Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2014 and 2013

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

 

Throughout this report, the terms “our”, “we”, “us” and the “Company” refer to Barfresh Food Group Inc., including its subsidiaries. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of Barfresh Food Group Inc. at December 31, 2014 and 2013 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements, instructions to Form 10-Q, and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2014. In management’s opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation to make our financial statements not misleading have been included. The results of operations for the periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The March 31, 2014 balance sheet has been derived from our audited financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2014.

 

Basis of Consolidation

 

The consolidated condensed financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and our wholly owned subsidiaries Barfresh Inc. and Smoothie Inc. All inter-company balances and transactions among the companies have been eliminated upon consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses during the years reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets are comprised of patents, net of amortization. The patent costs are being amortized over the life of the patents, which is twenty years from the date of filing the patent applications. In accordance with ASC Topic 350 Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”), the costs of internally developing other intangible assets, such as patents, are expensed as incurred. However, as allowed by ASC 350, legal fees and similar costs relating to patents have been capitalized.

 

Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss, if any. Depreciation is calculated on a straight line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are being amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the asset or the lease term that includes any expected renewal periods deemed to be reasonably assured. The estimated useful lives used for financial statement purposes are:

 

Furniture and fixtures: 5 years

Equipment: 7 years

Leasehold improvements: 2 years

Vehicle: 5 years

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue from products sold when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the sales price is determinable and collection is reasonably assured.

 

Earnings per Share

 

We calculate net loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, and diluted earnings per share is computed by including common stock equivalents outstanding for the period in the denominator. At December 31, 2014 and 2013 any equivalents would have been anti-dilutive as we had losses for the periods then ended.

 

Research and Development

 

Expenditures for research activities relating to product development and improvement are charged to expense as incurred. We incurred $53,256 and $40,305 in research and development expenses for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $19,949 and $31,866 in research and development expenses for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

(Unaudited)

 

Rent Expense

 

We recognize rent expense on a straight-line basis over the reasonably assured lease term as defined in ASC Topic 840, Leases (“ASC 840”).

 

Recent Pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued that we adopt as of the specified effective date. We believe that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective may have an impact on our results of operations and financial position. ASU Update 2014-09 Revenue From Contracts With Customers (Topic 606) issued May 28, 2014 by FASB and IASB converged guidance on recognizing revenue in contracts with customers with an effective date after December 15, 2016 will be evaluated as to impact and implemented accordingly. In addition, ASU Update 2014-15 Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (Sub Topic 205-40) issued August 27, 2014 by FASB defines management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization’s ability to continue as a going concern. The additional disclosure requirement is effective after December 15, 2016 and will be evaluated as to impact and implemented accordingly.

 

Note 2. Property Plant and Equipment

 

Major classes of property and equipment at December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2014:

 

   December 31, 2014   March 31, 2014 
Furniture and fixtures  $13,331   $13,331 
Equipment   629,563    372,617 
Leasehold Improvements   3,300    3,300 
Vehicle   29,286    - 
    675,480    389,248 
Less: accumulated depreciation   (136,451)   (87,146)
Property and equipment, net of depreciation   539,029    302,102 
Equipment not in service   -    59,976 
   $539,029   $362,078 

 

We recorded depreciation expense related to these assets of $48,817 and $40,314 for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $21,533 and $12,928 for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

 

Note 3. Intangible Assets

 

As of December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2014, intangible assets consist primarily of patent costs of $748,486 and $736,648, less accumulated amortization of $82,000 and $35,994, respectively.

 

The amounts carried on the balance sheet represent cost to acquire, legal fees and similar costs relating to the patents incurred by the Company. Amortization is calculated through the expiration date of the patent, which is December, 2025. The amount charged to expenses for amortization of the patent costs was $46,005 and $15,815 for the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $15,372 and $14,725 for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

 

Estimated amortization expense related to the patent as of December 31, 2014 is as follows:

 

Fiscal Years ending March 31,  Total Amortization 
2015 (three months remaining)  $15,373 
2016   61,492 
2017   61,492 
2018   61,492 
2019   61,492 
Later years   405,145 
   $666,486

Note 4. Short-Term Notes Payable (Related and Unrelated)

 

In December 2013, we closed an offering of $775,000 in short-term notes payable (“Short-Term Notes”), $500,000 of which was purchased by a significant shareholder, $100,000 was purchased by the family trust of an officer, director and significant shareholder and $100,000 was purchased by a company controlled by a director and significant shareholder. During the three months ended December 31, 2014 the $100,000 that was purchased by the family trust of an officer, director and significant shareholder is no longer considered to be owned by the officer as he is no longer, nor is any other related party, the trustee and does not exercise control over the trust and is not classified as a related party debt. The Short-Term Notes bear interest at a rate of 2% per annum and were due and payable on December 20, 2014. We also issued 1,291,667 warrants to the Short-Term Note holders for the right to purchase shares of our common stock. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of our common stock at a price of $0.45 per share, may be exercised on a cashless basis and are exercisable for a period of five years.

 

In accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 470-20 Debt with Conversion and Other Options (“ASC 470”), we first calculated the fair value of the warrants issued and then determined the relative value of the Short-Term Notes.

 

The relative value of the warrants was $298,232, which was the amount recorded as debt discount. The amounts recorded as debt discount was amortized over the life of the note, one year, and charged to interest expense. We estimated the effective interest rate as calculated to be approximately 52% but paid cash at a rate of 2% per annum.

 

We exercised our right to extend the due date of the Short-Term Notes to June 20, 2015. The extended Short-Term Notes bear at the rate of 3% per annum and we required us to issue additional warrants (“Extension Warrants”). We issued 898,842 warrants to the Short-Term Note holders for the right to purchase shares of our common stock. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of our common stock at a price of $0.485 per share, may be exercised on a cashless basis and are exercisable for a period of three years.

 

As discussed above we accounted for the warrants as per the guidance in ASC 470. The relative value of the new warrants, $164,638, was the amount recorded as the new debt discount. The amounts recorded as debt discount is being amortized over the life of the note, six months, and charged to interest expense. We estimated the effective interest rate as calculated to be approximately 53% but pay cash at a rate of 3% per annum.

 

The fair value of the warrant, $0.23 per share, was calculated using the Black-Sholes option pricing model using the following assumptions:

 

Expected life (in years)   3 
Volatility (based on a comparable company)   76.88%
Risk Free interest rate   1.10%

Dividend yield (on common stock)

   -%

 

The balance at December 31, 2014 was comprised of:

 

Convertible notes payable, related and unrelated parties  $775,000 
Unamortized Debt discount   (155,680)
   $619,320 

 

Accrued expenses include interest of $4,700 at December 31, 2014 for this note.

 

Note 5. Convertible Note (Related and Unrelated)

 

In August 2012, we closed an offering of $440,000 of convertible notes, $50,000 of which was purchased by the family trust of a significant shareholder of ours. The notes bear interest at a rate of 12% per annum and were due and payable on September 6, 2013. In addition, the notes were convertible at any time after the original issue date until the notes are no longer outstanding into our common stock at a conversion price of $0.372 per share. We also issued 956,519 warrants to the note holders for the right to purchase shares of our common stock. Each warrant entitled the holder to purchase one share of our common stock at a price of $0.46 per share for a term of seven years.

(Unaudited)

 

When the convertible notes were due we settled the notes by repaying $40,000 of the notes in cash, issuing new convertible notes in the amount of $400,000 and received payment for another note in the amount of $20,000. The new notes bear interest at a rate of 12% per annum and are due and payable on September 6, 2015. In addition the new notes are convertible at any time after the original issue date until the new notes are no longer outstanding, into our common stock at a conversion price of $0.25 per share. We also issued warrants to the new note holders for the right to purchase shares of our common stock. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of our common stock at a price of $0.25 per share. There were 1,680,000 warrants issued. The warrants issued with the original notes were cancelled.

 

In accordance with the guidance in ASC 470, we first calculated the fair value of the warrants issued and then determined the relative value of the notes and determined that there was a beneficial conversion feature.

 

The fair value of the warrants, $0.13 per share, ($216,531 in the aggregate) was calculated using the Black-Sholes option pricing model using the following assumptions:

 

Expected life (in years)   3 
Volatility (based on a comparable company)   85%
Risk Free interest rate   0.91%
Dividend yield (on common stock)   - 

 

The relative value of the warrants to the notes was $142,873, which was the amount recorded as a portion of the debt discount. We also recorded a beneficial conversion feature on the convertible notes of $125,905. The amounts recorded as debt discount will be amortized over the life of the notes, two years, and charged to interest expense. We estimated the effective interest rate as calculated to be approximately 74% but will be paying cash at a rate of 12% per annum.

 

The balance at December 31, 2014 was comprised of:

 

Convertible notes payable, related and unrelated parties  $420,000 
Unamortized Debt discount   (136,757)
   $283,243 

 

Accrued expenses include interest of $897 at December 31, 2014 for this note.

 

The aggregate amount of principal payments due as of December 31, 2014 are as follows:

 

Fiscal Years ending March 31,    
2015  $775,000 
2016   420,000 
   $1,195,000 

 

Note 6. Commitments and Contingencies

 

We lease office space under a non-cancelable operating lease, which expires October 31, 2014. We renewed the lease and it will now expire on November 7, 2016.

 

The aggregate minimum requirements under non-cancelable leases as of December 31, 2014 is as follows:

 

Fiscal Years ending March 31,    
2015   19,011

Note 7. Stockholders’ Equity

 

During the nine months ended December 31, 2014 we issued 550,000 shares of common stock to an officer and two employees of the Company for services rendered. In accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), compensation expense in the amount of $312,490 was recognized in the statement of operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2014.

Note 10. Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes in interim periods in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). We have determined an estimated annual effective tax rate. The rate will be revised, if necessary, as of the end of each successive interim period during our fiscal year to our best current estimate. As of December 31, 2014 the estimated effective tax rate for the year will be zero.

 

There are open statutes of limitations for taxing authorities in federal and state jurisdictions to audit our tax returns from 2009 through the current period. Our policy is to account for income tax related interest and penalties in income tax expense in the statement of operations. There have been no income tax related interest or penalties assessed or recorded.

 

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This pronouncement also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.

 

For the nine months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 we did not have any interest and penalties associated with tax positions. As of December 31, 2014 we did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.

 

Note 11. Business Segments

 

During the nine months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 we operated in only one business segment.

 

Note 12. Subsequent Events

 

Management has evaluated all activity and concluded that no subsequent events have occurred that would require recognition in the financial statements or disclosure in the notes to the financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”), including our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2014 and for the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 and the related notes. References in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section to “us”, “we”, “our” and similar terms refer to Barfresh Food Group Inc. This discussion includes forward-looking statements, as that term is defined in the federal securities laws, based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors. Words such as “anticipate”, “estimate”, “plan”, “continuing”, “ongoing”, “expect”, “believe”, “intend”, “may”, “will”, “should”, “could” and similar expressions are used to identify forward-looking statements.

 

We caution you that these statements are not guarantees of future performance or events and are subject to a number of uncertainties, risks and other influences, many of which are beyond our control, which may influence the accuracy of the statements and the projections upon which the statements are based. Any one or more of these uncertainties, risks and other influences could materially affect our results of operations and whether forward-looking statements made by us ultimately prove to be accurate. Our actual results, performance and achievements could differ materially from those expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether from new information, future events or otherwise.

 

We are engaged in the manufacturing and distribution of ready to blend beverages, particularly, smoothies, shakes and frappes. Our products are portion controlled ready to blend beverage ingredient packs or “beverage packs”. They contain all of the ingredients necessary to make the beverage, including the base (either sorbet, frozen yogurt or ice cream), fruit pieces, juices and ice. Ingredients used are natural, no syrups or powders.

 

We own the domestic and international patents and patents pending, as well as related trademarks for our products. In November 2011 we acquired the patent rights in the United States and Canada. The Canadian patent has been granted and the United States patent is “patent pending”. On October 15, 2013, we acquired all of the related international patent rights, which were filed pursuant to the Patent Cooperation Treaty, have been granted in 13 jurisdictions and are pending in the remainder of the jurisdictions that have signed the treaty. In addition, on October 15, 2013, we purchased all of the trademarks related to the patented products.

 

We have been developing flavor profiles of our smoothies that we believe will be appealing to tastes in the United States. We have been in discussions with a number of companies including both large and small quick service restaurant (“QSR”) chains and national food services companies that serve alternative venues such as stadiums, arenas and universities with national footprints in the United States and have reached preliminary agreements with three potential customers to begin testing in the near future. We are in ongoing negotiations with a number of other companies. In addition to the large retail fast food and fast casual chains, we will sell to food distributors that supply products to the food services market place. Finally, we intend to monetize the international patents outside of our current area of operations, North America, by expanding contract manufacturing to other countries and selling either through selling agents or our own sales personnel or by entering into some form of license or royalty agreements with third parties. We began selling product to Australia during the final months of our fiscal year ended March 31, 2014.

 

To date, we have funded our operations through the sale of our equity securities, issuance of convertible debt, issuance of promissory notes and advances from related parties.

 

The acquisition of the international patents and trademarks on October 15, 2013 was funded through an advance of $672,157 from an affiliate of a director and significant shareholder. Two hundred thousand ($200,000) of the advance was satisfied through the participation in the Company’s December 20, 2013 private placement of notes and warrants by the affiliate of the aforementioned director and significant shareholder and also an affiliate of an officer and director and significant shareholder. The net proceeds to the Company from the private placement that closed on December 20, 2013, including the aforementioned $200,000, was $775,000. The $775,000 in notes bears interest at a rate of 2% per annum and is due and payable on December 20, 2014, with certain provisions for extension. Warrants to purchase 1,291,667 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued to these investors and the warrants have an exercise price of $0.45 per share. In addition to the related parties discussed above, $500,000 of notes was purchased by a significant shareholder. All of the related parties participated in the offering upon the same terms offered to other investors. The balance of the remaining loan for the acquisition of the patents and trademarks, including interest, was paid in cash, in full by the Company.

 

Our plan is to utilize contract manufacturers to manufacture our products. Ice cream manufacturers are best suited for our products. Our first production line has been installed and commissioned in Salt Lake City and is currently producing products being sold to our customers as well as new product development for new large customers.

Although we do not have a contract with any suppliers for the raw materials needed to manufacture smoothie packs we believe that there are a significant number of sources available and we do not anticipate becoming dependent on any one supplier. As demand for our range of products grows, we will look to contract a level of our raw material requirements to ensure continuity of supply.

 

We currently have five sales people selling our product. The process of obtaining orders from potential customers will likely follow the following process:

 

Meeting with and introducing products to customer
Developing flavor profiles for the specific customer
Participating in test marketing of the product with the flavors developed for the customer
Agreeing to a roll out schedule for the customer.

 

Although we have agreements with potential customers representing approximately 10,000 outlets to develop flavors and test our products and have begun to develop flavor profiles for others, we have no assurance that we will supply any chain with our products. During the year ended March 31, 2014 we began shipping our products to one of the customers with whom we have contracts and to a number of smaller customers.

 

In addition to the large retail fast food and fast casual chains, we will sell to food distributors that supply products to the food services market place. Effective July 2, 2014 we entered into an agreement with Sysco Merchandising and Supply Chain Services, Inc. for resale by the Sysco Corporation (“Sysco”) to the foodservice industry of the Company’s ready-to-blend smoothies, shakes and frappes. Our products will be included in Sysco’s national core selection of beverage items, making Barfresh its exclusive single-serve, pre-portioned beverage provider. The Agreement is mutually exclusive; provided however, we may supply our products to other foodservice distributors, but only to the extent required for such foodservice distributors to service multi-unit chain operators with at least 20 units and where Sysco is not such multi-unit chain operators nominated distributor for our products. We have begun shipping to Sysco under this agreement and anticipate a national rollout to approximately 74 distribution centers over the next 12 months.

 

There can be no assurance that we will not become dependent on one or a few major customers.

 

We intend to monetize the international patents outside of our current area of operations, North America, by expanding contract manufacturing to other countries and selling either through selling agents or our own sales personnel or by entering into some form of license or royalty agreements with third parties. Most recently, as part of our expansion due to the acquisition of the international patents, we engaged a leading regional Australian food ingredient supply and product developer as our wholesaler and distributor. Our first order was shipped to Australia in January 2014.

 

We are currently assessing our personnel needs in order to provide the best possible service and to maximize our sales potential in connection with our relationship with Sysco.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The significant accounting policies set forth in Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2014, as updated by Note 1 to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein, and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2014, appropriately represent, in all material respects, the current status of our critical accounting policies and estimates, the disclosure with respect to which is incorporated herein by reference

We only make a nominal profit on these items as they are to accommodate our customers. We have no specific plan as to major sales of equipment to customers in the future. We anticipate that our gross profit percentage for the remainder of 2014 will improve over the current percentage.

Our operations during 2014 and 2013 were directed towards increasing sales and finalizing flavor profiles.

During the nine months ended December 31, 2014 we used cash of $1,839,495 in operations, $235,023 for the purchase of equipment and $11,838 for patents and trademarks. We generated cash flow from the sale of equipment of $28,053

 

We generated $247,000 in financing activity from the sale of common stock during the nine months ended December 31, 2014.

 

Our operations to date have been financed by the sale of securities, the issuance of convertible debt and the issuance of short-term debt, including related party advances. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations with the capital raised we will be required to raise additional funds either in the form of capital or debt. There are no assurances that we will be able to generate the necessary capital or debt to carry out our current plan of operations.

 

We lease office space under a non-cancelable operating lease, which expired October 31, 2014. We renewed the lease and it Will now expire on November 7, 2016.

 

The aggregate minimum requirements under non-cancelable leases as of December 31, 2014 is as follows:

 

Fiscal Years ending March 31,    
2015   19,011 
2016   91,252 
2017   53,231 
   $163,494 

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Not required because we are a smaller reporting company.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(f). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2014.

 

However, management has identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting:

 

  ●  We do not have an audit committee: While we are not currently obligated to have an audit committee, including a member who is an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined in Item 407 of Regulation S-K, under applicable regulations or listing standards; however, it is management’s view that such a committee is an important internal control over financial reporting, the lack of which may result in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of internal control.
     
   ● We do not have a majority of independent directors on our board of directors, which may result in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of our internal control.
     
   ● Inadequate Segregation of Duties: We have an inadequate number of personnel to properly implement internal control.

 

Since the assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting did identify material weaknesses, management considers its internal control over financial reporting to be ineffective.

 

Management believes that the material weakness set forth above did not have an effect on our financial results.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended December 31, 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
