Note 1. Business and Organization

Outlook

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of our business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, we had a net loss of $645,297 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, and at March 31, 2013, we had negative working capital of $530,226, current assets of $151,457, and an accumulated stockholders’ deficit of $73,444,577. The foregoing factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Ultimately, our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to attract significant new sources of capital, attain a reasonable threshold of operating efficiencies and achieve profitable operations by licensing or otherwise commercializing products incorporating our technology. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

We have been, and anticipate that we will continue to be, limited in terms of our capital resources. Our total cash and cash equivalents were $90,959 at March 31, 2013. We generated revenues of $14,363 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, which amount was not sufficient to fund our operations. We generally have not had enough cash or sources of capital to pay our accounts payable and expenses as they arise, and have relied on the issuance of stock options and common stock, as well as extended payment terms with our vendors, to continue to operate. We will be required to raise substantial additional capital to expand our operations, including without limitation, hiring additional personnel, additional scientific and third-party testing, costs associated with obtaining regulatory approvals and filing additional patent applications to protect our intellectual property, and possible strategic acquisitions or alliances, as well as to meet our liabilities as they become due for the next 12 months.

As of March 31, 2013, we had $100,000 principal amount outstanding on a note payable (see Note 11), and $472,915 of outstanding accounts payable. (See Note 10.)

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, we received $405,000 net proceeds pursuant to our private securities offerings. (See Note 5.)

In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and related condensed consolidated statements of operations, cash flows, and stockholders’ equity include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, necessary for their fair presentation in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions. Estimates are used when accounting for stock-based transactions, account payables and accrued expenses and taxes, among others.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. We are still operating in the early stages of the sales and distribution process, and therefore our operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2013, or for any other period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 30, 2013.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the average cost method. Inventories consisted of:

	December 31, 2012		March 31, 2013
Raw materials	$	43,395	$	44,635
Finished goods (see Note 4)		10,590		7,423
Total inventory	$	53,985	$	52,058

Equipment

For the three-month periods ending March 31, 2012 and 2013 we recorded depreciation expense totaling $1,335 and $0, respectively.

Other Assets

Other Assets consists of payments made to purchase patents related to our efforts in commercializing the ISAN system.

For the three-month periods ending March 31, 2012 and 2013 we recorded amortization expense totaling $0 and $2,730, respectively.

We review intangible assets using our best estimates based on reasonable assumptions and projections. An impairment loss to write such assets down to their estimated fair values is necessary if the carrying values of the assets exceed their related undiscounted expected future cash flows. We also determine impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable.

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, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the period reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates are used when accounting for stock-based transactions, uncollectible accounts receivable, asset depreciation and amortization, and taxes, among others.

Share-based Payments

All share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values.

For stock issued to consultants and other non-employees for services, we record the expense based on the fair market value of the securities as of the date of the stock issuance. The issuance of stock warrants or options to non-employees are valued at the time of issuance utilizing the Black Scholes calculation and the amount is charged to expense.

During the three-month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2013 we recorded an aggregate $40,756 and $19,400 in selling general and administrative expense related to options issued pursuant to the 2007 Plan.

During the three-month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2013 we recorded an aggregate $19,000 and $19,000 in selling general and administrative expense related to options issued outside of the 2007 Plan.

Non-Cash Transactions

We have established a policy relative to the methodology to determine the value assigned to each intangible we acquire, and/or services or products received for non-cash consideration of our common stock. The value is based on the market price of our common stock issued as consideration, at the date of the agreement of each transaction or when the service is rendered or product is received.

The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying these most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results of our financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized as risk and title to products transfers to the customer (which generally occurs at the time shipment is made), the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. We also may generate revenues from royalties and license fees from our intellectual property. Licensees typically pay a license fee in one or more installments and ongoing royalties based on their sales of products incorporating or using our licensed intellectual property. License fees are recognized over the estimated period of future benefit to the average licensee.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

We report basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) for common and common share equivalents. Basic EPS is computed by dividing reported earnings by the weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by adding to the weighted average shares the dilutive effect if stock options and warrants were exercised into common stock. For the three-month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2013, the denominator in the diluted EPS computation is the same as the denominator for basic EPS due to the anti-dilutive effect of the warrants and stock options on the Company’s net loss.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There was no recent accounting guidance issued where the adoption would have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 3. Customer Deposit

On March 24, 2011, we entered into a contract in which Central Garden & Pet Company (“Central”) was granted the exclusive worldwide right and license to sell, market, offer for sale, distribute import, export, and otherwise exploit products that contain the BioLargo technologies in the “pet supplies industry” (which is defined in the agreement, and does not include products for equine or livestock). Pursuant to the Central contract, we received a $100,000 non-refundable deposit which would be credited against future orders, if any.

The rights granted to Central remain exclusive so long as Central purchases a minimum amount of product at various times, as set forth in the agreement. The agreement terminates only upon uncured breach of material warranty or obligation.

On February 11, 2013, we gave Central written notice of their failure to purchase the minimum required product from us to maintain exclusive rights to our technology in the “pet supplies industry” pursuant to the agreement. To maintain exclusive rights, within 60 days of our written notice Central must have either purchased the minimum amount of product or compensate us for lost profits as if they had done so.

Note 4. Deferred Revenue

Horn Warehouse

Our distribution partner, Horn (formerly the E.T. Horn Company), warehouses our product and makes it available to us for later sales, and thus for revenue recognition purposes, prior sales to Horn have been deferred until such time as the product is sold to retailers and/or end-users. As of March 31, 2013, a balance of $8,768 relating to the sale of Odor-No-More product to Horn remains as deferred revenue.

The determination of expense of warrants issued for services or settlement also uses the option-pricing model. The principal assumptions we used in applying this model were as follows:

	2012			2013
Risk free interest rate	.22	–	1.87%		—	%
Expected volatility	150	–	558%		—	%
Expected dividend yield		N/A			—
Forfeiture rate		N/A			—
Expected life in years	0.50	–	3.00		2.5

The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S Treasury yields in effect at the time of grant. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of our common stock. The expected life in years is presumed to be the mid-point between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term.

Warrants issued as part of our Convertible Notes

We recorded $186,108 and $0 of interest expense related to the amortization of the discount on convertible notes for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2013, respectively.

Note 9. Stock-Based Compensation and Other Employee Benefit Plans

2007 Equity Incentive Plan

On August 7, 2007, and as amended April 29, 2011, our Board of Directors adopted the BioLargo, Inc. 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (“2007 Plan”) as a means of providing our directors, key employees and consultants additional incentive to provide services. Both stock options and stock grants may be made under this plan. The Compensation Committee administers this plan. The plan allows grants of common shares or options to purchase common shares. As plan administrator, the Compensation Committee has sole discretion to set the price of the options. The Compensation Committee may at any time amend or terminate the plan.

During the three-month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2013, a portion of the unvested option issuances vested, resulting in selling, general and administrative expense of $30,289 and 19,400, respectively.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2012, we recorded the issuance of an option to purchase an aggregate 6,667 shares of our common stock to an independent member of our Board of Directors, pursuant to the terms of the 2007 Equity Plan which calls for an automatic issuance of an option to any new independent director. The option vests after a period of one year from the date of grant, expires ten years from the date of issuance, and is exercisable at $0.34 per share, the price of our common stock on the grant date. The fair value of this option totaled $2,267 and was recorded as selling, general and administrative expense.

Activity for our stock options under the 2007 Plan for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2013 is as follows:

As of March 31, 2012:	Options Outstanding	Shares Available		Price per share			Weighted Average Price per share

Expected price volatility is the measure by which our stock price is expected to fluctuate during the expected term of an option. Expected volatility is derived from the historical daily change in the market price of our common stock, as we believe that historical volatility is the best indicator of future volatility.

The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes calculation is based on the prevailing U.S Treasury yield as determined by the U.S. Federal Reserve. We have never paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

We recognize compensation expense for stock option awards on a straight-line basis over the applicable service period of the award, which is the vesting period. Share-based compensation expense is based on the grant date fair value estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. Historically, we have not had significant forfeitures of unvested stock options granted to employees and Directors. A significant number of our stock option grants are fully vested at issuance or have short vesting provisions. Therefore, we have estimated the forfeiture rate of our outstanding stock options as zero.

Note 12. Non-Controlling Interest

In May 2012 we formed a subsidiary for the purpose of marketing and selling medical products containing our technology, Clyra Medical Technology, Inc. (“Clyra”). Until December 17, 2012, this subsidiary was wholly owned, with 7,500 shares issued to BioLargo, Inc. On December 17, 2012, Clyra signed executive employment agreements with three individuals, in which each was granted 500 shares of Clyra common stock, one-third of which vested immediately, and the remaining over time. The shares granted to the three executives are restricted from transfer until a sale of the company, whether by means of a sale of its stock or substantially all of its assets, or otherwise by agreement of Clyra, BioLargo and the executives. Given that Clyra was formed in 2012, had no operating history and no assets at the time of the stock grant, and the significant restrictions on sale placed on the shares issued to the executives, the value of such shares was considered to be insignificant on the date of grant.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, the financial impact of Clyra’s operations were de minimis as it relates to the non-controlling interest.

Note 13. Subsequent Events.

Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report and management noted the following for disclosure.

Winter 2013 Private Securities Offering

Pursuant to a private offering of our common stock at a price of $0.30 per share that commenced January 2013, from March 31, 2013 through May 13, 2013, we sold 633,333 shares of our common stock to two accredited investors and received $190,000 gross and $171,000 net proceeds from the sales. (See Note 5.)

Clyra Securities Offering

On December 17, 2012, our subsidiary Clyra began a private securities offering (see Note 5), selling up to 1,000 shares of its common stock at $1,000 per share. Subsequent to March 31, 2013, Clyra modified the terms of its offering, such that, in addition to shares of Clyra common stock, each Clyra investor would receive a warrant to purchase an additional number of shares of Clyra common stock as originally purchased by the investor, at a price of 1,833.33 per share, until July 30, 2015.

Additionally, the offering terms were modified to increase the number of shares of BioLargo common stock into which the Clyra investor could convert his or her Clyra shares, from 2,858 to 3,333 and 1/3 shares of BioLargo common stock. The date until which the investor may tender Clyra shares to BioLargo for conversion was extended to July 30, 2015. The Clyra investors will not receive any further warrants to purchase additional BioLargo common stock.

Relocation of Corporate Office

As disclosed on our Current Report on Form 8-K filed May 2, 2013, we relocated our corporate office to 3500 W. Garry Avenue, Santa Ana, California 92704.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

Overview

By leveraging our suite of patented and patent-pending intellectual property, which we refer to as the “BioLargo Technology”, our business strategy is to harness and deliver nature’s best disinfectant – iodine – in a safe, efficient, environmentally sensitive and cost-effective manner. The core of this innovative technology is the accurate and safe delivery of iodine in a wide range of forms, moieties and conditions. Iodine is an essential nutrient and all natural broad-spectrum disinfectant with no known microbial resistance. When used effectively, it can keep people and the world safer from disease and infection, and can be engaged as a powerful oxidant and catalyst to keep our water, earth, and air clean, safe, and healthy. Our goal is to target our capabilities to create and utilize iodine to improve the quality of life for people worldwide, to protect the environment, all while producing positive economic results for our customers, partners, and shareholders.

Our products offer a solution to an array of pervasive problems, including odor, moisture control, disinfection, wound healing and contaminated water. The iodine most of us are familiar with, sold in pharmacies and used by hospitals, has severe limitations – it is considered toxic, causes staining, and contains a limited dose of the active oxidizing ingredient. Our technology, on the other hand, directly addresses many of these shortcomings – we can deliver iodine’s oxidizing ingredient (“free iodine”) with precision, ranging from very small doses up to very large doses with more than 20 times the power of traditional iodine. We can deliver iodine so that it is both non-toxic and non-staining, thus extending its usefulness well beyond historical product applications. Consequently, we feel our best advantage is to leverage iodine’s breadth to develop uses and products that offer a competitive edge against other technologies. These uses can secure BioLargo its highest value proposition, resulting in sales and licensing opportunities.

The centerpieces of our technology are embodied by our patented and proprietary CupriDyne® and its methods of delivery, the Isan system, and our new “Advanced Oxidation System.” These technologies offer a nearly seamless range of capabilities for the generation, delivery and control of iodine and implementation of iodine in most of its moieties.

Although our technology has potential commercial applications within many industries, we are focusing our efforts in three areas:

The companion animal industry, as a segment of the commercial, household and personal products (“CHAPP”);

Advanced wound care; and

Water treatment.

Within these broad categories, we also narrow our product focus to exploit opportunities that we believe are of high-value to potential customers and that present commercially significant opportunities.

Commercial, Household and Personal Care Products

CHAPP includes broad product categories and many opportunities for the application of our technology. It is defined by the ability to utilize similar, if not identical, consumption products in multiple market segments. Detergents, single use absorbents, wipes, products that provide odor or disinfection control, and stain removal all fall within this category. Packaging ranges from consumer sizes of a few ounces to bulk packaging for commercial or industrial use.

We are currently marketing products in this category under three brands – Odor-No-More, Nature’s Best Solution, and Deodorall. A third party distributor markets “Deodorall Sport”, primarily to the ice hockey industry. We have retained sales representative agencies who specialize in various aspects of the retail market, including pet and mass merchant, to have our products placed and national retailers. Those efforts are ongoing. As of yet, our sales in these brands are nominal.

Advanced Wound Care – Clyra Medical Technologies Subsidiary

In 2012 we formed a subsidiary Clyra Medical Technologies, Inc. (“Clyra”) to commercialize our technology in the medical products industry, with an initial focus on advanced wound care. Our formulated advanced wound care products combine broad-spectrum antimicrobial capabilities with iodine’s natural and well-understood metabolic pathway to promote healing. We believe these benefits, along with reduced product costs as compared with other antimicrobials, give our products a competitive advantage in the marketplace.

In late 2012, Clyra organized a strategic supply agreement with Formulated Solutions, a state-of-the-art FDA registered drug and device manufacturing company in Florida, to make final preparations and apply for a FDA 510(k) approval for its first two products to be sold into the advanced wound care industry. While no assurances can be made about the ultimate success of such applications, given the forward looking nature of such events, the company has retained and engaged a team of experts in the area to guide the company through the process and is not aware of any inherent technical or practical reason that its products would not receive the approvals sought. Given the timing of the FDA process, and the requirement for approval before product can be sold, we do not anticipate product sales until the first half 2014. In the interim, we will continue to seek licensing partners, and refine our product roll out, marketing, and distribution plans.

Results of Operations—Comparison of the three-month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012

Revenue

We generated $14,363 in revenues during the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, and $30,816 in revenues during the three-month period ended March 31, 2012. Our revenue in the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, consisted primarily of sales of our Deodorall branded sports equipment spray, and Odor-No-More branded Animal Bedding Additive. The revenue for the in the three-month period ended March 31, 2012, consisted primarily of sales of our Odor-No-More branded products (our Animal Bedding Additive, Cat Litter Additive, and Facilities and Equipment Wash).

Cost of Goods Sold

Our cost of goods sold was $6,198 or 43% of revenues for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, as compared with $17,772, or 58% of revenues for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012. Our cost of goods sold includes costs of raw materials, contract manufacturing, and proportions of salaries and expenses related to the sales and marketing efforts of our Odor-No-More branded products. Because we have not achieved a meaningful revenue base, and our number of products is increasing, the inclusion of the fixed costs related to the product development and manufacturing increases our cost of goods disproportionately, resulting in high percentage fluctuations.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, General and Administrative expenses were $596,839 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, compared to $700,438 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012, a decrease of $103,599. The largest components of these expenses were:

Salaries and Payroll-related Expenses: These expenses were $183,390 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, compared to $194,472 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012, a decrease of $11,082. There were no cash bonuses, issuances of stock or options to our executives during the three-month period ended March, 31, 2013 as compared to 2012 where we issued stock bonuses to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Technology Officer and Secretary and the expense related to the fair value of the stock issuance to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Technology Officer.

b. Consulting Expenses: These expenses were $191,131 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, compared to $242,357 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012, a decrease of $51,226. The decrease is primarily attributable to a reduced amount of non-cash stock option compensation expense and stock issued for services to consultants in the three months ended March 31, 2013 versus 2012.

c. Professional Fees: These expenses were $75,325 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, compared to $93,358 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012, a decrease of $18,033. This decrease is consistent with our usage of professionals for accounting and legal costs associated with our operations.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses were $51,393 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, compared to $16,311 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012, an increase of $35,082. The increase is related to product research and product development and testing related to our Odor-No-More and Clyra products.

Interest expense

Interest expense totaled $2,500 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, compared to $215,931 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012, a decrease of $213,431. The decrease is primarily due to the reduction of interest expense related to the conversion of all of our outstanding convertible notes with warrants in the fourth quarter of 2012.

Net Loss

Net loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013 was $645,297, a loss of $0.01 per share, compared to a net loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012 of $920,971, a loss of $0.02 per share. The decrease in net loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012 is primarily a reduction of interest expense related to the conversion of all of our outstanding convertible notes and a reduction in compensation expense to consultants from the reduced issuance of stock options.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have been, and anticipate that we will continue to be, limited in terms of our capital resources. Until we are successful in commercializing products or negotiating and securing payments for licensing rights from prospective licensing candidates, we expect to continue to have operating losses. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $90,959 at March 31, 2013. We had negative working capital of $530,226 as of March 31, 2013, compared with negative working capital of $1,425,507 as of March 31, 2012. We had negative cash flow from operating activities of $465,230 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, compared to a negative cash flow from operating activities of $379,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012. We used cash from financing activities to fund operations. Our cash position is insufficient to meet our continuing anticipated expenses or fund anticipated operating expenses. Accordingly, we will be required to raise significant additional capital to sustain operations and further implement our business plan and we may be compelled to reduce or curtail certain activities to preserve cash.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of our business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, we had a net loss of $645,297 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, and an accumulated stockholders’ deficit of $73,444,577 as of March 31, 2013. The foregoing factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Ultimately, our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to attract significant new sources of capital, attain a reasonable threshold of operating efficiencies and achieve profitable operations by licensing or otherwise commercializing products incorporating our BioLargo technology. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

As of March 31, 2013, we had $100,000 principal amount outstanding on a note payable (see Note 11), and $472,915 of outstanding accounts payable. (See Note 10.)

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, we received an aggregate $405,000 net proceeds pursuant to our private securities offerings, consisting of $369,000 from our Winter 2013offering, and $36,000 from the Clyra private securities offering. (See Note 5.)

We will be required to raise substantial additional capital to expand our operations, including without limitation, hiring additional personnel, additional scientific and third-party testing, costs associated with obtaining regulatory approvals and filing additional patent applications to protect our intellectual property, and possible strategic acquisitions or alliances, as well as to meet our liabilities as they become due for the next 12 months. We may also be compelled to reduce or curtail certain activities to preserve cash.

In addition to the private securities offerings discussed above, we are continuing to explore numerous alternatives for our current and longer-term financial requirements, including additional raises of capital from investors in the form of convertible debt or equity. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise any additional capital. No commitments are in place as of the date of the filing of this report for any such additional financings. Moreover, in light of the current unfavorable economic conditions, we do not believe that any such financing is likely to be in place in the immediate future.

It is also unlikely that we will be able to qualify for bank or other financial institutional debt financing until such time as our operations are considerably more advanced and we are able to demonstrate the financial strength to provide confidence for a lender, which we do not currently believe is likely to occur for at least the next 12 months or more.

If we are unable to raise sufficient capital, we may be required to curtail some of our operations, including efforts to develop, test, market, evaluate and license our BioLargo technology. If we were forced to curtail aspects of our operations, there could be a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, valuation of intangible assets and investments, and share-based payments. We base our estimates on anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results that differ from our estimates could have a significant adverse effect on our operating results and financial position. We believe that the following significant accounting policies and assumptions may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity than others.

The methods, estimates and judgments the Company uses in applying these most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results of the Company reports in its financial statements.

We anticipate that revenue will come from two sources: sales of Odor-No-More products and from royalties and license fees from our intellectual property. Odor-No-More revenue is recognized upon shipment of the product and all other contingencies have been met. Licensees typically pay a license fee in one or more installments and ongoing royalties based on their sales of products incorporating or using our licensed intellectual property. License fees are recognized over the estimated period of future benefit to the average licensee.

It the Company’s policy to expense share based payments as of the date of grant in accordance with Auditing Standard Codification Topic 718 “Share-Based Payment.” Application of this pronouncement requires significant judgment regarding the assumptions used in the selected option pricing model, including stock price volatility and employee exercise behavior. Most of these inputs are either highly dependent on the current economic environment at the date of grant or forward-looking expectations projected over the expected term of the award. As a result, the actual impact of adoption on future earnings could differ significantly from our current estimate.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements issued by FASB and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

Inflation

Inflation affects the cost of raw materials, goods and services we use. In recent years, inflation overall has been modest, but we believe inflation may increase our costs in the near future. We seek to mitigate the adverse effects of inflation primarily through improved productivity and strategic buying initiatives. Additionally, some of our products incorporate oil-based polymers, which are subject to price fluctuations based on the price of crude oil, as well as shortages.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Report.

Our procedures have been designed to ensure that the information relating to our company, including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that as of the evaluation date our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

It should be noted that 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, regardless of how remote.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
