VERITY CORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
AS OF JUNE 30, 2014
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACK GROUND
OVERVIEW
Verity Corp. (the “Company”) is a natural-oriented, technologically sophisticated Agribusiness Services company. The Company’s Corporate Goal is to provide consumers with safe, high-quality and nutritious food sources and high-quality water for drinking and for agricultural and livestock production. The Company has a portfolio of proprietary natural (oriented) products and services focused from Soil to Plate to fulfill its Corporate Goal.
HISTORY AND PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Verity’s predecessor company Verity Farms, LLC was incorporated in July 2004. Since then the Company has taken its sustainable crop and livestock production protocols and developed:
i) | a portfolio of (hard) products that can be widely used by either conventional or organic/non-GMO farms to: |
a) | improve the quality of grain, livestock & aquaculture production; | |
b) | reduce growing costs; while | |
c) | maintaining production yields. |
ii) | a fully integrated set of Soil and Plant Health Programs that remove substantial barrier for farmers desiring to convert conventional farms into farms with healthy soil and sustainable, non-GMO crop and livestock production based upon natural practices and limited chemical applications. |
These products and programs position Verity as a leader & one-stop farming & food production resource addressing powerful & accelerating trends that are altering production methods in the $53 billion Food Market.
ORGANIZATION & OPERATIONS
The Company is organized into 3 divisions: Verity Agriculture Productions & Soil Preservation; Verity Water Systems; and Verity Consumer Products. These distinct divisions are interlinked by one sales team, located in major agricultural production markets, to provide: farmers, ranchers, food distributors & processors and food manufacturers and grocery retailers a wide spectrum of product & service solutions to address their issues in production, supply, and market positioning. Verity has integrated operations at its Corporate Headquarters, in Sioux Falls, South Dakota and in Pelham Georgia, which provides Product Distribution, Sales, and Crop Advisory Services in Georgia for the Southeast U.S. In order to focus the Company’s limited resources, Verity’s Consumer products remains in test / pre-production mode. The Company’s Agriculture Production & Soil Preservation Division and Water Systems Division are moving from a limited “Bottom Up” Sales mode to Mass Commercialization through the establishment of strategic relationships .
STRATEGY
Verity changed its top management and corporate organization in Q1 FY2014. This change is accompanied by a change in focus and allocation of resources that had gained momentum in preceding years. The prior CEO has retired from day-to-day operational responsibilities, is an advisor and consultant to the Company, and remains a member of Verity’s Board of Directors.
From FY 2004 through FY 2013, Verity focused on:
a) | Development of a distinctive portfolio of unique and innovative products and services. | |
b) | Development of a sales & distribution network of Verity representatives that: i) use the Verity Agriculture & Soil Preservation Products and Services in their family farms; and ii) market and sell Verity Products and Services in the farming communities in their regions. |
F-4 |
STRATEGY (Cont.)
In FY 2014, the Company has: rolled out a distinctive line of Hard Products for use by family farmers that will also appeal to Agribusinesses that have integrated production and processing operations. The Company has focused management attention and Company resources to implementing a new “Top Down” strategy that will complement the Company’s continuing “Bottom Up” strategy. The “Bottom Up” strategy has created a network of family farmers / salesmen that are Verity’s eyes, ears, voice and hands in their regions. This Sales Force provides Verity with: a) regional farming and agribusiness intelligence and has identified prospective Strategic Customer & Distribution opportunities in their regions and b) active family farmers using, selling and distributing Verity Products & Services in their regions.
The Company’s new “Top Down” strategy is focusing on:
Part A) | Identifying strategic customer & relationship prospects and introducing Verity’s easy-to-understand and purchase line of agriculture production “Hard Products”. |
Part B) | Introducing Verity Corporation and its diverse portfolio of Products and Services to these strategic customers & relationship prospects. |
Part A of the Top Down Strategy is expected to result in meaningful increases in FY2014 revenue. Part B of the Top Down Strategy is expected to result in customer and business partnership relationships that will strategically expand Verity’s network of business relationships and sales of the full line of Verity Products and Services. Part B is expected to result in a meaningful increase in revenue in the intermediate term of FY2014 & FY2015.
COMPETITION
Verity Corp. operates in environments of heavy competition. However, the Company’s Products & Services have competitive advantages that can propel their growth with proper resources and effective management. Obtaining a small fraction of market share will provide Verity with substantial growth opportunities
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) under the accrual basis of accounting.
Use of Estimates
In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. These accounts and estimates include, but are not limited to, the valuation of accounts receivables, inventories, prepaid expenses, other receivables, investment in partnership, liabilities and the estimation on useful lives of property, and plant and equipment. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries.
All significant inter-company balances and transactions within the Company and subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date of such investments.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by actively pursuing past due accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established and determined based on managements’ assessment of the accounts receivables collectibles. Judgment is required in assessing the amount of the allowance. The Company considers the historical level of credit losses and applies percentages to different receivables categories. The Company makes judgments about the creditworthiness of each customer based on ongoing credit evaluations, and monitors current economic trends that might impact the level of credit losses in the future. If the financial condition of the customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, a larger allowance may be required.
F-5 |
Accounts Receivable (cont.)
Based on the above assessment, during the reporting periods, management establishes the general provisioning policy to make an allowance equivalent to approximately 5% of the gross amount of accounts receivables. Additional specific provision is made against accounts receivables to the extent which they are considered to be doubtful.
Historically, losses from uncollectible accounts have not significantly deviated from the general allowance estimated by management and no significant additional bad debts have been written off directly to net income. There were no changes in the general provisioning policy in the past since establishment and management considers that the aforementioned general provisioning policy is adequate, not excessive and does not expect to change this established policy in the near future. As of June 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013, the Company recorded an allowance for uncollectible accounts in the amounts of $8,584 and $8,584, respectively.
Inventories
Inventories consist of raw materials and finished goods and goods available for resale, which are valued at lower of cost or market value, cost being determined on the first-in, first-out method. The Company periodically reviews historical sales activity to determine excess, slow moving items and potentially obsolete items and also evaluates the impact of any anticipated changes in future demand. The Company provides inventory allowances based on excess and obsolete inventories determined principally by customer demand, which was approximately 5% of ending inventories at the reporting periods. The spoilage will be written-off directly to the profit and loss when it occurs. As of June 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013, the Company recorded an allowance for obsolete inventories in the amounts of $36,241 and $33,630, respectively.
Fixed Assets, Net
Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational. There are no estimated residual values taken into account.
Depreciable life | Residual value | |||||
Software and website development | 3 years | 0 | % | |||
Machinery and Equipment | 5 years | 0 | % | |||
Furniture and fixtures | 7 years | 0 | % |
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs that do not make the fixed asset more useful or prolong its useful life are expensed as incurred.
Impairment of Long Lived Assets
The Company evaluated the recoverability of its property, plant, equipment, and other long-lived assets in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment” (“ASC 360”), which requires recognition of impairment of long-lived assets in the event the net book value of such assets exceed the estimated future undiscounted cash flows attributable to such assets or the business to which such intangible assets relate. The Company evaluated the recoverability of the fixed assets and did not recognize any impairment during the nine months ended June 30, 2014.
Fair Value for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB ASC (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
Level 1 | Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. |
Level 2 | Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. |
Level 3 | Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data. |
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and accounts payable approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.
F-6 |
The Company does not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or a non-recurring basis, consequently, the Company did not have any fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value at June 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013 nor gains or losses are reported in the statement of operations that are attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to those assets and liabilities still held at the reporting date for the for the nine months ended June 30, 2014.
Revenue Recognition
The Company derives revenues from the sale of agricultural products, animal feeds, consulting services, and various water units. In accordance with guidance by paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB ASC for revenue recognition, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, transfer of title has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company’s sales arrangements are not subject to warranty.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold consists primarily of material costs which are directly attributable to the manufacture of products, to the products held for resale and to the provision of services.
Income Taxes
The Company adopts the ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes ” regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes which prescribes the recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. In addition, the guidance requires the determination of whether the benefits of tax positions will be more likely than not sustained upon audit based upon the technical merits of the tax position. For tax positions that are determined to be more likely than not sustained upon audit, a company recognizes the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement in the financial statements. For tax positions that are not determined to be more likely than not sustained upon audit, a company does not recognize any portion of the benefit in the financial statements. The guidance provides for de-recognition, classification, penalties and interest, accounting in interim periods and disclosure.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to be applied to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the statement of income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future deductibility is uncertain.
Uncertain Tax Positions
The Company did not take any uncertain tax positions and had no adjustments to unrecognized income tax liabilities or benefits pursuant to the provisions of Section 740-10-25 for the nine months ended June 30, 2014.
Comprehensive income
The Company adopted FASB Accounting Standards Codification 220 “Comprehensive Income” (ASC “220”) which establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during the year from non-owner sources. There are no items of comprehensive income (loss) applicable to the Company during the years covered in the consolidated financial statements.
Off-balance sheet arrangements
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Related Parties
The Company follows subtopic 850-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Pursuant to Section 850-10-20 the Related parties include: a). affiliates of the Company; b). entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; c). trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; d). principal owners of the Company; e). management of the Company; f). other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g). other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.

The consolidated financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: a). the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b). a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; c). the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d). amounts due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.
Commitments and Contingencies
The Company follows subtopic 450-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report accounting for contingencies. Certain conditions may exist as of the date the consolidated financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. Management does not believe, based upon information available at this time that these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations or consolidated cash flows. However, there is no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, consolidated financial position, and consolidated results of operations or consolidated cash flows.
Subsequent Events
The Company adopted FASB Accounting Standards Codification 855 “Subsequent Events” (“ASC 855”) to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date, but before the financial statements are issued or available to be issued.
Recently issued accounting standards
In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. The amendments in this Update change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations in Subtopic 205-20.
Under the new guidance, a discontinued operation is defined as a disposal of a component or group of components that is disposed of or is classified as held for sale and “represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results.” The ASU states that a strategic shift could include a disposal of (i) a major geographical area of operations, (ii) a major line of business, (iii) a major equity method investment, or (iv) other major parts of an entity. Although “major” is not defined, the standard provides examples of when a disposal qualifies as a discontinued operation.
The ASU also requires additional disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide more information about the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of discontinued operations. In addition, the ASU requires disclosure of the pre-tax profit or loss attributable to a disposal of an individually significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations presentation in the financial statements.
The ASU is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those years.
In May 2014, the FASB has issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”. The guidance in this update supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition.” In addition, the existing requirements for the recognition of a gain or loss on the transfer of nonfinancial assets that are not in a contract with a customer (for example, assets within the scope of Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, and intangible assets within the scope of Topic 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other) are amended to be consistent with the guidance on recognition and measurement (including the constraint on revenue) in this Update. Under the new guidance, an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The amendments in ASU No, 2014-09 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is not permitted. We do not believe the adoption of this update will have a material impact on our financial statements.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
The Company’s financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. At June 30, 2014, the Company had a retained deficit of $11,413,821 and current liabilities in excess of current assets by $232,464. During the nine months ended June 30, 2014, the Company incurred a net loss of $803,399 and incurred negative cash flows from operations of $492,622. These factors create an uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to increase revenues, decrease or contain costs and achieve profitable operations. In this regard, Company’s management is focused on the development and expansion of the Company’s technology, including water filtration and purification, bio-information and life sciences, the deployment of its technology platform in the agricultural medical fields, and the licensing of patents, as well as exploring strategic acquisitions in the technology field. Should the Company’s financial resources prove inadequate to meet the Company’s needs before additional revenue sources can be realized, the Company may raise additional funds through loans or through sales of common or preferred stock. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving profitable operations or in raising any additional capital.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q and other reports filed by Verity Corp. (the “Company”) from time to time with the SEC (collectively, the “Filings”) contain or may contain forward-looking statements and information that are based upon beliefs of, and information currently available to, the Company’s management. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. We have attempted to identify forward-looking statements by terminology including “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “can,” “continue,” “could,” “estimates,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “potential,” “predict,” “should” or “will” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions; uncertainties and other factors may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels or activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Our expectations are as of the date this Form 10-Q is filed, and we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is filed to confirm these statements to actual results, unless required by law.
Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, the Company does not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments and assumptions are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Our financial statements would be affected to the extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual results. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require management’s judgment in its application. There are also areas in which management’s judgment in selecting any available alternative would produce a materially different result. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.

The Company’s Corporate Goal is to provide consumers with safe, high-quality and nutritious food sources and high-quality water for drinking and for agricultural and livestock production. The Company has a portfolio of proprietary natural products and services focused from Soil to Plate Food Production to fulfill its Corporate Goal.
HISTORY AND PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Verity’s predecessor company Verity Farms, LLC was incorporated in July 2004. Since then the Company has taken its sustainable crop and livestock production protocols and developed:
a. | a portfolio of best-in-market hard products that can be widely used by either conventional or organic/non-GMO farms to: |
d) | improve the quality of grain, livestock & aquaculture production; | |
e) | reduce growing costs; while | |
f) | maintaining production yields. |
b. | a fully integrated set of Soil and Plant Health Programs that remove substantial barrier for farmers desiring to convert conventional farms into farms with healthy soil and sustainable, non-GMO crop and livestock production based upon natural practices and limited chemical applications. |
These products and programs position Verity as a leader & one-stop farming & food production resource addressing powerful & accelerating trends that are altering production methods in the Agriculture and Food Market.
ORGANIZATION & OPERATIONS
The Company is organized into 3 divisions: Verity Agriculture Products & Soil Preservation; Verity Water Systems; and Verity Consumer Products. These distinct divisions work are interlinked by one sales team, located, across the US, in major agricultural production markets, to provide: farmers, ranchers, food distributors & processors and food manufacturers and grocery retailers a wide spectrum of product & service solutions to address their production and supply issues, and market positioning. Verity has integrated operations at its Corporate Headquarters, in Sioux Falls, South Dakota and in Pelham Georgia, which provides Product Distribution, Sales, and Crop Advisory Services in Georgia for the Southeast U.S. In order to focus the Company’s limited resources, Verity’s Consumer Products Division remains in test / pre-production mode. The Company’s Agriculture Products & Soil Preservation Division and Water Systems Division are moving from a limited “Bottom Up” Sales mode to mass commercialization through the establishment of strategic relationships.

STRATEGY
Verity changed its top management and corporate organization in Q1 FY2014. This change is accompanied by a change in focus and allocation of resources that have gained momentum in preceding years.
From FY 2004 through FY 2013, Verity focused on:
a) | Development of a distinctive portfolio of unique and innovative products and services. | |
b) | Development of a sales & distribution network of Verity representatives that: i) use the Verity Agriculture & Soil Preservation Products and Services in their family farms; and ii) market and sell Verity Products and Services in the farming communities in their regions. |
In FY 2014, the Company has: rolled out a distinctive “best-in-market” line of Hard Products for use by farmers of any size, from family farms to large integrated agribusiness companies. The Company has focused management attention & Company resources to implementing a new “Top Down” strategy that will compliment the Company’s continuing “Bottom Up” strategy. The “Bottom Up” strategy has created a network of family farmers / salesmen that are Verity’s eyes, ears, voice and hands in their regions. This Sales Force provides Verity with: a) regional farming and agribusiness intelligence and has identified prospective Strategic Customer & Distribution opportunities in their regions; and b) active family farmers using, selling and distributing Verity Products & Services to the farmers in their regions.
The Company’s new “Top Down” strategy is focusing on:
Part A) | Identifying strategic customer & relationship prospects and introducing Verity’s easy-to-understand and purchase line of agriculture production “Hard Products” to them; and |
Part B) | Introducing Verity Corporation and its diverse portfolio of Products and Services to these strategic customers & relationship prospects. |
Part A of the Top Down Strategy is expected to result in meaningful increases in near-term sales in FY2014. Part B of the Top Down Strategy is expected to result in customer and business partnership relationships that will strategically expand Verity’s network of business relationships and sales of the full line of Verity Products and Services. Part B is expected to result in a meaningful increase in sales in the intermediate term of FY2014 & FY2015.
COMPETITION
Verity Corporation operates in environments of heavy competition. However, the Company’s Products & Services have competitive advantages that can propel their growth with proper resources and effective management. Obtaining a small fraction of market share will provide Verity with substantial growth opportunities.

Results of Operations
For the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2014 compared with the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2014.
Revenues
Revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2014 totaled $2,440,336 as compared to $2,108,885 for the nine months ended June 30, 2014. Revenues increased 15.72% as compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2013.

Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold for the nine months ended June 30, 2014 was $1,347,798 as compared to $1,151,874 for the nine months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in cost of goods sold is due to increased sales. Gross Margin for the nine months ended June 30, 2014 was 45%. And Gross Margin for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 was 45%. Gross Margin percentages have maintained at 45% for the nine months ended June 30.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 2014 totaled $1,869,235 as compared to $1,980,444 for the nine months ended June 30, 2013. The decrease in operating expenses is directly related to a reduction in consulting and professional fees of $385,737. The reduction in consulting and professional fees is offset by an increase in payroll expenses of $282,677 and in increase in travel of $38,958. Research and Development expenses increased $12,532 during the nine months ended June 30, 2014. Marketing and advertising expenses decreased $18,826, rent decreased $12,795, management fees decreased $41,265 and all other expenses increased $13,247.
Interest Expense
Interest Expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2014 was $34,886 as compared to $82,141 for the nine months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease in interest expense is directly related to the return of land and building to a board member that resulted in a reduction of accrued interest due of $232,000..
Net Loss Before Provision for Income Taxes
The net loss for the nine months ended June 30, 2014 was $803,399 as compared to a net loss of $1,081,217 before loss on goodwill impairment of $5,943,533 for the nine months ended June 30, 2013. The decrease in operating net loss is based on increased revenues at consistent gross margins for product sales and a decrease in operating expenses as mentioned above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash flows used by operating activities were $492,622 for the nine months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $1,502,718 for the nine months ended June 30, 2014. Negative cash flow is a direct result of operating expenses exceeding revenues generated during the nine months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.
Cash Flows used by Investing Activities was $78,571 for purchases of equipment during the nine months ended June 30, 2014. For the nine months ended June 30, 2014, cash flows from investing activities was $4,891,602 for the purchase of land, building and equipment.
Cash Flows provided by financing activities were $606,423 for the nine months ended June 30, 2014 and $6,482,207 for the nine months ended June 30, 2014. The cash provided by financing activities was related to proceeds received from notes payable.
As of June 30, 2014, Verity did not have and continues to not have sufficient cash on hand to pay present obligations as they become due. In addition, there is no assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital on acceptable terms, if at all, to meet our current obligations over the next 12 months. Because of the foregoing, Verity’s auditors expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern in the September 30, 2013 Audit report.
6 |
If we obtain additional funds by selling any of our equity securities or by issuing common stock to pay current or future obligations, the percentage ownership of our stockholders will be reduced, stockholders may experience additional dilution, or the equity securities may have rights preferences or privileges senior to the common stock. If adequate funds are not available to us on satisfactory terms, we may be required to cease operating or otherwise modify our business strategy. Our estimated working capital requirement for the next 12 months, based on current assumptions and conditions, is approximately $1,500,000.
Management has determined that general expenditures must be reduced unless revenue growth is obtained. Additional capital will be required in the form of equity or debt securities to maintain operations. In addition, if the Company cannot raise additional short term capital, the Company will be forced to continue to further accrue liabilities due to our limited cash reserves. There are no assurances that management will be able to raise capital on terms acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, we may be required to reduce the scope of our planned development, which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results. If the Company obtains additional funds by selling any of our equity securities of by issuing common stock to pay current or future obligations, the percentage ownership of our shareholders will be reduced, shareholders may experience additional dilution, or the equity securities may have rights preferences or privileges senior to the common stock. If adequate funds are not available to us when needed on satisfactory term, the Company may be required to cease operating or otherwise drastically modify the business strategy.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
There are no off-balance sheet arrangements
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Verity Corp. does not hold any derivative instruments and do not engage in any hedging activities.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure and Control Procedures
Pursuant to Rule 13a- 15(b) under the Exchange Act, Verity carried out an evaluation, with the participation of Verity’s management, including Verity’s Principal Executive Officer (“PEO”) and Principal Financial Officer (“PFO”), of the effectiveness of Verity’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, Verity’s PEO and PFO concluded that Verity’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Verity in the reports that Verity files or submits 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 Verity’s management, including Verity’s PEO and PFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Management’s Assessment of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). A system of internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, Verity’s management has evaluated the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2013, based on the criteria established in a report entitled “Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission” and the interpretive guidance issued by the Commission in Release No. 34-55929. Based on this evaluation, Verity’s management has evaluated and concluded that Verity’s internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of September 30, 2013, and identified the following material weaknesses:
● | The small size of our Company limits our ability to achieve the desired level of separation of internal controls and financial reporting. We do not have a separate PEO and PFO. | |
● | We have not achieved the desired level of documentation of our internal controls and procedures. When Verity obtains sufficient funding, this documentation will be strengthened through utilizing a third party consulting firm to assist management with its internal control documentation and further help to limit the possibility of any lapse in controls occurring. |
7 |
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of Verity’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Management intends to mitigate the risk of the material weaknesses going forward provided Verity has sufficient funding by utilizing external financial consulting services, in a more effective manner, prior to the review by our principal independent accounting firm to ensure that all information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately and within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rule and forms.
(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Verity Corp. is not currently involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization of body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our companies or our subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.
Verity Corp takes the position that there are no changes that constitute material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2013., filed with the SEC on January 14, 2014.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
During the nine months ended June 30, 2014, the Company did not have any unregistered sales of equity securities.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
There have been no default in the payment of principal, interest, sinking or purchase fund installment, or any other material default, with respect to any indebtedness of the Company.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.
Not applicable.
There is no other information required to be disclosed which was not previously disclosed.
