ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS


OVERVIEW


Universal Detection Technology (the "Company," “UDT” or "We") is engaged in the marketing and resale of detection devices for chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) threats. Through agreements with various third parties we supply bioterrorism detection kits capable of detecting anthrax, ricin, botulinum, plague, and SEBs, mold detection kits, chemical detection equipment, radiation detection systems, and counter-terrorism training references.


We have entered into supply and distribution agreements with various parties enabling us to supply a host of products and services for detection of hazardous materials and training references. By combining our in-house experience and knowledge and outside expertise offered by various consultants and third parties, we have added threat evaluation and consulting services, and training courses to our services. We sell and market security and counter-terrorism products including bioterrorism detection kits, chemical detectors, radiation detection systems, and training references. Some of the products and services we offer have not been sold to date and there is no guarantee that any of them will generate any interest or be sold in the market in the future. We plan to continue expanding our product base and intend to sell products to more users inside and outside the U.S. Our strategy is to generate sales by enhancing our web presence and marketing the Company as a supplier of complete CBRN detection equipment. We plan to attend various industry trade shows and to offer products in certain training scenarios so that first responders can become more familiar with our products. Our target customer markets primarily consist of first responders with some emphasis on the bioterror and military defense market. Our geographical customer focus is on the U.S., Europe, and Asia. There is no guarantee that we will succeed in implementing this strategy or if implemented, that this strategy will be successful.


Subsequent to the March 11, 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan, we saw an increased demand in our radiation detection equipment. In response we formed new alliances with manufacturers of dosimeters and survey meters to supply the Japanese market. We witnessed increased sales of these systems and have shipped several units to Japanese customers since the disaster.


In late 2011 we started research and development on a new line of radiation detectors that can monitor the environment and surfaces for radiation and communicate the results with a smartphone enabling the user to save and share the test results instantaneously. In December 2011 we announced entering into an agreement with Honeywell India (a unit of Honeywell International) to develop a radiation detector which would display radiation data collected via Bluetooth to a smartphone. The product is designed to detect radiation levels on surfaces and food and to automatically send the collected data to a smartphone. According to the agreement with Honeywell, any and all intellectual property including any patents which may be filed will be the sole property of Universal Detection Technology.

We named this product RadSmart and while we expected to bring it to the market in 2012, technical and funding problems have postponed the release. We now anticipate the market release of RadSmart to be in 2013. In March 2012, we applied for a Federal Trademark for RadSmart with the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). On October 16, 2012 our trademark was registered under registration number 4,225,651 with the USPTO. The mark consists of standard characters without claim to any particular font, style, or color and it is for radiation detectors, in class 9 (U.S. CLS. 21, 23, 26, 36 AND 38).


RadSmart utilizes a Hamamatsu Cesium Iodide (CsI) scintillator for the detection of Gamma rays. Cs(I) scintillators are the most sensitive detection mechanisms for detecting Gamma radiation. The instrument will be sensitive enough to measure normal radiation levels to 100 to 200 times that intensity. With the planned detection range of 0.001 to 9.999 uSv/h the device is expected to be capable of detecting traces of radiation on surfaces, clothing and in particular food contamination, which has become an increasing concern globally after the Fukushima disaster in Japan.


In 2013 we realized revenues of $87,927 from sales. We have incurred losses for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 in the approximate amounts of $416 thousand and 1.6 million, respectively, and have an accumulated deficit of $50.8 million as of December 31, 2013. At December 31, 2013, we were in default on certain debt obligations totaling approximately $443,500 in addition to accumulated interest of approximately $919,000. We require approximately $1.2 million in the next 12 months to repay debt obligations. We do not anticipate that our cash on hand is adequate to meet our operating expenses over the next 12 months. In addition, we do not have adequate capital to repay all of our debt currently due and becoming due in the next 12 months. We principally expect to raise funds through the sale of equity or debt securities. During the past 12 months, management spent the substantial majority of its time on sales and marketing of the Company’s products and services. These activities diverted management from capital raising activities. We will actively continue to pursue additional equity or debt financing in the coming months, but cannot provide any assurances that it will be successful or on terms that are acceptable to us. If we are unable to pay our debts as they become due and are unable to obtain financing on terms acceptable to us, or at all, we will not be able to accomplish any or all of our initiatives and will be forced to consider other alternatives including suspending our business operations.


INDUSTRY BACKGROUND


The tragic events of September 11, 2001 redefined a new age of public safety and security, not only for the United States, but also for the entire world. In the wake of the tragedy, the world was shocked to learn of another nontraditional, deadly asymmetric weapon that was being deployed: lethal bioagents. A week after 9/11, envelopes containing anthrax, delivered by the U.S. Postal Service, were sent to five news media outlets, and on October 9th, two U.S. Senate offices. By November 2001, 22 people in four states and the District of Columbia contracted anthrax, many of them through the tainting of letters via the postal sorting machines. In all, the bioterrorism attacks claimed six lives.


The Commission on the Prevention of Weapons of Mass Destruction Proliferation and Terrorism, led by an independent U.S. congressional committee, asserts that a large scale biological attack, expected to hit somewhere in the world by the end of 2013, has yet to be seen.


Along with the grave predictions in the December 2008 report, World at Risk, the Commission on the Prevention of Weapons of Mass Destruction Proliferation and Terrorism, led by an independent U.S. congressional committee, listed recommendations on how the government can reduce the risk of a biological attack. In January 2010, the commission issued a report card following up on those recommendations. For its efforts to “enhance the nation’s capabilities for rapid response to prevent biological attacks from inflicting mass casualties,” the government received an “F” letter grade.


The United States Department of Homeland Security was formed to consolidate the federal government's efforts to secure the U.S. homeland, with the primary goal being an America that is stronger, safer, and more secure. The private sector also has responded to the need for preparedness against bioterrorism by developing numerous anti-terror products and services. As a result a market for anti-terror products and counter-attack products in the bioagent, nuclear, physical and radiological spheres has developed and continues to expand.


In 2011 a tragedy took place in Japan that changed the dynamic, size, and requirements of the market for equipment used to detect radiation and identify radioactive isotopes. On March 11, 2011 an earthquake sent a tsunami barreling into the coast, sparking a nuclear crisis at Fukushima, Japan. The tsunami caused massive damage to nuclear reactors causing unsafe levels of radioactive material to be spread over residential areas, agricultural land, and other surroundings. The people of Japan have since conducted widespread detection and decontamination efforts to repair the damages caused by the disaster. The tragedy, however, has opened the eyes of the public and experts alike to the hazards of radiation dissemination. The market for radiation detection systems has changed drastically. Not only the size of the market has increased but also there is a need for smarter, more accurate, smaller, and more user friendly systems.

OUR SOLUTIONS


Universal Detection Technology is a supplier of equipment and services used for detection of:


·

Chemical threats

·

Biological threats

·

Radiological and Nuclear threats

·

Mold


The chemical detection kits we offer serve to equip first responders and military personnel with tools that rapidly identify the presence of a chemical agent threat, such as extreme levels of acidity or basicity, chlorine/fluoride, hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide. Designed for use in the field for first responders or military personnel, the "Chameleon" detection system offers hands-free detection for harmful chemical agents and eliminates the need for a liquid sample. Users wear a portable chemical detection kit on their forearm. Each armband has a cassette holder containing up to ten (10) small cassettes, each of which can detect a unique chemical agent and identify its presence through a clear color-changing indicator. The Chameleon armband is fully functioning in extreme temperatures (-30 C to 50 C or -22 F to 122 F), and can operate while fully immersed in water. The Chameleon armband is a handheld chemical detection device which we market and sell to first responders. We purchase and distribute the Chameleon device from Morphix Technologies under an open-ended supply and distribution agreement. To date, we have sold a nominal number of such units resulting in insignificant revenue amounts. We have no exclusive rights under the distribution agreement and the agreement may be terminated upon 30 days prior notice by either party, or immediately upon a breach of the agreement. Under the terms of the Agreement, we are permitted to sell these products within the United States only.


The Company also supplies a handheld gas and vapor detector called ChemPro100i used for detection and classification of toxic industrial chemicals (TICs) and chemical warfare agents (CWAs). ChemPro100i’s multi-sensor detection array has 10 sensing channels, with a unique open-loop Ion Mobility Spectroscopy (IMS) sensor at its heart, to provide CWA sensitivity below military action levels, quick response and industry-leading false alarm rejection even to low vapor pressure threats like VX. We purchase and distribute the ChemPro100i device from Environics under an open-ended supply and distribution agreement. To date, we have not sold any ChemPro100i units resulting in no revenue. We have no exclusive rights under the distribution agreement and the agreement may be terminated upon 30 days prior notice by either party, or immediately upon a breach of the agreement. Under the terms of the Agreement, we are permitted to sell these products within the United States only.


The Company’s biological detection equipment gives first responders the ability to immediately identify the presence of deadly agents in a sample. These biological detection kits are handheld assays capable of detecting anthrax, ricin toxin, botulinum, plague, SEBs, and tularemia. The Company is in the process of adding more biological agents to the list of the threats that these handheld kits can identify. The detection kits are sold as TS-10-5, TS-10-T-5, ANT-12, RIC-12, BOT-12, PLA-12, SEB-12, TUL-12. We purchase and distribute these kits from Advnt Biotechnologies, LLC under a one year VAR and distribution agreement. We have no exclusive rights under the distribution agreement. The agreement may be terminated by either party upon 60 days prior notice by either party or immediately upon a breach of the agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, we are permitted to sell these products throughout the world with no geographic restrictions.


In February 2011, the Company entered into a reseller agreement with Mirion Technologies Inc. (“Mirion Technologies”). Through the agreement, the Company offered nuclear detection and monitoring devices created and made by Mirion Technologies that include electronic dosimetry and teledosimetry devices. We had no exclusive rights under the distribution agreement. Under the terms of the original agreement, we were permitted to sell these products in the United States only. However, we amended the agreement via various items of correspondence with Mirion such that we can also sell these products in Japan. In April 2011, Mirion Technologies informed us that we could no longer purchase products directly from them to fill our orders and sales to Japan and the US. Through their referral and our own efforts, we have found several alternative suppliers of Mirion Technologies’ products, from whom we have been able to procure inventory and meet the demand of our customers thus far. As of April 2011, we no longer consider Mirion Technologies a supplier and do not rely on direct purchase of products from them.


In 2011 we initiated research and development efforts to design and produce a unique scintillator based radiation detection survey meter that would communicate its readings with a smartphone wirelessly via a Bluetooth module. We believe that using the computing power of the smart phone and new detection technologies will allow us to produce a much smaller and more accurate unit that will be more capable in terms of mapping, saving, and sharing the results over communication networks. We expected to unveil the first prototype of this device in 2012. However, due to lack of funding and a few technical difficulties with testing the technology that has been pushed back. We anticipate to unveil a prototype of RadSmart in 2013.

UDT’s Mold detection kit utilizes a highly accurate testing technology called immunochromatographic assay, also known as a rapid test or Hand-Held Assay (HHA). These devices have been used for over 30 years in the medical field for detecting disease, fertility, drugs of abuse and respiratory disorders. Designed to rapidly detect the presence of specific substances in field-collected samples, HHA’s have proven to be an indispensable tool for saving countless lives while reducing the time it takes to acquire results. Unlike the ATP test which detects any and all living cells, regardless of what those cells are, UDT’s kits detect only specific species of Aspergillus, Penicillium and Stachybotrys such as Stachybotrys chlorohalonata, Stachybotrys microspora, Stachybotrys echinata and Stachybotrys chartarum, in addition to certain Aspergillus and Penicillium sub-species. Each kit is individually packaged and includes everything necessary to run the test. No additional collection kits, readers or electronics are required. The Mold detection kit is sold as the MDK-2. We purchase and distribute MDK-2 from Advnt Biotechnologies LLC under the agreement described above. During 2012, we sold a nominal number of MDK-2 units.


Universal Detection Technology has also situated itself to provide various counter-terrorism services. Such services include training courses for first responders, event security, threat evaluation & consulting, and DVDs aimed at providing information and training regarding combating terrorism and managing emergency situations. Through a reseller agreement with Detrick Lawrence Corporation and its division, the Emergency Film Group, we market and sell a series of DVD’s related to combating terrorism and handling emergency situations and first response. To date, we have sold only a nominal amount of these services and products and the resulting revenue for 2012 was insignificant.


MARKETING AND SALES


Our sales and marketing plan includes strategic partnership agreements and retention of our in-house staff and outside consultants. The Company has retained the services of consultants to market its products in the United States and internationally. In the United States, we plan to continue presenting our technologies at industry events and trade shows. We also retain domestic distributors and consultants to arrange meetings with and presentations to building owners and operators, government officials in charge of decisions for safety and security of government and private venues and buildings, homeland security officials, and security companies. In 2013 we continued to use the internet to market and promote Universal Detection Technology and its products and services to the public. This strategy includes creation of an interactive and informational presence through our website and use of various third parties to bring traffic to our website. We intend to do more internet marketing and search engine optimization activities in future periods.


We also plan to develop brand recognition for our Company and for our products through attendance at national and international defense related exhibitions, use of print and video promotional materials, and by granting interviews to national and international news media.


We currently sell and plan to sell our products through a combination of unsolicited telephone orders, electronically generated sales via our website and in follow up to customer meetings or tradeshows.


MANUFACTURING


Currently, we do not have any manufacturing capabilities. In the past we have used original equipment manufacturers to manufacture our products. In addition to our own brands we also market third party brands that are related to our field of business. We are not obligated to continue to work with any of our current suppliers. As such, we may choose to work with other suppliers in the future. Should any of our supply and distribution agreements be terminated, we believe we can source adequate replacement supply parties and products without causing any material disruption to our business.


EMPLOYEES


As of December 31, 2013, we had one employee. We also employ outside consultants from time to time to provide various services. None of our employees are represented by a labor union. We consider our employee relations to be good.


COMPETITION


We face intense competition from a number of companies that offer products in our targeted application areas. Our competitors may offer or be developing products superior to ours. Our competitors may be significantly better financed than us. There are various technological approaches available to our competitors and us that may be applicable to the detection of pathogens in the air or on surfaces, and the feasibility and effectiveness of these techniques has yet to be fully evaluated or demonstrated.



7




Several companies provide or are in the process of developing instruments for detection of bioterrorism agents. The biodetection kits we sell are small handheld assays that work based on sandwich immunoassay technology. We expect to encounter intense competition from a number of new development-stage companies that continue to enter the bioterrorism detection device market. Our competitors may succeed in developing or marketing technologies and products that are more effective or commercially attractive than our potential products or that render our technologies and potential products obsolete. As these companies develop their technologies, they may develop proprietary positions that prevent us from successfully commercializing our products.


There are many multinational and established manufacturers of radiation detection equipment. We will face intense competition from these manufacturers for marketing and selling our radiation detectors. Such competition will limit our ability to achieve market share and can affect our sales and revenues.


INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY


The Company does not own any intellectual property rights with respect to the products it markets and sells. As such, the Company may be at a competitive disadvantage with respect to protecting its ability to continue to market and sell any particular device, even if such a device is in high demand. In contrast, many of the Company's competitors develop proprietary technologies and devices which compete with the products marketed by and sold by the Company. As such, such competitors can control the marketing, sales and further development of their product offerings in a manner that the Company cannot. Because the Company is a re-seller of products developed by other parties, it cannot control its product offerings as well as its competitors may be able to.


In December 2011 we announced entering into an agreement with Honeywell India (a unit of Honeywell International) to develop a radiation detector which would display radiation data collected via Bluetooth to a smartphone. We named this product RadSmart and we expect to bring it to the market in 2013. In March 2012, we applied for a Federal Trademark for RadSmart with the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). On October 16, 2012 our trademark was registered under registration number 4,225,651 with the USPTO. The mark consists of standard characters without claim to any particular font, style, or color and it is for radiation detectors, in class 9 (U.S. CLS. 21, 23, 26, 36 AND 38).


GENERAL


The Company was formed on December 24, 1971 in the State of California under the name Pollution Research and Control Corporation. It has operated continuously since that date. In August, 2003 the Company changed its name to Universal Detection Technology.


On July 5, 2012 the Company completed a one-for-twenty-thousand (1:20,000) reverse stock split for stockholders of record as of March 13, 2012 (the “Reverse Stock Split”) which resulted in 919,219 shares outstanding as of that date. All share and per share amounts discussed in this Annual Report give effect to the Reverse Stock Split.


ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS


YOU SHOULD READ THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS TOGETHER WITH OUR CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND RELATED NOTES INCLUDED ELSEWHERE IN THIS ANNUAL REPORT. SOME OF THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR SET FORTH ELSEWHERE IN THIS ANNUAL REPORT, INCLUDING INFORMATION WITH RESPECT TO OUR PLANS AND STRATEGIES FOR OUR BUSINESS, INCLUDES FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT INVOLVE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES. YOU SHOULD REVIEW THE "RISK FACTORS" SECTION OF THIS REPORT FOR A DISCUSSION OF IMPORTANT FACTORS THAT COULD CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS TO DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THE RESULTS DESCRIBED IN OR IMPLIED BY THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS CONTAINED IN THIS REPORT. IF ANY OF THE FOLLOWING RISKS ACTUALLY OCCUR, OUR BUSINESS, FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS COULD SUFFER.


THERE IS DOUBT ABOUT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN.


Our financial statement for the year ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 includes an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern, due to our working capital deficit at December 31, 2013. We have experienced operating losses since the year end. We may be impeded our ability to raise additional capital on terms acceptable to us. If we are unable to obtain financing on terms acceptable to us, or at all, we will not be able to accomplish any or all of our initiatives and will be forced to consider steps that would protect our assets against our creditors. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, your entire investment in us could be lost.



8




WE ARE IN DEFAULT OF A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF OUR DEBT AND DO NOT HAVE ADEQUATE CASH TO FUND OUR WORKING CAPITAL NEEDS. OUR FAILURE TIMELY TO PAY OUR INDEBTEDNESS MAY REQUIRE US TO CONSIDER STEPS THAT WOULD PROTECT OUR ASSETS AGAINST OUR CREDITORS.


If we cannot raise additional capital, we will not be able to repay our debt or pursue our business strategies as scheduled, or at all, and we may cease operations. We have been unable to pay all of our creditors and certain other obligations in accordance with their terms, and as a result, at December 31, 2013 we are in default on a portion of our debt totaling approximately $443,500 excluding accumulated interest of approximately $815,500 In the aggregate, as of December 31, 2013, we have approximately $4.5. million in debt obligations, including interest, owing within the next 12 months. We cannot assure you that any of these note-holders will agree to extend payment of these debt obligations or ultimately agree to revise the terms of this debt to allow us to make scheduled payments over an extended period of time.


We have nominal cash on hand and short-term investments and we do not expect to generate material cash from operations within the next 12 months. We have attempted to raise additional capital through debt or equity financings and to date have had limited success. The downtrend in the financial markets has made it extremely difficult for us to raise additional capital. If we are unable to raise capital successfully, or reduce our debt through other means, we may be unable to continue operations.


THE COMPANY DOES NOT OWN ANY PROPRIETARY OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS IN THE PRODUCTS IT MARKETS AND SELLS


Other than the U.S. trademark the Company received on RadSmart branded product in October 2012, the Company does not own any intellectual property rights with respect to the products it markets and sells. The Company is a "reseller" of products available to it under supply and distribution agreements. As such, the Company may be at a competitive disadvantage with respect to protecting its ability to continue to market and sell any particular device, even if such device is in high demand. The Company cannot assure the availability of the products it sells or any improvements on such products. In addition, should such products become the subject of infringement claims by third parties, the Company may be unable to continue selling such products while such claims are unresolved. The Company would be forced to rely on the efforts of the owners of the products and underlying technologies to defend such suits should they arise. Such legal challenges, should they arise, would be detrimental to our operations. The Company believes it could source other suppliers of products should any of its suppliers become unable to sell product for any reason, however there can be no assurance that such replacement suppliers can be found timely or upon terms acceptable to the Company, if at all.


WE HAVE NO ABILITY TO FINANCE SIGNFICANT ORDERS OF OUR PRODUCTS OR TO PREPAY FOR ORDERS THAT MAY REQUIRE SUCH PAYMENT; WE MAY BE UNABLE TO TIMELY FULFILL ORDERS, IF AT ALL


The Company is a "reseller" of products available to it under supply and distribution agreements.

When we obtain products for resale to our customers, we must be able to finance the purchase of such products. When the quantities and/or unit prices are low or nominal, we can finance that acquisition through existing cash, or require pre-payment from our customers, or request that the supply invoices be payable at a point in the future subsequent to the collection of the purchase price from our customers. The products we offer vary in price from several hundred dollars per unit to several thousand dollars per unit. From time to time, our management has made loans to the Company the proceeds of which are used for general operations including the acquisition of limited amount of product for demonstration and resale. Currently, we believe that none of our accounts receivable would be attractive to commercial finance lenders or factors as a means to finance product acquisition. Should we be successful in generating significant purchase requests for the products we market and sell, we may be unable to process those orders due to a lack of financing opportunities and a lack of cash on hand. While we may attempt to structure such orders, should they arise, in a way that provides for payment in advance from customers, or payment of invoices after customer collection, or upon a factoring or other finance arrangement, there can be no assurance that we can structure the financing terms in a manner that supports product acquisition in large quantities, if at all. In addition, we have no control over how quickly our suppliers will make product available to us. Even assuming we can finance orders of all sizes, we must rely upon our suppliers to provide product and ship product in a timely manner. However, we cannot control the timing and shipment of the products that we resell. If we are able to generate purchase orders, we may be unable to fulfill them timely and upon financing terms acceptable to us or our suppliers and customers, which would be detrimental to our operations.

WE HAVE A HISTORY OF LOSSES AND WE DO NOT ANTICIPATE THAT WE WILL BE PROFITABLE IN FISCAL 2012.


We do not anticipate generating significant sales. We have not been profitable in the past years and had an accumulated deficit of approximately $50.8 million at December 31, 2013. We have had little revenues from sales of our products since the beginning of fiscal 2002, the commencement of our entry in the counter terrorism market. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, we had losses of $416,701 and $1,582,288, respectively. During fiscal 2013, we had gross revenues of $87,927. Achieving profitability depends upon numerous factors, including our ability to develop, market, and sell commercially accepted products timely and cost-efficiently. We do not anticipate that we will be profitable in the immediate or near future.


IF WE OBTAIN FINANCING, EXISTING SHAREHOLDER INTERESTS MAY BE DILUTED.


If we raise additional funds by issuing equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of our shareholders will be diluted. In addition, any convertible securities issued may not contain a minimum conversion price, which may make it more difficult for us to raise financing and may cause the market price of our common stock to decline because of the indeterminable overhang that is created by the discount to market conversion feature. In addition, any new securities could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our common stock. Furthermore, we cannot assure you that additional financing will be available when and to the extent we require or that, if available, it will be on acceptable terms.


MANAGEMENT HAS LIMITED EXPERIENCE IN SALES AND DISTRIBUTION. WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO MARKET AND DISTRIBUTE PRODUCTS EFFECTIVELY, WHICH COULD HARM OUR FUTURE PROSPECTS.


If we are unable to establish a successful sales, marketing, and distribution operation, we will not be able to generate sufficient revenue in order to maintain operations. We have limited experience in marketing or distributing new products. We have limited experience in developing, training, or managing a sales force. If we choose to establish a direct sales force, we will incur substantial additional expense. We may not be able to build a sales force on a cost effective basis or at all. Any direct or internet marketing and sales efforts may prove to be unsuccessful. In addition, our marketing and sales efforts may be unable to compete with the extensive and well-funded marketing and sales operations of some of our competitors. We also may be unable to engage qualified distributors. Even if engaged, they may fail to satisfy financial or contractual obligations to us, or adequately market our products.


OUR PRODUCTS MAY NOT BE COMMERCIALLY ACCEPTED WHICH WILL ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR REVENUES AND PROFITABILITY.


Our ability to enter into the CBRN detection device market, establish brand recognition and compete effectively depends upon many factors, including broad commercial acceptance of our products. If our products are not commercially accepted, we will not recognize meaningful revenue and may not continue to operate. The success of our products will depend in large part on the breadth of information these products capture and the timeliness of delivery of that information. The commercial success of our products also depends upon the quality and acceptance of other competing products, general economic and political conditions and other factors, all of which can change and cannot be predicted with certainty. We cannot assure you that our new products will achieve market acceptance or will generate significant revenue.


EXISTING AND DEVELOPING TECHNOLOGIES MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE DEMAND FOR OUR PRODUCTS.


Our industry is subject to rapid and substantial technological change. Developments by others may render our technologies and planned products noncompetitive or obsolete, or we may be unable to keep pace with technological developments or other market factors. Competition from other companies, universities, governmental research organizations and others diversifying into our field is intense and is expected to increase.



10




SHARES ISSUED UPON THE EXERCISE OF OUR OUTSTANDING OPTIONS AND WARRANTS, OR UPON THE CONVERSION OF PROMISSORY NOTES, MAY DILUTE YOUR STOCK HOLDINGS AND ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR STOCK PRICE.


If exercised, our outstanding options and warrants will cause immediate and substantial dilution to our stockholders. We have issued options and warrants to acquire our common stock to our employees, consultants, and investors at various prices, some of which are or may in the future be below the market price of our stock. As of December 31, 2013, we had outstanding options and warrants to purchase a total of 120,002 shares of common stock. Of these options and warrants, all have exercise prices at or above the recent market price of $0.24 per share (as of April 15, 2013) and none have exercise prices at or below this price. In addition, because of our financial condition and substantial indebtedness and our need to raise capital, from time to time we have converted outstanding debt obligations into common stock. During 2012, we converted debt at conversion prices at $4 per share. Our conversion of outstanding debt obligations to common stock, as well as the exercise of outstanding options and warrants to purchase common stock, which the Board of Directors may authorize and undertake from time to time, may dilute the stockholdings of current shareholders.


THE LOSS OF OUR PRESIDENT AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER WOULD DISRUPT OUR BUSINESS.


Our success depends in substantial part upon the services of Jacques Tizabi, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors. The loss of or the failure to retain the services of Mr. Tizabi would adversely affect the development of our business and our ability to realize profitable operations. We do not maintain key-man life insurance on Mr. Tizabi and have no present plans to obtain this insurance.


WE MAY BE SUED BY THIRD PARTIES WHO CLAIM THE PRODUCTS WE SELL INFRINGE ON THEIR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS. DEFENDING AN INFRINGEMENT LAWSUIT IS COSTLY AND WE MAY NOT HAVE ADEQUATE RESOURCES TO DEFEND OURSELVES.


We may be exposed to future litigation by third parties based on claims that the products we sell infringe on the intellectual property rights of others or that we have misappropriated the trade secrets of others. This may be true even if we do not own the technologies embedded in the products we sell. This risk is compounded by the fact that the validity and breadth of claims covered in technology patents in general and the breadth and scope of trade secret protection involves complex legal and factual questions for which important legal principles are unresolved. Any litigation or claims against us, whether or not valid, could result in substantial costs, could place a significant strain on our financial and managerial resources, and could harm our reputation.


CURRENCY RISK


Some of our sales come from sales in Japan and that leaves us open to the risk associated with the valuation of the Japanese Yen. If the Japanese Yen becomes less valuable our products will be relatively more expensive and can therefore lose their competitive advantage. Our margins as a reseller are very thin and a currency devaluation in Japan can diminish our ability to compete or sell in that market.


HEAVY RELIANCE ON THE JAPANESE MARKET


Our sales are predominantly in Japan and have peaked since the March 11, 2011 disaster in Fukushima that resulted in damage to nuclear reactors and release of radioactive material in the ground and in the atmosphere. There is no assurance that the demand for radiation detection equipment will remain high in Japan and if such demand fades, we will recognize lower revenues.


RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT


We are spending resources on research and development related to a smartphone compatible radiation detector, RadSmart. Development of new products is inherently risky and there is no assurance that RadSmart will perform as well as it is designed to perform. Furthermore, the market for RadSmart might shrink in size or cease to exist by the time the product is ready and available for purchase. The market might not accept RadSmart as a reliable detection device and as such, our sales of RadSmart might be zero or very limited.


WE HAVE NOT PAID ANY CASH DIVIDENDS AND NO CASH DIVIDENDS WILL BE PAID IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.


We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future, and we cannot assure an investor that funds will be legally available to pay a dividend or that even if the funds are legally available, that a dividend will be paid.



11




THE APPLICATION OF THE “PENNY STOCK” RULES COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK AND INCREASE YOUR TRANSACTION COSTS TO SELL THOSE STOCK.


As long as the trading price of our common stock is below $5 per share, the open-market trading of our common stock will be subject to the “penny stock” rules. The “penny stock” rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 together with their spouse). For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of securities and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction before the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the broker-dealer must deliver, before the transaction, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information on the limited market in penny stocks. These additional burdens imposed on broker-dealers may restrict the ability or decrease the willingness of broker-dealers to sell our common stock, and may result in decreased liquidity for our common stock and increased transaction costs for sales and purchases of our common stock as compared to other securities.


A DTC “CHILL” ON ELECTRONIC CLEARING OF TRADES IN OUR COMMON STOCK MAY AFFECT THE LIQUIDITY OF OUR STOCK AND OUR ABILITY TO RAISE CAPITAL.


In September 2011, The Depositary Trust Company (DTCC) placed a "chill" on the electronic clearing of trades in our shares which led to some firms being unwilling to accept certificates of our stock and also some will not accept trades in our shares altogether. The Company has sought advice from third parties on removal of the DTC chill. On February 1, 2013 the DTCC lifted the deposit chill and resumed accepting deposits of our stock and book-entry transfer services. A DTC chill affects the liquidity in our shares which, if reinstated, may make it difficult to purchase or sell shares.


OUR STOCK PRICE IS VOLATILE.


The trading price of our common stock fluctuates widely and in the future may be subject to similar fluctuations in response to quarter-to-quarter variations in our operating results, announcements of technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors, general conditions in the terrorism detection device industry in which we compete and other events or factors. In addition, in recent years, broad stock market indices, in general, and the securities of technology companies, in particular, have experienced substantial price fluctuations. These broad market fluctuations also may adversely affect the future trading price of our common stock.


OUR STOCK HISTORICALLY FLUCTUATES WIDELY IN TRADING VOLUME AND PRICE. THEREFORE, SHAREHOLDERS MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SELL THEIR SHARES FREELY OR AT PRICES AND AT TIMES THAT THEY DESIRE TO SELL SHARES.


The volume of trading in our common stock historically has fluctuated and a limited market presently exists for the shares. We have no analyst coverage of our securities. The lack of analyst reports about our stock may make it difficult for potential investors to make decisions about whether to purchase our stock and may make it less likely that investors will purchase our stock. Our stock trades in a wide fluctuation of volume that we cannot predict or control. We cannot assure you that our trading volume will increase, or that our historically light trading volume or any trading volume whatsoever will be sustained in the future. Therefore, we cannot assure you that our shareholders will be able to sell their shares of our common stock at the time or at the price that they desire, or at all.


POTENTIAL ANTI-TAKEOVER TACTICS AND RIGHTS AND PREFERENCES GRANTED THROUGH THE ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED STOCK RIGHTS MAY BE DETRIMENTAL TO COMMON SHAREHOLDERS.


We are authorized to issue up to 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The issuance of preferred stock does not require approval by the shareholders of our common stock. Our Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, has the power to issue preferred stock in one or more series and establish the dividend rates and preferences, liquidation preferences, voting rights, redemption and conversion terms and conditions and any other relative rights and preferences with respect to any series of preferred stock. Holders of preferred stock may have the right to receive dividends, certain preferences in liquidation and conversion and other rights, any of which rights and preferences may operate to the detriment of the shareholders of our common stock. Further, the issuance of any preferred stock having rights superior to those of our common stock may result in a decrease in the market price of the common stock and, additionally, could be used by our Board of Directors as an anti-takeover measure or device to prevent a change in our control.



12




IF WE FAIL TO MAINTAIN AN EFFECTIVE SYSTEM OF INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ACCURATELY REPORT OUR FINANCIAL RESULTS. AS A RESULT, CURRENT AND POTENTIAL SHAREHOLDERS COULD LOSE CONFIDENCE IN OUR FINANCIAL REPORTING, WHICH WOULD HARM OUR BUSINESS AND THE TRADING PRICE OF OUR STOCK.


Our management has determined that as of December 31, 2013, we did not maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting based on criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework as a result of identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as described later in this Report in Part II – Item 9A – Controls and Procedures. 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 the company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. If the result of our remediation of the identified material weaknesses described in this Report are not successful, or if additional material weaknesses are identified in our internal control over financial reporting, our management will be unable to report favorably as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and/or our disclosure controls and procedures, and we could be required to further implement expensive and time-consuming remedial measures and potentially lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports which could have an adverse effect on our stock price and potentially subject us to litigation.


OUR ISSUANCE OF ADDITIONAL COMMON STOCK, OR OPTIONS TO PURCHASE OUR STOCK, WOULD DILUTE YOUR PROPORTIONATE OWNERSHIP AND VOTING RIGHTS.


We are entitled under our articles of incorporation to issue up to 20,020,000,000 shares of capital stock which includes 20,000,000,000 shares of common stock and 20,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock. Our Preferred Stock may be designated in a senior position to our common stock. After giving effect to our July 2012 Reverse Stock Split, we are authorized to issue up to 20,000,000,000 shares of common stock and 20,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock as of May 1, 2013. Our board of directors may generally issue stock, or options or warrants to purchase those shares, without further approval by our stockholders based upon such factors as our board of directors may deem relevant at that time. It is likely that we will be required to issue a large amount of additional securities to raise capital to further our development or convert outstanding indebtedness to equity. It is also likely that we will be required to issue a large amount of additional securities to directors, officers, employees and consultants as compensatory grants in connection with their services, both in the form of stand-alone grants or under our stock plans. We cannot give you any assurance that we will not issue additional common stock, or options or warrants to purchase those shares, under circumstances we may deem appropriate at the time.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements provided in this annual report on Form 10-K. Certain statements contained herein may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, as discussed more fully herein.


The forward-looking information set forth in this annual report is as of the date of this filing, and we undertake no duty to update this information. More information about potential factors that could affect our business and financial results is included in the section of this annual report entitled "Risk Factors."


OVERVIEW


We are engaged in the marketing and resale of detection devices for chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) threats. Through agreements with various third parties we seek to supply bioterrorism detection kits capable of detecting anthrax, ricin, botulinum, plague, and SEBs, mold detection kits, chemical detection equipment, radiation detection systems, and counter-terrorism training references.


We have entered into supply and distribution agreements with various parties enabling us to supply a host of products and services for detection of hazardous materials and training references. By combining our in-house experience and knowledge and outside expertise offered by various consultants and third parties, we have added threat evaluation and consulting services, and training courses to our services. We sell and market security and counter-terrorism products including bioterrorism detection kits, chemical detectors, radiation detection systems, and training references. Some of the products and services we offer have not been sold to date and there is no guarantee that any of them will be demanded and sold in the market in the future. We plan to continue expanding our product base and intend to sell products to more users inside and outside the U.S. Our strategy is to generate sales by enhancing our web presence and marketing the Company as a supplier of complete CBRN detection equipment. We plan to attend various industry trade shows and to offer products in certain training scenarios so that first responders can become more familiar with our products. Our target customer markets primarily consist of first responders with some emphasis on the bioterror and military defense market. Our geographical customer focus is on the U.S., Europe, and Asia. There is no guarantee that we will succeed in implementing this strategy or if implemented, that this strategy will be successful.

Subsequent to the March 11, 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan, we saw an increased demand in our radiation detection equipment. In response we formed new alliances with manufacturers of dosimeters and survey meters to supply the Japanese market. We witnessed increased sales of these systems and have shipped several units to Japanese customers since the disaster.


In late 2011 we started research and development on a new line of radiation detectors that can monitor the environment and surfaces for radiation and communicate the results with a smartphone enabling the user to save and share the test results instantaneously. In December 2011 we announced entering into an agreement with Honeywell India (a unit of Honeywell International) to develop a radiation detector which would display radiation data collected via Bluetooth to a smartphone. The product is designed to detect radiation levels on surfaces and food and to automatically send the collected data to a smartphone. According to the agreement with Honeywell, any and all intellectual property including any patents which may be filed will be the sole property of Universal Detection Technology.


We named this product RadSmart and while we expected to bring it to the market in 2012, technical and funding problems have postponed the release. We now anticipate the market release of RadSmart to be in 2013. In March 2012, we applied for a Federal Trademark for RadSmart with the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). On October 16, 2012 our trademark was registered under registration number 4,225,651 with the USPTO. The mark consists of standard characters without claim to any particular font, style, or color and it is for radiation detectors, in class 9 (U.S. CLS. 21, 23, 26, 36 AND 38).


RadSmart utilizes a Hamamatsu Cesium Iodide (CsI) scintillator for the detection of Gamma rays. Cs(I) scintillators are the most sensitive detection mechanisms for detecting Gamma radiation. The instrument will be sensitive enough to measure normal radiation levels to 100 to 200 times that intensity. With the planned detection range of 0.001 to 9.999 uSv/h the device is expected to be capable of detecting traces of radiation on surfaces, clothing and in particular food contamination, which has become an increasing concern globally after the Fukushima disaster in Japan.


Universal Detection Technology has also situated itself to provide various counter-terrorism services. Such services include training courses for first responders, event security, threat evaluation & consulting, and DVDs aimed at providing information and training regarding combating terrorism and managing emergency situations. To date, we have sold only a nominal amount of these services and products and the resulting revenue for 2012 was insignificant.


Our business operations are more fully described under "Description Business" in Item 1 of Part I of this Report.


Results of Operations


The following discussion is included to describe our consolidated financial position and results of operations. The unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contain detailed information that should be referred to in conjunction with this discussion.


Revenue – Total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013 was 87,927 as compared to $75,470 for the prior fiscal year, an increase of $12,457. The increase derived from an increased demand for radiation detectors in Japan after the nuclear disaster in Fukushima.


Operating Expenses –Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $285,529. Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $1,378,352 representing a substantial decrease of $1,092,823. The decrease is primarily attributable to an extensive reduction if our overall operation.


Other expenses. Other expenses amounted to $211,747 for the year ended December 31, 2013 as compared to $219,339 for the year ended December 31, 2012. The change is principally related to the reduction in loss recognized on the settlement of shares issued for debt and the increase in interest expense for accrued interest on judgments and other outstanding debt.


Net loss. Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $416,701, as compared to a net loss of $1,582,288 for the same period in the prior fiscal year, representing a decreased loss of $1,165,587. The primary reason for this is a decrease is a reduction in other income (expense) and revenues partially offset by an increase in operating expenses all as discussed above.



16




PLAN OF OPERATION


We supply chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear (CBRN), and mold detection equipment. We plan to continue expanding our product base and to sell our products to more users inside and outside the U.S. There is no guarantee that we will succeed in implementing this strategy or if implemented, that this strategy will be successful.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


Liquidity is a measure of a company’s ability to meet potential cash requirements. We had current assets at December 31, 2013 of $65,181, which included cash of $5,195 and inventory of $58,887. Our working capital deficit at December 31, 2013 was $5,086,347.


Cash Requirements


We expect to incur losses in the development of our business and will require:


·

administrative expenses, including salaries of officers and other employees we plan to hire;

·

repayment of debt;

·

sales and marketing;

·

product testing or manufacturing; and

·

expenses of professionals, including accountants and attorneys.


These requirements cast substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from business operations when they come due.


Management continues to take steps to address the Company's liquidity needs. Management continues to seek extensions with respect to debt past due. Management also may seek additional extensions with respect to these notes and the Company's debt as it becomes due. In addition, management may continue to convert some portion of the principal amount and interest on our debt into shares of common stock. During 2013, the Company issued 277,552 shares of its common stock for an aggregate value of $4141,071 to satisfy outstanding debt and accrued interest.


Historically, we have financed operations through private debt and equity financings. In recent years, financial institutions have been unwilling to lend to us and the cost of obtaining working capital from investors has been expensive. We principally expect to raise funds through the sale of equity or debt securities. During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company received gross proceeds of approximately $0.0 million and $0.8 million, respectively, from the sale of equity and debt securities. The Company actively continues to pursue additional equity or debt financings, but cannot provide any assurance that it will be successful. If we are unable to pay our debt as it becomes due and are unable to obtain financing on terms acceptable to us, or at all, we will not be able to accomplish any or all of our initiatives and will be forced to consider steps that would protect our assets against our creditors.


OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS


We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources, and that would be considered material to investors.


CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES


The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions. While there are a number of significant accounting policies affecting our financial statements; we believe the following critical accounting policies involve the most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and judgments:

USE OF ESTIMATES


These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and, accordingly, require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.


GOING CONCERN


The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, and do not reflect any adjustments related to the uncertainty surrounding our recurring losses or accumulated deficit.


REVENUE RECOGNITION


Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as unearned revenue. Service revenue is recognized when services are performed and amounts are due.


FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS


Our short-term financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable and other liabilities, consist primarily of instruments without extended maturities, the fair value of which, based on management’s estimates, reasonably approximate their book value. The fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments is determined using option pricing models.


STOCK BASED COMPENSATION TO OTHER THAN EMPLOYEES


Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably determinable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earlier of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement.


ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK


Not applicable for Smaller Reporting Companies.

UNIVERSAL DETECTION TECHNOLOGY. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)


NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS


Universal Detection Technology, a California corporation, primarily designs, manufactures and markets air pollution monitoring instruments. Beginning in 2002, the Company has focused its research and development efforts in developing a real time biological weapon detection device. To accelerate development of its initial biological weapon detection device, the Company has developed and is implementing a collaborative partnering strategy. Under this strategy, the Company identifies and partners with researchers and developers. The Company has expanded its services to include security related consulting, event security and counterterrorism training.


The Company is a reseller of a range of products, which include rapid anthrax detection test kits, training courses for first responders, event security, threat evaluation and consulting, radiation detection systems, anti-microbial products, and DVDs aimed at providing information and training regarding combating terrorism and managing emergency situations.


NOTE 2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Accounting Principles


In the opinion of management, the accompanying balance sheets and related interim statements of income, and cash flows 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 (“U.S. GAAP”). Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with information included in the Company’s 2012 Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.


Principles of Consolidation


The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of Universal Detection Technology and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Nutek, Inc. (“Nutek”) and Logan Medical Devices, Inc. (“Logan”). The two subsidiaries are currently inactive. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.


Use of Estimates


The preparation of consolidated financial statements is in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period balances to conform to the current year presentation.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In July 2012, the FASB issued amended standards to simplify how entities test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment which improve consistency in impairment testing requirements among long-lived asset categories. These amended standards permit an assessment of qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying value. For assets in which this assessment concludes it is more likely than not that the fair value is more than its carrying value, these amended standards eliminate the requirement to perform quantitative impairment testing as outlined in the previously issued standards. These amended standards are effective for us beginning in the fourth quarter of 2012; however, early adoption is permitted. We do not expect these new standards to significantly impact our consolidated condensed financial statements.



F-7




UNIVERSAL DETECTION TECHNOLOGY. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)


In September 2011, the FASB issued guidance on testing goodwill for impairment. The new guidance provides an entity the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If an entity determines that this is the case, it is required to perform the currently prescribed two-step goodwill impairment test to identify potential goodwill impairment and measure the amount of goodwill impairment loss to be recognized for that reporting unit (if any). If an entity determines that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. The new guidance will be effective for us beginning July 1, 2012. We do not expect the adoption will have a significant impact on our consolidated condensed financial statements.


In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance on presentation of comprehensive income. The new guidance eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity. Instead, an entity will be required to present either a continuous statement of net income and other comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The new guidance will be effective for us beginning July 1, 2012 and will have financial statement presentation changes only. We do not expect the adoption will have a significant impact on our consolidated condensed financial statements.


NOTE 3. GOING CONCERN


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $50,722,127 as of December 31, 2013, including a net loss of $416,071 during the year ended December 31, 2013.


These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to develop additional sources of capital and ultimately achieve profitable operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Company's financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.


Management has taken certain steps to provide the Company with necessary capital to continue its operations. These steps include: 1) actively seeking additional funding in the form of unsecured indebtedness and 2) seeking to increase revenues from product sales.


NOTE 4. NOTES PAYABLE


During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company borrowed an aggregate of $178,883 from third parties under various promissory note agreements. The promissory notes all bear interest at 12.0% per annum, and are due on or before February 21, 2015. No principal or interest payments have been made on these notes. As of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company had total notes payable amounting to $802,704 and $753,139 respectively, net of loan fees of $154,576 and $104,298 respectively.


The interest expense on these notes payable for the year ended December 31, 2013 and the year ended December 31, 2012 amounted to $100,008 and $464,694, respectively.


The following provides principal terms of our outstanding debt as of December 31, 2013:


·

One loan from three family members, each of whom is an unaffiliated party, evidenced by four promissory notes in the aggregate principal amounts of $100,000, $50,000, $50,000, and $100,000, each due September 24, 2001 with interest rates ranging from 11% to 12%.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Under the supervision and with the participation of our Management, including our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), who is also our acting Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of a date as of the end of the reporting period covered by the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, December 31, 2012. For purposes of this section, the term disclosure controls and procedures means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act and are not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING


Management’s Report on Internal Control 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 Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company's principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the Company's 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that:


·

Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;

·

Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and

·

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


Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.



19




As of December 31, 2013 Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on that evaluation, they concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, such internal controls over financial reporting were not effective to control deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal controls over financial reporting that adversely affect our internal controls and that may be considered to be a material weakness. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the registrant's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.


The matters involving internal controls over financial reporting that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board included the lack of a fully functioning audit committee resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls over financial reporting. In addition, our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer identified a lack of sufficient internal accounting and book keeping staff and accountability. Because of the Company's severe cash constraints, there are no employees or contractors dedicated solely to the functions of book keeping or accounting. In addition, the Company's current personnel lack sufficient skills, training and experience in the review process in order to ensure the complete and proper application of generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, the Company can only afford to retain its outside accountants to review the books and records of the Company on a quarterly basis and in connection with the annual audit of financial statements, whereas more timely and increased periodic reviews would be beneficial to the Company's internal controls over financial reporting pending development of an internal accounting staff. These material weaknesses were identified by our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer in connection with the audit of our financial statements as of December 31, 2012.


In addition, Management has identified the following internal control deficiencies:


·

We did not have formal policies governing accounting transactions and financial reporting processes;

·

We did not have a consistent process involving the entry of transactions into the Company's financial recordation system by dedicated personnel;

·

We did not perform adequate oversight by management of certain accounting functions of our employees and maintained inadequate documentation of management review and approval of accounting transactions and financial reporting processes.


Management is in the process of developing and implementing remediation plans to address its material weaknesses. Management has identified specific remedial actions to address the material weaknesses described above which include:


·

Augment existing Company resources with additional consultants or employees to improve the recording of accounting transactions. The Company plans to hire additional personnel once the Company has achieved further commercialization of its products and is generating more revenue, or has raised significant additional working capital;


·

Improve oversight by management by creating a system of periodic and monthly reviews of financial transactions and the recordation of transactions into the Company's financial recordation system;


·

Adopt an audit committee charter delineating the committee’s duties with respect to the review and oversight of the Company's financial statements, auditors and audit process; and


·

Retain the services of the Company's outside accountants for periodic and intermittent review of the Company's financial data outside of the quarterly and annual procedures for the preparation of quarterly and annual reports and financial statements, upon the Company obtaining capital or generating additional revenue.


Until such time as we have implemented these remediation plans, there are no assurances that the material weaknesses will not result in errors in our financial statements which could lead to a restatement of those financial statements.


Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting


There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

In May 2005 and in October 2005, respectively the NASD notified Mr. Tizabi that he was suspended and subsequently permanently barred from registering with a broker-dealer.


In 2004, our CEO, Mr. Jacques Tizabi, was a registered representative and principal in an NASD registered broker dealer. In November 2004, Mr. Tizabi decided to leave the brokerage business at which time the broker-dealer filed a Form U-5, Uniform Termination Notice for Securities Industry Registration. Contemporaneously therewith, the NASD was conducting its routine examination of the broker-dealer pursuant to which Mr. Tizabi cooperated by responding to the NASD requests for information. Mr. Tizabi and the broker-dealer were never accused of any wrongdoing and after terminating his relationship with the broker-dealer and leaving the brokerage industry, Mr. Tizabi notified the NASD that he no longer would respond to the NASD in a representative capacity of the broker-dealer. Mr. Tizabi was made aware that his actions could be a violation of Rule 8210 and result in a suspension or bar from further registering with a broker dealer. Mr. Tizabi was suspended and barred because he failed to continue to respond to the NASD’s investigation; not because of any substantive securities violation.

We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics which is designed to set the standards of business conduct and ethics and help directors and employees resolve ethical issues.

The Code covers topics including, but not limited to, conflicts of interest, confidentiality of information, fair dealing with customers, supplies and competitors, and compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations.

SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE


Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of our common stock, to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership, and reports of changes in ownership, of our common stock and other equity securities of ours. Executive officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports that they file. To our knowledge, based solely on our review of copies of the Section 16(a) reports filed for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, we believe our executive officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders of our common stock complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to them.

Under Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by that person (and only that person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual ownership with respect to the number of shares of our common stock actually outstanding at April 15, 2013. As of May 1, 2013, we had 1,502,284 common shares, no par value, outstanding.
