Reclassification- Certain amounts in prior-period financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to presentation in the current-period financial statements.

 

Loss Per Share - The computation of loss per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)ASC Topic No. 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Shares underlying the Company’sCompanies outstanding warrants, options or note conversion featuresand preferred shares were excluded due to the anti-dilutive effect they would have on the computation.

Recently Enacted Accounting Standards - The FASB established the ASC as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of GAAP for SEC registrants.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases” which was issued to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The amendments in ASU 2016-02 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has evaluated this standard and determined that it will not currently require any adjustment to Sigma’s financial reporting.

 

Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures 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 estimated by management. Significant accounting estimates that may materially change in the near future are impairment of long-lived assets, values of stock compensation awards and stock equivalents granted as offering costs, and allowance for bad debts and inventory obsolescence.

NOTE 4 – Paycheck Protection Plan Loan 

On April 14, 2020, the Company was granted a loan from BOKF, NA dba Bank of Oklahoma in the aggregate amount of $361,700, pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the PPP) under Division A, Title I of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act), which was enacted March 27, 2020. Under the terms of the PPP, PPP loans and accrued interest are forgivable after twenty-four weeks as long as the borrower uses the loan proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll, benefits, rent and utilities, and maintains its payroll levels. The amount of loan forgiveness will be reduced if the borrower terminates employees or reduces salaries during the forgiveness period.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company has used the entire loan proceeds to fund its payroll expenses. As a result, the Company believes that it has met the PPP eligibility criteria for forgiveness and has concluded that the loan represents, in substance, a government grant that is expected to be forgiven. As such, in accordance with IAS 20 “Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance”, the Company has recognized the entire loan amount as Other Income at June 30, 2020.

The Company does not anticipate taking any action that would cause any portion of the loan to be ineligible for forgiveness. However, to the extent that any amount is deemed unforgivable, such amount is payable over two to five years at an interest rate of 1%, with a deferral of payments for the first six months.

Stock Appreciation Rights

On June 23, 2020, the board of directors (the “Board”) of the Company adopted the Sigma Labs, Inc. 2020 Stock Appreciation Rights Plan (the “Plan”). The purposes of the Plan are to: (i) enable the Company to attract and retain the types of employees, consultants and directors (collectively, “Service Providers”) who will contribute to the Company’s long range success; (ii) provide incentives that align the interests of Service Providers with those of the shareholders of the Company; and (iii) promote the success of the Company’s business. The Plan provides for incentive awards that are only made in the form of stock appreciation rights payable in cash (“SARs”). No shares of common stock were reserved in connection with the adoption of the Plan since no shares will be issued pursuant to the Plan.

SARs may be granted to any Service Provider. A SAR is the right to receive an amount equal to the Spread with respect to a share of the Company’s common stock (“Share”) upon the exercise of the SAR. The “Spread” is the difference between the exercise price per share specified in a SAR agreement on the date of grant and the fair market value per share on the date of exercise of the SAR. The exercise price per share will not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a Share on the date of grant of the SAR. The administrator of the Plan will have the authority to, among other things, prescribe the terms and conditions of each SAR, including, without limitation, the exercise price and medium of payment and vesting provisions, and to specify the provisions of the SAR Agreement relating to such grant.

On June 23, 2020, the Company granted, pursuant to the Plan, (i) 60,094 SARs to its President and Chief Executive Officer, (ii) 12,019 SARs to its Vice President of Business Development, (iii) 24,038 SARs to its Chief Technology Officer, and (iv) 18,028 SARs to its Chief Financial Officer. The exercise price of each such SAR is $2.63, which was the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Such SARs expire on the fifth anniversary of the grant date and may be settled only in cash. Additionally, each such SAR will vest and become exercisable in three equal (as closely as possible) installments on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date, subject, in each case, to the applicable SAR holder being in the continuous employ of the Company on the applicable vesting date, and, in the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan), will become immediately vested and exercisable as long as the applicable holder is in the Company’s employ immediately prior to the Change in Control, and will otherwise be on such other terms set forth in the form of Stock Appreciation Rights Agreement.

The Company recognizes compensation expense and a corresponding liability for the fair value of the SARs over the requisite service period for each SAR award. The SAR’s are revalued at each reporting date in accordance with ASC 718 “Compensation-Stock Compensation”, and any changes in fair value are reflected in income as of the applicable reporting date.

The fair value of SAR awards was estimated using the Black-Scholes model with the following weighted-average assumptions for the six months ended June 30, 2020:

On March 26, 2019,24, 2020, we announced the appointment of the Company’s new Business Development Manager, Americas, who will be responsiblethat we were awarded two U.S. patents for developing key accounts through the Company’s Rapid Test and Evaluation Program and for bringingour industry-leading technology, PrintRite3D INSPECT® into deployment across. These two patents, (1) Systems and Methods for Additive Manufacturing Operations; and (2) Systems and Methods for Measuring Radiated Thermal Energy During an Additive Manufacturing Operation further advanced the ability of our software to detect defects and anomalies during the manufacturing process, saving time, money and waste and accelerating the transition of AM to serial production operations in North and South America.production.

 

On March 15, 2019,5, 2020, we announced that we have agreed with Materialise NV, a leading provider of additive manufacturing software and of sophisticated 3D printing services, to evolve our previously announced memorandum of understanding (MOU) to cooperate on the integration of the Materialise MCP Controller with Sigma Labs’ PrintRite3D® technology and have further agreed to enter into a binding joint sales agreement to begin beta customer commercialization of the integrated PrintRite3D® and Materialise Control Platform (MCP) product. The MCP is an embedded hardware and software solution that addresses the growing need for broader and more straightforward control over the additive manufacturing process by giving full control to the end-user. The companies are near completion of the integration and are now positioned to offer a unique product solution for retrofit of existing machines, OEM machine integration and closed loop control.

On March 3, 2020, we announced that we were awarded a public offeringcontract to implement our PrintRite3D Real-Time Melt Pool Analytics technology at Northwestern University. In collaboration with two university research centers at Northwestern University, Northwestern Initiative on Manufacturing Science and Innovation (NIMSI) and Center for Hierarchical Materials Design (CHiMaD), Sigma Labs will integrate the PrintRite3D system to a DMG Mori LASERTEC12 Selective Laser Melting machine. Researchers at NIMSI have developed computer-integrated systems for innovative manufacturing processes, including subtractive, deformation-based and additive processes.

Sigma Labs and Northwestern will collaborate to further validate the performance and capabilities Sigma’s technology to identify real-time defect formations during the printing process. The DMG MORI LASERTEC 12 SLM machine, is yet another new platform for Sigma Labs, further proving out PrintRite3D’s position as the agnostic in process quality system that can be deployed on all major laser powderbed brands and is setting the standard for third party independent quality assurance monitoring of equity securities resulting in net proceeds of approximately $1,679,230, after deducting placement agent commissions and other offering expenses payable by us.metal additive manufacturing systems.

 

On February 26, 2019,2020, we announced that we were namedawarded a membercontract with the Mississippi State University Center for Advanced Vehicular Systems (CAVS), a world-class interdisciplinary research center that uses state-of-the-art technology to address engineering challenges facing U.S. mobility industries The Mississippi State University Center for Advanced Vehicular Systems will install PrinteRite3D on a Renishaw AM400 machine, a new OEM platform for Sigma Labs, further proving out PrintRite3D’s platform interoperability potential to an increasingly large machine base. Per the terms of the Manufacturing Technology Centre (“MTC”) located at Ansty Park, Coventry, UK. Beingagreement, in addition to any research or commercial applications of PrintRite3D®, CAVS has agreed to serve as a member of the MTC enables us to share and provide expertise and solutionsreal-world test bed for a number of MTC’s projects and also network with MTC’s existing members, including some of the UK’s leading aerospace companies.

On February 12, 2019, we announcednew product improvements that we were named a member of the Additive Alliance of Fraunhofer IAPT, a leading network for additive manufacturing (“AM”). As the first US company to be granted a membership in the Alliance, Sigma became part of the global research consortium to advance the development and implementation of AM. The membership enables us to demonstrate our PrintRite3D® technology to key players in the market of metal AM.

On February 5, 2019, we announced that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has issued a Notice of Allowance for U.S. Patent Application No. 15/276,452, “Optical Manufacturing Process Sensing and Status Indication System.” The patent application covers a system of sensors configured to measure optical emissions generated by a scanning heat source during an additive manufacturing (AM) process and to analyze the data collected.will roll out over time.

 

On January 17, 2019, we announced we were awarded 28, 2020, pursuant to a Test and Evaluation Program contractsecurities purchase agreement with certain institutional investors, the investors purchased shares of a leading global materials and service provider in AM. The program is designed to demonstrate the value of Sigma’s PrintRite3D® product capabilities and performance and to validate and quantify the repeatability and variability of AM production processes. So far we have had delays, diversions, and logistical alterations typical of many newly launched programs, yet importantly, there have been no negative performance issues in the RTE test results. The prototype RTE installation was with Materialise in 2018 and culminated in the project announced in June 2019 to integrate Sigma’s technology with Materialise’s MCP control system. Ascreated series of the dateCompany’s preferred stock, warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase such preferred stock for total gross cash proceeds to the Company of this Quarterly Report,$1.6 million. Additionally, on January 28, 2020, pursuant to a securities purchase agreement, the Company’s largest shareholder and certain of our two most advanced RTEs in process, one states an expectationits directors purchased shares of another new series of the Company’s preferred stock and warrants to add a second PrintRite3D® installation, andpurchase the other expectsCompany’s common stock for total gross cash proceeds to enter the phase two evaluation (multiple machinesCompany of differing OEM brands) over the next 60-120 days.$500,000.

The size and quality of the demanding high technology ‘brand name’ companies currently participating in, along with those teed-up to enter the RTE program, appears to confirm that the program is Sigma’s most auspicious highway to success and material revenue driving into 2020 and beyond. The Airbus RTE announcement on July 30, 2019 followed by our OEM double-RTE announcement on August 13, 2019 demonstrates that the market’s uptake of this program initiative is accelerating.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

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 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes. These estimates and assumptions have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Critical accounting policies are those that require the most subjective and complex judgments, often employing the use of estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 1 to the Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. However, we do not believe that there are any alternative methods of accounting for our operations that would have a material effect on our financial statements.

 

Results of Operations

 

Three Months Ended June 30, 20192020 and June 30, 20182019

 

We expect to generate revenue primarily by selling and licensing our IPQA technologies, selling technical support services, contract manufacturing and selling specialty parts and studies to businesses that seek to improve their manufacturing production processes and production-run quality yields. Our ability to generate revenues in the future will depend on our ability to further commercialize and increase market presence of our PrintRite3D® technologies, and it will depend on whether key prospective customers continue to move from AM metal prototyping to production.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2019,2020, we recognized revenue of $33,582,$167,688, as compared to $98,663$33,582 in revenue recognized during the same period in 2018,2019, an increase of $134,106. The increase is primarily due to a reduction of $65,081. $10,000 of the reduction is directly attributable to the absence of any government program work in 2019, while the remaining 55,000 of it is attributable to the 100% dedication of our printer to Internal R&D in the second quarter of 2019 as we accelerated development of the Inspect product,PrintRite3D® unit sale, as well as revenue recognized under the legacy Rapid Test and Evaluation (“RTE”) program and an overall decline in AM revenue.in-house RTE during the quarter.

 

Our Cost of Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $57,684 and 2018 was $60,625, and $68,568, respectively, a reductiondecrease of $7,943.$2,941. The decrease in our gross margin is primarily attributable to the additional travel and laborreclassification of $43,510 of costs associated withto inventory, partially offset by the on-site and remote collaboration involved in initiationcost of the Company’s Rapid TestPrintRite3D® unit sale during the quarter, as well as the ongoing support of legacy RTE programs, including equipment upgrades and Evaluation programs.additional labor costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2019,2020, we had $696,390$2,445,766 in cash and working capital of $685,409,$2,768,591, as compared with $1,279,782$86,919 in cash and a working capital deficit of $1,052,017$98,315 as of December 31, 2018.2019.

 

Our major sources of funding have been proceeds from public and private offerings of our equity securities (both common stock and preferred stock), and from warrant exercises.

In

On April 14, 2020 we were granted a loan from BOKF, NA dba Bank of Oklahoma in the aggregate amount of $361,700, pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the PPP) under Division A, Title I of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act), which was enacted March 2019,27, 2020. Under the terms of the PPP, PPP loans and accrued interest are forgivable after twenty-four weeks as long as the borrower uses the loan proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll, benefits, rent and utilities, and maintains its payroll levels. The amount of loan forgiveness will be reduced if the borrower terminates employees or reduces salaries during the eight-week period. As of June 30, 2020, the Company has used the entirety of the loan proceeds for purposes consistent with the PPP and has not taken any actions that it believes will reduce the amount eligible for forgiveness. As such, the Company believes that the entire amount of the loan will be forgiven. However, to the extent any portion of the loan is determined to be ineligible for forgiveness, such unforgiven portion of the loan is payable over 2-5 years at an interest rate of 1%, with a deferral of payments for the first six months.

On April 6, 2020, the Company closed a publican offering of equity securities in which itthe Company sold and issued 1,400,800to certain institutional investors (a) 493,027 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Shares”) and pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-funded Warrants”) to purchase up to 22,438 shares of the Company’s common stock, and warrants(b) Series A Warrants (the “Private Warrants”) to purchase a totalan aggregate of 420,240515,465 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to a private placement resulting in net proceeds of approximately $1,679,330, after deducting placement agent commissions and other offering expenses payable$1,230,000. If all of the Private Warrants are exercised by the Company.holders thereof, the potential gross cash proceeds to us will be $1,288,663.

 

In May 2019, the Company closed aJanuary 2020, we completed two private placementplacements consisting of equity securities in which it issued 400,000 shares of common stockour newly created Series D and Series E Preferred Stock, warrants to purchase additional shares of Series D Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase a total of 220,000 shares of common stockour Common Stock resulting in net cash proceeds to us of approximately $1,711,124. On March 27, 2020, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, we forced the exercise of a portion of the warrants to purchase our Series D Preferred Stock which resulted in net cash proceeds to the Company of $460,000. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2020, 1,684 preferred warrants were exercised by institutional investors, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $515,000, after deducting placement agent commissions$1,510,548. If all of the remaining warrants to purchase shares of Series D Preferred Stock and Common Stock are exercised by the holders thereof, the potential gross cash proceeds to us will be $5,810,000.

Depending on the amount, if anything, we receive from such exercises and the timing thereof, and the amount of revenues we are able to generate, we may need to raise additional amounts to fund our operations, maintain compliance with the NASDAQ listing requirements and implement our business plan. There is no assurance as to the amount and availability of any required future financing or the terms thereof. Such financing, if in the form of equity, may be highly dilutive to our existing stockholders and may otherwise include onerous terms. If in the form of debt, such financing may include covenants and repayment obligations which may be difficult to meet and that could adversely affect our business operations. There is also significant uncertainty from the affect that the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) may have on the availability and type of financing. To the extent that funds are not available to us, we may be required to delay, limit or terminate our business operations and lose our NASDAQ listing.

As the second quarter of 2020 progressed, the Company continued to be adversely affected by the COVID-19 global economic slowdown, which has resulted in lower revenue than anticipated. Several customers have delayed purchase orders, and although they have not been cancelled, the timing of when they might be received is uncertain. Two key industries with which we do business, aerospace and oil and gas, have experienced a reduction in the global demand for their products due to the pandemic. We have also experienced delays in purchase orders from universities and research institutes. As a result of the decrease in the demand for our products from customers and potential customers in these and other offering expenses payable byindustries, the Company expects to generate less revenue in the short-term. It is impossible to know at this time how long companies will limit capital expenditures and if the industries that have been most negatively affected will resume normal purchasing. However, due to the need to have more flexibility in supply chains with the ability to respond quickly to shortages in parts or products, many predict that the crisis will accelerate the adoption of 3D printing, which would be a positive trend for the Company.

 

In August 2019,To offset the effects of decreased short-term revenue, the Company closedhas taken several steps to reduce cash outflows. Effective May 1, 2020, the Company implemented a public offeringfirm-wide salary deferral program, whereby 15% of equity securitiesall employees’ salaries will be deferred through September 30, 2020. The Company currently expects to repay such deferrals in which it issued 2,875,000 sharesOctober 2020. The Company has also deferred directors’ cash compensation for the first six months of common stock2020 to the end of the year. Our limited ability to travel to customers’ onsite locations to install or upgrade our products has not only lowered our travel expenditures, but has required us to start using newer technologies to instruct users to do certain maintenance tasks, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $1,971,000, after deducting placement agent commissionsincreasing our overall efficiency. We have also reduced our expenditures for conferences and other offering expenses payable by the Company.trade shows and eliminated certain marketing expenses.

 

During the remainder of 2019,2020, we therefore expect to sustain our operations and our commercialization and marketing efforts without a material increase in our cash burn rate. We expect that continued enhancements of our IPQA®-enabled PrintRite3D® technology, that were developed substantially in fiscal 2018 and 2019 and brought to marketincluding the June 2020 release of version 6.0, will further enable us to further commercialize this technology forinto the AM metal market in 2019 and beyond. However, until2020. To support the commercialization of our full suite of PrintRite3D® technologies,technology, we plan to continue funding our development activities and operating expenses by licensing our PrintRite3D® systems and supporting field services, as applicable, and providing PrintRite3D®-enabled engineering consulting services concerning our areas of expertise (materials and manufacturing quality assurance and process control technologies) and contract manufacturing for metal AM, and through the use of proceeds from sales of our securities.

Net Cash Used/Provided by Financing Activities

 

Cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2019 decreased2020 increased to $2,270,178$4,892,944 from $2,946,400$2,270,178 during the same period in 20182019 due to lowerthe receipt of $5,741,100 of proceeds less $820,228 of offering costs, in connection with our January 2020 and April 2020 private and public offerings and exercise of Preferred Warrants. The deferral of payroll taxes pursuant to the CARES Act provided an additional $22,072 in funds. Partially offsetting these cash receipts was the payment of the remaining outstanding principal balance on our convertible note payable of $50,000. Cash provided by financing activities during the same period in 2019 resulted from the receipt of $2,521,220 in proceeds less $326,890 of offering costs in connection with our March 2019 and May 2019 offerings, and $75,848 in proceeds from our publicthe exercise of warrants to purchase common stock in January and private securities offerings inFebruary of 2019.

 

The Company anticipates continued losses in 2019, with any expected increased revenues offset by increased salaries and related expenses in connection with additional employees.

We have no credit lines as of August 14, 2019, nor have we ever had a credit line since our inception.

Based on the funds we have as of August 14, 2019, and the proceeds we expect to receive from rapid test and evaluation engagements for our updated PrintRite3D® hardware and software technology, sales of contract AM manufacturing for metal AM parts, possible sales of our securities and from the repayment of loans made by Sigma, we believe that we will have sufficient funds to pay our administrative and other operating expenses through 2019. Our ability to continue to fund our liquidity and working capital needs will be dependent upon the success of andour efforts to generate revenues from existing and future PrintRite3D®-proof of concept-proof-of-concept contracts, follow-on contracts resulting from successful proof of conceptproof-of-concept engagements, possible strategic partnerships, contract manufacturing orders in connection with our EOS M290, and possibly by obtaining additional capital from the sale of securities or by borrowing funds from lenders to fulfill our business plans. 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. There is no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional funding. The Company is unable to predict the effect that the COVID-19 outbreak may have on its access to the financing markets. If we require and fail to obtain sufficient funding when needed, we may be forced to delay, scale back or eliminate all or a portion of our commercialization efforts and operations.

 

We have no credit lines as of July 23, 2020, nor have we ever had a credit line since our inception.

Inflation and changing prices have had no effect on our continuing operations over our two most recent fiscal years.
