Recent Developments

None.

Impact of Coronavirus Pandemic

Starting in late 2019, a novel strain of the coronavirus, or COVID-19, began to rapidly spread around the world and every state in the chemical analysis industries, primarilyUnited States. Most states and cities have at various times instituted quarantines, restrictions on travel, “stay at home” rules, social distancing measures and restrictions on the types of businesses that could continue to operate, as well as guidance in response to the pandemic and the need to contain it. At this time, there continues to be significant volatility and uncertainty relating to the full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and the various responses to it will impact our business, operations and financial results.

The pandemic has impacted and may continue to impact some suppliers and manufacturers on some of our products. As a result, we have faced and may continue to face longer supply chain lead-times and higher logistics costs. Additionally, costs for raw materials have also started to increase due to availability, which could negatively affect its business and financial results.

The extent to which the pandemic may impact our results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted as of the date of this report, including the effectiveness of vaccines and other treatments for COVID-19, and other new information that may emerge concerning the severity of the pandemic and steps taken to contain the pandemic or treat its impact, among others. Nevertheless, the pandemic and the current financial, economic and capital markets environment, and future developments in the fieldglobal supply chain and other areas present material uncertainty and risk with respect to our performance, financial condition, results of gas/liquid chromatography.operations and cash flows.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:


PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION:The accompanyingpreparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Reflect Scientific, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Cryometrix. Intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.








USE OF ESTIMATES: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, and liabilities, at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenuerevenues and expenses, during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from thoseand related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On a regular basis, we evaluate these estimates.


CASH:  The Company considers all deposit accounts and investment accounts with an original maturity of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.  


REVENUE RECOGNITION:   We have applied the new revenue standard to all contracts from the date of initial application.  We recognize revenue when or as we satisfy a performance obligation.  We generally satisfy performance obligations at a point in time upon shipment of goods or, with our freezers, upon final acceptance of the unit by the customer, in accordance with the terms of each contract with the customer.  


A part of our customer base is made up of international customers.  The table below allocates revenue between domestic and international customers.

COST OF SALES:  Charges to cost of sales These estimates are made on a first-in first-out method (FIFO).  In addition to the component costs, some labor costs are allocated to cost of goods for the direct labor utilized to build the sub-assemblies and finished goods.


ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE:  The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts to provide for losses arising from customers inability to make required payments. If there is deterioration of our customers credit worthiness and/or there is an increase in the length of time that the receivables are past due greater than the historical assumptions used, additional allowances may be required. The Company estimates allowance for doubtful accounts based on the aged receivable balances andmanagement’s historical losses. The Company charges off uncollectible accounts when management determines there is no possibility of collecting the related receivable. The Company considers accounts receivable to be past due or delinquent based on contractual terms, which is generally net 30 days. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had accounts receivable, net of the allowance, of $233,401 and $175,649, respectively.  At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $4,000 and $4,000, respectively.





PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT:  Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Expenditure for minor repairs, maintenance, and replacement parts which do not increase the useful lives of the assets are charged to expense as incurred.  All major additions and improvements are capitalized.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method.  The lives over which the fixed assets are depreciated range from 5 to 7 years, except for computer equipment, which is depreciated over a 3-year life.  


INVENTORIES: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value based upon the average cost inventory method. The Companys inventory consists of parts for scientific vial kits, refrigerant gases, components for the imaging and inspection systems which it builds, and other scientific items. An allowance is recorded when it is determined that the amount owing is at high risk.At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had inventory consisting of raw materials and finished goods, net of allowance, of $695,607 and $624,486, respectively. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the allowance for obsolescence was $106,044 and $106,044, respectively.


INTANGIBLE ASSETS: Intangible assets include trademarks, trade secrets, patents, customer lists and goodwill acquired through acquisition of subsidiaries. The patents have been registered with the United States Patent and Trademarks Office. The costs of obtaining patents are capitalized as incurred. Intangibles, except for goodwill, are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The Company regularly evaluates whether events or circumstances have occurred that indicate possible impairment and relies on a number of factors, including operating results, business plans, economic projections, and anticipated future cash flows. The Company uses an estimate of the future undiscounted net cash flows of the related asset or asset group over the remaining life in measuring whether the assets are recoverable. Measurement of the amount of impairment, if any, is based upon the difference between the assets carrying value and estimated fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques, including cost-based, market and income approaches as considered necessary. The Companys analysis did not indicate any impairment of intangible assets as of the impairment analysis conducted December 31, 2021. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, all of the intangible assets were fully amortized.


GOODWILL: Goodwill represents the excess of the JMST assets acquired over the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but instead is tested for impairment, at a reporting unit level, annually and when events and circumstances warrant an evaluation. The Company evaluates goodwill on an annual basis, as of the end of the fourth quarter, and whenever events and changes in circumstances indicate that there may be a potential impairment. In making this assessment, management relies on a number of factors, including operating results, business plans, economic projections, anticipated future cash flows, business trends and market conditions. The Companys analysis did not indicate any impairment of Goodwill as of the impairment analysis conducted December 31, 2021.


LEASES: In February of 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02 - Leases (Topic 842), which significantly amends the way companies are required to account for leases. Under the updated leasing guidance, some leases that did not have to be reported previously are now required to be presented as an asset and liability on the balance sheet. In addition, for certain leases, what was previously classified as an operating expense must now be allocated between amortization expense and interest expense. The Company adopted this update as of January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition method.





INCOME TAXES:  Deferred taxes are provided on an asset and liability approach whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.


STOCK BASED COMPENSATION: The Company, in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation Stock Compensation, records all share-based payments to employees at the grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued. In accordance with ASC 718-10-30-9, Measurement Objective Fair Value at Grant Date, the Company uses the closing price of the stock, as quoted by NASDAQ, on the date of the grant.  The Company believes this pricing method provides the best estimate of fair the fair value of the consideration given.  Compensation cost is recognized over the requisite service period.


The Company, in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation Stock Compensation, establishes the value of equity instruments issued to non-employees for goods and services by using the closing price of the stock, as quoted by NASDAQ, on the date of the grant.  The Company believes this method fairly establishes the value of the goods and/or services received.


RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT - The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's Accounting Standard Codification Topic 730 Research and Development".  Under ASC 730, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred.  Third-party research and developments costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved.  Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred. 


EARNINGS PER SHARE: The computation of basic profit and loss per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive common stock equivalents during the period.  Common stock equivalents are not used in calculating dilutive EPS when their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.  At March 31, 2022 the Company had 750,000 common stock equivalents outstanding in the form of restricted stock units (RSUs).  These RSUs are added to the shares issued and outstanding to calculate the diluted earnings per share.  There were no common stock equivalents outstanding at March 31, 2021.


RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS: The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting standards in order to determine their effects, if any, on its consolidated results of operation, financial position and cash flows.  Based on that review, the Company believes that none of these pronouncements will have a significant effect on its current or future earnings or operations.


NOTE 3 -   LEASES


We have operating leases for our office and warehouse facility as well as for an automobile.  We used the lease termination dates of November 30, 2023 for the building and July 7, 2021 for the automobile to




calculate right of use (ROU) assets and lease liabilities.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations


Special Note Regarding ForwardLooking Statements


The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the Act) provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of our Company. Our Company and our representatives may from time to time make written or oral statements that are forward-looking, including statements contained in this Annual Report and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in reports to our Companys stockholders. Management believes that all statements that express expectations and projections with respect to future matters, as well as from developments beyond our Companys control including changes in global economic conditions are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Act. These statements are made on the basis of managements views and assumptions, as of the time the statements are made, regarding future events and business performance. There can be no assurance however, that managements expectations will necessarily come to pass. Factors that may affect forward- looking statements include a wide range of factors that could materially affect future developments and performance, including the following:


Changes in Company-wide strategies, which may result in changes in the types or mix of businesses in which our Company is involved or chooses to invest;

Changes in U.S., global or regional economic conditions;

Changes in U.S. and global financial and equity markets, including significant interest rate fluctuations, which may impede our Companys access to, or increase the cost of, external financing for our operations and investments;

Increased competitive pressures, both domestically and internationally;

Legal and regulatory developments, such as regulatory actions affecting environmental activities;

The imposition by foreign countries of trade restrictions and changes in international tax laws or currency controls;

Adverse weather conditions or natural disasters, such as hurricanes and earthquakes, labor disputes, which may lead to increased costs or disruption of operations.





This list of factors that may affect future performance and the accuracy of forward-looking statements are illustrative, but by no means exhaustive. Accordingly, all forward-looking statements should be evaluated with the understanding of their inherent uncertainty.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates


The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited Financial Statements and accompanying notes.  Management bases its estimates on historicalindustry experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results couldmay differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.  The Company believes there have been no other significant changes duringestimates.

For a description of the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, to the items disclosed as significant accounting policies that, in management's Notes tomanagement’s opinion, involve the most significant application of judgment or involve complex estimation and which could, if different judgment or estimates were made, materially affect our reported financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial StatementsCondition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in the Company'sour Annual Report on Form 1010-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.2022 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023.
