InterCore, Inc. and Subsidiary

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2014

(Unaudited)

 

1)Business

 

InterCore, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on April 29, 2010. Through March 20, 2012, the Company focused upon investments and acquisition opportunities primarily in products and companies involved in the market segments of clean and renewable energy, medical technology, nanotechnology, and environmentally-friendly (green) waste management. On March 30, 2012, the Company decided to intensify its focus in the energy sector and the related opportunities within and, to that end, the Board of Directors elected to change the name of the Company from Heartland Bridge Capital, Inc., to InterCore Energy, Inc.

 

On January 23, 2013 and as more fully described in Notes 4 and 5, the Company:

 

a)Transferred investments to a related party in exchange for the assumption of certain obligations. The Company then converted the majority of the remaining accounts payable, notes payable, and other commitments into shares of its common stock; and

 

b)Closed on a transaction with SRG International, Inc. ("SRG") and its shareholders whereby the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of SRG in exchange for ICOR's issuance of 5,000,000 shares of a newly created Series C Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series C"). Immediately after a reverse split of the Company's common stock, which occurred on December 31, 2013, all of the then outstanding shares of Series C automatically converted into 80% of the then outstanding shares of the Company's common stock and the acquisition was accounted for as a purchase of a business. The SRG shareholders which received the initial block of Series C in January 2013 did not perfect their interest in such securities due to non-performance of certain provisions of the acquisition agreement. On October 28, 2013, the Company waived such provisions. Subsequent to January 2013, the Company issued additional shares of Series C to other investors. In December 31, 2014, all outstanding shares of Series C converted into 80% of the then outstanding common shares of the Company.

 

During 2013 the operations of SRG consisted primarily of researching, developing, and testing the Driver Alertness Detection System ("DADS™"). DADS™ is designed around proprietary alertness detection technologies, which enables individuals to modulate their work activity based on real time assessment of their actual state of alertness. The DADS™ methodology employs a unique approach for assessing sleepiness and low alertness levels via the observed behavior of individuals in real work conditions.

 

On December 31, 2013, the name of the Company was changed to InterCore, Inc.

2)Basis of Presentation and Going Concern

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. However, in the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2014 and the related statements of operations and cash flows for the interim period then ended. The balance sheet amounts as of December 31, 2013 were derived from audited financial statements. For further information, refer to the audited financial statements and related disclosures that were filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 on November 13, 2014.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception in April 2010 and has an accumulated deficit of $16,173,931 as of March 31, 2014. Cash used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and the year ended December 31, 2013 totaled $837,155 and $2,929,204, respectively, and the Company has a working capital deficiency of $2,151,051 as of March 31, 2014. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has historically financed its activities through the private placement of equity securities. Since inception, it has dedicated most of its financial resources to general and administrative expenses in the pursuit of the business plan described in the preceding paragraphs and, effective January 23, 2013, research, development, testing and commercialization of the DADS™ technology.

 

The Company’s ability to continue those activities is dependent upon its ability to raise additional equity, secure debt financing, and/or generate revenue.

 

The Company can give no assurance that such financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all, or that it can generate revenue. Should the Company not be successful in obtaining the necessary financing or generating revenue to fund its operations, the Company would need to curtail or cease its operational activities. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

3)Significant Accounting Policies

 

Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All other significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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 for the reporting period. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists with a customer or client, the price to the purchaser is fixed or determinable, the product has been shipped or the service has been performed, the Company has no significant remaining obligation, and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue from cloud-based services arrangements that allow for the use of a hosted software product or service over a contractually determined period of time without taking possession of software are accounted for as subscriptions and recognized as revenue ratably over the coverage period beginning on the date the service is made available to customers.

 

Research and Development - The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred. The Company incurred research and development expense of $1,373,167 and $283,866 during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Additionally, the Company recorded a charge for acquired research and development of $1,467,505 during the three months ended March 31, 2013.

 

Stock-Based Compensation - The Company accounts for options granted to employees by measuring the cost of services received in exchange for the award of equity instruments based upon the fair value of the award on the date of grant. The fair value of that award is then ratably recognized as expense over the period during which the recipient is required to provide services in exchange for that award. Options and warrants granted to consultants and other non-employees are recorded at fair value as of the grant date and subsequently adjusted to fair value at the end of each reporting period until such options and warrants vest, and the fair value of such instruments, as adjusted, is expensed over the related vesting period.

 

Stock-based compensation expense totaled $689,097 and $27,648 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and was classified as follows:

 

   2014   2013 
         
Research and development expense  $308,510   $- 
General and administrative expense   394,862    27,648 
  $703,372   $27,648 

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Share - The Company calculates basic and diluted net loss per common share by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Basic and diluted net loss per common share were the same since the inclusion of common shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of warrants and the conversion of preferred stock in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share would have been anti-dilutive.

The following table summarizes the number of common shares and common share equivalents excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

Warrants   1,174,249    1,127,304 
           
Total   5,774,249    1,127,304

As of December 31, 2013, that customer represented 100% of the Company's accounts receivable balance of $49,714. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company earned 100% of its revenues of $644 from another customer.

 

Foreign Currency Translation - The functional currency of the Company's Canadian operations is the Canadian dollar. Assets and liabilities related to that operation are translated at end-of-period exchange rates while the related revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the period. Unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Gains/Losses on the balance sheet and presented as separate components of activity in the statements of operations. During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, foreign currency translation gains (losses) were ($59,247) and $35,399, respectively.

 

11
 

 

Comprehensive Income (Loss) - The Company reports comprehensive income (loss) and components thereof in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Comprehensive loss consists of net loss and foreign currency translation adjustments affecting shareholder’s deficiency which, under US GAAP, are excluded from net loss.

 

Retroactive Adjustment For Stock Splits - On December 31, 2013, the Company effected a one hundred-for-one reverse stock split of its Common Stock. Consequently, all earnings per share and other share related amounts and disclosures have been retroactively adjusted for those actions.

 

Subsequent Events - The Company has evaluated subsequent events and transactions through the date these financial statements were issued to determine if such events and transactions required adjustment to or disclosure in these financial statements.

 

4)Notes Payable

 

On January 3, 2014, the Company issued a note payable in the amount of $40,000 plus a warrant for the purchase of 10,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $2.00 per share until May 1, 2017. This warrant was 100% vested upon issuance. This note matures on May 1, 2014 and accrues interest at the rate of 12% per annum for the first six months they are outstanding and then 18% per annum thereafter. The warrants were valued at $6,940. This note was issued to a related party as further described in Note 9. The Company recorded a debt discount based on the estimated relative fair values of the instruments issued in the transaction. The Company recorded a debt discount of $5,914 which is amortized over the life of the debt.

 

The interest expense associated with this note for the three months ended March 31, 2014 consisted of the following:

 

Accrued interest of the face amount of the note  $1,144 
Amortization of debt discount   5,205 
  $6,349 

 

5)Series D Preferred Stock

 

Series D Preferred Stock has the following rights and preferences: (i) For each $200,000 invested in 20,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock at $10 per share, the holder of such shares is entitled to royalty payments equal to: a) one percent of the Company's gross revenue until $1,000,000 has been paid to such holder; and b) one half of one percent of the Company's gross revenue until an additional $1,000,000 has been paid to such holder. Such payments are due on a quarterly basis and once payments totaling $2,000,000 have been made to such holder, those shares will cease earning royalty payments and be returned to the Company for no additional consideration; (ii) no dividend rights; (iii) no liquidation rights other than what is owed in connection with the terms described in "(i)" above; (iv) no conversion rights; (v) no redemption rights; (v) no call rights by the Company; and (vi) no voting rights.

6)Adoption of Stock Option Plan and Issuance of Options

 

On February 3, 2014, the Company's Board of Directors approved the adoption of the InterCore, Inc. 2014 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan is intended to aid the Company in maintaining and developing a management team, attracting qualified officers and employees capable of assisting in the future success of the Company, and rewarding those individuals who have contributed to the success of the Company.

 

12
 

 

On that same date, the Board approved the issuance of options to the Company's management team for the purchase of up to 4,600,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $1.00 per share for a period of ten years. The fair value of that option award was $1,384,000. Such options were one-third vested on the date of issuance and the remaining thirds will vest on December 31, 2014 and 2015. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company recorded share-based compensation of $703,372 in this connection.

 

Assumptions made in calculating the fair value of those options were as follows:

 

Risk free interest rate 1.5 %
Dividend yield Zero  
Volatility 100 %
Expected term 4.5 years  

 

A summary of the changes in options outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2014 is as follows:

 

       Weighted   Weighted     
       Average   Average     
       Exercise   Remaining   Aggregate 
   Number of   Price   Contractual   Intrinsic 
   Shares   Per Share   Term (Years)   Value 
                 
Outstanding at December 31, 2013   -    -    -    - 
Granted   4,600,000   $1.00    10.0      
Exercised   -                
Forfeited   -                
Outstanding at March 31, 2014   4,600,000   $1.00    10.0   $-0- 
                     
Options exercisable at March 31, 2014   1,533,333   $1.00    10.0   $-0- 

 

The stock price volatility for the Company’s options was determined by the historical volatilities for industry peers. The risk free rate was derived from U.S. Treasury rates for the applicable periods. The Company utilized the “simplified” method to develop an estimate of the expected term of “plain vanilla” employee options. Dividends were assumed to be zero as the Company has not historically declared any dividends and has no expectations of doing so in the future. The Company attributes the value of stock based compensation to operations on the straight-line single option method.

 

7)Warrants

 

On January 3, 2014 and as more fully described in Note 4, the Company issued warrants in connection with the issuance of a note payable for the purchase of 10,000 shares of common stock through May 1, 2017 at $2.00 per share. Such warrants were 100% vested upon issuance and had a fair value of $6,940.

 

On March 6, 2014, the Company granted a warrant to an advisor to the Company for services rendered for the purchase of 25,000 shares of common stock through March 6, 2019 at $1.00 per share. Such warrants were 100% vested upon issuance and had a fair value of $14,275. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company recorded share-based compensation of $14,275 in this connection.

 

13
 

 

 

Assumptions made in calculating the fair value of warrant were as follows:

 

Risk free interest rate 1.6%
Dividend yield Zero
Volatility 100%
Expected term 2 years

 

The stock price volatility for the Company’s options was determined by the historical volatilities for industry peers. The risk free rate was derived from U.S. Treasury rates for the applicable periods. The life of the warrant was the contractual life of the grant. Dividends were assumed to be zero as the Company has not historically declared any dividends and has no expectation of doing so in the future.

 

A summary of the changes in warrants outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2014 is as follows:

 

       Weighted   Weighted     
       Average   Average     
       Exercise   Remaining   Aggregate 
   Number of   Price   Contractual   Intrinsic 
   Shares   Per Share   Term (Years)   Value 
                 
Outstanding at December 31, 2013   1,293,304   $5.80    3.9    - 
Granted   35,000   $1.29    4.6      
Exercised   -

Warrants exercisable at March 31, 2014   1,328,304   $5.64    3.5   $50,000 

  

8)Commitments and Contingencies

 

 

The Company is subject to litigation in the ordinary course of business. Certain conditions may exist as of the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company, or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims, as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

 

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.

 

Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed, unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. There can be no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial position, and results of operations or cash flows. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012 the Company has not accrued for any loss contingencies.

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

 

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains statements that are historical facts and statements that are forward-looking (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Forward-looking statements are, by their very nature, uncertain and risky. These risks and uncertainties include international, national, and local general economic and market conditions; demographic changes; our ability to sustain, manage, or forecast growth; our ability to successfully make and integrate acquisitions; raw material costs and availability; new product development and introduction; existing government regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulations; adverse publicity; competition; the loss of significant customers or suppliers; fluctuations and difficulty in forecasting operating results; changes in business strategy or development plans; business disruptions; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the ability to protect technology; and other risks that might be detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Although the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Statement reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known or believed by them. Consequently, and because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports as we attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.

 

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations of the Company is based upon, and should be read in conjunction with, its unaudited financial statements and related notes elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. All dollar amounts in this section have been rounded to the nearest thousand.

 

Overview

 

Corporate History Prior to December 31, 2012

 

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on April 29, 2010. Through March 20, 2012, we focused on investments and acquisition opportunities primarily in products and companies involved in the market segments of clean and renewable energy, medical technology, nanotechnology, and environmentally-friendly (green) waste management.

 

On March 30, 2012, we decided to further intensify our focus in the energy sector and the related opportunities within and, to that end, we elected to change the name of the Company to InterCore Energy, Inc.

 

19
 

 

Through December 31, 2012 and as more fully described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year then ended as filed with the Commission on June 25, 2013, we assembled a portfolio of investments in the life sciences and energy arenas. However, we found this approach to be lacking in appeal to investors, thereby making it difficult to raise capital to fund investments once we identified them and to fund the operations of the Company.

 

Corporate History Subsequent to December 31, 2012

 

a)Acquisition of SRG International, Inc.

 

On January 23, 2013, we consummated a transaction with SRG, and the shareholders of SRG who were the owners of 100% of the outstanding common stock of SRG, pursuant to which the shareholders of SRG transferred to us all of the common stock of SRG in exchange for 5,000,000 shares of our Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, which shares were convertible into 80% of our then outstanding common stock immediately after consummation of a reverse stock split. As a result of this transaction and a transaction with HLBCDC (whereby we sold our assets and operations in exchange for relief from certain debt obligations, as described earlier and in greater detail below), SRG became our wholly-owned subsidiary and we became a holding company with all of our current operations conducted through SRG.

 

Those operations consisted primarily of researching, developing, and testing the Driver Alertness Detection System ("DADS™"). DADS™ is designed around proprietary alertness detection technologies, which enables individuals to modulate their work activity based on real time assessment of their actual state of alertness. The DADS™ methodology employs a unique approach for assessing sleepiness and low alertness levels via the observed behavior of individuals in real work conditions.

 

b)Assignment and Assumption Agreement

 

Simultaneously with consummating the transaction with SRG, we closed a transaction contemplated by an Assignment and Assumption Agreement between us and HLBCDC pursuant to which the majority of the assets we owned prior to the acquisition of SRG were transferred to HLBCDC in exchange for HLBCDC assuming the majority of our liabilities and receiving our common shares and a warrant for the purchase of additional common shares. The assets we transferred to HLBCDC were the shares we owned in Legends and Epec as well as the intangible rights associated with the Myself™ pelvic muscle trainer and a novel medical applicator referred to as the “Soft and Smooth Assets.” In addition to transferring those assets, we issued to HLBDC 402,038 shares of our common stock (the “HLBCDC Shares”) and warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of our common stock at the exercise price of $0.55 per share (the fair market value of our common stock as of the date of the Agreement) (the “HLBCDC Warrant”). In exchange for the assets, the HLBCDC Shares, and the HLBCDC Warrant, HLBCDC agreed to assume liabilities valued at $985,948 consisting of fees owed to management, notes payables, and trade payables.

 

20
 

 

c)Asset Purchase Agreement

 

Immediately prior to consummating the transaction with SRG, we closed a transaction contemplated by an Asset Purchase Agreement with Rockland, our majority shareholder. and an entity controlled by one of our Directors. Pursuant to that agreement, we sold the shares we owned in HepatoChem to Rockland in exchange for Rockland agreeing to forgive $579,938 of debt owed to it by us.

 

d)MeliaLife Agreement

 

On March 12, 2013, we entered into a Distribution Agreement (the “Distribution Agreement”) with MeliaLife International, Inc. (“MeliaLife”), pursuant to which we were awarded the rights to distribute and sell various natural supplement products produced by MeliaLife. Under the terms of the Distribution Agreement we would be the exclusive distributor to sell certain products as described therein (the “Products”). The duration of the Distribution Agreement is the lesser of five (5) years, or when we purchase Products in an amount by which the MeliaLife has received $30 million, representing 50% of the total product value of the Products purchased by us, whichever happens first. At the end of this contract, MeliaLife would assign its rights in all the Products to us for 4% of future net profits (total product value minus direct costs related to the Products), calculated and paid monthly, generated by the sale by us of those Products worldwide.

 

Our relationship with MeliaLife as been inactive since the date of the Distribution Agreement and we expect it to expire of its own accord with the passage of time.

 

Going Concern

 

These financial statements were prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. Our ability to do so is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing, reduce expenditures, and/or generate revenue, any and all of which is uncertain. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of that uncertainty.

 

Current cash and working capital resources, including funds recently received from the sale of equity securities, are not sufficient to support our activities. We plan to fund our activities through the sale of equity securities as more fully described in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section in the following paragraphs.

 

21
 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We had cash of $143,000 as of March 31, 2014 compared to $23,000 as of December 31, 2013. This net increase of $120,000 was attributable:

 

$1,016,000   Cash received through financing activities
 (896,000)  Cash used in operating activities net of the effect of foreign exchange rate changes
$120,000   Net increase

 

We have incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception in April 2010. We have an accumulated deficit of $16,174,000 and a working capital deficiency of $2,151,000 as of March 31, 2014. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We have historically financed our activities through the sale of debt and the private placement of equity securities. Through December 31, 2012, we have dedicated our financial resources to investments as well as general and administrative expenses in the pursuit of the business plan described in the preceding paragraphs. Subsequent to that date, we have dedicated our financial resources to the researching, developing, and testing of the Driver Alertness Detection System™ (DADS™) as well as general and administrative expenses.

 

We plan to fund our development and eventually commercialization activities beyond March 31, 2014 primarily through the sale of debt and/or equity securities. Subsequent to March 31, 2014 and through the date of this report, we have raised $7,092,000 through the sale of debt and equity securities.

 

However, we cannot be certain that such funding will continue to be available on acceptable terms or at all. To the extent that we secure additional debt or raise funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience significant dilution. If we are unable to raise funds when required or on acceptable terms, we may have to: a) Significantly delay, scale back, or discontinue the development and/or commercialization of DADS™; b) Seek collaborators at an earlier stage than would otherwise be desirable and/or on terms that are less favorable than might otherwise be available; c) Relinquish or otherwise dispose of rights to technologies, product candidates, products, or services that we would otherwise seek to develop or commercialize ourselves; or d) Otherwise curtail or cease operational activities.

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The following accounting policies are critical in fully understanding and evaluating our financial statements:

 

a)Accounting for acquisitions;
b)Accounting for research and development costs; and
c)Stock-based compensation.

 

22
 

 

Our accounting policies are described in Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2014 contained elsewhere in this report and in Note 3 to the audited financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

 

Results of Operations

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013

 

Revenues and Cost of Revenues

 

Revenues of $190,000 reported for the three months ended March, 2014 were attributable to fees earned related to the trials and testing of the DADS™ System.

 

Revenues of $1,000 reported for the three months ended March, 2013 were attributable to the licensing of development and marketing rights to a novel medical applicator. As previously discussed in the Overview section, that asset was transferred to HLBCDC effective January 23, 2013. Consequently, there will be no such revenues recognized in the future.

 

There were no direct costs of revenues associated with either of these sources of revenue.

 

Research and Development Expense

 

Research and development expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $1,373,000 compared to $284,000 for the comparable period in the prior year. Such expenses during were exclusively related to the development of the DADS™ System. This increase of $1,089,000 was attributable to expanded activities in that regard and consisted primarily of an increase in salaries and benefits of $714,000 and an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $309,000.

 

Charge for Acquired Research and Development Expense

 

The charge for acquired research and development expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $1,468,000. As previously indicated, we acquired SRG on January 23, 2013 and its operations consist primarily of research, development, testing, and commercialization of the DADS™ System. We accounted for the acquisition of SRG under the purchase method of accounting whereby assets acquired and liabilities were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the date of the acquisition. A total of $1,468,000 was allocated to acquired in-process research and development and, in conformity with generally accepted accounting practices to expense such costs as incurred, that amount was immediately charged to expense.

 

There was no similar expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

General and Administrative Expense

 

General and administrative expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $829,000 compared to $216,000 for the comparable period in the prior year. This increase of $613,000 was attributable to an increase in salaries and benefits of $235,000 and an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $367,000. Remaining general and administrative expenses consisted primarily of professional fees for management, legal, financial advisory, and audit services and were overall consistent with the comparable period in the prior year.

 

Other Expense

 

Other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $54,000 and consisted exclusively on interest expense. Other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $1,738,000 and consisted primarily of a number of charges related to transactions executed in advance of the acquisition of SRG on January 23, 2013. In those transactions we divested ourselves of a number of assets which were not complimentary to our stated goal of developing the ADS™ System and would hamper our ability to raise funds in that regard. In summary and as shown in the Statement of Operations, other expense consisted of:

 

$188,000   Cash and common shares issued to Epec in connection with concluding our commitment to make further investments in that entity
      
 884,000   The fair value of shares in excess of the carrying value of a note payable due to the Rockland Group, one of our major shareholder and an entity controlled by one of the members of our Board of Directors, as an inducement for Rockland to convert that note into common stock.
      
 171,000   The fair value of shares in excess of the book value of accounts payable due to several vendors as an inducement for them to convert those amounts into common stock.
      
 331,000   The fair value of shares of common stock and warrants in excess of the net book value of certain assets and liabilities assumed by HLBCDC as an inducement for that entity to enter into that transaction. It is intended that New Horizon, Inc. and certain member of ICOR's Board of Directors and management team will collectively receive 78% of any future economic benefit derived from the management of those assets by HLBCDC after the satisfaction of the assumed liabilities.
      
 142,000   Interest expense related to a short-term $50,000 note payable to Fandeck Associates which accrued interest at 18% per annum and was convertible into Series C Convertible Preferred Stock at $0.001 per share.  This note was issued with warrants valued in excess of the face value of the note and earned a service fee of $25,000.
      
 23,000   Other interest expense
      
$1,739,000

Other Comprehensive Gain (Loss)

 

Other comprehensive gain (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was ($59,000) compared to $35,000 for the comparable period in the prior year. This change of $94,000 was attributable to changes in the exchange rate between the Canadian and United States dollars and the effect of those changes upon the translation of SRG's financial statements into United States dollars.

 

ITEM 3Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

 

ITEM 4Controls and Procedures

 

a)Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We conducted an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (our principal 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, or the Exchange Act, as of March 31, 2014 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission's rules and forms, including to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of March 31, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level as evidenced by the inability of the Company to file its 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 in a timely manner. This deficiency is attributable to a lack of qualified financial personnel within the Company, specifically at SRG, and cash flow constraints that limited the Company in obtaining the services of external professionals necessary to fulfill its reporting obligations in a timely manner.

 

b)Management Reporting on Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as amended, as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and includes those policies and procedures that:

 

25
 

 

i)Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and any disposition of our assets;

 

ii)Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and

 

iii)Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

A material weakness 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. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2014. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, management has identified the following material weaknesses that have caused management to conclude that, as of March 31, 2014, our internal control over financial reporting, were not effective at the reasonable assurance level:

 

i)We do not have a sufficient number of qualified internal accounting personnel, specifically at SRG, nor an adequate internal reporting structure necessary to meet the reporting requirements of a public company.

 

ii)We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. 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, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets, and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.

 

iii)We have not documented our internal controls. We have limited policies and monitoring procedures that cover the recording and reporting of financial transactions and accounting provisions. As a result we may be delayed in our ability to calculate certain accounting provisions. While we believe these provisions are accounted for correctly in the attached unaudited financial statements, our lack of internal controls could lead to a delay in our reporting obligations and possibly the delays we encountered with the SRG transaction. Reporting companies have been required to provide written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting beginning with fiscal years ended on or after December 31, 2009. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.

 

26
 

 

To address these material weaknesses, management performed additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that the financial statements included herein fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Accordingly, we believe that the consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

c)Remediation of Material Weaknesses

 

The material weaknesses described above and summarized below are expected to be remediated when additional financial resources are made available to us through either additional fundraising and/or cash flows from operations. Those weaknesses consist of:

 

  i) The absence of a sufficient number of qualified internal accounting personnel, specifically at SRG, and an adequate internal reporting structure necessary to meet the reporting requirements of a public company;
     
  ii) The lack of segregation of duties; and
     
  iii) The absence of documented internal controls.

 

During 2015, the Company plans to hire qualified personnel, improve the internal reporting structure, improve segregation of duties, and document internal controls as financial resources permit.

 

d)Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Effective January 23, 2013, we acquired SRG, a foreign entity based in Canada through which we conduct most of our day-to-day business activities. Consequently, as described above, the material weaknesses combined with the acquisition of SRG have affected our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2014.
