SONOMA PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Organization and Recent Developments

Organization

Sonoma Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of California in April 1999 and was reincorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in December 2006. The Company’s principal office is located in Petaluma, California. The Company is a specialty pharmaceutical company dedicated to identifying, developing and commercializing unique, differentiated therapies to patients living with chronic skin conditions. The Company believes its products, which are sold throughout the United States and internationally, have improved patient outcomes by treating and reducing certain skin diseases including acne, atopic dermatitis, scarring, infections, itch, pain and harmful inflammatory responses.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2018 and for the three and nine months then ended have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and on the same basis as the Company prepares its annual audited consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018, the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 and the cash flows for the nine months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 are unaudited, but include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The results for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending March 31, 2019 or for any future interim period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2018 has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2018, and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on June 26, 2018.

Note 2. Liquidity and Financial Condition

The Company reported a net loss of $8,576,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2018. At December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2018, the Company’s accumulated deficit amounted to $166,016,000 and $157,440,000, respectively. The Company had working capital of $11,254,000 and $12,993,000 as of December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2018, respectively.

On November 16, 2018, the Company entered into a placement agency agreement with Dawson James Securities, Inc. with respect to the issuance and sale of an aggregate of up to 7,300,000 units with each unit consisting of one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share or, in lieu of common stock, if purchasing common stock would result in the purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the outstanding common stock, shares of Series C convertible preferred stock (“Series C”) convertible into shares of common stock, together with one half of one warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price equal to $1.00 per whole share, in a public offering. The public offering price for each unit was $1.00. On November 21, 2018, at closing of the offering, the Company sold 4,564,400 shares of common stock, 9.65 shares of Series C (convertible into 965,000 shares of common stock) and 2,764,700 warrants for gross proceeds of $5,530,000 and net proceeds of $4,742,000 after deducting placement agent commissions and other estimated offering expenses.

6

On December 8, 2017, the Company entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement with B. Riley FBR, Inc. under which the Company may issue and sell shares of common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $5,000,000 from time to time through B. Riley acting as its sales agent. The Company will pay B. Riley a commission rate equal to 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of any shares of common stock sold through B. Riley as agent. For the period of April 1, 2018 through October 3, 2018, the Company sold 267,394 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $999,000 and net proceeds of $957,000 after deducting commissions and other offering expenses.

In addition, on October 4, 2018, the Company sold 113,000 shares of common stock, at a price of $2.39 per share, through its At Market Issuance Sales Agreement with B. Riley FBR, Inc. for gross proceeds of $270,000 and net proceeds of $262,000 after deducting commissions and other offering expenses. This sale exceeded the aggregate market value of the Company’s securities sold during the period of twelve calendar months prior to the sale of one-third of the aggregate market value of its common stock held by non-affiliates, and thus, the 113,000 shares of common stock were unregistered. The Company could be liable in the event claims or suits for rescission are brought and successfully concluded for failure to register these securities or for acts or omissions constituting offenses under the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or applicable state securities laws. The Company could be liable for damages and penalties assessed by the SEC and state securities regulators.

The Company expects to continue incurring losses for the foreseeable future and will need to raise additional capital to pursue its product development initiatives, to penetrate markets for the sale of its products and to continue as a going concern. The Company cannot provide any assurances that it will be able to raise additional capital.

Management believes that the Company has access to additional capital resources through possible public or private equity offerings, debt financings, corporate collaborations or other means; however, the Company cannot provide any assurances that other new financings will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if needed. If the economic climate in the U.S. deteriorates, the Company’s ability to raise additional capital could be negatively impacted. If the Company is unable to secure additional capital, it may be required take additional measures to reduce costs in order to conserve its cash in amounts sufficient to sustain operations and meet its obligations. These measures could cause significant delays in the Company’s continued efforts to commercialize its products, which is critical to the realization of its business plan and the future operations of the Company. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the dates of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions include reserves and write-downs related to receivables and inventories, the recoverability of long-lived assets, the valuation allowance relating to the Company’s deferred tax assets, the valuation of equity and derivative instruments, debt discounts, the valuation of investments, the determination of the relative selling prices of the components sold to Invekra, and the estimated amortization periods of upfront product licensing fees received from customers. Periodically, the Company evaluates and adjusts estimates accordingly.

Net Loss per Share

The Company computes basic net loss per share by dividing net loss per share available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and excludes the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted earnings per share, if presented, would include the dilution that would occur upon the exercise or conversion of all potentially dilutive securities into common stock using the “treasury stock” and/or “if converted” methods as applicable. The computation of basic loss per share for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 excludes the potentially dilutive securities summarized in the table below because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

		6,254,000		2,751,000

(1) Each unit consists of one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and one half of one warrant to purchase one share of common stock.

Revenue Recognition

On April 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers Topic 606” (“Topic 606”) using the modified retrospective method. There was no impact to the Company upon the adoption of Topic 606. Revenue is recognized when the entity transfers promised goods or services to the customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In determining the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as the Company fulfills its obligations under the agreement, the Company performs the following steps: (i) identification of the promised goods or services in the contract; (ii) determination of whether the promised goods or services are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract; (iii) measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that it will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer.

The Company derives the majority of its revenue through sales of its products to a customer base, including hospitals, medical centers, doctors, pharmacies, distributors and wholesalers. The Company sells products directly to end users and to distributors. The Company also has entered into agreements to license its technology and products. The Company also provides regulatory compliance testing and quality assurance services to medical device and pharmaceutical companies.

The Company considers customer purchase orders, which in some cases are governed by master sales agreements, to be the contracts with a customer. For each contract, the Company considers the promise to transfer products, each of which are distinct, to be the identified performance obligations. In determining the transaction price the Company evaluates whether the price is subject to refund or adjustment to determine the net consideration to which it expects to be entitled.

For all of its sales to non-consignment distribution channels, revenue is recognized when control of the product is transferred to the customer (i.e. when our performance obligation is satisfied), which typically occurs when title passes to the customer upon shipment but could occur when the customer receives the product based on the terms of the agreement with the customer.  For product sales to its value-added resellers, non-stocking distributors and end-user customers, the Company grants return privileges to its customers, and because the Company has a long history with its customers, the Company is able to estimate the amount of product that will be returned.  Sales incentives and other programs that the Company may make available to these customers are considered to be a form of variable consideration, and the Company maintains estimated accruals and allowances using the expected value method.

The Company has entered into consignment arrangements, in which goods are left in the possession of another party to sell. As products are sold from the customer to third parties, the Company recognizes revenue based on a variable percentage of a fixed price.  Revenue recognized varies depending on whether a patient is covered by insurance or is not covered by insurance. In addition, the Company may incur a revenue deduction related to the use of the Company’s rebate program.

8

Sales to stocking distributors are made under terms with fixed pricing and limited rights of return (known as “stock rotation”) of the Company’s products held in their inventory. Revenue from sales to distributors is recognized upon the transfer of control to the distributor.

The Company assessed the promised goods and services in the technical support to Invekra for a ten-year period as being a distinct service that Invekra can benefit from on its own and is separately identifiable from any other promises within the contract. Given that the distinct service is not substantially the same as other goods and services within the Invekra contract, the Company accounted for the distinct service as a performance obligation.

Revenue from testing contracts is recognized as tests are completed and a final report is sent to the customer.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The following table presents the Company’s disaggregated revenues by revenue source:

	Three Months Ended December 31,				Nine Months Ended December 31,
	2018		2017		2018		2017
Product
Human Skin Care	$	4,497,000	$	4,358,000	$	12,125,000	$	11,297,000
Animal Skin Care		548,000		289,000		1,650,000		1,097,000
		5,045,000		4,647,000		13,775,000		12,394,000
Service		235,000		196,000		813,000		609,000
Total	$	5,280,000	$	4,843,000	$	14,588,000	$	13,003,000

Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivable are recorded net of allowances for cash discounts for prompt payment, doubtful accounts, and sales returns. Estimates for cash discounts and sales returns are based on analysis of contractual terms and historical trends.

The Company’s policy is to reserve for uncollectible accounts based on its best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company periodically reviews its accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance for doubtful accounts is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account may be in doubt. Other factors that the Company considers include its existing contractual obligations, historical payment patterns of its customers and individual customer circumstances, an analysis of the number of days sales are outstanding by customer and geographic region, and a review of the local economic environment and its potential impact on government funding and reimbursement practices. Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The allowance for doubtful accounts represents probable credit losses of $16,000 and $17,000 at December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2018, respectively. Additionally, at December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2018 the Company had allowances of $1,834,000 and $1,275,000, respectively, related to potential discounts, returns, distributor fees and rebates. The allowances are included in Accounts Receivable, net in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, cost being determined on a standard cost basis (which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis), or net realizable value.

Due to changing market conditions, estimated future requirements, age of the inventories on hand and production of new products, the Company regularly reviews inventory quantities on hand and records a provision to write down excess and obsolete inventory to its estimated net realizable value. The Company recorded a provision to reduce the carrying amounts of inventories to their net realizable value in the amount of $124,000 and $111,000 at December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2018, respectively, which is included in cost of product revenues on the Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.

Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated subsequent events or transactions occurring through the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued.

Adoption of Recent Accounting Standards

Financial Instruments

On April 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments-Overall, which addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The Company has determined there was no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations upon adoption of this topic.

Statement of Cash Flows

On April 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230). This amendment provides guidance on the presentation and classification of specific cash flow items to improve consistency within the statement of cash flows. The Company has determined there was no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations upon adoption of this topic.

On April 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which changes the presentation of restricted cash and cash equivalents on the statement of cash flows. Restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents will be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The Company has determined there was no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations upon adoption of this topic.

Business Combinations

On April 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting, including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill, and consolidation. The Company has determined there was no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations upon adoption of this topic.

Stock Compensation

On April 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting, clarifying when a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award must be accounted for as a modification. The new guidance requires modification accounting if the fair value, vesting condition or the classification of the award is not the same immediately before and after a change to the terms and conditions of the award. The Company has determined there was no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations upon adoption of this topic.

Recent Accounting Standards

Leases

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which will require lessees to recognize a right of use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The amendment will be effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases and ASU No. 2018-11, Leases - Targeted Improvements. ASU No. 2018-10 provides certain amendments that affect narrow aspects of the guidance issued in ASU No. 2016-02. ASU No. 2018-11 allows entities the option to prospectively apply the new lease standard at the adoption date instead of recording the cumulative impact of all comparative reporting periods presented within retained earnings. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU No. 2016-02, ASU No. 2018-10 and ASU No. 2018-11 will have on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosure.

Reporting Comprehensive Income

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("ASU 2018-02"). ASU 2018-02 provides financial statement preparers with an option to reclassify stranded tax effects within accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings in each period in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”) (or portion thereof) is recorded. ASU 2018-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for any interim period for which financial statements have not been issued. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements due to the presence of a full valuation allowance. However, the Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on the Company's consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Stock Compensation

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which expands the scope of ASC Topic 718 to include all share-based payment arrangements related to the acquisition of goods and services from both nonemployees and employees. This amendment will be effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU No. 2018-07 will have on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosure.

Accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB, the SEC or other standard setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Note 5. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Matters

On March 17, 2017, the Company filed a lawsuit against Collidion, Inc. and several of its former employees, officers and directors, alleging the misappropriation of its confidential, proprietary and trade secret information as well as breach of fiduciary duties in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, San Francisco Division. On September 26, 2018, the Company settled the lawsuit to the satisfaction of all parties. There has been no finding of wrongdoing against any party.

11

Aside from the lawsuit described above, on occasion, the Company may be involved in legal matters arising in the ordinary course of business including matters involving proprietary technology. While management believes that such matters are currently insignificant, matters arising in the ordinary course of business for which the Company is or could become involved in litigation may have a material adverse effect on its business and financial condition of comprehensive loss.

Employment Matters

Potential Severance Payments

As of December 31, 2018, the Company had employment agreements in place with four of its key executives. The agreements provide, among other things, for the payment of up to twelve months of severance compensation for terminations under certain circumstances. Three of the employment agreements have a provision for severance compensation. At December 31, 2018, potential severance payments to key executives would be $704,000, if triggered.

Appointment of Chief Executive Office and Interim Financial Officer

On December 11, 2018, the Company’s Board appointed Mr. Frederick (Bubba) Sandford as its Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer for an initial term of nine months, subject to a mutual extension of an additional three months. Mr. Sandford was appointed as a Class III director of the Board on December 14, 2018.

In connection with Mr. Sandford’s appointment as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, the Company entered into an employment agreement with him, in which the Company agreed to pay him a base annual salary of $350,000 per year. The Company also agreed to pay him a performance bonus of a maximum of 60% of his base annual salary for achieving certain agreed upon targets.

In addition, pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Sandford was granted 450,000 stock options to purchase the Company’s common stock, of which 400,000 stock options were treated as an inducement grant and 50,000 stock options were from the Company’s equity incentive plan. The Company granted the options on January 10, 2019 with an exercise price of $0.717 per share, and will become 100% exercisable nine months after date of grant and have a maximum term of ten years. Upon termination, the options are exercisable for up to twelve months from the termination date and in no event later than ten years from the grant date.

Resignation of Chief Executive Officer, President and Director and Chief Financial Officer and Secretary

On December 12, 2018, Jim Schutz and Robert Miller resigned from their positions as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and President and Chief Financial Officer and Secretary, respectively. On the same date, Mr. Schutz also resigned from the Board.

In connection with Mr. Schutz’s resignation, the Company entered into a separation and mutual release agreement with Mr. Schutz on December 13, 2018, in which the Company agreed to pay him severance, consisting of $250,000, to be paid in two equal installments with the first half paid on December 14, 2018 and the second half to be paid with the next payroll after three months, $38,461 to compensate him for his unused paid time off, and continuation of dental, vision and health insurance until December 31, 2018. Mr. Schutz’s outstanding equity awards were accelerated to December 12, 2018 and remained exercisable until January 14, 2019. Mr. Schutz also agreed to aid with the transition for 30 calendar days. The options expired unexercised on January 14, 2019.

In connection with Mr. Miller’s resignation, the Company entered into a separation and mutual release agreement with Mr. Miller on December 13, 2018, in which the Company agreed to pay him severance, consisting of $225,000, to be paid in two equal installments with the first half paid on December 14, 2018 and the second half to be paid with the next payroll after three months, $38,461 to compensate him for his unused paid time off, and continuation of dental, vision and health insurance until December 31, 2018. Mr. Miller’s outstanding equity awards were accelerated to December 12, 2018 and remained exercisable until January 14, 2019. The options expired unexercised on January 14, 2019.

Other Matters

Sale of Unregistered Shares

On October 4, 2018, the Company sold 113,000 shares of common stock, at a price of $2.39 per share, through its At Market Issuance Sales Agreement with B. Riley FBR, Inc. for gross proceeds of $270,000 and net proceeds of $262,000 after deducting commissions and other offering expenses. This sale exceeded the aggregate market value of the Company’s securities sold during the period of twelve calendar months prior to the sale of one-third of the aggregate market value of its common stock held by non-affiliates, and thus, the 113,000 shares of common stock were unregistered. The Company could be liable in the event claims or suits for rescission are brought and successfully concluded for failure to register these securities or for acts or omissions constituting offenses under the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or applicable state securities laws. The Company could be liable for damages and penalties assessed by the SEC and state securities regulators. Accordingly, at December 31, 2018, the Company recorded a $270,000 liability in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Nasdaq Listing

On January 4, 2019, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, notifying the Company that, for the previous 30 consecutive business days, the Company failed to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), which requires the Company to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share for its common stock.

In accordance with Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), Nasdaq has granted the Company a period of 180 calendar days, or until July 3, 2019, to regain compliance with the Rule. The Company may regain compliance with the Rule at any time during this compliance period if the minimum bid price for its common stock is at least $1.00 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days.

The letter has no effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock at this time. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to regain compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the Listing Rule prior to the expiration of the compliance period, the Company may be eligible for additional time. To qualify, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and will need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse split, if necessary. If the Company meets these requirements, Nasdaq will inform the Company that it has been granted an additional 180 calendar days. However, if it appears to the Staff of Nasdaq that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is otherwise not eligible, Nasdaq will provide notice that our securities will be subject to delisting.

Note 6. Stockholders’ Equity

Authorized Capital

At the annual meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to its Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to increase the number of authorized common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, from 12,000,000 to a total of 24,000,000 shares. Effective September 13, 2018, the Company filed a certificate of amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in order to effect an increase of the total number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance to 24,000,000. Additionally, the Company is authorized to issue 714,286 shares of convertible preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share.

13

Sale of Common and Preferred Stock Units

On November 16, 2018, the Company entered into a placement agency agreement with Dawson James Securities, Inc. with respect to the issuance and sale of an aggregate of up to 7,300,000 units, each unit consisting of one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share or, in lieu of common stock, if purchasing common stock would result in the purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the outstanding common stock, shares of Series C convertible into shares of common stock, together with one half of one warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price equal to $1.00 per whole share, in a public offering. The public offering price for each unit was $1.00. The warrants offered in the public offering are Series C warrants and will terminate on the fifth anniversary of the date of issuance. Each full warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one share of common stock at an initial exercise price of $1.00 per share.

The closing of the offering occurred on November 21, 2018 and at such closing the Company sold 4,564,400 shares of common stock, 9.65 shares of Series C (convertible into 965,000 shares of common stock) and 2,764,700 warrants for gross proceeds of $5,530,000. The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the shares of common stock, or preferred stock, and the warrants was $4,742,000, after deducting placement agent commissions and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company.

Pursuant to the placement agency agreement, the Company agreed to pay Dawson James Securities, Inc. a cash fee equal to 8% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in this offering. The Company also agreed to pay fees and expenses of the placement agent, not to exceed $167,500, and to issue to Dawson James Securities, Inc., on the closing date, a unit purchase option for the purchase of up to 276,470 units, equal to 5% of the aggregate number of units sold in the public offering, with an exercise price of $1.25, or 125% of the price per unit. The Benchmark Company, LLC provided certain financial advisory services. As compensation for services provided, the Company made a cash payment of $74,000 and on November 16, 2018 issued 68,750 common stock purchase warrants. The common stock purchase warrants have an exercise price of $1.00 per share, become exercisable on the 180th day after the date of issuance and expire on November 16, 2023.

During the three months ended December 31, 2018, investors who participated in the transaction converted 8.10 shares of Series C into 810,000 shares of common stock.

Common Stock Issued to Services Providers

The Company entered into an agreement with Actual, Inc., for certain marketing and branding consulting services. In connection with the agreement, the Company pays a portion of the service fees in common stock. On July 27, 2017, the Company issued 2,570 shares of restricted common stock valued at $6.74 per share, and on August 22, 2017, the Company issued 3,133 shares of restricted common stock valued at $5.53 per share.

Accordingly, during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded $28,000 and $62,000, respectively, of expense related to common stock issued. During the nine months ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded $44,000 of expense related to common stock issued.

Note 8. Income Taxes

The Company has completed a study to assess whether a change in control has occurred or whether there have been multiple changes of control since the Company’s formation through March 31, 2018. The Company determined, based on the results of the study, no change in control occurred for purposes of Internal Revenue Code Section 382. The Company, after considering all available evidence, fully reserved for these and its other deferred tax assets since it is more likely than not such benefits will not be realized in future periods. The Company has incurred losses for both financial reporting and income tax purposes for the year ended March 31, 2018. Accordingly, the Company is continuing to fully reserve for its deferred tax assets. The Company will continue to evaluate its deferred tax assets to determine whether any changes in circumstances could affect the realization of their future benefit. If it is determined in future periods that portions of the Company’s deferred income tax assets satisfy the realization standards, the valuation allowance will be reduced accordingly.

The Company only recognizes tax benefits from an uncertain tax position if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. To date, the Company has not recognized such tax benefits in its consolidated financial statements.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Act. The Tax Act reduces the federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, effective January 1, 2018, which the Company expects will positively impact its future effective tax rate and after-tax earnings in the United States. The Company recognized a decrease related to its federal deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, before the valuation allowance. Because a change in the valuation allowance completely offsets the change in deferred taxes, there was no impact on the consolidated financial statements related to the rate change.

The Company may also be affected by certain other aspects of the Tax Act, including, without limitation, provisions regarding repatriation of accumulated foreign earnings and deductibility of capital expenditures. However, these assessments are based on preliminary review and analysis of the Tax Act and are subject to change as the Company continues to evaluate these highly complex rules as additional interpretive guidance is issued. The Company is also in the process of determining the impacts of the new Global Intangibles Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) tax law and has not yet included any potential GILTI tax or elected any related accounting policy.

16

Also on December 22, 2017, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on accounting for the impact of the Tax Act. As permitted by SAB 118, both of the tax benefits recorded by the Company for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 represent provisional amounts based on its current best estimates. Any adjustments made to those provisional amounts will be included in income from operations and recorded as an adjustment to tax expense through the fiscal year ending March 31, 2019. The recorded, provisional amounts reflect assumptions made based upon our current interpretation of the Tax Act, and may change as the Company receives additional clarification and guidance in the form of technical corrections to the Tax Act or regulations issued by the U.S. Treasury.

The Company does not have any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible the total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits will increase or decrease within twelve months of March 31, 2018. The unrecognized tax benefits may increase or change during the next year for items that arise in the ordinary course of business.

To date, we have obtained 21 U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, clearances permitting the sale of products as medical devices for Section 510(k) of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act in the United States.

Outside the United States, we sell products for dermatological and advanced tissue care with a European Conformity marking, Conformité Européenne, or CE. These CEs cover 25 products in 48 countries with various approvals in Brazil, China, Southeast Asia, South Korea, India, Australia, New Zealand, and the Middle East.

Business Channels

Our core market differentiation is based on being the leading developer and producer of stabilized hypochlorous acid, or HOCl, solutions. HOCl is known to be among the safest and most-effective ways to relieve itch, inflammation and burns while stimulating natural healing through increased oxygenation and eliminating persistent microorganisms and biofilms.

Our core market includes patients who suffer from various skin diseases, including dermatoses, acne, scarring, skin-barrier and scaly skin conditions. Our secondary market includes eye-hygiene and acute care markets. These conditions impact patients worldwide who have had to live with less than optimal solutions or ones that come with significant side effects. Skin conditions can have significant, multi-dimensional effects on quality of life, including on patient’s physical, functional and emotional well-being.

19

We have also built on our HOCl technology foundation by adding two complementary technology platforms: Lipogrid® Skin Barrier solutions and Exuvimax Skin de-scaling solutions. Lipogrid is a lipid structural matrix of solid lipid particles and vesicles containing phospholipids, ceramides, fatty acids and cholesterol-type stabilizers that deliver building blocks to the dermis and protect the skin. Exuvimax contains a combination of dicaprylyl carbonate (Cetiol® Oil) and dimethicones that provide a patented formulation designed for a very effective but safe keratolytic effect which is the shedding of the top layer of skin. Our product Loyon® is based on the Exuvimax technology and its key benefit is to remove scale and therefore allow the topical treatments to work more effectively and faster on the underlying condition.

Dermatology

In the United States, we sell into dermatology markets with a sales team that visits or calls dermatologists. Our dermatology products are primarily purchased by distributors, wholesalers, and pharmacies.

Although specific customer requirements can vary depending on applications, customers generally demand quality, innovation, affordability and clinically-supported efficacy. We have responded to these customer demands by introducing new products that treat persistent and common dermatological afflictions, as well as promote healing and improve results for patients opting for cosmetic dermatology procedures. We are strategically focused on introducing innovative new products that are supported by human clinical data with applications that address specific dermatological procedures currently in demand. In addition, we look for markets where we can provide effective product line extensions and pricing to new product families. In the future, to increase market penetration beyond marketing to core dermatologists, we are also evaluating how our products fit into the aesthetic dermatologists and plastic surgeons practice.

We seek to extend and expand our strong ongoing relationships with customers through new products, sales of existing products, ongoing training and support, and distribution of skincare products. We primarily target practitioners through office visits, workshops, trade shows, webinars and trade journals. We also market to potential patients through brochures, workshops and websites. In addition, we offer clinical forums with recognized expert panelists to promote advanced treatment.

Eye Care and Advanced Tissue Care

Our eye care and advanced tissue care products provide patients similar benefits to those in dermatology. We support the eye care and advanced tissue care markets with a dedicated in-house sales force and through an inside call center. We have also entered into strategic partnerships with respected and influential physicians and surgeons to promote our products. Our eye care products include prescription and dispensing solutions prescribed mainly by ophthalmologists and optometrists supported by pharmacies and, in some cases, sold through wholesale networks. Our tissue care products are primarily purchased by hospitals, physicians, nurses, and other healthcare practitioners.

Animal Health Care

Our animal health care products provide similar benefits to those in human dermatology. For our animal health products, we partnered with Manna Pro Products, LLC to bring relief to pets and peace of mind to their owners. Manna Pro distributes non-prescription products to national pet store retail chains, farm animal specialty stores, farm animal veterinarians, grocery stores and mass retailers in the United States and Canada. Through Manna Pro, we primarily target marketing efforts to veterinarians through trade shows and to customers through social media.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Three Months Ended December 31, 2018 and 2017

Total revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2018 of $5,280,000 increased by $437,000, or 9%, as compared to $4,843,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2017. Product revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2018 of $5,045,000 increased by $398,000, or 9%, as compared to $4,647,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2017. This increase was primarily the result of growth in product revenue of $94,000, or 3%, in the United States, growth of product revenue of $157,000, or 20%, in Latin America, and growth of product revenue of $147,000, or 15%, in Europe and the Rest of World.

Product revenues in the United States for the three months ended December 31, 2018 of $2,977,000 increased by $94,000, or 3%, as compared to $2,883,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2017. This increase was the result of a $205,000, or 95%, increase in sales of our animal health care products, an increase of $120,000, or 26%, in sales of our acute care products, and a decrease of $231,000, or 10%, in sales of our dermatology products.

As a result of the asset purchase agreement and arrangement we entered into on October 27, 2016 with Invekra, we will continue to supply Invekra with product at a reduced price until they set up their manufacturing facility. We expect our revenues in Latin America will decrease significantly once Invekra has set up their manufacturing facility. During the three months ended December 31, 2018, we reported $715,000 of Latin America product revenue related to Invekra as compared to $772,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2017. Additionally, we reported $214,000 of Latin America product revenue related to dermatology products sold in Brazil.

Product revenue in Europe and the Rest of the World for the three months ended December 31, 2018 of $1,139,000 increased by $147,000, or 15%, as compared to $992,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2017. This increase was mostly the result of increases in Europe and India, partly offset by decreases in the Middle East, the Far East and New Zealand.

The following table shows our product revenues by geographic region:

	Three Months Ended December 31,

Europe and Rest of the World		1,139,000		992,000		147,000		15%
Total	$	5,045,000	$	4,647,000	$	398,000		9%

Service revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2018 of $235,000 increased by $39,000, or 20%, when compared to $196,000 in the prior period. The increase was primarily the result of higher volume of laboratory tests and services in the United States. Additionally, during the three months ended December 31, 2018, we recorded service revenue related to technical services provided to Invekra in the amount of $14,000.

Gross Profit

For the three months ended December 31, 2018, we reported total revenues of $5,280,000 and total cost of revenues of $2,433,000, resulting in total gross profit of $2,847,000 or 54% of total revenues, compared to a gross profit of $2,368,000 or 49% of total revenues, for the same period in the prior year.

For the three months ended December 31, 2018, we reported product revenues of $5,045,000 and cost of product revenues of $2,269,000, resulting in product gross profit of $2,776,000, or 55% of product revenues, compared to product gross profit of $2,339,000, or 50% of product revenues, for the same period in the prior year. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of product revenues was primarily due to a decrease in rebate costs in the current period.

For the three months ended December 31, 2018, we reported service revenues of $235,000 and cost of service revenues of $164,000, resulting in service gross profit of $71,000, or 30% of service revenues, compared to service gross profit of $29,000, or 15% of service revenues, for the same period in the prior year.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2018 of $4,746,000 decreased by $473,000, or 9%, when compared to $5,219,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2017. The decrease is primarily the result of lower stock compensation costs of $649,000, and lower legal costs of $99,000, offset by $475,000 of severance costs incurred related to the resignation of the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2018 of $7,000 decreased by $4,000 when compared to $11,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2017. The decrease in interest expense relates primarily to capital leases and insurance premiums financed.

Interest Income

Interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2018 of $37,000 increased by $23,000 when compared to $14,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2017. The increase is primarily due to interest income reported related to a discount on deferred revenue from our agreement with Invekra.  

Other Income

Other expense for the three months ended December 31, 2018 of $22,000 increased by $12,000 when compared to other expense of $10,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2017. The increase in other expense relates primarily to fluctuations in foreign exchange and state franchise taxes.

Net Loss

Net Loss for the three months ended December 31, 2018 of $2,298,000 decreased $889,000, when compared to net loss of $3,187,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2017. The decrease in net loss is primarily due to a decrease of operating losses, caused by lower stock compensation expenses of $692,000, higher sales and gross profitability, offset by severance costs incurred related to the resignation of the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended December 31, 2018 and 2017

22

As a result of the asset purchase agreement and arrangement we entered into on October 27, 2016 with Invekra, we will continue to supply Invekra with product at a reduced price until they set up their manufacturing facility. We expect our revenues in Latin America will decrease significantly once Invekra has set up their manufacturing facility. During the nine months ended December 31, 2018, we reported $2,543,000 of Latin America product revenue related to Invekra as compared to $2,095,000 during the nine months ended December 31, 2017.

The decrease in net loss is primarily due to a decrease of operating losses, caused by lower stock compensation expenses of $258,000, higher sales and gross profitability, offset by severance costs incurred related to the resignation of the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We reported a net loss of $8,576,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2018. At December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2018, our accumulated deficit amounted to $166,016,000 and $157,440,000, respectively. We had working capital of $11,254,000 and $12,993,000 as of December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2018, respectively.

We expect to continue incurring losses for the foreseeable future and will need to raise additional capital to pursue our product development initiatives, to penetrate markets for the sale of our products and to continue as a going concern. We cannot provide any assurances that we will be able to raise additional capital.

Management believes that we have access to capital resources through possible public or private equity offerings, debt financings, corporate collaborations or other means; however, we cannot provide any assurances that new financings will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. If the economic climate in the U.S. deteriorates, our ability to raise additional capital could be negatively impacted. If we are unable to secure additional capital, we may be required to take additional measures to reduce costs in order to conserve our cash in amounts sufficient to sustain operations and meet our obligations. These measures could cause significant delays in our continued efforts to commercialize our products, which is critical to the realization of our business plan and our future operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Sources of Liquidity

As of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $6,496,000. Since our inception, substantially all of our operations have been financed through sales of equity securities. Other sources of financing that we have used to date include our revenues, as well as various loans and the sale of certain Latin American assets to Invekra.

Since January 1, 2017, substantially all of our operations have been financed through the following transactions:

· proceeds of $150,000 received from the exercise of common stock purchase warrants and options;

· net proceeds of $1,925,000 received from the sale of common stock through our At Market Issuance Sales Agreement dated December 8, 2017;

· net proceeds of $4,500,000 received from the sale of common stock through a registered direct offering which closed on March 6, 2018; and

· net proceeds of $4,742,000 received from the sale of common stock and preferred stock units through a public offering which closed on November 21, 2018.

24

Cash Flows

As of December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $6,496,000, compared to $10,066,000 as of March 31, 2018.

Net cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended December 31, 2018 was $8,971,000, primarily due to our net loss of $8,576,000 offset by non-cash stock compensation of $1,334,000 in the period. Additionally, we had an increase in accounts receivable of $1,628,000 and an increase of $514,000 in inventories both related to an increase in sales.

Net cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended December 31, 2017 was $9,391,000, primarily due to our net loss of $9,565,000 offset by stock related compensation of $1,592,000 in the period. Additionally, we had increases in prepaid expenses of $951,000 mostly related to taxes in Mexico.

Net cash used in investing activities was $123,000 for nine months ended December 31, 2018, primarily related to the purchase of equipment.

Net cash used in investing activities was $193,000 for nine months ended December 31, 2017, primarily related to the purchase of equipment.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $5,572,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2018, primarily related to net proceeds from the sale of common stock of $957,000 from the Company’s At Market Issuance Sales Agreement, with B. Riley FBR, Inc., and net proceeds of $4,742,000 from a public offering placed by Dawson James Securities, Inc., offset by principal payments on debt and capital leases of $397,000.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $802,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2017, primarily related to net proceeds from the sale of common stock of $968,000, proceeds of $52,000 from the exercise of common stock purchase warrants and options, offset by principal payments on debt and capital leases of $218,000.

Material Trends and Uncertainties

We expect to continue incurring losses for the foreseeable future and will need to raise additional capital to pursue our product development initiatives, to penetrate markets for the sale of our products and to continue as a going concern. We cannot provide any assurances that we will be able to raise additional capital as we need it.

Management believes that we have access to capital resources through possible public or private equity offerings, debt financings, corporate collaborations or other means; however, we cannot provide any assurances that new financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. If the economic climate in the U.S. deteriorates, our ability to raise additional capital could be negatively impacted. If we are unable to secure additional capital, we may be required to curtail our research and development and other business initiatives and take additional measures to reduce costs in order to conserve our cash in amounts sufficient to sustain operations and meet our obligations. These measures could cause significant delays in our continued efforts to commercialize our products, which is critical to the realization of our business plan and our future operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Consistent with other pharmaceutical companies in the United States, we experience seasonal fluctuations in the first quarter of each year, or our fourth fiscal quarter. This decrease in sales of pharmaceutical products is due to patients facing the need to satisfy health insurance deductibles, which are reset at the beginning of each year and adjusting to changing copays.

Healthcare providers and insurers heavily influence the price patients pay for our products. Generally, insurers cover a lower percentage of our products compared to other medical products making our products seem relatively more expensive than other medical care. As a result, to remain competitive, we offer rebates on our products directly to patients. Most patients use these rebates to make our products more affordable. While we believe these rebates are necessary for many patients to buy our products and without them our revenues would likely decline, the impact of rebates on our bottom line has been significant. For example, in the three months ended December 31, 2018, dermatology rebates amounted to $1,249,000 and for the nine months ended December 31, 2018, dermatology rebates amounted to $4,567,000.

We continue to work with healthcare providers, insurers, third-party payors, pharmacies and others to manage pricing of our products to the consumer and to reduce the impact of rebates on our overall revenue. However, there is no guarantee we will be successful in reducing patient rebate use. Additionally, the legal landscape in healthcare is constantly changing. Adoption of new legislation at the federal or state level could further affect demand for, or pricing of, our products. For example, we face uncertainties due to federal legislative and administrative efforts to repeal, substantially modify or invalidate some or all of the provisions of the Affordable Care Act, or ACA, which could leave more patients without insurance coverage, which, in turn, could reduce the price patients are willing to pay for our products if they must bear the entire cost.

25

During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2018, revenue from sales to our Latin America partner Invekra amounted to approximately 14% and 17% of our total revenue, respectively. We will continue to supply products to Invekra at a reduced price from list prices, pursuant to our contractual obligations for a transition period until, at the latest, October 27, 2020, while Invekra builds its own manufacturing lines. However, we expect that our future revenues from Latin American sales will be substantially reduced.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions include reserves and write-downs related to receivables and inventories, the recoverability of long-lived assets, the valuation allowance related to our deferred tax assets, the valuation of equity and derivative instruments, debt discounts, the valuation of investments and the estimated amortization periods of upfront product licensing fees received from customers.

Off-Balance Sheet Transactions

We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As a smaller reporting company, we are electing scaled disclosure reporting obligations and therefore are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Accordingly, our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to meet reasonable assurance standards. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management was necessarily required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2018.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

On December 11, 2018, the Company’s Board appointed Mr. Frederick (Bubba) Sandford as its Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer.

The change in our management and our Board did not have an impact on our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2018 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

On occasion, we may be involved in legal matters arising in the ordinary course of our business, including matters involving proprietary technology. While management believes that such matters are currently insignificant, matters arising in the ordinary course of business for which we are or could become involved in litigation may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of comprehensive loss.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Except as follows, there have been no material changes from risk factors previously disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, as filed with the SEC on June 26, 2018 and our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, as filed with the SEC on November 8, 2018.

As of December 31, 2018, we may not have sufficient cash to continue operations for the next six to twelve months.

As of December 31, 2018, we had $6,496,000 in cash and cash equivalents. We had working capital of $11,254,000 and $12,993,000 as of December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2018, respectively. We incurred net losses of $2,298,000, $8,576,000 and $14,328,000 during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2018 and the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, respectively. We used net cash of $8,971,000 in operating activities during the nine months ended December 31, 2018. If our sales revenues do not increase or if we do not manage our expenses and cash flow in the near future, we may be required to obtain additional cash for operations from non-working capital sources, which may not be available, in which case we would have to significantly decrease or cease operations. The sale of additional equity or convertible debt securities would result in additional dilution to our stockholders, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants that could restrict our operations or finances. Financing, if necessary, may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we cannot raise funds on acceptable terms or achieve positive cash flow, we may not be able to continue to conduct operations, develop new products, grow market share, to take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements, any of which would negatively impact our business, operating results and financial condition.

Our ability to use shares of our common stock to carry out our business plan, to offer stock as a form of compensation or to use stock to meet our financial obligations may be diminished.

We currently have 24,000,000 shares of authorized common stock. As of December 31, 2018, we had 11,972,328 shares of common stock outstanding and have committed to issue 155,000 shares of common stock upon conversion of 1.55 shares of Series C and approximately 5,700,000 shares of common stock upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants. It is possible that some or all of the currently outstanding options and warrants will not be exercised and the shares of common stock we have reserved to satisfy our obligations under the terms of those securities may never be issued. If options or warrants expire prior to exercise, then the shares we have reserved in the event they are exercised may be used for other purposes. Having a limited number of authorized shares of common stock may diminish our ability to execute our business plan, to offer stock or stock options as part of a competitive compensation package for attracting and retaining the highly skilled officers, directors and employees on which our success relies, or to issue equity securities in the future to allow the Company flexibility in meeting our routine financial obligations, raising capital if needed and/or issuing equity securities to acquire assets or businesses or to engage in strategic collaborations where the transaction might be improved for us by issuing equity securities. This may have a material adverse effect on our revenues, financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Other than as previously disclosed, we did not issue unregistered equity securities during the quarter ended December 31, 2018.

27

Item 3. Default Upon Senior Securities

We did not default upon any senior securities during the quarter ended December 31, 2018.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures

Not applicable.

Item 5. Other Information

Effective December 11, 2018, our Board appointed Bubba Sandford as our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer. On December 12, 2018, Jim Schutz and Robert Miller resigned from their positions as our Chief Executive Officer and President and Chief Financial Officer and Secretary, respectively. On the same date, Mr. Schutz also resigned from the Board. Mr. Sandford was appointed as a Class III director of the Board on December 14, 2018.

Mr. Sandford, 57, served as a Navy SEAL and has over 30 years of experience leading companies in several industries and at various stages, including turnarounds. Most recently, Mr. Sandford transformed the underperforming, public staffing company, Command Center, Inc., into a profitable enterprise, with nearly $100 million in revenue, 67 on-demand labor stores in 22 states and approximately 34,000 workers. During his tenure at Command Center, he successfully led the Company to uplist on Nasdaq, and he increased shareholder value by 150% while improving gross margins to industry-leading standards.

We look forward to working with Mr. Sandford as he brings operational and leadership experience to our Board.
