SMARTMETRIC INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 (UNAUDITED)
 
 
NOTE 1 -       ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

SmartMetric, Inc. (the “Company” or “SmartMetric”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 18, 2002. SmartMetric’s main product is a fingerprint sensor activated card with a finger sensor onboard the card and a built-in rechargeable battery for portable biometric identification. This card may be referred to as a biometric card or the SmartMetric Biometric Datacard.   SmartMetric has completed development of its card along with pre mass manufacturing cards but has not yet begun to mass manufacture the biometric fingerprint activated cards.  

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulations S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of the management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all the adjustments (which are of a normal recurring nature) necessary for a fair presentation.  Operating results for the nine months and three months ended March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2012.  For further information, refer to the financial statements and the footnotes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2011, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
Going Concern

As shown in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements the Company has incurred recurring losses of $2,013,423 and $1,263,552 for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 respectively, and has incurred a cumulative loss of $10,579,887 since inception (December 18, 2002).   The Company is currently in the development stage and has spent a substantial portion of its time in the development of its technology.

There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise enough capital or generate revenues to sustain its operations.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management believes that the Company’s capital requirements will depend on many factors.  These factors include the final phase of development and mass production being successful as well as product implementation and distribution.

The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the carrying amounts of recorded assets or the carrying amounts and classification of recorded liabilities that may be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2 -       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Development Stage Company

The Company is considered to be in the development stage as defined in ASC 915-10, "Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises". The Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to the development of its technology.  Additionally, the Company has allocated a substantial portion of its time and investment in bringing its services to the market, and the raising of capital.
 
Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, SmartMetric Australia Pty. Ltd.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to income taxes and contingencies.  The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and other short-term investments with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  Any amounts of cash in financial institutions over FDIC insured limits exposes the Company to cash concentration risk. The Company has no cash equivalents.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheet for cash, accounts payable, and accrued expenses including payroll withholdings, interest and penalties approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

ASC 820 defines fair value, provides a consistent framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and expands fair value financial statement disclosure requirements. ASC 820’s valuation techniques are based on observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect readily obtainable data from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. ASC 820 classifies these inputs into the following hierarchy:

NOTE 2 -       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Level 1 inputs: Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2 inputs: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3 inputs: Instruments with primarily unobservable value drivers.

Research and Development

The Company annually incurs costs on activities that relate to research and development of new technology and products.  Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Revenue Recognition

The Company has not recognized revenues to date.  The Company anticipates recognizing revenue in accordance with the contracts it enters into for the sale and distribution of its products.

Accounts Receivable

The Company will extend credit based on its evaluation of the customers’ financial condition, generally without requiring collateral.  Exposure to losses on receivables is expected to vary by customer due to the financial condition of each customer.  The Company will monitor exposure to credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses considered necessary under the circumstances.  The Company has not recorded any receivables, and therefore no allowance for doubtful accounts.  
 
Uncertainty in Income Taxes

ASC 740-10 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“ASC 740-10”) requires recognition and measurement of uncertain income tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not” approach.   Management evaluates Company tax positions on an annual basis and has determined that as of March 31, 2012 no accrual for income taxes is necessary.

Advertising Costs

The Company will expense the cost associated with advertising as incurred.  

Equipment

Equipment is stated at cost.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets 3 - 5 years.

NOTE 2 -       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recoverable.  The Company does not perform a periodic assessment of assets for impairment in the absence of such information or indicators.  Conditions that would necessitate an impairment assessment include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or a significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets is not recoverable.  For long-lived assets to be held and used, the Company recognizes an impairment loss only if its carrying amount is not recoverable through its undiscounted cash flows and measures the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and estimated fair value.

Loss Per Share of Common Stock

Basic net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  The calculation of diluted earnings per share ("EPS") includes consideration of dilution arising from common stock equivalents, such as stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and warrants.  Common stock equivalents were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share on the condensed consolidated statement of operations due to the fact that the Company reported a net loss and to do so would be anti-dilutive for the periods presented.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures compensation expense for its employee stock based compensation under ASC 718-10 “Share-Based Payments” (“ASC 718-10”) and for its nonemployee stock based compensation under ASC 505-50 “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with  Selling, Goods or Services” (“ASC 505-50”).  The fair value of the option issued is used to measure the transaction, as this is more reliable than the fair value of the services received.  The fair value is measured at the value of the Company’s common stock on the date that the commitment for performance by the counterparty has been reached or the counterparty’s performance is complete.  The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to compensation expense and additional paid-in capital.  
  
 NOTE 3 -      PREPAID EXPENSES

Prepaid expenses represent the unexpired terms of various consulting agreements and expire through June 2012 and advance rental payments.  These consulting agreements were entered into for the issuance of common stock and warrants and were valued based on the stock price or computed warrant value at the time of the respective agreement.

NOTE 7 -         INCOME TAXES

The Company provides for income taxes at the end of each interim period based on the estimated effective tax rate for the full fiscal year.  Cumulative adjustments to the Company’s estimate are recorded in the interim period in which a change in the estimated annual effective rate is determined.

The Company has estimated its effective tax rate to be 0%, based primarily on losses incurred and the uncertainty of realization of the tax benefit of such losses. 

NOTE 8 -        LITIGATION

On July 27, 2010, the Company filed a second amended complaint (the “Visa and Mastercard Complaint”) in the United States District Court, Central District of California (the “Court”), Case No. 2:10-cv-01864, against MasterCard, Inc. and Visa, Inc. alleging patent infringement on the Company’s patent, U.S. Patent 6,792,464 (the “’464 Patent”) (the “Visa and Mastercard Case”).

On December 7, 2010, the Company filed a complaint (the “AMEX Complaint”) in the Court, Case No. CV10-9371 JHN (MANx), against American Express Company (“AMEX”) alleging patent infringement on the 464 Patent (the “AMEX Case”).

On June 20, 2011, the Court entered a judgment of non-infringement in both the Visa and Mastercard Case and the AMEX Case based on the Court’s construction of certain of the disputed phrases of the asserted claims of the 464 Patent (the “Judgment”).

On June 30, 2011, the Company filed a Notice of Appeal to the Judgment in the AMEX Case against what the Company believes to be erroneous definition and limitations placed on the 464 patent as a result of wrongful interpretation. On July 1, 2011, the Company filed a Notice of Appeal to the Judgment in the Visa and Mastercard Case against what the Company believes to be erroneous interpretation of definitions and limitations placed on the 464 patent by the Court.

On August 29, 2011, the Company filed a complaint in the United States District Court, Central District of California, against Master Card, Inc. (“MasterCard”) and Visa, Inc. (“Visa”) alleging patent infringement on the 464 patent.  The Company is seeking the following relief from MasterCard and Visa:
 
1.  
For an order pursuant to 35 U.S.C. section 271 declaring that both MasterCard and Visa have infringed one or more claims of the ‘464 Patent;
2.  
A preliminary and permanent injunction against both MasterCard and Visa prohibiting each of them from further infringement of the ‘464 Patent;
3.  
An award of actual damages the Company has suffered by reason of the infringement charged in the complaint in an amount not less than a reasonable royalty on both MasterCard’s and Visa’s infringement of the ‘464 Patent:
4.  
An award to the Company of its costs; and
5.  
Such other relief as the Court may deem just and proper.

NOTE 8 -        LITIGATION (CONTINUED)

In the earlier actions against VISA, MasterCard, and American Express, the United States District Court mandated the  Company to narrow its complaint exclusively  to patent infringement from Defendants’ revenues from “contactless” credit card/pay systems.  In its Company’s Second Amended Complaint , the Court stated:

MasterCard and Visa are infringing … the ‘464 patent in this judicial district by selling, offering to sell and using contactless card systems, namely, VI’s Paywave and MC’s PayPass, that use data cards that, when passed near to a reader, establish connection to a network (the “Systems”), that infringe at least claims 1 and 14 of the ‘464 patent.

That action excluded physical insertion of a credit card into a recess of a data card reader.  In the recent action, the Company charged that  Defendants’ “contact” and “contact/contactless” credit card systems infringe the ‘464 patent.  These systems do allow for physical insertion of an EMV/credit card into a recess of a data card reader, therefore presenting  a distinguishing  infringement issue.  That legal outcome avails the Company the opportunity to pursue its infringement claims against all systems that require or permit the physical insertion of a chip-bearing card into a recess of a data card reader.

The Company intends to continue to vigorously pursue its infringement claim in the Visa and Mastercard Case.

Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
  
In this quarterly report on Form 10-Q (“Report”), references to “SmartMetric,” “SMME,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Smartmetric, Inc.
 
We make certain forward-looking statements in this report. Statements concerning our future operations, prospects, strategies, financial condition, future economic performance (including growth and earnings), demand for our services, and other statements of our plans, beliefs, or expectations, including the statements contained under the captions “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Business,” as well as captions elsewhere in this document, are forward-looking statements. In some cases these statements are identifiable through the use of words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “target,” “can”, “could,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” and similar expressions. The forward-looking statements we make are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to various assumptions, risks, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by these forward-looking statements. Because such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Indeed, it is likely that some of our assumptions will prove to be incorrect. Our actual results and financial position will vary from those projected or implied in the forward-looking statements and the variances may be material. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties, together with the other risks described from time to time in reports and documents that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements.
 
The nature of our business makes predicting the future trends of our revenue, expenses, and net income difficult. Thus, our ability to predict results or the actual effect of our future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. The risks and uncertainties involved in our business could affect the matters referred to in any forward-looking statements and it is possible that our actual results may differ materially from the anticipated results indicated in these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ from those in the forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the following:
 
· the effect of political, economic, and market conditions and geopolitical events;
 
· legislative and regulatory changes that affect our business;
 
· the availability of funds and working capital and our ability to continue as a going concern;
 
· the actions and initiatives of current and potential competitors;
 
· investor sentiment; and
 
· our reputation.
 
We do not undertake any responsibility to publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to take into account events or circumstances that occur after the date of this Report, except as required by law. Additionally, we do not undertake any responsibility to update you on the occurrence of any unanticipated events which may cause actual results to differ from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements.
 
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto as filed with the SEC and other financial information contained elsewhere in this Report.
 
Overview
 
Incorporated in 2002, SmartMetric and its founder and CEO, C. Hendrick, have been engaged in research and development of a biometric security solution which would authenticate the identity of a person in a self-contained credit card-sized device. SmartMetric’s Biometric Datacard has been designed to use an on-board finger print sensor which is imbedded in the card along with an integrated circuit chip which will provide varying degrees of encrypted memory. SmartMetric has completed development of its card along with pre mass manufacturing cards but has not yet begun to mass manufacture the biometric fingerprint activated cards.  To date, SmartMetric has had no revenues.

The manufacturing of the cards requires that the Company build not only a special factory that meets security conditions but also that the Company manufacture specialized mass production machines that will allow for the specialized manufacturing process required to mount sub micro thin silicon components; along with a credit card plastic manufacturing procedure that operates using low pressure and low heat so as not to harm the internal electronic components.

The Company is currently concentrating on building out its manufacturing facility that will be incorporating SmartMetric’s advanced manufacturing processes. The Company believes that it has now raised sufficient capital to purchase the specialized machinery needed in its factory facility in Buenos Aires.

Our ability to continue as a going concern prior to the generation of sales is almost exclusively dependent upon our ability to raise capital, specifically through sales of unregistered securities. The ability to raise capital through private placement sales is very unpredictable, thus greatly influencing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

We currently have one full time employee, C. Hendrick, our President and Chief Executive Officer. Once we have begun to generate sales, we intend to hire additional employees.  While the Company has a small full-time workforce it employs a team of engineers in various locations as contract engineers.  Our chief engineering is centered in both Israel and Silicon Valley, California. Our team of contract engineers has been working on our advanced electronics along with our machinery engineering. We have the ability to use more than 20 highly specialized contract engineers when needed, but we are not obligated to utilize more engineering services than we require at any time.  In addition to contract engineers the Company engages contract administrative support workers.
 
SmartMetric does not believe its business is seasonal.
 
Results of Operations
 
Comparison of the Nine Months Ended March 31, 2012 and 2011
 
Revenue and Net Loss
 
For the nine months ended March 31, 2012, there was no revenue and a net loss of $2,013,423.  For the nine months ended March 31, 2011, there was no revenue and a net loss of $1,263,552.  This increased loss of $749,871 or 59.3% resulted primarily from higher general and administrative expenses, partially offset by lower research and development expenses.
 
General and Administrative Expenses
 
General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 were $1,653,859, an increase of $791,285 or 91.7% compared to $862,574 for the comparable period in 2011. The increase was primarily attributable to higher professional fees, largely funded through the issuance of common stock and higher promotional, contract labor and rent costs.  Because the SmartMetric Biometric Datacard is nearing production, the Company has expended additional resources in promotion and market awareness of the Company and its Biometric Datacard.
 
Research and Development Expenses
 
Research and development expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 were $232,064, a decrease of $31,003 or 11.8% compared to $263,067 for the comparable period in 2011. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower engineering costs in the development of the production process. As mentioned above, the Company has made increasing use of specialized contract engineers on an as needed basis.  The Company believes this arrangement provides the technological and specialized skills required at lowest cost to the Company.  Research and development expenses will vary by quarter and year to date period based on the Company’s cash position and its success in raising new capital.

Interest Expense
 
Interest expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 was $0 compared to $10,411 for the comparable period in 2011, a decrease of $10,411, or 100.0%. The decrease was primarily attributable to reduced interest on the reduced past due payroll tax liabilities.  Because of the past negotiations in the effort to satisfy the outstanding payroll tax liabilities, the interest and penalties on the past due liability were included in other general and administrative expenses as the amounts were settled together with the interest and penalty element losing their character.  The liability for past-due payroll taxes, interest and penalties was satisfied on March 30, 2012.
 
Income Tax Expense
 
Income tax for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 was $0, unchanged from the comparable period in 2011.  There was no income tax expense in either period due to losses in both periods and the Company being unable to recognize the net benefit of income tax loss carryforwards due to the uncertainty of realization of such benefits.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 and 2011
 
Revenue and Net Loss
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2012, there was no revenue and a net loss of $588,682.  For the three months ended March 31, 2011, there was no revenue and a net loss of $585,484.  This increased loss of $3,198 or 0.5% resulted primarily from increased general and administrative expenses partially offset by lower research and development expenses.
 
General and Administrative Expenses
 
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were $461,971, an increase of $173,666 or 60.2% compared to $288,305 for the comparable period in 2011. The increase was primarily attributable to increased consulting and professional fees largely funded by the issuance of common stock, contract labor and rent, partially offset by reduced travel and penalties on the past due payroll tax liability.   The liability for past-due payroll taxes, interest and penalties was satisfied on March 30, 2012.
 
Research and Development Expense
 
Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were $84,211, a decrease of $167,154 or 66.5% compared to $251,365 for the comparable period in 2011. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower engineering costs that related primarily to in the development of the production process in 2012.  In the comparable period of 2011, the Company received significant proceeds from private placements of its securities and accelerated it research and development costs relative to the development of the SmartMetric Biometric Datacard.   As mentioned above, the Company has made increasing use of specialized contract engineers on an as needed basis.  The Company believes this arrangement provides the technological and specialized skills required at lowest cost to the Company.  Research and development expenses will vary by quarter and year to date period based on the Company’s cash position and its success in raising new capital.

Interest Expense
 
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $0 compared to $3,314 for the comparable period in 2011, a decrease of $3,314 or 100.0%.  The decrease was primarily attributable to reduced interest on the reduced past due payroll tax liabilities.  Because of the past negotiations in the effort to satisfy the outstanding payroll tax liabilities, the interest and penalties on the past due liability were included in other general and administrative expenses as the amounts were settled together with the interest and penalty element losing their character.  The liability for past-due payroll taxes, interest and penalties was satisfied on March 30, 2012.

Income Tax Expense
 
Income tax for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $0, unchanged from the previous period.  There was no income tax expense in either period due to losses in both periods and the Company being unable to recognize the net benefit of income tax loss carryforwards due to the uncertainty of realization of such benefits.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
The Company is a development stage company and has spent a majority of resources and time in developing its technology.   These conditions raise a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management believes that the Company’s capital requirements will depend on a number of factors including the final phase of product development and the development of its production process as well as product implementation and distribution.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the carrying amounts of recorded assets or the carrying amount and classification of recorded liabilities that may be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

At March 31, 2012, we had an accumulated deficit of $10,579,887 and it is likely that we will incur additional losses in the future. While we have funded our operations since inception from operations and through private placements of equity securities, there can be no assurance that adequate financing will continue to be available to us and, if available, on terms that are favorable to us.

We believe that we will require additional financing to carry out our intended objectives during the next twelve months. There can be no assurance, however, that such financing will be available or, if it is available, that we will be able to structure such financing on terms acceptable to us and that it will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements until we can reach a level of profitable operations and positive cash flows. If we are unable to obtain the financing necessary to support our operations, we may be unable to continue as a going concern. We currently have no firm commitments for any additional capital.
 
A downturn in the United States stock and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Further, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our shares of common stock or the debt securities may cause us to be subject to restrictive covenants. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek additional financing. If additional financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, we will have to curtail our operations.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
Our cash and cash equivalents was $272,599 at the beginning of  the nine months ended March 31, 2012 and increased to $826,900 by the end of such period, an increase of $554,301, or 203.3%.  The increase was primarily attributable to the Company raising capital in amounts greater than its operating costs for the period.
 
Net cash used in operating activities
 
Net cash used in operating activities was $1,216,690 for the nine months ended March 31, 2012, an increase of $31,440 or 2.7% from the comparable period in 2011.  The Company is largely dependent on the capital it raises to fund operations.  When capital is raised the development process is accelerated, and when cash flows are decreased the Company conserves its cash by delaying development and other operating costs.

Net cash used in investing activities
 
Net cash used in investing activities was $0 for nine months ended March 31, 2012, unchanged from March 31, 2011.
 
Net cash provided by financing activities
 
Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,770,991 for the nine months ended March 31, 2012, an increase of $12,164, or 0.7%, from the comparable period in 2011.  This increase was negligible.  The Company’s rate of raising capital had slowed for the first six months of the period due to the lower stock price and accelerated in the last three months of the period concurrent with a recovery in the Company’s stock price.
 
Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements.
 
There were no off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2011.

In connection with an Assignment and Assumption Agreement with Applied Cryptography, Inc. (“ACI”), a corporation controlled by the Company’s president and the owner of certain technology, ACI conveyed, assigned and transferred to the Company all of ACI's rights, title and interest in and to its patents (collectively, the “Patent”) and delegated to the Company all of its duties and obligations to be performed under the Patent.

In consideration for the assignment of the Patent, the Company issued 200,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. ACI may only convert these shares into common shares (in accordance with the conversion terms noted herein) upon delivering to the Company, a third party valuation of the assigned Patent conducted by a nationally qualified accounting firm or IP law firm mutually agreed upon between the Company and ACI, indicating that such Patent is valued at a minimum of $1,000,000.

In connection with the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the Company and ACI entered into an option agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to grant ACI an option to purchase the Patent from the Company for 100,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, only in the event that the Company fails to generate at least $1,000,000 in gross revenues attributable to the Patent at the conclusion of 24 months from the date of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, December 11, 2011.

The Company did not generate the minimum revenue amount by December 11, 2011. As a result, ACI has the right to exercise its option to purchase the Patent from the Company. If this occurs, the Company may be unable to continue to develop and manufacture the SmartMetric Biometric Datacard without first entering into an arrangement with ACI for the right to use the Patent, the terms of which may be unfavorable to the Company. ACI has given no indication that it intends to exercise its option to purchase the Patent.
 
Critical accounting policies and estimates
 
The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
 
Intangible assets
 
SmartMetric did not purchase any intangible assets for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 or March 31, 2011.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
   
 N/A.
 
Item 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
As required by Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2012.

Disclosure controls and procedures refers to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures.
 
Management conducted its evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.  Based on that evaluation, we have concluded that because of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2012.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

In order to correct the foregoing material weaknesses, we have taken the following remediation measures:

1)  
We have committed to the establishment of effective internal audit functions, however, due to the limited resources of the Company, we plan to defer the establishment of an effective internal audit function until our product is ready for production and sale.

2)  
Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible.  However, to the extent possible, we will implement procedures to ensure that the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions will be performed by capable individuals, and will ensure all timely filing of our 10-Qs and 10-K in the future.

We believe that the foregoing steps will remediate the material weaknesses identified above, and we will continue to monitor the effectiveness of these steps and make any changes that our management deems appropriate.  However, as of March 31, 2012, these steps have not been completed.

A material weakness (within the meaning of PCAOB auditing standard No. 5) is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.  A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the company’s financial reporting.

Our management is aware of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, however nothing has come to the attention of management that causes them to believe that any material inaccuracies or errors exist in our financial statements as of March 31, 2012.  The reportable conditions and other areas of internal control over financial reporting identified by us as needing improvement have not resulted in a material misstatement of our financial statements.  Nor are we aware of any instance where such reportable conditions or other identified areas of weakness have resulted in a material misstatement or omission in any report we have filed with or submitted to the Commission.  Accordingly, even though material weaknesses in internal controls exist, management believes there to be no material inaccuracies or errors in the Company’s financial statements as of March 31, 2012.
  
Limitations on Controls

Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.
  
Changes in Internal Controls
 
During the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2012, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1.                        LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
On July 27, 2010, the Company filed a second amended complaint (the “Visa and Mastercard Complaint”) in the United States District Court, Central District of California (the “Court”), Case No. 2:10-cv-01864, against MasterCard, Inc. and Visa, Inc. alleging patent infringement on the Company’s patent, U.S. Patent 6,792,464 (the “’464 Patent”) (the “Visa and Mastercard Case”).

On December 7, 2010, the Company filed a complaint (the “AMEX Complaint”) in the Court, Case No. CV10-9371 JHN (MANx), against American Express Company (“AMEX”) alleging patent infringement on the 464 Patent (the “AMEX Case”).

On June 20, 2011, the Court entered a judgment of non-infringement in both the Visa and Mastercard Case and the AMEX Case based on the Court’s construction of certain of the disputed phrases of the asserted claims of the 464 Patent (the “Judgment”).

On June 30, 2011, the Company filed a Notice of Appeal to the Judgment in the AMEX Case against what the Company believes to be erroneous definition and limitations placed on the 464 patent as a result of wrongful interpretation. On July 1, 2011, the Company filed a Notice of Appeal to the Judgment in the Visa and Mastercard Case against what the Company believes to be erroneous interpretation of definitions and limitations placed on the 464 patent by the Court.  
 
On August 29, 2011, the Company filed a complaint in the United States District Court, Central District of California, against Master Card, Inc. (“MasterCard”) and Visa, Inc. (“Visa”) alleging patent infringement on the 464 patent (the “August 2011 Case”).  The Company is seeking the following relief from MasterCard and Visa:
 
1.  
For an order pursuant to 35 U.S.C. section 271 declaring that both MasterCard and Visa have infringed one or more claims of the ‘464 Patent;
2.  
A preliminary and permanent injunction against both MasterCard and Visa prohibiting each of them from further infringement of the ‘464 Patent;
3.  
An award of actual damages the Company has suffered by reason of the infringement charged in the complaint in an amount not less than a reasonable royalty on both MasterCard’s and Visa’s infringement of the ‘464 Patent:
4.  
An award to the Company of its costs; and
5.  
Such other relief as the Court may deem just and proper.

In the earlier actions against VISA, MasterCard, and AMEX (“collectively the “Defendants”), the Court mandated the Company to narrow its complaint exclusively to patent infringement from Defendants’ revenues from “contactless” credit card/pay systems.  The Court stated:

MasterCard and Visa are infringing … the ‘464 patent in this judicial district by selling, offering to sell and using contactless card systems, namely, VI’s Paywave and MC’s PayPass, that use data cards that, when passed near to a reader, establish connection to a network (the “Systems”), that infringe … the ‘464 patent.

The prior Visa and Mastercard Case and AMEX case excluded physical insertion of a credit card into a recess of a data card reader.  In the August 2011 Case, the Company charged that  Defendants’ “contact” and “contact/contactless” credit card systems infringe the ‘464 patent.  These systems do allow for physical insertion of an EMV/credit card into a recess of a data card reader, therefore presenting  a distinguishing  infringement issue.  This distinction allows the Company the opportunity to pursue its infringement claims against all systems that require or permit the physical insertion of a chip-bearing card into a recess of a data card reader.  
 
On April 11, 2012, the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (the “Appeals Court”) affirmed the Judgment of the Court in the Visa and Mastercard Case and the AMEX case.  While the Appeals Court affirmed the Judgment, it stated that the Court erroneously limited the definition of network service providers even though its construction of “insertion of said data card into said data card reader” was correct.  Moreover, the Court stated that it saw no reason why a data card that communicates with a card reader using an embedded antenna cannot also be inserted into a data card reader to immediately trigger an application program. A copy of the decision of the Appeals Court is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
 
 
The Company intends to vigorously pursue its infringement claim in the August 2011 Case.
 
Item 1A.                     RISK FACTORS

Not Applicable.

Item 2.                       UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company sold 149.96 units representing 7,498,099 shares and twelve month warrants to purchase an additional 7,498,099 shares at $0.80 per share for net proceeds of $999,059.  Units were offered at $5,000 and $10,000 and consisted of 50,000 shares and one twelve month warrant to purchase an additional 50,000 shares at $0.80 per share.

In the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company issued 765,713 shares for legal and consulting services rendered.

Unless otherwise noted in this section, with respect to the sale of unregistered securities referenced above, all transactions were exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and Regulation S promulgated under the 1933 Act. In each instance, the purchaser had access to sufficient information regarding SmartMetric so as to make an informed investment decision. More specifically, we had a reasonable basis to believe that each purchaser was an "accredited investor" and otherwise had the requisite sophistication to make an investment in SmartMetric's securities.
