NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business

Applied UV, Inc. (the “Parent”) was formed and incorporated in the State of Delaware for the intended purpose of holding the equity of SteriLumen, Inc. (“SteriLumen”), MunnWorks, LLC (“MunnWorks” and together with SteriLumen, the “Subsidiaries”) and other companies acquired or created by the Parent in the future. The Parent acquired the Subsidiaries pursuant to three share exchanges whereby the equity holders of the Subsidiaries exchanged all of their equity interests in the Subsidiaries for shares of voting stock of the Parent. As a result of the share exchanges, each Subsidiary became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Parent. The Parent and each Subsidiary are collectively referred to herein as (the “Company”).

SteriLumen is engaged in the design, manufacture, assembly and distribution of (i) automated disinfecting mirror systems for use in hospitals and other healthcare facilities and (ii) air purification systems through its purchase of substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of Akida Holdings, LLC, KES Science & Technology, and Scientific Air Management LLC, as described below. MunnWorks, LLC is engaged in the manufacture of fine mirrors and furniture specifically for the hospitality industry.

In February of 2021, the Company acquired all the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Akida Holdings, LLC (“Akida”). At the time of this acquisition, Akida owned the Airocide™ system of air purification technologies, originally developed for NASA, with assistance from the University of Wisconsin at Madison, that uses a combination of UVC and a proprietary, titanium dioxide based photocatalyst that may help to accelerate the reopening of the global economy with applications in the hospitality, hotel, healthcare, nursing homes, grocer, wine, commercial buildings and retail sectors. The Airocide™ system has been used by brands and organizations such as NASA, Whole Foods, Dole, Chiquita, Opus One, Sub-Zero Refrigerators and Robert Mondavi Wines. Akida contracted KES Science & Technology, Inc. (“KES”) to manufacture, warehouse and distribute the Airocide™ system and Akida’s contractual relationship with KES was assigned to and assumed by the Company as part of the acquisition.

On September 28, 2021, the Company acquired all the assets and assumed certain liabilities of KES. At the time of the acquisition, KES was principally engaged in the manufacturing and distribution of the Airocide™ system of air purification technologies and misting systems. KES also had the exclusive right to the sale and distribution of the Airocide™ system in certain markets. This acquisition consolidates all of manufacturing, sale and distribution of the Airocide™ system under the SteriLumen brand and expands the Company’s market presence in food distribution, post-harvest produce, wineries, and retail sectors. The Company sells its products throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe.

On October 13, 2021, the Company acquired all the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Scientific Air Management LLC, (“SciAir”). SciAir is a provider of whole-room, aerosol chamber and laboratory certified air disinfection machines. SciAir is a provider of whole-room, aerosol chamber and laboratory certified air disinfection machines that use a combination of UVC and a proprietary, patented system to eliminate airborne bacteria, mold, fungi, viruses, volatile organic compounds, and many odors without producing any harmful by-products. The units are well suited for larger spaces within a facility and are mobile with industrial grade casters allowing for movement throughout a facility to address increased bio burden from larger meetings or increased human traffic.

On March 25, 2022, the Company acquired the assets and assumed certain liabilities of VisionMark, LLC, (“Visionmark”). Visionmark is engaged in the business of manufacturing furniture using wood and metal components for the hospitality and retail industries. Visionmark will be included as a component of our hospitality segment.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Applied UV, Inc., Munnworks, LLC and SteriLumen, Inc. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. 

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) set forth in Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited interim financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Unaudited interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year. These financial statements should be read along with the Annual Report filed of the Company for the annual period ended December 31, 2021. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year then ended.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, as of the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the valuation and accounting for equity awards related to warrants and stock-based compensation, determination of fair value for derivative instruments, the accounting for business combinations and allocating purchase price and estimating the useful life of intangible assets.

Cash, Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and equivalents include highly liquid investments that have original maturities less than 90 days at the time of their purchase. These investments are carried at cost, which approximates market value because of their short maturities. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $714,447 and $1,076,664, respectively, in cash equivalents. The Company also maintains a restricted cash balance to satisfy its preferred shareholder redemption requirements (Refer to Note 7).

Accounts receivable

An allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable is recorded when management believes the collectability of the accounts receivable is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. The allowance is determined based on management’s review of the debtor’s ability to repay and repayment history, aging history, and estimated value of collateral, if any. The Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts approximating $104,000 and $9,000 as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Inventory

Inventories, which consists of raw materials and finished goods is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) valuation method. Inventory costs are comprised primarily of product, freight and duty. The Company writes down inventory for estimated obsolescence equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. The company had a reserve for inventory approximating $146,000 and $140,000 as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation of furniture and fixtures is provided using the straight-line method, generally over the terms of the lease. Repairs and maintenance expenditures, which do not extend the useful lives of the related assets, are expensed as incurred. Depreciation of machinery and equipment is based on the estimated useful lives of the assets.

       
    Years
Machinery and equipment     5-7  
Leasehold improvements     Lesser of term of lease or useful life  
Furniture and fixtures     7  

Business Acquisition Accounting

The Company applies the acquisition method of accounting for those that meet the criteria of a business combination. The Company allocates the purchase price of its business acquisitions based on the fair value of identifiable tangible and intangible assets. The difference between the total cost of the acquisition and the sum of the fair values of acquired tangible and identifiable intangible assets less liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred in general and administrative expenses.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The Company has recorded intangible assets, including goodwill, in connection with business combinations. Estimated useful lives of amortizable intangible assets are determined by management based on an assessment of the period over which the asset is expected to contribute to future cash flows.

In accordance with U.S. GAAP for goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangibles, the Company tests these assets for impairment annually and whenever events or circumstances make it more likely than not that impairment may have occurred. For the purposes of that assessment, the Company has determined to assign assets acquired in business combinations to a single reporting unit including all goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets acquired in business combinations.

Income Taxes

The Company files income tax returns using the cash basis of accounting. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Current income taxes are based on the year’s income taxable for federal and state tax reporting purposes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.

Derivative Instruments

The Company evaluates its warrants to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives. The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the embedded derivative is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the statements of operations as other income or expense.

The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. The Company has concluded that there are no such reclassifications required to be made as of and for the periods ended March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes valuation model to value the derivative warrants as stipulated in the agreement for the warrant holders to receive cash based on that value.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets for loans payable approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of the financial instruments. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy.

Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders (the numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) for the period. In periods of losses, diluted loss per share is computed on the same basis as basic loss per share as the inclusion of any other potential shares outstanding would be anti-dilutive.

The following table sets forth the number of potential shares of common stock that have been excluded from diluted net loss per share because their effect was anti-dilutive:

Schedule of Anti-dilutive Securities Excluded from Computation of Earnings Per Share:
 
               
    As of March 31,
    2022   2021
Common stock options     833,314       446,314  
Common stock warrants     192,419       192,419  
Total     1,025,733       638,733  

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation awards in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (“ASC”), Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 requires all stock-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options and restricted stock and modifications to existing stock options, to be recognized in the statements of operations based on their fair values over the requisite service period.

Research and Development

The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research and Development (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when the performance obligations in the client contract has been achieved. A performance obligation is a contractual promise to transfer product to the customer. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when or as, the customer receives the benefit of the performance obligation. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of goods in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods. To achieve this core principle, the Company applies the following five steps:

1) Identify the contract with a customer.
2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract.
3) Determine the transaction price.
4) Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract.
5) Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

For projects, that are completed within the Company’s facilities, both in Mt. Vernon and Brooklyn NY, the company designs, manufactures and sells custom mirrors and furniture for the hospitality industry through contractual agreements. These sales require the company to deliver the products within three to nine months from commencement of order acceptance. The Company may be entitled to receive an advance payment, which is recognized as a contract liability and included in deferred revenue for the amount in excess of the revenue recognized. If work is performed in excess of amounts billed, the amount is recognized as a contract asset and included in costs and estimated earnings more than billings.

The company applied the five-step model to the sales of Akida’s and KES’s Airocide and misting system products, and SciAir’s whole-room aerosol chamber and laboratory certified air disinfection machines. At contract inception and once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within each contract and determines those that are performance obligations and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company sells Airocide air sterilization units, misting systems, and whole-room aerosol chamber and laboratory certified disinfection machines to both consumer and commercial customers. These products are sold both domestically and internationally. The cycle from contract inception to shipment of products is typically one day to three months. The Company’s contracts for both its consumer and commercial customers each contain a single performance obligation (delivery of Airocide, KES, and SciAir products), as the promise to transfer the individual goods or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts and, therefore, not distinct. As a result, the entire transaction price is allocated to this single performance obligation. The Company recognizes revenues at a point in time when the customer obtains control of the Company’s product, which typically occurs upon shipment of the product by the Company or upon customer pick-up via third party common carrier.

Advertising

Advertising costs consist primarily of online search advertising and placement, trade shows, advertising fees, and other promotional expenses. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in sales and marketing on the consolidated statements of operations. Advertising expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $197,995 and $28,176.

Vendor deposits

Vendor payments to third manufactures are capitalized until completion of the project and are recorded as vendor deposits. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the vendor deposit balance was $372,972 and $992,041, respectively.

Patent Costs

The Company capitalizes costs consisting principally of outside legal costs and filing fees related to obtaining and maintaining patents. The Company amortizes patent costs over the useful life of the patent which is typically 20 years, beginning with the date the patent is filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or foreign equivalent. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, capitalized patent costs net of accumulated amortization was $1,668,789 and $1,693,124, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded $25,016 and $2,464, respectively, of amortization expense for these patents.

Recently adopted accounting standards:

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470 50), Compensation Stock Based Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815 40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity Classified Written Call Options. This ASU provides guidance which clarified an issuer’s accounting for modification or exchanges of freestanding equity classified written call options that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. The provisions of ASU No. 2021-04 are effective January 1, 2022. This ASU shall be applied on a prospective basis. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

In June 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). This standard eliminates the beneficial conversion and cash conversion accounting models for convertible instruments. It also amends the accounting for certain contracts in an entity’s own equity that are currently accounted for as derivatives because of specific settlement provisions. In addition, the new guidance modifies how particular convertible instruments and certain contracts that may be settled in cash or shares impact the diluted EPS computation. For public business entities, it is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years using the fully retrospective or modified retrospective method. Early adoption is permitted but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740) (“ASU 2019-12”): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The new standard eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences related to changes in ownership of equity method investments and foreign subsidiaries. The guidance also simplifies aspects of accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. For public business entities, it is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The FASB subsequently issued amendments to ASU 2016-13, which have the same effective date and transition date of January 1, 2023. These standards replace the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected credit loss model and requires a financial asset measure at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The Company does not expect this change in guidance to have a material impact to its financial statements.

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that the Company adopts as of the specified effective date. The Company does not believe that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

NOTE 2 – BUSINESS ACQUISITION

The Company accounted for the acquisitions as a business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting as prescribed in Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) and ASC 820 – Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). In accordance with ASC 805 and ASC 820, the Company used its best estimates and assumptions to accurately assign fair value to the tangible assets acquired, identifiable intangible assets and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition dates. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The results of operations of the acquired businesses since the date of acquisition are included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. The total purchase consideration was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition, as determined by management. The excess of the purchase price over the amounts allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill. The value of the goodwill from the acquisitions described below can be attributed to a number of business factors including, but not limited to, cost synergies expected to be realized and a trained technical workforce.

In conjunction with acquisitions noted below, we used various valuation techniques to determine fair value of the assets acquired, with the primary techniques being discounted cash flow analysis, relief-from-royalty, a form of the multi-period excess earnings and the with-and-without valuation approaches, which use significant unobservable inputs, or Level 3 inputs, as defined by the fair value hierarchy. Inputs to these valuation approaches require significant judgment including: (i) forecasted sales, growth rates and customer attrition rates, (ii) forecasted operating margins, (iii) royalty rates and discount rates used to present value future cash flows, (iv) the amount of synergies expected from the acquisition, (v) the economic useful life of assets and (vi) the evaluation of historical tax positions. In certain acquisitions, historical data is limited, therefore, we base our estimates and assumptions on budgets, business plans, economic projections, anticipated future cash flows and marketplace data.

The excess purchase price has been recorded as goodwill in the amount of approximately $1,138,203. The estimated useful life of the identifiable intangible assets (see note 5) is ten years. The goodwill is amortizable for tax purposes.

On March 31, 2022, there was a settlement of a dispute that arose during the first quarter of 2022 between both parties regarding certain representations and warranties in the purchase agreement which resulted in a settlement and mutual release agreement where the seller agreed to relinquish any right, title, and interest in the previously issued 400,000 shares. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the company recorded a loss on change in fair market value of contingent consideration of $240,000 and, as a result of the settlement agreement, the company recorded a gain on settlement of contingent consideration of $1,700,000 . The Company also determined that a triggering event had occurred as a result of the settlement agreement. A quantitative impairment test on the goodwill determined that the fair value was below the carrying value and as a result the Company recorded a full goodwill impairment charge of $1,138,203 on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

On March 25, 2022, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement by and among the Company, Munnworks, LLC., a New York Limited Liability Company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Purchaser”) and VisionMark LLC, a New York limited liability company (the “Seller”), pursuant to which the Purchaser acquired substantially all of the assets of the Seller in exchange for the assumption of obligations of buyer under the sublease and sublease guarantee.

NOTE 7 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (CONTINUED)

Pursuant to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as amended, the Company is authorized to designate and issue up to 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, in one or more classes or series. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company had 10,000 preferred shares designated as Series X Preferred Stock and 19,990,000 shares of preferred stock designated as 10.5% Series A Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”). There are 552,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2021. Upon certain events, the Company may, subject to certain conditions, at the Company’s option, redeem the Series A Preferred Stock. See below for a further description of the Series A Preferred Stock:

Dividends: Holders are entitled to receive, cumulative cash dividends at the annual rate of 10.5% on $25.00 liquidation preference per share of the Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock. Dividends accrue and are payable in arrears beginning August 15, 2021, regardless of whether declared or there are sufficient earnings or funds available for payment. Sufficient net proceeds from the offering must be set aside to pay dividends for the first twelve months from issuance. The company has classified $483,000 and $845,250 as restricted cash as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, as a reserve to pay the remaining required dividends for the first year.

Redemption: Company has an optional redemption right beginning July 16, 2022, which redemption price declines annually. The initial redemption price after year 1 is $30 and decreases annually over 5 years to $25 per share. The Company also has a special optional redemption right upon the occurrence of a Delisting Event or Change of Control, as defined, at $25 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends.

Voting Rights: The holders have no voting rights, except for voting on certain corporate decisions, or upon default in payment of dividends for any twelve periods, in which case the holders would have voting rights to elect two additional directors to serve on the Board of Directors.

Conversion Rights: Such shares are not convertible unless and until the occurrence of a Delisting Event or Change of Control and when the Company has not exercised its special optional redemption right. The conversion price would be the lesser of the amount converted based on the $25.00 liquidation preference plus accrued dividends divided by the common stock price of the Delisting Event or Change of Control (as defined) or $5.353319 (Share Cap). Effectively, the Share Cap limits the common stock price to no lower than $4.67.

2020 Incentive Plan

On March 31, 2020, the Company adopted the Applied UV, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) with 600,000 (post-split adjusted) shares of common stock available for issuance under the terms of the Plan. The Plan permits the granting of Nonqualified Stock Options, Incentive Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares, Performance Units and Other Awards. The objectives of the Plan are to optimize the profitability and growth of the Company through incentives that are consistent with the Company’s goals and that link the personal interests of Participants to those of the Company’s stockholders. The Plan is further intended to provide flexibility to the Company in its ability to motivate, attract and retain the services of Participants who make or are expected to make significant contributions to the Company’s success and to allow Participants to share in the success of the Company. From time to time, the Company may issue Incentive Awards pursuant to the Plan. Each of the awards will be evidenced by and issued under a written agreement.

2020 Incentive Plan (Continued)

If an incentive award granted under the Plan expires, terminates, is unexercised or is forfeited, or if any shares are surrendered to the company in connection with an incentive award, the shares subject to such award and the surrendered shares will become available for future awards under the Plan. The number of shares subject to the Plan, and the number of shares and terms of any Incentive Award may be adjusted in the event of any change in our outstanding common stock by reason of any stock dividend, spin-off, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, liquidation, business combination or exchange of shares, or similar transaction. There are 78,000 shares available for future grants under the plan. The Company also granted an additional 309,835 options outside of the plan during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Share-based compensation expense for options totaling $222,062 and $20,516 was recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, based on requisite service periods.

The valuation methodology used to determine the fair value of the options issued during the year was the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes model requires the use of a number of assumptions including volatility of the stock price, the average risk-free interest rate, and the weighted average expected life of the options.

The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates on zero coupon U.S. Treasury bonds whose maturity period is appropriate for the term of the options.

NOTE 7– STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (CONTINUED)

Estimated volatility is a measure of the amount by which the Company’s stock price is expected to fluctuate each year during the expected life of the award. The Company’s calculation of estimated volatility is based on historical stock prices of peer entities over a period equal to the expected life of the awards. The Company uses the historical volatility of peer entities due to the lack of sufficient historical data of its stock price.

As of March 31, 2022, there was $2,117,308 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested employee options granted under the Company’s share-based compensation plans that is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.7 years.

The weighted average fair value of options granted, and the assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 are set forth in the table below.

Schedule of Share-based Payment Award, Stock Options, Valuation Assumptions                
    2022   2021

NOTE 7 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (CONTINUED)

The warrants issued in connection with the November 2020 offering contained a cash settlement feature which resulted in a warrant liability of $24,435 and $68,262 as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. In connection with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized an error relating to the recognition of the initial warrant liability in November of 2020. The error caused additional paid in capital to be overstated by approximately $135,000, warrant liability to be understated by approximately $110,000, and net loss to be overstated by approximately $25,000 as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020. The Company concluded the impact on the interim and year ended December 31, 2020 financial statements was immaterial and corrected the balances as of December 31, 2021. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recorded a gain (loss) on the change in fair value of warrant liability in the amount of $43,828 and ($311,400), respectively.

NOTE 8 - LEASING ARRANGEMENTS

The Company determines whether an arrangement qualifies as a lease under ASC 842 at inception. The Company has operating leases for office space and office equipment. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of one year to seven years, some of which include options to extend the lease term for up to five years. The Company considered these options to extend in determining the lease term used to establish the Company’s right-of use assets and lease liabilities once reasonably certain of exercise. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made in advance of lease commencement and excludes lease incentives. The lease terms used in the calculations of the operating ROU assets and operating lease liabilities include options to extend or terminate the lease when the Company is reasonably certain that it will exercise those options. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate of 7.6% based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.

Munnworks, LLC entered into a lease agreement in Mount Vernon, New York for a term that commenced on April 1, 2019 and will expire on the 31st day of March 2024 at a monthly rate of $13,400. In March of 2021, the Company obtained additional lease space and the agreement was amended to increase rent expense to $15,000 per month. On July 1, 2021, the Company again obtained additional lease space and rent expense was increased to $27,500 per month through July 1, 2024 and $29,150 per month from July 1, 2024 through July 1, 2026.

On September 28, 2021, the Company entered into a lease agreement in Kennesaw, Georgia for office and production space for a term that commenced on September 29, 2021 and will expire on October 1, 2024, with a rate ranging from $14,729 to $15,626 per month.

Rent expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $101,799 and $41,800, respectively.

Schedule maturities of operating lease liabilities outstanding as of March 31, 2022 are as follows:

         
2022     $ 381,384  
2023       513,413  
2024       470,532  
2025       349,800  
Thereafter...       174,900  
Total lease payments       1,890,029  
Less: Imputed Interest       (248,414 )
Present value of future minimum lease payments     $ 1,641,615  

Consistent with ASC 842-20-50-4, the Company calculated its total lease cost based solely on its monthly rent obligation. The Company had no cash flows arising from its lease, no finance lease cost, short term lease cost, or variable lease costs. The Company’s lease does not produce any sublease income, or any net gain or loss recognized from sale and leaseback transactions. As a result, the Company did not need to segregate amounts between finance and operating leases for cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities, segregated between operating and financing cash flows; supplemental non-cash information on lease liabilities arising from obtaining right-of-use assets; weighted-average calculations for the remaining lease term; or the weighted-average discount rate.

NOTE 9 - PAYROLL PROTECTION PROGRAM

In April of 2020, the Company submitted a Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) application to Chase Bank for a loan amount equal to $296,827. The amount was approved, and the Company has received the funds. The PPP Loan, which is in the form of a PPP promissory note and agreement, matures in April of 2025 and bears interest at a rate of 1.00% per annum. The Lender will have 90 days to review borrower’s forgiveness application and the SBA will have an additional 60 days to review the Lender’s decision as to whether the borrower’s loan may be forgiven. Under the CARES Act, loan forgiveness is available for the sum of documented payroll costs, covered rent payments, covered utilities, and certain covered mortgage interest payments during the twenty-four-week period beginning on the date of first disbursement of the PPP Loan. For purposes of the CARES Act, payroll costs exclude compensation of an individual employee earning more than $100,000, prorated annually. Not more than 40% of the forgiven amount may be for non-payroll costs. Forgiveness is reduced if full-time headcount declines, or if salaries and wages for employees with salaries of $100,000 or less annually are reduced by more than 25%. The loan was forgiven in July of 2021 and in accordance with ASC 470, the amount was recorded as other income.

NOTE 10- NOTE RECEIVABLE- RELATED PARTY

The company contemplated an acquisition with an entity where certain board members of the Company were also board members of the potential acquiree. In February of 2021, the Company entered into a non-interest bearing note receivable agreement whereby the Company loaned $500,000 to the entity. The note receivable was recorded at cost basis which approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of the instrument. The loan matures on the earlier of (i) 180 days from the issuance date or (ii) the closing of the transactions set forth in a definitive acquisition entered into between the lender and the borrower. In the event the loan is paid in full on or before the maturity date, there shall be no interest accrued or payable on the outstanding principal amount. If an acquisition occurs, the $500,000 will be applied against the total acquisition price. If the company decides not to execute a definitive agreement within 180 days from the issuance date, the maturity date shall be the one-year anniversary of the issuance date. The maturity date has since been extended to November 30, 2021. The acquisition did not occur and the full amount of $500,000 was repaid on November 30, 2021.

NOTE 11 - SEGMENT REPORTING

FASB Codification Topic 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for reporting financial and descriptive information about an enterprise’s reportable segments. The Company has two reportable segments: the design, manufacture, assembly and distribution of disinfecting systems for use in healthcare, hospitality, and commercial municipal and residential markets (disinfectant segment) and the manufacture of fine mirrors specifically for the hospitality industry (hospitality segment). The segments are determined based on several factors, including the nature of products and services, the nature of production processes, customer base, delivery channels and similar economic characteristics.

An operating segment’s performance is evaluated based on its pre-tax operating contribution, or segment income. Segment income is defined as net sales less cost of sales, segment selling, general and administrative expenses, research and development costs and stock-based compensation. It does not include other charges (income), net and interest and other, net.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Certain statements made in this prospectus are “forward-looking statements” regarding the plans and objectives of management for future operations. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements of the “Company” to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. The Company’s plans and objectives are based, in part, on assumptions involving the continued expansion of business. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Although the Company believes its assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove inaccurate and therefore, there can be no assurance the forward-looking statements included in this prospectus will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” and in other parts of this prospectus. Our fiscal year ends on December 31.

Overview

Applied UV is focused on the development and acquisition of technology that addresses infection control in the healthcare, hospitality, commercial and municipal markets. The Company has two wholly owned subsidiaries - SteriLumen, Inc. (“SteriLumen”) and MunnWorks, LLC (“MunnWorks”).

SteriLumen’s connected platform for Data Driven Disinfection™ applies the power of ultraviolet light (UVC) to destroy pathogens safely, thoroughly, and automatically, addressing the challenge of healthcare-acquired infections (“HAIs”). Targeted for use in facilities that have high customer turnover such as hospitals, hotels, commercial facilities, and other public spaces, the Company’s Lumicide™ platform uses UVC LEDs in several patented designs for infection control in and around high-traffic areas, including sinks and restrooms, killing bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens residing on hard surfaces within the devices’ proximity. The Company’s patented in-drain disinfection device, Lumicide Drain, is the only product on the market that addresses this critical pathogen-intensive location.

SteriLumen’s Airocide® air purification devices are research backed, clinically proven and developed for NASA with assistance from the University of Wisconsin. Airocide® is listed as an FDA Class II Medical device, utilizes a proprietary photocatalytic (PCO) bioconversion technology that draws air into a reaction chamber that converts damaging molds, microorganisms, dangerous airborne pathogens, destructive VOCs, allergens, odors and biological gasses into harmless water vapor and green carbon dioxide without producing ozone or other harmful byproducts. Airocide® applications include healthcare, hospitality, grocery chains, wine making facilities, commercial real estate, schools, dental offices, post-harvest, grocery, food processing, storage and transportation, cannabis facilities, and homes.

SteriLumen’s Scientific Air product was developed initially for healthcare facilities and is helping hospitals across the country address the growing need for effective and safe airborne infection prevention. Utilizing Scientific Air systems, hospitals report significant reductions in viable airborne pathogens as well as significant declines in non-viable particulates including elimination of odor and VOC’s. Scientific Air products produce no harmful by-products, provide rapid, portable, whole-room disinfection via a patented 3-phase design, are safe and fast-acting in occupied spaces, and have been proven and tested in facilities with EPA and FDA guidance compliance.

According to Resource and Markets, the UV Disinfection market is expected to reach $9 billion by 2026 as technology continues to improve and the focus on stopping the spread of contagious diseases increases. The Center for Disease Control states that 1 in 25 patients have at least one Hospital Associated Infection (HAI) annually and that 3 million serious infections occur every year in long-term care facilities. Scientists globally have been advocating improving air quality post pandemic, significantly boosting global adoption to control airborne pathogen transmission. Governments globally mandating health agencies to address air quality via grants and mechanisms to ease visitation and protect facilities against future pathogens (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services CMS) February 2022 Long-term Care Initiative.

 28 

 

Indoor air quality has become an even more important issue as world economies start the recovery process. In 2021, 39 scientists reiterated the need for a “paradigm shift” and called for improvements in, “how we view and address the transmission of respiratory infections to protect against unnecessary suffering and economic losses.”

In addition to this, the global air purifier market size is set to grow exponentially. It was valued at $9.24 billion in 2021 and is predicted to grow to approximately $22.84 billion by 2030. According to Precedence Research, the immense demand for air purification and sterilization in the US will be driven by the commercial sector.

SteriLumen’s product portfolio is one of the only research-backed, clinically proven pure-play air and surface disinfection technology companies with international distribution and globally recognized end users, with product developed for NASA. In addition to the numerous recognized research institutions and globally recognized names who published the reports that were completed by the acquired companies, Airocide was independently proven to kill SARS, MRSA and Anthrax, in addition to removing damaging molds, microorganisms, destructive VOC’s, allergens, odors, and biological gases. Also, SteriLumen’s air purification (Airocide) and surface disinfection (Lumicide) were independently tested and proven to kill both Candida Auris (Resinnova Laboratories) and SARS CoV-2 (COVID-19) (MRIGlobal).

SteriLumen’s product portfolio is used by globally recognized names including: Walmart, Whole Foods, SuperValue, Delmonte, Esmeralda, Joel Gott Wines, Opus One, Athena Healthcare, NYC Health and Hospitals, Kaiser Permanente, Advent Health, University Rochester Medical Center and Baptist Health South Florida. This past year, the SteriLumen product portfolio expanded its reach and deployed its air purification products into Boston Red Sox Fenway Park and Jet Blue Park, The Palace Versaille , Uruguayan School Systems, Tennessee Department of Corrections, Armed Forces Research Institute of Medical Sciences (AFRIMS), US Army Aberdeen Proving Grounds and Schools throughout South Korea.

The Company works with a global base of distributors to sell both SteriLumen air purification and disinfection products and the MunnWorks product lines. The past year, the Company has signed distribution agreements covering Africa (360BioPharma), US Healthcare (Axis), Lootah Batta Water and Environment Sign Exclusive Distribution Agreement for Airocide(R) Air Purification Systems for the United Arab Emirates, and Plandent a wholly owned subsidiary of Planmeca Oy (Scandinavia). SteriLumen plans to continue to expand its global distribution base of significant breadth and scale to introduce the entire SteriLumen’s air purification product lines to new markets, including building management, commercial real estate, retail, healthcare, cannabis and environmental health and safety, leveraging the networks of the recent acquisitions described above.

MunnWorks is a manufacturer of custom designed fine mirrors and furniture specifically for the hospitality industry with one manufacturing facility in Mount Vernon, New York and, with the acquisition of the assets of VisionMark, another manufacturing facility in Brooklyn, New York. Our goal is to contribute to the creation of what our design industry clients seek: manufacturing better framed mirrors and furniture on budget and on time. As part of our long-term strategy, the Company has instituted multi-site production for high-value items, complicated designs and finishes. Our headquarters in Mount Vernon, NY serves as the center for multi-country manufacturing. The Company works with a satellite network of artisans and craftsmen, including gilders, carvers, and old-world finishers.

Acquisitions

In February of 2021, the Company acquired all the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Akida Holdings, LLC (“Akida”). At the time of the acquisition, Akida owned the Airocide™ system of air purification technologies, originally developed for NASA with assistance from the University of Wisconsin at Madison, that uses a combination of UVC and a proprietary, titanium dioxide based photocatalyst that may help to accelerate the reopening of the global economy with applications in the hospitality, hotel, healthcare, nursing homes, grocer, wine, commercial buildings and retail sectors. The Airocide™ system has been used by brands such as NASA, Whole Foods, Dole, Chiquita, Opus One, Sub-Zero Refrigerators and Robert Mondavi Wines. Akida had contracted KES Science & Technology, Inc. (“KES”) to manufacture, warehouse and distribute the Airocide™ system and Akida’s contractual relationship with KES was assigned to and assumed by the Company as part of the acquisition.

On September 28, 2021, the Company acquired all the assets and assumed certain liabilities of KES. At the time of the acquisition, KES was principally engaged in the manufacturing and distribution of the Airocide™ system of air purification technologies and misting systems. KES also had the exclusive right to the sale and distribution of the Airocide™ system in certain markets. This acquisition consolidates all of manufacturing, sale and distribution of the Airocide™ system under the SteriLumen brand and expands the Company’s market presence in food distribution, post-harvest produce, wineries, and retail sectors. The Company sells its products throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe.

On October 13, 2021, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Old SAM Partners, LLC F/K/A Scientific Air Management, LLC, which owned a line of air purification technologies (“Scientific Air’) for a purchase price of $9.5 million in cash and 200,000 fully vested shares of our Common Stock (the “Vested Shares”) and 200,000 shares of our Common Stock that are subject to vesting (the “Earnout Shares”) (the “Scientific Air Acquisition”). The number of shares of Common Stock included in the purchase price was based on a per share value of $10.00. Scientific Air is a provider of whole-room, aerosol chamber and laboratory certified air disinfection machines that use a combination of UVC and a proprietary, patented system to eliminate airborne bacteria, mold, fungi, viruses, volatile organic compounds, and many odors without producing any harmful by-products. The units are well suited for larger spaces within a facility and are mobile with industrial grade casters allowing for movement throughout a facility to address increased bio burdern from larger meetings or increased human traffic.

The Company utilizes Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, to assist in analyzing our segment operating performance by removing the impact of certain key items that management believes do not directly reflect our underlying operations. In addition, we consider certain non-GAAP (or “adjusted”) measures to be useful to management and investors evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented, and provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations, liquidity, and management of assets. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital. These adjusted metrics are consistent with how management views our business and are used to make financial, operating and planning decisions. These metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for revenues, operating income, net income (loss), earnings (loss) per share (basic and diluted) or net cash from operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as Operating Profit (Loss), excluding Depreciation and Amortization, and excluding Stock Based Compensation and Loss on Impairment of Goodwill. Adjusted EBITDA was a loss of ($1,255,695) for the three months ended March 31, 2022, which was an increase of ($845,649) as compared to the three ended March 31, 2021. By segment, Hospitality decreased ($269,293), Disinfection decreased ($207,427) and Corporate decreased ($368,929).

Segments

The Company has three reportable segments: the design, manufacture, assembly and distribution of disinfecting systems for use in healthcare, hospitality, and commercial municipal and residential markets (Disinfection segment); the manufacture of fine mirrors and furniture specifically for the Hospitality industry (hospitality segment); and the Corporate Segment, which includes expenses primarily related to corporate governance, such as board fees, legal expenses, audit fees, executive management, and listing costs. See NOTE 11 – Segment Reporting.

Net Sales

Net sales of $3,356,090 represented an increase of $1,043,475, or 45.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to net sales of $2,312,615 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase was primarily attributable to the Disinfection segment, which increased $1,202,076, largely as a result of the strategic acquisitions of KES and Scientific Air in Q3 and Q4 of 2021, respectively. The Hospitality segment decreased ($158,601) primarily due to supply chain disruptions, with multiple order fulfilments delayed into Q2 of 2022.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased $224,833, or 24.3%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, driven primarily by volume growth from the Disinfection segment. However, gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased (5.7%) from 39.9% in Q1 of 2021 to 34.2% in Q1 of 2022, driven primarily by customer mix in the Disinfection segment and by lower sales, an increase in factory overhead absorption, and higher logistical costs in the Hospitality segment. As the Company continues to integrate their strategic acquisitions, the focus will be on realizing cost synergies from the consolidation and streamlining of the manufacturing and distribution operations.

Operating Expenses

Selling, General, and Administrative – S,G&A costs for the three months ended March 31, 2022, increased to $2,813,226 as compared to $1,390,776 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This increase of $1.4 million was driven primarily by the expansion of the Disinfection segment with the additional acquisitions of KES and SciAir. Payroll costs increased $0.3 million year over year as headcount increased from 31 at March 31, 2021 to 89 at March 31, 2022. Consulting, accounting, and legal costs increased $0.3 million, and amortization expense, mostly related to the intangible assets associated with the acquisitions, increased $0.3 million. Additional increases were due to advertising and marketing $0.2 million, and bad debt expense of $0.1 million. We anticipate efficiency gains in the coming year as we fully integrate our acquisitions and leverage synergies where practical.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s 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”)) as of March 31, 2022. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of March 31, 2022, due to the existence of the material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting described below, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Financial Officer is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by our Board, senior management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. We continue to review our internal control over financial reporting and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and to ensure that our systems evolve with our business.

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in “Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on the control deficiencies identified during this evaluation and set forth below, our senior management has concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2022 due to the existence of a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as described below.

As set forth below, management will continue to take steps to remediate the control deficiencies identified below. Notwithstanding the control deficiencies described below, we have performed additional analyses and other procedures to enable management to conclude that our consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition and results of operations as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

 33 

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal controls over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The Company’s management has developed a remediation plan to address the material weakness and as of January 1, 2021 began using a new cloud-based software which tracks the progress of jobs and more accurately reflects the percentage of job completeness ensure such revenue is recognized in the appropriate period. In addition, the Company intends to further remediate the deficiency by performing the following:

  design and implement additional internal controls and policies to ensure that we routinely review and document our application of established significant accounting policies; and
  implement additional systems and technologies to enhance the timeliness and reliability of financial data within the organization.
  continue to engage third-party subject matter experts to aid in identifying and applying US GAAP rules related to complex financial instruments as well as to enhance the financial reporting function.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
