ZGSI Zero Gravity Solutions Inc (CE)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of operations

Zero Gravity Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) is a biotechnology company focused on commercializing technology derived from and designed for spaceflight with significant applications on Earth. These technologies are focused on improving world agriculture by providing valuable solutions to challenges facing humanity including threats to world agriculture and the ability to feed the world’s rapidly growing population.

The Company owns proprietary technology for its initial commercial product, BAM-FX™ that can boost the nutritional value and enhance the immune system of food crops without the use of Genetic Modification. The Company’s focus is the commercialization of BAM-FX™ in both domestic and international markets. The Company’s headquarters are located in Boca Raton Florida. 

The Company operates through two wholly owned subsidiaries: BAM Agricultural Solutions, Inc. and Zero Gravity Life Sciences, Inc., both Florida corporations formed by the Company in 2014.

Going Concern and Management’s Plans 

The Company has a working capital deficiency as of March 31, 2018, and a loss from operations and negative cash flows from operating activities for the quarter then ended. At March 31, 2018, the Company had an approximate cash balance of $44,000, and a working capital deficiency of approximately $(1,186,000), and had a loss from operations of approximately $(1,577,000), and negative cash flows from operating activities of approximately $(1,057,000) for the quarter then ended. To date, the Company has relied on equity financing and has entered into related and non-related party promissory notes to fund its operations. The Company has also issued stock-based compensation in exchange for services. Although the Company intends to raise additional capital, the Company expects to continue to incur losses from operations and have negative cash flows from operating activities for the near-term and these losses could be significant as product development, regulatory, contract research, and technical marketing personnel related expenses are incurred. Management has evaluated its ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months from the issuance of these March 31, 2018 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and has determined that there is substantial doubt as to its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has satisfied its obligations using cash from successful capital raising efforts through March 31, 2018, however there are no assurances that such successful efforts will continue for up to a year after these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company has executed product distribution agreements with domestic and international commercial agricultural distributors and generated initial product orders. Additional technical and marketing effort must be devoted to those distributors to insure the product is properly utilized and validated by end users. To fund these capital needs, the Company has and continues to raise capital through private placement offerings in connection with its investment banker and through its internal efforts, as well as raising funds through issuances of debt. Subsequent to March 31, 2018, the Company has raised approximately $2,350,000 in debt financing and approximately $745,000 through the sale of common stock (Note 7). If the Company does not obtain additional capital, the Company would potentially be required to reduce the scope of its business development activities or cease operations. The Company continues to explore obtaining additional capital financing and the Company is closely monitoring its cash balances, cash needs and expense levels. 

Management’s strategic plans include the following:

Interim Financial Statements

The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and reclassifications and non-recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, our cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, and our financial position as of March 31, 2018 have been made. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year.

Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted from these interim consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2017 as filed with the SEC on August 13, 2018. The December 31, 2017 balance sheet is derived from those statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the allowance for doubtful accounts and other receivables, inventory reserves and classifications, amortization period and recoverability of intangible assets, valuation of beneficial conversion features in convertible debt, valuation of loss contingencies, valuation of stock-based compensation and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.

Segment Reporting

The Company views its operations and manages its business as  one reportable segment. As a result the consolidated financial statements presented within, relate to our principal operating segment.  Customers in the United States accounted for 100% of our revenues. We do not have any property or equipment outside of the United States.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Zero Gravity Solutions, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents at March 31, 2018 and 2017.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives. Property and equipment is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

Impairment of Long Lived Assets

The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of ASC 360-10-35-15 “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”  This guidance requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.  Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company believes that its credit risk exposure is limited. The Company has never suffered a loss due to excess balances.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company accounts for financial instruments under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic (ASC) 820, Fair Value Measurements .  This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels as follows:

ZERO GRAVITY SOLUTIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2018

(Unaudited)

Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs are based on the Company’s market assumptions.  Unobservable inputs require significant management judgment or estimation.  In some cases, the inputs used to measure an asset or liability may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy.  In those instances, the fair value measurement is required to be classified using the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.  Such determination requires significant management judgment. 

As the Company's common stock is not traded in an active market, the Company estimates the fair value of its common stock (used in its Black Scholes option pricing model) pursuant to ASC 820. This estimation process maximizes the use of observable inputs, including the quoted price of the Company's common stock in an inactive market, the price of the Company's common stock determined in connection with transactions in the Company's common stock, and an income approach to valuation (a discounted cash flow technique that considers the future cash flows).

The carrying amounts of the Company’s accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments. The carrying value of the Company’s notes payable approximates fair value due to their short period to maturity and their stated interest rates, combined with historic interest rate levels. 

Revenue recognition and accounts receivable

We recognize revenues from the sale of agricultural biotechnology products to distributors and customers pursuant to the provisions of ASC 606, “Revenue Recognition”.

Revenues for agricultural chemical products are recognized when title to the products is transferred which may be upon shipment to the customer or receipt by the customer of the product. We recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration (that is, payment) to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

When amounts are billed to customers for shipping and handling fees they are included in net sales, and the related costs incurred by the company for the delivery of invoiced goods are classified as cost of goods sold in our Statements of Operations.

The Company determined that no  reserve for estimated product returns and allowances was necessary during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 . Determination of the reserve for estimated product returns and allowances is based on management's analyses and judgments regarding certain conditions. Should future changes in conditions prove management's conclusions and judgments on previous analyses to be incorrect, revenue recognized for any reporting period could be materially affected. 

At March 31, 2018, two customers accounted for 100% of total accounts receivable. Each of these customers represented 85.8%, and 14.2%, respectively. During the period ended March 31, 2018, two customers accounted for 100% of net sales 75% and 25% respectively. 0% of sales for the quarter were to customers outside of the U.S.

At December 31, 2017, three customers accounted for 100% of total accounts receivable. Each of these three customers represented 46.5%, 34.9% and 18.6%, respectively. During the period ended March  31, 2017, one customer accounted for 22.8% of net sales.

The Company extends credit to customers generally without requiring collateral. The Company monitors its exposure for credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts when it is probable that the accounts receivable balance will not be collected. When estimating the allowance, the Company takes into consideration such factors as its day-to-day knowledge of the financial position of specific clients, and the industry and size of its clients. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $0  and $32,663, respectively.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales is comprised of material costs, invoiced shipping costs and royalty expense.  

Warrants

The Company recognizes the cost of warrants issued with debt as debt discount in the consolidated financial statements which is recorded at the warrants relative fair value which is measured based on the grant date fair value of the award. The Company estimates the fair value of each warrant at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Stock based compensation

The Company recognizes the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments in the consolidated financial statements which is measured based on the grant date fair value of the award. Stock based compensation expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (generally the vesting period). The Company estimates the fair value of each stock award at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Costs equal to these fair values are recognized ratably over the requisite service period based on the number of awards that are expected to vest, or in the period of grant for awards that vest immediately and have no future service condition. The expense resulting from employee and share-based payments is recorded in general and administrative expense in 2018 and 2017.

The Company also grants share-based compensation awards to non-employees for service provided to the Company. The Company measures and recognizes the fair value of such transactions based on the fair value of consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

Loss per Share

Loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income (loss) by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity instruments. The effect of the inclusion of the dilutive shares would have resulted in a decrease in loss per share. Accordingly, the weighted average shares outstanding have not been adjusted for dilutive shares. Outstanding warrants, stock options and convertible debt are not considered in the calculation as the impact of the potential common shares (totaling 13,550,332, shares and 14,044,842  shares for the periods ended March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively), would be to decrease net loss per share.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred.

Warranty Expense

The Company's distribution agreements provide for a warranty on products sold. As sales under such distribution agreements have been nominal through 2018 and 2017, there has been no  warranty expense in 2018 or 2017. A provision for estimated future warranty costs is to be recorded as cost of sales when products are shipped, and warranty costs are to be based on historical trends in warranty charges as a percentage of gross product shipments. A resulting accrual is to be reviewed regularly, and periodically adjusted to reflect changes in warranty cost estimates.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, in which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is required to the extent any deferred tax assets may not be realizable.

The Company does not have an accrual for uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017.   The Company files corporate income tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service and the States where the Company determines it is required to do so.  The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. At March 31, 2018, the Company did not have any accrued interest or penalties associated with any unrecognized tax benefits, nor was any interest expense recognized during the periods ended March 31, 2018 or 2017.  

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the December 31, 2017 balance sheet have been reclassified from accounts payable, related party to accrued interest, related party to conform to the March 31, 2018 presentation.  This reclassification had no effect on current liabilities in either period presented.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” which has been further clarified and amended. The core principle of the new standard is for companies to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration (that is, payment) to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard also will result in enhanced disclosures about revenue, provide guidance for transactions that were not previously addressed comprehensively (for example, service revenue and contract modifications) and clarify guidance for multiple-element arrangements. Entities have the option to apply the new guidance under a retrospective approach to each prior reporting period presented or a modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially applying the new guidance recognized at the date of initial application within the Statement of Financial Position. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after Dec. 15, 2017. The Company has finalized its assessment of ASC 606 and determined there will be no material effect on our financial position and results of operations. The timing and amount of revenue recognized based on the new standard is consistent with the revenue recognition policy under previous guidance, however, certain additional financial statement disclosures will be required beginning with 2018 reporting, including additional disaggregated view of revenue. We have adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective transition method.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016 - 02, Leases . The main difference between the provisions of ASU No. 2016 - 02 and previous U.S. GAAP is the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous U.S. GAAP. ASU No. 2016 - 02 retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases, and the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not significantly changed from previous U.S. GAAP. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. The accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under previous U.S. GAAP. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. This ASU is effective for public business entities in fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of any interim or annual reporting period. The Company has not finalized the analysis to determine the effect of the standard, but believes that it will not have a material impact on the statement of operations.

In June 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2018 - 07, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718 ): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” ASU No 2018 - 07 expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The guidance also specifies that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than an entity’s adoption date of Topic 606. This guidance is applicable to the Company’s fiscal year beginning January  1, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-11 Earnings Per Share (Topic 260) Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) (“ASU 2017-11”) , which changes the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. ASU 2017-11 also clarifies existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value as a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments, ASU 2017-11 requires entities that present earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with ASC Topic 260 to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS.  Convertible instruments with embedded conversion options that have down round features are now subject to the specialized guidance for contingent beneficial conversion features in ASC 470-20.  For the Company, ASU 2017-11 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts ASU 2017-11 in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period in either of the following ways: 1. Retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the first fiscal year and interim period(s) in which ASU 2017-11 is effective or 2. Retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature for each prior reporting period presented in accordance with the guidance on accounting changes in paragraphs 250-10-45-5 through 45-10. The Company is currently evaluating the potential effects of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

Depreciation expense for the period ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was $6,235  and $6,107, respectively

NOTE 3  – RELATED PARTY NOTES AND TRANSACTIONS

Convertible Note Payable

In July 2015, member of the Company’s Board of Directors advanced the Company $500,000 under a note payable for working capital purposes. The unsecured note payable bears interest at 8.5% per annum, is payable quarterly, and was originally due in July 2016. In connection with the note, the Company issued warrants to purchase 350,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $3  per share. The Company calculated the fair value of the warrants at $416,618 utilizing the Black-Scholes Model with the following assumptions: expected dividends of 0%, volatility of 184.2%, risk free interest rate of 1.66% and expected life of 5 years. The relative fair value of the debt and warrants was recorded resulting in a debt discount of $227,258 upon execution of the agreement. In July 2016, the maturity date of the note was extended to July 2017, and a conversion feature was added. The conversion feature allows the holder to convert the debt into common shares at his option at a conversion price of $1.25 per share ( 400,000 shares). The addition of the conversion feature represented a substantial modification to the debt instrument but the modification was determined to not be material. During 2017, $42,500  was recorded as interest expense and $10,625 was included in payables at December 31, 2017. During 2017, the maturity date of the note was extended to July 2018 and then extended again in 2018 to July 2019.

The following is a summary of the Company’s warrant activity for the year ended March 31, 2018:

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total intrinsic value (the difference between the estimated fair value of the Company’s stock price on March 31, 2018 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money warrants) that would have been received by the warrant holders, had all warrant holders been able to, and in fact had, exercised their warrants on March 31, 2018.

Stock incentive plan options

In November 2015, the Company adopted its 2015 Equity Incentive Plan. The Plan provides stock based compensation to employees, directors and consultants, as more fully described in the Plan. The Company has reserved 4,000,000 shares under the Plan. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 the Company granted options to purchase up to 25,000 shares of common stock, to an employee with an exercise price of $1.25 per share and a term of 10 years. The estimated fair value of $19,208 of the grants for the three months ended March 31, 2108 was based upon the following management assumptions: For the period March 31, 2018, expected dividends of $0, volatility of 101.7% based on comparative volatility, risk free interest rates of 2.58%, and expected term of the options of 5 years.

The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock option grants based on the fair value at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. As the Company does not currently have reliably determined historic stock prices, the Company uses management estimates of stock value. The Company uses historical data, among other factors, to estimate the expected option life and the expected forfeiture rate. The Company estimates expected term considering factors such as historical exercise patterns and the recipients of the options granted. The risk-free rate is based on the United States Treasury Department yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the expected life of the option. The Company assumes an expected dividend yield of zero for all periods.  For employee, consultant and director stock based compensation, the Company used management's fair value estimates of $1.21 for the period March 31, 2018 .
