CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION


Certain statements in this report contain or may contain forward-looking statements that are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements were based on various factors and were derived utilizing numerous assumptions and other factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to:


·

our history of losses and uncertainty that we will be able to continue as a going concern,

·

the significant decline in our net sales during 2019 and our ability to generate net sales in future periods in an amount sufficient to pay our operating expenses and satisfy our obligations as they become due;

·

our dependence on sales to a limited number of customers;

·

our need for additional financing and uncertainties related to our ability to obtain these funds,

·

our ability to repay the outstanding secured debt of approximately $8.3 million at November 8, 2018September 30, 2019 due our Executive Chairman the majority of which matures on December 31, 2019;2021, together with an additional $983,000 of unsecured advances which are payable upon demand;

·

the significant amount of deferred compensation owed to onetwo of our executive officers and two otherformer employees and our ability to pay these amounts,

·

our ability to protect our intellectual property, and the potential impact of expiring patents on our business in future periods,

·

anti-takeover provisions of Delaware law and our Board's ability to issue preferred stock without stockholder consent,

·

potential dilution to our stockholders from the exercise of outstanding options and warrants, and

·

the lack of sufficient liquidity in the market for our common stock, andstock.

·

the application of penny stock rules to the trading in our common stock.


Most of these factors are difficult to predict accurately and are generally beyond our control. You should consider the areas of risk described in connection with any forward-looking statements that may be made herein. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements and readers should carefully review our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017,2018, including the risks described inPart I. Item 1A. Risk Factors and this report together with our subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission in their entirety.

PURADYN FILTER TECHNOLOGIES INCORPORATED

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)


1.

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 periods ended September 30, 20182019 may not necessarily be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018.2019.


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, 2017.2018.


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. 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 nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 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, 20182019 and December 31, 2017,2018, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.

PURADYN FILTER TECHNOLOGIES INCORPORATED

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, 20182019 and December 31, 2017,2018, respectively, because of their short-term natures.


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.

Sales Incentives and Consideration Paid to Customers


The Company accounts for certain promotional costs such as sales incentives and cooperative advertising as a reduction of sales.


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 nine months ended September 30, 2018,2019, 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 months ended September 30, 2018:2019:

Advertising Costs


Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 20182019 and 2017,2018, advertising costs incurred by the Company totaled approximately $3,742 and $15,659 and $4,117 $7,450, $430, and $731,$7,450, respectively, and are included in selling and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.


Engineering and Development


ResearchEngineering and development costs are expensed as incurred. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, and 2017, researchengineering and development costs incurred by the Company totaled $1,986 and  $4,664 and , $1,582, $4,395, $1,677 and $4,970,$4,395, respectively, and are included in selling and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.


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, 2017 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, 2018.2019.

PURADYN FILTER TECHNOLOGIES INCORPORATED

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, 20182019 and December 31, 2017,2018, 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 1514 for further details.


Basic and Diluted LossIncome / (Loss) Per Share


The Company uses ASC 260-10,Earnings Per Share for calculating the basic and diluted income (loss) per share. The 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 September 30, 20182019 and 2017,2018, there were 11,925,836 and 13,113,336 and 4,175,162 shares, respectively, issuable upon the exercise of options and warrants, respectively.


Common stock equivalent shares are excluded from the computation of net loss per share if their effect is anti-dilutive. The Company had net income for the three month and nine monthnine-month period ended September 30, 2018. A separate computation of diluted earnings per share is presented using the treasury stock method and 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 September 30, 2019.


Reclassifications


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


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification 605,Revenue Recognition. This ASU is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, which deferred the effective date of the new revenue standard by one year and allowed entities the option to early adopt the new revenue standard as of the original effective date. There have been multiple standards updates amending this guidance or providing corrections or improvements on issues in the guidance. The requirements for these standards relating to Topic 606 are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. This standard permitted adoption using one of two transition methods, either the retrospective or modified retrospective transition method.

PURADYN FILTER TECHNOLOGIES INCORPORATED

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)


The Company adopted these standards 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 adoption of these standards did not have a material impact on the Company's Condensed Statements of Operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.


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. After reviewing of this ASU we have determined it will have no 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.


2.

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 through the December 31, 2017. During the nine-months ended September 30, 2018 the Company has begun to generate net income. However, the Companyand does not have sufficient revenues and income to fully fund the operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 20182019 and 20172018 the Company used net cash in operations of $230,682$713,140 and $431,108,$230,682, respectively. As a result, the Company has had to rely on stockholder loans and related parties to fund its activities to date.

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, 2018,2019, 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 $180,826.$853,116.


On 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 September 30,December 31, 2018 the Company had received all of the reimbursement.


In January 2015 the Company entered into a capital lease for office equipment in the amount of $15,020, which expires in December 2018. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 the balance under capital lease obligations was $629 and $3,443, respectively.

The 2018 Plan provides for the granting of both incentive and non-qualified stock options to key personnel, including officers, directors, consultants and advisors to the Company, at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Each plan limits the exercise price of the options at no less than the quoted market price of the common stock on the date of grant.

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 global distribution network that will not only sell, but also install and support our product. DistributionNow (DNOW) joined the Puradyn distributor network in 2016 and became exclusive distributor for the oil and gas industry 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 network and MNI, we currently have approximately 45 distributors and dealers and manufacturer representatives that sell and/or service thePuradynsystem in the U.S. and internationally. Today our products are found around the world in a number of industries, including oil and gas, power generation, construction and forestry, commercial marine, mining, and transportation.






Third quarter of 20182019 business highlights


 

·

LaunchedRevenues in the quarter were negatively impacted by the continued delays in expected orders, especially from new customers in the Oil & Gas category. Our sales in Oil & Gas were down 93% in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the third quarter of 2018 and are down 78% through the first nine months of 2019 vs the same period in 2018. Customers within the drilling and pressure pumping segments are reducing active equipment, which has a newcombined effect of reduced demand of replacement filters among existing customers and expanded relationship with MNI Diesel, LLC in August 2018 that made MNI the pausing or extension of evaluation periods by prospective customers. While we believe these orders may eventually be received, it has become difficult to predict the timing.


Our exclusive distributor for the Oil & Gas segment, DNOW, has expanded the number of active salespeople supporting the promotion and sale of our product line by over 300%, and they share our belief that many customers will find even greater value in Puradyn products given their need to the commercial marine industry for the Ohio and Mississippi River Valleys and the U.S. Gulf Coast of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama.  MNI has significant experience with selling, installing and monitoring the success of Puradyn systems on their clients’ vessels, making them a powerful advocate for our product line.implement new cost savings measures.

Outlook


We attribute the increasedecrease in sales in the third quarter of 2018 and2019 compared to the nine months then ended over the comparable periods in 2017third quarter of 2018 to a numbervirtual halt of new system orders from customers in targeted markets experiencing improved business conditions and greater receptivity to Puradyn’s messagewithin the Oil & Gas industry.

Gross profit


Our gross profit margins for the third quarter of 2018 increased from 25% in the third quarter of 2017 to 46% in the third quarter of 2018,three and from 23% for the first nine months of 2017ended September 30, 2019 decreased by 92% and 79% as compared to 43% for the firstthree and nine months ofended September 30, 2018. The increasedecrease in our gross profit margins infor the 2018 periodsthree and nine months ended September 30, 2019 is attributable to increasedreduced facility utilization and operating efficiencies due to increaseddecreased sales andwhich was partial offset by a significant decrease in the expensereserve for slow moving inventory from amounts recorded in 2017.of $(44,053) during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to $13,611 for the nine months ended September 30, 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 current administration. However, we are exploring 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 includesinclude salaries and wages and selling and administrative expenses, increased slightly during the threenine months ended September 30, 2018 and2019 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2018 due to primarily to the hiringincreases in early 2019 of our new CEO in May 2018. The additional expense wassalary and advertising expenses which were then offset by cost-cutting measures, including staff reductions and an approximately 20% reduction in factory hours and office salaries that began late in the decision not fill a position vacated voluntarily and the impactsecond quarter of one employee who is now being paid only from deferred compensation.2019. The increasesdecrease in selling and administrative expenses during the third quarter of 2018 and the nine months then ended2019 from the comparable periodsperiod in 20172018 is attributable to increasescost-cutting measures, including staff reductions and an approximately 20% reduction in non-cash expenses associated with stock compensation to employeesfactory hours and our decision to restart targeted advertising. We anticipate that our selling and administration expenses will increase slightly throughout 2018, inclusive of communication costs, office supplies, and other components of administrative expenses.salaries.


Total other expense, net


Total other expense, net represents interest we pay to related parties on amounts advanced to us for working capital. The increase in the 2019 periods from the comparable periods in 2018 reflects our increased borrowings.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES  


We had cash on hand of $98,910$72,549 and a working capital deficit of $1,457,339$2,334,951 at September 30, 20182019 as compared to cash on hand of $54,438$112,769 and a working capital deficit of $9,470,970$1,603,639 at December 31, 2017.2018. Our current ratio (current assets to current liabilities) was .50.34 to 1 at September 30, 20182019 as compared to .08.45 to 1 at December 31, 2017.2018. The decreaseincrease in negative working capital is primarily attributable to our Executive Chairman extending the maturity date of his working capital loans to December 31, 2019, thereby reclassifying these amounts from current liabilities to long-term liabilities, together with increasesa decrease in inventory and accounts receivable and an increase in accounts payable and operating lease liabilities which were offset by decreases in accrued liabilities and deferred compensation sales incentives cash and increase in accounts payable.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 2018addition, we have borrowed an additional $325,000 fromowe him under short term demand notes and $26,273 under a previous line, and at September 30, 2018 we owed him an aggregate of $8,314,622. We do not have the funds necessary to satisfy these obligations. While he has continued to fund our working capital needs and extend the due date of the obligation, he is under no contractual obligation to do so. During 2017 he advised us he does not expect to continue to provide$983,000 for other working capital advances to us at historic amounts. Ifwhich are due on demand.


In October 2019 we are unable to meet our obligation to Mr. Vittoria prior to maturity, he has advised us that he may forgive all, or substantially all,borrowed $43,100 from a third party commercial lender under the terms of a 12 month secured loan agreement which is described later in this obligation. However, he isreport under no obligation to do so.Part II, Item 5. We utilized these funds for working capital.


We also owe certain of our employees $1,593,724$1,492,370 and $1,626,003,$1,564,253, respectively, in deferred cash compensation at September 30, 20182019 and December 31, 2017,2018, which represents 55%42% and 16%54%, respectively, of our current liabilities on that date. Since 2005, Mr. Kroger, our PresidentThese current and COO, has deferredformer employees agreed to defer a portion of histheir compensation to assist us in managing our cash flow and working capital needs. Two other employees, who no longer receive a salary, are receiving regular payments from their deferred compensation. As there is no written agreement with these current and former employees which memorializes the terms of salary deferral, only an election to do so, it is possible 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 sufficient funds to satisfy these obligations.


We do



Our net sales are not sufficient to pay our operating expenses. Our capital requirements depend on a number of factors, including our ability to increase revenues, increase gross profit margins and control our expenses. Over the past few years we have not had any external sources of liquidity, at this time, and our discussions 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 revenue levels, operating losses, and the amount of debt due Mr. Vittoria. In an effort to improveour Executive Chairman. At September 30, 2019 we owe him in excess of $9 million. He is not obligated to lend us any additional funds and a substantial amount of what we owe him is secured by our assets under the terms of a secured note which matures in December 2021. He has advised us that he does not expect to continue to provide working capital advances to the Company at historic levels, if at all Accordingly, during October 2019 we obtained a one year $43,100 principal amount high interest secured loan from a third party commercial lender to provide operating capital. While our Executive Chairman subordinated his first position security interest in our assets to accommodate our need to take out this loan, there are no assurances we will do so in the future should we be forced to seek additional third party loans. Given our declining revenues, history of losses and debt levels, we face a number of challenges in our ability to raise capital on November 11, 2016 he converted $6,100,000 of principal and interestfrom third parties. Our ability to provide for our current working capital needs, pay our obligations as they become due, him into shares of our common stock at a conversion price which was a premium to the market value of our common stock. However, following such conversion, the hoped-for change in our potential financing sources looked atgrow our company, and risks associated with it have not changed. There can becontinue our existing business and operations is in jeopardy. If we are unsuccessful in our efforts to significantly increase our net sales over sustained quarters and/or raise significant outside capital, we will no assurance we willlonger be able to raise additional capital or generate enough to repay our debt holders, and it is possiblecontinue as a going concern. In that stockholders couldevent, you would lose their entireall of your investment in our company.

During the first nine months of 2019 net cash used by our operating activities was principally related to increases in inventory, which were offset by reduced accounts receivable, 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 nine months of 2018 net cash used by our operating activities was principally related to increases in inventory, accounts receivable and prepaid expenses offset by increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The increases in accounts receivable as well as the corresponding 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 nine months of 2017, cash used by operating activities was primarily used to fund our net loss together with increase in prepaid expenses were partially offset by decrease in accounts receivable and inventory as well a provision for slow moving inventory and increase in accrued liabilities.


During the first nine months of 20182019 and 2017,2018, net cash used by investing activities represented capitalized patent costs and purchases of  equipment.costs.


During the first nine months of 2019, net cash provided by financing activities represented loans from related parties. During the first nine months of 2018, and 2017, net cash provided by financing activities represented loans from related parties, net of capital lease payments.


Going concern


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 through December 31, 2017since inception and have relied on loans from related parties to fund our operations. During the nine-months ended September 30, 2018 the Company has begun to generate net income. However, theThe 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, 20172018 and 20162017 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 policies and estimates


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 unaudited condensed financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report.


Recent accounting pronouncements


Information concerning recently issued accounting pronouncements is set forth in Note 1 of our notes to our unaudited condensed financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report.






Off balance sheet 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 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, 2018the end of the period covered by this report (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 principal financial and accounting officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were 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 principal financial and accounting officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required 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.

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, 2017 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.


WE NEED ADDITIONAL FINANCING WHICH WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO OBTAIN ON ACCEPTABLE TERMS. IF WE CANNOT RAISE ADDITIONAL CAPITAL AS NEEDED, OUR ABILITY TO FUND OUR ONGOING OPERATIONS WILL BE IN JEOPARDY AND WE WILL BE UNABLE TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN.


As described elsewhere herein, 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. Historically, our operations have been financed primarily through loans from our Chairman of the Board, as well as other affiliates. Our Chairman of the Board recently advised us that he does not expect to continue to provide working capital advances to the Company at historic levels. Given our history of losses and debt levels, we face a number 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 existing business and operations is in jeopardy. In this event, we would no longer be able to continue as a going concern and you could lose all of your investment in our company.


WE OWE APPROXIMATELY $8.3 MILLION, THE MAJORITY OF WHICH IS DUE BY DECEMBER 31, 2019.


At September 30, 2018, we owed our Executive Chairman approximately $8.3 million. This obligation is unsecured. Substantially all of this amount is due on December 31, 2019, however, $325,000 of which is due on demand. We do not have sufficient funds to repay these obligations. If our Executive Chairman does not consent to further extensions of the due date of these amounts, we will be unable to repay these obligations when due.
