Business and Organization
 
Description of Business
 
 
BioLargo, Inc. delivers innovative and sustainable technology-based products and services, as well as environmental engineering expertise, across a broad range of industries with an overriding mission to “make life better” with a focus on clean water, clean air, and advanced wound care. Our business strategy is straightforward: we invent or acquire technologies that we believe have the potential to be disruptive in large commercial markets; we develop and validate these technologies to advance and promote their commercial success as we leverage our considerable scientific, engineering, and entrepreneurial talent; we then monetize these technical assets through a variety of business structures that
may
include licensure, joint venture, sale, spin off, or by deploying direct to market strategies.
 
Liquidity / Going concern
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of our business. For the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2019,
we had a net loss of
$8,625,000,
used
$3,181,000
cash in operations, and at
September 30, 2019,
had a working capital deficit of
$2,191,000
and current assets of
$2,566,000.
We have been, and anticipate that we will continue to be, limited in terms of our capital resources. During the year ended
December 31, 2018,
and the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2019,
we generated revenues of
$1,364,000
and
$1,324,000
through our business segments (Odor-
No
-More and BLEST – see Note
10,
“Business Segment Information”). Neither generated an operating profit sufficient to fund their operations.
 
As of
September 30, 2019,
we had approximately
$2.1
million cash on hand, and over
$5
million current debt obligations. Subsequent to
September 30, 2019,
$645,000
have been satisfied through the payment of cash, and
$609,000
through conversion to our common stock (see Note
12
). As of the date of this Report,
one
debt obligation due within
12
months, in the amount of
$370,000,
must be paid in cash if the investor does
not
exercise the right to convert the note to our common stock (see Note
4,
“Convertible Note, matures
April 7, 2020”).
Additionally, we have approximately
$3.2
million in
12
-month OID notes due within
12
months, which will be converted to common stock unless the Company receives at least
$3.5
million in gross proceeds from a financing transaction. All other debt obligations due within
12
months are convertible at maturity. We continue to raise money through private securities offerings, and continue to negotiate for more substantial financings from private and institutional investors. During the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2019,
we received
$4,690,000
net cash provided by financing activities, and at
September 30, 2019
had cash of
$2,136,000.
 
The foregoing factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Ultimately, our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to attract significant new sources of capital, attain a reasonable threshold of operating efficiencies and achieve profitable operations by licensing or otherwise commercializing products incorporating our technologies. The consolidated financial statements do
not
include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.
 
Organization
 
We are a Delaware corporation formed in
1991.
We have
five
wholly-owned subsidiaries: BioLargo Life Technologies, Inc., organized under the laws of the State of California in
2006;
Odor-
No
-More, Inc., organized under the laws of the State of California in
2009;
BioLargo Water Investment Group Inc. organized under the laws of the State of California in
2019,
which wholly owns BioLargo Water, Inc., organized under the laws of Canada in
2014;
BioLargo Development Corp., organized under the laws of the State of California in
2016;
and BioLargo Engineering Science and Technologies, LLC, organized under the laws of the State of Tennessee in
2017
(“BLEST”). Additionally, we own
38%
of Clyra Medical Technologies, Inc. (“Clyra Medical”), organized under the laws of the State of California in
2012,
and consolidate their financial statements (see Notes
2
and
8
).
 
The unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to Rule
8
-
03
of Regulation S-
X
under the Securities Act of
1933,
as amended. Accordingly, they do
not
include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. For some of our activities, we are still operating in the early stages of the sales and distribution process, and therefore our operating results for the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2019
are
not
necessarily indicative of the results that
may
be expected for the year ending
December 
31,
 
2019,
or for any other period. These unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Annual Report on Form
10
-K for the year ended
December 31, 2018
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on
March 29, 2019,
as amended.
