US Nuclear Corp. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016 and 2015

(Unaudited)

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.

 

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 are 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, 2015 and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K. 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.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. This pronouncement is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and is to be applied using one of two retrospective application methods, with early application not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements.

 

-8-

In January 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-01 (Subtopic 225-20) - Income Statement - Extraordinary and Unusual Items. ASU 2015-01 eliminates the concept of an extraordinary item from GAAP. As a result, an entity will no longer be required to segregate extraordinary items from the results of ordinary operations, to separately present an extraordinary item on its income statement, net of tax, after income from continuing operations or to disclose income taxes and earnings-per-share data applicable to an extraordinary item. However, ASU 2015-01 will still retain the presentation and disclosure guidance for items that are unusual in nature and occur infrequently. ASU 2015-01 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of ASU 2015-01 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Early adoption is permitted.

 

In February, 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. ASU 2015-02 provides guidance on the consolidation evaluation for reporting organizations that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability corporations, and securitization structures (collateralized debt obligations, collateralized loan obligations, and mortgage-backed security transactions). ASU 2015-02 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of ASU 2015-02 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Early adoption is permitted.

 

In September, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805). Topic 805 requires that an acquirer retrospectively adjust provisional amounts recognized in a business combination, during the measurement period. To simplify the accounting for adjustments made to provisional amounts, the amendments in the Update require that the acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amount is determined. The acquirer is required to also record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date.  In addition an entity is required to present separately on the face of the income statement or disclose in the notes to the financial statements the portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. ASU 2015-16 is effective for fiscal years beginning December 15, 2015. The adoption of ASU 2015-016 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. The new guidance requires that all deferred tax assets and liabilities, along with any related valuation allowance, be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of this ASU will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The guidance in ASU No. 2016-02 supersedes the lease recognition requirements in ASC Topic 840, Leases (FAS 13). ASU 2016-02 requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities arising from a lease for both financing and operating leases, along with additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

-9-

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share Based Payment Accounting, to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The guidance will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this newly issued guidance to its consolidated financial statements.

 

Note 3 – Inventories

Note 5 – Note Payable Shareholder

 

Robert Goldstein, the CEO and majority shareholder, has loaned funds to the Company from time to time to cover general operating expenses. These loans are evidenced by unsecured, non-interest bearing notes due on December 31, 2018. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company repaid its majority shareholder $13,299 and borrowed an additional $57,600 under this note payable agreement.

As of September 30, 2016 the Company had four lines of credit with a maximum borrowing amount of amount of $400,000 and interest ranging from 3.25% to 9.25%. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the amounts outstanding under these four lines of credit were $349,809 and $306,487, respectively.

 

Note 7 – Shareholders’ Equity

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016 the Company issued 142,403 shares of common stock valued at $35,601. The value was determined based on the Company’s stock price on May 31, 2016. In addition, the Company issued 330,000 shares of common stock to an investor for cash proceeds of $99,000.

 

Note 8 –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 Optron in the table below.

Note 12 – Business Combination

 

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. ECC a small manufacturer of test and maintenance meters for x-ray machines both medical and industrial. The purchase price was paid through a combination of cash, note payable common stock and an earn-out. The acquisition of assets of ECC has been accounted for as a business combination. The Company acquired ECC to give a boost to its current x-ray related product and hospital/medical product sales.

 

A summary of the purchase price allocations at fair value is below.

 

Accounts receivable, net of accounts payable $ 405
Inventory   3,350
Property and equipment   21,110
Customer list   130,000
Technology   128,443
Purchase price $ 283,308

 

The customer list and technology are being amortized over 24 months.

 

The purchase price is comprised of:

 

Cash $ 60,000
Note payable   80,000
Common stock   35,601
Earn-out   107,707
  $ 283,308

 

The note payable bears interest at 5% per annum and is due in 20 quarterly installments beginning in July 2016. The Company issued 142,403 shares of common stock valued at $35,601. The value was determined based on the Company’s stock price on May 31, 2016. The earn-out provision provides for payments to the seller equal to 12% of sales from ECC operations for the next four years. The Company has estimated the net present value of this earn-out to be $107,707. See Note 13 – Fair Value Measurements for details regarding valuation of earn-out. Any future changes in the estimated earn-out will be recorded in current operations.

 

The sales from ECC included in the results of operations from the date of acquisition on May 31, 2016 to September 30, 2016 was $49,518.

Note – 13 Fair Value Measurements

 

 

We follow a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to measurements involving unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 


Level 1 inputs - observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

Level 2 inputs - other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

 

Level 3 inputs - unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

 

 

We categorize our fair value measurements within the hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The following table presents the amount and level in the fair value hierarchy of each of our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

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, 2015 filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on Form 10-K on April 14, 2016 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.

 

On April 18, 2012, Richard Chiang, then our sole director and shareholder, entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement whereby Mr. Goldstein of US Nuclear Corp purchased 10,000,000 shares of our common stock from Mr. Chiang, which constituted 100% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Mr. Chiang then resigned from all positions. Subsequently, on May 18, 2012, the Registrant appointed Mr. Chiang to serve as a member of the Board of Directors. He resigned from this position on June 30, 2013.

 

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.

 

Our current product concentration places a heavy reliance on our Overhoff Technology division; where we derived 19% of our total revenues in 2015 from one customer. We expect to encounter a continuation of this trend unless we are successful in diversifying our client base, executing our acquisition strategy and experience increases in business from our Technical Associates division.

 

Our international revenues were 54% of our total revenue in 2015. We expect this to increase over time as we continue to field new orders inquires and engage new customers overseas. We believe that 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.

Additionally, we are inexperienced as a public company and may find it difficult to meet all of the challenges and expenses of being a public company.  As we commencing as a public company, we plan to raise capital by offering shares of our common stock or convertible debt to investors.  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 with 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 $6,000 for each facility per month. 

 

On September 30, 2014, we entered into a Forgiveness of Debt and Conversion Agreement with our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, Robert I. Goldstein. We owed Mr. Goldstein, $868,828 in related party debt. Pursuant to this Agreement, Mr. Goldstein agreed to forgive $668,828 and we agreed to convert the balance of the debt, $200,000 into restricted shares of our Company at $0.20 cents per share. We then issued Mr. Goldstein 1,000,000 shares of our restricted common stock.

 

On October 16, 2014, our Chief Financial Officer, and Secretary, Darian B. Andersen resigned, effective, October 31, 2014. Mr. Andersen has been of service to the Company for more than 2 years. Our relationship with him was considered to be positive and his departure from our company was because of his desire to continuing pursuing his work as a legal attorney. On that same day, we retained the services of Rachel Boulds, as our Chief Financial Officer, and Secretary to fill the void left by Mr. Andersen. Ms. Boulds is an experienced accountant and former auditor for public companies having been employed at PCAOB member firms.

 

On November 4, 2014, we entered into a five-year Employment Agreement with our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, Robert I. Goldstein. The Agreement calls for a salary of $100,000 per year, payable at the end of the fiscal year, with his compensation beginning in fiscal 2015 and payable in January 2016. Mr. Goldstein later agreed to reduce his compensation to $50,000 beginning in 2015.

 

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 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.

Sales for the three months ended September 30, 2016 were $751,036 compared to $662,793 for the same period in 2015. The increase of $88,243 or 13.3% is a result of an increase in sales from our Optron subsidiaries of $121,107 and a decrease in sales from our Overhoff subsidiary of $32,864. The increase in sales from our Optron subsidiary was due to the sales generated from its acquisition of Electronic Control Concepts and the delivery of some large orders during the quarter. The decrease in sales from our Overhoff subsidiary was due to the timing of the completion of larger orders. We recognize revenue from the sale of our products when the orders are completed and we ship the product to our customer. The sales breakdown for the three months ended September 30, 2016 is as follows:


North America 73%

Asia (Including Japan) 15%

 

Our gross margins for the three months ended September 30, 2016 were 48.5% as compared to 50.2% for the same period in 2015. The decrease in gross margin is due to slightly higher materials and overhead costs incurred in the manufacturing process.

 

Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2016 increased by $47,786 or 26.8% over 2015 to $256,179 up from $208,393 for the same period in 2015. The increase is due to higher rent costs and professional fees.

 

Other expense for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was $5,559, a decrease of $942 from $6,551 for the same period in 2015. The decrease is not significant.

 

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was $102,243 compared to $117,902 for the same period in 2015. The decrease in net income was principally attributed to higher selling, general and administrative costs.

Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 were $1,649,061 compared to $2,213,171 for the same period in 2015. The decrease of $564,110 or 25.5% is a result of a decrease in sales from our Overhoff subsidiary of $630,890 offset by an increase in sales from our Optron subsidiaries of $66,780. The decrease in sales from our Overhoff subsidiary was due to the timing of the completion of larger orders. In 2015 our Overhoff subsidiary had some large orders that were completed and shipped during the second quarter of 2015. The increase in sales from our Optron subsidiary was due to the sales generated from its acquisition of Electronic Control Concepts. We recognize revenue from the sale of our products when the orders are completed and we ship the product to our customer. The sales breakdown for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 is as follows:


North America 70%

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our operations have historically been financed by our majority stockholder. As funds were needed for working capital purposes, our majority stockholder would loan us the needed funds. During the year ended December 31, 2015, our majority stockholder loaned the Company $243,293, $52,629 of which was repaid. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we repaid $13,299 of the amount due to our majority stockholder and borrowed an additional $57,600. The additional borrowing were used to acquire certain assets of Electronic Control Concepts. During the quarter ended September 30, 2016 we sold 330,000 shares of our common stock in a private placement to an investor for proceeds of $99,000. We anticipate funds the growth of our business through the sales of shares of our common stock and loans from our majority stockholder if necessary.

 

At September 30, 2016, total assets increased by 15.1% to $4,028,395 from $3,498,619 at December 31, 2015 principally related to the acquisition of certain assets of Electronic Control Concepts and an increase in accounts receivable and inventory.

 

At September 30, 2016, 2015, total liabilities increased by 42.3% to $1,078,186 from $757,479 at December 31, 2015 principally related to an increase in the line of credit and note payable to stockholder, and the acquisition contingency and note payable incurred to acquire certain assets of Electronic Control Concepts.

 

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.

 

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.

 

-20-

 

 

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.

 

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act. As a result, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements. For so long as we are an emerging growth company, we will not be required to:

 

·        have an auditor report on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;

 

·        comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (i.e., an auditor discussion and analysis); 

 

·        submit certain executive compensation matters to shareholder advisory votes, such as “say-on-pay” and “say-on-frequency;” and

 

·        disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO’s compensation to median employee compensation.

 

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Our financial statements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

 

We will remain an “emerging growth company” for up to five years, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which would occur if the market value of our ordinary shares that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.

 

As an emerging growth company, the company is exempt from Section 14A and B of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which require the shareholder approval of executive compensation and golden parachutes.

 

The Company is an Emerging Growth Company under the JOBS Act of 2012, but the Company has irrevocably opted out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards pursuant to Section 107(B) of the JOBS Act.

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.

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 September 30, 2016.

 

Changes in internal controls

 

Our management, with the participation 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 three-month period ended September 30, 2016.  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 nine months ended September 30, 2016 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal controls over financial reporting.
