Drone Aviation Holding Corp.

Notes to Interim Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

 

For the Period Ended June 30, 2016

 

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial statements. Accordingly, such interim financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete annual financial statements. The information furnished reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items which are, in the opinion of management, necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2015 has been derived from the Company’s annual financial statements that were audited by an independent registered public accounting firm, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete annual financial statements. The consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.

 

2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

A party is considered to be related to the Company if the party directly or indirectly or through one or more intermediaries controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. A party which can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or if it has an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests is also a related party.

 

The accounts payable due to a related party at December 31, 2015 was comprised of $6,000 of director fees which were paid in January 2016. 

 

3. INVENTORY

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out method. Cost includes materials, labor and manufacturing overhead related to the purchase and production of inventories. The Company regularly reviews inventory quantities on hand, future purchase commitments with its suppliers, and the estimated utility of its inventory. If the review indicates a reduction in utility below carrying value, inventory is reduced to a new cost basis through a charge to cost of goods sold. Allowance for slow moving items decreased $15,383 due to the sale of an aerostat launcher. Inventory consists of the following at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015: 

 

     June 30,
2016
   December 31,
2015

Depreciation expense was $16,572 and $5,160 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Property and equipment consists of the following at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

     $130,507   $136,296 

 

5. INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

On July 20, 2015, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire exclusive commercial software licenses for the “GUST” (Georgia Tech UAV Simulation Tool) autopilot system from Adaptive Flight, Inc. (“AFI”). Through the purchase of the assets of privately held AFI, the Company assumed the transferable licenses from the Georgia Tech Research Corporation, which included flight simulation tools and fault tolerant flight control algorithms. In addition, the Company acquired AFI’s dedicated flight computer and additional related hardware and airframes. The Company paid $100,000 in immediately available funds and $100,000 to be held in escrow. In addition, the Company issued 150,000 shares of unregistered common stock valued at $8.40 per share on the date of agreement, to be held in escrow. 

 

The Company had a milestone of twelve months from July 20, 2015 to complete a technology Integration Plan, the non-completion of which may result in the return of the purchased assets and termination of the Company’s obligations to release the escrow cash and shares. Additional milestones include exclusive, no-cost and perpetual licenses to all contributing intellectual property included or related to the purchased assets. As such time as all milestones are met, one-half of the escrow shares will be released to AFI. Upon termination of the Escrow Agreement, anticipated to be twelve months from the closing of the asset purchase, if all milestones have been met, the remaining escrowed shares will be released to AFI, but if all milestones have not been met, the escrowed cash and escrowed shares will be released to the Company and the purchased assets will be returned to AFI. According to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, if the escrow share value is less than $1,400,000, the Company must issue an additional number of unregistered shares, not to exceed 50,000 shares. At December 31, 2015, the value of the 150,000 shares was $3.23 per share, or $484,500. The Company recorded $161,500 as an additional liability and expense at December 31, 2015 for the cost of 50,000 shares at $3.23 per share.

 

On June 3, 2016, the Integration Plan was deemed to be completed. At June 3, 2016, the value of the 150,000 shares was $3.01 per share, or $451,150. The additional liability was reduced to $150,500 for the cost of 50,000 shares at $3.01 per share. The Company recorded the $11,000 reduction in the additional liability through the statement of operations at June 3, 2016. The Company began amortizing the $1,460,000 of purchased assets over a sixty month period on June 3, 2016 in the amount of $24,333 per month. Total amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2016 is $24,333. The Company and AFI instructed the Escrow Agent to disburse the cash and 150,000 shares of stock. The Company issued an additional 50,000 shares valued at $150,500 as described above.

 

The asset acquisition did not qualify as a business combination under ASC 805-10 and has been accounted for as a regular asset purchase.

6. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

On October 29, 2015, a 1:40 reverse split of the Company stock occurred and the effect has been applied retroactively for disclosure purposes.

 

The Company issued a total of 1,785,968 shares of common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2016, as described below:

 

The Company issued 2,500 shares of common stock pursuant to conversions of an aggregate of 1,000 shares of Series A preferred stock.

 

The Company issued 183,468 shares of common stock pursuant to conversions of an aggregate of 73,387 shares of Series C preferred stock.

 

The Company issued 50,000 shares of common stock pursuant to conversions of an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of Series D preferred stock.

 

The Company issued 50,000 shares of common stock pursuant to conversions of an aggregate of 1,999,998 shares of Series F preferred stock.

 

The Company issued 50,000 shares of common stock pursuant to conversions of an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of Series G preferred stock.

 

The Company issued 50,000 shares of restricted common stock to AFI, as discussed above in Note 5, after all milestones had been met as a requirement of the terms of the Escrow Agreement because the value of the escrowed shares fell below $1,400,000 and triggered a ‘make whole’ provision.

 

The Company issued 100,000 shares of restricted common stock with monthly vesting provisions to a newly-appointed director, Lt. Gen. Michael T. Flynn, for 24 months of services. Lt. Gen. Flynn can earn a pro rata portion of the shares, calculated based on the twenty four-month vesting schedule. The Company recognized a total of $24,250 expense for the pro rata portion of shares earned by Lt. Gen. Flynn during the six months ended June 30, 2016.

 

The Company issued 150,000 shares of restricted common stock with monthly vesting provisions to Strategic Advisory Board members, Dr. Philip Frost and Steven Rubin, for 12 month’s services. The advisors can earn a pro rata portion of the shares, calculated based on the twelve-month vesting period, in the event the service agreements are terminated prior to the expiration date as described in the agreements. The Company recognized a total of $75,000 expense for the pro rata portion of shares earned by the two members during the six months ended June 30, 2016.

 

The Company issued 1,150,000 shares of restricted common stock outside of the 2015 Equity Plan to Jay Nussbaum, Felicia Hess, Daniyel Erdberg, Kendall Carpenter, and Kevin Hess pursuant to Restricted Stock Agreements. The shares will vest upon consummation of a significant equity and/or debt financing at least equal to the November 2015 financing which raised $3,725,000 provided that the holder remains engaged by the Company through the vesting date. Stock based compensation of $1,115,500 was recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2016 based on management’s estimate that the shares will be fully vested by October 2016.

 

 F-6 
 

 

On June 1, 2015, the Company issued 50,000 shares of restricted common stock with monthly vesting provisions to the Chairman of the Board for twenty-four months services pursuant to a Director Agreement. The Chairman can earn a pro rata portion of the shares, calculated on a twenty-four month vesting period, in the event the Chairman relinquishes his position and Board seat prior to the expiration date of the Director Agreement. The Company recognized a total of $135,000 expense for the portion of such shares earned by the Chairman during the six months ended June 30, 2016.

 

On September 4, 2015, the Company issued 450,000 shares of restricted common stock to four management employees and one director pursuant to stock award agreements. The shares will vest upon consummation of a $4,000,000 equity or debt financing provided that the holder remains engaged by the Company through the vesting date. Stock based compensation of $604,440 was recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2016 based on management’s estimate that the shares would be fully vested by February 4, 2016, when the Board deemed vesting occurred with the issuance of $4,000,000 in common stock on November 20, 2015.

 

7. PREFERRED STOCK

 

On October 29, 2015, a 1:40 reverse split of the Company stock occurred and the effect has been applied retroactively for disclosure purposes.

 

All of the preferred stock of the Company is convertible into common shares. The Series A and Series C stock conversion ratio is 1 to 2.5 common shares. The Series B, B-1, D, E, F and G stock conversion ratio is 1 to 0.025 common shares. All preferred stock has voting rights equal to the number of shares it would have on an ‘as if converted’ basis subject to any ownership limitations governing such preferred shares. All preferred stock is entitled to dividends rights equal to the number of shares it would have on an ‘as if converted’ basis. None of the preferred stock is redeemable, participating nor callable.

10. OKLAHOMA TECHNOLOGY COMMERCIALIZATION CENTER

 

At the time of the April 30, 2014 merger between MacroSolve, Inc. (“MacroSolve”) and the Company, MacroSolve had a $110,000 balance on its refundable award from the State of Oklahoma Technology Business Finance Program. The Company has not made any reductions in the award, so the Company is in default. The parties are discussing a release from the debt that is unrelated to the current operations.

 

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

As the Company previously reported in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, on January 30, 2012, MacroSolve filed suit against Newegg Inc. (“Newegg”) in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas alleging infringement of one or more claims of United States Patent #7,822,816 (the “‘816 Patent”). On March 7, 2014, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) sent MacroSolve an office action related to an ex parte reexamination of the ‘816 Patent, which rejected all the claims in the ‘816 patent (the “USPTO Office Action”). As a result of the USPTO Office Action, on March 31, 2014, MacroSolve dismissed its patent enforcement case against Newegg with prejudice. On April 6, 2015, the court denied a motion by Newegg for recovery of its legal fees of approximately $400,000 from MacroSolve. On April 24, 2015, Newegg filed a Notice of Appeal with the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, which issued an opinion on February 9, 2016, affirming the district court’s denial of Newegg’s motion to recover its legal fees. On May 9, 2016, Newegg filed a Petition for a Writ of Certiorari with the United States Supreme Court. On June 13, 2016, the United States Supreme Court issued an order denying that petition. Consequently, MacroSolve prevailed in the matter..

 

On May 16, 2016, Banco Popular North America (“Banco”) filed a lawsuit in Duval County, Florida in the Circuit Court of the Fourth Judicial Circuit against Aerial Products Corporation d/b/a Southern Balloon Works (“Aerial Products”), Kevin M. Hess, LTAS, and the Company to collect on a delinquent Small Business Administration loan that Banco made in 2007 to Aerial Products with Mr. Hess as the personal guarantor. LTAS and the Company filed an Answer on June 30, 2016. It is our position that neither LTAS nor the Company are continuations of Aerial Products, and LTAS and the Company have denied all allegations made by Banco and will vigorously defend that position. The Company has not recorded any contingent liability expense because the incurrence of loss is considered remote. Settlement discussions between Mr. Hess and Banco are ongoing.

 

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On July 28, 2016, the Company issued 5,000 options from the 2015 Equity Plan to one employee as an employment bonus. These options were immediately vested and were granted with an exercise price of $3.77 and the expiration date of July 28, 2019.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2016, the Company had approximately $1,112,000 cash compared to approximately $2,660,000 cash at December 31, 2015, a decrease of $1,548,000 which was primarily used in operating activities.

Financing Activities:

 

There were no financing activities during the first six months of 2016. Financing activities during the first half of 2015 were comprised of cash proceeds totaling $986,000 from issuance of Series G preferred stock.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that materially effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The Company’s accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 of the Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 4, 2016. As disclosed therein, the preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The Company believes that the following discussion addresses the Company’s most critical accounting policies, which are those that are most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments.

 

Accounts Receivable and Credit Policies:

 

Trade accounts receivable consist of amounts due from the sale of tethered aerostats, refurbishments, accessories, spare parts and delivery and installation of aerostats.  Accounts receivable are uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms requiring payment within 30 days of receipt of the invoice.  The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts based on historical collection experience and a review of the current status of trade accounts receivable.  At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company deemed no accounts receivable as uncollectible.

 

Revenue Recognition and Unearned Revenue:

 

The Company recognizes revenue when all four of the following criteria are met: 1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; 2) delivery has occurred and title has transferred or services have been rendered; 3) our price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and 4) collectability is reasonably assured. We record unearned revenue as a liability and the associated costs of sales as work in process inventory. There is a balance of $480,000 in accounts receivable at June 30, 2016 for sales on account and no balance in unearned revenue.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments:

 

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a Black-Scholes option pricing model, in accordance with ASC 815-15 “Derivative and Hedging” to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

As a smaller reporting company, as that term is defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information required by this Item.

   

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

  

Based on management’s evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2016, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. Except as discussed below, we are not currently aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or operating results.

 

MacroSolve, Inc. v Newegg Inc. (U.S.D.C. E.D. TX) Case No. 6:12-cv-46-MSS-KNM

  

As previously reported in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, on January 30, 2012, MacroSolve filed suit against Newegg in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas alleging infringement of one or more claims of United States Patent #7,822,816 (the “‘816 Patent”). On March 7, 2014, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) sent MacroSolve an office action related to an ex parte reexamination of the ‘816 Patent, which rejected all the claims in the ‘816 Patent (the “USPTO Office Action”). As a result of the USPTO Office Action, on March 31, 2014, MacroSolve dismissed its patent enforcement case against Newegg with prejudice. On April 6, 2015, the court denied a motion by Newegg for recovery of its legal fees of approximately $400,000 from MacroSolve. On April 24, 2015, Newegg filed a Notice of Appeal with the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, which issued an opinion on February 9, 2016 affirming the district court’s denial of Newegg’s motion to recover its legal fees. On May 9, 2016, Newegg filed a Petition for a Writ of Certiorari with the United States Supreme Court. On June 13, 2016, the United States Supreme Court issued an order denying that petition. Consequently, MacroSolve prevailed in this matter.

 

Banco Popular North America. v Aerial Products Corporation d/b/a Southern Balloon Works, et al. (Fourth Judicial Circuit Court, Duval County Florida-Civil Division) Case No. 16:2016:CA-003343

 

On May 16, 2016, Banco Popular North America (“Banco”) filed a lawsuit in Duval County, Florida in the Circuit Court of the Fourth Judicial Circuit against Aerial Products, Kevin M. Hess, LTAS and the Company to collect on a delinquent Small Business Administration loan that Banco made in 2007 to Aerial Products with Mr. Hess as the personal guarantor. LTAS and the Company filed an Answer on June 30, 2016. It is our position that neither LTAS nor the Company are continuations of Aerial Products and we have denied all allegations made by Banco and will vigorously defend that position. The Company has not recorded any contingent liability expense because the incurrence of loss is considered remote. Settlement discussions between Mr. Hess and Banco are ongoing.

 

Other than as set forth above, there are no material claims, actions, suits, proceedings, inquiries, labor disputes or investigations pending.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

 

The Company issued a total of 1,450,000 shares of common stock during the three months ended June 30, 2016, on a post-Reverse Split basis, as described below.

 

The Company issued 50,000 shares of common stock to AFI on June 3, 2016 after all milestones had been met as a requirement of the terms of the Escrow Agreement since the value of the escrowed shares fell below $1,400,000 and triggered a ‘make whole’ provision.

 

The Company issued 100,000 shares of common stock on April 27, 2016 to newly-appointed Lt. Gen. Flynn for 24 months of service. Lt. Gen. Flynn can earn a pro rata portion of the shares, calculated based on the twenty four-month vesting schedule.

 

The Company issued 150,000 shares of restricted common stock on May 2, 2016 with monthly vesting provisions to Strategic Advisory Board members, Dr. Philip Frost and Steven Rubin, for 12 month’s services. The advisors can earn a pro rata portion of the shares, calculated based on the twelve-month vesting period, in the event the service agreements are terminated prior to the expiration date as described in the agreements.

 

The Company issued 1,150,000 shares of restricted common stock outside of the 2015 Equity Plan to Jay Nussbaum, Felicia Hess, Daniyel Erdberg, Kendall Carpenter, and Kevin Hess on April 27, 2016 pursuant to Restricted Stock Agreements. The shares will vest upon consummation of a significant equity and/or debt financing at least equal to the November 2015 financing which raised $3,725,000 provided that the holder remains engaged by the Company through the vesting date. 

 

The securities referenced above were offered and sold solely to “accredited investors” in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Rule 506 of Regulation D and/or Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act as a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering.
