Gross margin was approximately 72% in Q2 2013 versus 98% a year earlier, and approximately 88% for the first half versus 97%. Cash interest and bank charges were $4,051 for the quarter and $7,505 for the half-year.
At June 30, 2013, cash was $124, total assets $4,539, current liabilities $239,630, and notes payable $190,000. Working capital deficit was $238,166, compared with $196,155 at December 31, 2012. Stockholders’ deficit was $235,091. Six-month cash fell by $5,775 to $124: operating outflow of $45,180 and investing inflow of $4,405 were partly offset by $35,000 of note financing.
Material changes versus prior comparable periods
- Q2 revenue declined 37% year over year; management attributed the decrease to fewer completed contracts. Seven contracts generated first-half revenue, while three contracts were completed in Q2.
- First-half revenue increased about 14%, but net loss widened by $12,564. Higher cost of sales and operating expenses more than offset the revenue increase.
- Cost of sales rose to $6,127 from $1,446 for the first half, attributed to greater use of specialized independent contractors. First-half operating expenses increased to $82,147, including higher general and administrative costs, management fees, and rent.
- Notes payable increased by $35,000 during the first half. The company also issued a $10,000 demand note to Armitage SA on July 29, 2013.
Outlook, risks, and other notable items
- Management said available capital and operating cash flows were insufficient to sustain current operations for the next 12 months. It estimated at least $500,000 would be needed to expand and execute its sales and marketing strategy.
- The company planned to seek debt and/or equity financing but had no financing arrangements in place and gave no assurance that funding would be available. Equity issuance could dilute existing holders; failure to raise sufficient capital could require curtailing, suspending, or discontinuing operations.
- The filing cites cumulative losses of $283,073 and negative operating cash flow, raising substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Notes issued during the first half are unsecured, bear 5% interest, and are due on demand.
- Management reported disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, citing weaknesses in control evaluation, lack of an audit committee, inadequate documentation of review procedures, and insufficient IT backup procedures.
- Management reported three contracts in process at June 30 with expected revenue of $3,870. The filing reports no legal proceedings and no significant off-balance-sheet arrangements.
