We believe that cash from operations and cash on hand, in addition to unused borrowing capacity, which has recently been increased (see Note 7), may not be adequate to fund our operating plans through the next twelve months. We are working to reduce these risks and the results of the Company in this regard have improved markedly, but some of this is dependent on several things over which we have limited control. The significant revenue growth that we have experienced has required additional investment in both working capital and capital equipment. This has constrained liquidity and made cash management a top priority. Generally, our growth has required significant additional investment in working capital. To support our growth and reduce costs, we also intend to invest in additional capital equipment through 2021 and in 2022. Given these issues, and other commercial realities, we are monitoring the additional working capital demands that this could create as we continue to execute on our Solésence growth strategy. The timing of cash flows is critical. If cash generated from operations is not materially consistent with our plans, we believe that we may need to seek additional funding to address working capital demands. This uncertainty has caused us to be unable to assert that, for the next twelve months, we have enough current cash and guaranteed access to financing to fund operations, and to continue with our current growth strategy in terms of investment in capital equipment and in operating expenses related to Solésence, without securing additional financing.

 

These circumstances raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to operate as a going concern under U.S. GAAP. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP. As such, no adjustments have been made to the consolidated financial statements for the recoverability of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue operating as a going concern.

 

We believe that we will be able to secure additional financing if needed, but we do not have any additional financing commitments in place as of today. However, we may not be able to secure additional financing in a timely manner under commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If we are unable to secure additional financing, the operations of the Company might need to be curtailed to a certain degree, and we would need to delay capital expenditures related to our Solésence growth strategy, which could impede growth, and impact cost savings anticipated in 2021 and 2022.
