CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements discuss matters that are not historical facts. Because they discuss future events or conditions, forward-looking statements may include words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “intend,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “may,” “seek,” “plan,” “might,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “predict,” “project,” “forecast,” “potential,” “continue” negatives thereof or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, are based on various underlying assumptions and current expectations about the future and are not guarantees. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievement to be materially different from the results of operations or plans expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

 

We cannot predict all of the risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, such information should not be regarded as representations that the results or conditions described in such statements or that our objectives and plans will be achieved and we do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any of these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are found at various places throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and include information concerning possible or assumed future results of our operations, including statements about potential acquisition or merger targets; business strategies; future cash flows; financing plans; plans and objectives of management; any other statements regarding future acquisitions, future cash needs, future operations, business plans and future financial results, and any other statements that are not historical facts.

 

These forward-looking statements represent our intentions, plans, expectations, assumptions and beliefs about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors. Many of those factors are outside of our control and could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by those forward-looking statements. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events described in the forward-looking statements might not occur or might occur to a different extent or at a different time than we have described. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning other matters addressed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Except to the extent required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, a change in events, conditions, circumstances or assumptions underlying such statements, or otherwise.

Notes To Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For The Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 (Unaudited)

 

(1) Organization and Business Description

 

AmpliTechGroup Inc. (“AmpliTech” or “the Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 30, 2010. On August 13, 2012, the Company acquired AmpliTech Inc., by issuing 16,675,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock to the shareholders of Amplitech Inc. in exchange for 100% of the outstanding shares of AmpliTech Inc. (“the Share Exchange”). After the Share Exchange, the selling shareholders owned 1,200,000 shares of the outstanding 17,785,000 shares of Company common stock, resulting in a change in control. Accordingly, the transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition in which AmpliTech, Inc. was deemed to be the accounting acquirer, and the operations of the Company were consolidated for accounting purposes. The capital balances have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse acquisition.

 

AmpliTech designs, engineers and assembles micro-wave component based low noise amplifiers (“LNA”) that meet individual customer specifications. Application of the Company’s proprietary technology results in maximum frequency gain with minimal background noise distortion as required by each customer. The Company has both domestic and international customers in such industries as aerospace, governmental, defense and commercial satellite.

 

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Accounting

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting.

 

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of AmpliTech Group, Inc. (“Group” or the “Company”) have been prepared by management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

 

The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017. The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes related thereto for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers deposits that can be redeemed on demand and investments that have original maturities of less than three months, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2017 the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were deposited primarily in one financial institution.

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts. The Company’s estimate is based on historical collection experience and a review of the current status of accounts receivable. It is reasonablypossible that the Company’s estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts will change in the future. An allowance of $0 has been recorded at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

 

Depreciation and Amortization

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method for financial statement purposes. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of the remaining lease term or the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740 “Income Tax”. ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of certain assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified according to the financial statement classification of the assets and liabilities generating the differences. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company has adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10-05 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”. The ASC clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. The ASC prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The ASC provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. At September 30, 2017, the Company had no material unrecognized tax benefits.

Earnings Per Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) are determined by dividing the net earnings (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares used in the basic EPS calculation plus the number of common shares that would be issued assuming conversion of all potentially dilutive securities outstanding under the treasury stock method. As of September 30, 2017 and 2016 there were 39,814,921 and 39,814,831, respectively potential dilutive shares that needed to be considered as common share equivalents. As of September 30, 2017, because of the net loss, the effect of these potential common shares is anti-dilutive for September 30, 2017.

 

Inventory Obsolescence

 

Inventory quantities and related values are analyzed at the end of each fiscal quarter to determine those items that are slow moving or obsolete. An inventory reserve is recorded for those items determined to be slow moving with a corresponding charge to cost of goods sold. Inventory items that are determined obsolete are written off currently with a corresponding charge to cost of goods sold.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenues and costs of revenues are recognized during the period in which the products are shipped. The Company applies the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605-10, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements ASC 605-10, which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation, and disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the SEC. ASC 605-10 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies. In general, the Company recognizes revenue for sale of products when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable, and (iv) the collectability is reasonably assured.

 

The Company’s sources of revenue are from the sale of various component amplifiers. Revenue is recognized upon shipment of such products. The Company offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee against defects for 90 days after the sale of their product except for a few circumstances. There are no maintenance or service contracts related to any product sale.

 

Use of Estimates

        

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make 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 amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Concentration of Credit Risk

     

Financial instruments that potentially subject the company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for potential credit losses. Therefore, management does not believe significant credit risks exist at September 30, 2017.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

       

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue From Contracts With Customers,” which changes the definitions/criteria used to determine when revenue should be recognized from being based on risks and rewards to being based on control. Among other changes, ASU 2014-09 changes the manner in which variable consideration is recognized, requires recognition of the time value of money when payment terms exceed one year, provides clarification on accounting for contract costs, and expands disclosure requirements. ASU 2014-09 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Although the Company will not complete its final assessment and quantification of the impact of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements until adoption, it expects the adoption to have the effect of accelerating the timing of revenue recognition compared to current standards for those arrangements under which the Company is producing customer-specific products without alternative use and would be entitled to payment for work completed, including a reasonable margin. The Company is still in the process of developing an estimate of the impact of the transition adjustment on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805) Clarifying the Definition of a Business (“ASU 2017-01”). The Amendments in this Update clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting, including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill, and consolidation. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those periods. Early adoption of this standard is permitted.

 

Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

        

The Company complies with the provisions of ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” ASC 820-10 relates to financial assets and financial liabilities. ASC 820-10 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of this standard apply to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and are to be applied prospectively with limited exceptions.

ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions, about market participant assumptions, that are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820-10 are described below:

 

Level 1. Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. Cash and cash equivalents are valued using inputs in Level 1.

 

Level 2. Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

 

Level 3. Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. These inputs rely on management’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The unobservable inputs are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances and may include the Company’s own data.

 

Application of Valuation Hierarchy

 

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. As such, the Company assessed that the fair value of , accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses, customer deposits, notes payable, and amounts due to officer approximate their carrying values due to their short-term nature.

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

 

The following discussion provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read along with our financial statements and notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from the results, expectations and plans discussed in these forward-looking statements.

 

Business Overview

 

We design, engineer and assemble micro-wave component based amplifiers that meet individual customer’s specifications. Our products consist of Radio Frequency (RF) amplifiers and related subsystems, operating at multiple frequencies from 50kHz to 44GHz, including Low Noise Amplifiers, Medium Power Amplifiers, oscillators, filters, and custom assembly designs. We also offer non-recurring engineering services on a project-by-project basis, for a predetermined fixed contractual amount, or on a time plus material basis.

 

Results of Operations

 

For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016

 

Revenues

 

Sales decreased by $328,427 or approximately 23.9%, when comparing sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 of $1,044,056 to sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 of $1,372,527. These results were impacted by the shift in new product demand. The company’s backlog of new orders required new engineering design and additional research and development. These new products are geared towards larger commercial markets to yield much higher revenue in the future.

 

Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Profit

 

Cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales decreased by $107,485 or 18.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2016. This decrease is directly related to the decrease in sales. This resulted in a corresponding 27.7% decrease in gross profit as a percentage of sales, or $220,986, when comparing the first nine months of 2017 gross profit of $575,986, to the first nine months of 2016 gross profit of $796,973.

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses increased from $547,048 for the first nine months of 2016 compared to $650,385 for the first nine months of 2017, an increase of $103,337 or approximately 18.9%. This increase was due to expanded marketing expenditures in an effort to increase product line exposure and client base and research and development projects. The Company also attended numerous trade shows, increased advertising in microwave journals and visited several potential customers to promote our new and existing products.

 

Income (Loss) From Operations

 

As a result of the above, the Company had a net loss from operations of $74,399 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the net income from operations of $249,925 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, an overall decrease of $324,324.

 

Other Income (Expenses)

 

Interest expense decreased from $12,890 for the first nine months of 2016 compared to $5,593 for the first nine months of 2017, a decrease of $7,297 or approximately 56.6%. The decrease was primarily due to the low balance on the Company’s line of credit.

Table of Contents

 

For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016

 

Revenues

 

Sales decreased by $437,331 or approximately 60.6%, when comparing sales for the three months ended September 30, 2017 of $284,151 to sales for the three months ended September 30, 2016 of $721,482. This decrease was directly related to fulfilling a large foreign sales order with a higher gross margin in the third quarter of 2016 and the shift in product demand for this quarter.

 

Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Profit

 

Cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales decreased by $167,774 or 54.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2016. The decrease is directly related to a decrease in production which resulted in a 65.5% decrease in gross profit as a percentage of sales, or $269,557. This decrease was directly related to fulfilling a large foreign sales order with a higher gross margin in the third quarter of 2016.

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses increased from $168,086 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $195,407 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, an increase of $27,321. The Company incurred an increase of approximately $13,000 in research and development and attended the EDI conference in Boston.

 

Income (Loss) From Operations

 

As a result of the above, the Company had net loss from operations of $53,244 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to net income from operations of $243,634 for the three months ended September 30, 2016, a decrease of $296,878.

 

Other Income (Expenses)

 

Interest expense decreased from $4,428 for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $1,189 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of $3,239. The decrease is primarily due to the low balance on the Company’s line of credit.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We have historically financed our operations by the issuance of debt from third party lenders, notes issued to various private individuals and personal funds advanced from time to time by the majority shareholder, who is also the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

 

As of September 30, 2017, we had $235,879 in cash and cash equivalents compared to $283,660 in cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2016. As of December 31, 2016 and September 30, 2017 we had working capital of $515,368 and $452,636, respectively. We had a stockholders’ equity of $597,411 and $517,419 at December 31, 2016 and September 30, 2017, respectively.

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $14,751 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, resulting primarily from the decrease in accounts receivable and accounts payable and an increase in inventory and customer deposits. Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was $2,771 used to purchase office equipment. Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was $30,259 which resulted from the repayment of the Company’s line of credit, net of advances received.

 

We intend to finance our internal growth with cash on hand, cash provided from operations, borrowings, debt or equity offerings, or some combination thereof. We believe that our cash provided from operations and cash on hand will provide sufficient working capital to fund our operations for the next twelve months.

 

Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Assumptions

 

The SEC defines critical accounting policies as those that are, in management’s view, most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and those that require significant judgments and estimates.

 

 
17
 
Table of Contents

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates including the allowance for doubtful accounts, the salability and recoverability of inventory, income taxes and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form our basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company believes there have been no significant changes during the nine month period ended September 30, 2017, to the items disclosed as critical accounting policies in management’s discussion and analysis in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

 

We cannot predict what future laws and regulations might be passed that could have a material effect on our results of operations. We assess the impact of significant changes in laws and regulations on a regular basis and update the assumptions and estimates used to prepare our financial statements when we deem it necessary.

 

Off Balance Sheet Transactions

 

None.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

 

Smaller reporting companies are not required to provide the information required by this item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report. Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

 

Based on that evaluation, as of September 30, 2017, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit 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 our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes that have affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period covered by this report.
