Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

2.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

 

Basis of Presentation - These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and are expressed in U.S. dollars.  Accordingly, they do not include all disclosures required in the annual financial statements by U.S. GAAP.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements contain all adjustments considered necessary to present fairly in all material respects the financial position as of March 31, 2015.

  

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2014, and have been prepared on a consistent basis with the accounting policies described in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.  Our accounting policies did not change in the first three months of 2015.  Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015 or any future period.

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include Dr. Pave, LLC and Dr. Pave Worldwide, LLC; both wholly-owned subsidiaries.  All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

The Company also faces certain risks and uncertainties which are present in many emerging companies regarding product development, future profitability, ability to obtain future capital, protection of patents and property rights, competition, rapid technological change, government regulations, recruiting and retaining key personnel, and third party manufacturing organizations.

 

To date we have relied exclusively on private placements with a small group of investors to finance our business and operations.  We have had little revenue since our inception.  For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $645,000 and utilized approximately $502,000 in cash flows from operating activities.  The Company had cash on hand of approximately $42,000 as of March 31, 2015.  Successful completion of the Company’s marketing program and its transition to profitable operations is dependent upon obtaining additional financing adequate to fulfill its commercialization activities, and achieve a level of revenues adequate to support the Company’s cost structure.  Many of the Company’s objectives to establish profitable business operations rely upon the occurrence of events outside its control; there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing these objectives. The Company cannot assure that additional debt, equity or other funding will be available to it on acceptable terms, if at all.  If the Company fails to obtain additional funding when needed, it would be forced to scale back, or terminate its operations, or seek to merge with or be acquired by another company.

 

Management anticipates that the Company will require significant additional funds to continue operations.  As of March 31, 2015, we had approximately $42,000 cash on hand and were spending approximately $220,000 per month, of which only a minor amount was satisfied by gross proceeds from operations.  Hence, the amount of cash on hand is not adequate to meet our operating expenses over the next twelve months.  As of May 14, 2015, the Company received cash in aggregate of $629,000 and converted a $20,000 unsecured note into the $2,000,000 senior secured debt offering issued in February.  Based upon the Company’s current financial position, the Company does not believe it will be able to satisfy the mandatory principal payments in 2015 under the $2,000,000 senior secured debt.  The Company will work with the lenders to explore extension or conversion options.  These notes are secured by all of the assets of the Company, including intellectual property rights.  If the Company defaults on the loan payments the Company’s assets may be foreclosed upon.  

 

The issues described above raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Although the Company has commenced a new $2,000,000 secured debt offering, it cannot guarantee it will be able to raise the entire offering amount, if any.  The Company is solely reliant on raising additional debt and capital in order to maintain its current operations.  To date the Company, has been able to raise debt and equity financing through the assistance of a small number of our investors who have been substantial participants in its debt and equity offerings since the Company’s formation.  If these investors choose not to assist the Company with its capital raising initiatives in the future, the Company does not expect that it would be able to obtain any alternative forms of financing at this time and the Company would not be able to continue to satisfy its current or long term obligations.  Based upon the Company’s current monthly spend the Company anticipates the need to raise at least $2,600,000 to meet its cash flow requirements for the next twelve months.  If the Company successfully raises $2,000,000 in the private debt offering, the proceeds the Company will receive and anticipated revenues from equipment sales and service performed may not be sufficient to fund the Company’s operations, including the Company’s expected capital expenditures, through the next twelve months.  Without additional funds, the Company will be required to reduce operations, curtail any future growth opportunities, cease operations all together, or seek to merge with or be acquired by another company.

 

The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be different should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Revenue Recognition - The Company sells its equipment (HWX-30 heater, HWX-30S mobile heater and HWX-AP-40 asphalt processor), as well as certain consumables to third parties.  Equipment sales revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria are satisfied:  (a) persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement exists; (b) price is fixed and determinable; (c) collectability is reasonably assured; and (d) delivery has occurred.  Persuasive evidence of an arrangement and a fixed or determinable price exist once the Company receives an order or contract from a customer.  The Company assesses collectability at the time of the sale and if collectability is not reasonably assured, the sale is deferred and not recognized until collectability is probable or payment is received.  Typically, title and risk of ownership transfer when the equipment is shipped.

 

Other revenue represents license fees and franchise fees.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - From time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification are communicated through issuance of an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”). Unless otherwise discussed, we believe that the impact of recently issued guidance, whether adopted or to be adopted in the future, is not expected to be material to our financial statements upon adoption.

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. The amendments require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). The amendments in this Update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter.

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), was issued in three parts: (a) "Summary and Amendments That Create Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and Other Assets and Deferred Costs—Contracts with Customers (Subtopic 340-40)," (b) "Conforming Amendments to Other Topics and Subtopics in the Codification and Status Tables," and (c) "Background Information and Basis for Conclusions."  The new presentation guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016.  The Company is considering the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
