Building Loan

 

Effective October 25, 2013, the Company purchased a 6,000 square foot office/warehouse building and associated land located at 22305 Gosling Road, Spring, Texas 77389. The purchase price was $884,508. The Company obtained $649,000 of the purchase price by way of a loan from Bank of Houston, evidenced by a promissory note, which loan bears interest at 5% per annum for three years and the prime rate plus 1% thereafter (not to be less than 5%), and has a maturity date of October 25, 2018. Upon an event of default, the loan bears interest at the lesser of the rate of 5% above the then applicable interest rate of the note, and the greatest amount provided by law. Amortization payments based on a 20-year amortization schedule (initially $4,309 per month) are due on the loan until maturity (recalculated based on the then interest rate after the first three years of the loan). The amount due under the loan is secured by a Deed of Trust, Security Agreement and Financing Statement on the property purchased.

 

Vehicle Loans

 

The Company has entered into a number of loans for the purchase of vehicles used in its business. These vehicles are primarily used by sales and delivery personnel. These installment loans are generally two to six-year loans at interest rates varying from 4.99% to 7.84% and are secured by the vehicles and a personal guarantee of a corporate officer.

 

Related Party Notes Payable

 

In November 2010, the Company entered into an Intellectual Property Purchase Agreement (the “IP Agreement”) with Jerry Swinford, the Company’s then Chief Executive Officer and current Executive Vice President. Pursuant to the IP Agreement, the Company agreed to purchase the patents and pending patents owned and held by Mr. Swinford for $25,000 cash and $1,175,000 in the form of two promissory notes payable to Mr. Swinford (the “Swinford Notes”). The first note, in the amount of $475,000 was paid in full in January 2011. The second note in the amount of $700,000 is due September 15, 2015, and is payable in equal monthly installments of $12,963. The notes are non-interest bearing.  The Company also agreed to grant Mr. Swinford a security interest in all of the Company’s assets in connection with and to secure the repayment of the Swinford Notes and Coil Tubing Technology Holdings, Inc., the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary (“Holdings”) also agreed, pursuant to a Guaranty Agreement, to guaranty the repayment of the Swinford Notes.

 

In connection with the IP Agreement, Mr. Swinford agreed to cancel 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock. As a result of this cancellation, there was a change of control whereby Herbert C. Pohlmann obtained voting control over the Company. Mr. Swinford has a first priority security interest over the patents until such time as the promissory notes are satisfied in full.

 

Future maturities of the notes payable are as follows:

 

2014			247
2015			141
2016			83
2017			76
2018 and later			571
		$	1,118

 

NOTE 5 - STOCK OPTIONS

 

There were no options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

 

 

The Company recognized total option expense of $51,000 and $114,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  The remaining amount of unamortized options expense at March 31, 2014 was $274,000. The intrinsic value of outstanding and exercisable options at March 31, 2014 was $-0-.

 

NOTE 6 – MAJOR CUSTOMERS

 

The Company had gross sales of $1,267,000 and $1,804,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company had one customer representing approximately 13% of gross sales and one customer representing approximately 25% of total accounts receivable for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The Company had two customers that represented approximately 26% and 13% of gross sales and 36% and 15% of total accounts receivable for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

 

NOTE 7 – CONTINGENCIES

 

From time to time, we may become party to litigation or other legal proceedings that we consider to be a part of the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently involved in legal proceedings that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations other than the proceeding described below. We may become involved in other material legal proceedings in the future.

 

On July 25, 2013, Eric Cohen (a shareholder of the Company) filed a lawsuit against the Company, Jerry Swinford (the Executive Vice President and director of the Company), Jason Swinford (the Chief Executive Officer and director of the Company) and Herbert C. Pohlmann (the Company’s majority shareholder and former director)(collectively, the “Defendants”) in the 61st Judicial District Court for Harris County, Texas (Cause No. 2013-43593). The suit seeks monetary damages in excess of $1 million in connection with compensatory damages alleged suffered by Mr. Cohen or seeks a buyout of Mr. Cohen’s interest in the Company. The suit also seeks legal fees and pre-and-post judgment interest. The suit alleges “minority shareholder oppression” and “breach of fiduciary duty” in connection with the actions of Defendants, i.e., that Defendants have engaged in burdensome, harsh or wrongful conduct which has diluted Mr. Cohen’s shares; granted more power to Defendants (for little or no consideration); and granted rights to insiders for less than reasonably equivalent value. The Company disputes Mr. Cohen’s claims and the Company has engaged legal counsel in the matter and filed an answer to the complaint denying Cohen’s allegations.  The Company intends to vigorously defend the case against Cohen’s claims.  At this stage of the litigation, the Company believes the likelihood of material loss is remote. On January 27, 2014, the Company filed a counterclaim against Eric Cohen (plaintiff) requesting damages and attorneys’ fees incurred in this case.

 

 

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) is prepared by Coil Tubing Technology, Inc. Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, in this Form 10-Q all references to “Coil Tubing Technology, Inc.” the “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Coil Tubing Technology, Inc. and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

 

The following discussion and analysis of our results of operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and for the years then ended, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2014 (the “Form 10-K”) and with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto presented in this Form 10-Q.

 

Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

Our disclosure and analysis in this Form 10-Q may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements give our current expectations and projections relating to our financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events. All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this Form 10-Q that address activities, events or developments that we expect, believe or anticipate will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements.

 

These forward-looking statements are largely based on our expectations and beliefs concerning future events, which reflect estimates and assumptions made by our management. These estimates and assumptions reflect our best judgment based on currently known market conditions and other factors relating to our operations and business environment, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control.

 

Although we believe our estimates and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently uncertain and involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are beyond our control. In addition, management’s assumptions about future events may prove to be inaccurate. Management cautions all readers that the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q are not guarantees of future performance, and we cannot assure any reader that those statements will be realized or the forward-looking events and circumstances will occur. Actual results may differ materially from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements due to the factors listed under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K and this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section, or MD&A. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Form 10-Q. We do not intend to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. These cautionary statements qualify all forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf.

 

Our Markets and Business Strategy

 

Our primary markets for our coil tubing products are oil and gas companies engaged in horizontal drilling activities located in the United States and Canada. We rent our products to these oil and gas companies either directly or indirectly through oil service companies. Our revenues are generated by drilling and well services activities which are subject to drilling company budgets and the competitive bundling for our services by oil service companies. During fiscal 2013 and continuing throughout the first three months of 2014, oil and gas service companies, which are our clients, reduced their drilling and work-over operations in Canada, Pennsylvania and Louisiana which continues to have an overall negative impact on our revenues. Our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 were approximately $1,267,000 compared to $1,804,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2013, a decrease of $537,000. We expect our revenues in North America and Canada to continue to be impacted by and to follow the trends in natural gas drilling activities for the remainder of 2014. As discussed below, we are in the process of advancing our technology and global participation in Mexico, South America and Asia to take advantage of the growing coil tubing demands.

 

Based on the current trends in world-wide drilling activities, we have implemented the following strategies:

 

	o	We are entering into Mater Service agreements and joint ventures with multinational oil and gas service companies to integrate and update their coil tubing service capabilities;
	o	We are expanding our product lines using new technology we have developed which has been field tested and approved for use by  our customers; and
	o	We are refocusing our sales targets to include sales of our coil tubing products to large integrated oil companies.

 

 

We believe increasing the availability of our proprietary product lines to our customers is critical to our profitability. Therefore, we will focus on initiatives to drive quarter over quarter sales growth for our existing and new products emphasizing:

 

	o	Expedited delivery time, training and enhanced service at the customers’ sites;
	o	Focusing on the higher margin coil tubing products to be integrated into our customers current and long-term demands; and
	o	Marketing our new product lines to our prospective international customers.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Revenue Recognition.  The Company's revenue is generated primarily from the rental and sales of its tools used for oilfield services primarily in Texas, Louisiana and Pennsylvania in the U.S. and in Alberta, Canada. Rental income is recognized over the rental periods, which are generally from one to thirty days. The estimated amounts of sales discounts, returns and allowances are accounted for as reductions of sales when the sale occurs and the realization of collectability is reasonably assured. These estimates are based on historical amounts and adjusted periodically based on changes in facts and circumstances when the changes become known to the Company. The Company also recognizes rental revenue for the full sales price of any tools which are lost and/or damaged in use (and billed to the customer) and recognizes the net carrying cost of such tool (“manufacturers’ cost” less depreciation) as cost of product and rental revenue.

 

Sales of coil tubing related products are primarily derived from instances where a customer has a specific need for a particular coil tubing related product and desires to have the Company obtain and/or manufacture the particular product. These sales may include replacement parts, as well as proprietary tools which are manufactured to the customer’s specification, but which are not part of the Company’s tool line. The Company generally recognizes product revenue at the time the product is shipped. Concurrent with the recognition of revenue, the Company provides for the estimated cost of product returns. Sales incentives are generally classified as a reduction of revenue and are recognized at the later of when revenue is recognized or when the incentive is offered. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold.

   

Rental Tool Assets.  Approximately 99% of the Company’s revenues are generated from the rental of its coil tubing products. Rental tools are recorded on the Company’s books as rental equipment at “manufacturers’ cost.” Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method over the useful lives of the assets of five years. Lost or destroyed tools are not a significant source of rental tools revenue for the Company. The Company bills customers for the sales price of any tools which are lost and/or damaged in use and the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting revenue or expense is recognized. Lost tools are recognized as product rental revenue and cost of products and rental revenue, respectively.

 

Intangible Assets.  The Company’s intangible assets, which are recorded at cost, consist primarily of the unamortized cost basis of issued and pending patents.  These assets are being amortized on a straight line basis over the estimated useful lives of 15 years. The Company continually evaluates the amortization period and carrying basis of intangible assets to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant a revised estimated useful life or impairment in value. To date, no such impairment has occurred. To the extent such events or circumstances occur that could affect the recoverability of our Intangible assets, we may incur charges for impairment in the future.

 

Stock-Based Compensation.  The Company accounts for stock-based employee compensation arrangements using the fair value method that requires that the fair value of employees awards issued, modified, repurchased or cancelled after implementation, under share-based payment arrangements, be measured as of the date the award is issued, modified, repurchased or cancelled. The resulting cost is then recognized in the statement of earnings over the service period.

 

The Company periodically issues common stock for services rendered and may issue common stock for acquisitions in the future. Common stock issued is valued at fair market value. Management and the board of directors consider market price quotations, recent stock offering prices and other factors in determining fair market value for purposes of valuing the common stock. The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the various weighted average assumptions, including dividend yield, expected volatility, average risk-free interest rate and expected lives.

 

Income Taxes.  The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the 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. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in the period that includes the enactment date.

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company's business operations reflected a decrease in sales for Coil Tubing Technology, Inc. and subsidiaries (“CTT”). For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company's consolidated operations generated revenues of approximately $1,267,000 compared to revenues of $1,804,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2013. The $537,000 decrease in net sales is primarily attributable to a decline in rental orders for coil tubing products and competitive pricing by larger service companies. We expect to increase our revenues to reflect the current trends in the drilling industry based on sales information provided by our largest customers. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company had a gross profit as a percentage of sales of 41%, compared to 53% for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The $433,000 decrease in gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to the prior period, is primarily attributed to the slowdown in orders for our rental products by our largest customers.

 

Revenue Information

 

The following table sets forth summarized consolidated sales information for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

 

We had total revenues of approximately $1,267,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to total revenues of $1,804,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, a decrease in total revenues of $537,000 or 30% from the prior period.  Total revenues included $1,249,000 of rental revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $1,760,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, a decrease in rental revenue of $511,000 or 29% from the prior period. The decrease in rental revenue was mainly due to a decrease in customer demand and an increase in competitive pricing by other large service companies.  We believe that through joint pricing efforts with our partner service companies we will be able to expand our services to new customers in the United States, Mexico and Canada and, accordingly, we will be able to maintain and increase our revenues throughout the remainder of 2014.

 

Cost of Revenue

 

The following table sets forth summarized cost of revenue information for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

 

 

			Three Months March 31,
(in thousands)			2014				2013				$ Change				% Change
Depreciation of rental tools		$	284			$	268			$	16				6	%
Facilities and support expenses			41				61				(20	)			(33	%)
Compensation and benefits			213				234				(21	)			(9	%)
Material, supplies and support service			212				291				(79	)			(27	%)
Total cost of revenue		$	750			$	854			$	(104	)			(12	%)

 

 

Cost of revenue includes costs associated with products and rental sales and depreciation of capitalized rental tool assets that are rented to oil field service companies. We had cost of products and rental revenue of approximately $750,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to a cost of $854,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, a decrease of $104,000 or 12% from the prior period. The main reasons for the decrease was a $79,000 or 27% decrease in material, supplies and support service which was directly related to the decrease in revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to the prior year’s period.

 

Depreciation of Rental Tools

 

Depreciation expense (as a portion of cost of revenues) increased by $16,000 or 6%, to $284,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $268,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, which increase was mainly due to an increase in the depreciable asset base in 2014 versus 2013.

 

Gross Profit

 

We had gross profit of $517,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to gross profit of $950,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, a decrease in gross profit of $433,000 or 46% from the prior period. Our gross profit was 41% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to 53% for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

 

General Operating Expenses

 

The following table sets forth summarized operating expense information for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

 

			Three Months March 31,
(in thousands)			2014				2013				$ Change				% Change
Depreciation and amortization		$	84			$	67			$	17				25	%
Compensation and benefits			210				268				(58	)			(22	%)
General and administrative - Professional services			222				157				65				41	%
General and administrative expenses - Other			79				72				7				10	%
Total general operating expenses		$	595			$	564			$	31				5	%

 

We had total general operating expenses of $595,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to total operating expenses of $564,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, an increase in operating expenses of $31,000 or 5% from the prior period. The increase in general operating expenses was primarily related to an increase in professional service fees related to the 2013 year-end audit and legal fees related to our ongoing lawsuit (see also Part II - Item 1).

 

Selling and Marketing

 

The following table sets forth summarized selling and marketing expense information for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

 

			Three Months March 31,
(in thousands)			2014				2013				$ Change				% Change
Auto		$	96			$	79			$	17				22	%
Commissions			101				191				(90	)			(47	%)
Compensation and benefits			129				110				19				17	%
Other selling and marketing			58				93				(35	)			(38	%)
Total selling and marketing expenses		$	384			$	473			$	(89	)			(19	%)

 

We had total selling and marketing expenses of $384,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $473,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, a decrease of $89,000 or 19% from the prior period, which decrease was primarily due to decreased commissions, selling and marketing expenses (due mainly to our decreased revenues) offset by an increase in auto expense and compensation and benefits.

 

 

Depreciation and Amortization

 

Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $17,000 or 25%, to $84,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $67,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013.  The increase was primarily due to the addition of shop equipment and automobiles.

 

Loss from Operations

 

We had a loss from operations of $461,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared a loss of $69,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, an increase of $392,000 or 568% from the prior period.

 

Other Income (expense)

 

We had other expense of $12,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, which included interest expense of $13,000 offset by $1,000 of other income, versus other income of $3,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, which represented $6,000 of other income offset by $3,000 of interest expense.

 

Net Loss

 

We had a net loss of $473,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to net loss of $66,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, an increase in net loss of $407,000 or 617% from the prior period.  The increase in net loss was attributable to a decrease in total revenue and an increase in certain operating expenses, for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We had $1,844,000 of working capital as of March 31, 2014. We believe we are sufficiently capitalized to continue our growth and are in a position to develop financing alternatives that will enable us to take advantage of growth opportunities in the future.

 

As of March 31, 2014, we had total assets of $8,313,000, which included total current assets of $2,910,000, consisting of $1,121,000 of cash, $1,707,000 of accounts receivable, net, and $82,000 of other current assets; and long term assets including $2,924,000 of rental tools, net; $1,546,000 of property and equipment, net; and $933,000 of intangible assets, net.

 

We had total liabilities of $1,937,000 as of March 31, 2014, which included total current liabilities of $1,066,000, consisting of accounts payable of $591,000; accrued liabilities of $228,000; current portion of related party notes payable of $156,000, relating to amounts owed to Jerry Swinford in connection with the IP Agreement, described in note 4 to the financials included herein, and current portion of notes payable of $91,000, relating to the amount due on loans associated with equipment financing and building loan; and long term liabilities consisting of $52,000 of related party notes payable, net of current portion, relating to amounts owed to Jerry Swinford in connection with the IP Agreement, described in note 4 to the financials included herein, and $819,000 of notes payable, net of current portion relating to equipment financing and our building loan.

    

We had net cash provided by operating activities of $521,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, which consisted of non-cash items including $368,000 of depreciation and amortization, $51,000 of stock-option expense, $119,000 of increase in accrued liabilities, $259,000 of increase in accounts payable, $168,000 of decrease in accounts receivable, and $30,000 of decrease in other current assets offset by $473,000 of net loss.

 

We had $282,000 of net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014, which included the purchase of $207,000 of rental tools and $127,000 of property and equipment; offset by $42,000 in proceeds from the sale of lost tools and $10,000 from the disposal of equipment.  Our principal recurring investing activity was the funding of capital expenditures to ensure that we have the appropriate levels and types of equipment in place to generate revenue from operations.

 

We had $20,000 of net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014, which included $51,000 of proceeds from notes payable related to vehicles, offset by $39,000 of payments on related party notes payable, relating to amounts paid to Jerry Swinford in connection with the IP Agreement, described in note 4 to the financials included herein and $32,000 of payments on notes payable.

 

Effective October 25, 2013, we purchased a 6,000 square foot office/warehouse building and associated land located at 22305 Gosling Road, Spring, Texas 77389. The purchase price was $884,508. The Company obtained $649,000 of the purchase price by way of a loan from Bank of Houston, evidenced by a promissory note, which loan bears interest at 5% per annum for three years and the prime rate plus 1% thereafter (not to be less than 5%), and has a maturity date of October 25, 2018. Upon an event of default, the loan bears interest at the lesser of the rate of 5% above the then applicable interest rate of the note, and the greatest amount provided by law. Amortization payments based on a 20 year amortization schedule (initially $4,309 per month) are due on the loan until maturity (recalculated based on the then interest rate after the first three years of the loan). The amount due under the loan is secured by a Deed of Trust, Security Agreement and Financing Statement on the property purchased.

 

 

The Company’s outstanding notes payable and the material terms thereof are described in note 4 to the financials included herein.

 

The Company has historically been funded through loans provided by, and through the sale of common stock and warrants to, the Company’s largest shareholder and former director, Herbert C. Pohlmann, provided that Mr. Pohlmann is not required to provide us any additional funding and/or to purchase any securities from us in the future.

 

Our immediate plans are to continue our growth by meeting expected demand for our rental tool products in our current geographic markets and further expanding into international markets similar to what we accomplished in Canada during 2012 and 2013. We plan to supplement our cash flow with typical bank debt or similar financing which will enable us to meet larger demand on bigger projects, enter new markets and improve our network for servicing our customers.

 

Moving forward, we anticipate increased spending on research and development activities, which we believe will be required to provide technological advancement to our coiled tubing technologies and workover product lines. We are currently working on a new generation of coil tubing tools to aid in and facilitate horizontal drilling. We expect the market for new applications of coiled tubing to continue to expand our operations throughout the remainder of fiscal 2014, especially in the horizontal drilling and workover applications.

 

In addition to debt financing and our organic growth as discussed above, we may raise funds for further expansion of our tool fleet, development of new tools or to make strategic acquisitions through the sale or exchange of equity securities. Our common stock is now quoted on the OTCQB market, provided that we may choose to list our common stock on the NYSE MKT or NASDAQ Capital Market in the future. As a result of becoming a fully-reporting public company, we believe investors may be more willing to purchase our common stock in private offerings allowing us to raise funding to use for the items described above. The sale of additional equity or debt securities, if accomplished, may result in dilution to our shareholders.

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements:

 

None.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

As a smaller reporting company, as defined in rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we are not required to provide the information mandated by this item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the 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. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

 

Based on our evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were designed at a reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, 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.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting to ensure we maintain an effective internal control environment. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

 

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

From time to time, we may become party to litigation or other legal proceedings that we consider to be a part of the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently involved in legal proceedings that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations other than the proceeding described below. We may become involved in other material legal proceedings in the future.

 

On July 25, 2013, Eric Cohen (a shareholder of the Company) filed a lawsuit against the Company, Jerry Swinford (the Executive Vice President and director of the Company), Jason Swinford (the Chief Executive Officer and director of the Company) and Herbert C. Pohlmann (the Company’s majority shareholder and former director)(collectively, the “Defendants”) in the 61st Judicial District Court for Harris County, Texas (Cause No. 2013-43593). The suit seeks monetary damages in excess of $1 million in connection with compensatory damages alleged suffered by Mr. Cohen or seeks a buyout of Mr. Cohen’s interest in the Company. The suit also seeks legal fees and pre-and-post judgment interest. The suit alleges “minority shareholder oppression” and “breach of fiduciary duty” in connection with the actions of Defendants, i.e., that Defendants have engaged in burdensome, harsh or wrongful conduct which has diluted Mr. Cohen’s shares; granted more power to Defendants (for little or no consideration); and granted rights to insiders for less than reasonably equivalent value. The Company disputes Mr. Cohen’s claims and the Company has engaged legal counsel in the matter and filed an answer to the complaint denying Cohen’s allegations.  The Company intends to vigorously defend the case against Cohen’s claims.  At this stage of the litigation, the Company believes the likelihood of material loss is remote. On January 27, 2014, the Company filed a counterclaim against Eric Cohen (plaintiff) requesting damages and attorneys’ fees incurred in this case.
