Dais Corporation

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

March 31, 2022 and 2021

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1. Background Information

 

Dais Corporation (“Dais”, “us,” “we,”, the “Company”), a New York corporation, is a nano-structured polymer technology materials company having developed and now commercializing products using its family of nanomaterial called Aqualyte. Aqualyte itself is the first product being commercialized. The second commercial product is called ConsERV, a fixed plate energy recovery ventilator which we believe is useful in meeting building indoor fresh air requirements while saving energy and lowering emissions for most forms of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment. The Company was incorporated in April 1993 and its corporate headquarters is in Odessa, Florida.

 

The Company is dependent on third parties to manufacture the key components needed for its nanostructured materials and some portion of the value-added products made with these materials. Accordingly, a suppliers’ failure to supply components in a timely manner, or to supply components that meet the Company’s quality, quantity and cost requirements or technical specifications, or the inability to obtain alternative sources of these components on a timely basis or on acceptable terms, would create delays in production of the Company’s products and/or increase its unit costs of production. Certain of the components or the processes of the Company’s suppliers are proprietary. If the Company was ever required to replace any of its suppliers, it should be able to obtain comparable components from alternative suppliers at comparable costs, but this would create a delay in production and may briefly affect the Company’s operations.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The Company’s accompanying condensed financial statements are unaudited, but in the opinion of management reflect all adjustments necessary to fairly state the Company’s financial position, results of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows as of and for the dates and periods presented. The financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information.

 

The unaudited financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted although the Company generally believes that the disclosures are adequate to ensure that the information presented is not misleading. The accompanying financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2022. The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future quarters or for the entire year ending December 31, 2022.

 

Note 2. Going Concern and Management’s Plans

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred significant losses since inception, incurred a loss of $1,082,530 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and, as of March 31, 2022, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $58,905,632, total stockholders’ deficit of $9,454,705, negative working capital of $9,381,224 and cash of $80,632. The Company used $658,307 and $171,350 of cash in operations during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which was funded primarily by proceeds from loans from related parties and equity financings. There is no assurance that any such financing will be available in the future. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is currently pursuing the following sources of short and long-term working capital:

 

The Company has selected targeted parties that it is actively working with who are interested in licensing, purchasing the rights to, or establishing a joint venture to commercialize applications of the Company’s technology; 

 

The Company continues to seek capital from certain strategic and/or government grant opportunities and related sources. These sources may, pursuant to any agreements that may be developed in conjunction with such funding, assist in the product definition and design, roll-out and channel penetration of products; and 

 

The Company is actively working with newer investors, private equity companies, purchase order financing parties, and seemingly increased its value and potential to attract new investors in the eyes of the Management team when the Company completed the exchange program of ‘debt to equity’ in the 2nd quarter of 2021 clearing out all convertible debt in exchange for equity at a fixed price at the end of the second quarter of 2021.

Table of Contents

 

Failure by us to timely procure additional financing or investment adequate to fund the ongoing operations, including planned product development initiatives and commercialization efforts, or experience a major supply chain disruption will have material adverse consequences on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as could any unfavorable terms. While we believe the Company’s prospects have improved for funding, there are no assurances we will be able to obtain the financing and planned product development commercialization. The Company may fail to reach an accord with the Senior Secured Note Holder who has deep rights with the assets of the Company pledged as security for repayment of the Note. Accordingly, we may not have the ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Note 3. Significant Accounting Policies

 

The significant accounting policies followed are:

 

Use of estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Significant estimates underlying the Company’s reported financial position and results of operations include the allowance for doubtful accounts, fair value of stock-based compensation, fair value of derivative liabilities, valuation allowance on deferred taxes and the warranty reserve.

 

Revenue recognition - The Company has adopted the new revenue recognition guidelines in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606). The Company analyzes its contracts to assess that they are within the scope and in accordance with ASC 606. In determining the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as the Company fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements, whether for goods and services or licensing, the Company performs the following steps: (i) identification of the promised goods or services in the contract; (ii) determination of whether the promised goods or services are performance obligations including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract; (iii) measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations based on estimated selling prices; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation. The Company acts as a principal in its revenue transactions as the Company is the primary obligor in the transactions. Generally, the Company recognizes revenue for its products upon shipment to customers, provided no significant obligations remain and collection is probable.

Cash and cash equivalents - For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained at financial institutions, and, at times, balances may exceed federally insured limits. The Company had uninsured balances of approximately $0 and $483,000 at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The Company has never experienced any losses related to these balances. The company does not have any cash equivalents at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

 

Concentrations At March 31, 2022, one customer accounted for 100% of accounts receivable. At December 31, 2021, two customers accounted for 100% of accounts receivable. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, four customers accounted for 83% of total revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, three customers accounted for 85% of total revenue.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, deferred revenue, customer deposits and notes payable are carried at historical cost. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 the carrying amounts of these instruments approximated their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

Inventory - Inventory consists of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods and is stated at the lower of cost, determined by first-in, first-out method, or market. Market is determined based on the net realizable value, with appropriate consideration given to obsolescence, excessive levels, deterioration, and other factors. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $92,529 and $59,631 of raw materials, $2,095 and $1,844 of in-process inventory and $20,650 and $10,592 of finished goods inventory, respectively. A reserve is recorded for any inventory deemed excessive or obsolete. No reserve is recorded at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

 

Property and equipment - Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from 3 to 7 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their estimated useful lives of 5 years or the related lease term. Depreciation expense was $1,851 and $988 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Gains and losses upon disposition are reflected in the Statement of Operations in the period of disposition. Maintenance and repair expenditures are charged to expense as incurred. There were no dispositions of property and equipment in 2022 or 2021.

 

Intangible assets - Identified intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company’s existing intangible assets consist solely of patents. Patents are amortized over their estimated useful or economic lives of 17 years. Patent amortization expense was $4,831 and $4,562 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Based on current capitalized costs, total patent amortization expense is estimated to be approximately $19,400 per year for the next five years and thereafter.

 

Research and development expenses and funding proceeds - Expenditures for research and development are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred research and development costs of $64,873 and $44,597 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company accounts for proceeds received from government funding for research as a reduction in research and development costs. The Company recorded proceeds against research and development expenses on the Statements of Operations of $0 and $31,080 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Derivative Liability - The Company, up until June 30, 2021, had financial instruments that are considered derivatives or contain embedded features subject to derivative accounting. Embedded derivatives are valued separately from the host instrument and are recognized as derivative liabilities in the Company’s balance sheet. The Company measures these instruments at their estimated fair value and recognizes changes in their estimated fair value in results of operations during the period of change.

 

Fair Value Measurements - The Company accounts for financial instruments in accordance with ASC 820 “Fair value Measurement and Disclosures”. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value 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. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs).

Table of Contents

 

The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

 

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g. interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

 

Level 3 - Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

 

The reconciliation of the derivative liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis using unobservable inputs (Level 3) is as follows for the three months ended March 31, 2021:

Earnings (loss) per share - Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share is computed giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares. Potentially dilutive common shares may consist of incremental shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants. In periods in which a net loss has been incurred, all potentially dilutive common shares are considered anti-dilutive and are excluded from the calculation. Common share equivalents of 32,526,731 and 250,834 were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, because their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

Diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2021 is computed as follows:

The conversion rate shall be equal to 75% of the average closing price for the Company’s common stock for the 30 trading days prior to the date of conversion. The Company shall also pay to Mr. Tangredi a cash payment equal to 20% of the compensation income incurred because of the conversion. The Company has waived the conversion requirement from 2015 to the present. See Note 13 Commitments and Contingencies for further disclosure of the terms of Mr. Tangredi’s employment agreement.

Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies

 

Litigation

 

From time to time, claims are made against the Company in the ordinary course of its business, which could result in litigation. Claims and associated litigation are subject to inherent uncertainties and unfavorable outcomes could occur, such as monetary damages, fines, penalties, or injunctions prohibiting the Company from selling one or more products or engaging in other activities. The occurrence of an unfavorable outcome in any specific period could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations for that period or future periods. 

 

In 2015, the Company commenced an action for the cancellation of shares issued to Soex (the “Shares”) in connection with a breached Securities Purchase Agreement and Distribution Agreement entered 2014.

 

The Soex Litigation was tried in U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida in October of 2018. The jury at the conclusion of the trial did not award monetary damages to either party for claims or counterclaims.

 

On October 24, 2018, the Company initiated a third lawsuit against an affiliate of Soex, Zhongshan Trans-Tech New Material Technology Co. Ltd. Zhongshan, China, (“Transtech”), and the Chairperson of the affiliate and Soex, based on new information learned by the Company. The Company will seek maximum relief and damages for this on-going and growing illegal misuse the Company’s Intellectual Property. The Company feels this third action will lead in a judgment in favor of the Company.

 

On October 8, 2021 the Company was notified of a unusual order by the Federal District Court judge who oversaw the initial 2018 proceedings. This activity was initiated at the request of Soex’s counsel. The Order awards the defendant (Soex) $300,568 in attorney’s fees and $82,096 in costs for a total award of $382,664 to be paid by Dais. The Order doesn’t specify the date by which the award needs to be paid. The sum is recorded in accrued liabilities.

 

The Company will vigorously defend itself against this Order, as well as move on all possible avenues open to it to stop, what Management believes, is an on-going misuse of the Company’s core Intellectual Property. The Company believes – based on the content of the Order and other admissions and actions on the part of others – it has a chance to prevail in an appeal to the benefit of the Company and its shareholders.

Supply Chain (Availability and Increased prices) and Tightening labor market (money and people)

 

Current world-wide supply chain issues are impacting many industries, including those of the Company. The lead time for materials and components is increasing, resulting in longer delivery dates. Management is working with existing partners to identify multiple sources of materials and components so as not to rely heavily on one or two suppliers. Increasing crude oil prices is influencing the cost of resins, plastics and fuel. Shipping and trucking costs have increased while capacity has contracted. These issues are creating increased costs across industries and Management is evaluating its’ pricing and lead times regularly. The labor market is having an impact across industries as competition for workers is increasing. Management is working to anticipate workforce needs and planning accordingly.

The Company is dependent on third parties to manufacture the key components needed for its nanostructured materials and some portion of the value-added products made with these materials. Accordingly, a suppliers’ failure to supply components in a timely manner, or to supply components that meet the Company’s quality, quantity and cost requirements or technical specifications, or the inability to obtain alternative sources of these components on a timely basis or on acceptable terms, would create delays in production of the Company’s products and/or increase its unit costs of production. Certain of the components or the processes of the Company’s suppliers are proprietary. If the Company was ever required to replace any of its suppliers, it should be able to obtain comparable components from alternative suppliers at comparable costs, but this would create a delay in production and may briefly affect the Company’s operations.

 

Covid-19 World-wide Pandemic

 

Management is keenly aware of the effects the pandemic is having on economies, and everyday life, across the globe. Governments, industry experts, and private business are working to create solutions to defeat the current pandemic and protect us from future infections. The Company is uniquely positioned as its’ current products are designed to provide a solution to these issues especially in increased ventilation. The awareness of the benefits of increased ventilation in homes and workplaces is a major factor in the solution to battle the current, and future, pandemics. The ConsERV products are specifically designed to increase new, fresh, ventilated, air in our homes and workplaces. Management is developing and executing on plans to increase product awareness through existing and prospective sales channels.

 

Climate Change and Carbon Reduction

 

Countries and corporations around the world are adopting aggressive plans to achieve newly established Carbon Neutral goals by 2030 and 2050. This world-wide effort is attracting attention to innovative technologies which reduce carbon emissions. Management is confident the successful track record of current products, with a history of increasing the efficiency of HVAC systems and reducing CO2 emissions should drive increased business activity.

 

Volatile Share Price

 

Beginning in mid-October of 2021 the Company’s share price on the OTCM has risen from a low of $.05 per share to a high price of $3.15 per share, and places in between. We believe the market for the Company’s products and planned products is broadening worldwide, spawning increased interest in Dais. This coupled with Management executing against its business plan working to grow revenues increasing shareholder value are what we believe may be the reason for a potential jagged up and down nature of the Company’s share price.

 

Overview

 

Dais Corporation (“Dais”, “us,” “we,”, the “Company”) is a nanomaterial technology company developing and commercializing products using the nanomaterial called Aqualyte. The first commercial product is the Aqualyte nanomaterial itself. It is useful in managing moisture and key gases in a variety of cross-industry products.

 

The second commercial product is called ConsERV, a fixed plate energy recovery ventilator which is useful in meeting building indoor fresh air requirements while saving energy and lowering emissions for most forms of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment. We continue to develop other Aqualyte uses in cross-industry applications, HVAC/Refrigeration, energy, etc. One area of focused attention has been development work on a variant of Aqualyte targeting surface treatments to potentially create a protective layer designed to inactivate human coronaviruses.

 

Corporate History

 

We were incorporated as a New York corporation on April 8, 1993 as Dais Corporation. The Company was formed to develop new, cost-effective polymer materials for various applications, including providing a lower cost membrane material for Polymer Electrolyte Membrane fuel cells. We believe our research on materials science has yielded technological advances in the field of selective ion transport polymer materials.

In December 1999, the Company purchased the assets of Analytic Power Corporation, a corporation founded in 1984 to provide design, analysis, and systems integration services in the field of fuel cells, fuel processors, and integrated fuel cell power systems. Subsequently, on December 13, 1999, the Company changed its name to Dais Analytic Corporation. In the ensuing years the Company has purchased and/or sold assets for cash and/or assumption of certain company’s obligations seeking a path to solid, continuing growth, or monetize non-performing Company assets.

 

In November of 2018 the board of directors unanimously voted to change the name of the Company from Dais Analytic Corporation to Dais Corporation (the “Name Change”). The Name Change took effect with FINRA on February 27, 2019.

 

Our Technology

 

AqualyteTM

 

We use proprietary nanotechnology to reformulate thermoplastic materials called polymers, creating a material which water and a select group of similar substances can permeate through at a molecular level as opposed to flowing in bulk as liquid water through a pore. At the same time, the permeability of oxygen, nitrogen, and most other substances is severely limited, making the material extremely selective. We call this specialized material AqualyteTM and we have been granted a series of patents relating to its manufacture and use.

 

AqualyteTM is the foundation of the Dais product line, using the unique material’s properties to enable differentiated air, energy, and water products. Products generally are highly efficient, have fewer or no moving parts, and notably are kinder and gentler to our planet Earth. The nanomaterial-based products market is growing worldwide as more eyes are on the accelerating push for highly efficient products like those Dais features.

ConsERVTM

 

Sales channels for our ConsERV product continues to expand. This is our HVAC energy conservation product which should save an average of 30% on HVAC ventilation air operating costs while providing increased amounts of ventilated air. The economic savings typically allow the remainder of the system to be smaller and less expensive, reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from electrical power generation. ConsERV generally attaches onto existing HVAC systems and is useful in both commercial and residential structures, to provide improved ventilation air within the structure. In turn, this yields health benefits (reduced COVID-19 exposure, fewer allergy, and asthma ‘trigger’ contaminants) and productivity improvements (improvement in cognitive abilities).

 

ConsERV separates incoming fresh ventilation air from outgoing exhaust air with our Aqualyte nanotechnology polymer in an enthalpy heat exchanger referred to as a “core”. While Aqualyte physically isolates the air streams, so they don’t mix, heat and moisture are freely exchanged through the material. For summer air conditioning, the core removes some of the heat and humidity from the incoming air and transfers it to the exhaust air stream, thereby saving energy under many conditions. For winter heating, the core typically recovers a portion of the heat and humidity in the exhaust air and transfers it into the incoming air to reduce heating requirements.

 

When compared to similar competitive products, we believe, based on test results conducted by the Air-conditioning, Heating and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI), a leading industry association, ConsERV maintains an industry-leading position in the management of latent heat. The Company continues to make and sell ConsERV cores, and customer ERV systems.

 

Having identified the Energy Recovery Ventilator (“ERV”) application as being able to benefit from ConsERV’s features/options proven to be achieved by using the Company’s nanotechnology. The market, as near as management can tell, for ventilation equipment is changing. Management feels the market for energy recovery ventilation is changing to be broader and better understood.

 

This change is believed linked to the industry specification setting body (ASHRAE) and the US Center for Disease Control stating pathogens can and do travel via HVAC systems and duct work as reported by the White House Science Advisory Panel, the US EPA, NIH/Harvard, Trane Corporation, and more.

 

This potential change in the market for ERVs coupled with the seemingly proven value proposition Dais’s ConsERV product provides optimism to the Management team and the Board of Directors for the future of the ConsERV product.

 

The Company began engineering for an updated line of ConsERV products in the year 2020 (known as the “N Series” – new cores and packaged systems). The experiences of the Company’s past ERV products modified by market needs are incorporated into this newer packaged ERV product line. The line was certified by the needed outside agencies and initial market introduction began in the 4th quarter of 2021. We have seen positive market reception to date, and believe based on the N Series performance, price-point, and end-user feedback, the product will continue to be well received in the market. Sales of existing cores and customer systems are expected to continue generating revenue during 2022 and beyond as we increase the number of sales channels for ConsERV. The newer N Series will begin contributing to increasing revenues in the second quarter of 2022 and beyond.

Product Summary

 

Dais’s advanced material has many demonstrated uses in the described products. Management is positioning most of the Company’s resources behind the two most mature products in two major revenue generating paths: (1) ConsERV cores and systems, and (2) the sale of Aqualyte nanomaterials and engineering support in areas where Aqualyte has shown proven results and Dais has partners well-placed to bring products to market. Management projects this narrower focus will increase revenues allowing profitability to occur faster. This strategy leverages the Company’s experience and depth in marketing, building, and selling ConsERV cores and systems and in manufacturing and selling high performance Aqualyte nanomaterial.

 

Sales activities for advanced materials are continuing with select, successful companies located in the European Union and Southeast Asia (including China) which take full advantage of Dais’s past and continuing market penetration efforts. The uses include energy recovery ventilation and other known HVAC and select cross-industry uses.

 

To help us support our capabilities to deliver ConsERV cores and systems, and Aqualyte advanced nanomaterials, we have qualified manufacturing companies to join our supply chain to produce materials and components. Guided by Dais-qualified manufacturing practices these efforts target the growing demand for product in North America, European Union, and Southeast Asia (including China). We project this expansion of the supply chain will result in lower costs and quicker order fulfillment, generating revenues faster.

 

Orders are already being generated from these agreements, and we expect them to increase as we expand and add new strategic partnerships along the way. The new orders include sales of Aqualyte nanomaterials, components for energy recovery ventilation, and other known HVAC and select cross industry products.

Revenue

 

We generate our revenues primarily from the sale of our ConsERV cores and systems and Aqualyte membrane. Product sales were $43,195 and $62,809 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, a decrease of $19,614 or 31%. The decrease in revenue was driven by a decrease in Aqualyte sales, offset by an increase in ConsERV sales. We are focusing on creating sustainable revenues with Aqualyte and ConsERV core and system sales with the expectation that this will allow for growth in 2022 and beyond.

 

Revenues from royalty and license fees were $12,500 and $12,500 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Cost of sales

 

Our cost of sales consists primarily of materials (including freight), direct labor, and outsourced manufacturing expenses incurred to produce our ConsERV cores and systems and Aqualyte nanomaterial. Cost of goods sold were $52,440 and $37,860 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 respectively, an increase of $14,580 or 38%. This reflects our normal differences in manufacturing costs between our product lines and general cost increases within our supply chain.

 

We are dependent on third parties to manufacture the key components needed for our nano-structured based materials and some portion of the value-added products made with these materials. Accordingly, a supplier’s failure to supply components in a timely manner, or to supply components that meet our quality, quantity and cost requirements or technical specifications, or the inability to obtain alternative sources of these components on a timely basis or on acceptable terms, would create delays in production of our products and/or increase the unit costs of production. Certain of the components or the processes of our suppliers are proprietary. If we were ever required to replace any of our suppliers, we should be able to obtain comparable components from alternative suppliers at comparable costs, but this would create a delay in production.

 

Gross margin

 

Gross margin from the sales of products was $3,255 and $37,449 representing 6% and 50% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

 

Research and development costs

 

Expenditures for research and development are expensed as incurred. We incurred research and development costs of $64,873 and $44,597 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, an increase of $20,276 or 46%. We account for proceeds received from government funding for research and development as a reduction in research and development costs. We recorded proceeds against research and development expenses on the Statements of Operations of $0 and $31,080 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, a decrease of $31,080 or 100%. Variances in grant expenditures and reimbursements are due to an emphasis on completing an existing Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II grant. This grant was completed in August 2021.

Table of Contents

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses

 

Our selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of payroll and related benefits, professional fees, marketing and channel support costs, and other infrastructure costs such as insurance, information technology and occupancy expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $425,276 and $261,387 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, an increase of $163,888 or 63%. This increase is primarily due to increased staffing costs.

 

Our selling, general and administrative expenses may fluctuate due to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to:

 

 

Additional infrastructure needed to support the expanded commercialization of our ConsERV and Aqualyte products and/or new product applications of our polymer technology for, among other things, administrative personnel, physical space, marketing and channel support and information technology;

 

 

 

 

The issuance and recognition of expenses related to fair value of new share-based awards, which is based on various assumptions including, among other things, the volatility of our stock price; and

 

 

 

 

Additional expenses because of being an SEC reporting company, including, but not limited to, director and officer insurance, director fees, SEC compliance expenses, transfer agent fees, additional staffing, professional fees, and similar expenses.

 

We continue to focus on decreasing selling, general and administrative expenses for all our product efforts.

 

Other Income (Expense)

 

Other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $595,636 compared to income of $1,980,515 for the three months ended March 31, 2021, a decrease of $2,576,151 or 130%. The increased net other expense is primarily due to the lack of income relating to the change in fair value of derivative liabilities and an increased interest expense.

 

Net Income (Loss)

 

Net loss for the three months ending March 31, 2022 was $1,082,530 compared to an income of $1,980,515 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increased loss in the three months ended March 31, 2022 was primarily due to the increase in other expense described above and the increased loss from operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred significant losses since inception, incurred a loss of $1,082,530 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and, as of March 31, 2022, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $58,905,632, total stockholders’ deficit of $9,454,705, negative working capital of $9,381,224 and cash of $80,632. The Company used $658,307 and $171,350 of cash in operations during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, which was funded primarily by proceeds from loans from related parties and equity financings. There is no assurance that any such financing will be available in the future. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is currently pursuing the following sources of short and long-term working capital:

 

 

1.

The Company is actively working with selected targeted parties who are interested in licensing, purchasing the rights to, or establishing a joint venture to commercialize applications of the Company’s technology;

 

 

 

 

2.

The Company continues to seek capital from certain strategic and/or government grant opportunities and related sources. These sources may, pursuant to any agreements that may be developed in conjunction with such funding, assist in the product definition and design, roll-out and channel penetration of products; and

 

 

 

 

3.

The Company increased its value and potential to attract new investors when it completed the exchange program of ‘debt to equity’ in the 2nd quarter of 2021 clearing out all convertible debt in exchange for equity at a fixed price at the end of the second quarter of 2021. This has helped the Company attract growth capital it could not prior to this ‘debt to equity’ exchange.

 

Management and the Board believe:

 

 

1.

In the face of current world events (financial market see-sawing, war, China slow-down, supply chain challenges, etc.) our products remain in demand.

 

 

 

 

2.

The Company’s ability to raise new funds while improved by the solution of the Company’s previous convertible note matter and the uptick in new orders for product, remains challenged. World events find varying degrees of effect on the Company’s going forward ability to raise reasonably priced growth capital in the amount(s) required. This is a challenging time to raise growth capital and become profitable.

 

 

 

 

3.

We believe our current cash position, our projected ability to obtain additional sources of growth capital, and to generate sustainable cash flow from operations and investments is sufficient through the end of the second quarter of 2022 by which time we have confidence additional growth capital will be in place.

 

 

 

 

4.

The Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement in June 2016 pursuant to which the Company issued a Senior Secured Promissory Note that granting the Holder a secured interest in all the assets of the Company. All Parties are working to resolve open issues in the second quarter of 2022.

 

 

 

 

5.

The supply chain impact of recent world events is affecting the Company’s ability to produce product for its customers. Inability to timely acquire specified components may find the Company needing to redesign and recertify its products, or to stop production until the supply chain matter is resolved. In either event this will cause loss of sales revenue, potentially key Dais team members, and customers. The Company is working a number of paths to minimize the impact of this situation.

Table of Contents

 

Any failure by us to timely procure additional financing or investment adequate to fund the ongoing operations, including planned product development initiatives and commercialization efforts, or experience a major supply chain disruption will have material adverse consequences on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as could any unfavorable terms. While we believe the Company’s prospects have improved for funding, there are no assurances we will be able to obtain the financing and planned product development commercialization, and the sales channel challenges continue to mount. The Company may fail to reach an accord with the Senior Secured Note Holder who has deep rights with the assets of the Company pledged as security for repayment of the Note. Accordingly, we may not have the ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Statement of Cash Flows

 

Cash as of March 31, 2022 was $80,632 compared to $773,423 as of December 31, 2021. Cash is primarily used to fund our working capital requirements.

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $658,307 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $171,350 for the same period in 2021. The increase in net cash used was primarily due to an increase in net loss (after adjusting for non-cash items) and a decrease in cash from net working capital accounts. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, net loss (after adjusting for non-cash items) was $670,725. Accounts receivable, inventory and other assets together increased by $68,825. Accounts payable, accrued liabilities, customer deposits and deferred revenue increased in total by $81,243. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, net loss (after adjusting for non-cash items) was $357,624. Accounts receivable, inventory and other assets together increased by $30,004. Accounts payable, accrued liabilities, customer deposits and deferred revenue increased in total by $216,278.

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $34,484 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $6,812 for the same period in 2021, driven by an increase in patent costs and purchases of equipment.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $145,437 for the same period in 2021. The decrease resulted from a decrease in proceeds from notes payable and notes payable due to related parties.

 

Financing and Capital Transactions

 

Paycheck Protection Program Loan

 

On January 25, 2021, the Company received $122,340 in a loan borrowed from a bank pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program under the CARES Act guaranteed by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”), which we expect to be forgiven in part or in full, subject to our compliance with the conditions of the Paycheck Protection Program. If not forgiven, the terms on the note provide for interest at 1% per year and the note mature in 24 months, with 18 monthly payments of $8,146 beginning after the initial 6-month deferral period for payments.

 

On April 29, 2020, the Company received $144,750 in a loan borrowed from a bank pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program under the CARES Act guaranteed by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”). This loan was subsequently forgiven in full on August 29, 2021.

Small Business Administration Loan

 

On June 12, 2020, the Company received $150,000 in a loan borrowed from the SBA. Installment payments, including principal and interest, of $731 monthly, will begin 12 months from the date of the note. The balance of principal and interest will mature 30 years from the date of the note. Interest will accrue at the rate of 3.75% per year. On March 15, 2022, the U.S. Small Business Administration announced that the deferment period for the repayment would be extended to 30 months from the date of the note.

 

Related Party Note

 

On June 24, 2016, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (“Security Agreement”) with the entity known as PKT Strategic Assets, LLC (the “Holder”) pursuant to which the Company issued a Senior Secured Promissory Note for $150,000 (the “Note”). The Note has an interest rate is 12% per annum compounded daily with a minimum interest payment of $2,000. The Note grants the Holder a secured interest in all the assets of the Company. During 2016 to the period ended March 31, 2022, the Holder extended the Note pursuant to various amendments. Pursuant to the amendments, the principal amount and interest totaled $4,311,938 (including fees and other expenses). The Holder’s corporation is controlled by Ms. Tangredi, related to Tim Tangredi: the Company’s CEO and stockholder, and therefore, is a Related Party of the Company. The Company is to pay the Holder the principal, plus all interest and fees due in accordance with terms and conditions of the Security Agreement on the earlier of: (i) the date upon which the Company secures funds, regardless of source, equal to or exceeding, in the aggregate, $1,000,000 or (ii.) November 1, 2021 which has expired. The Holder has not declared the Note in Default as the Parties have reached a tentative agreement to several issues with one being the extension of the Maturity Date (the “Maturity Date”). The Parties are working to complete this agreement during the second quarter of 2022. The Company has recorded interest expense of $149,066 and $63,983 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and outside legal and accounting resources of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act)). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective in alerting them in a timely manner to material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed with the SEC as a result of limited resources, and a lack of segregation of duties.

 

During our most recent quarter, there has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
