Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

 

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial statements for interim periods in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The information included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (“2018 Form 10-K”). The Company’s accounting policies are described in the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in the 2018 Form 10-K and are updated, as necessary, in this Form 10-Q. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data presented for comparative purposes was derived from the audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year or for any other subsequent interim period.

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and our wholly owned subsidiaries Ondas Networks and FS Partners (FS Partners has not begun operations) and our majority owned subsidiaries, Full Spectrum Holding and Ondas Network Limited (both have not begun operations). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions between these entities have been eliminated in these condensed consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

 

The process of preparing 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 assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Such management estimates include those relating to revenue recognition, inventory write-downs to reflect net realizable value, assumptions used in the valuation of stock-based awards and warrants, and valuation allowances against deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Inventory

Inventory

 

Inventories, which consist solely of equipment components, are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value, net of reserves for obsolete inventory. We continually analyze our slow-moving and excess inventories. Based on historical and projected sales volumes and anticipated selling prices, we established reserves. Inventory that is in excess of current and projected use is reduced by an allowance to a level that approximates its estimate of future demand. Products that are determined to be obsolete are written down to net realizable value. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we determined that no such reserves were necessary.

 

Inventory consist of the following:

 

   

March 31,

2019

   

December 31,

2018

 
Raw Material   $ 321,598     $ 307,947  
Finished Goods     33,830       39,998  
TOTAL INVENTORY   $ 355,428     $ 347,945  
Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company follows the fair value recognition provisions in ASC 718, Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”) and the provisions of ASC 505 (“ASC 505”) for stock-based transactions with non-employees. Stock based compensation expense recognized during the year includes compensation expense for all share-based payments based on a grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions in the FASB guidance for stock compensation. The grant date is the date at which an employer and employee reach a mutual understanding of the key terms and conditions of a share-based payment award.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Our financial instruments consist primarily of receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses and short and long-term debt. The carrying amount of receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of such instruments. We have elected not to carry our debt instruments at fair value. The carrying amount of our debt approximates fair value. Interest rates that are currently available to us for issuance of short and long-term debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate the fair value of our short and long-term debt.

 

We have categorized our assets and liabilities that are valued at fair value on a recurring basis into a three-level fair value hierarchy in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3).

 

Assets and liabilities recorded in the balance sheets at fair value are categorized based on a hierarchy of inputs, as follows:

 

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

 

At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had no instruments requiring a fair value determination.

 

The following table provides a summary of changes in fair value associated with the Level 3 liabilities for three months ended March 31, 2019 and for the year ended December 31, 2018:

 

    Fair Value Measurements Using

Change in fair value of derivative liability     -       (975,902 )
Balance, end of period   $ -     $ -  

 

The above table of Level 3 liabilities begins with the prior period balance and adjusts the balance for changes that occurred during the current period. The ending balance of the Level 3 financial instrument presented above represent our best estimates and may not be substantiated by comparisons to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in immediate settlement of the instruments.

Deferred Offering Costs

Deferred Offering Costs

 

The Company capitalizes certain legal, professional accounting and other third-party fees that are directly associated with in-process equity financings as deferred offering costs until such financings are consummated. After consummation of the equity financing, these costs are recorded in stockholders’ deficit as a reduction of additional paid-in capital generated as a result of the offering. Should a planned equity financing be abandoned, the deferred offering costs will be expensed immediately as a charge to operating expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.

Debt Issuance Costs

Debt Issuance Costs

 

Debt issuance costs represent costs incurred for the issuance of debt. Once the associated debt instrument is issued, these costs would be recorded as a debt discount and amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the related debt instrument. Upon abandonment of a pending financing transaction, the related deferred financing costs are charged to interest expense. In accordance with this policy during the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company expensed $150,000 of financing costs in accordance with this policy.

Foreign Currency

Foreign Currency

 

Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of our foreign operations, generally, is the respective local currency for each foreign subsidiary. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations denominated in local currencies are translated at the spot rate in effect at the applicable reporting date. Our condensed consolidated statements of income are translated at the weighted average rate of exchange during the applicable period. The resulting unrealized cumulative translation adjustment is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity. Realized and unrealized transaction gains and losses generated by transactions denominated in a currency different from the functional currency of the applicable entity are recorded in other income (loss) in the period in which they occur.

ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Accounting Standard Update 2016-02, Leases

 

Under Topic 842, operating lease expense is generally recognized evenly over the term of the lease. The Company has operating leases primarily consisting of office space with remaining lease terms of 21 months to 50 months. Current facility leases include our offices in Sunnyvale, CA and Chengdu, Sichuan Province, People’s Republic of China. Lease costs were $160,802 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. There was no sublease rental income for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

 

Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. For lease agreements entered into or reassessed after the adoption of Topic 842, we combine the lease and non-lease components in determining the lease liabilities and right of use (“ROU”) assets.

 

Our lease agreements generally do not provide an implicit borrowing rate, therefore an internal incremental borrowing rate is determined based on information available at lease commencement date for purposes of determining the present value of lease payments. We used the incremental borrowing rate on December 31, 2018 for all leases that commenced prior to that date.

Net Loss Per Common Share

Net Loss Per Common Share

 

Net loss per share for all periods presented is based on the equity structure of the legal acquirer, which assumes common stock is outstanding and is reflected on a retrospective basis for all periods presented. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for each period. Diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share since the Company has net losses for each period presented.

 

Potentially dilutive securities related to convertible debt for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 totaled 140,678 and 1,541,485, respectively, and have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share because the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Concentration of Customers

Concentration of Customers

 

Because we have only recently invested in our customer service and support organization, a small number of customers have accounted for a substantial amount of our revenue. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, two customers accounted for approximately $25,700 and $5,600 of our revenue or 80% and 17%, respectively. No other customers provided more than 10% of our revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, two customers accounted for approximately $19,000 and $6,800 of our revenue or 65% and 23%, respectively. No other customers provided more than 10% of our revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”), 2018-13 that eliminates certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements for all entities, requires public entities to disclose certain new information and modifies some disclosure requirements. The FASB developed the amendments to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 as part of its broader disclosure framework project, which aims to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to financial statements by focusing on requirements that clearly communicate the most important information to users of the financial statements. The new guidance is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity is permitted to early adopt either the entire standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify requirements. We are currently evaluating the effect of this guidance on our disclosures.

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2018-07”). The amendments in ASU 2018-07 expand the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. ASU 2018-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has elected to early adopt ASU 2018-07 effective as of October 1, 2018.

 

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11 (“ASU 2017-11”), Earnings Per Share (“Topic 260”), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“Topic 480”), and Derivatives and Hedging (“Topic 815”). ASU 2017-11 is intended to simplify the accounting for financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. Among the issues addressed are: (i) determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock; (ii) distinguishing liabilities from equity for mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of certain nonpublic entities; and (iii) identifying mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests. ASU 2017-11 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. The adoption of this pronouncement had no impact on our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
