Restatement of Prior Period Financials | Conventional Convertible Debt
In connection with the Company’s second quarter 2014 review procedures and internal control analysis, management conducted an analysis of the Company’s various financial instruments and agreements involving its convertible debt and related warrants, and in particular, the $530,000 in unsecured convertible notes issued in December 2013 (the “12% December 2013 Notes”), and the $170,000 convertible debt mortgage relating to the Company’s property in Pueblo (the “Pueblo Mortgage”) (collectively, the “Convertible Debt”). Management’s analysis was particularly focused on the accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments and debt under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”) and ASC Topic 470, “Debt” (“ASC 470”), respectively.
Management’s analyses included reviewing its previous analysis and accounting of the Convertible Debt noted above to see if any events may have occurred subsequent to the original issuance which would cause the Company’s original accounting and classification to change. Through the Company’s reevaluation process which included the Company obtaining a thorough understanding of the transactions, including gaining a thorough understanding of the terms of each instrument issued, and any potential derivative features. The Company reevaluated the debt instruments pursuant to ASC 815, to identify whether any equity-linked features in the Convertible Debt are freestanding or embedded. The Convertible Debt was issued availing the option for note holders to convert debt to common stock at fixed conversion price of $5.00 per share. The Company determined that conversion feature was embedded in the debt instrument and was therefore not a free standing features. The Convertible Debt were then analyzed in accordance with ASC 815 to determine if the embedded conversion feature should be bifurcated and accounted for at fair value and remeasured at fair value in income. The Company determined that the embedded conversion feature did not meet the definition of a derivative pursuant to ASC Topic 815 and therefore should not be bifurcated pursuant to ASC 815 and therefore should be evaluated and accounted for as conventional convertible debt. The Company then reviewed ASC 470-20, and determined that the Convertible Debt met the criteria of conventional convertible notes and that none of the Convertible Debt instruments had a beneficial conversion feature as the conversion price was greater than the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance(s). As a result, pursuant to ASC 470-20, the Company concluded that the Convertible Debt should have been recorded as a conventional convertible debt instrument in its entirety.
The Company had originally accounted for embedded conversion feature associated with the Convertible Debt as beneficial conversion features in the previously issued consolidated financial statements. In addition, the Company originally valued the conversion features using the Black-Scholes pricing model as the Company originally identified that the conversion price of the debt was greater than then value of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance. Based on our reevaluation analyses performed during the second quarter 2014, we concluded that our original accounting for the embedded conversion feature as a debt discount on the Convertible Debt was incorrect, as the embedded conversion features did not meet the definition of a derivative and therefore should not have been bifurcated and the embedded conversion feature did not have a beneficial conversion, therefore the Company should not have accounted for the embedded conversion feature as a debt discount.
On August 15, 2014, as a result of this analysis, management, along with Company’s board of directors, concluded that it was necessary to restate its previously filed consolidated financial statements for the period from June 5, 2013 (Inception) to December 31, 2013 filed on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q for March 31, 2014.
Derivative Warrant Liability
In connection with the Company’s second quarter 2014 review procedures, management conducted an analysis of the Company’s warrants, specifically, the 1,000,000 Series C warrants issued in conjunction with the Company’s financing arrangement with Full Circle. Management’s analysis was particularly focused on the accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”).
Management’s analyses included reviewing its previous analysis and accounting for the Series C warrants to see if any events may have occurred subsequent to the original issuance which would cause the Company’s original accounting and classification to change. Through the Company’s reevaluation process which included the Company obtaining a thorough understanding of the transactions, including gaining a thorough understanding of the terms of the warrants issued, and any potential derivative features. The Company reevaluated the warrants instruments pursuant to ASC 815, to assess whether the share settlement feature of the Series C warrants included in the agreement with Full Circle was within the Company’s control. Management’s analysis of the agreement noted that without a conversion price floor or maximum number of shares, the Company cannot conclude that a sufficient number of shares are available. In order to share settle all outstanding contracts for common stock, the Company would be required to increase the authorized number of shares. Per ASC 815-40-25-19, if the Company is required to increase the number of authorized shares, share settlement is not within the control of the Company. Per ASC 815-40-25-22, if share settlement is not within the control of the Company, asset or liability classification is required. ASC 815-10-35-1 requires all derivatives be measured at fair value at each reporting period, and ASC 815-10-35-2 requires the gain or loss to be recognized in the Company's consolidated statement of operations.
On August 15, 2014, as a result of this analysis, management, along with Company’s board of directors, concluded that it was necessary to restate its previously filed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2014 filed on Form 10-Q and for the period from June 5, 2013 (Inception) to December 31, 2013 filed on Form 10-K (collectively, the “Restated Periods”).
