NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statement presentation and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 (the “2014 Annual Report”), filed with the Commission on April 15, 2015. It is management’s opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statements presentation.

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Trunity Holdings, Inc. (“Trunity” or the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiary Trunity, Inc. (“Trunity, Inc.” or the “Company”), as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. All intercompany accounts have been eliminated in the consolidation. Certain amounts reported in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

 

The Company is a “C” Corporation organized under the laws of Delaware with principal offices located in Davie, Florida. The Company was formed on July 28, 2009 to develop a cloud-based platform that focuses on collaborative knowledge management, publishing and education delivery platform – the Trunity eLearning Platform (the “Platform”) – which provides an end-to-end solution for the rapidly growing digital textbook, eLearning and enterprise training marketplaces.

 

The financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred net losses, working capital deficiencies, and negative operating cash flows since its inception. To the extent the Company continues to experience working capital deficiencies and negative cash flows in the future, it will continue to require additional capital to fund operations. The Company has historically obtained additional capital investments under various debt and Common Stock issuances. Although management continues to pursue its financing plans, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in generating sufficient revenues to provide positive cash flow or that financing at acceptable terms, if at all will be available. In addition, the Company has defaulted on some of its lease and debt obligations as of June 30, 2015. Although the Company is currently in negotiations related to these defaults, there is no assurance that any negotiations will be successful in reducing the Company’s liabilities under default. Based on these factors, the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts or classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

There was no material changes during the quarter ended June 30, 2015 in the Company’s significant accounting policies to those previously disclosed in the 2014 Annual Report.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a new pronouncement that requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. The pronouncement becomes effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company believes adoption of the pronouncement will not have a significant impact on the financial statements or its results of operations.

In 2015, the Company borrowed from accredited investors and related parties (the “Debenture Holders”) $319,000 ($130,000 was provided by an officer and board member of the Company) pursuant to an Unsecured Redeemable Debenture Series F (the “Series F Debentures”) that required payment of interest at the end of the three-month Debenture term in the amount of 10% of the principal amount. The holders of the Series F Debentures also received warrants to acquire 319,000 shares of common stock for an exercise price of $0.15 per share, exercisable over three years. In addition, the Company will issue the Debenture Holders warrants (the “2015 Warrant”) to purchase 319,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price per 2015 Warrant Share to be determined. The Company incurred no commission costs in connection with these transactions. The Series F Debentures are convertible into common stock at $.03 per share as to principal plus accrued interest upon an event of default.

 

The Company allocated the face value of the Series F Debentures to the warrants and the debentures based on their relative fair values, allocated $2,427 to the warrants, and determined that there were aggregate beneficial conversion features of $197,573. The fair value of the warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton (“BSM”) valuation model and the following assumptions: volatility – 43.95% to 49.60%, risk free rate – 0.83% to 1.13 %, dividend rate – 0.00%. The amount allocated to the warrants and beneficial conversion features totaling $200,000 was recorded as a discount against the Series F Debentures, with offsetting entry to additional paid-in capital. The discounts are being amortized into interest expense over the term of the Series F Debentures.

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded amortization of the discount of $149,736 and $233,891, respectively and interest expense of $26,283 and $28,387, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company defaulted on some of the Series F debentures and as a result, reclassed $20,000 of accrued interest as of the date of maturity to the face amount of the debenture and then began accruing daily interest on the new face amount of $339,000 at a default rate of 18% per annum. As of June 30, 2015, the carrying value of the Series F Debentures was $301,685, net of unamortized discounts of $37,315.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2015, $212,000 of the Series F Debentures matured without payment creating an event of default. Consequently, aggregate principal amount of these debentures plus accrued interest is convertible into Common Stock at .03 per share. As of June 30, 2015, the Debentures were convertible into an aggregate of 7,066,667 shares. At this time, the Company is in discussion with the Debenture Holders and no notices of conversion of these debentures have been received as of August 14, 2015.

 

November and December 2014 Unsecured Redeemable Debentures (Series E)

 

In October and November 2014, the Company borrowed from accredited investors and a related party (the “Debenture Holders”) $145,000 pursuant to an Unsecured Redeemable Debenture Series E (the “Series E Debentures”) that required payment of interest at the end of the six-month Debenture term in the amount of 15% of the principal amount. The holders of the Series E Debentures also received warrants to acquire 145,000 shares of common stock for an exercise price of $0.15 per share, exercisable over four years equal. In addition, the Company will issue the Debenture Holders warrants (the “2015 Warrant”) to purchase 145,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price per 2015 Warrant Share to be determined. The Company incurred no commission costs in connection with these transactions. The Series E Debentures are convertible into common stock at $.03 per share as to principal plus accrued interest upon an event of default.

The fair value of the warrants was determined using the BSM valuation model and the following assumptions: volatility – 43.63% to 44.28%, risk free rate – 1.60% to 1.69% %, dividend rate – 0.00%. The amount allocated to the warrants and beneficial conversion features totaling $271,877 was recorded as a discount against the Series D Debentures, with offsetting entry to additional paid-in capital. A portion of the discount resulting in $237,227 was fully expensed upon execution of the new debentures as debt extinguishment costs and the remaining amount of $34,650 is being amortized into interest expense over the term of the Series D Debentures.

The Company recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $212,261, primarily related to fair value of the warrants in relation to the debt (relative fair value) on the debt exchange transaction. The Company has defaulted on its obligation to pay the remaining principal amount of a debenture due October and November 2014. The total amount due on this debenture, including interest, is $188,257 and is currently accruing interest at a default rate of 12% per annum. The Company has negotiated restructured terms with the majority of the debenture holders and is attempting to complete the formal restructuring of this debt obligation.

November 2014 Convertible Debenture with Peak One Opportunity Fund, L.P.

 

In November 2014, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Peak One Opportunity Fund, L.P. (“Peak”) pursuant to which the Company sold to Peak for $112,500 a Convertible Debenture (the “Peak Debenture”) in the principal amount of $125,000 (the “Principal Amount”) due on November 6, 2017 (the “Maturity Date”). Pursuant to the Peak Debenture, the Company agreed to pay interest on the Principal Amount outstanding from time to time in arrears (i) upon conversion or (ii) on the Maturity Date, at the rate of 5% per annum. The Company has the option to redeem the Peak Debenture prior to the Maturity Date at any time or from time to time by paying the Principal Amount plus accrued interest and a redemption premium of 20% of principal if the redemption is between 91-180 days after issuance and 40% of principal after 180 days. Beginning 91 days after the issue date, Peak may convert the principal and accrued interest (the “Conversion Amount”) into shares of common stock at a conversion price for each share of common stock (the “Conversion Price”) equal to 65% of the lowest closing bid price (as reported by Bloomberg LP) of common stock for the 20 trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion of the Peak Debenture (subject to equitable adjustments resulting from any stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations or similar events).

 

The Company paid issuance costs of $10,000 and issued 137,500 shares of restricted common ctock to cover the expenses incurred and analysis performed by Peak in connection with the transaction. The fair value of the 137,500 shares of restricted stock of $24,750, and $10,000 of issuance costs added to the principal, were recorded as deferred issuance costs to be amortized into interest expense over the term of the Peak Debenture.

 

The Peak Debenture is convertible into a variable number of shares based upon a fixed dollar amount and therefore treated as stock settled debt in accordance with ASC 480. On the date of issuance, the Company recorded the fair value of the financial instrument of $66,423 as a stock settled debt obligation along with debt discount of $12,500 to be amortized into interest expense through the maturity date.

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recognized $21,418 and $27,905, respectively of amortization of the discounts, $9,429 and $12,287, respectively of amortization of deferred financing fees, and recorded interest expense of $1,558 and $3,099, respectively.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2015, Peak converted $30,000 of principal into 1,373,625 shares of common stock. Upon conversion the Company recorded the fair value of the stock settled debt on the dates of conversion, totaling $45,816, to additional paid in capital. The deferred financing costs were accelerated to interest expense through the date of conversion, which is included in the $21,418 noted above. The Company adjusted the remaining stock settled debt obligation to fair value as of June 30, 2015, totaling $50,560, and recognized derivative expense of $454 for the change in fair value for the three months ended June 30, 2015.

 

As of June 30, 2015, the Peak Debenture is carried at $99,545, net of unamortized discount of $39,601.

 

July 2014 Convertible Promissory Notes

 

In July 2014, the Company issued Convertible Promissory Notes with an aggregate face value of $52,500 for cash ($27,500 was provided by the CEO and CFO and two board members). The Convertible Promissory Notes accrue interest at an annual rate of 10%, mature in July 2015, and are convertible into the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate of $0.165 per share. The holders of the Convertible Promissory Notes also received warrants to acquire 318,182 shares of common stock for an exercise price of $0.50 per share, exercisable over five years.

 

The Company allocated the proceeds from the Convertible Promissory Notes to the warrants and the notes based on their relative fair values, allocated $6,117 to the warrants, and determined that there were aggregate beneficial conversion features of $8,512. The fair value of the warrants was determined using the BSM valuation model and the following assumptions: volatility – 43.99% to 44.08%, risk free rate – 1.66 to 1.74% %, dividend rate – 0.00%. The amount allocated to the warrants and beneficial conversion features; totaling $14,629, was recorded as a discount against the Convertible Promissory Notes with an offsetting entry to additional paid-in capital. The discounts are being amortized into interest expense over the term of the Convertible Promissory Notes.

NOTE 5 – CONVERTIBLE DEBT – Continued

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company recorded amortization of the discount of $3,648 and $7,255, respectively. During the three and six months June 30, 2015, the Company recorded interest expense of $1,309 and $2,609, respectively. As of June 30, 2015, the carrying value of the Convertible Promissory Notes was $52,345, net of unamortized discounts of $156.

 

NOTE 6 – STOCK SETTLED DEBT OBLIGATION

 

The Company determined that the conversion feature included in the November 2014 Peak Debenture required liability treatment because it is convertible into a fixed dollar amount based on a variable conversion rate. Because of the uncertainty regarding the number of shares of common stock that may be issuable upon the conversion of the convertible debt, the conversion option is required to be accounted for separately and presented as a stock settled debt obligation on the Company’s balance sheet, with subsequent changes in fair value reported in the Company’s statement of operations. On the date of issuance, the Company recorded a stock settled debt obligation of $66,423 with an offsetting discount against the convertible debt to be amortized into interest expense through the maturity of the convertible debt. The Company adjusted the stock settled debt obligation to its fair value on June 30, 2015, of $50,560, resulting in derivative expense of $454 and $1,091 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, the holder of the Peak Debenture elected to convert $30,000 of principal into 1,373,625 shares of Common Stock, resulting in a change to stock settled debt obligation of $15,953 to record the transaction. The Company used Monte Carlo simulations and the following assumptions in estimating the fair value of the embedded conversion option of the derivative liability:

 

		Issuance Date			December 31, 2014			June 2, 2015			June 18, 2015			June 30, 2015
Expected Volatility		41.50	%		44.10	%		37.40	%		37.70	%		37.20	%
Expected Term		3.00 Years			2.85 Years			2.43 Years			2.39 Years			2.36 Years
Risk-Free Interest Rate		0.51	%		1.02	%		0.64	%		0.66	%		0.64	%
Dividend Rate		—	%		—	%		—	%		—	%		—	%

 

The following table presents changes in Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. Both observable and unobservable inputs were used to determine the fair value of positions that the Company has classified within the Level 3 category. Unrealized gains and losses associated with liabilities within the Level 3 category include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable (e.g., changes in market interest rates) and unobservable (e.g., changes in unobservable long-dated volatilities) inputs.

NOTE 7 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

In 2009, the Company approved the 2009 Employee, Director and Consultant Stock Option Plan (the “2009 Plan”) and authorized an option pool of 5,500,000 shares that was subject to a 3 for 1 reverse stock split, resulting in an authorized option pool of 1,833,333. Stock options typically vest over a three-year period and have a life of ten years from the date granted. In 2009, the Company accelerated the option vesting of certain employees who terminated their employment, but agreed to work in a consulting capacity. In exchange for the accelerated vesting, the employees agreed to shorter expiration periods for their options. As of June 30, 2015, there were 1,468,766 shares available for awards under this plan.

 

In 2012, the Company approved the 2012 Employee, Director and Consultant Stock Option Plan (the “2012 Plan”) and authorized an option pool of 7,500,000 shares. Stock options typically vest over a three-year period and have a life of ten years from the date granted. As of June 30, 2015, there were 4,653,000 shares available for awards under this plan.

 

On February 12, 2014, Arol Buntzman resigned from his positions as Chairman, Director and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Company. The Company’s Board of Directors has commenced a search for a permanent CEO and has appointed Nicole Fernandez-McGovern, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, as CEO to serve until a permanent CEO is hired.

 

As a result of Mr. Buntzman’s resignation pursuant to the December 2013 non-qualified stock option agreement between him and the Company, which granted to him options to purchase up to 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock outside of the Company’s 2009 and 2012 stock option plans (the “Option Agreement”), options to purchase 1,500,000 shares of stock were automatically cancelled, leaving 2,500,000 outstanding options. These options covered 1,000,000 shares at an exercise price of $0.30 per share and three tranches of 500,000 shares each at an exercise price of $0.40, $0.60 and $0.70 per share, respectively. The Company believes that some or all of the remaining options under the Option Agreement, representing 1,500,000 shares in three tranches of 500,000 shares each at exercise prices of $0.40, $0.60 and $0.70, respectively, should be

cancelled based on the circumstances of Mr. Buntzman’s resignation. Mr. Buntzman disputes the Company’s position. If the dispute is not settled, the matter is subject to binding arbitration. No demand for arbitration has been filed by either party.

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company issued to employees, directors or consultants 130,000 options, to acquire shares of common stock. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company issued to employees, directors or consultants 130,000 and 1,264,000, respectively, to acquire shares of common stock.

 

The grant-date fair value of options is estimated using the BSM valuation model. The per share weighted average fair value of stock options granted during 2015 was $0.07 and was determined using the following assumptions: expected price volatility is 49.6%, risk-free interest rate of 1.06%, zero expected dividend yield, and 6.5 years expected life of options. The expected term of options granted is based on the simplified method in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin 107, and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The Company makes assumptions with respect to expected stock price volatility based on the average historical volatility of peers with similar attributes. In addition, the Company determines the risk free rate by selecting the U.S. Treasury with maturities similar to the expected terms of grants, quoted on an investment basis in effect at the time of grant for that business day.

 

As of June 30, 2015, there was approximately $68,525 of total unrecognized stock compensation expense, related to unvested stock options under both Plans. This expense is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting periods of the outstanding options of .50 years.

NOTE 8 – WARRANTS TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company issued, in connection with the issuance of debentures, warrants to purchase 445,500 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.15 and $0.20. All warrants outstanding as of June 30, 2015 are scheduled to expire at various dates through 2019.

 

The grant-date fair value of warrants is estimated using the BSM valuation model. The per share weighted average fair value of the warrants granted during 2015 was $0.17 and was determined using the following assumptions: expected price volatility ranging between 38.96% to 49.60%, risk-free interest rate ranging between 0.83% to 1.13%, zero expected dividend yield, and 3.0 year life of warrants. The Company makes assumptions with respect to expected stock price volatility based on the average historical volatility of peers with similar attributes. In addition, the Company determines the risk-free rate by selecting the U.S. Treasury with maturities similar to the expected terms of grants, quoted on an investment basis in effect at the time of grant for that business day.

 

A summary of warrants issued, exercised and expired for the six months ended June 30, 2015 follows:

 

		Shares			Weighted-Average Exercise Price ($)			Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Term
Outstanding at December 31, 2014		17,308,258			0.70			2.04

NOTE 9 – STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY

 

Discount related to issuance of debt with warrants and allocated fair value to beneficial conversion feature – During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company raised gross proceeds of $319,000 pursuant to the issuance of an Unsecured Redeemable Debenture Series F (the “Series F Debentures”) with detachable stock warrants. The Company allocated the value of the Series F Debentures and the warrants based on their relative fair values, which resulted in a discount to the carrying value of the Series F Debentures. As a result of the allocation a beneficial conversion features was created totaling $274,122, which was recorded as a discount against the Series F Debentures, with an offsetting entry to additional paid-in-capital. The discounts are being amortized into interest expense over the term of the Series F Debentures.

 

NOTE 10. – POTENTIALLY DILUTIVE SECURITIES

 

Options, warrants and convertible debt were all considered anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 due to net losses that the Company reported. The following table sets forth the securities that were not included in the diluted net loss per share calculation because their effect was anti-dilutive as of the periods presented:

NOTE 11 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Leases

 

On August 9, 2013, the Company commenced a lease for 8,713 square feet for its former corporate offices located in Portsmouth, New Hampshire which had a five-year term ending on September 8, 2018. The monthly rental payments for the first year were $10,165 per month and were scheduled to increase on each anniversary at a rate of 3% per annum. The Company was required to pay its proportionate share of the building’s common area maintenance (“CAM”), real estate taxes, utilities serving the premises and the cost of premises janitorial service estimated to be $5,210 on a monthly basis.

 

On August 11, 2014, the landlord declared the Company in default based on its failure to pay rent and other charges due since July 2014. The Company vacated the premises on August 22, 2014, and moved its office to smaller, less expensive premises in the neighboring area. Past due amounts owed on the lease through the date of surrender of the premises total approximately $51,000. Total payments from the date of surrender through the end of the lease would be approximately $900,000 if the space was not occupied however on January 1, 2015 the space was leased to a new tenant controlled by the former CEO thereby mitigating the liability to the Company. The Company is attempting to negotiate a settlement of the lease with the landlord based on an offset for the fair market rental value of the premises and a discount to present value, as well as a discount based on the Company’s precarious financial condition. In addition, the Company has accrued all past due amounts fully and an additional amount based on an offer of settlement presented to the landlord. There can be no assurance that settlement of this lease will not have a material adverse effect on the Company. No legal demands have been filed by either party.

NOTE 11 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES – Continued

 

In April 2015, the Company executed a lease that commenced on May 1, 2015 for office space located in Davie, Florida. The lease has monthly payments of $954 per month for a six-month term and has an option to extend for another six-month term.

 

NOTE 12 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

During the third quarter of 2015, the Company has borrowed from accredited investors and a related party (the “Debenture Holders”) $123,000 ($50,000 was provided by a board member) pursuant to Series F Debenture. See Note 5 for the terms of the Series F Debentures. The Company incurred no commission costs in connection with these transactions.

 

During the third quarter of 2015, $350,833 of the Series C Debentures matured without payment creating an event of default. Consequently, the aggregate principal amount of these debentures plus accrued interest is convertible into Common Stock at .20 per share. As of August 14, 2015, the Debentures were convertible into an aggregate of 1,754,165 shares. During the third quarter of 2015, $25,000 of the Series F Debentures matured without payment creating an event of default. Consequently, aggregate principal amount of these debentures plus accrued interest is convertible into Common Stock at .03 per share. As of August 14, 2015, the Debentures were convertible into an aggregate of 833,333 shares. See Note 5 for the terms of the Series C and F Debentures. At this time, the Company is in discussion with the Debenture Holders and no notices of conversion of these debentures have been received as of August 14, 2015.

 

During the third quarter of 2015, 7,452,065 shares of common stock were issued upon the conversion of $65,000 of principal on the Peak Debenture. The remaining principal amount of the Peak Debenture of $30,000 was later settled in full upon payment by the Company of $49,000.

 

 

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes contained in this quarterly report, and the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes, and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. The results of operations for an interim period may not give a true indication of results for future interim periods or the year. In the following discussion, all comparisons are with the corresponding items in the prior or year period.

 

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information and Factors That May Affect Future Results

 

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations for three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes to those statements that are included elsewhere in this report. Our discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under the Item 1.01. ”Risk Factors,” “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Business” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements.

 

Overview

 

Trunity Holdings, Inc. (“Trunity” or the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation headquartered in Davie, Florida. We have a wholly-owned subsidiary, Trunity, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Trunity, Inc. “or the “Company”), also based in Davie, Florida, which was formed on July 28, 2009 through the acquisition of certain intellectual property by our three founders.

 

We have developed a patent-pending, cloud-based collaborative knowledge management, publishing and education delivery platform – the Trunity eLearning Platform (the “Platform”), which provides an end-to-end solution for the rapidly growing e-textbook, elearning, enterprise training and education marketplaces. As a result of the Platform’s innovative multi-tenant cloud-based architecture, it enables a unique integration of academic content with learning management systems. We allow content from multiple sources to be assembled into customized living textbooks, known as Trubooks^™, and courseware all delivered with real-time updates directly to the student on any Internet-enabled computer or smart mobile device.

 

Trunity offers a Learning Content Management System (LCMS) that has been built from the ground up atop a robust knowledge gathering and management platform, collectively referred to as the Trunity eLearning Platform. This Platform currently comprises four tightly integrated components:

 

	1.	Trunity Author™: functionality for collaboratively gathering, organizing and publishing knowledge content, such as for encyclopedias, knowledge bases and e-textbooks.
	2.	Trunity Reader™: functionality for teaching and learning management, such as assignments, quizzes, exams, grading and reporting.
	3.	Trunity Classroom™: functionality for collaboration and online social interaction, such as messaging, forums, commenting, rating, tagging and sharing, and allowing instructors to build customized, content-oriented virtual classrooms;.
	4.	Trunity Knowledge Exchange: store functionality for distributing and monetizing living content, such as royalty tracking, real-time updates and analytics.

 

 

Connecting these components is an integrated core that includes identity/profile management, knowledge taxonomy management, content exchange, ecommerce and search functionality. Depending on the application, all or any subset of the functional components can be deployed for a specific customer solution. Also, the Platform can be used as a stand-alone solution or may be integrated with existing data systems. Ultimately, our strategy is to treat all components of content within the system as assets – from textbooks and lectures to assignments and exams – all of which may be shared, modified and re-used effortlessly on a per-permission/policy/fee basis via Trunity’s integrated publishing and ecommerce infrastructure.

 

Under development for over a year, we released Version 2.0 of the Trunity eLearning Platform in late 2013. This release constituted the largest single release to date and provided us with a next-generation technology foundation with powerful new programming and scalability features. Key components include a next-generation content engine based on highly flexible and scalable NoSQL database technology, as well as a robust new Java-based Application Programming Interface (API). New functionality included in this release was an easily customizable publishing workflow, extensible standards tagging framework (includes Common Core alignment), automatic reading level tagging, and self-assessment, among other new features.

 

The 2.0 release has allowed us to augment our Platform with meta-tagging capabilities that allows content to be categorized and aligned to various educational standards such as Common Core. This allows authors, curriculum developers and teachers to find and pull together (via Trunity’s LiveCross publishing technology) different content modules to create Trubooks^™, and courses customized for specific curriculum standards and differentiated student learning needs. In particular, the Common Core framework built around the concept of modularized content – adopted by 46 out of 50 states for their K-12 curriculum – has presented unique challenges that traditional textbook publishers have been ill-equipped to address with their monolithic textbook publishing model. As federal funding is often tied to the adoption of these standards and corresponding learning outcomes, we believe that we are well positioned with both the school districts and traditional publishers that have adopted the Common Core standards.

 

In mid-2014, we announced plans to release our next generation architecture for the Trunity eLearning Platform. Version 3.0, which incorporates several new highly innovative technical frameworks enabling faster and more robust development, weds a new mobile app, branded as Trunity Mobile, with a major enhancement of our content creation and courseware technology, bringing to market a suite of leading edge experiences for teachers, students, authors and publishers. Version 3.0 includes a much more robust user interface, as well as a broad range of new features and functionality that further extend Trunity’s technological lead in the global education technology marketplace. In fact, Version 3.0 is designed to help realize Trunity’s vision for an eLearning platform with no rivals: a single web-based platform that seamlessly integrates content creation, Trubooks^™, and courseware, teacher-to-student and group-to-group sharing of messages, notes, annotations, content and bookmarks in real-time – all within a single virtual classroom.

 

Specifically, new features in 3.0 that should serve to definitively differentiate our Platform include a series of major enhancements to existing functionality relating to the delivery and engagement of quizzes, exams, self-assessments and assignments. In addition, we will be introducing flash cards, book and course level store ecommerce integration and reporting, and much more robust highlighting and note-taking capabilities. In addition, Version 3.0 will deliver greatly enhanced personalization capabilities that will permit teachers to better assess a student’s learning progress in relation to his or her class peers and allow them to customize learning experiences, instructional approaches and academic support strategies to meet individual learning needs. It is our belief that Version 3.0 will serve to meaningfully contribute to the academic success of each student on our Platform, providing for much more efficient and productive student/teacher engagement. As with previous generations of the Platform, authors and instructors will be able to create their own content, upload content from publishers and from open source collections, such as YouTube and the Encyclopedia of the Earth, and to selectively organize that content for use in multiple classrooms and/or as components of Trubooks^™.

 

 

We released a beta version of 3.0 and have scheduled the full release to occur in the third quarter of 2015. Additional enhancements to the Platform, in the form of Version 3.1, are expected to be released for general availability in the fourth quarter of 2015.

 

In late 2014, we also released our new mobile app, Trunity Mobile, available as a free download to current Trunity student and educator users from the Apple App Store for iOS mobile devices. Trunity Mobile features dynamic, rich media content (audio, video, images, animations, etc.) that engages students and improves learning outcomes. In addition, highlighting and note-taking capabilities are complemented by powerful and intuitive search, automatic content updates and alerts, familiar swipe, tape and pinch/zoom behaviors and a comprehensive, interactive glossary. The key competitive differentiator of our mobile app is that it enables downloads of select content or complete Trubooks^™ for offline use, which precisely mirrors the online experience. This unique capability makes Trunity the first educational technology company able to provide a mobile eLearning platform capable of delivering truly interactive functionality for both online and offline use.

 

In the third quarter of 2015, we expect to release Trunity Mobile 1.2, which will be available for free download on both Android and iOS operating platforms. In addition, this generation will also feature highlighting/annotation syncing, improved auto-updating functionality and enhanced support for social, collaborative learning. The generation supporting downloads on devices running the Windows 10 (and potentially Google ChromeOS) is expected to be released in the fourth quarter of 2015.

 

Trunity launched its revamped and greatly enhanced Trunity Store – known as the Trunity Knowledge Exchange – in time for the start of the Winter/Spring Semester 2015. In addition to providing a much enhanced user interface and full responsive design for purchase via mobile phones, the new store ensures that students are guided to purchase the correct custom Trubook^™ or course that they are taking, allows single use vouchers to be sold at campus bookstores that can be redeemed at the Trunity Knowledge Exchange, and provides much improved store management, reporting, and analytics, along with a number of other new and improved features. The new Trunity Knowledge Exchange is also designed for tight integration with the Trunity 3.0 Platform when this is expected to be released in the third quarter of this year.

 

Through adoption of the Trunity eLearning Platform, we believe our technology holds the power to engage students and educators, alike, in rich, compelling learning experiences that serve to develop more meaningful knowledge and skill development, particularly with problem-solving, creativity and critical thinking skills so highly desired in today’s global marketplace. Moreover, because our Platform offers the potential to increase access to educational resources and experts that extend learning beyond the capacities or limitations of individual schools or communities, Trunity has the power to change the paradigm of traditional teaching and learning; helping students of all ages, cultural backgrounds and geographic vicinities to take greater responsibility for their own educational destinies – exploring and engaging knowledge with unfettered curiosity, thus creating successive generations of lifelong learners.

 

We encounter a variety of challenges that may affect our business and should be considered as described in Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and in the section of this quarterly report captioned “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information and Factors That May Affect Future Results.”

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, the discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses reported in those financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience and other factors that we believe are most likely to occur. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates, which are recorded in the period in which they become known.

 

Our most critical accounting policies relate to revenue recognition, web development assets, derivative instruments and share-based compensation. Since December 31, 2014, there have been no significant changes to the assumptions and estimates related to those critical accounting policies.

 

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The recent accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

 

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a new pronouncement that requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. The pronouncement becomes effective for us in the first quarter of 2016. Early adoption is permitted. We believe adoption of the pronouncement will not have a significant impact on the financial statements or its results of operations.

 

Results of Operations

 

For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014

 

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $66,458 representing a 167% increase over net sales of $24,984 reported for the same three months in 2014. Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $185,137 representing a 117% increase over net sales of $85,320 reported for the same six months in 2014. The increase for both three and six month sales were largely attributable to increased Trubook^™ sales to the higher education market for the summer 2015 school term, content ingestion revenue associated with publishers placing their content on the Trunity eLearning Platform as part of their digital strategy and the VCI licensing agreement.

 

We believe that our revenue will continue to increase substantially during 2015 based upon revenue recognition from licensing revenue stemming from both current and anticipated new customers; new Trubooks^™ being authored and/or published on our Platform; specific global marketing initiatives that we believe will generate new users; and ‘word of mouth’ referrals from satisfied users of our Platform. However, there can be no assurance that this expected revenue growth will occur.

 

Cost of goods sold for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, totaled $27,894 and $19,801, respectively, and resulted in gross profit of $38,564 and $5,093, respectively. Our gross profit margin on sales saw a significant improvement, rising to 58% for the three months ended June 30, 2015 from 20% for the comparable prior period and 51% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 from 19% for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The increase in our gross profit was primarily due to the increase in sales of our Trubooks^™ coupled with the reduction in royalty rates for authors versus the previous year and our increase in our content ingestion revenue associated with our publishing partner agreements.

 

Our total operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2015 were $419,546 compared to $790,969 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 resulting in a 47% reduction in costs. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 our total operating expenses were $866,511 compared to $1,831,801 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 resulting in a 53% reduction in costs. The decrease in operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 in comparison to prior periods were due primarily to successful execution of numerous cost cutting strategies that we implemented over the past several quarters. These cost cutting initiatives included the movement of product development activities off-shore resulting in reduction of payroll costs, office space withdrawal, decrease in consulting and legal fees, and lower stock-based compensation expense, offset by higher accretion for debt discounts and issuance costs, as well as higher accrued interest and other liabilities related to our debentures.

 

 

Overall the reduction in operating expenses noted above resulted in our selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses measurably declining 39% to $232,596 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 compared to $380,761 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and a 48% reduction for the six months ended June 30, 2015 to $484,862 compared to $929,707 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Our research and development costs also decreased 54% to $186,950 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 from $410,208 reported for the comparable prior period and 58% decrease to $381,649 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 in comparison to the prior period of $902,094. As a result of the majority of the development on the next generation Trunity eLearning Platform being completed and an expectation of a full commercial launch of version “3.0” in the third quarter 2015 research and development costs decreased in the current periods.

 

Our loss from operations decreased 52% to $380,982 from $785,876 for the first three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively and 58% to $771,397 from $1,815,414 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 due to higher revenues and lower operating expenses.

 

After factoring net interest expense of $318,747 and foreign currency translation adjustments of $14,082, our comprehensive net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $699,729. This compared to a comprehensive net loss of $883,089 for the same three months in 2014, after factoring net interest expense of $97,213 and foreign currency translation adjustments of ($2,001). Our comprehensive net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2015 totaled $1,309,392, compared to a comprehensive net loss of $1,999,218 for the same six months in 2014 after factoring net interest expense of $550,802 and foreign currency translation adjustments of $12,807 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to $191,685 in interest expense and $7,881 of foreign currency translation adjustments for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate sufficient cash to satisfy its needs for operations. At June 30, 2015, we had negative working capital of $3, 792,487 as compared to negative working capital of $3,071,463 at December 31, 2014.

 

Our current assets at June 30, 2015 totaled $16,000 in cash and $5,165 accounts receivable, which compared to $14,119 in cash and $3,020 in accounts receivable at December 31, 2014. Our current liabilities of $3,962,440 at June 30, 2015 and $3,229,093 at December 31, 2014 included accounts payables, notes payable – related parties, accrued interest, professional fees and vacation expense and amounts owed to shareholders for working capital loans, convertible note payables and deferred revenue. Net cash used in operating activities was $239,974 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to $1,089,907 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Working capital changes consumed cash of $357,826 for the current period compared to $219,201 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. In addition, our net loss was impacted by non-cash expenses related to depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and accounting for accretion for debt discounts and issuance costs, as well as accounting for the fair value of an embedded conversion feature for our debentures.

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $72,983 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to net cash used of $328,719 for the same three months in 2014. The reduction in net cash used in our investing activities was largely due to the fact that we have completed much of the development on the next generation Trunity eLearning Platform and expect to have a full commercial launch of Version 3.0 in the third quarter of 2015.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $314,838 as compared to $655,948 for the six months ended June 30, 2014. This increase was due to more proceeds being raised from the issuance of debentures in the first and second quarter of 2015.

 

We do not have any commitments for capital expenditures during the next 12 months nor do we have any committed external sources of capital. We do not believe our working capital is sufficient to fund our operations and permit us to satisfy our obligations as they become due and as a result we may not be able to continue operations. We have continued to expand our business and our expenses are much greater than revenues despite our focused cost-control efforts. Even if we are successful in substantially increasing our revenues from expected sales, we will still need to raise substantial additional working capital. We do not have any firm commitments to provide the additional capital which is needed and there are no assurances that we will be able to secure capital on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Our ability to significantly increase our revenues and successfully raise additional working capital is key to our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are not successful in both of these efforts, we may be forced to significantly curtail or cease our operations.

 

Plan of Operation

 

We have developed a collaborative knowledge management, publishing and education delivery platform that provides an end-to-end solution for the rapidly growing digital content books, e-learning, enterprise training and education marketplaces. As a result of the Trunity eLearning Platform’s innovative multi-tenant cloud-based architecture, this enables a unique integration of academic content with learning management systems. It allows content from multiple sources to be assembled into customized Trubooks^™ and courseware and delivered with real-time updates directly to the student on any Internet-enabled computer or smart mobile device. All content powered by us is seamlessly integrated with learning management, social collaboration, standards and measurement tagging, real-time analytics and royalty tracking functionality. The content is available to be purchased or shared via the Trunity Knowledge Exchange or within private communities powered by the Platform.

 

In mid-2014, we announced plans to release our next generation architecture for the Trunity eLearning Platform. Version 3.0, which incorporates several new highly innovative technical frameworks enabling faster and more robust development, weds a new mobile app, branded as Trunity Mobile, with a major enhancement of our content creation and courseware technology, bringing to market a suite of leading edge experiences for teachers, students, authors and publishers. Version 3.0 includes a much more robust user interface, as well as a broad range of new features and functionality that further extend Trunity’s technological lead in the global education technology marketplace. In fact, Version 3.0 is designed to help realize Trunity’s vision for an eLearning platform with no rivals: a single web-based platform that seamlessly integrates content creation, Trubooks^™ and courseware, teacher-to-student and group-to-group sharing of messages, notes, annotations, content and bookmarks in real-time – all within a single virtual classroom.

 

 

Specifically, new features in 3.0 that should serve to definitively differentiate our Platform include a series of major enhancements to existing functionality relating to the delivery and engagement of quizzes, exams, self-assessments and assignments. In addition, we will be introducing flash cards, book and course level store ecommerce integration and reporting, and much more robust highlighting and note-taking capabilities. In addition, Version 3.0 will deliver greatly enhanced personalization capabilities that will permit teachers to better assess a student’s learning progress in relation to his or her class peers and allow them to customize learning experiences, instructional approaches and academic support strategies to meet individual learning needs. It is our belief that Version 3.0 will serve to meaningfully contribute to the academic success of each student on our Platform, providing for much more efficient and productive student/teacher engagement. As with previous generations of the Platform, authors and instructors will be able to create their own content, upload content from publishers and from open source collections, such as YouTube and the Encyclopedia of the Earth, and to selectively organize that content for use in multiple classrooms and/or as components of Trubooks^™.

 

We released a beta version of 3.0 for general availability in the fall of 2014 and have scheduled the full release to occur in the third quarter of 2015. Additional enhancements to the Platform, in the form of Version 3.1, are expected to be released for general availability in the fourth quarter of 2015.

 

In the third quarter of 2014, we also released our new mobile app, Trunity Mobile, available as a free download to current Trunity student and educator users from the Apple App Store for iOS mobile devices. Trunity Mobile features dynamic, rich media content (audio, video, images, animations, etc.) that engages students and improves learning outcomes. In addition, highlighting and note-taking capabilities are complemented by powerful and intuitive search, automatic content updates and alerts, familiar swipe, tape and pinch/zoom behaviors and a comprehensive, interactive glossary. The key competitive differentiator of our mobile app is that it enables downloads of select content or complete Trubooks^™ for offline use, which precisely mirrors the online experience. This unique capability makes Trunity the first educational technology company able to provide a mobile eLearning platform capable of delivering truly interactive functionality for both online and offline use.

 

In the third quarter of 2015, we expect to release Trunity Mobile 1.2, which will be available for free download on both Android. In addition, this generation will also feature highlighting/annotation syncing, improved auto-updating functionality and enhanced support for social, collaborative learning. The generation supporting downloads by mobile device users on Windows 8 and 10 operating systems (and potentially Google Chrome) are expected to be released late in the fourth quarter of 2015.

 

Our Trubook^™ solution has seen strong adoption in the U.S. education market since its initial launch in the fall of 2012. The first Trubook^™ authored on the Trunity eLearning Platform was deployed in the first semester at Boston University and sold to 150+ students in a single class at $50 each, expanding to four universities and seven courses by the second semester. This Trubook^™ has been used in 20 colleges and universities and in five high schools, and has been sold to over 1,500 students. This increase in sales demonstrates a repeatable and scalable business model to be followed for the continued adoption of truly interactive books.

 

In addition to the continued organic author sign-ups, in 2014 we launched a large scale author-teacher recruitment campaign which is specifically geared toward gathering premium content (full textbooks, chapters, courses, modules, videos, PowerPoint and other learning resources) to be sold on the Trunity Knowledge Exchange. The campaign is anchored by Trunity’s participation in a number of well attended industry conferences and trade shows, at which our Chief Education Officer, Dr. Cutler Cleveland, has and will continue to lead Trunity-sponsored seminars relating to “how-to-author” and the related benefits of authoring on the Trunity eLearning Platform. In addition, Dr. Cleveland and other members of the Trunity marketing team have and will continue to host convenient, online webinars to reach and educate authors on the benefits of authoring on the Platform.

 

 

As of the end of June 30, 2015, we had fourteen Trubooks^™ on the Platform and we have contracted with the authors of 16 new Trubooks^™ that are currently in production, most of which are expected to be completed and ready for marketing to schools and universities for the 2015 and 2016.

 

In January 2014, we signed a Memorandum of Understanding with global education leader Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (“HMH”) to offer select HMH digital content via the Trunity Knowledge Exchange to Pre-K-12 schools, as well as to government agencies and entities responsible for the selection or purchase of educational materials. Among the world’s largest providers of pre-K-12 education solutions and longest-established publishing houses, HMH combines cutting-edge research, editorial excellence and technological innovation to improve teaching and learning environments and solve complex literacy and education challenges. HMH’s interactive, results-driven education solutions are utilized by more than 50 million students in over 150 countries, and it’s renowned and awarded novels, non-fiction, children’s books and reference works are enjoyed by readers throughout the world. On July 21, 2014, we entered into a non-exclusive and licensed distribution agreement with HMH whereby 6,610 units of HMH’s Holt McDougal Chemistry & Physics ©2012 Online Interactive Content have been sold and are now accessible to its students, anywhere, anytime and on any desktop or mobile computing device via the Trunity eLearning Platform. We continue to actively pursue sales opportunities with HMH in collaboration with their sales and marketing efforts.

 

As one of the world’s leading providers of research-based, technology-enabled education content and solutions, HMH is seeking to leverage the robust scalability, rich multi-media, mobile capabilities, and intuitive cloud-based functionality of the Trunity eLearning Platform to provide increased access to its educational content in high growth international markets. Moreover both companies hope to leverage our combined strengths to provide an enriching educational experience for both students and teachers anywhere, anytime and on any connected device. It is anticipated that the Trunity eLearning Platform will integrate HMH’s quality content to provide a vibrant, interactive learning vehicle capable of delivering modular, customizable, real-time learning solutions through the cloud.

 

Both companies teamed up to showcase HMH’s premium learning content through the Trunity eLearning Platform, co-exhibiting at the recent BETT 2014 conference held in London in January 2014 and QITCOM show in QATAR in May 2014. Both companies are planning on continuing to jointly showcase our combined solutions at more industry events in 2015.

 

On March 20, 2013, we entered into a transaction pursuant to which the Trunity eLearning Platform was selected by the Ukraine Government’s Open World National Project to serve as the foundation for the country’s national educational network for public school students in grades five through nine, representing approximately 1,500,000 students. It is important to note that the political upheaval that has taken place in Ukraine since February 2014 resulting in the Ukrainian parliament voting to dismiss the country’s president, Victor Yanukovych, and the Russian annexation of Crimea followed by armed conflict with Russian-backed rebels in eastern Ukraine, have created uncertainty as to the viability of the Ukraine government’s Open World National Project; which, in turn, may impact Trunity’s ability to complete the project implementation. We have on boarded content to the newly developed Ukrainian Knowledge Exchange however given the recent political climate in Ukraine; the launch of the Open World Project is currently on hold. Nonetheless Trunity is poised and ready to proceed with the initiative as soon as the Ukranian government is ready to proceed with the Project.

 

On June 5, 2013, we completed a $3.575 million strategic funding led by Pan-African Investment Company (PIC), which was founded by Dick Parsons and Ronald Lauder. Parsons and Lauder formed PIC to identify, invest in and provide solutions that effect growth and development in Africa. In addition to the investment, we entered into an agreement appointing PIC as our exclusive sales agent in Africa. We anticipate a presence in Africa as part of our strategy to bring our platform to the African continent.

 

 

Trunity expanded our international presence into the Middle East in the fall of 2014 with the sale of over 6,000 Platform licenses to the Institute of Applied Technology (IAT) headquartered in Dubai, with the Trunity platform currently in use at four different IAT campuses. The sale was accomplished in collaboration with our strategic partner Houghton Mifflin Harcourt and its Middle Eastern distributor, All Prints Distributors and Publishers. All Prints is the main supplier of textbooks and educational materials to all the major universities, schools and educational institutes in the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Syria and Lebanon.

 

Content modularization capabilities allow our products to be mixed and matched and purchased in whole or in part. Our core products are in production and operational, and are currently in use by a growing number of paying customers; however, our revenues are well below the level needed for profitability. We believe that our focused marketing efforts as well as the impact of positive “word of mouth” endorsements from satisfied users will enable us to substantially increase revenues; however, there can be no assurance that we will achieve profitability at any time in the foreseeable future.

 

Our current market penetration strategies are focused on optimizing prevailing opportunities within four key channels: K-12, Higher Education, International Initiatives and Enterprise. These efforts are expected to yield notable revenue growth for Trunity in 2015, and represent what we believe is the beginning of a positive, upward trend. Moreover, our go-to-market strategy is expected to continue attracting significant new revenue opportunities for the Company, serving to further validate our technology and vision. As progress is made in this regard, we expect to play a meaningful role in transforming the publishing industry and improving the quality of content being delivered to students worldwide.

 

Inflation

 

In the opinion of management, inflation has not had and will not have a material effect on our operations in the immediate future. Management will continue to monitor inflation and evaluate the possible future effects of inflation on our business and operations.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of the date of this report, we do not have 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 that are material to investors. The term “off-balance sheet arrangement” generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with us is a party, under which we have any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest or a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.

 

ITEM 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

 

This item is not required for a smaller reporting company.

 

 

ITEM 4(T).    Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

 

Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this by this quarterly report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to our company, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed 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. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

 

	Ÿ	pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
	Ÿ	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
	Ÿ	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.

 

Because of the inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, 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.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Management has evaluated whether any change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Based on its evaluation, management, including the chief executive officer and principal accounting officer, has concluded that there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the first quarter of fiscal 2015 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
