US NUCLEAR CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2024
Note 1 – Organization
Organization and Line of Business
US Nuclear Corp., formerly known as APEX 3, Inc., (the “Company” or “US Nuclear”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on February 14, 2012.
On May 31, 2016, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Electronic Control Concepts (“ECC”) whereby the Company purchased certain tangible and intangible assets of ECC.
The Company is engaged in developing, manufacturing and selling radiation detection and measuring equipment. The Company markets and sells its products to consumers throughout the world.
Note 2 – Basis Presentation
Interim financial statements
The unaudited interim financial statements included herein, presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and stated in US dollars, have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosure is adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
These statements reflect all adjustment, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. It is suggested that these interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2023, and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed on May 10, 2024. The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim report. Results of operations for the interim period are not indicative of annual results.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements
have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company recorded a net loss of $
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate profitable operations in the future and/or obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has plans to seek additional capital through some private placement offerings of debt and equity securities. These plans, if successful, will mitigate the factors which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries which include Optron, Overhoff Technology Corporation (“Overhoff”), and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Electronic Control Concepts (“ECC”), have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. It is possible that accounting estimates and assumptions may be material to the Company due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment involved.
5
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less. There were no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023.
Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash with high quality financial institutions and at times may exceed the FDIC insurance limit. The Company has not and does not anticipate incurring any losses related to this credit risk.
Accounts Receivable
The Company maintains reserves for potential credit
losses for accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyses historical bad debts, customer
concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy
of these reserves. Reserves are recorded based on the Company’s historical collection history. Allowance for doubtful accounts as
of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, were $
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (determined
primarily by the average cost method) or net realizable value. Management compares the cost of inventories with the net realizable value
and allowance is made for writing down their inventories to net realizable value, if lower. As of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023,
there was $
Property and Equipment
Property and Equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures
for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred; additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized. When equipment is
retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain
or loss is included in operations.
| Furniture and fixtures | ||
| Leasehold improvement | ||
| Equipment | ||
| Computers and software |
Long-Lived Assets
The Company applies the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. ASC 360 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair values are reduced for the cost of disposal. Based on its review at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company believes there was no impairment of its long-lived assets.
6
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the underlying net assets of businesses acquired. The entire goodwill balance in the accompanying financial statements resulted from the Company’s acquisition of Overhoff Technology Corporation in 2006. The Company complies with ASC 350, Goodwill and Other Indefinite Lived Intangible Assets, requiring that a test for impairment be performed at least annually. As of December 31, 2023, the Company performed the required impairment analysis which resulted in no impairment adjustments. Significant estimates used in the goodwill impairment analysis may change in the upcoming year if revenues do not rebound and the cost of materials continues to increase.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates all of its agreements to determine if such instruments have derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a weighted-average Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date. As of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, there are no derivative liabilities associated with our convertible notes payable.
Investments
The Company accounts for investments in equity
securities without a readily determinable fair value at cost, minus impairment. If the Company identifies observable price changes in
orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer, the Company measures the equity security at fair value
as of the date that the observable transaction occurred (“the measurement alternative”) in accordance with ASC 321. The Company
accounts for investments for which it owns
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, customer deposits, and line of credit, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. In addition, the Company has a note payable to a shareholder that the carrying amount also approximates fair value.
Revenue Recognition
Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”), became effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. The Company’s revenue recognition disclosure reflects its updated accounting policies that are affected by this new standard. The Company applied the “modified retrospective” transition method for open contracts for the implementation of Topic 606. As sales are and have been primarily from the sale of products to customers, and the Company has no significant post-delivery obligations, this new standard did not result in a material recognition of revenue on the Company’s accompanying consolidated financial statements for the cumulative impact of applying this new standard. The Company made no adjustments to its previously reported total revenues, as those periods continue to be presented in accordance with its historical accounting practices under Topic 605, Revenue Recognition.
Revenues from product sales are recognized under Topic 606 in a manner that reasonably reflects the delivery of its products to customers in return for expected consideration and includes the following elements:
| ● | executed contracts with the Company’s customers that it believes are legally enforceable; |
| ● | identification of performance obligations in the respective contract; |
| ● | determination of the transaction price for each performance obligation in the respective contract; |
| ● | allocation the transaction price to each performance obligation; and |
| ● | recognition of revenue only when the Company satisfies each performance obligation. |
7
These five elements, as applied to each of the Company’s revenue category, is summarized below:
| ● | Product sales - revenue is recognized when the Company performs its obligations under the contracts it has with its customers to deliver products at an agreed upon price and it is generally when the control of the product has been transferred to the customer. |
Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as customer deposits.
Sales returns and allowances was $
See Notes 12 and 13 for disclosures of revenue disaggregated by geographical area and product line.
Customer Deposits
Customer deposits represent cash paid to the Company by customers before the product has been completed and shipped.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires a company to use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of, the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Under ASC 740, a tax position is recognized as
a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination
being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation.” FASB ASC Topic 718 requires companies to measure compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation at fair value at the grant date and recognize the expense over the employee’s requisite service period. The Company recognizes in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees and non-employees.
Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share is calculated in accordance
with ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS assumes that all dilutive convertible shares and stock warrants were converted or exercised. Dilution
is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning
of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average
market price during the period. As of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, there were
Segment Reporting
FASB ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting,
requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a
company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. The Company
determined it has
8
Related Parties
The Company accounts for related party transactions in accordance with ASC 850, Related Party Disclosures. A party is considered to be related to the Company if the party directly or indirectly or through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and 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. A party which can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or if it has 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 is also a related party.
Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts were reclassified to conform to the manner of presentation in the current period. These reclassifications had no effect on the net loss or stockholders’ equity.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 was issued to improve financial reporting by requiring earlier recognition of credit losses on financing receivables and other financial assets in scope. The new standard represents significant changes to accounting for credit losses. Full lifetime expected credit losses will be recognized upon initial recognition of an asset in scope. The current incurred loss impairment model that recognizes losses when a probable threshold is met will be replaced with the expected credit loss impairment method without recognition threshold. The expected credit losses estimate will be based upon historical information, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This ASU as amended by ASU 2019-10, is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company has determined that this ASU does not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes which amends ASC 740 Income Taxes (ASC 740). This update is intended to simplify accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 and amending existing guidance to improve consistent application of ASC 740. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The guidance in this update has various elements, some of which are applied on a prospective basis and others on a retrospective basis with earlier application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In August
2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance (ASC 2020-06), which simplifies the accounting for
certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s
own equity. Among other changes, the guidance removes the liability and equity separation models for convertible instruments. Instead,
entities will account for convertible debt instruments wholly as debt unless convertible instruments contain features that require bifurcation
as a derivative or that result in substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital. The guidance also requires the application of
the if-converted method to calculate the impact of convertible instruments on diluted earnings per share. The guidance is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and
can be adopted on either a retrospective or modified retrospective basis. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2024, using the modified
retrospective approach whereby amounts previously reported have not been revised. Upon adoption we recognized a decrease to additional
paid-in capital of $

Note 9 – Leases
The Company determines whether a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the contract and whether that lease meets the classification criteria of a finance or operating lease. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of the Company’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company must discount lease payments based on an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate which is based on the interest rate of similar debt outstanding.
The Company leases its current facilities from
Gold Team Inc., a company owned by the Company’s CEO, which owns both the Canoga Park, CA and Milford, Ohio locations. The leases

Note 12 – Segment Reporting
ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. The Company has two reportable segments: Optron and Overhoff. Optron is located in Canoga Park, California and Overhoff is located in Milford, Ohio. The assets and operations of the Company’s recent acquisition of the assets of Electronic Control Concepts are included with Overhoff in the table below. The assets and operations of the Company’s subsidiary, Cali From Above, are through March 3, 2023, which is the date the Company divested its interest in Cali and are included with Optron in the table below.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand US Nuclear Corp, our operations and our present business environment. MD&A is provided as a supplement to—and should be read in conjunction with—our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The audited financial statements for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on Form 10-K on May 10, 2024, should be read in conjunction with the discussion below. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments necessary to present fairly the results of operations for such periods have been included in these unaudited financial statements.
We were incorporated in Delaware on February 14, 2012, and on March 2, 2012, we filed a registration statement on Form 10 to register with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as a public company. We were originally organized as a vehicle to investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held corporation.
Since our acquisition of Overhoff Technology in 2006, we have had discussions with other companies in our industry for an acquisition. While we targeted Overhoff due to its unique position in the tritium market, we had not commenced an acquisition since our Overhoff Technology acquisition; we believe in part the reason was due to lack of additional capital, our status as a privately held entity at the time, and focus on developing our own products. We will seek out companies whom our management believes will provide value to our customers and will complement our business. We will focus on diversifying our product line into a larger range so that our customers and vendors may have a more expansive experience in type, choice, options, price and selection. We also believe that with a more diverse product line we will become more competitive as our industry is intensely competitive.
Generally, our product concentration places a heavy reliance on our Overhoff Technology division. During the six months ending June 30, 2024, we derived 77% of our total revenues from sales made by Overhoff to three customers. We have experienced a 171% increase in business from our Technical Associates division compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023, which is largely due to expansion of our international customer base.
Our international revenues were 37.4% of our total revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2024. We expect this to increase over time as we continue to field new order inquiries and engage new customers overseas. We believe that South Korea and China will likely be a larger contributor to revenue within the next few years. While we maintain steady growth domestically, the international side of our business may be a larger component as nuclear technology and rapid development for clean energy grows abroad. Additionally, the Company relies on continued growth and orders from CANDU reactors (Canada Deuterium Uranium), and rapid development of the next generation of nuclear reactors called Molten Salt Reactors, (MSR) and Liquid-Fluoride Thorium Reactors (LFTR), all of which purchase tritium detection and monitor products. There can be no assurances as to our growth projections and our risk profile as we depend upon increased foreign customers for business.
For the next twelve months, we anticipate we will need approximately $5,000,000 in additional capital to fund our business plans. If we do not raise the required capital, we may not meet our expenses and there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so and if we do, we may find the cost of such financing to be burdensome on the Company. Additionally, we may not be able to execute on our business plans due to unforeseen market forces such as lower natural gas prices, difficulty attracting qualified executive staff, general downturn in our sector or by competition as we operate in an extremely competitive market for all of our product offerings.
Robert I. Goldstein, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors also maintains a position as President of Gold Team Inc., a Delaware company that invests in industrial real estate properties for investment purposes. He holds an 8% interest in Gold Team Inc. and spends approximately 5 hours per week on affairs related to Gold Team Inc. The Company leases its current facilities from Gold Team Inc., which owns both the Canoga Park, CA and Milford, Ohio properties at an expense of $7,000 and $9,000, respectively, for each facility per month.
18
On May 31, 2016, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Electronic Control Concepts (“ECC”) whereby the Company purchased certain tangible and intangible assets of ECC. ECC is a small manufacturer of test and maintenance meters for x-ray machines both medical and industrial. We acquired ECC to give a boost to our current x-ray related product and hospital/medical product sales.
On March 3, 2023, the Company divested itself of its wholly owned subsidiary, Cali From Above, through a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement with the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Robert Goldstein. Consideration received by the Company was 65,000,000 shares of Averox, Inc. (OTC:AVRI), resulting in the Company owning 26% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of AVRI. The Company and Cali From Above also signed a Cooperation Agreement whereby the Company holds exclusive sourcing and manufacturing rights for Cali From Above products, thus making Cali From Above a new customer of the Company.

Sales for the three months ended June 30, 2024, were $502,568 compared to $346,801 for the same period in 2023. The increase of $155,767 or 44.9% is a result of an increase in sales from our Optron subsidiary of $336,906 offset by a decrease in sales from our Overhoff subsidiary of $179,139. The overall increase in sales is principally due to the mix of products and services sold during the period combined with an increase in our international customer base at Optron. The sales breakdown for the three months ended June 30, 2024, is as follows:
North America 43.50%
Asia (Including Japan) 18.9%
Other 37.6%
Our gross margins for the three months ended June 30, 2024, were 51.4% as compared to 10% for the same period in 2023. Gross margins increased for the three months ended June 30, 2024, due to fluctuations in the cost of materials used in manufacturing our products, in addition to uncommon costs incurred during the period ending June 30, 2023 for products not meeting specifications or standards upon completion of the manufacturing process.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024, were $621,641 compared to $600,419 for the same period in 2023. The increase of $21,222 or 3.5% was principally due to increases in professional fees and payroll and employee benefits, and stock-based compensation. During the three months ended June 30, 2024, stock-based compensation was $153,801 compared to $52,040 during the same period in 2023. Stock based compensation is issued as an incentive to consultants to increase revenues through the acquisition of new customers.
Other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024, was $92,226, a decrease of $213,526 from other expense of $305,752 for the same period in 2023. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the amortization of debt discounts associated with convertible debentures of $285,052 offset by an increase in interest expense.

Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2024, were $1,130,318 compared to $994,507 for the same period in 2023. The increase of $135,811 or 13.7% is a result of an increase in sales from our Optron subsidiary of $163,292 offset by a decrease in sales from our Overhoff subsidiary of $27,481. The overall increase in sales is principally due to the mix of products and services sold during the period combined with an increase in our international customer base at Optron.

Our gross margins for the six months ended June 30, 2024, were 54.2% as compared to 47.28% for the same period in 2023. Gross margins increased for the six months ended June 30, 2024, due to fluctuations in the cost of materials used in manufacturing our products, in addition to uncommon costs incurred during the period ending June 30, 2023 for products not meeting specifications or standards upon completion of the manufacturing process.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024, were $1,119,839 compared to $1,336,244 for the same period in 2023. The decrease of $216,405 or 16.2% was principally due to increases in professional fees and payroll and employee benefits, offset by decreases in stock-based compensation. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, stock-based compensation was $204,311 compared to $276,390 during the same period in 2023. Stock based compensation is issued as an incentive to consultants to increase revenues through the acquisition of new customers.
Other expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024, was $109,775, a decrease of $560,275 from other expense of $670,050 for the same period in 2023. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the amortization of debt discounts associated with convertible debentures of $616,611 offset by an increase in interest expense.
Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024, was $617,404 compared to $1,536,052 for the same period in 2023. The change was principally attributed to the factors described above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our operations have historically been financed by our majority shareholder and more recently from proceeds from the sale of our common stock. As funds were needed for working capital purposes, our majority shareholder would loan us the needed funds. We anticipate funding the growth of our business through the sales of additional shares of our common stock and loans from our majority stockholder if necessary.
20
At June 30, 2024, total assets decreased to $2,844,418 from $2,856,876 at December 31, 2023. The decrease primarily reflects increases in inventory offset by decreases in accounts receivable and cash.
At June 30, 2024, total liabilities increased to $5,157,088 from $4,839,495 at December 31, 2023. The increase is the net of increases in accounts payable, accrued expenses, customer deposits, and shareholder loans, offset by decreases in deferred revenue, notes payable, and amortization of debt discounts.
Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $189,031 compared to $190,126 for the same period in 2023. The change in cash from operations was principally due to changes in working capital accounts.
Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024, was $18,081 compared to $19,539 for the same period in 2023. The decrease in cash used in investing activities was primarily due to the decrease of a note receivable by $8,919 and cash of $2,539 surrendered in the deconsolidation of Cali From Above during the prior period offset by an increase in employee advances of $10,000.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024, was $192,121 compared to $179,348 for the same period in 2023. The change in cash from financing activities was primarily due to repayments of notes payable offset by increases in proceeds from lines of credit and shareholder loans.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”). US GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.
We believe the following is among the most critical accounting policies that impact our consolidated financial statements. We suggest that our significant accounting policies, as described in our financial statements in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, be read in conjunction with this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
21
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires a company to use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of, the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Under ASC 740, a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The adoption had no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future 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.
None
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, we are responsible for conducting an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our internal controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this report. Disclosure controls and procedures means that the material information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms relating to our company, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the evaluation date that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2024.
Changes in internal controls
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, performed an evaluation to determine whether any change in our internal controls over financial reporting occurred during the six-month period ended June 30, 2024. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that no change occurred in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the six months ended June 30, 2024, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
