BIO-KEY INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2013 (Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BIO-key International, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary (collectively, the “Company”) and are stated in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. Pursuant to such rules and regulations, certain financial information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements have been condensed or omitted. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all necessary adjustments, consisting only of those of a recurring nature, and disclosures to present fairly the Company’s financial position and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The balance sheet at December 31, 2012 was derived from the audited financial statements, but does not include all of the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 (the “Form 10-K”), filed on April 1, 2013.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
On July 18, 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-11, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists” (“ASU 2013-11”). ASU 2013-11 is expected to reduce diversity in practice by providing guidance on the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits and will better reflect the manner in which an entity would settle at the reporting date any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position when net operating loss carryforwards, similar tax losses, or tax credit carryforwards exist. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of its pending adoption of ASU 2013-11 on its consolidated financial statements.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standard if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
2. GOING CONCERN
The Company has incurred significant losses to date and at June 30, 2013, had an accumulated deficit of approximately $53 million. In addition, broad commercial acceptance of the Company’s technology is critical to the Company’s success and ability to generate future revenues. At June 30, 2013, the Company’s total cash and cash equivalents were approximately $100,000, as compared to approximately $84,000 at December 31, 2012.
The Company has financed itself in the past through access to the capital markets by issuing secured and convertible debt securities, convertible preferred stock, common stock, and through factoring receivables. The Company currently requires approximately $390,000 per month to conduct operations, a monthly amount that it has been unable to achieve through revenue generation.
During the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company raised proceeds of $1,297,000 net of fees through the issuance of a senior secured promissory note and shares of common stock. (See Notes 5 and 6).
If the Company is unable to generate sufficient revenue to meet its goals, it will need to obtain additional third-party financing to (i) conduct the sales, marketing and technical support necessary to execute its plan to substantially grow operations, increase revenue and serve a significant customer base; and (ii) provide working capital. No assurance can be given that any form of additional financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, that adequate financing will be obtained by the Company, in order to meet its needs, or that such financing would not be dilutive to existing shareholders.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern, and assumes continuity of operations, realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The matters described in the preceding paragraphs raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon the Company’s ability to meet its financing requirements on a continuing basis, and become profitable in its future operations. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.
3. SHARE BASED COMPENSATION
The following table presents share-based compensation expenses included in the Company’s unaudited condensed interim consolidated statements of operations:

4. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE COMMON STOCK (“EPS”)
The Company’s basic EPS is calculated using net income (loss) available to common shareholders and the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted EPS includes the effect from potential issuance of common stock, such as stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options and warrants and the assumed conversion of convertible notes and preferred stock.
The reconciliation of the numerators of the basic and diluted EPS calculations was as follows for both of the following three and six month periods ended June 30:

There were no weighted average shares of common stock that were included in the diluted per share calculation for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, and June 30, 2012, as the effects would have been anti-dilutive.
Items excluded from the diluted per share calculation because the exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares:

5. NOTE PAYABLE
The 2010 Exchange Agreement
Effective as of December 31, 2010, the Company entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (the “2010 Exchange Agreement”) with Thomas Colatosti (“Colatosti”), the Company’s Chairman of the Board. Pursuant to the 2010 Exchange Agreement, Mr. Colatosti agreed to exchange all of his outstanding shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, including all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, and the 7% Convertible Promissory Note dated as of December 28, 2009 issued by the Company to Mr. Colatosti in the original principal amount of $64,878 for a new non-convertible 7% Secured Promissory Note in the original principal amount of $350,804 (the “Colatosti Note”).
The principal and interest under the Colatosti Note was scheduled to be repaid by the Company in cash on December 31, 2012. Pursuant to a Note Amendment and Extension Agreement effective as of December 31, 2012, the maturity date of the Colatosti Note was extended to March 31, 2013. In February 2013, the principal balance and accrued interest owing under the Colatosti Note was repaid from the proceeds of the new financing (see Note 6). At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the amount payable under the Colatosti Note was $0 and $321,428, respectively.
2013 Note Purchase Agreement
Pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement (the “InterDigital NPA”), dated February 26, 2013, by and between the Company and DRNC Holdings, Inc. (“DRNC”), the Company issued to DRNC a promissory note in the principal amount of $497,307 (the “InterDigital Note”), which accrues interest at a rate of 7% per annum, with a default rate of 9% per annum while a nonpayment default is continuing. The InterDigital Note matures on December 31, 2015, is secured by a security interest in all of the tangible and intangible assets of the Company and is subject to acceleration upon an event of default. Under the InterDigital NPA, commencing July 1, 2013, the Company is required to comply with certain financial covenants, including a leverage ratio covenant and an annual limit on capital expenditures other than in the ordinary course of business. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the InterDigital Note were used to repay the Colatosti Note in full, with the remaining proceeds to be used for other general corporate purposes. At June 30, 2013, the amount payable under the InterDigital Note was $497,307.
In connection with the InterDigital NPA and InterDigital Note, the Company incurred costs totaling $57,203. Such costs were capitalized and are being amortized over the term of the InterDigital Note on the effective interest method.
6. STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIENCY
Issuances of Common Stock
Pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated February 26, 2013, by and between the Company and DRNC (the “InterDigital SPA”), the Company issued to DRNC 4,026,935 shares of its common stock at a purchase price $0.10 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $402,693. DRNC has anti-dilution rights under the InterDigital SPA that would require the Company to issue additional shares to DRNC on a full-ratchet basis if the Company, within the nine months following February 26, 2013, sells or issues any common stock or common stock equivalents (other than sales or issuances to directors, officers, employees or independent contractors in the ordinary course of business for compensation purposes and stock splits and stock dividends payable in respect of the Company’s common stock) having a purchase, exercise or conversion price per share of less than $0.10.
Concurrently with the closing of the transactions described above, the Company closed an equity financing with a number of private investors pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Private Investor SPA”). Pursuant to the Private Investor SPA, the Company issued to such investors 5,000,000 shares of its common stock at a purchase price $0.10 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $500,000.
In connection with the share issuances described above, the Company incurred costs of $46,176, which were offset against additional paid-in capital.

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, 2,350,000 stock options were granted. 50,000 options were granted in the three months ended June 30, 2013. Terms of the options issued include the following: term - 7 years, exercise price - $0.174, vesting - 3 years.
Derivative Liabilities
In connection with the issuances of equity instruments or debt, the Company may issue options or warrants to purchase common stock. In certain circumstances, these options or warrants may be classified as liabilities, rather than as equity. In addition, the equity instrument or debt may contain embedded derivative instruments, such as conversion options or listing requirements, which in certain circumstances may be required to be bifurcated from the associated host instrument and accounted for separately as a derivative liability instrument. The Company accounts for derivative liability instruments under the provisions of FASB ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.”
As discussed above, the Company issued shares to DRNC that contain anti-dilution rights. The Company determined that the anti-dilution rights are embedded derivatives that must be bifurcated and recorded as derivative liabilities. In addition, the Company would be required to revalue the derivative liabilities at the end of each reporting period with the change in value reported on the statement of operations. The Company did not account for these derivative liabilities in its financial statements as it was determined to not be material.
7. RELATED PARTY
Consulting Arrangement with Thomas J. Colatosti (“Colatosti”)
In connection with his appointment to the Board of Directors in September 2002, and as acting Chief Financial Officer from November 2008 to December 2009, the Company had entered into a number of consulting arrangements with Colatosti. Under the most recent arrangement, which expired on December 31, 2011, Mr. Colatosti provided services to the Company and its subsidiary for the two-year term at a rate of $5,000 per month. At both June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, Mr. Colatosti is owed $50,000. The balance owed to Colatosti is included in accounts payable..
8. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company has determined that its continuing operations are one discrete segment consisting of biometric products. Geographically, North American sales accounted for approximately 96% and 86% of the Company’s total sales for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and were approximately 97% and 94% of the Company’s total sales for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
9. FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and notes payable, are carried at, or approximate, fair value because of their short-term nature.
10. MAJOR CUSTOMERS AND ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
The Company had certain customers whose revenue individually represented 10% or more of the Company’s total revenue, or whose accounts receivable balances individually represented 10% or more of the Company’s total accounts receivable, as follows:
For the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, three customers accounted for 51%, and two customers accounted for 86% of revenue, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, two customers accounted for 41%, and four customers accounted for 94% of revenue, respectively.
At June 30, 2013, five customers accounted for 78% of accounts receivable. At December 31, 2012, two customers accounted for 88% of accounts receivable.
11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On July 23, 2013, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with a number of private and institutional investors (the “July Private Investor SPA”). Pursuant to the July Private Investor SPA, the Company issued units to such investors comprising 3,500,006 shares of common stock and 3,500,006 warrants to purchase additional shares of common stock, at a purchase price of $0.30 per unit for an aggregate purchase price of $1,050,000. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.40 per share. If such warrants are exercised in full, the Company would receive gross cash proceeds of approximately $1,400,000. The warrants expire five years after the date of the grant.
In connection with the share issuances described above, the Company estimates to incur costs of approximately $10,000, which will be offset against additional paid-in capital.

OVERVIEW
BIO-key International, Inc. (the “Company,” “BIO-key,” “we,” or “us) was founded in 1993 as a fingerprint biometric technology company. Biometric technology is the science of analyzing specific human characteristics which are unique to each individual in order to identify a specific person from a broader population.
We develop and market advanced fingerprint biometric identification and identity verification technologies, cryptographic authentication-transaction security technologies, as well as related identity management and credentialing software solutions. We were pioneers in developing automated, finger identification technology that supplements or compliments other methods of identification and verification, such as personal inspection identification, passwords, tokens, smart cards, ID cards, PKI, credit card, passports, driver’s licenses, OTP or other form of possession or knowledge-based credentialing. Advanced BIO-key® technology has been and is used to improve both the accuracy and speed of competing finger-based biometrics.
In partnerships with OEMs, integrators, and solution providers, we provide biometric software solutions to private and public sector customers. We provide the ability to positively identify and authenticate individuals before granting access to valuable corporate resources, web portals or applications in seconds. Powered by our patented Vector Segment Technology™ our VST™, WEB-key® and BSP development kits are fingerprint biometric solutions that provide true interoperability with all major reader manufacturers, enabling application developers and integrators to seamlessly integrate fingerprint biometrics into virtually any application.
We have developed what we believe is the most discriminating and effective commercially available finger-based biometric technology. Our primary focus is in marketing and selling this technology into commercial logical and physical privilege entitlement & access control markets. Our primary market focus includes mobile payments & credentialing, online payments and credentialing, and healthcare record and payment data security, among other things. Our secondary focus includes government markets, primarily law enforcement forensic investigation and Homeland Security.
STRATEGIC OUTLOOK
Historically, our largest market has been access control within highly regulated industries such as healthcare. However, we believe the mass adoption of advanced smart-phone and hand-held wireless devices have caused commercial demand for advanced user authentication to emerge as viable. The introduction of smart-phone capabilities, like mobile payments and credentialing, could effectively require biometric user authentication on mobile devices to reduce risks of identity theft, payment fraud and other forms of fraud in the mobile or cellular based world wide web. As more services and payment functionalities, like mobile wallets and near field communication (NFC), migrate to smart-phones, the value and potential risk associated with such systems should grow and drive demand and adoption of advanced user authentication technologies, including fingerprint biometrics and BIO-key solutions.
We believe there is potential for significant market growth in three key areas:
|
● |
corporate network access control, including corporate campuses, computer networks and applications; |
|
● |
consumer mobile credentialing, including mobile payments, credit and payment card programs, data and application access, and commercial loyalty programs; and. |
|
● |
government services and highly regulated industries, including Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, drivers licenses, campus and school ID, passports/visas. |
In the near-term, we expect to grow our business within the government services and highly-regulated industries that we have historically had a strong presence, such as the healthcare industry. We believe that continued heightened security and privacy requirements in these industries will generate increased demand for security solutions, including biometrics.
Over the longer term, we intend to expand our business into the cloud and mobile computing industries. The emergence of cloud computing and mobile computing are primary drivers of commercial and consumer adoption of advanced authentication applications, including biometric and BIO-key authentication capabilities. As the value of assets, services and transactions increases on such networks, we expect that security and user authentication demand should rise proportionately
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
For detailed information on our critical accounting policies and estimates, see our financial statements and notes thereto included in this Report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2012. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
On July 18, 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-11, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists” (“ASU 2013-11”). ASU 2013-11 is expected to reduce diversity in practice by providing guidance on the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits and will better reflect the manner in which an entity would settle at the reporting date any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position when net operating loss carryforwards, similar tax losses, or tax credit carryforwards exist. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of its pending adoption of ASU 2013-11 on its consolidated financial statements.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standard if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Revenues
For the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, service revenues included approximately $178,000 and $168,000, respectively, of recurring maintenance and support revenue, and approximately $80,000 and $450, respectively, of non-recurring custom services revenue. Recurring service revenue increased 6% from 2012 to 2013 as the Company continued to bundle maintenance agreements to its expanding customer license base, and renewed existing maintenance agreements from its legacy customers. The non-recurring custom services increased 177% for custom services revenue from four different customers of which 62% was for a project with InterDigital.
For the three months ended June 30, 2013, license and other revenue (comprised of third party hardware and royalty) decreased 55% from the same period ending June 30, 2012. We realized a decrease of approximately $109,000 (86%) in our core software license revenue primarily as a result of a delay in the implementation of biometrics deployments in the blood bank sector. Blood banks have contributed significant revenue in the past, and since their consolidations, have extended their pre-implementation testing phase. Third-party hardware sales decreased by approximately $116,000 (54%), as a result of decreased demand from an existing OEM partner and decrease in new healthcare deployments. Our royalty income was derived from an OEM agreement, and resulted in a 106% increase in revenue to $47,504 from $22,989 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, due to overages for the quarter.
Costs of goods sold
For the three months ended June 30, 2013, cost of service increased approximately $4,500 due to costs associated with custom services. License and other costs for the three months ended June 30, 2013 decreased approximately $51,000. The decrease is directly associated with the decrease in third party hardware revenue.

Revenues
For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, service revenues included approximately $352,000 and $340,000, respectively, of recurring maintenance and support revenue, and approximately $183,000 and $223,000, respectively, of non-recurring custom services revenue. Recurring service revenue increased 4% from 2012 to 2013 as we continued to bundle maintenance agreements to our expanding customer license base, and renewed existing maintenance agreements from our legacy customers.
For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, license and other revenue (comprised of third party hardware and royalty) decreased as a result of several contributing factors. We realized a decrease of approximately $654,000 (63%) in our core software license revenue primarily as a result of large orders in 2013 equal to 35% of two large orders in 2012. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we shipped orders from McKesson for their continued deployment of our identification technology in their AccuDose® product line, and for continued expansion of biometric ID deployments with commercial partners ChoicePoint /Nexis Lexis, Educational Biometric Technology, Medflow, Davlong and Identimetrics. Third-party hardware sales decreased by approximately $59,000 (20%), as a result of decreased demand from an existing OEM partner and smaller healthcare deployments. Our royalty income was derived from an OEM agreement, and resulted in a 53% increase in revenue to $73,756 from $48,097 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The OEM partner, however, does not expect this upward trend to continue at this rate.
Costs of goods sold
For the six months ended June 30, 2013, cost of service decreased approximately $79,000 from the corresponding period in 2012 due to lower costs associated with non-recurring custom services revenue. License and other costs for the six months ended June 30, 2013 decreased from the corresponding prior year period by approximately $32,000. The decrease is directly associated with the decrease in third party hardware revenue.

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012 consisted of interest on the promissory note issued in 2010.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash Flows
Net cash used in operations during the six months ended June 30, 2013 was approximately $946,000 which includes a one-time fee of approximately $133,000 related to the transactions with InterDigital and DRNC . The cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to the following items:
|
● |
Positive cash flows related to decrease in accounts receivable of approximately $156,000 due to one large order received and paid for in the first quarter, approximately $293,000 for a large receivable, approximately $231,000 in payments received from factored receivables and an overadvance of approximately $49,000; |
|
|
|
|
● |
Negative cash flows related to a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of approximately $688,000 due to working capital management, an increase in prepaid expenses of approximately $13,000 due to prepaid trade shows and software licensing, and a decrease of approximately $133,000 in deferred revenue. |
Net cash provided by investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2013 was approximately $14,000 from the following activities :
|
● |
Negative cash flow for the purchase of capital expenditures |
Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2013 was approximately $975,000 from the following activities :
|
● |
Positive cash flow from the issuance of 9,026,935 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $902,693 and the issuance of a 2013 Note payable in the principal amount of $497,307 |
|
|
|
|
● |
Negative cash flows of $321,000 from the repayment of a 2010 Note payable and approximately $46,000 for the one time fees associated with the stock issuance and approximately $57,000 for one time fees associated with the Note payable. |
Net working capital deficit at June 30, 2013 was approximately $971,000 as compared to approximately $1,447,000 at December 31, 2012. The improvement was driven mainly by the financing activities in the first quarter of 2013.
Capital Resources
Since our inception, our capital needs have been principally met through proceeds from the sale of equity and debt securities. We expect capital expenditures to be less than $100,000 during the next twelve months. We do not currently maintain a line of credit or term loan with any commercial bank or other financial institution.
The following sets forth our primary sources of capital during the previous two years:
Effective December 31, 2010, Thomas Colatosti (“Colatosti”), our Chairman of the Board agreed to exchange all of his outstanding shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, including all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, and the 7% Convertible Promissory Note dated as of December 28, 2009 in the original principal amount of $64,878, for a new non-convertible 7% Secured Promissory Note in the original principal amount of $350,804 (the “Colatosti Note”). In February 2013, the principal balance and accrued interest owing under the Colatosti Note was repaid in full from the proceeds of the financing with InterDigital described below.
On February 26, 2013, we issued a promissory note in the principal amount of $497,307 (the “InterDigital Note”) to DRNC. The InterDigital Note accrues interest at a rate of 7% per annum, with a default rate of 9% per annum while a nonpayment default is continuing, matures on December 31, 2015, is secured by all of our tangible and intangible assets, and is subject to acceleration upon an event of default. Commencing July 1, 2013, we are required to comply with certain financial covenants, including a leverage ratio covenant and an annual limit on capital expenditures other than in the ordinary course of business. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the InterDigital Note was used to repay the Colatosti Note in full, with the remaining proceeds to be used for general corporate purposes. At June 30, 2013, $497,307 remained payable under the InterDigital Note.
On February 26, 2013, we issued 4,026,935 shares of common stock to DRNC for an aggregate purchase price of $402,693. DRNC has anti-dilution rights that require us to issue additional shares to DRNC on a full-ratchet basis if, within the nine months following February 26, 2013, we sell or issue any common stock or common stock equivalents (other than sales or issuances to directors, officers, employees or independent contractors in the ordinary course of business for compensation purposes and stock splits and stock dividends payable in respect of our common stock) at a purchase, exercise or conversion price per share less than $0.10.
On February 26, 2013, we also issued 5,000,000 shares of common stock to a limited number of investors for an aggregate purchase price of $500,000.
On July 23, 2013, we issued units to certain investors consisting of 3,500,006 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase an additional 3,500,006 shares of our common stock at a purchase price $0.30 per unit, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,050,000. The warrants are exercisable at $0.40 per share and expire five years after the date of the grant.
As of December 2011, we entered into a 24-month accounts receivable factoring arrangement with a financial institution (the “Factor”). Pursuant to the terms of this arrangement, from time to time, we sell to the Factor certain of our accounts receivable balances on a non-recourse basis for credit approved accounts. The Factor remits 75% of the accounts receivable balance to us (the “Advance Amount”), with the remaining balance, less fees payable by us, once the Factor collects the full accounts receivable balance from the customer. Factoring fees range from 2.75% to 15% of the face value of the invoice factored and are determined by the number of days required for collection of the invoice. In April 2012, the terms were updated from monthly to quarterly, and the 24-month arrangement was extended to August 1, 2014. We expect to continue to use this factoring arrangement periodically to assist with our general working capital requirements.
Liquidity outlook
At June 30, 2013, our total cash and cash equivalents were approximately $100,000, as compared to approximately $84,000 at December 31, 2012.
As discussed above, we have historically financed our operations through access to the capital markets by issuing secured and convertible debt securities, convertible preferred stock, common stock, and recently through factoring receivables. We currently require approximately $390,000 per month to conduct our operations, a monthly amount that we have been unable to consistently achieve through revenue generation. During the first half of 2013, we generated approximately $1,227,000 of revenue, which is below our average monthly requirements.
If we are unable to generate sufficient revenue to meet our goals, we will need to obtain additional third-party financing to (i) conduct the sales, marketing and technical support necessary to execute our plan to substantially grow operations, increase revenue and serve a significant customer base; and (ii) provide working capital. Therefore, we may need to obtain additional financing through the issuance of debt or equity securities, or to restructure our financial position through transactions similar to those consummated during the 2009 to 2013 period.
Due to several factors, including our history of losses and limited revenue, our independent auditors have included an explanatory paragraph in their opinion related to our annual financial statements as to the substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our long-term viability and growth will depend upon the successful commercialization of our technologies and our ability to obtain adequate financing. To the extent that we require such additional financing, no assurance can be given that any form of additional financing will be available on terms acceptable to us, that adequate financing will be obtained to meet our needs, or that such financing would not be dilutive to existing stockholders. If available financing is insufficient or unavailable or we fail to continue to generate sufficient revenue, we may be required to further reduce operating expenses, delay the expansion of operations, be unable to pursue merger or acquisition candidates, or continue as a going concern.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2013. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2013, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2013, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
