Going Concern
Note 2: Going Concern
 
Historically, the Company’s sources of cash have come from the issuance and sales of equity securities and convertible debentures. The Company’s historical cash outflows have been primarily used for operating activities including research, development, administrative and sales activities. Fluctuations in the Company’s working capital due to timing differences of its cash receipts and cash disbursements also impact its cash flow. The Company expects to incur significant additional operating losses through at least the end of 2014, as it completes proof-of-concept trials, conducts outcome-based clinical studies and increases sales and marketing efforts to commercialize the WavSTAT4 Systems in Europe. If the Company does not receive sufficient funding, there is substantial doubt that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern. The Company may incur unknown expenses or may not be able to meet its revenue forecast, and one or more of these circumstances would require the Company to seek additional capital. The Company may not be able to obtain equity capital or debt funding on terms that are acceptable. Even if the Company receives additional funding, such proceeds may not be sufficient to allow the Company to sustain operations until it becomes profitable and begins to generate positive cash flows from operations.
 
As of December 31, 2013, the Company had a working capital deficit of $4,080,488 and cash of $236,597, compared to a working capital deficit of $3,340,787 and cash of $90,192 as of December 31, 2012. In December 2011, the Company entered into an Engagement Agreement with Laidlaw & Company (UK) Ltd., which Engagement Agreement was amended in July 2012. Under the Engagement Agreement, Laidlaw agreed to assist the Company in raising up to $20.0 million in capital over a two year period from the date of the Engagement Agreement. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company raised $692,560, net of transaction costs of $169,440, under this agreement. Subsequent to June 30, 2013, the Company has engaged another agent to assist it with raising capital and has commenced raising capital on its own. During the six months ended December 31, 2013, the Company raised $1,156,576, net of transaction costs of $103,424, under this agreement. However, if the Company does not receive additional funds in a timely manner, the Company could be in jeopardy as a going concern. The Company may not be able to find alternative capital or raise capital or debt on terms that are acceptable. Management believes that if the events defined in the Engagement Agreement occur as expected, such proceeds will be sufficient to allow the Company to sustain operations until it attains profitability and positive cash flows from operations. However, the Company may incur unknown expenses or may not be able to meet its revenue expectations requiring it to seek additional capital. In such event, the Company may not be able to find capital or raise capital or debt on terms that are acceptable.
  
The holders of Convertible Debentures control the conversion of the Convertible Debentures and certain of the Convertible Debentures were not converted at their maturity constituting a potential default on the matured, but unconverted, Convertible Debentures. In the event of such default, principal, accrued interest and other related costs are immediately due and payable in cash. As of December 31, 2013, Convertible Debentures with a face value of $1,324,212 held by 32 individual investors are in default. None of these investors have served notice of default on the Convertible Debentures held by them.
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
