Note 2. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 
 
The Company 
 
We provide leading edge frozen shipping logistics solutions to the biotechnology and life science industries. Since 2011, through the completion of the combination of purpose-built proprietary hardware, software information technologies and developed logistics knowhow known as “total turnkey management” we have provided logistics management for frozen shipping to these industries. Our solutions are disruptive to “old technologies” and provide reliable, economic alternatives to existing products and services utilized for frozen shipping in biotechnology and life sciences including stem cells, cell lines, vaccines, diagnostic materials, semen and embryos for in-vitro fertilization, cord blood, bio-pharmaceuticals, infectious substances and other items that require continuous exposure to frozen or cryogenic temperatures. Our solutions contribute to the reliability, efficiency, and effectiveness of clinical trials.  
 
Cryoport Express® Solutions include a cloud-based logistics management software branded as the CryoportalTM. The Cryoportal supports the management of the entire shipment process through a single interface which includes initial order input, document preparation, customs clearance, courier management, shipment tracking, issue resolution, and delivery. Cryoport’s total turnkey logistics solutions offer reliability, cost effectiveness, and convenience, while the use of recyclable and reusable components provides “green”, environmentally friendly solutions. The Cryoportal provides an array of unique information dashboards and validation documentation for every shipment. 
 
Integral to our logistics solutions are the Cryoport Liquid Nitrogen Dry Vapor Shippers (Cryoport Express ® Shippers), which are cost-effective and reusable cryogenic transport containers (patented vacuum flasks) utilizing innovative liquid nitrogen (LN2) “dry vapor” technology. Cryoport Express ® Shippers are non-hazardous, IATA (International Air Transport Association) certified, and validated to maintain stable temperatures below minus 150° Celsius for a 10-plus day dynamic shipment period. The Company currently features two Cryoport Express ® Shipper models, the Standard Dry Shipper (holding up to approximately 75-2.0 ml vials) and the High Volume Dry Shipper (holding up to approximately 500-2.0 ml vials). 
 
The Cryoport Express® Solutions include recording and retaining a fully documented “chain-of-custody” and, at the client’s option, “chain-of-condition” for every shipment, helping ensure that quality, safety, efficacy, and stability of shipped commodities are maintained. This recorded and archived information allows our customers to meet the exacting requirements necessary for scientific work and for regulatory purposes. Cryoport Express® Solutions can be used by customers, as a “turnkey” solution, through direct access to the cloud-based Cryoportal, or by contacting Cryoport Client Care for order entry tasks. Cryoport provides 24/7/365 logistics services through its Client Care team and also provides complete training and process management services to support each client’s specific requirements. 
 
From 2011 through 2012, the Cryoport Express® Solution was the Company’s principal focus for development and commercialization. During the last months of 2012, the Company’s approach to the market was enhanced to include a comprehensive solutions orientation and it expanded its service offering to address the various broader market needs in the biotechnology and life science industries. Today, as a solutions provider, Cryoport tailors its frozen logistics solutions to client requirements. In addition to custom solutions, the Company’s primary customer facing solutions offerings are as follows:
 
Cryoport Express® Solution
 
 The fully outsourced turnkey logistics solution described above.
 
Customer-Staged Solution
 
Cryoport ships an inventory of Cryoport Express® Shippers to the customer (uncharged and in bulk) enabling the customer to charge the shippers at their facility, process their orders through the Cryoportal which permits Cryoport Client Care to oversee the logistics of each shipment and the return of the shippers to Cryoport for cleaning, testing and refurbishing. Cryoport Client Care provides the 24/7/365 logistics services utilizing its Cryoportal logistics platform.
 
Customer-Managed Solution
 
Cryoport ships a fully charged Cryoport Express® Shipper(s) to the customer enabling the customer to utilize its internal expertise to manage all or a portion of the logistics services. As with the above solutions, the shippers are returned to Cryoport for cleaning, testing and refurbishing within a pre-determined time period.
 
Customer Integrated Logistics
 
The Cryoport logistics team provides a tailored and full range of logistics support solutions. In addition to tailoring a management solution, the robust, enterprise grade Cryoportal is used to provide complete logistics services while enabling the customer to utilize their own packaging solutions or Cryoport Express ® Shippers. Cryoport can provide onsite logistics personnel allowing the customer to fully outsource their cold chain logistics needs to Cryoport and focus on its core competencies.
 
Distribution Partnerships
 
“Powered by Cryoport” is an important partnership arrangements with integrators, freight forwarders and other logistics providers, enabling partners to expand their solutions offering by adding the total Cryoport Express ® Shipper solution to their customer offering.
 
 One of our distribution partners is Federal Express Corporation (“FedEx”). We have an agreement with FedEx to provide frozen shipping logistics services through the combination of our purpose-built proprietary technologies and turnkey management processes. FedEx markets and sells Cryoport’s services for frozen temperature-controlled cold chain transportation as its FedEx® Deep Frozen Shipping Solution, on a non-exclusive basis and at its sole expense. During fiscal year 2013, the Company worked closely with FedEx to further align its sales efforts and accelerate penetration within FedEx’s biotechnology and life sciences customer base through improved processes, sales incentives, joint customer calls and more frequent communication at the sales and executive level. In addition, the Company has developed a FedEx branded portal, which is “powered by the Cryoport”, for use by FedEx and its customers giving them access to the full capabilities of our logistics management platform.
 
In January 2013, we entered into a master agreement (“FedEx Agreement”) with FedEx renewing these services and providing FedEx with a non-exclusive license and right to use a customized version of our Cryoportal for the management of shipments made by FedEx customers. The FedEx Agreement became effective on January 1, 2013 and, unless sooner terminated as provided in the FedEx Agreement, expires on December 31, 2015.
 
Pursuant to an agreement with DHL Express (USA), Inc. (“DHL”), DHL biotechnology and life science customers have direct access to our cloud-based order entry and tracking portal to order Cryoport Express® Dry Shippers and receive preferred DHL shipping rates. The agreement covers DHL shipping discounts that may be used to support our customers using the Cryoport Express® Solutions. In connection with the agreement, we have integrated our proprietary Cryoportal to DHL’s tracking and billing systems to provide DHL biotechnology and life science customers with a seamless way (“powered by Cryoport”) of shipping their critical biological material worldwide.
 
  In December 2012, we signed an agreement with Pfizer Inc. relating to Zoetis Inc. (formerly the animal health business unit of Pfizer Inc.) pursuant to which we were engaged to manage frozen shipments of a key poultry vaccine. Under this arrangement, the Company is providing on-site logistics personnel and its logistics management platform, the Cryoportal, to manage shipments from the Zoetis manufacturing site in the United States to domestic customers as well as various international distribution centers. As part of its logistics management services, the Company will analyze shipping data and processes to further streamline Zoetis’ logistics, ensuring products arrive at their destinations in specified conditions, on-time and with the optimum uses of resources. The Company manages Zoetis’ total fleet of dewar flask shippers used for this purpose, including liquid nitrogen shippers. In July 2013, the agreement was amended to expand Cryoport’s scope to manage all shipments of the key frozen poultry vaccine to all Zoetis’ international distribution centers as well as all domestic shipments of this vaccine.
 
We offer our solutions to companies in the biotechnology and life sciences industries and specific verticals including manufacturers of stem cells and cell lines, diagnostic laboratories, bio-pharmaceuticals, contract research organizations, in-vitro fertilization, cord blood, vaccines, tissue, animal husbandry, and other producers of commodities requiring reliable frozen solutions for logistics problems. These companies operate within heavily regulated environments and as such, changing vendors and distribution practices typically require a number of steps, which may include the audit of our facilities, review of our procedures, qualifying us as a vendor, and performing test shipments. This process can take up to nine months or longer to complete prior to a potential customer adopting one or more of the Cryoport Express® Solutions.
 
Going Concern 
 
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual method of accounting in accordance with U.S. GAAP and have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have sustained operating losses since our inception and have used substantial amounts of working capital in our operations. Further, at June 30, 2013, we had an accumulated deficit of $67,634,985, we had a net loss of $1,323,537 and we used cash in operations of $1,170,991 during the three months ended June 30, 2013. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
We expect to continue to incur substantial additional operating losses from costs related to the commercialization of our Cryoport Express® Solutions and do not expect that revenues from operations will be sufficient to satisfy our funding requirements in the near term. We believe that our cash resources at June 30, 2013, additional bridge financing received subsequent to the quarter end, together with the revenues generated from our services, the continued focus on cost reductions of non-sales generating costs will be sufficient to sustain our planned operations into the third quarter of fiscal year 2014; however, we must obtain additional capital to fund operations thereafter and for the achievement of sustained profitable operations. We are currently working on funding alternatives in order to secure sufficient operating capital to allow us to continue to operate as a going concern.
 
Future capital requirements will depend upon many factors, including the success of our commercialization efforts and the level of customer adoption of our Cryoport Express® Solutions as well as our ability to establish additional collaborative arrangements. We cannot make any assurances that the sales ramp together with cost reduction measures will lead to achievement of sustained profitable operations or that any additional financing will be completed on a timely basis, on acceptable terms or at all. Management’s inability to successfully achieve significant revenue increases or its cost reduction strategies or to complete any other financing will adversely impact our ability to continue as a going concern. To address this issue, the Company has instituted cost containment measures and is seeking additional capitalization to properly fund its efforts to become a self-sustaining financially viable entity.
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CryoPort, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, CryoPort Systems, Inc. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. 
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from estimated amounts. The Company’s significant estimates include allowances for doubtful accounts and sales returns, recoverability of long-lived assets, deferred taxes and their accompanying valuations, valuation of derivative liabilities and valuation of common stock, warrants and stock options issued for products or services. 
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments 
 
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, related-party notes payable and accrued interest, convertible notes payable and accrued interest, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying value for all such instruments approximates fair value at June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, due to their short term nature. The difference between the fair value and recorded values of the related party notes payable and accrued interest is not significant.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents 
 
The Company considers highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. 
 
Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
The Company maintains its cash accounts in financial institutions. Accounts at these institutions are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) with basic deposit coverage limits up to $250,000 per owner. At June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, the Company had $0 and approximately $214,000, respectively, which exceeded the FDIC insurance limit, of cash balances. The Company performs ongoing evaluations of these institutions to limit its concentration risk exposure.
 
Customers   
 
The Company grants credit to customers within the U.S. and to a limited number of international customers and does not require collateral. Revenues from international customers are generally secured by advance payments except for a limited number of established foreign customers. The Company generally requires advance or credit card payments for initial revenues from new customers. The Company’s ability to collect receivables is affected by economic fluctuations in the geographic areas and industries served by the Company. Reserves for uncollectible amounts are provided based on past experience and a specific analysis of the accounts which management believes is sufficient. Accounts receivable at June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013 are net of reserves for doubtful accounts of approximately $9,100 and $8,700, respectively. Although the Company expects to collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the estimated amounts.
 
The Company has foreign revenues primarily inEurope, Japan, and India. During the three month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company had foreign revenues of approximately $144,000 and $81,000, respectively, which constituted approximately 29% and 42% of total net revenues, respectively.
 
The majority of the Company’s customers are in the biotechnology, pharmaceutical and life science industries. Consequently, there is a concentration of receivables within these industries, which is subject to normal credit risk. One customer accounted for 30% of total net revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2013. A different customer accounted for 16% of our total net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The Company maintains reserves for bad debt and such losses, in the aggregate, which historically have not exceeded our estimates. 
 
Inventories
 
The Company’s inventories consist of accessories that are sold and shipped to customers along with pay-per-use containers that are not returned to the Company along with the containers at the culmination of the customer’s shipping cycle. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or current estimated market value. Cost is determined using the standard cost method which approximates the first-in, first-to-expire method. Inventories are reviewed periodically for slow-moving or obsolete status. The Company writes down the carrying value of its inventories to reflect situations in which the cost of inventories is not expected to be recovered. Once established, write-downs of inventories are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the obsolete or excess inventories. Raw materials and finished goods include material costs less reserves for obsolete or excess inventories. The Company evaluates the current level of inventories considering historical trends and other factors, and based on the evaluation, records adjustments to reflect inventories at its net realizable value. These adjustments are estimates, which could vary significantly from actual results if future economic conditions, customer demand, competition or other relevant factors differ from expectations. These estimates require us to make assessments about future demand for the Company’s products in order to categorize the status of such inventories items as slow-moving, obsolete or in excess-of-need. These estimates are subject to the ongoing accuracy of the Company’s forecasts of market conditions, industry trends, competition and other factors. At June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, the Company’s inventories consisted of $39,661 and $28,533 in raw materials, respectively, and $13,203 and $10,679 in finished goods, respectively. 
 
Property and Equipment
 
The Company provides shipping containers to its customers and charges a fee in exchange for the use of the container. The Company’s arrangements are similar to the accounting standard for leases since they convey the right to use the container over a period of time. The Company retains the title to the containers and provides its customers the use of the container for a specific shipping cycle. At the culmination of the customer’s shipping cycle, the container is returned to the Company. As a result, the Company classifies the containers as fixed assets for the per-use container program.
 
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Cryogenic shippers, which comprise of 90% and 87% of the Company’s net property and equipment balance at June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, respectively, are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of three years. Equipment and furniture are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives (generally three to seven years) and leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term, whichever is shorter. Equipment acquired under capital leases is amortized over the estimated useful life of the assets or term of the lease, whichever is shorter and included in depreciation and amortization expense.
 
Betterments, renewals and extraordinary repairs that extend the lives of the assets are capitalized; other repairs and maintenance charges are expensed as incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization applicable to assets retired are removed from the accounts, and the gain or loss on disposition is recognized in current operations.
 
Depreciation and amortization expense for property and equipment was $61,720 and $66,841 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
 
Intangible Assets
 
Intangible assets are comprised of patents and trademarks and software development costs. The Company capitalizes costs of obtaining patents and trademarks, which are amortized, using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life of five years. The Company capitalizes certain costs related to software developed for internal use. Software development costs incurred during the preliminary or maintenance project stages are expensed as incurred, while costs incurred during the application development stage are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software, which is five years. Capitalized costs include purchased materials and costs of services including the valuation of warrants issued to consultants.
 
Amortization expense for intangible assets for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $27,723 and $28,188, respectively. All of the Company’s intangible assets are subject to amortization.
 
Long-lived Assets 
 
If indicators of impairment exist, we assess the recoverability of the affected long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets can be recovered through undiscounted future operating cash flows. If impairment is indicated, we measure the amount of such impairment by comparing the fair value to the carrying value. We believe the future cash flows to be received from the long-lived assets will exceed the assets’ carrying value, and accordingly, we have not recognized any impairment losses at June 30, 2013 or March 31, 2013.
 
Deferred Financing Costs 
 
Deferred financing costs represent costs incurred in connection with the issuance of the convertible notes payable and private equity financing. Deferred financing costs related to issuance of debt are being amortized over the term of the financing instruments using the effective interest method while deferred financing costs from equity financings are netted against the gross proceeds received from the equity financings.
 
During the years ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company incurred $103,542and $572,255, respectively of offering costs in connection with the private placement that closed in February and March 2012, which were charged to additional paid-in capital and netted against the proceeds received in the private placements. As of June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, offering costs of $40,747 and $53,747, respectively, related to the private placement were included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
 
In connection with the convertible debt financing in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013 and first quarter of fiscal year 2014, the Company incurred financing costs of $116,505 and $86,234, respectively, which were capitalized and are being amortized over the term of the convertible notes payable using the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest method (see Note 4). As of June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, financing costs of $70,234 and $38,475, respectively, related to the convertible notes payable were included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
 
Convertible Debentures 
 
If a conversion feature of conventional convertible debt is not accounted for as a derivative instrument and provides for a rate of conversion that is below market value, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). A BCF is recorded by the Company as a debt discount. The convertible debt is recorded net of the discount related to the BCF. The Company amortizes the discount to interest expense over the life of the debt using the effective interest rate method.
 
Derivative Liabilities
 
Certain of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock purchase warrants which have exercise price reset features are treated as derivatives for accounting purposes. The common stock purchase warrants were not issued with the intent of effectively hedging any future cash flow, fair value of any asset, liability or any net investment in a foreign operation. The warrants do not qualify for hedge accounting, and as such, all future changes in the fair value of these warrants are recognized currently in earnings until such time as the warrants are exercised, expire or the related rights have been waived. These common stock purchase warrants do not trade in an active securities market, and as such, the Company estimates the fair value of these warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model (“Black-Scholes”) (see Note 5).
 
Supply Concentration Risks 
 
The component parts for our products are primarily manufactured at third party manufacturing facilities. The Company also has a warehouse at our corporate offices in Lake Forest, California, where the Company is capable of manufacturing certain parts and fully assembles its products. Most of the components that the Company uses in the manufacture of its products are available from more than one qualified supplier. For some components, however, there are relatively few alternate sources of supply and the establishment of additional or replacement suppliers may not be accomplished immediately, however, the Company has identified alternate qualified suppliers which the Company believes could replace existing suppliers. Should this occur, the Company believes that with its current level of shippers and production rate the Company has enough to cover a four to six week gap in maximum disruption of production.
 
There are no specific agreements with any manufacturer nor are there any long term commitments to any manufacturer. The Company believes that any of the manufactures currently used by it could be replaced within a short period of time as none have a proprietary component or a substantial capital investment specific to its products.
 
Commitments and Contingencies
 
The Company is subject to routine claims and litigation incidental to our business. In the opinion of management, the resolution of such claims is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our operating results or financial position.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company provides shipping containers to their customers and charges a fee in exchange for the use of the container. The Company’s arrangements are similar to the accounting standard for leases since they convey the right to use the containers over a period of time. The Company retains title to the containers and provides its customers the use of the container for a specified shipping cycle. At the culmination of the customer’s shipping cycle, the container is returned to the Company.
 
The Company recognizes revenue for the use of the shipper at the time of the delivery of the shipper to the end user of the enclosed materials, and at the time that collectability is reasonably certain. Revenue is based on gross sales net of discounts and allowances.
 
The Company also provides logistics support and management to some customers, which may include onsite logistics personnel. Revenue is recognized for these services as services are rendered and at the time that collectability is reasonably certain.
 
Accounting for Shipping and Handling Revenue, Fees and Costs 
 
The Company classifies amounts billed for shipping and handling as revenue. Shipping and handling fees and costs are included in cost of revenues in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
 
Research and Development Expenses 
 
Expenditures relating to research and development are expensed in the period incurred. Research and development expenses to date have consisted primarily of costs associated with the continually improving the features of the Cryoport Express® Solutions including the web based customer service portal and the Cryoport Express® Shippers. Further, these efforts are expected to lead to the introduction of shippers of varying sizes based on market requirements, constructed of lower cost materials and utilizing high volume manufacturing methods that will make it practical to provide the cryogenic packages offered by the Cryoport Express® Solutions. An additional research and development effort has been directed toward improvements to the liquid nitrogen retention system to render it more reliable in the general shipping environment and to the design of the outer packaging. Alternative phase change materials in place of liquid nitrogen may be used to increase the potential markets these shippers can serve, such as ambient and 2-8°C markets.
 
Stock-based Compensation 
 
The Company accounts for stock-based payments to employees and directors in accordance with stock-based payment accounting guidance which requires all stock-based payments to employees and directors, including grants of employee stock options and warrants, to be recognized based upon their fair values. The fair value of stock-based awards is estimated at grant date using Black-Scholes and the portion that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as compensation cost over the requisite service period.
 
Since stock-based compensation is recognized only for those awards that are ultimately expected to vest, the Company has applied an estimated forfeiture rate to unvested awards for the purpose of calculating compensation cost. These estimates will be revised, if necessary, in future periods if actual forfeitures differ from estimates. Changes in forfeiture estimates impact compensation cost in the period in which the change in estimate occurs. The estimated forfeiture rates at June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013 was zero as the Company has not had a significant history of forfeitures and does not expect significant forfeitures in the future.
 
Cash flows from the tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options or warrants are classified as financing cash flows. Due to the Company’s loss position, there were no such tax benefits during the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
 
The Company uses Black-Scholes to estimate the fair value of stock-based awards. The determination of fair value using Black-Scholes is affected by its stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables, including expected stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate, expected dividends and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors.
 
The Company’s stock-based compensation plans are discussed further in Note 7.
 
Equity Instruments Issued to Non-Employees for Acquiring Goods or Services
 
Issuances of the Company’s common stock for acquiring goods or services are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued to consultants or vendors is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance to earn the equity instruments is reached (a “performance commitment” which would include a penalty considered to be of a magnitude that is a sufficiently large disincentive for nonperformance) or (ii) the date at which performance is complete. When it is appropriate for the Company to recognize the cost of a transaction during financial reporting periods prior to the measurement date, for purposes of recognition of costs during those periods, the equity instrument is measured at the then-current fair values at each of those interim financial reporting dates (see Note 7).
 
Income Taxes 
 
The Company accounts for income taxes under the provision of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, Income Taxes, or ASC 740. The Company is a subchapter “C” corporation and files a federal income tax return. The Company files state income tax returns in California.
 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations. Based on the weight of available evidence, the Company’s management has determined that it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be realized. Therefore, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets. The Company’s income tax provision consists of state minimum taxes.
 
ASC 740, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the financial statements, provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits. Income tax positions must meet a more likely than not recognition threshold. As of June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, there were no unrecognized tax benefits included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets that would, if recognized, affect the effective tax rates. It is not anticipated that there will be a significant change in the unrecognized tax benefits over the next twelve months.
 
The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company had no accrual for interest or penalties on its condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, respectively and has not recognized interest and/or penalties in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. and various state jurisdictions. As of June 30, 2013, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal examinations for years before 2009 and for California franchise and income tax examinations for years before 2008. However, to the extent allowed by law, the taxing authorities may have the right to examine prior periods where net operating losses were generated and carried forward, and make adjustments up to the amount of the net operating loss carry forward amount. The Company is not currently under examination by U.S. federal or state jurisdictions.
 
Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share 
 
Basic net loss per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average shares outstanding assuming all dilutive potential common shares were issued. In addition, in computing the dilutive effect of convertible securities, the numerator is adjusted to add back the after-tax amount of interest, if any, recognized in the period associated with any convertible debt. For the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company was in a loss position and the basic and diluted net loss per share are the same since the effect of stock options, warrants and convertible notes payable on net loss per share was anti-dilutive and thus not included in the diluted net loss per share calculation. The impact under the treasury stock method of dilutive stock options and warrants and the if-converted method of convertible debt would have resulted in weighted average common shares outstanding of approximately 39,034,000 and 37,772,000 for the three month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
 
Segment Reporting 
 
We currently operate in only one segment.
 
Fair Value Measurements 
 
The Company determines the fair value of its derivative instruments using a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements which these assets and liabilities must be grouped, based on significant levels of observable or unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. These two types of inputs have created the following fair-value hierarchy:
 
Level 1 — Valuations based on unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical securities. Currently the Company does not have any items classified as Level 1.
 
Level 2 — Valuations based on observable inputs (other than Level 1 prices), such as quoted prices for similar assets at the measurement date; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly.
 
Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, and involve management judgment. The Company uses Black-Scholes to determine the fair value of the instruments. If the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, a financial security’s hierarchy level is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
 
  The following table presents the Company’s warrants measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013 classified using the valuation hierarchy:
