Note 1. Business and Organization

Description of Business 

BioLargo, Inc. is an innovative technology developer and environmental engineering company driven by a mission to "make life better" by delivering robust, sustainable solutions for a broad range of industries and applications, with a focus on clean water, clean air. The company also owns a minority interest in an advanced wound care subsidiary that has licensed BioLargo Technologies and it plans to spin out or sell when the appropriate opportunity is identified.  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 three months ended March 31, 2020, we had a net loss of $2,616,000, used $753,000 cash in operations, and at March 31, 2020, we had a working capital deficit of $3,651,000, and current assets of $1,080,000. We do not believe gross profits in the immediate future will be sufficient to fund our current level of operations or pay the $550,000 in debt due August, 2020 which is convertible at the option of the debt-holder. We have been, and anticipate that we will continue to be, limited in terms of our capital resources. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we generated revenues of $439,000 through two business segments (Odor-No-More and BLEST – see Note 10, “Business Segment Information”). Neither generated enough revenues to fund their operations, or fund our corporate operations, overhead or other business segments, and thus, in light of our cash position at December 31, 2019, in order to continue operations, during the quarter we conducted private securities offerings and sold common stock to Lincoln Park (see Note 3). With respect to the debt due August 2020, we intend to pay the debt through proceeds from our various financing resources, convert the remaining balance to equity, or renegotiate the terms; the remainder of debt due in 2020 is convertible at our option at maturity.

On March 30, 2020, we entered into a new three-year agreement with Lincoln Park (see Note 3), which allows us to sell to Lincoln Park up to 100,000 shares of our common stock per day, up to a maximum of $10,250,000. We intend to continue to sell stock to Lincoln Park to provide working capital as needed. We also intend to raise money through private securities offerings. And, we continue to negotiate for more financing from private investors. Other than sales of stock to Lincoln Park, no assurance can be made of our success at raising money through private or public offerings.

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 four 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; and BioLargo Development Corp., organized under the laws of the State of California in 2016. Additionally, we own 97.5% (see Note 10) of BioLargo Engineering Science and Technologies, LLC, organized under the laws of the State of Tennessee in 2017 (“BLEST”). We also own 36% of Clyra Medical Technologies, Inc. (“Clyra Medical”), organized under the laws of the State of California in 2012, and consolidate their financial statements (see Note 2, subheading “Principles of Consolidation,” and Note 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 three months ended March 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020, 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, 2019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 31, 2020.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

In the opinion of management, the accompanying balance sheet and related statements of operations, cash flows, and stockholders’ deficit include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, necessary for their fair presentation in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and Clyra Medical. Management believes Clyra Medical’s financial statements are appropriately consolidated with that of the Company after reviewing the guidance of ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation”, and concluding that BioLargo controls Clyra Medical. While BioLargo does not have voting interest control through a majority stock ownership of Clyra Medical (it owns 36% of the outstanding voting stock), it does exercise control under the “Variable Interest Model”: there is substantial board overlap, BioLargo is the primary beneficiary since it has the power to direct Clyra Medical’s activities that most significantly impact Clyra Medical’s performance, and it has the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits (through royalties and licensing) that could be potentially significant to Clyra Medical. BioLargo has consolidated Clyra Medical’s operations for all periods presented.

All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated (see Note 8). 

Foreign Currency

The Company has designated the functional currency of BioLargo Water, Inc., our Canadian subsidiary, to be the Canadian dollar. Therefore, translation gains and losses resulting from differences in exchange rates are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three-months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. Substantially all cash equivalents are held in short-term money market accounts at one of the largest financial institutions in the United States. From time to time, our cash account balances are greater than the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit of $250,000 per owner per bank, and during such times, we are exposed to credit loss for amounts in excess of insured limits in the event of non-performance by the financial institution. We do not anticipate non-performance by our financial institution.

Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivable are recorded net of allowances for doubtful accounts. Estimates for allowances for doubtful accounts are determined based on payment history and individual customer circumstances. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020 was $24,000.

Credit Concentration

We have a limited number of customers that account for significant portions of our revenue. During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2020, we had three customers that each accounted for more than 10% of consolidated revenues in the respective periods, as follows:

	March 31, 2019			March 31, 2020
Customer A		<10	%		14	%
Customer B		<10	%		11	%
Customer C		<10	%		10	%
Customer D		43	%		<10	%
Customer E		10	%		<10	%
Customer F		26	%		<10	%

We had two customers that accounted for more than 10% of consolidated accounts receivable at December 31, 2019 and one customer that accounted for more than 10% of consolidated accounts receivable at March 31, 2020 as follows:

	December 31, 2019			March 31, 2020
Customer G		<10	%		12	%
Customer H		25	%		<10	%
Customer I		11	%		<10	%

Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the average cost method. The allowance for obsolete inventory as of December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020 was $3,000. As of December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020, inventories consisted of (in thousands):

	December 31, 2019		March 31, 2020
Raw material	$	11	$	30
Finished goods		5		3
Total	$	16	$	33

Other Assets

Other Assets consisted of security deposits of $35,000 related to our business offices.

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU Update No. 2016-02, “Leases,” which requires lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets as a right-of-use asset with a corresponding lease liability, and lessors to recognize a net lease investment. Additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures are also required. We adopted this standard effective January 1, 2019 using the effective date option, which resulted in a $399,000 gross up of assets and liabilities; this balance may fluctuate over time as we enter into new leases, extend or terminate current leases. Upon the transition to the ASC 842, the Company elected to use hindsight as a practical expedient with respect to determining the lease terms (as we considered our updated expectations of acceptance of the Westminster California facility lease renewal) and in assessing any impairment of right-of-use assets for existing leases. No impairment is expected at this time.  As of March 31, 2020, the gross up of our balance sheet related to our operating leases totals $386,000.

Impairment

Long-lived and definite lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than the carrying amount of the asset, then an impairment loss is recognized. The impairment loss is measured based on the fair value of the asset. Any resulting impairment is recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the related asset in excess of fair value and a charge to operating results. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2020, management determined that there was no impairment of its long-lived assets, including its In-process Research and Development at Clyra (see Note 8).

Equity Method of Accounting

On March 20, 2020, we invested $100,000 into a South Korean entity (Odin Co. Ltd., “Odin”) pursuant to a Joint Venture agreement we had entered into with BKT Co. Ltd. and its U.S. subsidiary, Tomorrow Water. We received a 40% non-dilutive equity interest, and BKT and Tomorrow Water each received 30% equity interests for an aggregate $150,000 investment.

We account for our investment in the joint venture under the equity method of accounting. We have determined that while we have significant influence over the joint venture through our technology license and our position on the Board of Directors, we do not control the joint venture or are otherwise involved in managing the entity and we own less than a majority of the equity. Therefore, we record the asset on our consolidated balance sheet and record an increase or decrease the recorded balance by our percentage ownership of the profits or losses in the joint venture. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the joint venture incurred a loss and our 40% ownership share reduced our investment interest by $1,000.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

We report basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) for common and common share equivalents. Basic EPS is computed by dividing reported earnings by the weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by adding to the weighted average shares the dilutive effect if stock options and warrants were exercised into common stock. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2020, the denominator in the diluted EPS computation is the same as the denominator for basic EPS due to the anti-dilutive effect of the warrants and stock options on the Company’s net loss.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the period reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates are used when accounting for stock-based transactions, debt transactions, derivative liabilities, allowance for bad debt, asset depreciation and amortization, among others.

The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying these most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results of our financial statements.

Share-Based Compensation Expense

We recognize compensation expense for stock option awards on a straight-line basis over the applicable service period of the award, which is the vesting period. Fair value is determined on the grant date. Share-based compensation expense is based on the grant date fair value estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.

For stock and stock options issued to consultants and other non-employees for services, the Company measures and records an expense as of the earlier of the date at which either: a commitment for performance by the non-employee has been reached or the non-employee’s performance is complete. The equity instruments are measured at the current fair value, and for stock options, the instruments are measured at fair value using the Black Scholes option model.

For equity instruments issued and outstanding where performance is not complete, but the instrument has been recorded, those instruments are measured again at their then current fair market values at each of the reporting dates (they are “marked-to market”) until the performance and the contract are complete.

The following methodology and assumptions were used to calculate share-based compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2020:

	2019						2020
	Non Plan			2018 Plan			Non Plan			2018 Plan
Risk free interest rate	1.68	-	2.65%	1.68	-	2.65%		0.88	%	0.88	-	1.90%
Expected volatility	133	-	152%	133	-	152%		131	%	131	-	133%
Expected dividend yield		—			—			—			—
Forfeiture rate		—			—			—			—
Life in years		10			10			10			10

Expected price volatility is the measure by which our stock price is expected to fluctuate during the expected term of an option. Expected volatility is derived from the historical daily change in the market price of our common stock, as we believe that historical volatility is the best indicator of future volatility.

The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes calculation is based on the prevailing U.S. Treasury yield as determined by the U.S. Federal Reserve. We have never paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

Historically, we have not had significant forfeitures of unvested stock options granted to employees and Directors. A significant number of our stock option grants are fully vested at issuance or have short vesting provisions. Therefore, we have estimated the forfeiture rate of our outstanding stock options as zero.

Warrants

Warrants issued with our convertible promissory notes, note payables, line of credit are accounted for under the fair value and relative fair value method.

The warrant is first analyzed per its terms as to whether it has derivative features or not. If the warrant is determined to be a derivative and not qualify for equity treatment, then it is measured at fair value using the Black Scholes option model, and recorded as a liability on the balance sheet. The warrant is re-measured at its then current fair value at each subsequent reporting date (it is “marked-to-market”).

If the warrant is determined to not have derivative features, it is recorded into equity at its fair value using the Black Scholes option model, however, limited to a relative fair value based upon the percentage of its fair value to the total fair value including the fair value of the convertible note.

The convertible note issued with the warrant is recorded at its fair value, limited to a relative fair value based upon the percentage of its fair value to the total fair value including the fair value of the warrant. Further, the convertible promissory note is examined for any intrinsic beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) of which the convertible price of the note is less than the closing common stock price on date of issuance. If the relative fair value method is used to value the convertible promissory note and there is an intrinsic BCF, a further analysis is undertaken of the BCF using an effective conversion price which assumes the conversion price is the relative fair value divided by the number of shares the convertible debt is converted into by its terms. The BCF value is accounted for as equity.

The warrant and BCF relative fair values are also recorded as a discount to the convertible promissory notes. At present, these equity features of the convertible promissory notes have recorded a discount to the convertible notes that is substantially equal to the proceeds received.

Non-Cash Transactions

We have established a policy relative to the methodology to determine the value assigned to each intangible we acquire, and/or services or products received for non-cash consideration of our common stock. The value is based on the market price of our common stock issued as consideration, at the date of the agreement of each transaction or when the service is rendered or product is received.

Revenue Recognition

We account for revenue in accordance with ASC 606, “revenue from Contacts with Customers”. The guidance focuses on the core principle for revenue recognition, which is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, the guidance provides that an entity should apply the following steps:

Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer.

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

Step 3: Determine the transaction price.

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

Step 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

We have revenue from two subsidiaries, Odor-No-More and BLEST. Odor-No-More identifies its contract with the customer through a written purchase order, in which the details of the contract are defined including the transaction price and method of shipment. The only performance obligation is to create and ship the product and each product has separate pricing. Odor-No-More recognizes revenue at a point in time when the order for its goods are shipped if its agreement with the customer is FOB Odor-No-More’s warehouse facility, and when goods are delivered to its customer if its agreement with the customer is FOB destination. Revenue is recognized with a reduction for sales discounts, as appropriate and negotiated in the customer’s purchase order. Odor-No-More also installs misting systems for which it bills on a time and materials basis. It identifies its contract with the customer through a written purchase order in which the details of the time to be billed and materials purchased and an estimated completion date. The performance obligation is the completion of the installation. Revenue is recognized in arrears as the work is performed.

BLEST identifies services to be performed in a written contract, which specifies the performance obligations and the rate at which the services will be billed. Each service is separately negotiated and priced. Revenue is recognized as services are performed and completed. BLEST’s contracts typically call for invoicing for time and materials incurred for that contract. A few contracts have called for milestone or fixed cost payments, where BLEST invoices an agreed-to amount per month for the life of the contract. In these instances, completed work, billed hourly, is recognized as revenue. If the billing amount is greater or lesser than the completed work, a receivable or payable is created. These accounts are adjusted upon additional billings as the work is completed. To date, there have been no discounts or other financing terms for the contracts.

In the event that we generate revenues from royalties or license fees from our intellectual property, we anticipate a licensee would pay a license fee in one or more installments and ongoing royalties based on their sales of products incorporating or using our licensed intellectual property. Upon entering into a licensing agreement, we will determine the appropriate method of recognizing the royalty and license fees.

Government Grants

We have been awarded multiple research grants from governmental and quasi-governmental institutions. The grants received are considered “other income” and are included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. We received our first grant in 2015 and have been awarded over 75 grants totaling over $3.6 million. Some of the funds from these grants are given directly to third parties (such as the University of Alberta or a third-party research scientist) to support research on our technology. The grants have terms generally ranging between six and eighteen months and support a majority, but not all, of the related research budget costs. This cooperative research allows us to utilize (i) a depth of resources and talent to accomplish highly skilled work, (ii) financial aid to support research and development costs, (iii) independent and credible validation of our technical claims.

The grants typically provide for (i) recurring monthly amounts, (ii) reimbursement of costs for research talent for which we invoice to request payment, and (iii) ancillary cost reimbursement for research talent travel related costs. All awarded grants have specific requirements on how the money is spent, typically to employ researchers. None of the funds may be used for general administrative expenses or overhead in the United States. These grants have substantially increased our level of research and development activities in Canada. We continue to apply for Canadian government and agency grants to fund research and development activities. Not all of our grant applications have been awarded, and no assurance can be made that any pending grant application, or any future grant applications, will be awarded.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Management believes the carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments (excluding debt and equity instruments) as of December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2020 approximate their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Such instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid assets, accounts payable, lines of credit, and other assets and liabilities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.” The amendments in this update modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. Management has concluded that new guidance does not impact the Company’s financial statements.

Note 3. Lincoln Park Financing

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, pursuant to our August 2017 agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (“Lincoln Park”), we elected to sell to Lincoln Park 1,398,223 shares of our common stock for which we received $295,000. Additionally, we issued Lincoln Park 14,420 “additional commitment” shares.  We did not sell any shares to Lincoln Park during the three months ended March 31, 2019.  In conjunction with the signing of the March 2020 agreement with Lincoln Park (see below), we recorded the remaining deferred offering costs totaling $122,000 as additional paid in capital on our consolidated balance sheet.

On March 30,^, 2020, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with Lincoln Park, pursuant to which Lincoln Park agreed to purchase from us at our request up to an aggregate of $10,250,000 of our common stock (subject to certain limitations) from time to time over a period of three years. The agreement allows us, at our sole discretion, to direct Lincoln Park to purchase shares of our common stock, subject to limitations in both volume and dollar amount. The purchase price of the shares that may be sold to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement is the lower of (i) the lowest sale price on the date of purchase, or (ii) the average of the three lowest closing prices in the prior 12 business days. There are no restrictions on future financings, rights of first refusal, participation rights, penalties or liquidated damages other than a prohibition on entering into a “Variable Rate Transaction,” as defined in the agreement. Lincoln Park may not assign or transfer its rights and obligations under the Purchase Agreement. This agreement replaced the August 2017 agreement with Lincoln Park. Concurrently with the Purchase Agreement, we entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which we filed a registration statement on Form S-1 with the SEC on April 10, 2020. This registration statement was declared effective on April 21, 2020, and as of April 29, 2020, we commenced regular purchases under the agreement.

In the March 30, 2020 agreement, we agreed to issue 2,928,571 shares to Lincoln Park as a commitment fee, valued at $527,000 and recorded as additional paid in capital on our consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2020.  Additionally, the Purchase Agreement provided for an initial sale of 1,785,715 shares to Lincoln Park for $250,000. We received those funds and issued the shares on March 31, 2020.

Convertible Note, matures October 7, 2019 (Vista Capital)

On January 7, 2019, Vista Capital Investments LLC (“Vista Capital”) invested $300,000 and in exchange we issued a convertible promissory note (the “Vista 2019 Note”) in the principal amount of $330,000. Originally set to mature nine months from the date of issuance, the maturity date was extended multiple times. The note earned a one-time interest charge of 12%, which was recorded as a discount on convertible notes and was amortized over the term of the note. The note allowed conversion of the note into our common stock at a price equal to 65% of the lowest closing bid price of the Company’s common stock during the 25 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the conversion date. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature resulted in a fair value totaling $300,000, and is recorded as a discount on convertible notes on our balance sheet. This discount will be amortized over the term of the note as interest expense, all of which was recorded in 2019.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, Vista Capital elected to convert the remaining balance of $270,000 of the outstanding principal and interest due on the note, and we issued 2,417,059 shares of our common stock.

Convertible Twelve-month OID notes

From June 7, 2019 through September 30, 2019, we received $2,235,000 and issued convertible promissory notes (each, a “12-Month OID Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $2,794,000, with a 25% original issue discount, to 34 accredited investors. The original issuance discount totaled $559,000 and is recorded as a discount on convertible notes payable on our balance sheet. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion features resulted in an aggregate fair value of $2,235,000, and is recorded as a discount on convertible notes on our balance sheet. The discounts will be amortized and recorded to interest expense over the term of the notes. These notes mature twelve months from the date of issuance.

(UNAUDITED)

During the three months July 1, 2019 through September 30, 2019, in exchange for $305,000 of convertible note payables that were coming due, we issued an additional $381,000 convertible promissory notes (each, a “12-Month OID Note), with a 25% original issue discount. The original issue discount totaled $76,000 and is recorded as a discount on convertible notes payable on our balance sheet. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion features resulted in an aggregate fair value of $381,000 and is recorded as debt extinguishment expense on our statement of operations. The discount will be amortized and recorded to interest expense over the term of the notes. These notes mature twelve months from the date of issuance.  

Each Twelve-month OID Note is convertible by the investor at any time at $0.17 per share. This initial conversion price shall be adjusted downward in the event the Company subsequently issues a convertible promissory note at a lower conversion rate (with this lower conversion rate becoming the adjusted conversion rate under the note), or conducts an equity offering at a per-share price less than $0.17. The notes earn interest at a rate of five percent (5%) per annum, due at maturity. The Company may prepay the notes only upon 10 days’ notice to the investor, during which time the investor may exercise his/her right to convert the note to stock. The Company is obligated to prepay the notes in the event it receives at least $3.5 million gross proceeds in a financing transaction. At maturity, the Company may redeem the notes through the issuance of common stock at a conversion price equal to the lower of the “conversion price” (initially $0.17, as may be adjusted), and 70% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock during the 25 trading days preceding the conversion date.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, noteholders elected to convert $165,000 of the outstanding principal of 12-Month OID Notes and we issued 970,590 shares of our common stock. As of March 31, 2020, the outstanding balance on the 12-Month OID Notes was $2,948,000.

2018 Equity Incentive Plan

On June 22, 2018, our stockholders adopted the BioLargo 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (“2018 Plan”) as a means of providing our directors, key employees and consultants additional incentive to provide services. Both stock options and stock grants may be made under this plan for a period of 10 years. Our Board of Director’s Compensation Committee administers this plan. As plan administrator, the Compensation Committee has sole discretion to set the price of the options. The plan authorizes the following types of awards: (i) incentive and non-qualified stock options, (ii) restricted stock awards, (iii) stock bonus awards, (iv) stock appreciation rights, (v) restricted stock units, and (vi) performance awards. The total number of shares reserved and available for awards pursuant to this Plan as of the date of adoption of this 2018 Plan by the Board is 40 million shares. The number of shares available to be issued under the 2018 Plan increases automatically each January 1^st by the lesser of (a) 2 million shares, or (b) such number of shares determined by our Board.

Chief Financial Officer Contract Extension

On February 25, 2020, we and our Chief Financial Officer Charles K. Dargan, II, formally agreed to extend the engagement agreement dated February 1, 2008 (the “Engagement Agreement”, which had been previously extended multiple times), pursuant to which Mr. Dargan has been and continues to serve as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. The Engagement Extension Agreement dated as of February 25, 2020 (the “Engagement Extension Agreement”) provides for an additional term to begin retroactively on October 1, 2019, and to expire January 31, 2021 (the “Extended Term”).

BIOLARGO, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

As compensation for the Extended Term, Mr. Dargan was issued an option (“Option”) to purchase 427,500 shares of our common stock. The Option vests over the period of the Extended Term, with 177,500 shares having vested as of March 31, 2020, and the remaining 250,000 shares to vest monthly through January 31, 2021, so long as the agreement is in full force and effect. The Option is exercisable at $0.21 per share, the closing price of our common stock on February 25, 2020, expires ten years from the grant date, and was issued pursuant to the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan.

The Option is Mr. Dargan’s sole compensation for the Extended Term. As was the case in all prior terms of his engagement, there is no cash component of his compensation for the Extended Term. Mr. Dargan is eligible to be reimbursed for business expenses he incurs in connection with the performance of his services as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (although he has made no such requests for reimbursement in the past). All other provisions of the Engagement Agreement not expressly amended pursuant to the Engagement Extension Agreement remain the same, including provisions regarding indemnification and arbitration of disputes.

Warrants Issued to One-Year Noteholders

In conjunction with two investments of one-year convertible notes, we issued warrants in July 2017 to purchase an aggregate 400,000 shares to two investors at an exercise price of $0.65 per share. Each of these warrants contained provisions that required a reduction to the exercise price and increase to the number of warrant shares in the event that we sold our common stock at a lower price than the exercise price (subject to some exceptions). During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we adjusted downward the warrant exercise price to $0.13, resulting in an increase of 791,260 warrants available for exercise. The increase in warrants resulted in a fair value totaling $100,000, recorded as a deemed dividend in our consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity. 

Fair Value – Interest Expense

To determine interest expense related to our outstanding warrants issued in conjunction with debt offerings, the fair value of each award grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the relative fair values are amortized over the life of the warrant. For the determination of expense of warrants issued for services, extinguishment of debt and settlement management also uses the option-pricing model. The principal assumptions we used in applying this model were as follows:

	March 31, 2019			March 31, 2020
Risk free interest rate	2.18	–	2.62%		0.23	%
Expected volatility	86	–	110%		112	%

Forfeiture rate		—			—
Expected life in years	2	—	5		2

The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury yields in effect at the time of grant. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of our common stock. The expected life in years is based on the contract term of the warrant.

Note 7. Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses

Accounts payable and accrued expenses included the following (in thousands):

	December 31, 2019		March 31, 2020
Accounts payable and accrued expense	$	346	$	430

Accounts payable and accrued expenses includes ordinary business payables incurred by the Company and its operational subsidiaries.

Note 8. Noncontrolling Interest – Clyra Medical

We consolidate the operations of our partially owned subsidiary Clyra Medical (see Note 2).

Acquisition of In-process Research and Development

On September 26, 2018, Clyra Medical entered into a transaction with Scion Solutions, LLC, for the purchase of its intellectual property, including its SkinDisc. The consideration provided to Scion is subject to an escrow agreement (“Escrow Agreement”) and earn out provisions and includes: (i) 21,000 shares of the Clyra Medical common stock; (ii) 10,000 shares of Clyra Medical common stock redeemable for 7,142,858 BioLargo common shares (detailed below); and (iii) a promissory note in the principal amount of $1,250,000 to be paid through new capital investments and revenue, as detailed below. This consideration was initially held in escrow pending Clyra Medical raising $1 million “base capital” to fund its business operations.

On December 17, 2018, the parties entered into a closing agreement (“Closing Agreement”) reflecting the satisfaction of the obligation to raise $1 million “base capital”; at that time, one-half of the shares of Clyra Medical common stock exchanged for the Scion assets were released to Scion. The remaining Clyra Medical common shares (a total of 15,500 shares) remain subject to the Escrow Agreement’s performance metrics, each vesting one-fifth of the remaining shares of common stock: (a) notification of FDA premarket clearance of certain orthopedics products, or recognition by Clyra Medical of $100,000 gross revenue; (b) the recognition by Clyra Medical of $100,000 in aggregate gross revenue; (c) the granting of all or any part of the patent application for the SkinDisc product, or recognition by Clyra Medical of $500,000 in gross revenue; (d) recognition by Clyra Medical of $1 million in aggregate gross revenue; and (e) recognition by Clyra Medical of $2 million in gross revenue.

Scion Solutions – Note Payable and Clyra Liability

The promissory note in the principal amount of $1,250,000 issued by Clyra Medical to Scion on September 26, 2018 (“Clyra-Scion Note”) accrues interest at the rate of 5%. Principal and interest due under the note are to be paid periodically at a rate of 25% of investment proceeds received by Clyra Medical. If the note is not paid off within 18 months after the date of issuance, it is automatically extended for additional 12-month periods until the note is repaid in full. Payments after the initial 18-month maturity date are required to be made in annual installments in an amount equal to the greater of (i) 25% of investment proceeds received during the 12-month period, and (ii) 5% of Clyra Medical’s gross revenues.

Non-Controlling Interest

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, Clyra raised $25,000 at $310 per Clyra share.

(UNAUDITED)

At March 31, 2020, the balance due on the Clyra-Scion Note equaled $1,007,000. The shares of BioLargo common stock held by Clyra for the benefit of Scion (the redemption shares) totals $643,000 and is recorded on our balance sheet as a liability to “Clyra Medical Shareholder”.

As of March 31, 2020, Clyra Medical had the following common and preferred shares outstanding:

Shareholder	Shares			Percent
BioLargo, Inc.		26,203			36%
Sanatio Capital		15,064			21%
Scion Solutions(1)		15,500			21%
Other		15,979			22%
Total		72,746	(2)

Notes:

(1) Does not include an additional 15,500 shares held in escrow subject to performance metrics.

(2) Does not include options to purchase 9,569 of shares of Clyra stock.

During 2019, Clyra began issuing options to its employees and consultants in lieu of compensation owed. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had issued options to purchase 7,624 shares of Clyra stock. In the three months ended March 31, 2020, Clyra issued options to purchase 1,945 shares of common stock to employees and vendors in exchange for a reduction of $206,000 in payables owed. Each option issued has an exercise price of $1.00 per share, are vested upon issuance and an expiration date 10 years from the date of grant. The fair value of the options issued in the three months ended March 31, 2020, totaled $420,000, and the additional fair value totaling $214,000 was recorded as a loss on extinguishment of debt in our consolidated statement of operations. We used the Black-Scholes model to calculate the initial fair value, assuming a stock price on date of grant of $310 per share. Because Clyra is a private company with no secondary market for its common stock, the resulting fair value was discounted by 30%.

Note 9. BioLargo Engineering, Science and Technologies, LLC

In September 2017, we commenced a full-service environmental engineering firm and formed a Tennessee entity named BioLargo Engineering, Science & Technologies, LLC (“BLEST”). In conjunction with the start of this subsidiary, we entered into a three-year office lease in the Knoxville, Tennessee area, and entered into employment agreements with six scientists and engineers. (See Note 12 “Business Segment Information”.) The company was capitalized with two classes of membership units: Class A, 100% owned by Biolargo, and Class B, held by management of BLEST, and which initially have no “profit interest,” as that term is defined in Tennessee law. However, over the succeeding five years, the Class B members can earn up to a 30% profit interest. They also have been granted options to purchase up to an aggregate 1,750,000 shares of BioLargo, Inc. common stock. The profit interest and option shares are subject to a five year vesting schedule tied to the performance of the subsidiary, including gross revenue targets that increase over time, obtaining positive cash flow by March 31, 2018 (which was not met), collecting 90% of its account receivables, obtaining a profit of 10% in its first year (and increasing in subsequent years), making progress in the scale-up and commercialization of our AOS system, and using BioLargo research scientists (such as our Canadian team) for billable work on client projects. These criteria are to be evaluated annually by BLEST’s compensation committee (which includes BioLargo’s president, CFO, and BLEST’s president), beginning September 2018. Given the significant performance criteria, the Class B units and the stock options will only be recognized in compensation expense if or when the criteria are satisfied.

 Since the commencement of operations, the Compensation Committee has met twice, once in September 2018, and once in November 2019. In 2018, it reviewed the operating performance and determined that the performance metrics were not met and as a result, did not award any Class B units or stock options. The Committee decided to roll forward one additional year to the time allowed for the performance metrics to be met and for the Class B units and stock options to be awarded.

In November 2019, the Compensation Committee again reviewed the operating performance and determined that a portion of the performance metrics were met. It was agreed that one-half of the eligible profits interests would be vested (2.5% in the aggregate). The fair value of the profit interest was nominal and not recorded. Nevertheless, Biolargo treats the 2.5% profits interest as part of the noncontrolling interest on both the balance sheet and the statement of operations.

Note 10. Business Segment Information

BioLargo currently has four operating business segments, plus its corporate entity which is responsible for general corporate operations, including administrative functions, finance, human resources, marketing, legal, etc. The four operational business segments are:

1.	Odor-No-More (“ONM”) -- which is selling odor and volatile organic control products and services (located in Westminster, California);
2.	Clyra Medical (“Clyra”) -- which is engaged in developing medical products and preparing launch into commercial activity featuring its new product Clyraguard;
3.	BLEST -- which provides professional engineering services on a time and materials basis for outside clients and supports our internal operations as needed (located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee);
4.	BioLargo Water (“Water”) -- which historically focused entirely on R&D, and has now shifted its focus to commercializing the AOS technology, developing manufacturing operations for hand sanitizers and supporting the development of iodine based disinfecting products for the company (located in Edmonton, Alberta Canada); and

Historically, none of our operating business units operated at a profit and therefore each required additional cash to meet its monthly expenses. The additional sources of the cash to fund the shortfall from operations of Odor-No-More, BLEST and BioLargo Water have been provided by BioLargo’s sales of debt or equity, research grants, and tax credits. Clyra Medical has been funded by third party investors who invest directly in Clyra Medical in exchange for equity ownership in that entity.

The segment information for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2020, is as follows (in thousands):

Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies

Office Leases

We have long-term operating leases for office, industrial and laboratory space in Westminster, California, Oak Ridge, Tennessee, and Alberta, Canada. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the operating lease agreement. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2020, rental expense was $51,000 and $55,000, respectively.  On January 1, 2019, we adopted ASC 842 which resulted in a right-of-use asset and lease liability. Short-term leases are not included in our analysis. The adoption resulted in an immaterial cumulative effect of an accounting change that was not recorded.  The lease of our Westminster facility qualifies for the new treatment; it originated in August 2016, expires August 2020, contains a yearly escalation of 3%, and includes a four-year renewal option whereby the base rent is adjusted to then market value. We intend to exercise the option to extend the lease for four years. That has been included in the analysis. The lease of our Oak Ridge, Tennessee facility also qualifies, and it had one executed extension to September 2022, and has one renewal option for another five years where the rental rate would adjust to greater of the current price and fair market value. No determination has been made whether to exercise the renewal option for the Oak Ridge facility. The lease of our Canadian facility is less than one year. None of our leases have additional terms related to the payments or mechanics of the lease: there are not any common area maintenance charges or tax sharing arrangements, easement provisions or any free rent. Since there is no explicit interest rate in leases, management used its incremental borrowing rate, which is estimated to be 18%. As of March 31, 2020, our weighted average remaining lease term is four years and the total remaining operating lease payments is $667,000.

Clyra Medical Consulting Agreement

Clyra Medical (see Note 8) entered into a consulting agreement with Beach House Consulting, LLC, through which Jack B. Strommen will be providing consulting services to Clyra related to its sales and marketing activities and in exchange receive $23,000 per month for a period of four years. The agreement originally provided that Clyra’s obligation to pay fees under the agreement begin the month following Clyra reception of FDA pre-market clearance on its first product, which occurred in September 2019. In December 2019, the parties modified the agreement such that fees are incurred once Clyra generates $250,000 in monthly revenue on average for three consecutive months. The total cash obligation related to the agreement would be approximately $1.1 million.

Note 12. Subsequent Events.

Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date of the filing of this Annual Report and management noted the following for disclosure.

Paycheck Protection Program SBA Loans

Our subsidiaries BLEST and Clyra Medical received advances of $93,000 and $43,000, respectively from the Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program. The loans mature in two years and incur interest at 1%. All or a portion of the loans may be forgiven if the companies comply with the terms of forgiveness as set forth by the Small Business Administration.

Investments Received

On May 1, 2020, Biolargo commenced a private offering of units, each unit consisting of (i) common stock, (ii) a four-month stock purchase warrant, and (iii) a five-year stock purchase warrant. Unit prices are set from time-to-time based on market conditions. The number of shares of common stock issued, and the number of shares available for purchase under each warrant, are based on the quotient of the unit price and investment amount (e.g., a $100,000 investment and unit price of $0.25 is equal to 400,000 shares). The four-month warrant exercise price is equal to 120% of the unit price, and the five-year warrant is equal to 150% of the unit price. As of the date of this report, we have received an aggregate $142,000 of investments from two investors at unit prices equal to $0.15, issued 946,667shares of our common stock, and issued warrants to purchase an aggregate 1,893,334 shares.

(“Clyra”), a partially owned subsidiary.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

Recent Events

The COVID-19 pandemic is currently impacting countries, communities, supply chains and markets as well as the global financial markets. Governments have imposed laws requiring social distancing, travel bans and quarantine, and these laws may limit access to our facilities, customers, management, support staff and professional advisors. These factors, in turn, may not only impact our operations, financial condition and demand for our goods and services, but our overall ability to react timely to mitigate the impact of this event. Also, it may hamper our efforts to comply with our filing obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Depending on the severity and longevity of the COVID-19 pandemic, our business, customers, and stockholders may experience a significant negative impact.

Our Business- A Sustainable Products, Technology and Solutions Provider

BioLargo, Inc. is an innovative technology developer and environmental engineering company driven by a mission to “make life better” by delivering robust, sustainable solutions for a broad range of industries and applications, with a focus on clean water, clean air, and advanced wound care. We develop and commercialize disruptive technologies by providing the capital, support, and expertise to expedite them from “cradle” to “maturity”. Our business strategy is straightforward: we invent or acquire technologies that we believe have the potential to be disruptive in large commercial markets; we incubate and develop these technologies to advance them 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. We seek to unlock the value of our portfolio of underlying technologies to both advance our purposeful mission while we create value for our stockholders.

Response to COVID-19 Pandemic

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic through which many states issued “shelter-at-home” orders, we took rapid action to bring forth solutions to assist in the crisis, stabilize operations, protect our staff, and shore up financial resources to continue growing the company. We have achieved the following over the past 6 weeks:

1. Our engineers prepared a low-cost ventilator design in response to a U.S. Department of Defense call for innovation to support a government challenge, which has led to the ongoing collaboration with the University of California Sa Diego and their National Security Innovation Catalyst, and the collaboration/evaluation of CupriDyne with multiple branches of the U.S. military, all made possible through our work with TMA Bluetech, on which our president Dennis Calvert serves as a board member;

24

2. Clyra Medical created, began to manufacture and successfully secured an FDA registration of the “Clyraguard Personal Protection Spray” (www.clyramedical.com/clyraguard);

3. We received confirmation through third-party testing by UTMB-Galveston National Lab that our CupriDyne products inactivate the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) virus;

4. We received confirmation through third-party testing at UTMB-Galveston National Lab that Clyra Medical’s FDA registered products inactivate the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) virus;

5. We organized a small-scale production and sale of hand sanitizers in our Westminster, Oak Ridge, and Canadian facilities;

6. We completed revisions of waterworks fund crowdfunding offering in order to highlight its role in COVID-19 crisis for AOS to remove the virus from wastewater;

7. We negotiated and executed a new financing instrument with Lincoln Park Capital which will provide up to $10,250,000 in new capital should we elect to draw down the facility, any time over the next three years (see “Item 5 “Other Information”); and

8. We completed three applications for Paycheck Protection Program stimulus money, two of which have been accepted, the third pending.

COVID-19 Testing

We sponsored research with one of the leading researchers in the study of pandemic diseases, Dr Slobadan Praessler’s laboratory located at the Galveston National Laboratory at the University of Texas Medical Branch, to confirm that CupriDyne as well as Clyraguard, a product of Clyra Medical, inactivated the Coronavirus that causes COVID-19. The tests were successful. The research concluded that “CupriDyne was shown to be effective in inactivating the virus in a time-dependent manner, reducing virus titers by 99% (2 logs) after 30 minutes, and reducing virus titers to below the detection limit after 60 minutes. The novel iodine complex tested herein offers a safe and gentle alternative to conventional disinfectants for use on indoor and outdoor surfaces.” The actual report can be seen at the following link: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.05.08.082701v1. The CupriDyne abstract states:

“The coronavirus known as SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19 disease, is presently responsible for a global pandemic wherein more than 3.5 million people have been infected and more than 250,000 killed to-date. There is currently no vaccine for COVID-19, leaving governments and public health agencies with little defense against the virus aside from advising or enforcing best practices for virus transmission prevention, which include hand-washing, physical distancing, use of face covers, and use of effective disinfectants. In this study, a novel iodine complex called CupriDyne® was assessed for its ability to inactivate SARS-CoV-2. CupriDyne was shown to be effective in inactivating the virus in a time-dependent manner, reducing virus titers by 99% (2 logs) after 30 minutes, and reducing virus titers to below the detection limit after 60 minutes. The novel iodine complex tested herein offers a safe and gentle alternative to conventional disinfectants for use on indoor and outdoor surfaces.” 

We intend to fully explore any and all alternatives available to develop a new CupriDyne based product to help combat COVID-19 and secure appropriate regulatory approvals. 

The UTMB-Galveston National Laboratory also tested Clyra’s new Clyraguard product, and confirmed that it inactivates the SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) virus. The associated study results and academic paper is expected to publish soon. 

While we are actively engaged in responding the COVID-19 crisis, we have not ceased operations of our previous and long-term operating activities or plans. However, our normal operations and rate of growth been negatively impacted during the crisis, namely with delays by our customers until such time as our customers operations resume some sense of normalcy. For example, our growth in the waste handling industry has reversed course as operators, in light of the COVID-19 crisis, are less concerned about managing odor than during normal times. As such, we believe these commercial operations will resume its growth track after the crisis subsides.

25

Our second commercial operation, BioLargo Engineering, Science & Technologies, LLC (“BLEST”), provides professional engineering and consulting services to third party clients on a fee-for-service basis, and also serves as our in-house engineering team to advance our proprietary technologies and complement service offerings of our other business segments. This operating unit has a number of near- and long-term prospects for substantial growth, all of which have been delayed due to the COVID-19 crisis.

Each incremental success serves to validate our overall business strategy which is focused on technology-based products and services capable of disrupting the status quo in their applicable industry market segment. We believe that the future of our medical and clean water technologies has similar and also very large market opportunities ahead as they are introduced commercially.

In addition to our two commercial operating subsidiaries, we have technologies and products in the development pipeline progressing towards commercialization, including our water treatment system for decontamination and disinfection (our “Advanced Oxidation System”, or “AOS” – see Pilot Projects discussion below), and our medical products focused on Clyraguard (Disinfecting Personal Protection Spray for Personal Protection Equipment, healing chronic wounds, including our stem cell therapy called the SkinDisc^TM, which is focused on regenerative tissue management and is licensed to our subsidiary Clyra Medical Technologies, Inc. (“Clyra Medical”). Clyra Medical is launching its Clyraguard (www.clyramedical.com/clyraguard ) product now, and given its unique value proposition as a disinfectant for personal protection equipment like facemasks, which is a safe and gentle solution (safe on skin) to help protect people from cross contamination and its proven effectiveness at inactivating the SARS-CoV-2 virus, and the fact that it FDA cleared and registered, we expect Clyraguard to experience rapid revenue growth.

Odor-No-More Industrial Odor and VOC Solutions

Our CupriDyne Clean industrial products reduce and eliminate tough odors and VOC’s in various industrial settings, delivered through misting systems, sprayers, water trucks and similar water delivery systems. We believe the product is the number one performing odor-control product in the market, and offers substantial savings to our customers compared with competing products.

Our customer base for our odor and VOC business was expanding prior to the COVID-19 crisis and we expect it to continue doing so once the world returns back to work. We have been and expect to continue selling product to three of the largest solid waste handling companies in the country, and also have secured multiple flagship clients in the wastewater treatment industry, which we expect to become a priority market. We are also expanding with early adopters into new industrial markets, including steel manufacturing, paper production, construction, building and facilities management, livestock production, the cannabis industry. Opportunities for our products are available internationally. We have in the past and plan to continue marketing these products through industry associations like the “Technology Approval Group” program offered by Isle Utilities that serves the wastewater treatment industry. We also have a number of potential partners actively engaged in commercial trials around the globe and we are actively in discussion with a number of groups to leverage our commercial focus through distribution partnerships.

Many of our customers have adopted CupriDyne Clean as a replacement for a non-performing and competitive products, some of which have been in use by customers for as many as 30 years. Upon using CupriDyne Clean, the majority of customers have expressed a very high degree of satisfaction with its performance compared to prior solutions. Because of this, we were realizing systematic adoption by our very large corporate customers and expect to resume the adoption cycle post crisis, to serve these customers for years to come. Our experience has helped refine our value proposition and assemble a comprehensive menu of products and services. Our success in this market has validated the market opportunity for our products and services and encourages us to continue investing in infrastructure and sales and marketing to increase revenues. We estimate there are approximately 2,000 active landfills¹, 8,000 transfer stations², and 15,000 wastewater treatment agencies³ in the United States. While all may not have ongoing odor problems or neighbor complaints, we believe many of the facilities have need for a disruptive odor solution like CupriDyne Clean.

The total addressable market for the waste handling and wastewater treatment industries is greater than $1.3 billion. While we are still assessing the size of the cannabis, agriculture and steel manufacturing industries, we believe they could readily double the market opportunities for our product CupriDyne Clean.

Turn-key Full-service Solutions

At the request of our clients, we have begun offering a menu of services to landfills, transfer stations, and wastewater treatment facilities. These services include ongoing maintenance and on-site support services to assist our clients in the design and continued use of the various systems that deliver our liquid products in the field (such as misting systems). We have recently expanded these serves to engineering design, construction and installation. Our engineering team at BLEST has been instrumental in supporting these operations. During late 2019 we were awarded and completed more than 15 projects.

South Korean Joint Venture

On February 12, 2020, we executed a “Joint Venture Framework Agreement” with a leading wastewater treatment solution provider based in South Korea (BKT Co. Ltd., “BKT”), to create a South Korean entity that would manufacture odor and VOC control products based on our CupriDyne Clean products. We received a $350,000 investment from BKT and issued 1,593,087 shares of our common stock, and invested $100,000 into the joint venture for a 40% ownership share. BKT and its U.S. based subsidiary invested $150,000 into the joint venture for the remaining 60% ownership share. The joint venture has established their manufacturing, and we expect will be proceeding with operations in the near future.

Full Service Environmental Engineering

In September 2017, we formed a subsidiary (BioLargo Engineering, Science & Technologies, LLC, or “BLEST”), for the purpose of offering full service environmental engineering to third parties, and to provide engineering support services to our internal teams to accelerate the commercialization of our AOS technologies. Its website is found at www.BioLargoEngineering.com.

BLEST focuses its efforts in three areas:

● Providing engineering services to third party clients;

● Supporting the internal product development (e.g., the AOS and AEC water treatment systems); and 

● Supporting our team at Odor-No-More to provide engineering and design of the CupriDyne Clean delivery systems.

The subsidiary is located in Oak Ridge (a suburb of Knoxville, Tennessee), and employs seven scientists and engineers who collectively have over two hundred years of experience in diverse engineering fields. The team is led by Randall Moore, who served as Manager of Operations for Consulting and Engineering for the Knoxville office of CB&I Environmental & Infrastructure and was formerly a leader at The Shaw Group, Inc., a Fortune 500 global engineering firm. The other team members are also former employees of CB&I and Shaw. The team is highly experienced across multiple industries and they are considered experts in their respective fields, including chemical engineering, wastewater treatment (including design, operations, data gathering and data evaluation), process safety, energy efficiency, air pollution, design and control, technology evaluation, technology integration, air quality management & testing, engineering management, permitting, industrial hygiene, applied research and development, air testing, environmental permitting, HAZOP review, chemical processing, thermal design, computational fluid dynamics, mechanical engineering, mechanical design, NEPDES permitting, RCRA/TSCA compliance and permitting,  project management, storm water design & permitting, computer assisted design (CAD), bench chemistry, continuous emission monitoring system operator, data handling and evaluation and decommissioning and decontamination of radiological and chemical contaminated facilities.

Development of AEC to Combat PFAS Crisis

In 2019, BLEST was awarded an SBIR Phase I Competitive Grant by the Environmental Protection Agency in the amount of $100,000 to investigate solutions for the removal of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from water. PFAS have been linked to cancer, fertility problems, asthma, and more, and are present in a vast range of manufactured goods including food, common household products (e.g., cleaning products, cookware), and electronics. PFAS also pose widespread and serious water safety problems around the world, with governments and industry actively seeking new technologies and processes to eliminate PFAS from groundwater and drinking water. BLEST had applied for Phase II funding from the EPA to sponsor a go-to-market strategy for its AEC and was notified on May 18, 2020, that its request for funding was not granted. While management is disappointed by this news, at the same time it is not deterred from pursuing what it believes will be a substantial business opportunity. The scale-up work on the AEC continues with our own resources, and we expect to be ready for commercial trails in the near future.

BioLargo Water and the Advanced Oxidation System – AOS

BioLargo Water is our wholly owned subsidiary located on campus at the University of Alberta, Canada, that has been primarily engaged in the research and development of our Advanced Oxidation System (AOS).  The AOS is our patented water treatment device that generates a series of highly oxidative species of iodine and other molecules that, because of its proprietary configuration and inner constituents, allow it to eliminate pathogenic organisms and organic contaminants as water passes through the device and it performs with extreme efficacy while consuming very little electricity. Its key application is extremely efficient decontamination and the disinfection of various waste waters. The AOS recently began its first pre-commercial pilot project, wherein an AOS and treatment train has been installed on-site at Sunworks Farm, a poultry farm in Alberta. This pilot project is discussed in more detail in the Pre-commercial Pilot Projects section below.

The key value proposition of the AOS is its ability to eliminate a wide variety of contaminants with high performance while consuming extremely low levels of input electricity and extremely low levels of chemistry inputs – a trait made possible by the complex set of highly oxidative iodine compounds generated within the AOS reactor. Our proof-of-concept studies and case studies have generated results that project the AOS will be more cost- and energy-efficient than commonly used advanced water treatment technologies such as UV, electro-chlorination, and ozonation. This value proposition sets the AOS technology above other water treatment options, as we believe the AOS may allow safe and reliable water treatment for significantly lower cost compared to its competitors and may even enable advanced water treatment in applications where it otherwise would have been prohibitively costly.

The AOS has the potential to allow reliable and cost-effective water treatment in numerous industries and applications where high-level disinfection or elimination of hard-to-treat organic contaminants is required. We believe the total serviceable market for our AOS is $10.75 billion for the poultry processing, food & beverage, and storm water segments with a target beachhead market for poultry processing in North America at an estimated $240 million.

28

Our AOS was the result of breakthroughs in both advanced iodine electrochemistry and advances in materials engineering, and its invention led to BioLargo’s co-founding of a multi-year industrial research chair whose goal was to solve the contaminated water issues associated with the Canadian Oil Sands at the University of Alberta Department of Engineering in conjunction with the top five oil companies in Canada, the regional water district, and various environmental agencies of the Canadian government. Based on recovering oil prices and our ongoing work in Canada, we recently reinitiated discussions with a number of stakeholders in the oil sands industry to support the completion of AOS development for oil and gas water treatment and to discuss the initiation of pre-commercial and commercial pilots for our AOS to help treat and remediate oil sands process-affected water (“OSPW”) found in tailings ponds in the Canadian oil sands, an application that currently has no good economically viable solution. We continue to apply for significant grant funding to re-initiate our work to help treat OSPW and other oil and gas wastewaters using the AOS. We believe that this opportunity requires substantial grant support to be viable for our company and, therefore we will continue to focus on energies on other markets until such time as resources are available.

Our AOS is an award-winning invention that is supported by science and engineering financial support and highly competitive grants (66 and counting) from various federal and provincial funding agencies in Canada such as NSERC, NRC- IRAP, and Alberta Innovates and in the United States by the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California and National Water Research Institute.

Our immediate goals for the development and commercialization of the AOS are: 1) to secure direct investment into the BioLargo Water subsidiary to empower its staff to complete its development cycle, 2) complete the ongoing pre-commercial field pilot studies which are necessary to generate the techno-economic data required to secure commercial trials, entice future customers, and commence traversal of necessary regulatory pathways, 3) conduct the first commercial trials with the AOS, and 4) secure first sale of the AOS. It is our belief that once pre-commercial pilots have concluded with the AOS, our ability to entice major water industry players to partner with BioLargo Water to accelerate market adoption of the AOS will be increased dramatically.

Recent AOS Milestones

The most important advances in AOS development in recent months have been 1) recent validation of the AOS as an effective tool to eliminate hard-to-treat “micropollutants” from wastewater; 2) design and engineering advances and changes to the AOS in preparation for piloting and scale-up for industrial flow-rates and conditions; and 3) the planning and design of pre-commercial field pilot projects.

One recent and important AOS milestone was the demonstration that it eliminated or reduced the toxicity of certain high-concern pharmaceutical byproducts (micropollutants) common in some municipal wastewater (“MWW”) streams. Currently, there are no economically viable solutions to remove these compounds from MWW, and incumbent technologies fall short. We believe that the value proposition for our AOS for use as a tool for the municipal water treatment industry to efficiently remove micropollutants could increase our total serviceable market to 5% or more of the total industry which is recognized at + $700 billion globally or approximately $35 billion.

Several advances and improvements to the AOS have also been made in recent months with the purpose of preparing the technology for pre-commercial piloting, commercial piloting, and subsequent mass production, as well as to prepare it for scale-up to allow industrial flow rates. These advancements have largely been proprietary physical improvements to the AOS, including the transitioning of the AOS to using inner substrates more amenable to mass-production and greater flow rates and pressures. Management believes it will continue to advance the scale-up to higher volume throughputs of water flow and enhances the AOS ability to be more compact and longer lasting in the field.  This work is not complete, but management believes it does represent a significant step forward to achieving high throughput quality results. Importantly, we have also designed and begun assembling our own proprietary water treatment train that will be used in pilots for the AOS and that will pave the way for complete wastewater treatment in industrial settings.

We believe that our current designs for the AOS are cost-effective, commercially viable and should be ready for their first commercial launch in late 2020. We secured a patent on the AOS in 2018, and another in March 2019. We intend to continue refining and improving the AOS continually to accomplish a series of goals: expanded patent coverage, extended useful life, lower capital costs, lower energy costs, optimized performance, precise configurations for specific industry challenges, portability, and identifying its performance limits. Our current and most pressing goal for the AOS, as evidenced by the pilot projects described above, is to demonstrate its efficacy in field settings, which is a crucial and necessary step for the commercialization of any water treatment system.

Clyra Medical Technologies

We initially formed Clyra Medical to commercialize our technology in the medical products industry, which we believe can be disruptive to many competing product lines.

When the COVID-19 crisis began, we immediately responded by supporting the team at Clyra Medical in any way possible to help them create a product called Clyraguard (discussion above). Testing has confirmed that Clyraguard inactivates the COVID-19 pandemic Coronavirus. Clyraguard features a host of unique claims:

● Extremely high antimicrobial efficacy (99.999%) against virus, bacteria and fungus, including Coronavirus

● long lasting

● Non-irritating, non- sensitizing, non-toxic

● Clear, colorless, and odorless

● Can be applied to mask and other personal protective equipment as needed and reapplied throughout the day

● Derived from a formula specifically developed for use in hospitals by healthcare professionals.

● Registered with FDA as a Class I disinfectant.

The early development work at Clyra and its long regulatory approval process was pivotal to enable Clyra to respond to the COVID-19 crisis.

Results of Operations

We operate our business in distinct business segments:

● Odor-No-More, which manufactures and sells our odor and VOC control products and services, including our flagship product, CupriDyne Clean;

● BLEST, our professional engineering services division supporting our internal business units and serving outside clients on a fee for service basis;

● BioLargo Water, our Canadian division that has been historically pure research and development, and is now transitioning to focus on commercializing our AOS system;

● Clyra Medical, our partially owned subsidiary focused on the Advanced Wound Care industry; and

● Our corporate operations, which support the operating segments with legal, accounting, human resources, and other services.

Consolidated revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $439,000, which is a $75,000 increase over the same period in 2019 and a $98,000 decrease as compared with the three months ended December 31, 2019. The quarter-to-quarter decrease is directly related to the COVID-19 pandemic. We generated revenue from two of our operating divisions – Odor-No-More and BLEST. Our business segments obtain cash to support operations in different ways. Odor-No-More and BLEST generate revenues from third parties, and receive funding as needed from BioLargo, Inc. Our Canadian team, BioLargo Water, receives funds from government research grants (reported on our financial statements as “Other income – Grant income”), and receives funding as needed from BioLargo, Inc. Clyra Medical, however, relies on direct investment from third parties for 100% of its operating costs and is not supported with capital from BioLargo’s corporate budget or fundraising.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, each of the four operating segments developed products to help the world deal with the crisis. (See “Response to COVID-19 Pandemic”, above.) Our results of operations discussed below do not include revenues from those products, as they were all released subsequent to March 31, 2020.

Odor-No-More

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, our wholly owned subsidiary Odor-No-More generated revenues through sales of its flagship product CupriDyne Clean, by providing design, installation, and maintenance services on the systems that deliver CupriDyne Clean at its clients’ facilities, and through sales of odor absorption products to the U.S. Government. Of its gross sales, in the three months ended March 31, 2020, approximately 75% were to the waste handling industry.

Revenue (Odor-No-More)

Odor-No-More’s revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2020, decreased $18,000 or 6% from the same period in 2019, and decreased $164,000 or 37% from the prior three months ended December 31, 2019. Approximately 99% of revenue is from sales of CupriDyne Clean products, and the remaining from sales of our absorption products to the U.S. military. The decrease in revenue was directly attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic and state governments ordering non-essential businesses to close and residents to “stay-at-home”. (See “Response to Covid-19 Pandemic”, above.)

Sales of our CupriDyne Clean products increased 20% in the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to same period in 2019, due to the acquisition of more clients and client locations, and the sale and delivery of more products. Of our CupriDyne Clean sales, approximately one-half were made pursuant to “national purchasing agreements” (“NPA”) with the three largest waste handling companies in the United States. Given the COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing status of the “stay-at-home” orders in California and elsewhere, we expect sales of CupriDyne Clean products to the waste handling industry to continue to decrease in the second quarter of 2020.

As a result of our decision to focus our efforts on higher-margin products, sales of our Specimen Transport Solidifier pouches decreased by 97% in the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared with the same period in 2019.

31

Cost of Goods Sold (Odor-No-More)

Odor-No-More’s cost of goods sold includes costs of raw materials, contract manufacturing, and portions of salaries and expenses related to the manufacturing of our products. As a percentage of revenue, Odor-No-More’s costs of goods was 45% in the three months ended March 31, 2020 versus 47% in the same period in 2019.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense (Odor-No-More)

Odor-No-More’s selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 28% to $316,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared with $247,000 in 2019. These expenses have increased alongside Odor-No-More’s efforts to increase revenues by hiring additional sales and support staff. We do not expect these expenses to increase further unless and until our revenues increase.

Net Loss (Odor-No-More)

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, Odor-No-More generated $298,000 in revenue, a gross margin of $154,000, and had total costs and expenses of $320,000, resulting in a net loss of $158,000.

BLEST (engineering division)

Revenue (BLEST)

Our engineering segment (BLEST) generated $141,000 of revenues from third party clients in the three months ended March 31, 2020, versus $63,000 in revenue in comparable period in 2019. The increase is due to an increase in the number of client contracts being serviced. BLEST revenues reported on our consolidated statement of operations do not include work performed on internal BioLargo projects, such as its further engineering and development of the AOS water filtration system, or development of the AEC to combat the PFAS crisis (see Development of AEC to Combat PFAS Crisis), which if billed to third party clients exceeded $143,000 in the first quarter. Our engineers are performing a critical role in internal projects, some of which are supported by third-party research grants and has been instrumental in developing and supporting a professional engineered design service for misting systems being sold by our Odor-No-More operating unit.

Cost of Goods (Services) Sold (BLEST)

BLEST’s cost of services includes employee labor as well as subcontracted labor costs. In the three months ended March 31, 2020, its cost of services were 46% of its revenues, versus 27% in the three months ended March 31, 2019. We expect the cost of services to remain closer to 50% in the reminder of the year ending December 31, 2020, based on our current client activity.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense (BLEST)

BLEST’S SG&A expenses include expense related to its operations, although because it primarily delivers services to its clients, most of its labor costs are included in its cost of services (for third party clients), and research and development for its work on BioLargo technologies. BLEST selling, general and administrative expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2020 totaled $101,000 compared to $106,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Net Loss (BLEST)

BLEST generated $285,000 in revenue, a gross margin of $153,000, and had total costs and expenses of $195,000, resulting in a net loss of $41,000.

While we are unable to record revenues generated from intracompany services by the engineering group to other operating divisions, it is important to note that the net loss would be eliminated if BLEST were an outside contract for hire services company selling services to our water company or our industrial odor and VOC control operating unit.

Because the subsidiary had a net loss, we invested cash during the year to allow it to maintain operations. BLEST’s need for a cash subsidy to support its operations decreased considerably towards the end of calendar year 2019. We expect this trend to continue, and expect that in 2020 its sales will continue to increase.

Other Income

Our wholly owned Canadian subsidiary has been awarded more than 75 research grants over the years from various Canadian public and private agencies, including the Canadian National Research Institute – Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC-IRAP), the National Science and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), and the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California’s Innovative Conservation Program “ICP”. The research grants received are considered reimbursement grants related to costs we incur and therefore are included as Other Income. We continued to win grants and it is important to note that amounts paid directly to third parties are not included as income in our financial statements. 

32

Although we are continuing to apply for government and industry grants, and indications from the various grant agencies is highly encouraging, we cannot be certain of continuing those successes in the future.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense – consolidated

Our SG&A expenses include both cash expenses (for example, salaries to employees) and non-cash expenses (for example, stock option compensation expense). Our SG&A expenses increased by 10% ($138,000) in the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. Our non-cash expenses totaled $922,000, through the issuance of stock and stock options, increased $339,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. Our employees, vendors and consultants chose to receive a greater number of stock and stock options in lieu of cash owed and as part of an employee retention program. The largest components of our SG&A expenses included (in thousands):

	March 31, 2019		March 31, 2020
Salaries and payroll related	$	494	$	548
Professional fees		196		228
Consulting		291		289
Office expense		240		283

The increase in salaries and payroll expenses is primarily related to the implementation of a stock option bonus compensation program for employees and other related stock option compensation expenses, and also the hiring of additional personnel to support increasing operations. Consulting expense decreased as we’ve engaged less consultants to identify business opportunities and are focusing on our current opportunities.

Research and Development

In the three months ended March 31, 2020, we spent approximately $335,000 in the research and development of our technologies and products. This was a decrease of 21% ($91,000) compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Interest expense 

Our interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $757,000, an decrease of $228,000 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2019, of which $25,000 was paid in cash, and $668,000 is related to the amortization of discount on convertible notes, and the remaining to other non-cash expense. During 2019, it was necessary to extend the maturity dates of some of our outstanding convertible notes, which resulted in additional interest expense.  As most of these convertible notes have now been fully paid, the discount on our convertible notes is less resulting in less interest expense in the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019.

Loss on extinguishment of debt

In the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt related to transactions with current vendor and employees where Clyra Medical is unable to pay obligations in cash. In lieu of cash, the vendors and employees accepted options to purchase shares of Clyra stock. The fair value of those options exceeded the debt that was converted by $214,000.

In the three months ended March 31, 2019, we recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt related to transactions with prior investors to extend the maturity dates of promissory notes. As consideration, we increased principal amounts, modified conversion terms, and/or issued stock purchase warrants. We had no such activities in the comparable period in 2020. We extended the maturity dates of the promissory notes due to a lack of sufficient cash to satisfy the obligations at maturity. Unless our cash position changes substantially, we anticipate we will continue to do so as additional notes come due.

Net Loss

Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $2,616,000 a loss of $0.01 per share, compared to a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2019 of $2,749,000 a loss of $0.02 per share. The reduction in the net loss for the period ended March 31, 2020 versus 2019 is due to a small improvement in gross profit and a reduction in interest expense. 

33

The net loss per business segment is as follows (in thousands):

Net loss	March 31, 2019			March 31, 2020
Odor-No-More	$	(90	)	$	(153	)
BLEST		(110	)		(43	)
Clyra Medical		(299	)		(535	)
BioLargo Water		(145	)		(171	)
Corporate		(2,105	)		(1,715	)
Consolidated net loss	$	(2,749	)	$	(2,616	)

Liquidity and Capital Resources

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 three months ended March 31, 2020, we had a net loss of $2,616,000, used $753,000 cash in operations, and at March 31, 2020, we had a working capital deficit of $3,651,000, and current assets of $1,080,000. We do not believe net revenues will be sufficient to fund our current level of operations or pay our debt due prior to December 31, 2020, and will have to obtain further investment capital to continue to fund operations and seek to refinance our existing debt. We have been, and anticipate that we will continue to be, limited in terms of our capital resources. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we generated revenues of $439,000 through two business segments (Odor-No-More and BLEST – see Note 10, “Business Segment Information”). Neither generated enough revenues to fund their operations, or fund our corporation operations or other business segments, and thus to continue to operate, we conducted private securities offerings. We intend to refinance or renegotiate the $550,000 in debt obligations due in August 2020; the remainder of debt due in 2020 is convertible at maturity. Our cash position is insufficient to maintain our current level of operations and research and development, and thus we will be required to raise substantial additional capital to continue to fund our operations in calendar year 2020, as well as our future business plans. We continue to raise money through private securities offerings and our LPC Purchase Agreement (see Note 3), and continue to negotiate for more financing from private and institutional investors. No assurance can be made of our success at raising money through private or public offerings.

Clyra Medical is unique in that it funds its operations through third party investments. We do not intend to subsidize its operations in the future.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources are based on our 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, valuation of offerings of debt with equity or derivative features which include the valuation of the warrant component, any beneficial conversion feature and potential derivative treatment, and share-based payments. We base our estimates on anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results that differ from our estimates could have a significant adverse effect on our operating results and financial position. We believe that the following significant accounting policies and assumptions may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity than others.

The methods, estimates and judgments the Company uses in applying these most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results of the Company reports in its financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

We adopted ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, Topic 606, on January 1, 2018. The guidance focuses on the core principle for revenue recognition. 

34

The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, an entity should apply the following steps:

Step 1:  Identify the contract(s) with a customer.

Step 2:  Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

Step 3:  Determine the transaction price.

Step 4:  Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

Step 5:  Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

We have revenue from two subsidiaries, Odor-No-More and BLEST. Odor-No-More identifies its contract with the customer through a written purchase order, in which the details of the contract are defined including the transaction price and method of shipment. The only performance obligation is to create and ship the product and each product has separate pricing. Odor-No-More recognizes revenue at a point in time when the order for its goods are shipped if its agreement with the customer is FOB Odor-No-More’s warehouse facility, and when goods are delivered to its customer if its agreement with the customer is FOB destination. Revenue is recognized with a reduction for sales discounts, as appropriate and negotiated in the customer’s purchase order. Odor-No-More also installs misting systems for which it bills on a time and materials basis. It identifies its contract with the customer through a written purchase order in which the details of the time to be billed and materials purchased and an estimated completion date. The performance obligation is the completion of the installation. Revenue is recognized in arrears as the work is performed.

BLEST identifies services to be performed in a written contract, which specifies the performance obligations and the rate at which the services will be billed. Each service is separately negotiated and priced. Revenue is recognized as services are performed and completed. BLEST’s contracts typically call for invoicing for time and materials incurred for that contract. A few contracts have called for milestone or fixed cost payments where BLEST bills an agreed to amount per month for the life of the contract. In these instances, completed work, billed hourly, is recognized as revenue. If the billing amount is greater or lesser than the completed work, a receivable or payable is created. These accounts are adjusted upon additional billings as the work is completed. To date, there have been no discounts or other financing terms for the contracts. 

In the future, we may generate revenues from royalties or license fees from our intellectual property. In the event we do so, we anticipate a licensee would pay a license fee in one or more installments and ongoing royalties based on their sales of products incorporating or using our licensed intellectual property. Upon entering into a licensing agreement, we will determine the appropriate method of recognizing the royalty and license fees.

Warrants and Conversion Features

Warrants issued with our convertible and non-convertible debt instruments are accounted for under the fair value and relative fair value method.

The warrant is first analyzed per its terms as to whether it has derivative features or not. If the warrant is determined to be a derivative and not qualify for equity treatment, then it is measured at fair value using the Black Scholes option model, and recorded as a liability on the balance sheet. The warrant is re-measured at its then current fair value at each subsequent reporting date (it is “marked-to-market”).

If the warrant is determined to not have derivative features, it is recorded into equity at its fair value using the Black Scholes option model, however, limited to a relative fair value based upon the percentage of its fair value to the total fair value including the fair value of the convertible note.

Convertible debt instruments are  recorded at fair value, limited to a relative fair value based upon the percentage of its fair value to the total fair value including the fair value of the warrant. Further, the convertible debt instrument is examined for any intrinsic beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) of which the conversion price is less than the closing common stock price on date of issuance. If the relative fair value method is used to value the convertible debt instrument and there is an intrinsic BCF, a further analysis is undertaken of the BCF using an effective conversion price which assumes the conversion price is the relative fair value divided by the number of shares the convertible debt is converted into by its terms. The BCF value is accounted for as equity.

The warrant and BCF relative fair values are also recorded as a discount to the convertible promissory notes. At present, these equity features of the convertible promissory notes have recorded a discount to the convertible notes that is substantially equal to the proceeds received.

Share-based Payments

It is the Company’s policy to expense share-based payments as of the date of grant or over the term of the vesting period in accordance with Auditing Standards Codification Topic 718 “Share-Based Payment.” Application of this pronouncement requires significant judgment regarding the assumptions used in the selected option pricing model, including stock price volatility and employee exercise behavior. Most of these inputs are either highly dependent on the current economic environment at the date of grant or forward-looking expectations projected over the expected term of the award.

35

 Fair Value Measurement

Generally accepted accounting principles establishes a hierarchy to prioritize the inputs of valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest ranking to the fair values determined by using unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1) and the lowest ranking to fair values determined using methodologies and models with unobservable inputs (Level 3). Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the assets based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The Company has determined the appropriate level of the hierarchy and applied it to its financial assets and liabilities.

Management believes the carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments as of December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2019 approximate their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Such instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid assets, accounts payable, convertible notes, and other assets and liabilities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Recent Accounting Pronouncements”, for the applicable accounting pronouncements affecting the Company.

Item 4.          Controls and Procedures

We conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Report.

Our procedures have been designed to ensure that the information relating to our company, including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However, our Company is continuing to grow and evolve in 2018, as we have added a new accounting manager for Odor-No-More and the engineering division and implemented more detailed reviews of the accounting records. In late 2017, we added an engineering division operating in Tennessee. The volume of our product sales continues to grow, increasing strain on our accounting systems. And, our operations do not yet generate enough cash to fund operations, and thus we rely on financing activities to maintain our level of operations and fund our anticipated growth. These activities put stress on our overall controls and procedures. Although we have made some improvements, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of the evaluation date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to the material weakness identified below.

It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

36

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, we have established internal control procedures in accordance with the guidelines established in the 2013 Framework —Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Recognizing the dynamic nature and growth of the Company’s business during the prior 12 months, including the addition of an engineering division, growth of the core operations, and the increase in the number of employees, management has recognized the strain on the overall internal control environment. As a result, management has concluded that its internal controls over financial reporting are not effective. Management identified a material weakness with respect to deficiencies in its financial closing and reporting procedures. Management believes this is due to a lack of resources. Management intends to add accounting personnel and operating staff and more sophisticated systems in order to improve its reporting procedures and internal controls, subject to available capital. A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. There was no further change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three-month period covered by this Report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting, or any system we design or implement in the future, will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 2.          Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

The following is a report of the sales of unregistered securities during the period covered by this report not previously reported in an annual report on Form 10-K, a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or a Current Report on Form 8-K.

All of these offerings and sales were made in reliance on the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Exchange Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder as not involving a public offering of securities.

Item 5.          Other Information

On March 30, 2020, we entered into a purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (“Lincoln Park”), pursuant to which the Company has the right to sell to Lincoln Park up to $10,250,000 in shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.00067 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), over the 36 month term of the Purchase Agreement, subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

Concurrently with the execution of the Purchase Agreement on March 30, 2020, we entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with Lincoln Park pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other things, to file a registration statement with the SEC to register for sale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), the shares of common stock that may be issued and sold to Lincoln Park from time to time under the Purchase Agreement. We filed a registration statement on Form S-1 with the SEC, which was deemed effective on April 21, 2020.

Lincoln Park agreed to make an initial purchase of $250,000 of shares for $0.14 per share. That purchase was completed March 31, 2020.

The Purchase Agreement provides that, commencing on the date that a registration statement is declared effective by the SEC and a final prospectus in connection therewith is filed and the other terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement are satisfied from time to time on any trading day the Company selects, the Company has the right, in its sole discretion, subject to the conditions and limitations in the Purchase Agreement, to direct Lincoln Park to purchase up to 100,000 shares of Common Stock (each such purchase, a “Regular Purchase”) over the 36-month term of the Purchase Agreement, provided that at least one trading day has passed since the last Regular Purchase. The purchase price of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Purchase Agreement will be based on the prevailing market price at the time of sale as set forth in the Purchase Agreement. There are no trading volume requirements or restrictions under the Purchase Agreement. Lincoln Park’s obligation under each Regular Purchase shall not exceed $500,000. There is no upper limit on the price per share that Lincoln Park must pay for Common Stock under the Purchase Agreement.

In addition to regular purchases, as described above, the Company may also direct Lincoln Park to purchase additional amounts as accelerated purchases. In all instances, the Company may not sell shares of its Common Stock to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement if it would result in Lincoln Park beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the Common Stock.

Lincoln Park represented to the Company, among other things, that it was an “accredited investor” (as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended), and the Company sold the securities in reliance upon exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws.

The Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement contain customary representations, warranties, agreements and conditions to completing future sale transactions, indemnification rights and obligations of the parties. The Company has the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement at any time, at no cost or penalty. During any “event of default” under the Purchase Agreement, all of which are outside of Lincoln Park’s control, Lincoln Park does not have the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement; however, the Company may not initiate any regular or other purchase of shares by Lincoln Park, until such event of default is cured. There are no restrictions on future financings, rights of first refusal, participation rights, penalties or liquidated damages in the Purchase Agreement or Registration Rights Agreement, other than a prohibition on entering into any “Variable Rate Transaction,” as defined in the Purchase Agreement.

Actual sales of shares of Common Stock to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Company from time to time, including, among others, market conditions, the trading price of the Common Stock and determinations by the Company as to the appropriate sources of funding for the Company and its operations. As set forth in the Purchase Agreement, in consideration for entering in the Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to issue to Lincoln Park 1,785,715 shares of Common Stock. The Company will not receive any cash proceeds from the issuance of these shares.

The net proceeds under the Purchase Agreement to the Company will depend on the frequency and prices at which the Company sells shares of its stock to Lincoln Park. The Company expects that any proceeds received by the Company from such sales to Lincoln Park will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Business and Organization

Description of Business

BioLargo, Inc. is an innovative technology developer and environmental engineering company driven by a mission to "make life better" by delivering robust, sustainable solutions for a broad range of industries and applications, with a focus on clean water, clean air. The company also owns a minority interest in an advanced wound care subsidiary that has licensed BioLargo Technologies and it plans to spin out or sell when the appropriate opportunity is identified.  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

three

months ended

March 31, 2020,

we had a net loss of

$2,616,000,

used

$753,000

cash in operations, and at

March 31, 2020,

we had a working capital deficit of

$3,651,000,

and current assets of

$1,080,000.

We do

not

believe gross profits in the immediate future will be sufficient to fund our current level of operations or pay the

$550,000

in debt due

August, 2020

which is convertible at the option of the debt-holder. We have been, and anticipate that we will continue to be, limited in terms of our capital resources. During the

three

months ended

March 31, 2020,

we generated revenues of

$439,000

through

two

 business segments (Odor-

No

-More and BLEST – see Note

10,

“Business Segment Information”). Neither generated enough revenues to fund their operations, or fund our corporate operations, overhead or other business segments, and thus, in light of our cash position at

December 31, 2019,

in order to continue operations, during the quarter we conducted private securities offerings and sold common stock to Lincoln Park (see Note

3

). With respect to the debt due

August 2020,

we intend to pay the debt through proceeds from our various financing resources, convert the remaining balance to equity, or renegotiate the terms; the remainder of debt due in

2020

is convertible at our option at maturity.

On

March 30, 2020,

we entered into a new

three

-year agreement with Lincoln Park (see Note

3

), which allows us to sell to Lincoln Park up to

100,000

shares of our common stock per day, up to a maximum of

$10,250,000.

We intend to continue to sell stock to Lincoln Park to provide working capital as needed. We also intend to raise money through private securities offerings. And, we continue to negotiate for more financing from private investors. Other than sales of stock to Lincoln Park,

no

assurance can be made of our success at raising money through private or public offerings.

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

four

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;

and BioLargo Development Corp., organized under the laws of the State of California in

2016.

Additionally, we own

97.5%

(see Note

10

) of BioLargo Engineering Science and Technologies, LLC, organized under the laws of the State of Tennessee in

2017

(“BLEST”). We also own

36%

of Clyra Medical Technologies, Inc. (“Clyra Medical”), organized under the laws of the State of California in

2012,

and consolidate their financial statements (see Note

2,

subheading “Principles of Consolidation,” and Note

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

three

months ended

March 31, 2020

are

not

necessarily indicative of the results that

may

be expected for the year ending

December 

31,

 

2020,

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

Business Segment Information

BioLargo currently has

four

operating business segments, plus its corporate entity which is responsible for general corporate operations, including administrative functions, finance, human resources, marketing, legal, etc. The

four

operational business segments are:

1.	Odor- No -More (“ONM”) -- which is selling odor and volatile organic control products and services (located in Westminster, California);
2.	Clyra Medical (“Clyra”) -- which is engaged in developing medical products and preparing launch into commercial activity featuring its new product Clyraguard;
3.	BLEST -- which provides professional engineering services on a time and materials basis for outside clients and supports our internal operations as needed (located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee);
4.	BioLargo Water (“Water”) -- which historically focused entirely on R&D, and has now shifted its focus to commercializing the AOS technology, developing manufacturing operations for hand sanitizers and supporting the development of iodine based disinfecting products for the company (located in Edmonton, Alberta Canada); and

Historically,

none

of our operating business units operated at a profit and therefore each required additional cash to meet its monthly expenses. The additional sources of the cash to fund the shortfall from operations of Odor-

No

-More, BLEST and BioLargo Water have been provided by BioLargo’s sales of debt or equity, research grants, and tax credits. Clyra Medical has been funded by

third

party investors who invest directly in Clyra Medical in exchange for equity ownership in that entity.

Warrants Issued to One-Year Noteholders

In conjunction with

two

investments of

one

-year convertible notes, we issued warrants in

July 2017

to purchase an aggregate

400,000

shares to

two

investors at an exercise price of

$0.65

per share. Each of these warrants contained provisions that required a reduction to the exercise price and increase to the number of warrant shares in the event that we sold our common stock at a lower price than the exercise price (subject to some exceptions). During the

three

months ended

March 31, 2020,

we adjusted downward the warrant exercise price to

$0.13,

resulting in an increase of

791,260

warrants available for exercise. The increase in warrants resulted in a fair value totaling

$100,000,

recorded as a deemed dividend in our consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity. 

Fair Value – Interest Expense

To determine interest expense related to our outstanding warrants issued in conjunction with debt offerings, the fair value of each award grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the relative fair values are amortized over the life of the warrant. For the determination of expense of warrants issued for services, extinguishment of debt and settlement management also uses the option-pricing model. The principal assumptions we used in applying this model were as follows:

	March 31, 2019			March 31, 2020
Risk free interest rate	2.18	–	2.62%		0.23	%
Expected volatility	86	–	110%		112	%

Commitments and Contingencies

Office Leases

We have long-term operating leases for office, industrial and laboratory space in Westminster, California, Oak Ridge, Tennessee, and Alberta, Canada. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the operating lease agreement. For the

three

months ended

March 31, 2019

and

2020,

rental expense was

$51,000

and

$55,000,

respectively.  On

January 1, 2019,

we adopted ASC

842

which resulted in a right-of-use asset and lease liability. Short-term leases are

not

included in our analysis. The adoption resulted in an immaterial cumulative effect of an accounting change that was

not

recorded.  The lease of our Westminster facility qualifies for the new treatment; it originated in

August 2016,

expires

August 2020,

contains a yearly escalation of

3%,

and includes a

four

-year renewal option whereby the base rent is adjusted to then market value. We intend to exercise the option to extend the lease for

four

years. That has been included in the analysis. The lease of our Oak Ridge, Tennessee facility also qualifies, and it had

one

executed extension to

September 2022,

and has

one

renewal option for another

five

years where the rental rate would adjust to greater of the current price and fair market value.

No

determination has been made whether to exercise the renewal option for the Oak Ridge facility. The lease of our Canadian facility is less than

one

year.

None

of our leases have additional terms related to the payments or mechanics of the lease: there are

not

any common area maintenance charges or tax sharing arrangements, easement provisions or any free rent. Since there is

no

explicit interest rate in leases, management used its incremental borrowing rate, which is estimated to be

18%.

As of

March 31, 2020,

our weighted average remaining lease term is

four

 years and the total remaining operating lease payments is

$667,000.

Clyra Medical Consulting Agreement

Clyra Medical (see Note

8

) entered into a consulting agreement with Beach House Consulting, LLC, through which Jack B. Strommen will be providing consulting services to Clyra related to its sales and marketing activities and in exchange receive

$23,000

per month for a period of

four

years. The agreement originally provided that Clyra’s obligation to pay fees under the agreement begin the month following Clyra reception of FDA pre-market clearance on its

first

product, which occurred in

September 2019.

In

December 2019,

the parties modified the agreement such that fees are incurred once Clyra generates

$250,000

in monthly revenue on average for

three

consecutive months. The total cash obligation related to the agreement would be approximately

$1.1

 million.

Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2020

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and Clyra Medical. Management believes Clyra Medical’s financial statements are appropriately consolidated with that of the Company after reviewing the guidance of ASC Topic 

810

,

 “Consolidation”, and concluding that BioLargo controls Clyra Medical. While BioLargo does

not

have voting interest control through a majority stock ownership of Clyra Medical (it owns

36%

of the outstanding voting stock), it does exercise control under the “Variable Interest Model”: there is substantial board overlap, BioLargo is the primary beneficiary since it has the power to direct Clyra Medical’s activities that most significantly impact Clyra Medical’s performance, and it has the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits (through royalties and licensing) that could be potentially significant to Clyra Medical. BioLargo has consolidated Clyra Medical’s operations for all periods presented.

All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated (see Note

8

). 

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy [Policy Text Block]

Foreign Currency

The Company has designated the functional currency of BioLargo Water, Inc., our Canadian subsidiary, to be the Canadian dollar. Therefore, translation gains and losses resulting from differences in exchange rates are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of

three

-months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. Substantially all cash equivalents are held in short-term money market accounts at

one

of the largest financial institutions in the United States. From time to time, our cash account balances are greater than the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit of

$250,000

per owner per bank, and during such times, we are exposed to credit loss for amounts in excess of insured limits in the event of non-performance by the financial institution. We do

not

anticipate non-performance by our financial institution.

Receivable [Policy Text Block]

Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivable are recorded net of allowances for doubtful accounts. Estimates for allowances for doubtful accounts are determined based on payment history and individual customer circumstances. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of 

December 31, 2019 

and

March 31, 2020

was 

$

24,000

.

Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Credit Concentration

We have a limited number of customers that account for significant portions of our revenue. During the

three

months ended

March 31, 2019

and

2020,

we had

three

customers that each accounted for more than

10%

of consolidated revenues in the respective periods, as follows:

	March 31, 2019			March 31, 2020
Customer A		<10	%		14	%
Customer B		<10	%		11	%
Customer C		<10	%		10	%
Customer D		43	%		<10	%
Customer E		10	%		<10	%
Customer F		26	%		<10	%

We had

two

customers that accounted for more than

10%

of consolidated accounts receivable at

December 31, 2019

and

one

customer that accounted for more than

10%

of consolidated accounts receivable at

March 31, 2020

as follows:

	December 31, 2019			March 31, 2020
Customer G		<10	%		12	%
Customer H		25	%		<10	%
Customer I		11	%		<10	%

Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the average cost method. The allowance for obsolete inventory as of 

December 31, 2019

and

March 31, 2020

was

$3,000

.

 As of

December 31, 2019

and

March 31, 2020,

inventories consisted of (in thousands):

	December 31, 2019		March 31, 2020
Raw material	$	11	$	30
Finished goods		5		3
Total	$	16	$	33

Other Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Other Assets

Other Assets consisted of security deposits of

$35,000

related to our business offices.

Lessee, Leases [Policy Text Block]

Leases

In

February 2016,

the FASB issued ASU Update

No.

2016

-

02,

“Leases,” which requires lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets as a right-of-use asset with a corresponding lease liability, and lessors to recognize a net lease investment. Additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures are also required. We adopted this standard effective

January 1, 2019

using the effective date option, which resulted in a

$399,000

gross up of assets and liabilities; this balance

may

fluctuate over time as we enter into new leases, extend or terminate current leases. Upon the transition to the ASC

842,

the Company elected to use hindsight as a practical expedient with respect to determining the lease terms (as we considered our updated expectations of acceptance of the Westminster California facility lease renewal) and in assessing any impairment of right-of-use assets for existing leases.

No

impairment is expected at this time.  As of

March 31, 2020,

the gross up of our balance sheet related to our operating leases totals

$386,000.

Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Impairment

Long-lived and definite lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset

may

not

be recoverable. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than the carrying amount of the asset, then an impairment loss is recognized. The impairment loss is measured based on the fair value of the asset. Any resulting impairment is recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the related asset in excess of fair value and a charge to operating results. For the

three

months ended

March 31, 2019

and

2020,

management determined that there was

no

impairment of its long-lived assets, including its In-process Research and Development at Clyra (see Note

8

).

Equity Method Investments [Policy Text Block]

Equity

Method of

Accounting

On

March 20, 2020,

we invested

$100,000

into a South Korean entity (Odin Co. Ltd., “Odin”) pursuant to a Joint Venture agreement we had entered into with BKT Co. Ltd. and its U.S. subsidiary, Tomorrow Water. We received a

40%

non-dilutive equity interest, and BKT and Tomorrow Water each received

30%

equity interests for an aggregate

$150,000

investment.

We account for our investment in the joint venture under the equity method of accounting. We have determined that while we have significant influence over the joint venture through our technology license and our position on the Board of Directors, we do

not

control the joint venture or are otherwise involved in managing the entity and we own less than a majority of the equity. Therefore, we record the asset on our consolidated balance sheet and record an increase or decrease the recorded balance by our percentage ownership of the profits or losses in the joint venture. During the

three

months ended

March 31, 2020,

the joint venture incurred a loss and our

40%

ownership share reduced our investment interest by

$1,000.

Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

We report basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) for common and common share equivalents. Basic EPS is computed by dividing reported earnings by the weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by adding to the weighted average shares the dilutive effect if stock options and warrants were exercised into common stock. For the

three

months ended

March 31, 2019

and

2020,

the denominator in the diluted EPS computation is the same as the denominator for basic EPS due to the anti-dilutive effect of the warrants and stock options on the Company’s net loss.

Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the period reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates are used when accounting for stock-based transactions, debt transactions, derivative liabilities, allowance for bad debt, asset depreciation and amortization, among others.

The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying these most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results of our financial statements.

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Policy Text Block]

Share-Based Compensation Expense

We recognize compensation expense for stock option awards on a straight-line basis over the applicable service period of the award, which is the vesting period. Fair value is determined on the grant date. Share-based compensation expense is based on the grant date fair value estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.

For stock and stock options issued to consultants and other non-employees for services, the Company measures and records an expense as of the earlier of the date at which either: a commitment for performance by the non-employee has been reached or the non-employee’s performance is complete. The equity instruments are measured at the current fair value, and for stock options, the instruments are measured at fair value using the Black Scholes option model.

For equity instruments issued and outstanding where performance is

not

complete, but the instrument has been recorded, those instruments are measured again at their then current fair market values at each of the reporting dates (they are “marked-to market”) until the performance and the contract are complete.

The following methodology and assumptions were used to calculate share-based compensation for the

three

months ended

March 31, 2019

and

2020:

	2019						2020
	Non Plan			2018 Plan			Non Plan			20 18 Plan
Risk free interest rate	1.68	-	2.65%	1.68	-	2.65%		0.88	%	0.88	-	1.90%
Expected volatility	133	-	152%	133	-	152%		131	%	131	-	133%
Expected dividend yield		—			—			—			—
Forfeiture rate		—			—			—			—
Life in years		10			10			10			10

Expected price volatility is the measure by which our stock price is expected to fluctuate during the expected term of an option. Expected volatility is derived from the historical daily change in the market price of our common stock, as we believe that historical volatility is the best indicator of future volatility.

The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes calculation is based on the prevailing U.S. Treasury yield as determined by the U.S. Federal Reserve. We have never paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do

not

anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

Historically, we have

not

had significant forfeitures of unvested stock options granted to employees and Directors. A significant number of our stock option grants are fully vested at issuance or have short vesting provisions. Therefore, we have estimated the forfeiture rate of our outstanding stock options as zero.

Warrant Policy [Policy Text Block]

Warrants

Warrants issued with our convertible promissory notes, note payables, line of credit are accounted for under the fair value and relative fair value method.

The warrant is

first

analyzed per its terms as to whether it has derivative features or

not.

If the warrant is determined to be a derivative and

not

qualify for equity treatment, then it is measured at fair value using the Black Scholes option model, and recorded as a liability on the balance sheet. The warrant is re-measured at its then current fair value at each subsequent reporting date (it is “marked-to-market”).

If the warrant is determined to

not

have derivative features, it is recorded into equity at its fair value using the Black Scholes option model, however, limited to a relative fair value based upon the percentage of its fair value to the total fair value including the fair value of the convertible note.

The convertible note issued with the warrant is recorded at its fair value, limited to a relative fair value based upon the percentage of its fair value to the total fair value including the fair value of the warrant. Further, the convertible promissory note is examined for any intrinsic beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) of which the convertible price of the note is less than the closing common stock price on date of issuance. If the relative fair value method is used to value the convertible promissory note and there is an intrinsic BCF, a further analysis is undertaken of the BCF using an effective conversion price which assumes the conversion price is the relative fair value divided by the number of shares the convertible debt is converted into by its terms. The BCF value is accounted for as equity.

The warrant and BCF relative fair values are also recorded as a discount to the convertible promissory notes. At present, these equity features of the convertible promissory notes have recorded a discount to the convertible notes that is substantially equal to the proceeds received.

Non Cash Transactions [Policy Text Block]

Non-Cash Transactions

We have established a policy relative to the methodology to determine the value assigned to each intangible we acquire, and/or services or products received for non-cash consideration of our common stock. The value is based on the market price of our common stock issued as consideration, at the date of the agreement of each transaction or when the service is rendered or product is received.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Policy Text Block]

Revenue Recognition

We account for revenue in accordance with ASC

606,

“revenue from Contacts with Customers”. The guidance focuses on the core principle for revenue recognition, which is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, the guidance provides that an entity should apply the following steps:

Step

1:

Identify the contract(s) with a customer.

Step

2:

Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

Step

3:

Determine the transaction price.

Step

4:

Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

Step

5:

Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

We have revenue from

two

subsidiaries, Odor-

No

-More and BLEST. Odor-

No

-More identifies its contract with the customer through a written purchase order, in which the details of the contract are defined including the transaction price and method of shipment. The only performance obligation is to create and ship the product and each product has separate pricing. Odor-

No

-More recognizes revenue at a point in time when the order for its goods are shipped if its agreement with the customer is FOB Odor-

No

-More’s warehouse facility, and when goods are delivered to its customer if its agreement with the customer is FOB destination. Revenue is recognized with a reduction for sales discounts, as appropriate and negotiated in the customer’s purchase order. Odor-

No

-More also installs misting systems for which it bills on a time and materials basis. It identifies its contract with the customer through a written purchase order in which the details of the time to be billed and materials purchased and an estimated completion date. The performance obligation is the completion of the installation. Revenue is recognized in arrears as the work is performed.

BLEST identifies services to be performed in a written contract, which specifies the performance obligations and the rate at which the services will be billed. Each service is separately negotiated and priced. Revenue is recognized as services are performed and completed. BLEST’s contracts typically call for invoicing for time and materials incurred for that contract. A few contracts have called for milestone or fixed cost payments, where BLEST invoices an agreed-to amount per month for the life of the contract. In these instances, completed work, billed hourly, is recognized as revenue. If the billing amount is greater or lesser than the completed work, a receivable or payable is created. These accounts are adjusted upon additional billings as the work is completed. To date, there have been

no

discounts or other financing terms for the contracts.

In the event that we generate revenues from royalties or license fees from our intellectual property, we anticipate a licensee would pay a license fee in

one

or more installments and ongoing royalties based on their sales of products incorporating or using our licensed intellectual property. Upon entering into a licensing agreement, we will determine the appropriate method of recognizing the royalty and license fees.

Government Grants [Policy Text Block]

Government Grants

We have been awarded multiple research grants from governmental and quasi-governmental institutions. The grants received are considered “other income” and are included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. We received our

first

grant in

2015

and have been awarded over

75

 grants totaling over

$3.6

million. Some of the funds from these grants are given directly to

third

parties (such as the University of Alberta or a

third

-party research scientist) to support research on our technology. The grants have terms generally ranging between

six

and

eighteen

months and support a majority, but

not

all, of the related research budget costs. This cooperative research allows us to utilize (i) a depth of resources and talent to accomplish highly skilled work, (ii) financial aid to support research and development costs, (iii) independent and credible validation of our technical claims.

The grants typically provide for (i) recurring monthly amounts, (ii) reimbursement of costs for research talent for which we invoice to request payment, and (iii) ancillary cost reimbursement for research talent travel related costs. All awarded grants have specific requirements on how the money is spent, typically to employ researchers.

None

of the funds

may

be used for general administrative expenses or overhead in the United States. These grants have substantially increased our level of research and development activities in Canada. We continue to apply for Canadian government and agency grants to fund research and development activities.

Not

all of our grant applications have been awarded, and

no

assurance can be made that any pending grant application, or any future grant applications, will be awarded.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Management believes the carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments (excluding debt and equity instruments) as of

December 31, 2019

and

March 31, 2020

approximate their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Such instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid assets, accounts payable, lines of credit, and other assets and liabilities.

Notes to Financial Statements

Wholly-Owned Subsidiary [Text Block]

Note

9.

BioLargo Engineering, Science and Technologies, LLC

In

September 2017,

we commenced a full-service environmental engineering firm and formed a Tennessee entity named BioLargo Engineering, Science & Technologies, LLC (“BLEST”). In conjunction with the start of this subsidiary, we entered into a

three

-year office lease in the Knoxville, Tennessee area, and entered into employment agreements with

six

scientists and engineers. (See Note

12

“Business Segment Information”.) The company was capitalized with

two

classes of membership units: Class A,

100%

owned by Biolargo, and Class B, held by management of BLEST, and which initially have

no

“profit interest,” as that term is defined in Tennessee law. However, over the succeeding

five

years, the Class B members can earn up to a

30%

profit interest. They also have been granted options to purchase up to an aggregate

1,750,000

shares of BioLargo, Inc. common stock. The profit interest and option shares are subject to a

five

year vesting schedule tied to the performance of the subsidiary, including gross revenue targets that increase over time, obtaining positive cash flow by

March 31, 2018 (

which was

not

met), collecting

90%

of its account receivables, obtaining a profit of

10%

in its

first

year (and increasing in subsequent years), making progress in the scale-up and commercialization of our AOS system, and using BioLargo research scientists (such as our Canadian team) for billable work on client projects. These criteria are to be evaluated annually by BLEST’s compensation committee (which includes BioLargo’s president, CFO, and BLEST’s president), beginning

September 2018.

Given the significant performance criteria, the Class B units and the stock options will only be recognized in compensation expense if or when the criteria are satisfied.

 Since the commencement of operations, the Compensation Committee has met twice, once in

September 2018,

and once in

November 2019.

In

2018,

it reviewed the operating performance and determined that the performance metrics were

not

met and as a result, did

not

award any Class B units or stock options. The Committee decided to roll forward

one

additional year to the time allowed for the performance metrics to be met and for the Class B units and stock options to be awarded.

In

November 2019,

the Compensation Committee again reviewed the operating performance and determined that a portion of the performance metrics were met. It was agreed that

one

-half of the eligible profits interests would be vested (

2.5%

in the aggregate). The fair value of the profit interest was nominal and

not

recorded. Nevertheless, Biolargo treats the

2.5%

profits interest as part of the noncontrolling interest on both the balance sheet and the statement of operations.

Chief Financial Officer Contract Extension

On

February 25, 2020,

we and our Chief Financial Officer Charles K. Dargan, II, formally agreed to extend the engagement agreement dated

February 1, 2008 (

the “Engagement Agreement”, which had been previously extended multiple times), pursuant to which Mr. Dargan has been and continues to serve as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. The Engagement Extension Agreement dated as of

February 25, 2020 (

the “Engagement Extension Agreement”) provides for an additional term to begin retroactively on

October 1, 2019,

and to expire

January 31, 2021 (

the “Extended Term”).

As compensation for the Extended Term, Mr. Dargan was issued an option (“Option”) to purchase

427,500

shares of our common stock. The Option vests over the period of the Extended Term, with

177,500

shares having vested as of

March 31, 2020,

and the remaining

250,000

shares to vest monthly through

January 31, 2021,

so long as the agreement is in full force and effect. The Option is exercisable at

$0.21

per share, the closing price of our common stock on

February 25, 2020,

expires

ten

years from the grant date, and was issued pursuant to the

2018

Equity Incentive Plan.

The Option is Mr. Dargan’s sole compensation for the Extended Term. As was the case in all prior terms of his engagement, there is

no

cash component of his compensation for the Extended Term. Mr. Dargan is eligible to be reimbursed for business expenses he incurs in connection with the performance of his services as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer (although he has made

no

such requests for reimbursement in the past). All other provisions of the Engagement Agreement

not

expressly amended pursuant to the Engagement Extension Agreement remain the same, including provisions regarding indemnification and arbitration of disputes.

Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]

Note

2.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

In the opinion of management, the accompanying balance sheet and related statements of operations, cash flows, and stockholders’ deficit include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, necessary for their fair presentation in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and Clyra Medical. Management believes Clyra Medical’s financial statements are appropriately consolidated with that of the Company after reviewing the guidance of ASC Topic 

810

,

 “Consolidation”, and concluding that BioLargo controls Clyra Medical. While BioLargo does

not

have voting interest control through a majority stock ownership of Clyra Medical (it owns

36%

of the outstanding voting stock), it does exercise control under the “Variable Interest Model”: there is substantial board overlap, BioLargo is the primary beneficiary since it has the power to direct Clyra Medical’s activities that most significantly impact Clyra Medical’s performance, and it has the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits (through royalties and licensing) that could be potentially significant to Clyra Medical. BioLargo has consolidated Clyra Medical’s operations for all periods presented.

All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated (see Note

8

). 

Foreign Currency

The Company has designated the functional currency of BioLargo Water, Inc., our Canadian subsidiary, to be the Canadian dollar. Therefore, translation gains and losses resulting from differences in exchange rates are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of

three

-months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. Substantially all cash equivalents are held in short-term money market accounts at

one

of the largest financial institutions in the United States. From time to time, our cash account balances are greater than the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit of

$250,000

per owner per bank, and during such times, we are exposed to credit loss for amounts in excess of insured limits in the event of non-performance by the financial institution. We do

not

anticipate non-performance by our financial institution.

Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivable are recorded net of allowances for doubtful accounts. Estimates for allowances for doubtful accounts are determined based on payment history and individual customer circumstances. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of 

December 31, 2019 

and

March 31, 2020

was 

$24,000

.

Credit Concentration

We have a limited number of customers that account for significant portions of our revenue. During the

three

months ended

March 31, 2019

and

2020,

we had

three

customers that each accounted for more than

10%

of consolidated revenues in the respective periods, as follows:

	March 31, 2019			March 31, 2020
Customer A		<10	%		14	%
Customer B		<10	%		11	%
Customer C		<10	%		10	%
Customer D		43	%		<10	%
Customer E		10	%		<10	%
Customer F		26	%		<10	%

We had

two

customers that accounted for more than

10%

of consolidated accounts receivable at

December 31, 2019

and

one

customer that accounted for more than

10%

of consolidated accounts receivable at

March 31, 2020

as follows:

	December 31, 2019			March 31, 2020
Customer G		<10	%		12	%
Customer H		25	%		<10	%
Customer I		11	%		<10	%

Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the average cost method. The allowance for obsolete inventory as of 

December 31, 2019

and

March 31, 2020

was

$3,000

.

 As of

December 31, 2019

and

March 31, 2020,

inventories consisted of (in thousands):

	December 31, 2019		March 31, 2020
Raw material	$	11	$	30
Finished goods		5		3
Total	$	16	$	33

Other Assets

Other Assets consisted of security deposits of

$35,000

related to our business offices.

Leases

In

February 2016,

the FASB issued ASU Update

No.

2016

-

02,

“Leases,” which requires lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets as a right-of-use asset with a corresponding lease liability, and lessors to recognize a net lease investment. Additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures are also required. We adopted this standard effective

January 1, 2019

using the effective date option, which resulted in a

$399,000

gross up of assets and liabilities; this balance

may

fluctuate over time as we enter into new leases, extend or terminate current leases. Upon the transition to the ASC

842,

the Company elected to use hindsight as a practical expedient with respect to determining the lease terms (as we considered our updated expectations of acceptance of the Westminster California facility lease renewal) and in assessing any impairment of right-of-use assets for existing leases.

No

impairment is expected at this time.  As of

March 31, 2020,

the gross up of our balance sheet related to our operating leases totals

$386,000.

Impairment

Long-lived and definite lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset

may

not

be recoverable. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than the carrying amount of the asset, then an impairment loss is recognized. The impairment loss is measured based on the fair value of the asset. Any resulting impairment is recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the related asset in excess of fair value and a charge to operating results. For the

three

months ended

March 31, 2019

and

2020,

management determined that there was

no

impairment of its long-lived assets, including its In-process Research and Development at Clyra (see Note

8

).

Equity

Method of

Accounting

On

March 20, 2020,

we invested

$100,000

into a South Korean entity (Odin Co. Ltd., “Odin”) pursuant to a Joint Venture agreement we had entered into with BKT Co. Ltd. and its U.S. subsidiary, Tomorrow Water. We received a

40%

non-dilutive equity interest, and BKT and Tomorrow Water each received

30%

equity interests for an aggregate

$150,000

investment.

We account for our investment in the joint venture under the equity method of accounting. We have determined that while we have significant influence over the joint venture through our technology license and our position on the Board of Directors, we do

not

control the joint venture or are otherwise involved in managing the entity and we own less than a majority of the equity. Therefore, we record the asset on our consolidated balance sheet and record an increase or decrease the recorded balance by our percentage ownership of the profits or losses in the joint venture. During the

three

months ended

March 31, 2020,

the joint venture incurred a loss and our

40%

ownership share reduced our investment interest by

$1,000.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

We report basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) for common and common share equivalents. Basic EPS is computed by dividing reported earnings by the weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by adding to the weighted average shares the dilutive effect if stock options and warrants were exercised into common stock. For the

three

months ended

March 31, 2019

and

2020,

the denominator in the diluted EPS computation is the same as the denominator for basic EPS due to the anti-dilutive effect of the warrants and stock options on the Company’s net loss.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the period reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates are used when accounting for stock-based transactions, debt transactions, derivative liabilities, allowance for bad debt, asset depreciation and amortization, among others.

The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying these most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results of our financial statements.

Share-Based Compensation Expense

We recognize compensation expense for stock option awards on a straight-line basis over the applicable service period of the award, which is the vesting period. Fair value is determined on the grant date. Share-based compensation expense is based on the grant date fair value estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.

For stock and stock options issued to consultants and other non-employees for services, the Company measures and records an expense as of the earlier of the date at which either: a commitment for performance by the non-employee has been reached or the non-employee’s performance is complete. The equity instruments are measured at the current fair value, and for stock options, the instruments are measured at fair value using the Black Scholes option model.

For equity instruments issued and outstanding where performance is

not

complete, but the instrument has been recorded, those instruments are measured again at their then current fair market values at each of the reporting dates (they are “marked-to market”) until the performance and the contract are complete.

The following methodology and assumptions were used to calculate share-based compensation for the

three

months ended

March 31, 2019

and

2020:

	2019						2020
	Non Plan			2018 Plan			Non Plan			20 18 Plan
Risk free interest rate	1.68	-	2.65%	1.68	-	2.65%		0.88	%	0.88	-	1.90%
Expected volatility	133	-	152%	133	-	152%		131	%	131	-	133%
Expected dividend yield		—			—			—			—
Forfeiture rate		—			—			—			—
Life in years		10			10			10			10

Expected price volatility is the measure by which our stock price is expected to fluctuate during the expected term of an option. Expected volatility is derived from the historical daily change in the market price of our common stock, as we believe that historical volatility is the best indicator of future volatility.

The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes calculation is based on the prevailing U.S. Treasury yield as determined by the U.S. Federal Reserve. We have never paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do

not

anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

Historically, we have

not

had significant forfeitures of unvested stock options granted to employees and Directors. A significant number of our stock option grants are fully vested at issuance or have short vesting provisions. Therefore, we have estimated the forfeiture rate of our outstanding stock options as zero.

Warrants

Warrants issued with our convertible promissory notes, note payables, line of credit are accounted for under the fair value and relative fair value method.

The warrant is

first

analyzed per its terms as to whether it has derivative features or

not.

If the warrant is determined to be a derivative and

not

qualify for equity treatment, then it is measured at fair value using the Black Scholes option model, and recorded as a liability on the balance sheet. The warrant is re-measured at its then current fair value at each subsequent reporting date (it is “marked-to-market”).

If the warrant is determined to

not

have derivative features, it is recorded into equity at its fair value using the Black Scholes option model, however, limited to a relative fair value based upon the percentage of its fair value to the total fair value including the fair value of the convertible note.

The convertible note issued with the warrant is recorded at its fair value, limited to a relative fair value based upon the percentage of its fair value to the total fair value including the fair value of the warrant. Further, the convertible promissory note is examined for any intrinsic beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) of which the convertible price of the note is less than the closing common stock price on date of issuance. If the relative fair value method is used to value the convertible promissory note and there is an intrinsic BCF, a further analysis is undertaken of the BCF using an effective conversion price which assumes the conversion price is the relative fair value divided by the number of shares the convertible debt is converted into by its terms. The BCF value is accounted for as equity.

The warrant and BCF relative fair values are also recorded as a discount to the convertible promissory notes. At present, these equity features of the convertible promissory notes have recorded a discount to the convertible notes that is substantially equal to the proceeds received.

Non-Cash Transactions

We have established a policy relative to the methodology to determine the value assigned to each intangible we acquire, and/or services or products received for non-cash consideration of our common stock. The value is based on the market price of our common stock issued as consideration, at the date of the agreement of each transaction or when the service is rendered or product is received.

Revenue Recognition

We account for revenue in accordance with ASC

606,

“revenue from Contacts with Customers”. The guidance focuses on the core principle for revenue recognition, which is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, the guidance provides that an entity should apply the following steps:

Step

1:

Identify the contract(s) with a customer.

Step

2:

Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

Step

3:

Determine the transaction price.

Step

4:

Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

Step

5:

Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

We have revenue from

two

subsidiaries, Odor-

No

-More and BLEST. Odor-

No

-More identifies its contract with the customer through a written purchase order, in which the details of the contract are defined including the transaction price and method of shipment. The only performance obligation is to create and ship the product and each product has separate pricing. Odor-

No

-More recognizes revenue at a point in time when the order for its goods are shipped if its agreement with the customer is FOB Odor-

No

-More’s warehouse facility, and when goods are delivered to its customer if its agreement with the customer is FOB destination. Revenue is recognized with a reduction for sales discounts, as appropriate and negotiated in the customer’s purchase order. Odor-

No

-More also installs misting systems for which it bills on a time and materials basis. It identifies its contract with the customer through a written purchase order in which the details of the time to be billed and materials purchased and an estimated completion date. The performance obligation is the completion of the installation. Revenue is recognized in arrears as the work is performed.

BLEST identifies services to be performed in a written contract, which specifies the performance obligations and the rate at which the services will be billed. Each service is separately negotiated and priced. Revenue is recognized as services are performed and completed. BLEST’s contracts typically call for invoicing for time and materials incurred for that contract. A few contracts have called for milestone or fixed cost payments, where BLEST invoices an agreed-to amount per month for the life of the contract. In these instances, completed work, billed hourly, is recognized as revenue. If the billing amount is greater or lesser than the completed work, a receivable or payable is created. These accounts are adjusted upon additional billings as the work is completed. To date, there have been

no

discounts or other financing terms for the contracts.

In the event that we generate revenues from royalties or license fees from our intellectual property, we anticipate a licensee would pay a license fee in

one

or more installments and ongoing royalties based on their sales of products incorporating or using our licensed intellectual property. Upon entering into a licensing agreement, we will determine the appropriate method of recognizing the royalty and license fees.

Government Grants

We have been awarded multiple research grants from governmental and quasi-governmental institutions. The grants received are considered “other income” and are included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. We received our

first

grant in

2015

and have been awarded over

75

 grants totaling over

$3.6

million. Some of the funds from these grants are given directly to

third

parties (such as the University of Alberta or a

third

-party research scientist) to support research on our technology. The grants have terms generally ranging between

six

and

eighteen

months and support a majority, but

not

all, of the related research budget costs. This cooperative research allows us to utilize (i) a depth of resources and talent to accomplish highly skilled work, (ii) financial aid to support research and development costs, (iii) independent and credible validation of our technical claims.

The grants typically provide for (i) recurring monthly amounts, (ii) reimbursement of costs for research talent for which we invoice to request payment, and (iii) ancillary cost reimbursement for research talent travel related costs. All awarded grants have specific requirements on how the money is spent, typically to employ researchers.

None

of the funds

may

be used for general administrative expenses or overhead in the United States. These grants have substantially increased our level of research and development activities in Canada. We continue to apply for Canadian government and agency grants to fund research and development activities.

Not

all of our grant applications have been awarded, and

no

assurance can be made that any pending grant application, or any future grant applications, will be awarded.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Management believes the carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments (excluding debt and equity instruments) as of

December 31, 2019

and

March 31, 2020

approximate their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Such instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid assets, accounts payable, lines of credit, and other assets and liabilities.

Lincoln Park Financing

During the

three

months ended

March 31, 2020,

pursuant to our

August 2017

agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (“Lincoln Park”), we elected to sell to Lincoln Park

1,398,223

shares of our common stock for which we received

$295,000.

Additionally, we issued Lincoln Park

14,420

“additional commitment” shares.  We did

not

sell any shares to Lincoln Park during the

three

months ended

March 31, 2019. 

In conjunction with the signing of the

March 2020

agreement with Lincoln Park (see below), we recorded the remaining deferred offering costs totaling

$122,000

as additional paid in capital on our consolidated balance sheet.

On

March 30,

, 

2020,

we entered into a Purchase Agreement with Lincoln Park, pursuant to which Lincoln Park agreed to purchase from us at our request up to an aggregate of

$10,250,000

of our common stock (subject to certain limitations) from time to time over a period of

three

years. The agreement allows us, at our sole discretion, to direct Lincoln Park to purchase shares of our common stock, subject to limitations in both volume and dollar amount. The purchase price of the shares that

may

be sold to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement is the lower of (i) the lowest sale price on the date of purchase, or (ii) the average of the

three

lowest closing prices in the prior

12

business days. There are

no

restrictions on future financings, rights of

first

refusal, participation rights, penalties or liquidated damages other than a prohibition on entering into a “Variable Rate Transaction,” as defined in the agreement. Lincoln Park

may

not

assign or transfer its rights and obligations under the Purchase Agreement. This agreement replaced the

August 2017

agreement with Lincoln Park. Concurrently with the Purchase Agreement, we entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which we filed a registration statement on Form S-

1

with the SEC on

April 10, 2020.

This registration statement was declared effective on

April 21, 2020,

and as of

April 29, 2020,

we commenced regular purchases under the agreement.

In the

March 30, 2020

agreement, we agreed to issue

2,928,571

shares to Lincoln Park as a commitment fee, valued at

$527,000

and recorded as additional paid in capital on our consolidated balance sheet as of

March 31, 2020. 

Additionally, the Purchase Agreement provided for an initial sale of

1,785,715

shares to Lincoln Park for

$250,000.

We received those funds and issued the shares on

March 31, 2020.

During

2019,

Clyra began issuing options to its employees and consultants in lieu of compensation owed. As of

December 31, 2019,

the Company had issued options to purchase

7,624

shares of Clyra stock. In the

three

months ended

March 31, 2020,

Clyra issued options to purchase

1,945

shares of common stock to employees and vendors in exchange for a reduction of

$206,000

in payables owed. Each option issued has an exercise price of

$1.00

per share, are vested upon issuance and an expiration date

10

years from the date of grant. The fair value of the options issued in the

three

months ended

March 31, 2020,

totaled

$420,000,

and the additional fair value totaling

$214,000

was recorded as a loss on extinguishment of debt in our consolidated statement of operations. We used the Black-Scholes model to calculate the initial fair value, assuming a stock price on date of grant of

$310

per share. Because Clyra is a private company with

no

secondary market for its common stock, the resulting fair value was discounted by

30%.

Convertible Note, matures

October 7, 2019 (

Vista Capital)

On

January 7, 2019,

Vista Capital Investments LLC (“Vista Capital”) invested

$300,000

and in exchange we issued a convertible promissory note (the “Vista

2019

Note”) in the principal amount of

$330,000.

Originally set to mature

nine

months from the date of issuance, the maturity date was extended multiple times. The note earned a

one

-time interest charge of

12%,

which was recorded as a discount on convertible notes and was amortized over the term of the note. The note allowed conversion of the note into our common stock at a price equal to

65%

of the lowest closing bid price of the Company’s common stock during the

25

consecutive trading days immediately preceding the conversion date. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature resulted in a fair value totaling

$300,000,

and is recorded as a discount on convertible notes on our balance sheet. This discount will be amortized over the term of the note as interest expense, all of which was recorded in

2019.

During the

three

months ended

March 31, 2020,

Vista Capital elected to convert the remaining balance of

$270,000

of the outstanding principal and interest due on the note, and we issued

2,417,059

shares of our common stock.

Convertible Twelve-month OID notes

From

June 7, 2019

through

September 30, 2019,

we received

$2,235,000

and issued convertible promissory notes (each, a

“12

-Month OID Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of

$2,794,000,

with a

25%

original issue discount, to

34

accredited investors. The original issuance discount totaled

$559,000

and is recorded as a discount on convertible notes payable on our balance sheet. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion features resulted in an aggregate fair value of

$2,235,000,

and is recorded as a discount on convertible notes on our balance sheet. The discounts will be amortized and recorded to interest expense over the term of the notes. These notes mature

twelve

months from the date of issuance.

During the

three

months

July 1, 2019

through

September 30, 2019,

in exchange for

$305,000

of convertible note payables that were coming due, we issued an additional

$381,000

convertible promissory notes (each, a

“12

-Month OID Note), with a

25%

original issue discount. The original issue discount totaled

$76,000

and is recorded as a discount on convertible notes payable on our balance sheet. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion features resulted in an aggregate fair value of

$381,000

and is recorded as debt extinguishment expense on our statement of operations. The discount will be amortized and recorded to interest expense over the term of the notes. These notes mature

twelve

months from the date of issuance.  

Each Twelve-month OID Note is convertible by the investor at any time at

$0.17

per share. This initial conversion price shall be adjusted downward in the event the Company subsequently issues a convertible promissory note at a lower conversion rate (with this lower conversion rate becoming the adjusted conversion rate under the note), or conducts an equity offering at a per-share price less than

$0.17.

The notes earn interest at a rate of

five

percent (

5%

) per annum, due at maturity. The Company

may

prepay the notes only upon

10

days’ notice to the investor, during which time the investor

may

exercise his/her right to convert the note to stock. The Company is obligated to prepay the notes in the event it receives at least

$3.5

million gross proceeds in a financing transaction. At maturity, the Company

may

redeem the notes through the issuance of common stock at a conversion price equal to the lower of the “conversion price” (initially

$0.17,

as

may

be adjusted), and

70%

of the lowest daily volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock during the

25

trading days preceding the conversion date.

During the

three

months ended

March 31, 2020,

noteholders elected to convert

$165,000

of the outstanding principal of

12

-Month OID Notes and we issued

970,590

shares of our common stock. As of

March 31, 2020,

the outstanding balance on the

12

-Month OID Notes was

$2,948,000.
