1.	ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Organization and Business Description

 

Wrap Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is a publicly traded company listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the trading symbol “WRTC”. The Company is a developer of security products designed for use by law enforcement and security personnel. The Company’s first product is the BolaWrap® 100 remote restraint device that discharges an eight-foot bola style Kevlar® tether to entangle a subject at a range of 10-25 feet. The principal markets for the Company’s proprietary products are in North and South America, Europe, Middle East and Asia.

 

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

 

The Company’s unaudited interim financial statements and related notes included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with Article 8 of Regulation S-X and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The condensed balance sheet at December 31, 2019 was derived from audited financial statements but certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In management’s opinion, the accompanying statements reflect adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods indicated, and contain adequate disclosure to make the information presented not misleading. Adjustments included herein are of a normal, recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed in the footnotes. The interim financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2019. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for a full year.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions (e.g., stock-based compensation valuation, allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of inventory and intangible assets, warranty reserve, accrued costs and recognition and measurement of contingencies) that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

 

Where necessary, the prior year’s information has been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

 

Concentrations of Risk and Uncertainties

 

Credit Risk – Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consisted primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable from customers. The Company maintains its cash deposits at two domestic financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by a financial institution to the extent that cash and cash equivalents are in excess of the amount insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high-credit quality financial institutions. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses on its cash and cash equivalents.

 

Concentrations of Accounts Receivable and Revenue – The Company has recently commenced sales activities with a limited number of customers. The Company may experience concentrations in both accounts receivable and revenue due to the timing of sales and collections of related payments.

 

Concentration of Suppliers – The Company relies on a limited number of component suppliers and contract suppliers. In particular, a single supplier is currently the sole manufacturer of the Company’s laser assembly with some parts sole sourced from other suppliers. If supplier shortages occur, or quality problems arise, then production schedules could be significantly delayed or costs significantly increased, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operation and cash flows.

 

COVID-19 - In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic which continues to spread throughout the United States and the World. The Company is monitoring the outbreak of COVID-19 and the related business and travel restrictions and changes to behavior intended to reduce its spread, in addition to the impact on its employees. Due to the rapid development and fluidity of this situation, the magnitude and duration of the pandemic and its impact on the Company’s operations and liquidity is uncertain as of the date of this report. While there could ultimately be a material impact on operations and liquidity of the Company, at the time of issuance of this report, the impact could not be determined.

 

 

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company follows the fair value recognition provisions issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”) and has adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-07 for stock-based transactions with non-employees. Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2020 includes stock option and restricted stock unit compensation expense. The grant date fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The grant date is the date at which an employer and employee or non-employee reach a mutual understanding of the key terms and conditions of a stock-based payment award. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires inputs including the market price of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of grant, the term that the stock options are expected to be outstanding, the implied stock volatilities of several publicly-traded peers over the expected term of stock options, risk-free interest rate and expected dividend. Each of these inputs is subjective and generally requires significant judgment to determine. The grant date fair value of restricted stock units is based upon the market price of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of the grant. The fair value of stock-based compensation is amortized to compensation expense over the vesting term.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”) and ASC Subtopic 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs - Contracts with Customers (“ASC 340-40”), (collectively, “Topic 606”). On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Topic 606 and, as it had no prior revenue or contracts with customers, there was no transition required nor any impact on prior results. ASU 2014-09 requires entities to recognize revenue through the application of a five-step model, which includes identification of the contract, identification of the performance obligations, determination of the transaction price, allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations and recognition of revenue as the entity satisfies the performance obligations. See Note 2 for additional information.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

The Company’s policy is to evaluate the collectability of accounts receivable based on an assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts and then record an allowance for doubtful accounts to reduce the receivables to an amount that management reasonably estimates will be collected. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts recorded at December 31, 2019. At March 31, 2020 the Company established an allowance of $10,140 resulting in part from global uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 virus. Accounts that are deemed uncollectible will be written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts. If a major customer’s creditworthiness deteriorates, or actual defaults exceed our historical experience, such estimates could change and impact our future reported financial results.

 

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Prior to October 1, 2019 substantially all of the Company’s inventory was determined by the weighted average cost method which approximated the first in first out (FIFO) cost method. Effective October 1, 2019, with the change to a new computerized inventory system, the Company commenced identifying FIFO layers. The Company believes this transition change to FIFO will improve financial reporting by better reflecting the current value of inventory on the balance sheet, more closely aligning the flow of physical inventory with the accounting for the inventory and providing better matching of revenues and expenses. As the Company has only recently started selling products, and had limited purchase and sales activity, the weighted average method approximated FIFO and this change to FIFO had no material effect on the prior balance sheet, statement of operations or cash flows. Accordingly, no retrospective changes were recorded.

 

Inventory is comprised of raw materials, assemblies and finished products intended for sale to customers. The Company evaluates the need for reserves for excess and obsolete inventories determined primarily based upon estimates of future demand for the Company’s products. At March 31, 2020 and at December 31, 2019 the Company had no reserve for obsolescence.

 

Loss per Share

 

Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity. The Company’s losses for the periods presented cause the inclusion of potential common stock instruments outstanding to be antidilutive. Stock options, restricted stock units and warrants exercisable or issuable for a total of 9,684,225 shares of Common Stock were outstanding at March 31, 2020. These securities are not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share for the periods presented as their inclusion would be antidilutive due to losses incurred by the Company.

 

 

 

Income Taxes

 

Until its conversion to a corporation on March 31, 2017, the Company was treated as a partnership for federal and state income tax purposes and did not incur income taxes. Instead, its losses were included in the income tax returns of the member partners. No income tax expense was recorded for period ended March 31, 2020 due to losses incurred.

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the bases of certain assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purposes.

 

The Company maintains a valuation allowance with respect to deferred tax assets. The Company establishes a valuation allowance based upon the potential likelihood of realizing the deferred tax asset and taking into consideration the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the current period. Future realization of the deferred tax benefit depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income within the carry-forward period under the Federal tax laws. Changes in circumstances, such as the Company generating taxable income, could cause a change in judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax asset. Any change in the valuation allowance will be included in income in the year of the change in estimates.

 

Recent Issued Accounting Guidance

 

Effective the First Quarter of 2020:

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (“Topic 820”): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The ASU modifies the disclosure requirements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, to improve the effectiveness of fair value measurement disclosures by removing or modifying certain disclosure requirements and adding other requirements. This ASU is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of this standard in the first quarter ended March 31, 2020 had no impact on the Company’s financial statements or disclosures.

 

Other Pronouncements:

In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. ASU 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect that the adoption of this ASU will have a significant impact on our financial statements.

 

The Company has reviewed other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoptions of any such pronouncements will be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of operations.

 

 

 

2.	REVENUE AND PRODUCT COSTS

 

The Company enters into contracts that include various combinations of products, accessories and services, such as training, each of which are generally distinct and are accounted for as separate performance obligations.

 

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to a customer and is the unit of account in Topic 606. For contracts with a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the contract transaction price to each performance obligation using the Company’s estimate of the standalone selling price (“SSP”) of each distinct good or service in a contract. The Company determines standalone selling prices based on the price at which the performance obligation is sold separately. If the standalone selling price is not observable through past transactions, the Company estimates the standalone selling price considering available information such as market conditions and internally approved pricing guidelines related to the performance obligations.

 

Performance obligations to deliver products and accessories are generally satisfied at the point in time the Company ships the product, as this is when the customer obtains control of the asset under our standard terms and conditions. The Company has elected to recognize shipping costs as an expense in cost of revenue when control has transferred to the customer. The revenue and cost of training associated with a customer contract are recognized when the training is completed, generally following delivery of related products.

 

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. The Company generally has an unconditional right to consideration when customers are invoiced, and a receivable is recorded. A contract asset is recognized when revenue is recognized prior to invoicing, or a contract liability (deferred revenue) when revenue will be recognized subsequent to invoicing. At March 31, 2020 the Company had deferred revenue of $2,484 related to future training and extended warranties.

 

The Company may also receive consideration, per terms of a contract, from customers prior to transferring goods to the customer. The Company records customer deposits as a contract liability.

 

The Company recognizes an asset if there are incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer such as commissions. These costs are ascribed to or allocated to the underlying performance obligations in the contract and amortized consistent with the recognition timing of the revenue for any such underlying performance obligations. The Company had no such assets at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Company will apply the practical expedient to expense any sales commissions related to performance obligations with an amortization of one year or less when incurred within selling, general and administrative expense.

 

Estimated costs for the Company’s standard one-year warranty are charged to cost of products sold when revenue is recorded for the related product. Royalties are also charged to cost of products sold.

The Company determined that the outstanding warrants issued in connection with prior stock offerings should be classified as equity in accordance with ASC 480. However, changes in director and officer ownership or other factors in future periods could require reclassification of outstanding warrants as a liability with changes in value thereafter reflected in the statement of operations.

 

9.	STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

On March 31, 2017, the Company adopted, and the stockholders approved the 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) authorizing 2,000,000 shares of Company Common Stock for issuance as stock options and restricted stock units to employees, directors or consultants. In March 2019, the Board of the Company approved and in May 2019, the stockholders ratified, an increase in the Plan authorizing an additional 2,100,000 shares of Common Stock to a total of 4,100,000 shares. In 2018 the Company granted options on 100,000 shares outside of the Plan.

 

The Company generally recognizes stock-based compensation expense on the grant date and over the period of vesting or period that services will be provided.

 

 

 

The following table summarizes stock option activity for the three months ended March 31, 2020:

 

		Weighted Average
	Options on		Remaining	Aggregate
	Common	Exercise	Contractual	Intrinsic
	Shares	Price	Term	Value
	2,928,750	$2.96	3.71

Vested and exercisable at March 31, 2020	1,910,499	$2.31	3.32	$4,106,916

 

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of the options granted. No options were granted during the three months ended March 31, 2020 requiring fair value determination.

 

The Plan provides for the grant of restricted rtock units (RSUs). On January 16, 2020 the Company granted 73,392 of service based RSUs to officer and directors vesting over three years that convert to Common Stock as vesting occurs. The following table summarizes RSU activity under the Plan for the three months ended March 31, 2020:

 

	Weighted Average
	Service-Based	Grant Date	Vesting
	RSU's	Fair Value	Period
Unvested at January 1, 2019	308,087	$6.77
Granted	73,992	$5.71	3 Years
Vested	-	-
Forfeited and cancelled	(3,416)	$7.24
Unvested at December 31, 2019	378,663	$6.56

 

The Company recorded stock-based compensation for options and RSUs in its statements of operations for the relevant periods as follows:

	For the Three Months
	Ended March 31,
	2020	2019
Selling, general and administrative	$429,098	$203,200
Research and development	38,148	23,847
Total stock-based expense	$467,246	$227,047

 

As of March 31, 2020, total estimated compensation cost of stock options and RSUs granted but not yet vested was $3.4 million which is expected to be recognized over the weighted average period of 2.0 years.

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

 

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with the financial statements and other financial information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our audited financial statements and other information presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The following discussion may contain forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “estimate,” “continue,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “would,” or the negative or plural of such words and similar expressions or variations of such words are intended to identify forward-looking statements, but are not the only means of identifying forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that could cause actual results and the timing of certain events to differ materially from future results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our other SEC filings, including particularly matters set forth under Part I, Item 1A (Risk Factors) of our Annual Report on Form 10-K. Furthermore, such forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements.

 

We are a security technology company organized in March 2016 and are focused on delivering modern policing solutions to customers, primarily consisting of law enforcement and security personnel. We began demonstrations of our first product, the BolaWrap 100 remote restraint device, in November 2017. We made various improvements throughout 2018 as a result of feedback from early users of our devices. In late May 2019, we began shipping an updated version of our BolaWrap 100 remote restraint device featuring a green line laser to strategic police departments and international distributors.

 

The immediate addressable domestic market consists of approximately 900,000 full-time sworn law enforcement officers at over 15,300 federal, state and local law enforcement agencies. We are also exploring other domestic markets, including military and private security. Our international focus is on countries with the largest police forces. The 100 largest international police agencies are estimated to have over 12.1 million law enforcement personnel. According to Statistics MRC, we participate in a segment of the non-lethal products global market expected to grow to $11.85 billion by 2023.

 

Business Outlook and Challenges

 

Our remote restraint solution continues to gain worldwide awareness and recognition through media exposure, trade shows, product demonstrations and word of mouth as a result of positive responses from agencies and early adoption and deployment success. We believe we have a recognized global brand, technology and an initial product foundation with the BolaWrap 100.

 

We intend to expand our business in 2020 domestically and internationally through both direct and distributor sales. We have distribution agreements with 11 domestic distributors representing 45 states. These nonexclusive and cancelable agreements provide certain territorial rights to distributors but allow us to sell direct to certain agencies. We have distribution agreements with 16 international distributors representing 26 countries. These agreements are generally exclusive, require minimum performance and allow us to sell direct to customers subject to certain compensation. We focus significant sales and business development efforts to support our international distributors. We are pursuing large business opportunities internationally and also pursuing business with large domestic police agencies. It is difficult to anticipate how long it will take to close these opportunities, or if they will ultimately come to fruition.

 

To support our increased sales and distribution activities we have developed and offer robust training and class materials that certify law enforcement officers and trainers as BolaWrap Instructors in the use and limitations of the BolaWrap 100. At March 31, 2020, in addition to our internal training executives, we have trained 51 contract regional Master Instructors. As of Match 31, 2020, 195 agencies had received BolaWrap 100 training with over 720 training officers at those agencies certified as BolaWrap 100 instructors qualified to train the rest of their departments.

 

At March 31, 2020, we had $222,388 of customer deposits on orders and had backlog of approximately $1.4 million expected to be delivered in the next twelve months. Distributor and customer orders for future deliveries are generally subject to modification, rescheduling or in some instance’s cancellation in the normal course of business.

 

 

 

Since inception in March 2016, we have generated significant losses from operations and anticipate that we will continue to generate significant losses from operations for the foreseeable future. Although we believe that we have adequate financial resources to sustain our operations for the next year, no assurances can be given, and we may need additional capital for future operations and to market and further develop our products and introduce new products.

 

We face significant challenges in operating and growing our business including challenges and uncertainty related to the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) which continues to spread throughout the United States and the World. The Company is monitoring the outbreak of COVID-19 and the related business and travel restrictions and changes to behavior intended to reduce its spread, in addition to the impact on its employees. Due to the rapid development and fluidity of this situation, the magnitude and duration of the pandemic and its impact on the Company’s operations and liquidity is uncertain as of the date of this report. While there could ultimately be a material impact on operations and liquidity of the Company, at the time of issuance, the impact could not be determined.

 

We expect that we will need to continue to innovate new applications for our security technology, develop new products and technologies to meet diverse customer requirements and identify and develop new markets for our products.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expense, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates, on an on-going basis, including those estimates related to recognition and measurement of contingencies and accrued costs. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

As part of the process of preparing our financial statements, we are required to estimate our provision for income taxes. Significant management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities, tax contingencies, unrecognized tax benefits, and any required valuation allowance, including taking into consideration the probability of the tax contingencies being incurred. Management assesses this probability based upon information provided by its tax advisers, its legal advisers and similar tax cases. If at a later time our assessment of the probability of these tax contingencies changes, our accrual for such tax uncertainties may increase or decrease. Our effective tax rate for annual and interim reporting periods could be impacted if uncertain tax positions that are not recognized are settled at an amount which differs from our estimates.

 

Some of our accounting policies require higher degrees of judgment than others in their application. These include stock-based compensation and contingencies and areas such as revenue recognition, operating lease liabilities, warranty liabilities, impairments and valuation of intangible assets.

 

Revenue Recognition. We sell our products to customers including law enforcement agencies, domestic distributors and international distributors and revenue from such transactions is recognized in the periods that products are shipped (free on board (“FOB”) shipping point) or received by customers (FOB destination), when the fee is fixed or determinable and when collection of resulting receivables is reasonably assured. We identify customer performance obligations, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations and recognize revenue as we satisfy the performance obligations. Our primary performance obligations are products/accessories and training. Our customers do not have the right to return product unless the product is found to be defective.

 

Stock Based Compensation. We follow the fair value recognition provisions issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”) and we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-07 for share-based transactions with non-employees. Share-based compensation expense includes stock option and restricted stock unit compensation expense. The grant date fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The grant date is the date at which an employer and employee or non-employee reach a mutual understanding of the key terms and conditions of a stock-based payment award. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires inputs including the market price of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of grant, the term that the stock options are expected to be outstanding, the implied stock volatilities of several publicly-traded peers over the expected term of stock options, risk-free interest rate and expected dividend. Each of these inputs is subjective and generally requires significant judgment to determine. The grant date fair value of restricted stock units is based upon the market price of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of the grant. We determine the amount of stock-based compensation expense based on awards that we ultimately expect to vest and account for forfeitures as they occur. The fair value of stock-based compensation is amortized to compensation expense over the vesting term.

 

 

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. Our products are sold to customers in many different markets and geographic locations. We estimate our bad debt reserve on a case-by-case basis due to a limited number of customers mostly government agencies or well-established distributors. We base these estimates on many factors including customer credit worthiness, past transaction history with the customer, current economic industry trends and changes in customer payment terms. Our judgments and estimates regarding collectability of accounts receivable have an impact on our financial statements.

 

Valuation of Inventory. Our inventory is comprised of raw materials, assemblies and finished products. We must periodically make judgments and estimates regarding the future utility and carrying value of our inventory. The carrying value of our inventory is periodically reviewed and impairments, if any, are recognized when the expected future benefit from our inventory is less than carrying value.

 

Valuation of Intangible Assets. Intangible assets consist of patents and trademarks that are amortized over their estimated useful lives. We must make judgments and estimates regarding the future utility and carrying value of intangible assets. The carrying values of such assets are periodically reviewed and impairments, if any, are recognized when the expected future benefit to be derived from an individual intangible asset is less than carrying value. This generally could occur when certain assets are no longer consistent with our business strategy and whose expected future value has decreased.

 

Accrued Expenses. We establish a warranty reserve based on anticipated warranty claims at the time product revenue is recognized. This reserve requires us to make estimates regarding the amount and costs of warranty repairs we expect to make over a period of time. Factors affecting warranty reserve levels include the number of units sold, anticipated cost of warranty repairs, and anticipated rates of warranty claims. We have very limited history to make such estimates and warranty estimates have an impact on our financial statements. Warranty expense is recorded in cost of revenues. We evaluate the adequacy of this reserve each reporting period.

 

We use the recognition criteria of ASC 450-20, “Loss Contingencies” to estimate the amount of bonuses when it becomes probable a bonus liability will be incurred and we recognize expense ratably over the service period. We accrue bonus expense each quarter based on estimated year-end results, and then adjust the actual in the fourth quarter based on our final results compared to targets.

 

Historically, our assumptions, judgments and estimates relative to our critical accounting policies have not differed materially from actual results. There were no significant changes or modification of our critical accounting policies and estimates involving management valuation adjustments affecting our results for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

 

Operating Expense

 

Our operating expense includes (i) selling, general and administrative expense, and (ii) research and development expense. Research and development expense is comprised of the costs incurred in performing research and development activities and developing production on our behalf, including compensation and consulting, design and prototype costs, contract services, patent costs and other outside expenses. The scope and magnitude of our future research and development expense is difficult to predict at this time and will depend on elections made regarding research projects, staffing levels and outside consulting and contract costs. The actual level of future selling, general and administrative expense will be dependent on staffing levels, elections regarding expenditures on sales, marketing and customer training, the use of outside resources, public company and regulatory costs, and other factors, some of which are outside of our control.

 

We expect our operating costs will increase as we expand product distribution activities and expand our research and development, production, distribution, training, service and administrative functions in the near term. We may also incur substantial noncash stock-based compensation costs depending on future option and restricted stock unit grants that are impacted by stock prices and other valuation factors. Historical expenditures are not indicative of future expenditures.

The following table sets forth for the periods indicated certain items of our condensed statement of operations. The financial information and the discussion below should be read in conjunction with the condensed financial statements and notes contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Report”).

Revenue

 

We reported revenue of $689,437 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. This was a significant increase from the first quarter of the prior year when we had only commenced product sales. It is a 175% increase over the immediately preceding quarter ended December 31, 2019 of $250,772. Our recent marketing and selling efforts have focused on working with domestic and international distributors. We are focusing on large orders from international customers. We incurred product promotional costs of $186,906 during the three months ended March 31, 2020 related to the cost of demonstration products and accessories delivered to law enforcement agencies that were expensed as marketing costs. A total of $67,495 of such product marketing costs were incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

 

We had $594 of deferred revenue at March 31, 2020 related to products sold for which the training revenue component had not been completed and $1,890 related to extended warranties.

 

We believe we can accelerate sales in the future but the impact of the COVID-19 coronavirus has created much uncertainty in the global marketplace. We are unable to predict the impact on demand for our products. We expect sales may be sporadic as we grow both our domestic and international distributor and customer base. There can be no assurance, especially given the uncertainties of the COVID-19 crisis, that we can increase quarterly revenues during 2020.

 

At March 31, 2020 we had $222,388 of customer deposits on orders and had backlog of approximately $1.4 million expected to be delivered in the next twelve months. Distributor and customer orders for future deliveries are generally subject to modification, rescheduling or in some instances, cancellation in the normal course of business.

 

 

 

Gross Profit

 

Our cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $283,625 resulting in a gross margin of 41%. Due to our history of minimal revenue and changes made to our product as we establish volume manufacturing such margin may not be indicative of future margins. In addition, our margins vary based on the sales channels through which our products are sold. We continue to implement product updates and changes, including raw material and component changes that may impact product costs. With such product updates and changes we have limited warranty cost experience and estimated future warranty costs can impact our gross margins. We do not believe that historical gross profit margins should be relied upon as an indicator of future gross profit margins.

 

In September 2019 we relocated manufacturing operations and commenced production to our new facility in Tempe, Arizona. While this significantly increases our capacity, we expect that larger allocations of overhead and costs may have a negative impact on product margins depending on production volume in future quarters.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

 

Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 increased by $952,374 when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. We incurred a $225,898 increase in non-cash stock-based compensation expense allocated to selling, general and administrative expense from $429,098 in the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $203,200 in the three months ended March 31, 2019. Other increases included a $259,111 increase in cash compensation costs from an increase in headcount since the prior year and a $115,349 increase in travel costs related to increased sales, demonstrations and training activity. Marketing and promotion costs increased $165,108 due primarily to promotional products. Consulting costs for sales, marketing and trainers increased $61,840 primarily due to increased training and demonstrations to agencies.

 

We expect to expend comparable resources on the marketing and selling of our products, training distributors and customers and administratively supporting our operations during 2020 but amounts could vary depending on sales levels, the impact of the COVID-19 crisis and other factors outside of our control.

 

Research and Development Expense

 

Research and development expense increased $158,659 during the three months ended March 31, 2020, when compared to the comparable period in 2019. We incurred a $14,301 period over period increase in non-cash stock-based compensation expense allocated to research and development expense as a result of new award grants and vesting timing. The increase in costs during the 2020 period, when compared to the comparable period in 2019, included a $121,488 increase in cash compensation costs resulting from an increase in headcount primarily associated with product development. Prototype related costs increased $77,730 in the 2020 period, primarily related to developing activities to improve our BolaWrap 100 product and develop new products. We expect our research and development costs will vary depending on specific research projects and levels of internal and external staffing and prototype costs.

 

Net Loss

 

Loss from operations during the three months ended March 31, 2020 increased by $883,999 when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019, resulting, primarily, from increased operating costs due to increased personnel and marketing and selling and supporting activities.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Overview

 

We have experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception. As of March 31, 2020, we had cash of $15,492,784 and positive working capital of $17,495,777 and had sustained cumulative losses attributable to stockholders of $15,075,799. We believe that our cash on hand will sustain our operations for at least the next twelve months from the date of this Report.

 

Our sole source of liquidity to date has been funding from our stockholders and the sale and exercise of equity securities. We expect our primary source of future liquidity will be from the sale of products, exercise of stock options and warrants and if required from future equity or debt financings.

 

 

 

Capital Requirements

 

We cannot currently estimate our future liquidity requirements or future capital needs, which will depend on, among other things, capital required to introduce our products and the staffing and support requirements, as well as the timing and amount of future revenue and product costs. We anticipate that demands for operating and working capital may grow depending on decisions on staffing, development, production, marketing, training and other functions and based on other factors outside of our control. We believe we have sufficient capital to sustain our operations for the next twelve months, although no assurances can be given. Additionally, no assurances can be provided that any future debt or equity capital will be available to us under favorable terms, if at all. Failure to quickly produce and sell products and timely obtain any required additional capital in the future would result in a material adverse effect on the Company.

 

Our future capital requirements, cash flows and results of operations could be affected by, and will depend on, many factors, some of which are currently unknown to us, including, among other things:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Cash Flow

 

Operating Activities.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash used in operating activities was $2,238,303. The net loss of $2,345,975 was decreased by non-cash expense of $545,994 consisting primarily of stock-based compensation expense of $467,246. Other major component changes using operating cash included a $43,592 increase in inventories, an increase of $198,502 in accounts receivable, a $149,141 decrease in customer deposits and a $94,299 increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets. An increase of $78,209 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities reduced the cash used in operating activities.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, net cash used in operating activities was $1,588,977 consisting primarily of the net loss of $1,480,781 reduced by non-cash stock-based compensation of $227,047. Inventories increased $521,449 and prepaid expenses increased $212,119 both changes using operating cash while a $459,341 increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities reduced cash used in operations.

  

Investing Activities.

 

We used $19,569 and $39,198 of cash for the purchase of property and equipment during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We invested $34,494 and $34,437 in patents during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

Financing Activities.

 

We received $801,286 of net proceeds from the exercise of previously issued warrants and stock options during the three months ended March 31, 2020 with none in the comparable period of the prior year.

 

 

 

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

 

We are obligated to pay to Syzygy Licensing, LLC (“Syzygy”) a 4% royalty fee on future product sales up to an aggregate amount of $1.0 million in royalties or until September 30, 2026, whichever occurs earlier.

 

We are committed to aggregate lease payments on facility leases of $115,802 for the balance of 2020, $101,406 in 2021 and $57,328 in 2022.

 

At March 31, 2020 we were committed to approximately $275,000 of purchase commitments for product components and contract services. These purchase commitments are generally subject to modification as to timing, quantities and scheduling and in certain instances may be cancelable without penalty.

 

Effects of Inflation

 

We do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our business, revenue or operating results during the periods presented.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

There have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the period ended March 31, 2020, or subsequently thereto, that we believe are of potential significance to our financial statements.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

We are required to maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that material information related to us, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms.

 

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as of March 31, 2020 we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Our process for evaluating controls and procedures is continuous and encompasses constant improvement of the design and effectiveness of established controls and procedures and the remediation of any deficiencies, which may be identified during this process.

We may at times become involved in litigation in the ordinary course of business. We will also, from time to time, when appropriate in management’s estimation, record adequate reserves in our financial statements for pending litigation. Currently, there are no pending material legal proceedings to which the Company is a party or to which any of its property is subject.

 

 

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

As a Smaller Reporting Company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, we are electing scaled disclosure reporting obligations and therefore are not required to provide the information requested by this item.

 

Investors should carefully consider the risk factors included in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our year ended December 31, 2019, as filed with SEC on March 10, 2020. The Company’s business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected due to any of those risks including, but not limited to, the risk factor related to business interruptions, including interruptions resulting from the COVID-19 coronavirus. The extent to which the coronavirus impacts our operations or those of our third-party partners will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration of the outbreak, new information that may emerge concerning the severity of the coronavirus and the actions to contain the coronavirus or treat its impact, among others. Any losses or damages we incur could have a material adverse effect on our financial results and our ability to conduct business as expected.

 

Additionally, the continued spread of COVID-19 and uncertain market conditions may limit our ability to access capital and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
