Company has historically obtained funds through private placements offerings of equity and debt. Management believes that it will be able to continue to raise funds by sale of its securities to its existing shareholders and prospective new investors to provide the additional cash needed to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due, and will allow the development of its core of business. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to continue raising the required capital for its operations.

 

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

This summary of significant accounting policies of the Company are presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company will recognize revenue when services are performed, and at the time of shipment of products, provided that evidence of an arrangement exists, title and risk of loss have passed to the customer, fees are fixed or determinable, and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured. To date, the Company has not had significant revenues and is in the development stage.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalent

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

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements. Significant estimates made in preparing these financial statements include the estimate of useful lives of property and equipment, the deferred tax valuation allowance, derivative liabilities and the fair value of stock options. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of patents that are initially measured at the lower of cost or fair value.  The patents are deemed to have an indefinite life and are not amortized. The patents are assessed annually for impairment, or whenever conditions indicate the asset may be impaired, and any such impairment will be recognized in the period identified.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an equity award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. All grants under our stock-based compensation programs are accounted for at fair value and that cost is recognized over the period during which an employee, consultant, or director are required to provide service in exchange for the award (the vesting period). Compensation expense for options granted to employees and non-employees is determined in accordance with the standard as the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measured. Compensation expense for awards granted is re-measured each period.

 

Determining the appropriate fair value of the stock-based compensation requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected life of the stock-based payment and stock price volatility.  The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value its stock option awards which incorporate the Company’s stock price, volatility, U.S. risk-free rate, dividend rate, and estimated life. On March 24, 2015, the Company granted 2,450,000 stock options with an exercise price of $0.09 per share, and on September 2, 2015 the Company granted an additional 13,500,000 stock options with an exercise price of $0.26 per share. The options will vest 1/25 on a monthly basis starting April 24, 2015 and October 1, 2015, respectively, and terminate seven (7) years from the date of grant or upon termination of employment.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

 

Income (Loss) per Share Calculations

Loss per Share dictates the calculation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares available. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. The Company’s diluted loss per share is the same as the basic loss per share for the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2016 and 2015, as the inclusion of any potential shares would have had an anti-dilutive effect due to the Company generating a loss. The Company has excluded 15,978,33315,975,000 options, 245,000 warrants, and the shares issuable from convertible debt of $1,154,500$1,623,200 for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2015.March 31, 2016.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value. As of September 30, 2015,March 31, 2016, the amounts reported for cash, inventory, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, approximate the fair value because of their short maturities.

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

 

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and
Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

We measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows at September 30, 2015:March 31, 2016:

 

   Total  (Level 1)  (Level 2)  (Level 3) 
              
 Derivative Liability $13,250,698  $-  $-  $13,250,698 
                  
 Total liabilities measured at fair value $13,250,698  $-  $-  $13,250,698 

   Total  (Level 1)  (Level 2)  (Level 3) 
              
 Derivative Liability $7,654,202  $-  $-  $7,654,202 
                  
 Total liabilities measured at fair value $7,654,202  $-  $-  $7,654,202 

 

The following is a reconciliation of the derivative liability for which Level 3 inputs were used in determining the approximate fair value:

 

 Beginning balance as of January 1, 2015 $3,320,943 
 Fair value of derivative liabilities issued  350,291 
 Loss on change in derivative liability  9,579,464 
 Ending balance as of September 30, 2015 $13,250,698 
 Beginning balance as of January 1, 2016 $7,878,599 
 Fair value of derivative liabilities issued  79,715 
 Gain on conversion of debt and change in derivative liability  (304,112)
 Ending balance as of March 31, 2016 $7,654,202

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

In August 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) – Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern ”.Concern”. Currently, there is no guidance in U.S. GAAP about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. The amendments in this ASU provide that guidance. In doing so, the amendments areintended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. The amendments require management to assess an entity’sEntity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). The amendments in this ASU are effective for public and nonpublic entities for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-15 on the Company’s financial statements.

We evaluated the financing transactions in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined that the conversion feature of the convertible promissory note was not afforded the exemption for conventional convertible instruments due to its variable conversion rate. The note has no explicit limit on the number of shares issuable so they did not meet the conditions set forth in current accounting standards for equity classification. The Company elected to recognize the note under paragraph 815-15-25-4, whereby, there would be a separation into a host contract and derivative instrument. The Company elected to initially and subsequently measure the note in its entirety at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The Company recorded a derivative liability representing the imputed interest associated with the embedded derivative. The derivative liability is adjusted periodically according to the stock price fluctuations.

 

6.DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

 

The convertible notes issued and described in Note 5 do not have fixed settlement provisions because their conversion prices are not fixed. The conversion feature has been characterized as derivative liabilities to be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations.

 

During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2015,March 31, 2016, as a result of the convertible notes (“Notes”) issued that were accounted for as derivative liabilities, we determined that the fair value of the conversion feature of the convertible notes at issuance was $350,292,$79,715, based upon a Black-Sholes-Model calculation. We recorded the full value of the derivative as a liability at issuance with an offset to valuation discount, which will be amortized over the life of the Notes.

 

During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2015,March 31, 2016, approximately $185,500$16,300 convertible notes were converted. As a result of the conversion of these notes and the change in fair value of the remaining notes, the Company recorded a loss ingain on conversion of debt and change in derivative of $9,579,464$304,112 in the statement of operations for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2015.March 31, 2016. At September 30, 2015,March 31, 2016, the fair value of the derivative liability was $13,250,698.$7,654,202.

You should read the following description of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes included in this report.

 

Overview

 

We are developing innovative technologies to reduce the cost per watt of electricity produced by Photovoltaic solar modules. The process for producing electricity from sunlight is known as Photovoltaics. Photovoltaics ("PV") is the science of capturing and converting sun light into electricity.

 

We are currently focusing on developing a low cost energy storage solution based on our polymer-based supercapacitor technology that we believe will result in higher energy capacity, lower cost per watt, and substantially longer life of energy storage devices.

 

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 24, 2006, as BioSolar Labs, Inc. Our name was changed to BioSolar, Inc. on June 8, 2006. Our principal executive offices are located at 27936 Lost Canyon Road, Suite 202, Santa Clarita, California 91387, and our telephone number is (661) 251-0001. Our fiscal year end is December 31.

 

Recent Transactions

 

On July 7, 2015,January 21, 2016, the Company announced that it had signed an agreement to extend the funding of its sponsored research program with the University of California, Santa Barbara.

 

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to impairment of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, deferred tax assets and fair value computation using the Black Scholes option pricing model. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions, such as the trading value of our common stock and estimated future undiscounted cash flows, that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions; however, we believe that our estimates, including those for the above-described items, are reasonable.

 

Use of Estimates

 

In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, management utilizes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These estimates and assumptions relate to recording net revenue, collectability of accounts receivable, useful lives and impairment of tangible and intangible assets, accruals, income taxes, inventory realization, stock-based compensation expense and other factors. Management believes it has exercised reasonable judgment in deriving these estimates. Consequently, a change in conditions could affect these estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Our cash, cash equivalents, investments, inventory, prepaid expenses, and accounts payable are stated at cost which approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards (the Simplification Initiative). The Board received feedback that having different balance sheet presentation requirements for debt issuance costs and debt discount and premium creates unnecessary complexity. Recognizing debt issuance costs as a deferred charge (that is, an asset) also is different from the guidance in International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), which requires that transaction costs be deducted from the carrying value of the financial liability and not recorded as separate assets. Additionally, the requirement to recognize debt issuance costs as deferred charges conflicts with the guidance in FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, Elements of Financial Statements, which states that debt issuance costs are similar to debt discounts and in effect reduce the proceeds of borrowing, thereby increasing the effective interest rate. Concepts Statement No. 6 further states that debt issuance costs cannot be an asset because they provide no future economic benefit. To simplify presentation of debt issuance costs, the amendments in this Update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this Update. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of adopting this ASU, if it is deemed to be applicable.

 

In August 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) –  Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern ”. Currently, there is no guidance in U.S. GAAP about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. The amendments in this ASU provide that guidance. In doing so, the amendments are intended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. The amendments require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term  substantial doubt,  (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). The amendments in this ASU are effective for public and nonpublic entities for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-15 on the Company’s financial statements.

 

Management reviewed currently issued pronouncements during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2015,March 31, 2016, and does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed financial statements.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. Significant factors in the management of liquidity are funds generated by operations, levels of accounts receivable and accounts payable and capital expenditures.

 

The condensed financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying condensed financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if we are unable to continue as a going concern. During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2015,March 31, 2016, we did not generate any revenues, incurred a net loss of $10,528,388$477,780 and cash used in operations of $500,737.$227,443. As of September 30, 2015,March 31, 2016, we had a working capital deficiency of $13,962,500$8,871,911 and a shareholders’ deficit of $13,853,921.$8,790,108. These factors, among others raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our independent auditors, in their report on our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 20142015 expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern and suitability of using the going concern basis is dependent upon, among other things, additional cash infusion. In the ninethree months ended September 30, 2015March 31, 2016 we obtained funding through the sale of our securities. Management believes that we will be able to continue to raise funds through the sale of our securities to existing and new investors. Management believes that funding from existing and prospective new investors, and future revenue will provide the additional cash needed to meet our obligations as they become due, and will allow the development of our core business operations.

 


As of September 30, 2015,March 31, 2016, we had a working capital deficit of $13,962,500$8,871,911 compared to working capital deficit of $3,703,333$8,807,278 for the year ended December 31, 2014.2015. This increase in capital deficit of $16,229,320$64,633 was due primarily to an increase in cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses, the issuance of convertible promissory notes, and thea decrease in derivative liability associated with the notes, with a decrease in prepaid expenses.notes.

 

During the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2016, we used $227,443 of cash for operating activities, as compared to $152,611 for the prior period ended March 31, 2015. The increase in the use of cash for operating activities was a result of an increase in net loss, which included an increase in research and development expenses of $45,547 compared to the prior three months ended March 31, 2015.

Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we raised an aggregatewere $0 and $5,491, respectively. The overall net change in investing activities was primarily due to the purchase of $500,000small office equipment and patent expenditures in an offering of unsecured convertible notes.the prior period.

Cash provided from financing activities was $255,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, as compared to $185,000 for the prior period ended March 31, 2015. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising capital from financing transactions and future revenue.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we used $500,737 of cash for operating activities, as compared to $340,324 for the prior period ended September 30, 2014. The increase of $160,413 in the use of cash for operating activities was primarily due to an increase in non-cash net change in derivative liability, amortization of debt discount, and stock compensation, plus an increase in prepaid expense, and accounts payable, with an overall decrease in accrued expenses.

Cash provided in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $13,277, as compared to cash used of $34,679 for the prior period ended September 30, 2014. The overall net change in investing activities was primarily due to the proceeds received for the sale of a piece of equipment in the current period that is no longer needed by the Company .

Cash provided from financing activities was $500,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, as compared to $315,000 for the prior period ended September 30, 2014. Our capital needs have primarily been met from the proceeds of private placements, as we currently have not generated any revenues.

 

We have a material commitment for capital expenditures in the form of a sponsored research agreement with the University of California Santa Barbara during the next 9twelve months.  Although proceeds from our financing activities are currently sufficient to fund our operating expenses through the next four months, we will need to raise additional funds in the future so that we can expand our operations. Therefore, our future operations are dependent on our ability to secure additional financing.  Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. However, the trading price of our common stock and a downturn in the U.S. equity and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek additional financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. The inability to obtain additional capital may restrict our ability to grow and may reduce our ability to continue to conduct business operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may have to curtail our marketing and development plans and possibly cease our operations.

 

We believe that we have assets to ensure that we can continue to operate without liquidation over the next four months, due to our cash on hand, and our ability in the past to raise money from our investor base.  Based on the aforesaid, we believe we have the ability to continue our operations for the next twelve months and will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of our operations.

 

Our financial statements as of September 30, 2015March 31, 2016 have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued their report dated March 23, 20154, 2016 that included an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt in our ability to continue as a going concern without additional capital becoming available. Our ability to continue as a going concern ultimately is dependent upon our ability to generate revenue, which is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing, attain further operating efficiencies and, ultimately, to achieve profitable operations. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

PLAN OF OPERATION AND FINANCING NEEDS

 

We are engaged in the development of innovative technologies that will reduce the cost per watt of electricity generated by Photovoltaic solar modules.  We have developed BioBacksheetTM,BioBacksheetR , our first commercially availablecommercial product, and we are currently focusing on developing by 2016, a low cost electrical energy storage technology that enables higher power, higher energy density, and longer life electrical energy storage.materials for supercapacitors and batteries by 2017.

 


Our plan of operation within the next six months is to utilize our cash balances to further develop and improve our polymer-based energy storagecathode technology for high capacity and components for photovoltaic energy storage.low cost Lithium-ion batteries.  We believe that our current cash and investment balances will be sufficient to support development activity and general and administrative expenses for the next fourfive months. Management estimates that it will require additional cash resources during 2015,2016, based upon its current operating plan and condition. We expect increased expenses during the second half of 2016 as we ramp up prototyping efforts for Lithium-ion batteries incorporating our polymer-based cathode material.  We will be investigating additional financing alternatives, including equity and/or debt financing. There is no assurance that capital in any form would be available to us, and if available, on terms and conditions that are acceptable. If we are unable to obtain sufficient funds during the next fifteen months, we may be forced to reduce the size of our organization, which could have a material adverse impact on, or cause us to curtail and/or cease the development of our products.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, result of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.
