NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Three Months and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016

 

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

 

Organization and Reverse Merger

 

On January 24, 2017, Alltemp, Inc. (“Alltemp”), a Delaware corporation, CSES Group, Inc. (“CSES”), a Nevada corporation, and CSES Acquisition, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a Nevada corporation, executed an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) that provided for Merger Sub to be merged into CSES (the “Merger”), with each outstanding share of common stock of CSES to be converted into 10.65375 shares of Alltemp’s common stock (the “Exchange Ratio”), and each outstanding warrant and stock option to purchase shares of CSES common stock to be cancelled in exchange for a warrant or stock option to purchase shares of Alltemp’s common stock based on the Exchange Ratio.

 

On April 21, 2017, in connection with the Merger, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation was amended to change the Company’s name to Alltemp, Inc. from Source Financial, Inc. and to increase the Company’s authorized shares to 500,000,000 shares of common stock (par value $0.001 per share) and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock (par value $0.01 per share).

 

On April 27, 2017, the consummation of the Merger was effective and CSES became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alltemp. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company (1) issued to the shareholders of CSES an aggregate of 127,045,969 shares of the Company’s common stock; (2) issued to the holders of warrants to purchase CSES common stock, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 18,409,680 shares of the Company’s common stock; (3) issued to the holders of stock options to purchase CSES common stock, stock options to purchase an aggregate of 31,961,200 shares of the Company’s common stock; and (4) issued to the holder of a convertible note of CSES, a promissory note of the Company in the principal amount of $100,000, convertible into 535,681 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Series C Preferred Stock of Alltemp had previously been converted into common stock, and all stock options and warrants of Alltemp were cancelled at the consummation of the Merger. Additional information with respect to this transaction is provided at Note 3.

 

Effective September 29, 2017, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Spider Investments, LLC, a company controlled by the former controlling shareholder of the Company prior to the Merger, which provided for Spider Investments, LLC to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Venture Track, Inc., a Delaware corporation, in exchange for 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Venture Track, Inc. was a development stage company with certain intellectual property that the Company had previously acquired effective June 30, 2016 in a reverse merger transaction. At September, 30, 2017, the Company recorded the cancellation of the 200,000 shares of common stock in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at par value, as a reduction to common stock and an offsetting increase to additional paid-in capital, in the amount of $200.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

For financial reporting purposes, CSES was considered the accounting acquirer in the transaction and the merger was accounted for as a reverse merger. Accordingly, the historical financial statements presented herein are those of CSES and do not include the historical financial results of Alltemp through April 27, 2017. The stockholders’ equity section of Alltemp’s balance sheet has been retroactively restated for all periods presented to reflect the accounting effect of the reverse merger transaction. The net loss per share and weighted average common shares outstanding also reflect the retroactive restatement for all periods presented. All costs associated with the reverse merger transaction were expensed as incurred. Unless the context indicates otherwise, Alltemp and CSES are hereinafter referred to as the “Company”.

 

As a result of the Merger, the former stockholders of CSES owned approximately 76.6% of Alltemp’s outstanding shares of common stock immediately following the consummation of the Merger, reflecting effective control at the closing of the transaction. In addition, CSES management and board members became the management and board members of Alltemp at the closing of the transaction. Accordingly, for legal purposes Alltemp was the legal acquirer and CSES was the legal acquiree, but for accounting purposes, CSES was the accounting acquirer and Alltemp was the accounting acquiree.

 

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited, but in the opinion of management of the Company, contain all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position at September 30, 2017, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 is derived from the Company’s audited financial statements. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for a full fiscal year.

The interim financial statements and related notes have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) with respect to interim financial statements. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although management of the Company believes that the disclosures in these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented therein not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of CSES that were included in the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K and Form 8-K/A, as filed with the SEC on April 28, 2017 and May 23, 2017, respectively.

 

Business Operations

 

CSES was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 12, 2015 for the purpose of commercializing refrigerants under the name alltemp®.

 

CSES develops, markets and sells commercial refrigerants that are marketed under the name alltemp® as a replacement for HCFC-22, better known as R-22, which is a commonly used refrigerant, as well as R-134a and R-404a. R-22 is being phased out in developed countries due to environmental concerns over its effect on the depletion of the Earths ozone layer. alltemp® refrigerants, with various formulations classified as L, M, 4 and H, have broad applications in heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, refrigeration, foam insulation, and industrial solvents.

 

At September 30, 2017, the Company was in the process of constructing a new expanded production line at the Company’s manufacturing facility in Roseburg, Oregon. Testing of this production line began in late July 2017, and operations are expected to commence by the end of the fourth quarter of 2017. The Company is currently experiencing low yields on its manufacturing process, but it is implementing manufacturing improvements that are expected to improve manufacturing yields. The Company’s objective is to develop a production facility that is capable of producing 1,000,000 pounds per month of alltemp® refrigerants.

 

The Company has chosen a multi-prong approach to develop sustainable revenue streams, increase brand awareness, and capture market share. The Company believes that alltemp® is a superior environmental solution for replacement of R-22 and many other historic and emerging Hydrofluorocarbon (“HFC”) refrigerant formulations like R-404A and R-410A, as the performance and efficiency attributes of alltemp® exceed existing R-22 alternatives in the marketplace today.

 

The Company’s marketing focus is to create broad industry awareness of the alltemp® product and its economic and environmental benefits. The Company is also actively working to build efficient distribution chains to reach OEMs, wholesalers, contractors and service personnel responsible for selection and maintenance of a given refrigerant for servicing existing plant and equipment. The Company recently entered the marketplace with alltemp® on a commercial scale. Beta site installations and key discussions with service technicians and distributors have begun throughout the United States and abroad. Case studies in the field have been documented proving the efficacy of alltemp® under the Company’s Early Adopter Program (see “Revenue Recognition” below).

 

The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including the need for additional capital, as described herein. The Company has not yet developed sustainable revenue-generating operations, is in the process of developing a new expanded production line to support an increase in operations, does not have positive cash flows from operations, and is dependent on periodic infusions of debt and equity capital to fund its operating requirements.

 

The Company’s common stock is traded on the OTCQB operated by the OTC Markets under the symbol “LTMP”.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been presented on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has had nominal recurring sources of revenue to date, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company incurred a net loss of $5,956,919 and used cash in operations of $1,814,478. Additionally, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $9,785,660 as of September 30, 2017. The Company has financed its working capital requirements since inception through the sale of its equity securities and borrowings.

 

At September 30, 2017, the Company had cash of $1,512,395, which management believes is sufficient to fund the Company’s business operations through approximately March 31, 2018. Management is currently seeking to raise additional funds, primarily through the issuance of debt or equity securities, and estimates that a significant amount of capital will be necessary to advance the development of its business to the point at which it will become commercially viable and self-sustaining.

 

  9 

 

 

As a result, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements are being issued. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in their report on the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016, has also expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional funds and implement its business plan, and to ultimately achieve sustainable operating revenues and profitability. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

As market conditions present uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to secure additional funds, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to secure additional financing on acceptable terms, or at all, as and when necessary to continue to conduct operations. Such financing may contain undue restrictions on the Company’s operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for the Company’s stockholders, in case of equity financing. If cash resources are insufficient to satisfy the Company’s ongoing cash requirements, the Company would be required to scale back or discontinue its operations, or obtain funds, if available (although there can be no certainty), through strategic alliances that may require the Company to relinquish rights to its technology, or to discontinue its operations entirely.

 

The amount and timing of future cash requirements in 2018 and thereafter will depend on the capital resources required to develop and expand the Company’s business. No assurances can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain comparative figures in 2016 have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications were immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate. These changes did not impact loss from operations or net loss.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and include the financial statements of Alltemp and its wholly-owned subsidiary, CSES. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the accounting for potential liabilities, the assumptions utilized in valuing stock-based compensation issued for services, and the realization of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash Concentrations

 

The Company maintains cash balances with financial institutions in federally-insured accounts. The Company may periodically have cash balances in banks in excess of FDIC insurance limits. The Company maintains its accounts with financial institutions with high credit ratings. The Company has not experienced any losses to date resulting from this practice.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development costs consist primarily of manufactured products utilized in research activities, fees paid to consultants and outside service providers, laboratories and universities, and other expenses relating to the research and development of new products and technology. Research and development costs were $94,992 and $140,243 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $351,467 and $385,406 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Patent Costs

 

Due to the significant uncertainty associated with the successful development of one or more commercially viable products based on the Company’s research efforts and related patent applications, all patent-related legal and filing fees are expensed as incurred. Patent costs were $25,560 and $22,560 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. The Company did not have any patent costs for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2016. Patent costs are included in general and administrative costs in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Concentration of Risk

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2017, 85% of the Company’s revenues were derived from four customers. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, 74% of the Company’s revenues were derived from four different customers.

 

During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017, shipping tanks with a total cost of $43,135 were purchased from a single supplier. During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2016, no shipping tanks were purchased. The Company believes that the single supplier will be able to meet the Company’s shipping tank requirements for the immediate future.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Accordingly, the Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities.

 

The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. In the event the Company was to determine that it would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future in excess of its recorded amount, an adjustment to the deferred tax assets would be credited to operations in the period such determination was made. Likewise, should the Company determine that it would not be able to realize all or part of its deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax assets would be charged to operations in the period such determination was made.

 

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income taxes and income taxes of various state tax jurisdictions. As the Company’s net operating losses have yet to be utilized, all previous tax years remain open to examination by Federal authorities and other jurisdictions in which the Company currently operates or has operated in the past. The Company had no unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and does not anticipate any material amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.

 

The Company accounts for uncertainties in income tax law under a comprehensive model for the financial statement recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns as prescribed by GAAP. The tax effects of a position are recognized only if it is “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the taxing authority as of the reporting date. If the tax position is not considered “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained, then no benefits of the position are recognized. As of September 30, 2017, the Company had not recorded any liability for uncertain tax positions. In subsequent periods, any interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions will be recognized as a component of income tax expense.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company may periodically issue common stock options, and common stock options in the form of warrants, to members of the Board of Directors, officers, employees and consultants for services rendered. Options and warrants will vest and expire according to terms established at the issuance date of each grant.

 

The Company accounts for stock-based payments to officers, employees and directors by measuring the cost of services received in exchange for equity awards based on the grant date fair value of the awards, with the cost recognized as compensation expense on the straight-line basis in the Company’s financial statements over the vesting period of the awards. The Company accounts for stock-based payments to consultants by determining the value of the stock compensation based upon the measurement date at either (a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached or (b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete.

 

Stock options and stock options in the form of warrants granted to outside consultants are revalued each reporting period to determine the amount to be recorded as an expense in the respective period. As the stock options and stock options in the form of warrants, vest, they are valued on each vesting date and an adjustment is recorded for the difference between the value already recorded and the value on the date of vesting.

 

The fair value of stock options and stock options in the form of warrants, granted as stock-based compensation is determined utilizing the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and is affected by several variables, the most significant of which are the life of the equity award, the exercise price of the stock option as compared to the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date, and the estimated volatility of the common stock over the term of the equity award. Prior to the April 27, 2017 reverse merger date, expected volatilities were based on an average historical stock price volatility of comparable public companies that were deemed to be representative of future stock price trends, as the Company did not have a trading history for its own common stock. Since the reverse merger date, volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The fair market value of common stock is determined by reference to the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock.

 

  11 

 

 

The Company recognizes the fair value of stock-based compensation awards in selling, general and administrative costs and in research and development costs, as appropriate, in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations. The Company issues new shares of common stock to satisfy stock option exercises.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when all four of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery of the products and/or services has occurred; (iii) the fees earned can be readily determined; and (iv) collectability of the fees is reasonably assured.

 

As part of the Company’s product commercialization efforts, the Company periodically ships product to potential customers on a review basis under an “early adopter” program. As the Company retains ownership of these products during the review period, these products are carried in inventory, at standard cost. At such time that the customer has completed evaluation of the product’s performance and has formally confirmed that it will retain and utilize the product in its HVAC system, revenues from such arrangements will be recorded on a cost recovery basis, without interest, which are generally expected within one year of such installation. The Company does not recognize any revenues until all of the Company’s costs have been recovered. Costs under this program are charged to selling, general and administrative costs. The Company reviews the status of such products at each quarter end and records a loss for any products for which it does not expect to recover its costs. During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recognized revenues of $0 and $12,025, respectively, under the early adopter program. The Company did not recognize any revenues under the early adopter program during the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2016.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable based on a number of factors. In circumstances where the Company becomes aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations to the Company, a specific reserve for bad debts is estimated and recorded, which reduces the recognized receivable to the estimated amount the Company believes will ultimately be collected. In addition to specific customer identification of potential bad debts, bad debt charges are recorded based on the Company’s historical losses and an overall assessment of past due trade accounts receivable outstanding.

 

An allowance for doubtful accounts will be established through a provision reducing the carrying value of receivables. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, management did not believe an allowance for doubtful accounts was necessary. The Company has not incurred any losses from uncollectible accounts receivable to date.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories consist of raw materials, work in progress and finished goods, which includes all direct material, labor and other overhead costs, and purchased components. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Inventories also included finished goods and purchased components under the Company’s “early adopter” program of $26,412 at September 30, 2017.

 

Cost of Sales

 

Cost of sales includes salaries, benefits, raw materials, packaging, overhead, and other direct and indirect costs incurred to manufacture the Company’s alltemp® refrigerants at the Company’s Roseburg, Oregon facility, and to deliver the refrigerant to the customer’s facility and install it to the customer’s specifications. During the year ended December 31, 2016, prior to the commencement of revenue generating operations, such costs were classified as research and development costs.

 

Selling Expenses

 

Selling expenses consist of commissions, advertising, marketing, conferences, travel and other similar costs incurred to market the Company’s alltemp® refrigerants, as well as costs incurred under the Company’s “early adopter” program (see “Revenue Recognition” above).

 

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

Components of comprehensive income or loss, including net income or loss, are reported in the financial statements in the period in which they are recognized. Comprehensive income or loss is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. Net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss) are reported net of any related tax effect to arrive at comprehensive income (loss). The Company did not have any items of comprehensive income (loss) for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

The Company’s computation of earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) includes basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the income (loss) attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible notes payable, warrants and stock options) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

 

Loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the respective periods. Basic and diluted loss per common share is the same for all periods presented because all preferred shares, warrants and stock options outstanding are anti-dilutive.

 

Weighted average common shares outstanding has been retroactively restated for the equivalent number of shares received by the accounting acquirer as a result of the reverse merger as if these shares had been outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest period presented.

 

At September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company excluded the outstanding securities summarized below, which entitle the holders thereof to acquire shares of common stock, from its calculation of earnings per share, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

 

   September 30, 
   2017   2016 
         
8% convertible note payable   532,687     
Common stock options   33,961,250    21,307,500 
Common stock warrants   18,409,680     
Total   52,903,617    21,307,500 

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The authoritative guidance with respect to fair value established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels, and requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of three categories, as presented below. Disclosure as to transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2, and activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, is also required.

 

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for an identical asset or liability that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 1 inputs include active-exchange traded securities and exchange-based derivatives.

 

Level 2. Inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, which are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 2 inputs include fixed income securities, non-exchange based derivatives, mutual funds, and fair-value hedges.

 

Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data for the asset or liability which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 3 inputs include infrequently-traded non-exchange-based derivatives and commingled investment funds, and are measured using present value pricing models.

 

The Company determines the level in the fair value hierarchy within which each fair value measurement falls in its entirety, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. In determining the appropriate levels, the Company performs an analysis of the assets and liabilities at each reporting period end.

 

The carrying value of financial instruments (consisting of cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses) is considered to be representative of their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of those instruments.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Major improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Gains and losses from disposition of property and equipment are included in income and expense when realized. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

 

Plant equipment 5 years
Computer equipment 5 years
Furniture and fixtures 7 years

 

  13 

 

 

The Company recognizes depreciation costs in manufacturing costs, selling, general and administrative costs, and research and development costs in the Company’s statements of operations. Maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the useful life of the respective assets are expensed.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company reviews long-lived assets, consisting primarily of property and equipment, for impairment at each fiscal year end or when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of these assets may exceed their current fair values. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. The Company has not historically recorded any impairment to its long-lived assets. In the future, if events or market conditions affect the estimated fair value to the extent that a long-lived asset is impaired, the Company will adjust the carrying value of these long-lived assets in the period in which the impairment occurs. As of September 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, the Company had not deemed any long-lived assets as impaired, and was not aware of the existence of any indicators of impairment at such dates.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 will eliminate transaction- and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current GAAP and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 will require that companies recognize revenue based on the value of transferred goods or services as they occur in the contract. ASU 2014-09 also will require additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. The FASB has issued ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10, ASU 2016-11, ASU 2016-12, and ASU 2016-20, all of which clarify certain implementation guidance within ASU 2014-09. ASU 2014-09 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. Entities will be able to transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company will adopt the provisions of ASU 2014-09 in the quarter beginning January 1, 2018. Management is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 and has not determined its effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842)(“ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months, as well as the disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 requires recognition in the statement of operations of a single lease cost, calculated so that the cost of the lease is allocated over the lease term, generally on a straight-line basis. ASU 2016-02 requires classification of all cash payments within operating activities in the statement of cash flows. Disclosures are required to provide the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. The Company will adopt the provisions of ASU 2016-02 in the quarter beginning January 1, 2019. The Company generally does not finance purchases of property and equipment, but does lease its operating facilities. While the Company is continuing to assess the potential impact of ASU 2016-02, it currently expects that most of its lease commitments will be subject to ASU 2016-02 and accordingly, upon adoption will be recognized as lease liabilities and right-of-use assets in the Company’s balance sheet.

 

In July 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features; (Part II) Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception (“ASU 2017-11”). ASU 2017-11 allows companies to exclude a down round feature when determining whether a financial instrument (or embedded conversion feature) is considered indexed to the entity’s own stock. As a result, financial instruments (or embedded conversion features) with down round features may no longer be required to be accounted for as derivative liabilities. A company will recognize the value of a down round feature only when it is triggered and the strike price has been adjusted downward. For equity-classified freestanding financial instruments, an entity will treat the value of the effect of the down round as a dividend and a reduction of income available to common shareholders in computing basic earnings per share. For convertible instruments with embedded conversion features containing down round provisions, entities will recognize the value of the down round as a beneficial conversion discount to be amortized to earnings. ASU 2017-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance in ASU 2017-11 can be applied using a full or modified retrospective approach. The adoption of ASU 2017-11 is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, authoritative guidance, if currently adopted, would have a material impact on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.

 

3. Agreement and Plan of Merger

 

On April 27, 2017, pursuant to a Merger Agreement dated as of January 24, 2017 by and among Alltemp (formerly Source Financial, Inc.) and CSES, Alltemp issued 127,045,969 shares of its common stock, constituting approximately 76.6% of the total shares of common stock of Alltemp outstanding upon consummation of the Merger, in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of CSES. As a result of the Merger, CSES became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alltemp. The terms of the transaction were determined through arm’s-length negotiations between Alltemp and CSES.

 

Additionally, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, holders of options to purchase 3,000,000 shares of CSES common stock, constituting all outstanding CSES common stock options, received options to purchase 31,961,250 shares of Alltemp common stock, and holders of warrants to purchase 1,728,000 shares of CSES common stock, constituting all outstanding CSES common stock warrants, received warrants to purchase 18,409,680 shares of Alltemp common stock. At the consummation of the Merger, all stock options and warrants of Alltemp were cancelled, and all shares of Series C Preferred Stock outstanding were converted into shares of Alltemp common stock.

 

As conditions precedent to the Merger, five Alltemp convertible notes payable, with an aggregate principal amount of $350,000, plus aggregate accrued interest of $9,513, were converted into 5,892,827 shares of Alltemp common stock. In addition, 20,404,000 shares of Alltemp common stock were issued pursuant to a consulting agreement in full settlement of amounts owed to the consultant for services rendered.

 

Alltemp had a total of 165,852,317 shares of common stock issued and outstanding immediately after giving effect to the Merger and the related conditions precedent on April 27, 2017. On such date, the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to the Merger owned 38,806,348 shares of common stock (consisting of 12,509,521 shares owned by the Alltemp common shareholders and former Alltemp preferred shareholders, 5,892,827 shares owned by the former holders of Alltemp convertible notes payable, and 20,404,000 shares issued pursuant to a consulting agreement), equivalent to approximately 23.4% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, as a result of which the Company is controlled subsequent to April 27, 2017 by the former stockholders of CSES.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2017, an additional 996 shares of common stock were recorded as having been issued in connection with the reverse merger transaction, with 9 shares to existing shareholders and 987 shares pursuant to a consulting agreement with an Alltemp consultant.

 

A summary of the current assets that were acquired and current liabilities assumed in the reverse merger transaction is as follows:

 

Current assets:    
Advances and prepaid expenses  $20,049 
Total current assets   20,049 
      
Current liabilities:     
Accounts payable   23,034 
Due to former management   7,895 
Notes payable   8,000 
Accrued interest on notes payable   1,054 
Total current liabilities   39,983 
      
Net current assets (liabilities)  $(19,934)

 

Prior to the consummation of the Merger, on September 20, 2016, in connection with the entry into a binding Memorandum of Understanding between Alltemp and CSES, Alltemp provided a bridge loan aggregating $250,000 to CSES during 2016 bearing interest at the rate of 10% per annum, which was outstanding, including accrued interest of $15,181, on the closing date of the reverse merger transaction. Upon completion of the closing of the reverse merger transaction, the elimination of the bridge loan and accrued interest aggregating $265,181, less the net current liabilities assumed of $19,934, has been treated as an increase to additional paid-in capital of $245,247 at the date of the reverse merger.

Testing of this production line began in late July 2017 and operations are expected to commence by the end of the fourth quarter of 2017.

 

Depreciation expense for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 is included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations as follows:

 

   Three Months Ended   Nine Months Ended 
   September 30,   September 30, 
   2017   2016   2017   2016

The Company began its manufacturing activity in early 2017. Through December 31, 2016, depreciation expense related to research and development activities with respect to Company’s alltemp® refrigerants.

 

At September 30, 2017, fixed assets totaling $93,240 were retroactively reclassified from plant equipment to construction in process.

 

6. Notes Payable

 

8% Convertible Promissory Note Payable

 

On August 5, 2016, CSES issued an unsecured 8% Convertible Promissory Note (the “8% Note”) in the principal amount of $100,000 to an accredited investor. The 8% Note became due and payable in full on its one year anniversary date of August 5, 2017 and is therefore considered a current demand note payable at September 30, 2017. The 8% Note was originally convertible at any time into shares of CSES common stock at a price per share of $2.00, equivalent to 50,000 shares of CSES common stock. In connection with the Merger, the 8% Note became convertible at $0.1877 per share into 532,687 shares of Alltemp common stock. As of December 31, 2016, the 8% Note had a total balance due of $103,290, including accrued interest of $3,290. As of September 30, 2017, the 8% Note had a total balance due of $109,301, including accrued interest of $9,301. Interest expense charged to operations with respect to the 8% Note during the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017 was $2,016 and $6,011, respectively.

10% Demand Convertible Promissory Note Payable to Related Party

 

On September 20, 2016, the Company entered into a Binding Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with Alltemp, whereby CSES and Alltemp agreed to cause a merger of CSES with Alltemp, and Alltemp agreed to provide certain financial accommodations and services to the CSES. Pursuant to the terms of the MOU, CSES issued an unsecured 10% Demand Convertible Promissory Note (the “10% Note”) in favor of Alltemp for a total principal amount of $250,000, which CSES received during the year ended December 31, 2016. The 10% Note became convertible at $0.0704 per share (originally $0.75 per share) as a result of the reverse merger transaction, and accrued interest at a rate of 10% per annum. Interest expense charged to operations on the 10% Note during the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017 was $0 and $9,515, respectively.

 

As the conversion price of $0.0704 reflected a price discount below the fair market value of CSES common stock, which was determined to be $0.1877 per share as of the date of the Note, there was deemed a beneficial conversion feature of $250,000 associated with the 10% Note. As such, CSES recorded a charge of $250,000 to additional paid-in capital and as a note discount, representing the fair value of the beneficial conversion feature at the date of issuance of the 10% Note. The note discount was amortized as additional interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the 10% Note. The unamortized portion of the note discount at December 31, 2016 was $58,250. As of December 31, 2016, the 10% Note consisted of principal of $250,000, plus accrued interest of $5,666, less unamortized note discount of $58,250. The amortization of note discount charged to operations as additional interest expense was $0 and $58,250 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively.

 

Information with respect to the accounting treatment of the 10% Note to Alltemp as a result of the completion of the reverse merger transaction effective April 27, 2017 is provided at Note 3.

 

7. Related Party Transactions

 

The Company leases its research and development, manufacturing and distribution facility, located in Roseburg, Oregon, under a Commercial Sublease Agreement dated July 1, 2015 (the “Sublease”) from a major shareholder who is also the Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors. The Sublease provides for a term of one year, with automatic renewal periods of one year unless either party provides written notice of its intent not to renew, and provides for a monthly payment of $12,000.

9. Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company may periodically issue common stock options to members of the Board of Directors, officers, employees and consultants for services rendered. Options will vest and expire according to terms established at the issuance date of each grant.

 

In June 2015, the Board of Directors of CSES approved the 2015 Stock Option Plan For Directors, Executive Officers, and Employees of Key Consultants (the “Plan”), which is administered by the Company’s Board of Directors or a committee thereof (the “Administrator”) as set forth in the Plan. The Plan provides for the granting of up to 31,961,250 stock options to employees, directors (including non-employee directors) and key consultants. Grants under the Plan vest and expire based on periods determined by the Administrator, but in no event can the expiration date be later than ten years from the date of grant (five years after the date of grant if the grant is an incentive stock option to an employee who owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of the Company’s capital stock (a “10% owner”). Grants of stock options may be either incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options. The per share exercise price on an option, other than with respect to substitute awards, shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date the option is granted (110% of the fair market value if the grant is to a 10% owner). As of September 30, 2017, unexpired stock options for 33,961,250 shares were issued and outstanding under the 2015 Plan and no further stock options were available for issuance under the 2015 Plan.

 

On June 15, 2015, CSES granted stock options pursuant to the Plan to three employees to purchased 21,307,500 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.2084 per share, vesting over twelve months from date of grant, and expiring of two years from vesting date. The fair value of these stock options, as calculated pursuant to the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, was determined to be $2,364,005 ($0.1109 per share) on the grant date, which was charged to operations ratably from June 15, 2015 through June 15, 2016. During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded a total charge to operations of $0 and $1,075,564, respectively, with respect to these stock options.

 

On December 1, 2016, CSES granted stock options pursuant to the Plan to a consultant in connection with an Advisory Agreement to purchase 10,653,750 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.1877 per share, vesting twelve months from the date of grant on December 1, 2017, and expiring two years from the vesting date. The fair value of these stock options, as calculated pursuant to the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, was determined to be $1,638,782 ($0.1538 per share) on the grant date, which is being charged to operations ratably from December 1, 2016 through December 1, 2017 based on the fair value of the stock options at the end of each reporting period. On September 18, 2017, the Advisory Agreement was amended such that the stock options will vest eighteen months from the date of grant on June 1, 2018, and will expire two years from the vesting date. The Company has revised its accounting for the amortization of the fair value of such stock options over the vesting period accordingly. At September 30, 2017, the remaining unamortized fair value of these stock options was $3,402,845 ($0.7160 per share). During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recorded a total charge to operations of $1,059,040 and $4,090,964, respectively, with respect to these stock options. Additional information with respect to the Advisory Agreement is provided at Note 10.

 

On August 31, 2017, the Company entered into an Advisory Agreement with Jon Vein for a period of one year to assist the Company in establishing marketing and distribution channels for the Company’s alltemp® refrigerant products, as well as with strategic corporate planning. The Advisory Agreement will automatically renew for additional terms of one year until terminated by either party upon 30 days advance written notice to the other party. The Advisory Agreement provided for the Company to grant a stock option, in the form of a warrant, for 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to the average daily closing price of the Company’s common stock calculated over a thirty-day period commencing on August 31, 2017 ($0.77682 per share), vesting quarterly over the two-year period from the date of grant, and expiring five years from date of grant. The fair value of these stock options, as calculated pursuant to the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, was determined to be $1,110,800 ($0.5554 per share) on the grant date, which is being charged to operations ratably from August 31, 2017 through August 31, 2019 based on the fair value of the stock options at the end of each reporting period. At September 30 2017, the remaining unamortized fair value of these stock options was $1,343,637 ($0.7019 per share). During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recorded a total charge to operations of $60,183 with respect to these stock options.

 

The fair value of each stock option awarded is estimated on the date of grant and subsequent measurement dates using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The expected dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s expectation of dividend payouts. Prior to the April 27, 2017 merger date, expected volatilities were based on an average historical stock price volatility of comparable public companies that were deemed to be representative of future stock price trends, as the Company did not have any trading history for its own common stock. Since the merger date, volatilities are based on historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. treasury yield curve in effect as of the grant date. The expected life of the stock options is their full contractual term.

 

The stock options issued by CSES in 2015 and 2016 were converted into stock options of Alltemp at the closing of the reverse merger transaction on April 27, 2017.

Expected volatility   120% to 132%
Expected life   2.4 to 5.0 years

Expected dividend yield   0%
Expected volatility   98%
Expected life   3.0 years 

 

Total stock-based compensation expense was $1,119,223 and $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Total stock-based compensation expense was $4,151,147 and $1,075,564 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

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

 

Reverse Merger

 

On January 24, 2017, Alltemp, Inc. (“Alltemp”), a Delaware corporation, CSES Group, Inc. (“CSES”), a Nevada corporation, and CSES Acquisition, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), a Nevada corporation, executed an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) that provided for Merger Sub to be merged into CSES (the “Merger”), with each outstanding share of common stock of CSES to be converted into 10.65375 shares of Alltemp’s common stock (the “Exchange Ratio”), and each outstanding warrant and stock option to purchase shares of CSES common stock to be cancelled in exchange for a warrant or stock option to purchase shares of Alltemp’s common stock based on the Exchange Ratio.

 

On April 21, 2017, in connection with the Merger, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation was amended to change the Company’s name to Alltemp, Inc. from Source Financial, Inc. and to increase the Company’s authorized shares to 500,000,000 shares of common stock (par value $0.001 per share) and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock (par value $0.01 per share).

 

On April 27, 2017, the consummation of the Merger was effective and CSES became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alltemp. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company (1) issued to the shareholders of CSES an aggregate of 127,045,969 shares of the Company’s common stock; (2) issued to the holders of warrants to purchase CSES common stock, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 18,409,680 shares of the Company’s common stock; (3) issued to the holders of stock options to purchase CSES common stock, stock options to purchase an aggregate of 31,961,200 shares of the Company’s common stock; and (4) issued to the holder of a convertible note of CSES, a promissory note of the Company in the principal amount of $100,000, convertible into 535,681 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Series C Preferred Stock of Alltemp had previously been converted into common stock, and all stock options and warrants of Alltemp were cancelled at the consummation of the

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2017, an additional 996 shares of common stock were recorded as having been issued in connection with the reverse merger transaction, with 9 shares to existing shareholders and 987 shares pursuant to a consulting agreement with an Alltemp consultant.

 

For financial reporting purposes, CSES was considered the accounting acquirer in the transaction and the merger was accounted for as a reverse merger. Accordingly, the historical financial statements presented herein are those of CSES and do not include the historical financial results of Alltemp through April 27, 2017. The stockholders’ equity section of Alltemp’s balance sheet has been retroactively restated for all periods presented to reflect the accounting effect of the reverse merger transaction. The net loss per share and weighted average common shares outstanding also reflect the retroactive restatement for all periods presented. All costs associated with the reverse merger transaction were expensed as incurred. Unless the context indicates otherwise, Alltemp and CSES are hereinafter referred to as the “Company”.

 

As a result of the Merger, the former stockholders of CSES owned approximately 76.6% of Alltemp’s outstanding shares of common stock immediately following the consummation of the Merger, reflecting effective control at the closing of the transaction. In addition, CSES management and board members became the management and board members of Alltemp at the closing of the transaction. Accordingly, for legal purposes Alltemp was the legal acquirer and CSES was the legal acquiree, but for accounting purposes, CSES was the accounting acquirer and Alltemp was the accounting acquiree.

 

Overview of Business Operations

 

CSES was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 12, 2015 for the purpose of commercializing refrigerants under the name alltemp®.

 

CSES develops, markets and sells commercial refrigerants that are marketed under the name alltemp® as a replacement for HCFC-22, better known as R-22, which is a commonly used refrigerant, as well as R-134a and R-404a. R-22 is being phased out in developed countries due to environmental concerns over its effect on the depletion of the Earths ozone layer. alltemp® refrigerants, with various formulations classified as L, M, 4 and H, have broad applications in heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, refrigeration, foam insulation, and industrial solvents.

 

The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including the need for additional capital, as described herein. The Company has not yet developed sustainable revenue-generating operations, is in the process of developing a new expanded production line to support an increase in operations, does not have positive cash flows from operations, and is dependent on periodic infusions of debt and equity capital to fund its operating requirements.

 

The Company’s common stock is traded on the OTCQB operated by the OTC Markets under the symbol “LTMP”.

Going Concern

 

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been presented on the basis that the Company is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has had nominal recurring sources of revenue to date, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company incurred a net loss of $5,956,919 and used cash in operations of $1,814,478. Additionally, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $9,785,660 as of September 30, 2017. The Company has financed its working capital requirements since inception through the sale of its equity securities and borrowings.

 

At September 30, 2017, the Company had cash of $1,512,395, which management believes is sufficient to fund the Company’s business operations through approximately March 31, 2018. Management is currently seeking to raise additional funds, primarily through the issuance of debt or equity securities, and estimates that a significant amount of capital will be necessary to advance the development of its business to the point at which it will become commercially viable and self-sustaining.

 

As a result, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements are being issued. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in their report on the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016, has also expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional funds and implement its business plan, and to ultimately achieve sustainable operating revenues and profitability. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

As market conditions present uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to secure additional funds, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to secure additional financing on acceptable terms, or at all, as and when necessary to continue to conduct operations. Such financing may contain undue restrictions on the Company’s operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for the Company’s stockholders, in case of equity financing. If cash resources are insufficient to satisfy the Company’s ongoing cash requirements, the Company would be required to scale back or discontinue its operations, or obtain funds, if available (although there can be no certainty), through strategic alliances that may require the Company to relinquish rights to its technology, or to discontinue its operations entirely.

 

The amount and timing of future cash requirements in 2018 and thereafter will depend on the capital resources required to develop and expand the Company’s business. No assurances can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Information with respect to recent accounting pronouncements is provided at Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 included elsewhere in this document.

 

Concentration of Risk

 

The Company maintains cash balances with financial institutions in federally-insured accounts. The Company may periodically have cash balances in banks in excess of FDIC insurance limits. The Company maintains its accounts with financial institutions with high credit ratings. The Company has not experienced any losses to date resulting from this practice.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2017, 85% of the Company’s revenues were derived from four customers. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, 74% of the Company’s revenues were derived from four different customers.

 

During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017, shipping tanks with a total cost of $43,135 were purchased from a single supplier. During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2016, no shipping tanks were purchased. The Company believes that the single supplier will be able to meet the Company’s shipping tank requirements for the immediate future.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The Company prepared its condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management periodically evaluates the estimates and judgments made. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates as a result of different assumptions or conditions.

 

The following critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

  23 

 

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when all four of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery of the products and/or services has occurred; (iii) the fees earned can be readily determined; and (iv) collectability of the fees is reasonably assured.

 

As part of the Company’s product commercialization efforts, the Company periodically ships product to potential customers on a review basis under an “early adopter” program. As the Company retains ownership of these products during the review period, these products are carried in inventory, at standard cost. At such time that the customer has completed evaluation of the product’s performance and has formally confirmed that it will retain and utilize the product in its HVAC system, revenues from such arrangements will be recorded on a cost recovery basis, without interest, which are generally expected within one year of such installation. The Company does not recognize any revenues until all of the Company’s costs have been recovered. Costs under this program are charged to selling, general and administrative costs. The Company reviews the status of such products at each quarter end and records a loss for any products for which it does not expect to recover its costs. During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recognized revenues of $0 and $12,025, respectively, under the early adopter program. The Company did not recognize any revenues under the early adopter program during the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2016.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company may periodically issue common stock options to members of the Board of Directors, officers, employees and consultants for services rendered. Options will vest and expire according to terms established at the issuance date of each grant.

 

The Company accounts for stock-based payments to officers, employees and directors by measuring the cost of services received in exchange for equity awards based on the grant date fair value of the awards, with the cost recognized as compensation expense on the straight-line basis in the Company’s financial statements over the vesting period of the awards. The Company accounts for stock-based payments to consultants by determining the value of the stock compensation based upon the measurement date at either (a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached or (b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete.

 

Stock options granted to outside consultants are revalued each reporting period to determine the amount to be recorded as an expense in the respective period. As the stock options vest, they are valued on each vesting date and an adjustment is recorded for the difference between the value already recorded and the value on the date of vesting.

 

The fair value of stock options granted as stock-based compensation is determined utilizing the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and is affected by several variables, the most significant of which are the life of the equity award, the exercise price of the stock option as compared to the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date, and the estimated volatility of the common stock over the term of the equity award. Prior to the April 27, 2017 reverse merger date, expected volatilities were based on an average historical stock price volatility of comparable public companies that were deemed to be representative of future stock price trends, as the Company did not have a trading history for its own common stock. Since the reverse merger date, volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The fair market value of common stock is determined by reference to the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock.

 

The Company recognizes the fair value of stock-based compensation awards in selling, general and administrative costs and in research and development costs, as appropriate, in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations. The Company issues new shares of common stock to satisfy stock option exercises.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Accordingly, the Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities.

 

The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. In the event the Company was to determine that it would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future in excess of its recorded amount, an adjustment to the deferred tax assets would be credited to operations in the period such determination was made. Likewise, should the Company determine that it would not be able to realize all or part of its deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax assets would be charged to operations in the period such determination was made.

Plan of Operation

 

The Company has developed a refrigerant technology known as alltemp®, which is a replacement for many refrigerants that have been shown to have a detrimental effect on the global environment. alltemp® refrigerants are environmentally friendly, sustainable and cost-efficient energy solutions for the residential and commercial marketplace. alltemp® refrigerants, with various formulations classified as L, M, 4 and H, have broad applications in HVAC systems, refrigeration, foam insulation, and industrial solvents. alltemp® is a solution for replacement of HCFC-22, better known as R-22, which is a commonly used refrigerant, as well as R-134a, R-404A and R-404C. R-22 and several other mainstream Hydrofluorocarbon (“HFC”) refrigerants are being phased out in many developed countries due to environmental concerns over its effect on the depletion of the Earths ozone layer and contribution to greenhouse gas emissions resulting in global warming.

 

The continuing reduction in the availability of R-22, specifically, has created a shortage of replacement refrigerants for a multibillion dollar base of existing refrigeration and HVAC equipment. Refrigeration is the backbone of the worlds food supply, with 70% of food in the United States being refrigerated at some point between farm and table. Additionally, air conditioning has become an expected norm in most developed countries, with more than 81 million units sold annually. In emerging markets, the trend is even more pronounced and accelerating.

 

As of January 1, 2010, production and import for new equipment containing R-22 was prohibited. However, an exception allowed Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs”) to continue to manufacture and ship R-22 equipment as long as it was not pre-charged or loaded with R-22 refrigerant at the manufacturers facility. This provision contributed to a further increase in demand for R-22. Commencing January 1, 2020, no virgin R-22 may be produced or imported, and equipment owners will be forced to rely solely on reclaimed or recycled R-22 for their ongoing servicing needs. The consequences of Environmental Protection Agency regulation have led to volatile price swings for R-22 as it continues to become more expensive and has left equipment owners and servicers having to rely on the limited remaining sources of R-22, or reliable alternatives, for ongoing equipment servicing needs.

 

The market potential for alltemp® is global as an R-22 replacement and as a replacement for many other commonly used refrigerants. alltemp® meets the needs of developed countries in satisfying initiatives like the Montreal Protocol, as well as offering developing countries a more efficient and environmentally sustainable alternative. In the United Kingdom and European Union, implementation of the Montreal Protocol has been more aggressive than in the United States and Canada in phasing out R-22. Between 2000 and 2004, the European Union prohibited the production and import of new equipment containing R-22. Beginning January 1, 2010, only recycled and reclaimed R-22 could be used to service existing equipment; culminating in a complete ban on the use of R-22 for ongoing service needs effective January 1, 2015.

 

As the global phase out of R-22 and other environmentally detrimental refrigerants accelerates, decisions must be addressed — to replace an entire R-22 plant with new system hardware or replace R-22 with an alternative refrigerant that is legally compliant. This issue affects everyone from the homeowner who must replace a faulty air conditioner to the multi-national corporation with operations across all continents and millions of dollars in equipment investment that is dependent on R-22. The first alternative may not be feasible for a large-scale plant and is also the most expensive, particularly when existing infrastructure may have several more working years of useful life remaining. The second option is the economically preferred choice when a viable R-22 alternative is available and can generally match current system performance, or in many cases, will at least have minimum system degradation.

 

In summary, the Company is positioned to capitalize on the continued servicing demand for R-22 with its alltemp® product, while also satisfying the global mandate for an environmentally sustainable alternative. alltemp® also has an additional competitive advantage, as it can be utilized as a replacement for many other refrigerants in new equipment designed and marketed to replace R-22 equipment.

 

The Company has chosen a multi-prong approach to develop sustainable revenue streams, increase brand awareness, and capture market share. The Company believes that alltemp® is a superior environmental solution for replacement of R-22 and many other historic and emerging HFC refrigerant formulations like R-404A and R-410A, as the performance and efficiency attributes of alltemp® exceed existing R-22 alternatives in the marketplace today.

 

The Company’s marketing focus is to create broad industry awareness of the alltemp® product and its economic and environmental benefits. The Company is also actively working to build efficient distribution chains to reach OEMs, wholesalers, contractors and service personnel responsible for selection and maintenance of a given refrigerant for servicing existing plant and equipment. The Company recently entered the marketplace with alltemp® on a commercial scale. Beta site installations and key discussions with service technicians and distributors have begun throughout the United States and abroad. Case studies in the field have been documented proving the efficacy of alltemp® under the Company’s Early Adopter Program (see “Revenue Recognition” above).

 

The Company’s business is at an early stage of commercialization. Accordingly, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional capital to fund its business development activities and to ultimately achieve sustainable operating revenues and profitability. There can be no assurances that the Company’s business will be able to generate sustainable operating revenues in the next few years. Furthermore, even if the Company does develop sustainable operating revenues, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve positive earnings and operating cash flows.

Results of Operations

 

At September 30, 2017, the Company was in the process of constructing a new expanded production line at the Company’s manufacturing facility in Roseburg, Oregon. Testing of this production line began in late July 2017, and operations are expected to commence by the end of the fourth quarter of 2017.

 

The Company has not yet developed sustainable revenue-generating operations, does not have positive cash flows from operations, and is dependent on periodic infusions of debt and equity capital to fund its operating requirements.

 

The Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations as discussed herein are presented below.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016

 

Revenues. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, revenues were $56,057, reflecting the recent commencement of revenue generating operations in 2017. The Company did not have any revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

 

As part of the Company’s product commercialization efforts, the Company periodically ships product to potential customers on a review basis under an “early adopter” program. As the Company retains ownership of these products during the review period, these products are carried in inventory, at standard cost. At such time that the customer has completed evaluation of the product’s performance and has formally confirmed that it will retain and utilize the product in its HVAC system, revenues from such arrangements will be recorded on a cost recovery basis, without interest, which are generally expected within one year of such installation. The Company does not recognize any revenues until all of the Company’s costs have been recovered. Costs under this program are charged to selling, general and administrative costs. The Company reviews the status of such products at each quarter end and records a loss for any products for which it does not expect to recover its costs. During the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company did not recognize any revenues under the early adopter program.

 

Cost of Sales. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, cost of sales was $62,825. The Company did not have any cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

 

Cost of sales includes the salaries, benefits, raw materials, packaging, overhead, and other direct and indirect costs required to manufacture the Company’s alltemp® refrigerants at the Company’s Roseburg, Oregon facility, and to deliver the refrigerant to the customer’s facility and install it to the customer specifications. Prior to the commencement of revenue generating operations in 2017, such costs were attributed to the research and development of the product. The Company generated a negative gross margin on sales for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The Company’s refrigerants involve new and technologically complex materials and processes. As the Company moves from making small quantities of its refrigerants to larger quantities for commercial distribution, the Company will be developing new manufacturing techniques and processes that are expected to scale production. The Company is currently experiencing low yields on its manufacturing process, but it is implementing manufacturing improvements that are expected to improve manufacturing yields. The Company’s objective is to develop a production facility that is capable of producing 1,000,000 pounds per month of alltemp® refrigerants.

Gross Profit (Loss). For the three months ended September 30, 2017, gross loss was a $(6,768), or (12.1)% of revenues. The Company did not have any gross profit (loss) for the three months ended September 30, 2016.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Costs. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, selling, general and administrative costs were $1,663,397, which consisted of the fair value of stock options issued to a consultant of $1,119,223, salaries and related costs of $212,522, consulting and professional fees of $209,897, insurance expense of $22,811, advertising and marketing costs of $61,421 (including $0 attributable to the early adopter program), rent expense of $11,532, and other operating costs of $25,991.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, selling, general and administrative costs were $7,439, which consisted of consulting and professional fees of $240, advertising and marketing costs of $3,976 (all of which is attributable to the early adopter program), and other operating costs of $3,223.

 

Selling, general and administrative costs increased by $1,655,958 in 2017 as compared to 2016, primarily as a result of an increase of $1,119,223 in the fair value of stock options issued to officers and a consultant, $209,897 in salaries and related costs, $212,282 in consulting and professional fees, and advertising and marketing costs of $57,445 (including a decrease of $3,976 attributable to the early adopter program).

 

As part of the Company’s product commercialization efforts, the Company periodically ships product to potential customers on a review basis under an early adopter program (see “Revenues” above). Costs with respect to the early adopter program are included in selling, general and administrative costs.

 

The increase in the fair value of stock options issued to officers and a consultant of $1,119,223 in 2017 as compared to 2016 was due to a charge to operations for the fair value of vesting stock options previously granted to a consultant on December 1, 2016. The increase in consulting and professional fees was principally due to fees incurred in connection with the Company’s reverse merger transaction effective April 27, 2017. The increase in salaries and related costs, advertising and marketing costs, insurance expense, and other operating costs was due primarily to the Company’s increasing efforts to market and commercialize its alltemp® refrigerants. The Company expects that general and administrative costs will continue to increase during the remainder of 2017 as compared to 2016 as a result of the Company incurring the higher legal, accounting, investor relations, insurance, compliance and administrative costs associated with being a public company.

 

Research and Development Costs. For the three months ended September 30, 2017, research and development costs were $94,992, which consisted of internal research and development activities of $22,779, testing and monitoring of $68,760, and other costs of $3,453.

Net Loss. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company incurred a net loss of $5,956,919, as compared to a net loss of $1,589,259 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources – September 30, 2017

 

At September 30, 2017, the Company had working capital of $1,405,879, as compared to working capital of $2,943,365 at December 31, 2016, a decrease in working capital of $1,537,486 during the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The decrease in working capital during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was primarily the result of amounts being utilized to fund the Company’s business commercialization and revenue development efforts, as well as to fund its ongoing research and development and general and administrative expenses.

 

At September 30, 2017, the Company had cash of $1,512,395, which management believes is sufficient to fund the Company’s business operations through approximately March 31, 2018. Management is currently seeking to raise additional funds, primarily through the issuance of debt or equity securities, and estimates that a significant amount of capital will be necessary to advance the development of its business to the point at which it will become commercially viable and self-sustaining.

 

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has had nominal recurring sources of revenue to date, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company incurred a net loss of $5,956,919 and used cash in operations of $1,814,478. Additionally, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $9,785,660 as of September 30, 2017. The Company has financed its working capital requirements since inception through the sale of its equity securities and borrowings.

 

As a result, management has concluded that there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in their report on the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016, has also expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern (see “Going Concern”) above.

 

Operating Activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, operating activities utilized cash of $1,814,478, as compared to utilizing cash of $342,198 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, to fund the Company’s revenue development efforts and to fund the Company’s ongoing operating expenses.

 

Investing Activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, investing activities consisted of $120,842 expended for the acquisition of equipment, including $81,519 relating to the development and expansion of the Company’s production facility. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, investing activities consisted of $53,874 expended for the acquisition of equipment, including $24,672 relating to the development and expansion of the Company’s production facility.

 

Financing Activities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, financing activities consisted of $180,000 of proceeds from the sale of 767,070 units under the private placement of the Company’s equity securities commenced in late 2016, payments on insurance premium financing obligations of $40,917, and payments of other notes payable of $9,332. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, financing activities consisted of the receipt of $100,000 of proceeds from the sale of 532,688 shares of the Company’s common stock, receipt of $300,000 from the proceeds of two convertible notes payable, and a $3,000 advance received from an officer of the Company.

 

Principal Commitments

 

The Company leases its research and development, manufacturing and distribution facility, located in Roseburg, Oregon, under a Commercial Sublease Agreement dated July 1, 2015 (the “Sublease”) from a major shareholder who is also the Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors. The Sublease provides for a term of one year, with automatic renewal periods of one year unless either party provides written notice of its intent not to renew, and provides for a monthly payment of $12,000. In July 2016 and July 2017, the Sublease was automatically extended for additional periods of one year, respectively.

 

Effective January 1, 2016, the Company entered into a Statement of Work (“SOW”) with Kawasaki Consulting, Inc. for quantitative consulting, statistical analysis and forecasting, project management, analytic reporting services, and data management. The SOW provides for a monthly cash fee of $15,000 for a period of three years through December 31, 2018.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, consisting of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, consisting of its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, consisting of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

The Company effected a reverse merger transaction effective April 27, 2017, as a result of which the business, operations, Board of Directors and executive management of the Company changed. Current management, which had only been in place approximately five months at the September 30, 2017 quarter end, has been focusing on developing controls and procedures that are adequate to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, consisting of its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Current management has instituted a program to put in place an accounting and financial staff and to install new accounting and internal control systems. In this regard, the Company retained a Chief Financial Officer effective July 10, 2017. The Company had not yet completed the process to establish adequate internal controls over financial reporting.

 

The Company’s management, consisting of its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures or its internal controls will prevent all error or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Furthermore, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

(b) Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

 

The Company’s management, consisting of its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has determined that no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rules 13(a)-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) occurred during or subsequent to the end of the period covered in this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
