The Company has decided to discontinue the manufacturing of its hunting and swimming line of apparel. The Company has booked a reserve against this inventory at July 31, 2014 and October 31, 2013 of $52,000. Management will continue to evaluate its obsolete inventory reserve throughout the year and make adjustments as needed.

Innovative Designs, Inc. (the “Company”) calculates net income (loss) per share in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 260 “Earnings per Share”. Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. During the periods presented, the Company only has common stock outstanding. As a result, diluted earnings per share was not calculated.

 

NOTE 5.

The Company only has one manufacturer that produces the apparel and the INSULTEX material for the House Wrap on behalf of the Company, located in Indonesia. The Company will send deposits to the manufacturer for future production of the apparel and/or INSULTEX material, as the case may be, based on approved purchase orders between the Company and the manufacturer. Once finished purchase orders are received by the Company, the deposits associated with those purchase orders are transferred into inventory.

Deferred income taxes are provided for differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and the financial reporting amounts at the end of the period, and for net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards available to offset future taxable income.

The Company will continue to evaluate its income tax obligation throughout the year and will record a tax provision when it is necessary.

 

NOTE 7.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

During the quarter ended July 31, 2014, we funded our operations from revenues from sales, short-term advances, private sales of our securities and additional borrowings.

 

Short Term: We will continue to fund our operations from sales and short term borrowings from shareholders and others and the possible sale of our securities. We continue to pay our creditors when payments are due. We will require more funds to be able to order the material for our House Wrap product and to purchase equipment needed for the manufacture of the product.

 

Long Term: The Company will continue to fund its operations from revenues, borrowings from private parties and the possible sale of our securities. Should we not be able to rely on the private sources for borrowing, our operations would be severely effected as we would not be able to fund our purchase orders to our suppliers for finished goods.

 

Our House Wrap product continues to await the International Code Council’s certification of the lab which certifies the R value of House Wrap. Once such certification is obtained, we believe that the R value of House Wrap will be increased such that large home builders will be able to use the product in their home construction. We cannot predict with any degree of certainty as to when such certification will be obtained. House Wrap is currently being offered, online, by Lowes and Home Depot.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 2.

UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

 

During May through July 2014, the Company sold its common stock to twenty-six private investors. The common stock was sold at prices ranging between $.40 and $.70 per share. A total of 1,080,680 shares were sold resulting in total proceeds of $632,340. The registrant intends to use the proceeds from the sales to purchase raw material inventory, invest in new equipment and general working capital purposes. No sales commissions were paid. We believe that Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, was available because the sales did not involve a public offering and there was no general solicitation or general advertising involved in the sales and all investors were “accredited investors” as that term is defined in Regulation D. We placed legends on the stock certificates stating that the securities were not registered under the Securities Act and set forth the restrictions on their transferability and sale.

 

In June 2014, a shareholder converted his note into common stock at approximately $.60 per share. The shareholder converted a $12,500 note into 20,800 shares of our common stock. We believe that Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, was available because the conversion did not involve a public offering and there was no general solicitation or general advertising involved in the conversion. We placed legends on the stock certificates stating that the securities were not registered under the Securities Act and set forth the restrictions on their transferability and sale.

 

During May and June 2014, the Company issued an aggregate of 80,000 shares of our common stock, to four individuals for professional services. These issued shares were valued at either $.40 or $.50 a share for an aggregate price of $34,500. We believe that Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, was available because these transactions did not involve a public offering and there was no general solicitation or general advertising involved in these transactions. We placed legends on the stock certificates stating that the securities were not registered under the Securities Act and set forth the restrictions on their transferability and sale.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Management has developed and implemented a policy and procedures for reviewing, on a quarterly basis, our disclosure controls and procedures. During the quarter ended July 31, 2014, our principle executive/financial officer concluded that these controls and procedures were ineffective. At this time we do not have the financial resources to employ a financial staff with accounting and financial expertise, once we have the necessary financial resources, we plan to hire and designate an individual responsible for identifying reportable developments and to implement procedures designed to remediate the material weakness by focusing additional attention and resources in our internal accounting functions. During the fourth quarter of 2013 and the first quarter ended January 31, 2014, the Company was not able to close the books and records in a timely fashion. Consequently, the Company was unable to file its Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2013 or the Form 10-Q for the period ended January 31, 2014 within the timeline established by the SEC and was required to seek an extension for filing the form. There were no reclassifications made during the third quarter of 2014.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

During the most recent fiscal quarter, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13(a)-15 or 15d-15 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
