TOMI ENVIRONMENTAL SOLUTIONS, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
TOMI Environmental Solutions, Inc., a Florida corporation (“TOMI”, the “Company”, “we”, “our” and “us”) is a global provider of disinfection and decontamination essentials through our premier Binary Ionization Technology® (BIT™) platform, under which we manufacture, license, service and sell our SteraMist® brand of products, including SteraMist® BIT™, a hydrogen peroxide-based mist and fog. Our solution and process are environmentally friendly as the only biproduct from our decontamination process is oxygen and humidity. Our solution is organically listed in the United States and Canada it is sustainably a green product with no or very little carbon footprint. Our business is organized into five divisions: Healthcare, Life Sciences, TOMI Service Network, Food Safety and Commercial.
Invented under a defense grant in association with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) of the U.S. Department of Defense, BIT™ is registered with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and uses a low percentage hydrogen peroxide as its only active ingredient to produce a fog composed mostly of a hydroxyl radical (.OH ion), known as ionized Hydrogen Peroxide (iHP™). Represented by the SteraMist® brand of products, iHP™ produces a germ-killing aerosol that works like a visual non-caustic gas.
Our products are designed to service a broad spectrum of commercial structures, including, but not limited to, hospitals and medical facilities, bio-safety labs, pharmaceutical facilities, meat and produce processing facilities, universities and research facilities, vivarium labs, other service industries including cruise ships, office buildings, hotel and motel rooms, schools, restaurants, military barracks, police and fire departments, prisons, and athletic facilities. Our products are also used in single-family homes and multi-unit residences. Additionally, our products have been listed on the EPA’s List N as products that help combat COVID-19 and are actively being used for this purpose.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein, presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles utilized in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and stated in U.S. dollars, have been prepared by us, without an audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
These financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 and notes thereto which are included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K previously filed with the SEC on March 29, 2022. We follow the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports. The results of operations for the interim periods covered by this Form 10-Q may not necessarily be indicative of results of operations for the full fiscal year or any other interim period.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TOMI and its wholly owned subsidiary, TOMI Environmental Solutions, Inc., a Nevada corporation. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Table of Contents |
Reclassification of Accounts
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior-year comparative financial statements to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no material effect on previously reported results of operations or financial position.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to accounts receivable, inventory, fair values of financial instruments, intangible assets, useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, fair values of stock-based awards, income taxes, and contingent liabilities, among others. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of our assets and liabilities.
Fair Value Measurements
The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or the most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal market that are (i) independent, (ii) knowledgeable, (iii) able to transact, and (iv) willing to transact. The guidance describes a fair value hierarchy based on the levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, which are the following:
| Level 1: | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
|
| Level 2: | Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
|
| Level 3: | Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the value of the assets or liabilities. |
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximated fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, held at financial institutions and other liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. At times, these deposits may be in excess of insured limits. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no cash equivalents.

Table of Contents |
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories consist primarily of finished goods and raw materials.
We expense costs to maintain certification to cost of goods sold as incurred.
We review inventory on an ongoing basis, considering factors such as deterioration and obsolescence. We record an allowance for estimated losses when the facts and circumstances indicate that particular inventories may not be usable. Our reserve for obsolete inventory was $
Property and Equipment
We account for property and equipment at cost less accumulated depreciation. We compute depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three to five years. Depreciation for equipment, furniture and fixtures and vehicles commences once placed in service for its intended use. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the lives of the respective leases or service lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter.
Leases
We recognize a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability for all leases with terms of more than 12 months, in accordance with ASC 842. We utilize the short-term lease recognition exemption for all asset classes as part of our on-going accounting under ASC 842. This means, for those leases that qualify, we will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities. Recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses depends on classification as a finance or operating lease.
As a lessee, we utilize the reasonably certain threshold criteria in determining which options we will exercise. Furthermore, our lease payments are based on index rates with minimum annual increases. These represent fixed payments and are captured in the future minimum lease payments calculation. In determining the discount rate to use in calculating the present value of lease payments, we used our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at adoption date in determining the present value of lease payments.
We have also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all asset classes, meaning all consideration that is fixed, or in-substance fixed, will be captured as part of our lease components for balance sheet purposes. Furthermore, all variable payments included in lease agreements will be disclosed as variable lease expense when incurred.

Income Taxes
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The measurement of deferred income tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits that are, on a more likely than not basis, not expected to be realized in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) guidance for income taxes. Net deferred tax benefits have been fully reserved at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that such tax rate changes are enacted.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income or (loss) per share is computed by dividing our net income or (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period presented. Diluted income or (loss) per share is based on the treasury stock method and includes the effect from potential issuance of shares of common stock, such as shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of options and warrants and conversions of preferred stock or debentures.
Potentially dilutive securities as of March 31, 2022 consisted of
Potentially dilutive securities as of March 31, 2021 consisted of
Diluted net income or (loss) per share is computed similarly to basic net income or (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potential shares of common stock had been issued and if such additional shares were dilutive.

Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). We recognize revenue when we transfer promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for contracts with customers we perform the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy the performance obligation(s). At contract inception, we assess the goods or services promised within each contract, assess whether each promised good or service is distinct and identify those that are performance obligations.
We must use judgment to determine: a) the number of performance obligations based on the determination under step (ii) above and whether those performance obligations are distinct from other performance obligations in the contract; b) the transaction price under step (iii) above; and c) the stand-alone selling price for each performance obligation identified in the contract for the allocation of transaction price in step (iv) above.

Title and risk of loss generally pass to our customers upon shipment. Our Customers include end users as well as dealers and distributors who market and sell our products. Our revenue is not contingent upon resale by the dealer or distributor, and we have no further obligations related to bringing about resale. Shipping and handling costs charged to customers are included in Product Revenues. The associated expenses are treated as fulfillment costs and are included in Cost of Revenues. Revenues are reported net of sales taxes collected from Customers.

Product revenue includes sales from our standard and customized equipment, solution and accessories sold with our equipment. Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products.
Service and training revenue include sales from our high-level decontamination and service engagements, validation of our equipment and technology and customer training. Service revenue is recognized as the agreed upon services are rendered to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those services.
Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer
We apply a practical expedient to expense costs as incurred for costs to obtain a contract with a customer when the amortization period would have been one year or less. We generally expense sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are recorded within selling expenses.
Contract Balances
As of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021 we did not have any unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.
Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations
Our contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. We enter into contracts that can include various combinations of products and services, which are primarily distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations.

Table of Contents |
Significant Judgments
Our contracts with customers for products and services often dictate the terms and conditions of when the control of the promised products or services is transferred to the customer and the amount of consideration to be received in exchange for the products and services.
Equity Compensation Expense
We account for equity compensation expense in accordance with FASB ASC 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation.” Under the provisions of FASB ASC 718, equity compensation expense is estimated at the grant date based on the award’s fair value.
The valuation methodology used to determine the fair value of options and warrants issued as compensation during the period is the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes model requires the use of a number of assumptions including volatility of the stock price, the average risk-free interest rate, and the weighted average expected life of the options. Risk–free interest rates are calculated based on continuously compounded risk–free rates for the appropriate term. The dividend yield is assumed to be zero as the Company has never paid or declared any cash dividends on its Common Stock and does not intend to pay dividends on its Common Stock in the foreseeable future. The expected forfeiture rate is estimated based on management’s best assessment.
On July 7, 2017, our shareholders approved the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2016 Plan. The 2016 Plan authorizes the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance units/shares. Up to
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Long-Lived Assets Including Acquired Intangible Assets
We assess long-lived assets for potential impairments at the end of each year, or during the year if an event or other circumstance indicates that we may not be able to recover the carrying amount of the asset. In evaluating long-lived assets for impairment, we measure recoverability of these assets by comparing the carrying amounts to the future undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If our long-lived assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized equals the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair market value. We base the calculations of the estimated fair value of our long-lived assets on the income approach. For the income approach, we use an internally developed discounted cash flow model that includes, among others, the following assumptions: projections of revenues and expenses and related cash flows based on assumed long-term growth rates and demand trends; expected future investments to grow new units; and estimated discount rates. We base these assumptions on our historical data and experience, industry projections, micro and macro general economic condition projections, and our expectations. We had no long-lived asset impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (Topic 805). This ASU requires an acquirer in a business combination to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities (deferred revenue) from acquired contracts using the revenue recognition guidance in Topic 606. At the acquisition date, the acquirer applies the revenue model as if it had originated the acquired contracts. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption of the ASU should be applied prospectively. Early adoption is also permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If early adopted, the amendments are applied retrospectively to all business combinations for which the acquisition date occurred during the fiscal year of adoption. This ASU is currently not expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832). This ASU requires business entities to disclose information about government assistance they receive if the transactions were accounted for by analogy to either a grant or a contribution accounting model. The disclosure requirements include the nature of the transaction and the related accounting policy used, the line items on the balance sheets and statements of operations that are affected and the amounts applicable to each financial statement line item and the significant terms and conditions of the transactions. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. We adopted ASU 2021-10 starting in 2022, which did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic has temporarily increased the global demand for disinfection products and services that help prevent the spread and transmission of COVID-19 virus. The Company’s products have been identified as an essential disinfectant and decontamination vendor by various agencies and countries, which have materially affected its business and results of operations. The Company experienced a substantial increase in demand for our products and services in 2020 due to the pandemic. Throughout 2021, the Company experienced a reduction of demand due to various factors, including the closure of our major customers’ business operations due to the pandemic, which resulted in the suspension of many of its ongoing long-term projects. As the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic began to subside and economic activities gradually return to normal, customers reallocated their resources elsewhere and reduced their spending on disinfection products, which resulted in lower demand for our products. It is difficult to predict how COVID-19 pandemic will affect the Company’s financial performance in the remainder of 2022, as the global economy gradually reopens, customers adjust and change their operations, and the Company implements new marketing and sales strategies in response.

Quarterly Highlights
Business Update
The first four months of the 2022 fiscal year has been active with respect to our sales and business development. We remain focused on growing our top line revenue, expanding our customer base, adding key employees, and making further innovations to our product line.
The first quarter of 2022 delivered improved revenue and operating results as we achieved a 11% growth in our first quarter sales and 24% reduction in our operating expenses when compared to the same period last year . Our first quarter revenue also grew by 15% sequentially over what was reported in the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase in sales was primarily due to higher demand for our mobile equipment and iHP corporate services.
In the first quarter of 2022, we report positive cash flow from operations for first time since the second quarter of 2020, and this improvement in cash flow was attributable to customer deposits we received in the first quarter in addition to lower operating expenses.
During the first quarter of 2022 we received approximately $3.5 million in orders from key fortune 500 customers, of which we anticipate about $3.2 million of which to be recognized as revenue in our current calendar year. A key driver to our longer-term growth is strengthening demand for our Custom Engineered Systems (CES). We have secured several new orders for our iHP CES and more set to close eminently, revenue recognition will be upon delivery throughout 2022 and early 2023.
As the markets need for our automated disinfection CES continues to increase, TOMI has re-engaged with our manufacturing sales representatives and partners both domestically and internationally. The renewed interest can be attributed to TOMI corporate’s support and the launch of the SteraMist Support Portal that is available on desktop. We have also developed a mobile app which provides ease of use for sales support, branding, and assistance to our TOMI Service Network providers, sales representatives, and international distributors and end users.
Studies remain a focus as TOMI continues to pursue a wide array of industries. Studies focused on Botrytis cinerea and Mycotoxin, as well as furthering testing on chemical and biological warfare agents will further enhance TOMI’s ability to further penetrate the market.

Finally, our manufacturing capacity and capabilities were improved in the first quarter of 2022 with the addition of ARM Enertech Associates who can manufacture our CES in their Pennsylvania facility. Furthermore, our existing manufacturer Planet Innovation has expanded into California providing easier access to our internal technology team and a lower cost in domestic shipment charges. We anticipate these developments will reduce our overall costs and manufacturing lead times.
Product Development
As many industrial companies are reducing R&D and capital expenditures spending due to the economic impact of the pandemic, we are moving ahead with many new products in development. In 2022, we intend to increase capital expenditures (CapEx) and operating expenditures (OpEx), including development of new products, services and process technologies to sharpen our competitive advantage. In addition, we intend to expand our commercial service location to meet the expanding needs of our customers.
The second half of 2020 showed us that our customers prefer a disinfection device with lower cost and more versatility. To respond, we developed the Backpack (SteraPak) that includes our award winning 6-log and above kill technology and speed. In addition, our solution and process are environmentally friendly as the only biproduct from our decontamination process is oxygen and humidity. Our solution is OMRI certified and organically listed in the United States and Canada it is sustainably a green product with no or very little carbon footprint. We have competitively priced our SteraPak and expect to bring SteraMist to the largest cleaning market in the world, including members of ISSA (International Sanitary Supply Association) and its divisions IEHA (Integrated Environment and Health Assessment) and EMEA (Europe, Middle East & Africa). These organizations have historically been price conscious and were resistant early on to our SteraMist pricing of our professional decontamination equipment (SteraMist Surface and Environment Unit). As planned, we introduced our new innovative SteraPak domestically towards the end of the third quarter 2021.
During the third quarter 2021, we established and expanded our production capacity with the construction and purchase of the tooling and molds used in the production of our SteraPak. Our tooling and molds will allow us to streamline production and reduce manufacturing lead times and costs on the SteraPak.
Other new products that have been incorporated into our product line include the Select Plus, which is a hybrid product consisting of the Company’s current Surface Select and Environment systems. The unit will allow for enhanced flexibility by using a single applicator to decontaminate full-room to small-space volume while maintaining the size of the current Surface Select unit with more robust process controls. The iHP SteraMist Transport System has been designed for the transportation market, specifically ambulances. The iHP SteraMist Transport System is a simple timer based fogging system that can be installed semi-permanently or permanently and used for any transport and/or cargo vehicle. It will be an easy-to-use turn-key integration system. The implementation of this product and our patented non-corrosive iHP technology should replace the number one competitor in this marketplace, which uses an extremely harsh chemical.
Many of our customers have been waiting for the release and demonstration of these new products, especially the SteraPak. All SteraMist systems will remain important to the marketplace as they are designed for specific needs and budgets. The Select Surface Unit perform most of the functionality that the Plus offers and is priced at a lower cost, although Select Plus will provide additional options that are appealing to certain customers, such as laboratory and pharmaceutical companies. The SteraPak is a more cost-effective product and designed for residential and commercial real estate including large buildings and public space, any area that needs quick consistent disinfection. There are many new and existing clients that are interested in the SteraPak due to the cost and mobility.
In third quarter of 2021, we expanded our SteraMist® BIT™ solution product line with a 32-ounce bottle for the SteraPak, and the introduction of a ten (10) liter and five (5) gallon bottle. These three new additions bring the BIT Solution product line to a total of five (5) options provided to our customers, which should also benefit our razor razor-blade business model.
These new products and service introductions can significantly impact net sales, cost of sales and operating expenses. The timing of product introductions can also impact the Company’s net sales to its indirect distribution channels as these channels are filled with new inventory following a product launch, and channel inventory of an older product often declines as the launch of a newer product approaches. Net sales can also be affected when consumers and distributors anticipate a product introduction domestically and internationally.

Overview
TOMI Environmental Solutions, Inc. (“TOMI”, “we” and “our”) is a global bacteria decontamination and infectious disease control company, providing environmental solutions for indoor surface decontamination through the manufacturing, sales, service and licensing of our SteraMist® brand of products, including SteraMist® BIT™, a low percentage (7.8%) hydrogen peroxide-based fog or mist that uses Binary Ionization Technology (BIT™). Our solution and process are environmentally friendly as the only biproduct from our decontamination process is oxygen and humidity. Our solution is organically listed in the United States and Canada it is sustainably a green product with no or very little carbon footprint. Most of our competitors in the disinfection space leave significant byproducts and are corrosive. SteraMist is not corrosive, and it does not damage equipment or facilities.
Our SteraMist® is a patented technology that produces ionized Hydrogen Peroxide (iHP™) using cold plasma science created under a grant by the United States Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). Our EPA registered BIT™ Solution is composed of a low concentration of hydrogen peroxide converted to iHP™ after passing the trade secret blended solution including its sole active ingredient of 7.8% hydrogen peroxide through an atmospheric cold plasma arc. The newly formed iHP™ fog and mist consists of submicron’s to 3-micron radical particles that are carried throughout the treatment area in a fog or mist moving with the same velocity and characteristics of a gas. This allows the ionized hydrogen peroxide fog or mist to affect all surfaces and air space throughout the targeted treatment area, over, above and beyond the ability of a manual cleaning processes. iHP™ damages pathogenic organisms through the oxidation of proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids. SteraMist® no-touch disinfection and or decontamination treat areas mechanically, causing cellular disruptions and/or dysfunctions resulting in a 6-log (99.9999%) and greater kill or inactivation of all pathogens in the treatment area.
Under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (“FIFRA”), we are required to register with the EPA and certain state regulatory authorities as a seller of disinfectants. In June 2015, SteraMist® BIT™ was registered with the EPA as a hospital-healthcare disinfectant and general broad-spectrum surface disinfectant for use as a misting/fogging agent. SteraMist® BIT™ now holds EPA registrations (# 90150-2) for mold control, and air and surface remediation (# 90150-1). In February 2016, we expanded our label with the EPA to include Clostridium difficile Spores and MRSA, as well as the influenza (Avian) virus h1n1, which we believe has better positioned us to penetrate all industries including the biodefense and healthcare industry. In August 2017, our EPA label was further expanded to include efficacy against Salmonella and Norovirus. As of January 27, 2017, our technology is one of 53 of the EPA’s “Registered Antimicrobial Products Effective against Clostridium difficile Spores”, as published on the EPA’s K List. Further, in December 2017, SteraMist® was included in the EPA’s list G (Norovirus), L (Ebola) and M (Avian Flu). In March 2020, our EPA label was further amended to include Emerging Viral Pathogens claims, thus meeting the criteria against Enveloped viruses and Large Non-enveloped viruses and included on List N (Emerging Viral Pathogens including SARS-CoV-2). In 2021, the EPA granted SteraMist® BIT™ 0.35% hydrogen peroxide – EPA registration number 90150-3.
SteraMist® BIT™ brings to the world a mechanical and automated method of cleaning using a game-changing technology and EPA registered Hospital-HealthCare disinfectant providing an upgrade to existing disinfecting and cleaning protocols while limiting liability in a facility when it comes to resistant infectious pathogens. We maintain this registration in all fifty (50) states, Washington DC, Canada, and approximately thirty-five (35) other countries.
Markets
Our SteraMist® products are designed to address a wide spectrum of industries using iHP™. Our operations consist of five main divisions based on our current target industries: Hospital-HealthCare, Life Sciences, TOMI Service Network (TSN), Food Safety and Commercial.
We continue to offer our customers a wide range of innovative mobile products designed to be easily incorporated into their existing disinfection and decontamination procedures and protocols. Our newly released SteraPak, among other product lines will allow us to progress further into market share, specifically for our Life Science, Hospital-HealthCare, TSN, and Commercial divisions. Additionally, we offer integrated facility equipment installations known as Custom Engineered Systems (CES), routine & emergency iHP Corporate Service, essential training packages, validations and qualifications, and onsite performance maintenance requests.
27 |
Table of Contents |
Each of these are structured to address the unique disinfection and decontamination needs of our customers worldwide regardless of industry requiring or requesting SteraMist® disinfection decontamination.
A brief overview of the target industries is presented below:
Life Sciences
The SteraMist® Environment System, Custom Engineered Systems (CES), the SteraMist® Select Surface Unit (Plus), SteraBox, 90 Degree Applicator and our iHP™ Corporate Service Division, are designed to be tailored to provide a complete solution to address the regulatory inspections of disinfecting/decontaminating and Installation Qualification (IQ)-Operational Qualification (OQ)–Performance Qualification (PQ) validation processes within the life sciences industry.
Long term, ongoing projects and validations continue to be a focus and lead to proposals and interest for our CES permanent decontamination room. As these are longer lead-time sales that can take months to design, build and implement, we expect installations to have impact to our results in 2022.
Further, we believe that post COVID pandemic has brought some attention to the SteraMist product line, as our CES in Pfizer Missouri was recently showcased in a New York Times article as they featured their COVID vaccine processes. In addition, our iHP Corporate Service team treated one of four fill lines in a North Carolina pharmaceutical company that manufactures one of the COVID vaccines, with the remaining three lines set to be decontaminated in the future with SteraMist.
For 2022 and beyond TOMI expects growth in SteraMist Custom Engineered Systems (CES) bids and the manufacturing and implementation of these fully automated decontamination systems. The first CES system was completed in 2016 for Dana Farber Cancer Institute, as Dana Farber was designing a new vivariumand had the opportunity to integrate several new technologies to advance overall efficiency, quality, and design. One such technology was the use of our ionized Hydrogen Peroxide (iHP) decontamination. TOMI’s CES is an automated system that can be fully integrated into any company’s infrastructure, enabling decontamination, without burdening manual use and with the collaboration of current premier customers and partners, TOMI has further perfected the system. The CES eliminates issues such as human error, guarantees accuracy that is unmatched by competitors, and decreases a client’s labor cost and downtime, and in a short time the CES may make up a majority of TOMI’s revenue. Since its launch, SteraMist’s CES has become a leading solution to growing customer demands.
Hospital-Healthcare
The SteraMist® line of products, specifically the SteraMist® Surface Unit and SteraMist® Total Disinfection Cart, are our main solutions to aid our Hospital-HealthCare customers in providing high quality of safety to their patients and personnel by disinfecting operating rooms, pharmacies, ambulances, and emergency environments throughout a healthcare facility. TOMI’s latest product, the SteraPak, further assists healthcare communities with an easy-to-use, cordless disinfection solution, creating a more mobile solution. Our customers that have successfully adopted our technology in Hospital-Healthcare facilities, have recurring revenue and reorder rates of our BIT™ Solution. We plan to continue to expand our marketing, advertising and educational campaigns targeted at the Hospital-Healthcare marketing in an effort to grow our customer base and increase adoption of our SteraMist® line of products.
Our team of technicians and representatives train, maintain, and service capital equipment throughout the world for our Hospital-HealthCare customers. As our Training and Implementation department expands, we expect continued growth and purchases in our Hospital-HealthCare division. TOMI provides protocol development and implementation of SteraMist® as it is critical in the healthcare setting. During 2020 the use of our SteraMist® in such campuses increased due to our comprehensive training for their day and night shift maintenance and housekeeping departments. Annual comparison case studies from healthcare facilities are now available, which shows lower transmission infection rates in COVID, Clostridium difficile Spores and overall, HAI cases.
UCLA recently completed a successful collection of critical data for the Shield Study. The Shield Study is a multi-year study comparing SteraMist with manual clean. The Study was conducted by multiple well-established hospitals. Initial findings have been positive regarding ease of use, overall efficacy, and quick turnaround time of patient rooms. TOMI looks forward to announcing the full results as soon as they are available to make public.

TOMI anticipates this study will assist in the expansion of current HealthCare customers to follow the model of Gila River Health Care. Gila River is one of TOMI’s largest Healthcare customers owning a total of fourteen (14) Surface Units and Two (2) SteraPaks. The Gila River Indian Community (GRIC) is an Indian reservation in Arizona that is made up of seven (7) districts and is home to the Akimel O’oodham (Pima) and the Pee-Posh (Maricopa) tribes. Gila River Health Care, a premier Native American healthcare system, provides high quality patient care, delivering a wide variety of medical services such as general surgery, dental, and emergency medicine, as well as associated health services such as pharmacy and laboratory operations, skilled nursing and rehabilitation.
TOMI Service Network
The TOMI Service Network, or TSN, is an expansive network consisting of professionals throughout North America who are exclusively licensed and trained to use the SteraMist® products. With the purchase of SteraMist and joining TSN, TOMI trains and services a wide array of professional remediation companies in the use of SteraMist® throughout the TSN division. TSN allows for increased accessibility and brand awareness of iHP® services to facilities in need of local routine and emergency disinfection and decontamination.
The TOMI Service Network (TSN) division is addressing the cleaning protocols that have changed permanently due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and our network is expected to play a significant role in facilitating and maintaining these protocols throughout the United States and Canada. The urgency for emergency disinfection services may have declined, but the education and support of such services that TOMI personnel provide to our members creates an advantage by maintaining strong business relationships while they service thousands of SteraMist customers, and the world returns to the new normal.
Our SteraPak release is an important factor for this market that we will increase the new member onboarding. Current members are showing interest in purchasing the SteraPak to expand their current SteraMist offerings.
Food Safety
Food Safety presents significant potential as an opportunity for substantial growth with continued product research and compliance testing. With the food safety industry in North America coming under closer scrutiny with the implementation and enforcement of new and established guidelines. This concentration has previously been approved by the USDA and FDA for direct food and crop application and will allow SteraMist® to expand use sites beyond food processing machinery, restaurants, and food contact areas. This will assist compliance with the newly established Food Safety Modernization Act guidelines set in place by the FDA, as well as the Safe Food for Canadians Act and Safe Food for Canadians Regulations in Canada.
TOMI continues to work with premium companies in testing and validating SteraMist® technology in the Food Safety and seed industries. In 2022, we look to make further progress in enhancing brand awareness by promoting and marketing this division. We are receiving an increase in inquiries within the Food Safety division directly from these efforts.
With the global population explosion, we anticipate an increase in the demand for a mechanical way to disinfect our food supply. Every day there are news articles around the world pertaining to the contamination of food supply. The many published articles that the USDA in cooperation with TOMI have demonstrated that our technology offers a consistent alternative to the decade’s old chemical disinfection process.
SteraMist will deliver more consistent and quicker results in all areas of our food supply- From Farm to Market, Processing to packaging and Storage to delivery. We plan on pursuing all these avenues. With the continued testing and need for the market coupled with our new .35% label, should make pursuing these opportunities successful. In addition, our solution and process is environmentally friendly in that the biproduct of SteraMist is only oxygen and humidity. We have our solution listed on OMRI and labeled as organic. Most disinfectants leave residue on furniture, objects, and foods. SteraMist does not leave any chemical residue on any surface. We have a very low carbon footprint, if any.
Commercial
Our Commercial division includes but is not limited to use sites such as aviation, airports, police and fire, prisons, manufacturing companies, automobile, military, cruise ships, shipping ports, preschool education, primary and secondary schools, colleges including dormitories, all modes of public and private transportation, regulatory consulting agencies, retail, housing and recreation, and of course emergency preparedness for counties and cities to use SteraMist® throughout their community.

Table of Contents |
Interest in SteraMist disinfection within the commercial division remains high. The SteraPak is a popular product for this division because customers are looking for a more cost-effective solution compared to the current disinfectants on the market. As quick and mobile disinfection solution is preferred in this industry, we believe that SteraPak will generate substantial customer interest and create sales opportunities. Currently our customers are purchasing our SteraPak in all of our divisions to provide quick disinfection throughout various sites in their facilities.
Business Highlights and Recent Events
Revenues:
Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, was $2,309,000 and $2,073,000, respectively, representing an increase of $236,000, or 11% compared to the same prior year period. The first quarter sales grew by 15% over what was reported in the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase in revenue was attributable to higher demand for our mobile equipment and iHP Corporate service revenue.
SteraMist product-based revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, were $1,886,000 and $1,661,000, representing an increase of $225,000 or 14% when compared to the same prior year period.
Our service-based revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, was $423,000 and $412,000, respectively, representing a year over year increase of 3%.
Our domestic revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $1,879,000 and $1,804,000, respectively, an increase of $75,000, or 4% when compared to the same prior year period.
Internationally, our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, was approximately $430,000 and $269,000, respectively, representing an increase of $161,000 or 60% when compared to the first quarter of 2021.
We continue to see positive signs in the marketplace with our customers and prospective customers which has contributed to our growth in our reportable revenue for the first quarter and bolstered our current sales pipeline. During the first quarter we received approximately $3,500,000 in orders, of which we anticipate $3,200,000 will be recognized as revenue in our current calendar year. As of March 31, 2022, we maintain deposits from customers of approximately $607,000 which down payments on future orders that are expected to be recognized into revenue in 2022. The growth in our orders was due to increased demand for our mobile equipment and Custom Engineered Systems (CES) from both the life science and hospital sectors.
We believe that we possess the best technologies in the world in the disinfection and decontamination space. The COVID-19 pandemic has provided us with the opportunity and motivation to implement a clear strategy to develop and manufacture additional products to add to our portfolio. In addition, we continue to move our BIT technology as a standard in disinfection and decontamination globally, which we believe will lead to increased market share, profitability, and capability strength. Our products are an environmentally friendly solution and process which address the concerns of sustainability. Customers are requesting and discussing the positive results of our product and the environmentally friendly results compared to the caustic results of other disinfectants.
Dangerous pathogens still exist and will exist long after we recover from this pandemic. While the United States and most of the world is currently recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic, there are many pathogens which are respiratory in nature that are still a looming threat; these cases are occurring globally to this day. We believe SteraMist can mitigate and reduce the impact of the next pandemic as it has already proved during the outbreaks of Ebola, MERS and recently with SARS CoV-2 pandemic. As the world faces uncertainty with an ongoing war, SteraMist is prepared for a chemical and biological warfare with proven efficacy against many agents, as well as inventory and support readily to deploy at a moment’s notice. The need for a speedy comprehensive mechanical disinfectant like SteraMist cannot be stressed enough and should be included as the new norm of cleaning.

Kalera, a global leader in vertical community farms for greens and culinary herbs harvested on demand all year is highly motivated to have iHP SteraMist be their cleaning decontamination solution. The recently received report outlines decontamination protocols and calculated savings and estimated service and purchasing options for Kalera.
TOMI has once again partnered with USDA Agricultural Research Service for continued research on BIT solution and the modeling of cold plasma-activated hydrogen peroxide process, evaluating concentration, treatment time, and dwell time on the efficacy of the technology against bacteria on stem scar and smooth surfaces of tomatoes. Although the final paper is with the reviewers to the journal, the final draft of this latest publication was approved late March of this year.

Received great preliminary biotoxin iHP inactivation data against Ricin A Chain by a U.S. government agency who will be expanding testing to Botulinum and SEB toxoids. TOMI is working directly with the agency to find funding and supporting efforts to validate their toxoid protocols against fully functional toxins. This same agency is constructing a scalable, reusable, portable iHP decontamination chamber for field remediation of biologically contaminated equipment.
Bio-Risk Decontamination and Restoration owner David Mark Quigley published the book Mycotoxin Deactivation: A Successful Mycotoxin Treatment and Reduction Case Study on the assessment, identification, treatment, and deactivation and validation procedures of Mycotoxins highlighting SteraMist iHP as the treatment for deactivating and render them inert. The book is available online at Amazon, Apple Books, and Rakuten kobo.
As previously discussed, TOMI has engaged HYGCEN Germany GmbH to perform a quantitative test of germ carriers for airborne room disinfection and testing of the effectiveness of a method for disinfecting room air to meet the new EU norm (standard) EN 17272. Certification that Binary Ionization Technology meets the new standard will continue to position iHP as the premier decontamination/disinfection technology available on the market today. On September 16, 2021, we announced that our technology has passed the EN 17272 evaluation. The EN 17272 is the European standard for airborne room disinfection in the form of gas, steam and/or aerosol.
We have participated in a large multi-year federal funded study, known as the “SHIELD study” that compares hospital manual cleaning to a SteraMist® mechanical cleaning. Preliminary results collected by the current hospitals in the study is showing a decrease in the transference of pathogens resulting in HAIs and Clostridium difficile infections in the rooms that used SteraMist® for their terminal clean, as compared to the rooms that have been manually cleaned. Sufficient data has been collected to complete the study in 2021, and we expect that data to be provided to the examiners with a published paper to soon follow.

Sales and Revenue
Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, was $2,309,000 and $2,073,000, respectively, representing an increase of $236,000, or 11% compared to the same prior year period. The increase in revenue was attributable to higher mobile equipment sales and iHP service revenue.
As customers mature through the product and adoption cycle and our sales pipeline converts to revenue, we expect to generate more predictable sales quarter over quarter. Further, as the COVID-19 pandemic subsides, we expect that the demand for our products and services will continue as we are building a team to address the post COVID-19 pandemic market opportunities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $5,330,000 and working capital of $10,797,000. Our principal capital requirements are to fund operations, invest in research and development and capital equipment, and the continued costs of public company reporting requirements. We have historically funded our operations through funds generated through operations and debt and equity financings. The sale of additional equity securities could result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and may include operating and financial covenants that would restrict our operations. We cannot be certain that any financing will be available in the amounts we need or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.
In September 2021, we sold 2,869,442 shares of common stock through a registered direct offering to certain institutional investors and issued 1,434,721 warrants in a concurrent private placement. We received net proceeds from the transaction of $4,581,651, after deducting the placement agent’s fees and other estimated offering expenses. The Warrants have an exercise price of $1.68 per share, are exercisable immediately upon issuance and have a term of exercise equal to five years from the date of issuance.
For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, we incurred a loss from operations of ($660,000) and ($1,510,000), respectively. Cash provided from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022, was $27,000. Cash used in operations was $1,225,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Liquidity
Our revenues can fluctuate due to the following factors, among others:
| · | ramp up and expansion of our internal sales force and manufacturers’ representatives; |
| · | length of our sales cycle; |
| · | global response to the outbreak of COVID-19 Pandemic; |
| · | expansion into new territories and markets; and |
| · | timing of orders from distributors. |
We could incur operating losses and an increase of costs related to the continuation of product and technology development, sales expense as we continue to grow our sales teams, inventory as we continue to ensure we have products needed and geographic presence, tooling capital expenditures as we ramp up and streamline our production and administrative activities including compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 Section 404.
Management has taken and will endeavor to continue to take a number of actions in order to improve our results of operations and the related cash flows generated from operations in order to strengthen our financial position, including the following items:
| · | expanding our label with the EPA to further our product registration internationally; |
| · | continued expansion of our internal sales force and manufacturer representatives in an effort to drive global revenue in all verticals; |
| · | continue research and development and add new products to our “Stera” product line; |
| · | source alternative lower-cost suppliers; |
| · | expansion of international distributors; and |
| · | continued growth in all of our verticals. |
We expect that the cash we generate from our core operations will generally be sufficient to cover our future capital expenditures and to pay down our near-term debt obligations, although we may choose to seek alternative financing sources.

We believe that our existing balance of cash and cash equivalents and amounts expected to be provided by operations will provide us with sufficient financial resources to meet our cash requirements for operations, working capital and capital expenditures over the next twelve months.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The estimation process requires assumptions to be made about future events and conditions, and as such, is inherently subjective and uncertain. Actual results could differ materially from our estimates.
The SEC defines critical accounting policies as those that are, in management’s view, most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and most demanding of our judgment. We consider the following policies to be critical to an understanding of our condensed consolidated financial statements and the uncertainties associated with the complex judgments made by us that could impact our results of operations, financial position and cash flows.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). We recognize revenue when we transfer promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for contracts with customers we perform the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy the performance obligation(s). At contract inception, we assess the goods or services promised within each contract, assess whether each promised good or service is distinct and identify those that are performance obligations.
We must use judgment to determine: a) the number of performance obligations based on the determination under step (ii) above and whether those performance obligations are distinct from other performance obligations in the contract; b) the transaction price under step (iii) above; and c) the stand-alone selling price for each performance obligation identified in the contract for the allocation of transaction price in step (iv) above.
Title and risk of loss generally pass to our customers upon shipment. Our Customers include end users as well as dealers and distributors who market and sell our products. Our revenue is not contingent upon resale by the dealer or distributor, and we have no further obligations related to bringing about resale. Shipping and handling costs charged to customers are included in Product Revenues. The associated expenses are treated as fulfillment costs and are included in Cost of Revenues. Revenues are reported net of sales taxes collected from Customers.
Product revenue includes sales from our standard and customized equipment, solution and accessories sold with our equipment. Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products.
Service and training revenue include sales from our high-level decontamination and service engagements, validation of our equipment and technology and customer training. Service revenue is recognized as the agreed upon services are rendered to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those services.
Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer
We apply a practical expedient to expense costs as incurred for costs to obtain a contract with a customer when the amortization period would have been one year or less. We generally expense sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are recorded within selling expenses.
38 |
Table of Contents |
Contract Balances
As of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021 we did not have any unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.
Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations
Our contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. We enter into contracts that can include various combinations of products and services, which are primarily distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations.
Significant Judgments
Our contracts with customers for products and services often dictate the terms and conditions of when the control of the promised products or services is transferred to the customer and the amount of consideration to be received in exchange for the products and services.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to accounts receivable, inventory, fair values of financial instruments, intangible assets, useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, fair values of stock-based awards, income taxes, and contingent liabilities, among others. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of our assets and liabilities.
Fair Value Measurements
The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or the most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal market that are (i) independent, (ii) knowledgeable, (iii) able to transact, and (iv) willing to transact. The guidance describes a fair value hierarchy based on the levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, which are the following:
| Level 1: | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
|
| Level 2: | Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
|
| Level 3: | Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the value of the assets or liabilities. |
Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses. All these items were determined to be Level 1 fair value measurements.
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximated fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, held at financial institutions and other liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. At times, these deposits may be in excess of insured limits.
Accounts Receivable
Our accounts receivable are typically from credit worthy customers or, for certain international customers, are supported by pre-payments. For those customers to whom we extend credit, we perform periodic evaluations of them and maintain allowances for potential credit losses as deemed necessary. We have a policy of reserving for doubtful accounts based on our best estimate of the amount of potential credit losses in existing accounts receivable. We periodically review our accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account may be in doubt. Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories consist primarily of finished goods.
We expense costs to maintain certification to cost of goods sold as incurred.
We review inventory on an ongoing basis, considering factors such as deterioration and obsolescence. We record an allowance for estimated losses when the facts and circumstances indicate that particular inventories may not be usable.
Property and Equipment
We account for property and equipment at cost less accumulated depreciation. We compute depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three to five years. Depreciation for equipment, furniture and fixtures and vehicles commences once placed in service for its intended use. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the lives of the respective leases or service lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter.
Leases
We recognize a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability for all leases with terms of more than 12 months, in accordance with ASC 842. We utilize the short-term lease recognition exemption for all asset classes as part of our on-going accounting under ASC 842. This means, for those leases that qualify, we will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities. Recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses depends on classification as a finance or operating lease.
As a lessee, we utilize the reasonably certain threshold criteria in determining which options we will exercise. Furthermore, our lease payments are based on index rates with minimum annual increases. These represent fixed payments and are captured in the future minimum lease payments calculation. In determining the discount rate to use in calculating the present value of lease payments, we used our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at adoption date in determining the present value of lease payments.
We have also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all asset classes, meaning all consideration that is fixed, or in-substance fixed, will be captured as part of our lease components for balance sheet purposes. Furthermore, all variable payments included in lease agreements will be disclosed as variable lease expense when incurred. Generally, variable lease payments are based on usage and common area maintenance. These payments will be included as variable lease expense when recognized.
Capitalized Software Development Costs
In accordance with ASC 985-20 regarding the development of software to be sold, leased, or marketed we expense such costs as they are incurred until technological feasibility has been established, at and after which time those costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers. The periodic expense for the amortization of capitalized software development costs will be included in cost of sales.

Accrued Warranties
Accrued warranties represent the estimated costs, if any, that will be incurred during the warranty period of our products. We estimate the expected costs to be incurred during the warranty period and record the expense to the condensed consolidated statement of operations at the date of sale. Our manufacturers assume the warranty against product defects which we extend to our customers upon sale of the product. We assume responsibility for product reliability and results.
Income Taxes
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The measurement of deferred income tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits that are, on a more likely than not basis, not expected to be realized in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) guidance for income taxes.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income or (loss) per share is computed by dividing our net income or (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period presented. Diluted income or (loss) per share is based on the treasury stock method and includes the effect from potential issuance of shares of common stock, such as shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of options and warrants and conversions of preferred stock or debentures.
Equity Compensation Expense
We account for equity compensation expense in accordance with FASB ASC 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation.” Under the provisions of FASB ASC 718, equity compensation expense is estimated at the grant date based on the award’s fair value and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period.
On July 7, 2017, our shareholders approved the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2016 Plan. The 2016 Plan authorizes the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance units/shares. Up to 625,000 shares of common stock are authorized for issuance under the 2016 Plan. Shares issued under the 2016 Plan may be either authorized but unissued shares, treasury shares, or any combination thereof. Provisions in the 2016 Plan permit the reuse or reissuance by the 2016 Plan of shares of common stock for numerous reasons, including, but not limited to, shares of common stock underlying canceled, expired, or forfeited awards of stock-based compensation and stock appreciation rights paid out in the form of cash. Equity compensation expense will typically be awarded in consideration for the future performance of services to us. All recipients of awards under the 2016 Plan are required to enter into award agreements with us at the time of the award; awards under the 2016 Plan are expressly conditioned upon such agreements.
On December 30, 2020, we received shareholder approval to amend and restate the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan to increase the maximum number of shares of common stock authorized from issuance by 1,375,000, from 625,000 shares to 2,000,000.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. We maintain cash balances at financial institutions which exceed the current Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit of $250,000 at times during the year.

Long-Lived Assets Including Acquired Intangible Assets
We assess long-lived assets for potential impairments at the end of each year, or during the year if an event or other circumstance indicates that we may not be able to recover the carrying amount of the asset. In evaluating long-lived assets for impairment, we measure recoverability of these assets by comparing the carrying amounts to the future undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If our long-lived assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized equals the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair market value. We base the calculations of the estimated fair value of our long-lived assets on the income approach. For the income approach, we use an internally developed discounted cash flow model that includes, among others, the following assumptions: projections of revenues and expenses and related cash flows based on assumed long-term growth rates and demand trends; expected future investments to grow new units; and estimated discount rates. We base these assumptions on our historical data and experience, industry projections, micro and macro general economic condition projections, and our expectations. We had no long-lived asset impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (Topic 805). This ASU requires an acquirer in a business combination to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities (deferred revenue) from acquired contracts using the revenue recognition guidance in Topic 606. At the acquisition date, the acquirer applies the revenue model as if it had originated the acquired contracts. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption of the ASU should be applied prospectively. Early adoption is also permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If early adopted, the amendments are applied retrospectively to all business combinations for which the acquisition date occurred during the fiscal year of adoption. This ASU is currently not expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832). This ASU requires business entities to disclose information about government assistance they receive if the transactions were accounted for by analogy to either a grant or a contribution accounting model. The disclosure requirements include the nature of the transaction and the related accounting policy used, the line items on the balance sheets and statements of operations that are affected and the amounts applicable to each financial statement line item and the significant terms and conditions of the transactions. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021. We adopted ASU 2021-10 starting in 2022, which did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Our disclosure controls and procedures are intended to ensure that the information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Based on that evaluation, our management has concluded that, as of March 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level because we have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as discussed below, and such material weakness has not been remediated as of March 31, 2022.
Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Our management recognizes that any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain judgments and assumptions and cannot provide absolute assurance that its objectives will be met. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. Similarly, an evaluation of controls cannot provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.
Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management have concluded that, as of March 31, 2022, we did not maintain effective controls over the preparation, review, presentation and disclosure of our financial statements relating to bad debt. Specifically, we noted the following:
| · | We did not design or maintain effective controls with respect to the review of the accounting for bad debt reserves, including maintaining effective controls to prevent or detect errors in the assessment of bad debt reserves. Specifically, our policy for bad debt reserves was primarily based on customer relationships and management’s view of the collectability of the receivables. The bad debt expense analysis resulted in a material adjustment to accounts receivable and bad debt expense for the year ended December 31, 2021. |
|
|
|
| · | We did not maintain effective controls to identify and maintain segregation of duties to support the identification, authorization, approval, accounting for, and the disclosure of bad debt reserves. |
These control deficiencies did not result in a misstatement to our consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, following the adjustment to accounts receivable as discussed above. However, these control deficiencies, if not remediated, could result in a misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements which would result in a material misstatement of the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, our management has determined that these control deficiencies constitute material weaknesses.
Remediation Plans
Our management, with oversight from our Audit Committee, is in the process of developing and implementing remediation plans in response to the identified material weaknesses described above. Specifically, we are revising our bad debt reserve policy to consider the time of balances outstanding along with the credit worthiness of the customer and revising our review and approval policies and procedures to include segregation of duties and approvals.
We believe the measures described above will remediate the control deficiencies we have identified and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting. These material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the applicable remediated controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. We are committed to continuing to improve our internal control processes and will continue to review, optimize and enhance our financial reporting controls and procedures.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During our most recent fiscal quarter, except as otherwise disclosed above regarding the material weakness and our remediation plan, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. We currently are not a party to any legal proceedings, the adverse outcome of which, in management’s opinion, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Regardless of the outcome, any litigation could have an adverse impact on us due to defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
You should carefully consider the information described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC on March 29, 2022. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors we previously disclosed in our filings with the SEC, including the Form 10-K. Our operations could also be affected by additional factors that are not presently known to us or by factors that we currently consider immaterial to our business.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to regain and maintain compliance with continued listing standards of the Nasdaq Capital Market.
The Nasdaq Capital Market’s continued listing standards for our common stock require, among other things, that (i) we maintain a closing bid price for our common stock of at least $1.00, and (ii) we maintain: (A) stockholders’ equity of $2.5 million; (B) market value of listed securities of $35 million; or (C) net income from continuing operations of $500,000 in the most recently completed fiscal year or in two of the last three most recently completed fiscal years. Any failures to satisfy any continued listing requirements could lead to the receipt of a deficiency notice from the Nasdaq and ultimately to a delisting from trading of our common stock.
On April 14, 2022, we received a deficiency letter notifying us that we had not maintained a closing bid price for our common stock of at least $1.00 for a 30-day period. In accordance with Nasdaq rules, we have been provided an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until October 11, 2022 (the “Compliance Date”), to regain compliance with the bid price requirement. If we do not regain compliance with the bid price requirement by the Compliance Date, we may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period. If we do not regain compliance with the bid price requirement by October 11, 2022 and are not eligible for an additional compliance period at that time, our common stock will be subject to delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market. We cannot be certain that we will be able to regain compliance and then maintain compliance with the minimum bid price and the other standards in order to maintain a listing of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
If our common stock were delisted from the Nasdaq Capital Market, among other things, this could result in a number of negative implications, including reduced liquidity in our common stock as a result of the loss of market efficiencies associated with Nasdaq and the loss of federal preemption of state securities laws as well as the potential loss of confidence by suppliers, customers and employees, institutional investor interest, fewer business development opportunities, greater difficulty in obtaining financing and breaches of certain contractual obligations.
