Basis of Presentation, Going Concern and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Organization


Puradyn Filter Technologies Incorporated (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, is engaged in the manufacturing, distribution and sale of bypass oil filtration systems under the trademark Puradyn® primarily to companies within targeted industries. The Company holds the exclusive worldwide manufacturing and marketing rights for the Puradyn products through direct ownership of various patents.


Basis of Presentation


The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-K. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of a normal and recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month and nine-month periodsperiod ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2019 may not necessarily be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017.2019.


For further information, refer to the Company's financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2018.


Revenue Recognition


The Company recognizes revenue from product sales to customers, distributors and resellers when products that do not require further services or installation by the Company are shipped, when there are no uncertainties surrounding customer acceptance, and when collectability is reasonably assured in accordance with FASB ASC 605,Revenue Recognition, as amended and interpreted.assured. Cash received by the Company prior to shipment is recorded as deferred revenue. Sales are made to customers under terms allowing certain limited rights of return and other limited product and performance warranties for which provision has been made in the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements.


Amounts billed to customers in sales transactions related to shipping and handling, represent revenues earned for the goods provided and are included in net sales. Costs of shipping and handling are included in cost of products sold.


The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with Topic 606 which was adopted at the beginning of fiscal year 2018 using the modified retrospective method. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The Company did not recognize any cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings upon adoption as the effect was immaterial. The adoption of these standards did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed statements of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2018.


Use of Estimates


The preparation of condensed financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. At September 30, 2017March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2016,2018, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and notes payable to stockholder approximate their fair values as of September 30, 2017March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2016,2018, respectively, because of their short-term natures.

PURADYN FILTER TECHNOLOGIES INCORPORATED

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Accounts Receivable


Accounts receivable are recorded at fair value on the date revenue is recognized. The Company provides allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to repay their obligation. If the financial condition of the Company's customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to repay, additional allowances may be required. The Company provides for potential uncollectible accounts receivable based on specific customer identification and historical collection experience adjusted for existing market conditions. If market conditions decline, actual collection experience may not meet expectations and may result in decreased cash flows and increased bad debt expense.


The policy for determining past due status is based on the contractual payment terms of each customer, which are generally net 30 or net 60 days. Once collection efforts by the Company and its collection agency are exhausted, the determination for charging off uncollectible receivables is made.


Inventories


Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or marketnet realizable value using the first in, first out (FIFO) method. Net realizable value is defined as sales price less cost of completion, disposable and transportation and a normal profit margin. Production costs, consisting of labor and overhead, are applied to ending finished goods inventories at a rate based on estimated production capacity. Excess production costs are charged to cost of products sold. Provisions have been made to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their net realizable value.


Property and Equipment


Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, except for assets held under capital leases, for which the Company records depreciation and amortization based on the shorter of the asset’s useful life or the term of the lease. The estimated useful lives of property and equipment range from 3 to 5 years. Upon sale or retirement, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are eliminated from their respective accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is included in results of operations. Repairs and maintenance charges, which do not increase the useful lives of the assets, are charged to operations as incurred.


Patents


Patents are stated at cost. Amortization is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the patents. The estimated useful lives of patents are 17 toapproximately 20 years. Upon retirement, the cost and related accumulated amortization are eliminated from their respective accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is included in results of operations.


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets


Management assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets when indicators of impairment are present. If such indicators are present, recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing the undiscounted net cash flows estimated to result from those assets over the remaining life to the assets’ net carrying amounts. If the estimated undiscounted net cash flows are less than the net carrying amount, the assets would be adjusted to their fair value, based on appraisal or the present value of the undiscounted net cash flows.

Product Warranty Costs


As required by FASB ASC 460,Guarantor’s Guarantees, the Company is including the following disclosure applicable to its product warranties.


The Company accrues for warranty costs based on the expected material and labor costs to provide warranty replacement products. The methodology used in determining the liability for warranty cost is based upon historical information and experience.  The Company's warranty reserve is included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed financial statements and is calculated as the gross sales multiplied by the historical warranty expense return rate. For the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017,March 2019, there was no change to the reserve for warranty liability as the reserve balance was deemed sufficient to absorb any warranty costs that might be incurred from the sales activity for the period.


The following table shows the changes in the aggregate product warranty liability for the nine -monthsthree months ended September 30, 2017:March 31, 2019:

ResearchEngineering and Development


ResearchEngineering and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Income Taxes


The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740,Income Taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.


Stock Option Plans


We adopted FASB ASC 718,Compensation-Stock Compensation, effective January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective application method of adoption which requires us to record compensation cost related to unvested stock awards as of December 31, 2005 by recognizing the amortized grant date fair value in accordance with provisions of FASB ASC 718 on straight line basis over the service periods of each award. We have estimated forfeiture rates based on our historical experience. Stock option compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2016 has been recognized as a component of cost of goods sold and general and administrative expenses in the accompanying financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017.March 31, 2019.

The Company leases its employees from a payroll leasing company. The Company’s leased employees meet the definition of employees as specified by FASB Interpretation No. 44 for purposes of applying FASB ASC 718.


Stock options and warrants issued to consultants and other non-employees as compensation for services provided to the Company are accounted for based on the fair value of the services provided or the estimated fair market value of the option or warrant, whichever is more reliably measurable in accordance withFASB ASC 505,withEquity,,and FASB ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, including related amendments and interpretations. The related expense is recognized over the period the services are provided.


Credit Risk


The Company minimizes the concentration of credit risk associated with its cash by maintaining its cash with high quality federally insured financial institutions. However, cash balances in excess of the FDIC insured limit of $250,000 are at risk. At September 30, 2017March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2016,2018, respectively, the Company did not have cash balances above the FDIC insured limit. The Company performs ongoing evaluations of its significant trade accounts receivable customers and generally does not require collateral. An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained against trade accounts receivable at levels which management believes is sufficient to cover probable credit losses. The Company also has some customer concentrations, and the loss of business from one or a combination of these significant customers, or an unexpected deterioration in their financial condition, could adversely affect the Company’s operations. Please refer to Note 15 for further details.


Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share


FASBThe Company uses ASC 260,260-10,Earnings Per Share, requires a dual presentation of for calculating the basic and diluted earningsincome (loss) per share. However, becauseThe Company computes basic income (loss) per share by dividing net income (loss) and net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. As of March 31, 2019 and 2018, there were 12,558,336 and 3,956,412 shares, respectively, issuable upon the Company's net losses, the effectexercise of outstanding stock options and warrants, would be anti-dilutive and, accordingly, isrespectively.


Common stock equivalent shares are excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share. The number of such shares excluded from the computation ofnet loss per share was 4,175,126 and 5,241,196if their effect is anti-dilutive. The Company had net income for the nine monthsthree month period ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2019. A separate computation of diluted earnings per share is presented using the treasury stock method and 2016, respectively.the common stock equivalents did not have any effect on net income per share.


Leases


In connection with our lease agreement for our Office in Boynton Beach, Florida, the Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2016-02, Leases. As such, the Company recorded an operating right of use asset and an operating lease liability as of March 31, 2019.


Reclassifications


Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In August 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date” defers the effective date ASU No. 2014-09 for all entities by one year. Public business entities, certain not-for-profit entities, and certain employee benefit plans should apply the guidance in Update 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. All other entities should apply the guidance in Update 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. All other entities may apply the guidance in ASU No. 2014-09 earlier as of an annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. All other entities also may apply the guidance in Update 2014-09 earlier as of an annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning one year after the annual reporting period in which the entity first applies the guidance in ASU No. 2014-09. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, "Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments," which aims to eliminate diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows under Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows, and other Topics. ASU 2016-15 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2017.  The Company has not yet determined the potential effects of the adoption of ASU 2016-15 on its financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718)” (“ASU 2016-09”). This guidance which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the full impact of the new standard.


In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,Leases, which will amend current lease accounting to require lessees to recognize (i) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis, and (ii) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. ASU 2016-02 does not significantly change lease accounting requirements applicable to lessors; however, certain changes were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model. This standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.


All other newly issued accounting pronouncements not yet effective have been deemed either immaterial or not applicable.

Going Concern


The Company's unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has sustained losses since inception throughCompany does not have sufficient revenues and income to fully fund the nine-monthsoperations. During the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2019 and 2018 the Company used net cash in operations of $431,108$229,331 and $1,045,567 during the nine-months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016,$271,757, respectively. As a result, the Company has had to rely principally on stockholder loans and related parties to fund its activities to date. The principal stockholder, who is a member of our Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, has recently advised the Company that he is unable to continue to provide working capital advances to the Company.  In addition, we owe this affiliate $7,768,349 in notes payable which mature on December 31, 2018.  We do not have sufficient funds to pay our operating expenses through the balance of the fiscal year or to satisfy our obligations as they become due.  If the Company does not raise funds as needed, of which there are no assurances, the Company will be unable to continue our existing business and operations.

Leases


Operating right of use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date. Operating lease liabilities represent the present value of lease payments not yet paid. Operating right of use  assets represent our right to use an underlying asset and are based upon the operating lease liabilities adjusted for prepayments or accrued lease payments, initial direct costs, lease incentives, and impairment of operating lease assets. To determine the present value of lease payments not yet paid, we estimate incremental secured borrowing rates corresponding to the maturities of the leases. As we have outstanding secured debt, we used the rate based on loan of 4%.


Our office lease contains rent escalations over the lease term. We recognize expense for this office lease on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Additionally, tenant incentives used to fund leasehold improvements are recognized when earned and reduce our right-of-use asset related to the lease. These are amortized through the right-of-use asset as reductions of expense over the lease term.


The Company leases its office and warehouse facilities in Boynton Beach, Florida under a long-term non-cancellable lease agreement, which contains renewal options and rent escalation clauses. As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2019, a security deposit of $34,970 is included in noncurrent assets in the accompanying balance sheet. On September 27, 2012 the Company entered into a non-cancellable six-year lease agreement for the same facilities commencing August 1, 2013 and expiring July 31, 2019. The total minimum lease payments over the remaining term of the current lease amount to $302,639.$180,826.


In January 2017, the Company renewed the lease at an annual expense of $8,500 on a condominium in Ocean Ridge, Florida until December 20, 2017.


In January 2015On June 29, 2018, the Company entered into a non-cancellable five-year lease for the same facilities commencing August 1, 2019 and expiring July 31, 2024. The lease will require an initial rent of $14,899 per month, beginning August 1, 2019 for the first year, increasing by 3% per year to $16,769 per month in the fifth year. In addition, the Company is responsible for all operating expenses and utilities. As part of the lease the landlord agreed to reimburse the Company $58,000 towards the replacement of air conditioning units, upon written request. As of December 31, 2018 the Company had received all of the reimbursement.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.


The following discussion of our unaudited condensed financial condition and results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed financial statements and the notes to those statements that are included elsewhere in this report. Our discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 10, 2018 (the “2018 10-K”), and our subsequent filings with the SEC. We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements.  All information in this section for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 is unaudited and derived from the unaudited condensed financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report; unless otherwise noted, all information for the year ended December 31, 2018 is derived from our audited financial statements appearing in the 2018 10-K.


OVERVIEW


Our company


We design, manufacture, market and distribute worldwide the Puradyn® bypass oil filtration system for use with substantially all internal combustion engines and hydraulic equipment that use lubricating oil. Working in conjunction with the equipment’s primary oil filter, thePuradynsystem cleans oil by providing a second circuit of oil filtration and treatment to continually remove solid and liquid contaminants from the oil through a sophisticated and unique filtration and absorption process. ThePuradynsystem consists of a base filtration unit or housing that is connected via hoses or steel tubing to the engine or hydraulic system, along with filter elements that reside inside the filtration unit and are replaced periodically to maintain top performance. We believe that our filter is unique in that it incorporates an additive package to replenish depleted base additive levels in engine lubricating oil. BecausePuradyn-filtered lubricating oil is kept in a continually clean state and within engine manufacturers’ specification, our system has been used effectively to safely and significantly extend oil-drain intervals and to extend the time between engine overhauls.


Our core product, the patentedPuradynbypass oil filtration system, is offered in two primary applications, MTS engine systems and custom-engineered MTS hydraulic systems, which can be attached to almost any engine or hydraulic application. AllPuradynsystems are compatible with virtually all standard and synthetic oils on the market, and they work with engines using gasoline, diesel, propane or natural gas. We are also the sole manufacturer and provider ofPuradynreplacement filter elements for thePuradynsystem. Our products are marketed to numerous industries that include hydraulic applications, and other users of engines or equipment that utilize up to 50 weight oil for lubrication. We focus our sales strategy on individual sales and distribution efforts as well as on the development of a worldwideglobal distribution network that will not only sell, but also install and support our product. We currently have a network of over 55 domestic and international distributors and dealers; however, the majority of our products are sold through a limited number of distributors.


Sales of the Company’s products, the Puradyn® bypass oil filtration system and replaceable filter elements depend principally upon end user demand for such products.  We continue to market our product and its benefits through direct contact efforts with our distributors, direct customers, and original equipment manufacturers.


Our sales and marketing efforts target industries and potential customers open to innovative methods to reduce oil maintenance costs. We believe these businesses are searching for new and progressive ways to better maintain their equipment, including bypass oil filtration.

DistributionNow (DNOW) joined the Puradyn distributor network early in 2016 and effective October 2017, is now thebecame exclusive Master Distributordistributor for the oil and gas industry.  We believe thatindustry in September 2017. With 300 locations worldwide, DNOW provides the potential to reach to new markets and customers which we would otherwise not be able to effectively reach, and consistently support our product on a global basis. MNI Diesel, LLC (MNI) joined the Puradyn distributor network in 2012, and in August 2018, they became the exclusive distributor of Puradyn products to the commercial marine industry for the Ohio and Mississippi River Valleys and the U.S. Gulf Coast of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama. In addition to the DNOW hasnetwork and MNI, we currently have approximately 300 outlets worldwide45 distributors and dealers and manufacturer representatives that have the potential to sell and/or service thePuradyn system.  As exclusive global distributor forsystem in the U.S. and internationally. Today our products are found around the world in a number of industries, including oil and gas, servicespower generation, construction and forestry, commercial marine, mining, and transportation.






First quarter of 2019 business highlights


·

Revenues in the quarter were negatively impacted by decisions from a few customers to delay orders of new systems beginning in early November 2018 and continuing through the first quarter, due to the market uncertainty driven by a precipitous drop and slow rebound in oil prices and equity shares overall during that period,

·

The delay of one single customer’s order of new systems, which would have fulfilled the second half of their order that began in the fourth quarter of 2018, represents almost the entire difference in sales between this quarter and the same period in 2018.

·

Filter sales were lower compared to the first quarter of 2018 due to two customers who were replenishing filter inventories with large orders in early 2018 and rig count declines that began in the fourth quarter of 2018 and are not expected to rebound until later in the second quarter of this year.

·

Despite the lower than expected sales recognized this quarter, we believe we continue to make progress in engaging many more prospective customers across the pressure pumping and midstream categories within oil and gas, and we believe the stabilization of the oil and gas industry in the second quarter will result in more trials and eventual roll-outs.


Key strategies:


During the balance of 2019 we will continue to focus our relationship with DNOW increased our potential reach to new marketssales and customers within this industry, whichmarketing efforts on:


·

Further adoption of Puradyn in the pressure pumping and midstream/pipeline segments of the oil and gas industry;

·

Increased marketing focus on the commercial marine segment, with focus on geographies not currently covered by MNI; and

·

Further expansion in key international markets through new and existing distributors.


In addition, from an operating standpoint we had not previously been able to effectively develop. Sales to DNOW represented 39% of our netare placing additional emphasis on:


·

Managing materials costs and preparing for any impacts from new tariffs;

·

Restructuring our distributor network and pricing levels; and

·

Optimizing operating capacity and efficiency.


Outlook


We attribute the decrease in sales in the ninefirst quarter of 2019 compared to the three months then ended September 30, 2017.


We have foundin 2018 to a few customers delaying orders due to the pricerapid decline of oil not only affects our customersmarket certainty, especially in the oil and gas industry but all ancillary industriessegment, that began in December 2018 and continued through the first quarter. Nevertheless, we continue to engage more prospective customers than we have had traditionally. Evaluations continue to increase, however these can run between 3 and 12 months. Our focus on the pressure pumping and midstream segments, both of which we believe may provide double the opportunity of our existing land rig business, will be supported by expanded marketing efforts through our DNOW relationship and the sharing of positive results by early adopters, such as Legend Energy Services who proceeded to make Puradyn standard on their entire fleet of pressure pumping engines within a few months of beginning testing in 2018. We believe our efforts to drive further growth in the commercial marine segment will be led by MNI Diesel, who is our exclusive distributor along the U.S. Gulf Coast and up through the Mississippi and Ohio River valleys. MNI has installed hundreds of Puradyn systems and has witnessed their performance first hand, which makes them a very credible advocate. MNI’s customers serve. have experienced oil life extensions of more than 5 times, saving an average of $7,000 annually per vessel.


The oilapplicability of Puradyn bypass filtration to a wide range of industrial engine uses and gas industry,hydraulic systems is becoming clearer, and people responsible for the maintenance and cost mitigation of this machinery are increasingly interested in particular,the proven results of our systems.

Gross profit


Our gross profit margins for the first quarter of 2019 decreased from 43% in the first quarter of 2018 to 32% in the first quarter of 2019. The decrease in our gross profit margins in the first quarter of 2019 is attributable to reduced facility utilization due to decreased sales which was hardest hitpartial offset by a decrease in the reserve for slow moving inventory of $40,537 during the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 We have been advised by several of our suppliers that prices for various raw materials are being increased as a result of the loss of some of their primary suppliers and higher prices with their secondary suppliers and the unknown impact of recently enacted tariffs by the downturn in oil prices in 2015 and 2016 but as oil drilling rigs return to service and oil prices level off,current administration. However, we are resumed  orders for replacement filtersexploring and implementing measures to help mitigate the impact on our costs. We notified our customers of pricing increases effective October 1, 2018 which varied by product, and we will continue to review cost of materials increases and adopt further pricing action in the future as warranted.


Total operating costs

Our total operating costs which include salaries and wages and selling and administrative expenses increased during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 due to primarily to the hiring of our new installations. Based on industry intelligenceCEO in May 2018. The additional expense was offset by the decision not fill a position vacated voluntarily and the impact of two employees who are now being paid only from oil field services firm Baker Hughes as published online weekly on its website, the number of US oil rigsdeferred compensation. The increases in service increased 41%selling and administrative expenses during the first nine monthsquarter of 2017 over the same time period in 2016, even with a slight decrease of 8.7% in 2017 for the price of NYMEX (WTI) crude oil. As the oil industry continues to recover in 2017, our customers in this segment are renewing orders for replacement filter elements and new purchases as their equipment continues to go back into service. Our sales to this industry for the nine months 2017 versus the first nine months 2016 increased 72%. However, some customers are recovering faster than others as 2017 is still considered a transition year during which time major oil companies are still cutting costs.


Puradyn also sells directly to other independent distributors outside of the oil and gas industry.


While our revenues increased in the three and nine months ended September 30, 20172019 from the comparable period in 2016,2018 is also attributable to increases in non-cash expenses associated with stock compensation to employees and our revenues remain insufficientdecision to fundrestart targeted advertising. We anticipate that our operatingselling and administration expenses despite our efforts to reduce certain overhead costs. We rely almost exclusively on loans from our Chief Executive Officer to pay our operating expenses, including the purchasewill increase slightly throughout 2019, inclusive of raw materials, paymentcommunication costs, office supplies, and other components of salaries and general overheadadministrative expenses. Our liquidity issues are also adversely impacting our ability to ship product in a timely fashion.


During the nine months ended September 30, 2017Total other expense, net


Total other expense, net represents interest we borrowed an additional $575,000 from him, which included $135,000during the third quarter of 2017, and at September 30, 2017 we owed him $7,688,349, which represented approximately 78% of our total liabilities. Subsequentpay to September 30, 2017, he hasrelated parties on amounts advanced us an additional $80,000 in working capital funding. Despite his significant commitment to us over the years, our Chief Executive Officer has advised us he is no longer able to advance funds to us for working capital.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES  


We had cash on hand of $175,303 and a working capital deficit of $1,648,300 at March 31, 2019 as compared to cash on hand of $112,769 and a working capital deficit $1,603,639 at December 31, 2018. Our current ratio (current assets to current liabilities) was .46 to 1 at March 31, 2019 as compared to .45 to 1 at December 31, 2018. The increase in negative working capital is primarily attributable to a decrease in accounts receivable and an increases in accounts payable and operating lease liabilities which were offset by decreases in accrued liabilities and deferred compensation and increase in inventory. We do not currently have any commitments for capital expenditures.


Historically, we have been materially reliant on working capital advances from our Executive Chairman to address our liquidity and working capital issues through the utilization of the borrowing agreement with him. On March 25, 2019 we entered into a note exchange agreement with our Executive Chairman pursuant to which he exchanged $7,989,622 of principal and $395,510 of accrued interest which was due on December 31, 2019 under an unsecured loan for a secured promissory note in the principal amount of $8,385,132. The note, which matures on December 31, 2021, bears interest at 4% per annum, payable monthly, and is secured by a first position security interest in our assets. In addition, the amounts we owe him $600,000 for other working capital advances which are due at December 31, 2018 and we do not have sufficient funds to repay these unsecured obligations.


on demand.





We also owe certain of our employees $1,594,283$1,502,823 and $1,564,253, respectively, in deferred cash compensation at September 30, 2017,March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, which represents 15%49% and 54%, respectively, of our current liabilities on that date. Since 2005, Messrs. SandlerThese current and Kroger, two of our executive officers, and two otherformer employees electedagreed to defer a portion of thetheir compensation due them to assist us in managing our cash flow and working capital needs. As there is no written agreement with these current and former employees which memorializes the terms of salary deferral, only a voluntaryan election to do so, it is possible that the employeesthese individuals could demand payment in full at any time.time or elect to no longer defer their salaries, or reduce the amount they currently defer. We do not have thesufficient funds to paysatisfy these amounts. As of September 30, 2017, one employee has withdrawn the full amount of deferred pay, and one other employee is currently drawing down a specified amount to offset the total deferred amount. Neither of these employees are executive officers.obligations.


Our net sales are not sufficient to pay our operating expenses. Our capital requirements depend on a number of factors, including our ability to internally grow our revenues, manage our business and control our expenses. We do not have any external sources of liquidity at this time, and without outside financing, our working capitaldiscussions over the past few years with third parties for potential investments have not been successful. We historically have encountered resistance from potential investors on a variety of fronts, including our operating losses, and the amount of debt due to our Executive Chairman. He is not sufficientobligated to fundlend us any additional funds and the amounts we owe him, which are secured by our business.  The inability of our Chief Executive Officerassets, mature in December 2021. He has advised us that he does not expect to continue to advance fundsprovide working capital advances to usthe Company at historic levels. Given our history of losses and debt levels, is beginning to havewe face a material impact onnumber of challenges in our ability to raise capital. If we do not significantly increase our net sales or raise funds as needed, our ability to provide for current working capital needs, pay our obligations as they become due, grow our company, and continue our business and operations.  Our historic efforts during the past several years at raising third party capital have been unsuccessful, and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising third party capital in sufficient time to enable us to continue ourexisting business and operations is in jeopardy. In this event, we would no longer be able to continue as a going concern and we may be forced to cease operations. In that event our stockholders would likelyyou could lose their entireall of your investment in our company.

During the first three months of 2019 net cash used by our operating activities was principally related to increases in inventory, which were offset by reduced accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and an increase in accounts payable. The increases in inventory and accounts payable were a result of the Company’s expected increase in sales and timing of receiving raw materials. During the first three months of 2018, cash used by operating activities was primarily used to fund our net loss together with increases in accounts receivable and inventories and decreases in sales incentives and deferred compensation were partially offset by an increase in accounts payable.


During the first three months of 2019 and 2018, net cash used by investing activities represented capitalized patent costs and purchases of equipment.


During the first three months of 2019 and 2018, net cash provided by financing activities represented loans from related parties, net of capital lease payments.


Going Concernconcern


Our unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on the basis that we will operate as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred net losses each year since inception and have relied on loans from related parties to fund our operations. The Company does not have sufficient revenues and income to fund the operations. These recurring operating losses, liabilities exceeding assets and the reliance on cash inflows from our principal stockholder, as set forth above, have led our independent registered public accounting firm Liggett & Webb, P.A. to include a statement in its audit report relating to our audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 20162018 and 20152017 expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities when they become due and to continue to generate profitable operations in the future. There are no assurances that we will have sufficient funds to execute our business plan, pay our obligations as they become due or generate positive operating results.






Critical Accounting Policiesaccounting policies and Estimatesestimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. The more critical accounting estimates include estimates related to revenue recognition and accounts receivable allowances. We also have other key accounting policies, which involve the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that are significant to understanding our results, which are described in Note 1 to our auditedunaudited condensed financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report.

Results of Operations for the Three-months and Nine-months Ended September 30, 2017 Compared to the Three-months and Nine-months Ended September 30, 2016


Net Sales


Net sales increased by 17% in the third quarter of 2017 as compared to the third quarter of 2016 and by 22% in the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016.  We attribute the results in the 2017 periods to a number of customers in targeted markets experiencing revived business outlook with apparent stability in the economy and oil pricing.   However, as world events which are beyond our control may adversely impact the economy and /or oil pricing during theOff balance of 2017, we are unable at this time to predict if the stabilization trend will continue during the balance of the year.


Cost of Products Sold


Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, increased by 3%; from 22% in the third quarter of 2016 to 25% in the third quarter of 2017.  Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, decreased by 3%, from 26% in the nine months ended September 30, of 2016 to 23% in the nine months ended September 30, 2017.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 the Company recorded an additional provision for slow moving inventory of $121,998 which adversely impacted margins in that period. We continue to review cost of materials increases, some of which were passed through to our customers as product price increases in the past few years.


Selling and Administrative Expenses


Selling and administrative expenses decreased 18% for the third quarter of 2017 from the comparable period in 2016, and 20% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 from the comparable period in 2016, both which are attributable to reduction in expenses associated with stock compensation to employees, reduced professional fees, and reduced travel.  We anticipate that our selling and administration expenses will remain at the same level throughout 2017, inclusive of communication costs, office supplies, and other components of administrative expenses.


Salaries and Wages


Salaries and wages increased 2% in the third quarter of 2017 as compared to the third quarter of 2016, and decreased 5% for the nine months of 2017 from the comparable period in 2016, due to reduced staffing.  We anticipate that our salaries and wages will remain at the same level throughout 2017.


Interest Expense


Interest expense decreased 25% for the each of the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017 from the comparable periods in 2016.  These decreases are the result of the conversion of a portion of the debt to equity by Mr. Vittoria in November 2016. The Company pays interest monthly on the notes payable to our principal stockholder at prime rate less 0.5%, with rates reset as often as the Federal Reserve changes interest rates, which was a weighted average of 3.61% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to an average of 2.86% for the three months ended September 30, 2016.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


As of September 30, 2017, the Company had cash of $22,652 as compared to $12,806 at December 31, 2016. At September 30, 2017, we had negative working capital of $1,432,793 and our current ratio (current assets to current liabilities) was .34 to 1. At December 31 2016, we had negative working capital of $8,266,892 and our current ratio (current assets to current liabilities) was .11 to 1. The decrease in working capital deficit and decrease in current ratio is primarily attributable to the decreased accounts receivable, inventory, which were partially offset by increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses. As described earlier in this report, we do not have sufficient funds to pay our operating expenses or satisfy our obligations as they become due. Accordingly, there are no assurances we will continue as a going concern.







Cash Flows  


Operating activities


For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017 net cash used in operating activities was $431,108, which primarily resulted from the net loss of $852,908.  In addition to the cash used in funding the operating loss, the utilization of cash in operations is also attributable to a provision for slow moving inventory of $121,998, the decrease in accounts receivable of $48,851 and inventory of $139,457, an increase in prepaid expenses of $25,297, decreased deferred compensation of $8,543, increased accrued liabilities of $27,408 and accounts payable of $31,247. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016 net cash used in operating activities was $1,045,567, which primarily resulted from the net loss, after taxes, of $1,098,403.  In addition to the cash used in funding the operating loss, the utilization of cash in operations is also attributable to the increase in accounts receivable of $139,212, an increase in prepaid expenses of $19,011, decreased deferred compensation of $33,043, which were partially offset by increased accrued liabilities of $22,342, and increased accounts payable of $38,092. Further, we reduced inventory by $71,844 as a result of slower than expected sales for the nine month period ended September 30, 2016.


Investing activities


For the nine months ending September 30, 2017, $81,230 was used in investing activities for the purchase of equipment and capitalized patent costs.For the nine months ending September 30, 2016, $106,262 was used in investing activities for the purchase of software and capitalized patent costs.


Financing activities


Net cash provided by financing activities was $522,184 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, which was composed of $575,000 in loans from our stockholders as described above, repayment of loan from a former member of the Board of Directors, totaling $50,000, and $2,816 in payments of capital lease obligations. Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,136,096 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, which was composed of $1,113,912 in loans from our stockholders and an unsecured loan from a former member of the Board of Directors, totaling $25,000 which was partially offset by $2,816 in payments of capital lease obligations.


Backlog


On November 17, the Company received two purchase orders from a major oil and gas customer for delivery of Puradyn product in shipments ranging from December 2017 to September 2018. The revenue generated from this sale will be approximately $990,000. Although there is a commitment by all parties to fulfill the orders, the purchase orders can be cancelled at any time by the customer prior to shipment and, accordingly, there are no assurances these sales will be made.


Off Balance Sheet Arrangementssheet arrangements


As of the date of this report, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. The term "off-balance sheet arrangement" generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with us is a party, under which we have any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest or a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.


Not applicable for a smaller reporting company.






ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


Our management, which includes our CEO and our Vice President, who serves as our principal financial and accounting officer, have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-14(c) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of September 30, 2017March 31, 2019 (the "Evaluation Date"). Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.


Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, our CEO and our Vice President who also serves as our principal financial and accounting officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective such that the information relating to our company, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Vice President who serves as our principal financial and accounting officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure as a result of our failure to file a material contract with the Securities and Exchange Commission which is described in Part II, Item 5 of this report.  As a result of this failure to file a material agreement, we are not considered current in our filings with the SEC.  disclosure.


Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.






PART II.   OTHER INFORMATION

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.


None.


ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS.


In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form2018 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 and our subsequent filings with the SEC, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results, subject to the new or modified risk factors appearing below that should be read in conjunction with the risk factors disclosed in such Form 10-K. These cautionary statements are to be used as a reference in connection with any forward-looking statements. The factors, risks and uncertainties identified in these cautionary statements are in addition to those contained in any other cautionary statements, written or oral, which may be made or otherwise addressed in connection with a forward-looking statement or contained in any of our subsequent filings with the SEC.results.


OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN IS IN JEOPARDY.


As described elsewhere herein, our net sales are not sufficient to pay our operating expenses or satisfy our obligations as they become due. Historically, our operations have been financed primarily through loans from our Chief Executive Officer, as well as other affiliates. Our Chief Executive Officer recently advised us that he does not expect to continue to provide working capital advances to the Company and we do not have any another sources of capital. Based upon our current cash level and expected cash flows, we do not have sufficient capital to fund our business through December 31, 2017.  If we are unable to raise capital from third party sources, we will no longer be able to continue as a going concern and it is likely you will lose all of your investment in our company.


On November 17, the Company received two purchase orders from a major oil and gas customer for delivery of Puradyn product in shipments ranging from December 2017 to September 2018. The revenue generated from this sale will be approximately $990,000. Although there is a commitment by all parties to fulfill the orders, the purchase orders can be cancelled at any time by the customer prior to shipment and, accordingly, there are no assurances these sales will be made.


WE OWE APPROXIMATELY $7.6 MILLION WHICH IS DUE BY DECEMBER 31, 2018.


At September 30, 2017, we owe our Chief Executive Officer approximately $7.6 million, and he has advanced us an additional $80,000 in the fourth quarter of 2017. This loan, which is unsecured, is due on December 31, 2018 and we do not have sufficient funds to pay this loan when it becomes due. If we are unable to meet our obligation to our Chief Executive Officer prior to maturity, he has advised us that he may forgive substantially all, or a portion, of this obligation.  However, he is under no obligation to do so.


WE ARE DEPENDENT UPON SALES TO ONE CUSTOMER IN THE OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY.  THERE ARE NO ASSURANCES THIS CUSTOMER WILL MEET THE TARGETED SALES GOALS.


In September 2017 we entered into an exclusive distribution agreement with DNOW for the worldwide rights to sell our product in the oil and gas industry effective August 1, 2017.  Targeted quarterly goals, if achieved, represent an aggregate of approximately $4 million in sales revenue between August 1, 2017 and June 30, 2018; sales under the agreement amount to $154,470 for the period from August 1, 2017 to September 30, 2017.  There are no assurances that any of these targeted goals will be met and we have no right to cancel the agreement for the failure to meet the goals.  


ITEM 2.

UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.


None, except as previously reported.






ITEM 3.

DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES.


None.
