(“Misonix” or the “Company”). A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies is identified in Note 1 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2015 Annual Report. There have been no changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies subsequent to June 30, 2015.

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X pursuant to the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year.

 

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Misonix and its 100% owned subsidiaries, Fibra-Sonics (NY) Inc. and Hearing Innovations, Inc. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Discontinued Operations

 

Laboratory and Forensic Safety Products Business

 

On October 19, 2011, Misonix sold its Laboratory Products business, which comprised substantially all of the Laboratory and Scientific Products segment, to Mystaire, Inc. (“Mystaire”) for $1.5 million in cash plus a potential additional payment of up to an aggregate $500,000 based upon 30% of net sales in excess of $2.0 million for each of the three years following the closing (the “earn-out”). The Laboratory and Forensic Safety Products business manufactured and marketed ductless fume, laminar airflow and polymerase chain reaction workstations both domestically and internationally. The earn-out will not be factored into the gain on sale until it is earned by Misonix. The earn-out period ended October 19, 2014 with no earn-out having been recorded.

 

High Intensity Focused Ultrasound Technology

 

In consideration for the May 2010 sale of its rights to the high intensity focused ultrasound technology to USHIFU LLC, now SonaCare, Misonix will receive up to approximately $5.8 million, paid out of an earn-out of 7% of gross revenues received from Sonicare’s sales of the (i) prostate product in Europe and (ii) kidney and liver products around the world related to the business being sold up to the time the Company has received the first $3 million and thereafter 5% of the gross revenues up to $5.8 million. Commencing 90 days after each December 31st and beginning December 31, 2011 the payments will be the greater of (a) $250,000 or (b) 7% of gross revenues received up to the time the Company has received the first $3 million and thereafter 5% of gross revenues up to the $5.8 million. Cumulative payments through September 30, 2015 were $1,004,788.

 

Results of Discontinued Operations

 

   For the three months ended 
   September 30, 
   2015   2014 
Revenues  $-   $4,975 
Income from discontinued operations, before tax  $-   $4,975 
Gain on sale of discontinued operations   -    - 
Income tax benefit/(expense)   -    - 
Net income from discontinued operations, net of tax  $-   $4,975 

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable, principally trade, are generally due within 30 to 90 days and are stated at amounts due from customers, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the customer’s current credit worthiness, as determined by a review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors aging reports, collections and payments from customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based upon historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified. While such credit losses have historically been within expectations and the provisions established, the Company cannot guarantee that the same credit loss rates will be experienced in the future. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible.

 

2. Loss/Income Per Share of Common Stock

 

Basic income (loss) per common share (“basic EPS”) is computed by dividing income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted income (loss) per common share (“diluted EPS”) is computed by dividing income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding (consisting of outstanding common stock options) for the period.

MISONIX, INC. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

The number of weighted average common shares used in the calculation of basic EPS and diluted EPS were as follows:

 

   For the three months ended 
   September 30, 
   2015   2014 
Basic shares   7,748,509    7,361,555 
Dilutive effect of stock options   -    282,879 
Diluted shares   7,748,509    7,644,434 

 

Excluded from the calculations of diluted EPS are options to purchase 302,000 shares of common stock for the three months ended September 30, 2014, as the exercise price exceeded the average market prices during the period.

 

Diluted EPS for the three months ended September 30, 2015 presented is the same as basic EPS as the inclusion of the effect of common share equivalents then outstanding would be anti-dilutive. For this reason, excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS are outstanding options to purchase 1,764,229 shares of common stock for the three months ended September 30, 2015.

 

3. Comprehensive (Loss)/Income

 

Total comprehensive (loss)/income was $(219,740) and $428,770 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. There are no components of comprehensive income other than net income for all periods presented.

 

4. Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock options are granted with exercise prices not less than the fair market value of our common stock at the time of the grant, with an exercise term (as determined by the committee administering the applicable option plan (the “Committee”)) not to exceed 10 years. The Committee determines the vesting period for the Company’s stock options. Generally, such stock options have vesting periods of immediate to four years. Certain option awards provide for accelerated vesting upon meeting specific retirement, death or disability criteria and upon a change in control. During the three month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company granted options to purchase 230,000 and 277,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively.

 

Stock-based compensation expense for the three month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was approximately $301,000 and $214,000, respectively. Compensation expense is recognized in the general and administrative expenses line item of the Company’s consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods. As of September 30, 2015, there was approximately $3,795,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock-based compensation arrangements to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.0 years.

 

Cash in the amount of $136,056 was received from the exercise of stock options for the three months ended September 30, 2015. Total options exercised, by either cash or through surrender of previously owned shares, were 19,789. There were no options forfeited, expired or acquired in any other method for the three months ended September 30, 2015.

The fair values of the options granted during the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were primarily estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model on the basis of the following weighted average assumptions during the respective periods:

 

   For the three months ended 
   September 30, 
   2015   2014 
Risk-free interest rate   1.48%   1.32%
Expected option life in years   5.0    6.5 
Expected stock price volatility   60.04%   75.0%
Expected dividend yield   0%   0%
Weighted-average fair value of options granted  $4.73   $5.95 

 

The expected option term is based upon the number of years the Company estimates the option will be outstanding based on historical exercises and terminations. The expected volatility for the expected life of the options is determined using historical price changes of the Company’s stock over a period equal to that of the expected life of the options. The risk free rate is based upon the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of the grant. The expected dividend yield is 0% as the Company has historically not declared dividends and does not anticipate declaring any in the future.

 

Changes in outstanding stock options during the three months ended September 30, 2015 were as follows:

 

   Options 
           Weighted     
           Average     
       Weighted   Remaining     
       Average   Contractual   Aggregate 
   Number of   Exercise   Life   Intrinsic 
   Shares   Price ($)   (years)   Value (a) 
Outstanding as of June 30, 2015   1,557,616    5.80           
Granted   230,000    9.43           
Exercised   (23,387)   7.44        $89,710 
Forfeited   -                
Expired   -                
Outstanding as of September 30, 2015   1,764,229    6.25    7.2   $8,376,193 
Exercisable and vested at September 30, 2015   822,154    3.48    6.2   $5,956,818 
Available for grant as of September 30, 2015   569,600                

 

(a) Intrinsic value for purposes of this table represents the amount by which the fair value of the underlying stock, based on the respective market prices at September 30, 2015 or if exercised, the exercise dates, exceeds the exercise prices of the respective options.

5. Income Taxes

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded an income tax benefit from continuing operations of $168,000.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the effective rate of 43.3% and 3.7%, respectively, on continuing operations varied from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to permanent book tax differences, state taxes and a change in the valuation allowance.

 

The Company, as of June 30, 2015, reversed the valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets based on our consideration of all available positive and negative evidence including achieving cumulative profitable operating performance over the past three years and our positive outlook for taxable income for the future. The results of the first quarter fiscal 2016 do not alter the strong positive evidence. As a result, the Company recorded an income tax benefit for the first fiscal quarter 2016 at the annual projected rate of 43.3%.

 

As of September 30, 2015 and June 30, 2015, the Company has no material unrecognized tax benefits or accrued interest and penalties.

8. Commitments and Contingencies

 

 

Contingencies

 

The Company and its subsidiaries are from time to time involved in ordinary and routine litigation. Management presently believes that the ultimate outcome of these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or result of operations.

 

Nevertheless, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and an unfavorable ruling could occur.  An unfavorable ruling could include money damages and in such event, could result in a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations in the year in which the ruling occurs.

 

9. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

We follow a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of “observable inputs” and minimize the use of “unobservable inputs.” The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

 

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets as of the measurement date.

 

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

 

The following is a summary of the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of our financial instruments at September 30, 2015 and June 30, 2015:

 

September 30, 2015  Carrying Amount   Fair Value 
Cash and cash equivalents  $9,745,481   $9,745,481 
Trade accounts receivable   3,703,433    3,703,433 
Trade accounts payable   1,143,051    1,143,051 

   

June 30, 2015  Carrying Amount   Fair Value 
Cash and cash equivalents  $9,623,749   $9,623,749 
Trade accounts receivable   4,481,247    4,481,247 
Trade accounts payable   1,147,414    1,147,414

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.

 

Trade Accounts Receivable

 

The carrying amount of trade receivables reflects net recovery value and approximates fair value because of their short outstanding terms.

 

Trade Accounts Payable

 

The carrying amount of trade payables approximates fair value because of their short outstanding terms.

 

Non-financial assets and liabilities

 

Certain non-financial assets and liabilities, principally goodwill, are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis; that is the assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as when evidence of impairment exists. At September 30, 2015, no fair value adjustments or material fair value measurements were required for non-financial assets or liabilities.

 

10. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill is not amortized. We review goodwill for impairment annually and whenever events or changes indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. These events or circumstances could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, operating performance indicators, competition, or sale or disposition of significant assets or product lines. Application of these impairment tests requires significant judgments, including estimation of cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term rate of growth for our business, estimation of the useful life over which cash flows will occur and determination of our weighted-average cost of capital. We primarily use a discounted cash flow model in determining fair value, which consists of level three inputs. Changes in the projected cash flows and discount rate estimates and assumptions underlying the valuation of goodwill could materially affect the determination of fair value at acquisition or during subsequent periods when tested for impairment. The Company determined that there were no indicators that the recorded goodwill was impaired as of September 30, 2015 which required further testing.

 

On February 1, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with Aesculap, Inc. (“Aesculap”) to buy back certain accounts that were protected under the termination agreement entered into by Misonix and Aesculap on December 31, 2012 (the “Termination Agreement”). The Termination Agreement allowed Aesculap to continue to sell and service key accounts which were defined as accounts maintaining a specified revenue level on average over a three year term which was due to expire on December 31, 2015. The buy back amount total is $328,136 and one half was paid on February 1, 2015 and the balance was paid on March 1, 2015. The total buy back amount includes $28,867 worth of units that will be for customer use and is expected to be fully utilized. The buy back has been recorded as reacquired contractual rights in intangible and other assets and will be amortized over the period through December 31, 2015.

 

The cost of acquiring or processing patents is capitalized. This amount is being amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the underlying assets, which is approximately 17 years. Net patents reported in intangible and other assets totaled $564,255 and $566,028 at September 30, 2015 and June 30, 2015, respectively. Accumulated amortization totaled $814,620 and $791,551 at September 30, 2015 and June 30, 2015, respectively. Amortization expense for the three month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was approximately $23,000 and $79,000, respectively. 

 

Net customer relationships reported in intangible and other assets totaled $0 and $40,000 at September 30, 2015 and June 30, 2015, respectively. Accumulated amortization amounted to $800,000 at September 30, 2015 and $760,000 at June 30, 2015. Amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $40,000. 

 

Net reacquired contractual rights from Aesculap reported in intangible and other assets totaled $89,492 at September 30, 2015 and $178,983 at June 30, 2015. Accumulated amortization amounted to $238,644 at September 30, 2015 and $149,153 at June 30, 2015. Amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was $89,492 and $0, respectively.

11. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205)” and “Property, Plant and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.” The amendments in the ASU change the criteria for reporting discontinued operations while enhancing related disclosures. The amendments in the ASU are effective in the first quarter of 2015. The adoption of ASU 2014-08 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” The new revenue recognition standard as amended provides a five-step analysis to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The standard requires that a company recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019 and will be applied retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU Inventory (Topic 330). The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 2016. The adoption of Inventory Update (Topic 330) will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

12.  Licensing Agreements for Medical Technology

 

In October 1996, the Company entered into a License Agreement (the "USS License") with United States Surgical (now, Covidien plc) for a twenty-year period, expiring October 2016, covering the further development and commercial exploitation of the Company's medical technology relating to laparoscopic products, which uses high frequency sound waves to coagulate and divide tissue for both open and laparoscopic surgery.

 

The USS License gives Covidien exclusive worldwide marketing and sales rights for this technology. Under the USS License, the Company has received $475,000 in licensing fees (which are being recorded as income over the term of the USS License or 20 years), plus royalties based upon net sales of AutoSonix products. Total royalties from sales of this device were approximately $968,000 and $1,121,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014

 

Net sales: Net sales increased 15.7% or $711,648 to $5,250,985 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 from $4,539,337 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase is due to higher BoneScalpel® sales of $653,168, higher SonicOne® sales of $258,251, higher Lithotripsy sales of $3,201 and higher other sales of $605, partially offset by lower SonaStar® sales of $99,698, lower Lysonix sales of $50,586 and lower service sales of $53,293. There were 18 BoneScalpel units consigned in the United States during the three months period ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

 

Set forth below are tables showing the Company’s net sales by (i) product category and (ii) geographic region for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014:

 

    Three months ended ended September 30,

Gross profit: Gross profit increased to 66.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2015 from 65.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase is primarily related to higher sales volume as well as a favorable product mix of higher margin product deliveries.

 

Selling expenses: Selling expenses increased $617,315 to $2,636,601 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 from $2,019,286 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase is due to higher salary expense of $229,110 due to increased head count, higher sales commissions expenses of $138,285, higher travel expenses of $106,086, higher depreciation expenses of $97,603 due to the increase in total BoneScalpel units consigned, higher advertising expenses of $54,879 and higher other expenses of $4,694, partially offset by lower consulting expenses of $13,342.

 

General and administrative expenses: General and administrative expenses increased $575,274 to $1,821,352 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 from $1,246,078 for the three months September 30, 2014. The increase is due to higher accounting expenses of $319,955 due to the fact that Misonix is an accelerated filer which required our outside auditors to issue an opinion on our internal controls, higher non-cash compensation expenses due to the issuance of stock options of $86,747, higher insurance expenses of $79,069 due to higher insured values as compared to the prior year, higher salary expenses of $58,808, and higher consulting expenses of $32,807, partially offset by lower other expenses of $2,049.

 

Research and development expenses: Research and development expenses decreased $44,216 to $393,575 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 from $437,591 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease is due to lower amortization expenses of $67,241, partially offset by higher salary expenses of $22,358 and other higher expenses of $667.

 

Other income (expense): Other income for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was $982,168 as compared to $1,142,297 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease is primarily due to lower royalty income of $166,448 from Covidien, plc.

 

Income taxes: For the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded an effective tax rate of (3.2%) compared to 0.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2014.  The Company as of June 30, 2015 reversed the valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets based upon the strong positive evidence of strong future income. The results of the first fiscal quarter 2016 do not alter the strong positive evidence. As a result the Company recorded an income tax benefit for the first fiscal quarter 2016 at the annual projected tax rate of 43.3%.

 

Discontinued Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We regularly review our cash funding requirements and attempt to meet those requirements through a combination of cash on hand, cash provided by operations and possible future public or private debt and/or equity offerings.  At times, we evaluate possible acquisitions of, or investments in, businesses that are complementary to ours, which may require the use of cash.  At September 30, 2015 we had $9,745,481 in cash and no long term debt. We have been generating cash flow from operations. We believe that our cash, other liquid assets and access to equity capital markets, taken together, provide adequate resources to fund ongoing operating expenditures.  In the event that they do not, we may require additional funds in the future to support our working capital requirements or for other purposes and may seek to raise such additional funds through the sale of public or private equity and/or debt financings, and divestiture of current business lines as well as from other sources.  No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available in the future or that if available, such financing will be obtainable on favorable terms when required.

 

Working capital at September 30, 2015 and June 30, 2015 was approximately $18,511,000 and $18,289,000, respectively.  For the three months ended September 30, 2015, cash provided by operations totaled $92,170, primarily related to lower pre-paid expenses.  For the three months ended September 30, 2015, cash used in investing activities was $106,494 and is related to the acquisition of additional fixed assets and patent filings. For the three months ended September 30, 2015, cash provided by financing activities was $136,056 from the exercise of stock options.  For the three months ended September 30, 2015, cash provided by discontinued operations was $0.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to the Company.

 

Other

 

In the opinion of management, inflation has not had a material effect on the operations of the Company.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Market Risk:

 

The principal market risks (i.e., the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices) to which the Company is exposed are interest rates on cash and cash equivalents.

 

Interest Rate Risk:

 

The Company earns interest on cash balances and pays interest on debt incurred. In light of the Company’s existing cash, results of operations and projected borrowing requirements, the Company does not believe that a 10% change in interest rates would have a significant impact on its consolidated financial position.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decision regarding required disclosures. The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2015 and, based on their evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2015 that has materially affected, or is reasonable likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
