SCI ENGINEERED MATERIALS, INC

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 i 

Note 1.  Business Organization and Purpose

SCI Engineered Materials, Inc. (“SCI,” or the “Company”), an Ohio corporation, was incorporated in 1987. The Company operates in  i one segment as a global supplier and manufacturer of advanced materials for Physical Vapor Deposition (“PVD”) thin film applications. The Company is focused on markets within the photonics industry including Aerospace, Automotive, Defense, Glass, Optical Coatings and Solar. Substantially all revenues are generated from customers with multi-national operations. The Company develops innovative customized solutions enabling commercial success through collaboration with end users and Original Equipment Manufacturers.

 / 

 i 

Note 2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 i 

Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods presented have been included. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

 i 

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of 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.

 i 

Revenue Recognition - The Company enters into contracts with its customers that generally represent purchase orders specifying general terms and conditions, order quantities and per unit product prices. The Company has determined that each unit of product purchased represents a separate performance obligation. The Company satisfies its performance obligations and recognizes revenue at a point in time when control of a unit of product is transferred to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring products. For the majority of product sales, transfer of control occurs when the products are shipped from the Company’s manufacturing facility to the customer. The cost of delivering products to the Company’s customers is recorded as a component of cost of products sold. Those costs may include the amounts paid to a third party to deliver the products. Any freight costs billed to and paid by a customer are included in revenue.  

The Company considers collectability of amounts due under a contract to be probable upon inception of a sale based on an evaluation of the credit worthiness of each customer. The Company sells its products typically under agreements with 30-day payment terms. The Company does not normally include extended payment terms or significant financing components in contracts with customers. The majority of the Company’s contracts have an obligation to transfer products within one year. Thus, the Company elects to use the practical expedient where incremental cost of obtaining a contract, such as commissions, is expensed when incurred because the amortization period for those costs is one year or less. The Company treats shipping and handling activities that occur after control of the product transfers as fulfillment activities, and therefore, does not account for shipping and handling costs as a separate performance obligation. Customer deposits are funds received in advance from customers and are recognized as revenue when the Company has transferred control of product to the customer. Product revenues are recognized upon shipment of goods as the customer has assumed the significant risks and rewards of ownership and the Company is entitled to payment at this point. Service revenues are recognized upon completion as the customer cannot realize the benefit of the service until fully completed.

All revenue was from the photonics industry during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The top two customers represented approximately  i 89% and  i 84% of total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. International shipments resulted in  i 1% and  i 2% of total revenue for the first nine months of 2022 and 2021, respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 i 

Employee Retention Credit (ERC) - The Company qualified for federal government assistance through Employee Retention Credit provisions of the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 during the first nine months of 2021 in the amount of $ i 255,507 during the first quarter of 2021, $ i 151,701 during the second quarter of 2021, and $ i 153,713 during the third quarter of 2021. The purpose of the Employee Retention Credit was to encourage employers to keep employees on the payroll, even if they were not working during the covered period because of the coronavirus outbreak. These funds were recorded in the Statements of Income as an offset to payroll costs in their respective expense lines and as a tax receivable on the balance sheets.  A balance of $ i  i 105,000 /  appears as a tax receivable on the balance sheets at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

 / 
 i 

Note 3.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 “Credit Losses - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” ASU No. 2016-13 significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets, including accounts and notes receivables, by replacing today’s “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model under which allowances will be recognized based on expected rather than incurred losses. ASU No. 2016-13 will become effective for us in the first quarter of 2023. We are evaluating the impact that the adoption of this update will have on our financial statements; however, it is not expected to be material.

 i 

Note 4.  Common Stock and Stock Options

Stock based compensation cost for all stock awards is based on the grant date fair value and recognized over the required service (vesting) period. Noncash stock-based compensation expense was $ i 8,670 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021. Noncash stock-based compensation expense was $ i 40,642 and $ i 39,233 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively.

Unrecognized compensation expense was $ i 2,758 as of September 30, 2022 and will be recognized through the second quarter of 2023. There was no tax benefit recorded for this compensation cost as the expense relates to incentive stock options that do not qualify for a tax deduction until, and only if, a qualifying disposition occurs.

The non-employee Board members received compensation of  i 6,550 and  i 7,605 aggregate shares of common stock of the Company during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The stock had an aggregate value of $ i 22,470 and $ i 22,475 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and was recorded as non-cash stock compensation expense in the financial statements.

Employees received compensation of  i 4,500 and  i 4,804 aggregate shares of common stock of the Company during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectfully. These shares had an aggregate value of $ i 14,625 and $ i 13,211 and was recorded as non-cash stock compensation expense in the financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, a total of  i 30,181 stock options were exercised by management.

The cumulative status of options granted and outstanding at September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, as well as options which became exercisable in connection with the Company’s stock option plans is summarized as follows:

Note 7.  Earnings Per Share

Basic income per share is calculated as income applicable to common shareholders divided by the weighted average of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is calculated as diluted income applicable to common shareholders divided by the diluted weighted average number of common shares. Diluted weighted average number of common shares gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. Diluted earnings per share exclude all diluted potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. All common stock options listed in Note 4 that were out-of-the-money or anti-dilutive were excluded from diluted earnings per share. The following is provided to reconcile the earnings per share calculations:

Note 8.   Notes Payable

On April 17, 2020, the Company entered into an unsecured promissory note under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”), with a principal amount of $ i 325,300. Under the terms of the CARES Act, PPP loan recipients were eligible to apply for, and be granted, forgiveness for all or a portion of loans granted. Such forgiveness was subject to limitations and ongoing rulemaking by the SBA, based on the use of loan proceeds for payroll costs and mortgage interest, rent or utility costs and the maintenance of employee and compensation levels. The Company applied for forgiveness of the entire amount of the loan during the fourth quarter of 2020, and the SBA approved the Forgiveness Application in full during the first quarter of 2021. This amount is included in the Statements of Income as gain on extinguishment of debt for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

The Company renewed its line of credit with Fifth Third Bank for $ i 1 million during August 2022. The line of credit bears interest equal to the rate of interest per annum established by Fifth Third Bank as its Prime Rate. This line of credit has a maturity date of August 29, 2023.  i No amounts were drawn on this line of credit as of September 30, 2022.

Note 9.  Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 is based on our projected annual effective tax rate for fiscal year 2022, adjusted for permanent differences and specific items that are required to be recognized in the period in which they are incurred.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities result from temporary differences in the recognition of income and expense for tax and financial reporting purposes. The Company had net operating loss carryforwards available for federal and state tax purposes of approximately $ i 2,100,000 at December 31, 2021, which expire in varying amounts through  i 2041.

As of December 31, 2021, management determined that there was sufficient positive evidence to conclude that it is more likely than not that deferred taxes of $ i 663,820 were realizable principally because we achieved five consecutive years of pretax income, expect profits to continue for the foreseeable future and implemented new efficiencies in the Company’s manufacturing process. As of each reporting date, management considers new evidence, both positive and negative, that could affect its view of the future realization of deferred tax assets. Accordingly, management determined that  i no valuation allowance was necessary, and the deferred tax asset was $ i 375,820 at September 30, 2022.

Note 10. Operating Lease

The Company entered into an operating lease with a third party on March 18, 2014 for its headquarters in Columbus, Ohio. The terms of the lease include monthly payments ranging from $ i 9,200 to $ i 9,700 with a maturity date of November 30, 2024. The Company has the option to extend the lease period for an additional  i five years beyond the original expiration date. There are no restrictions or covenants associated with the lease. The lease costs were approximately $ i 84,300 and $ i 82,600 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

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 Statements and Notes contained herein and with those in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which are intended to be covered by the safe harbors created thereby. Those statements include, but may not be limited to, all statements regarding our intent, belief, and expectations, such as statements concerning our future profitability and operating and growth strategy. Words such as “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “will,” “may,” “should,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” “likely” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned that all forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in other statements we make involve risks and uncertainties including, without limitation, the factors set forth under the caption “Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, and other factors detailed from time to time in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. One or more of these factors have affected, and in the future could affect our business and financial condition and could cause actual results to differ materially from plans and projections. Although we believe the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, there can be no assurance that any of the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will prove to be accurate.

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement or statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statements are made or reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, unless necessary to prevent such statements from becoming misleading. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all factors, nor can we assess the impact of each such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

Executive Summary

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had record total revenue of $17,648,275. Higher pricing, primarily attributable to increased raw material costs, higher volume and product mix were key factors that contributed to the increase.

Gross profit was $3,543,352 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $2,667,958 for the same nine months in 2021. The increase was due to higher volume, favorable product mix, and improved manufacturing efficiency. The first nine months of 2021 included a reduction of costs of approximately $323,000 related to the Employee Retention Credit (“ERC”) enacted in 2020.

Operating expenses were $1,727,901 and $1,187,353 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The first nine months of 2021 included a reduction of expenses of approximately $238,000 related to the ERC.

Income from operations was $1,815,451 and $1,480,605 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

We received additional manufacturing equipment during the third quarter of 2022. This included a vacuum hot press that enables production of higher temperature materials with increased capacity. It was purchased and installed for approximately $500,000 which was paid in cash.  

Consistent with our growth strategy, we have identified niche markets that can benefit from our expertise in custom powder solutions, such as near-infrared doped phosphors and short-wave infrared applications. These applications enable extended life of phosphors for specific nighttime identification needs of defense personnel and first responders.

New initiatives are also being pursued that utilize our vacuum hot presses, cold isostatic press, and kilns for increased production and development projects, including diffusion bonding. We recently manufactured and sold conductive metal oxides for direct current sputtering of Tungsten Oxide and Molybdenum Oxide materials. We continue to invest in developing new products for all our markets including specialty bonding processes for Aerospace customers. Those products continue to require research and development expense to accelerate time to market.

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

Several issues continue to affect national and global market conditions. First, inflation remains at historically high levels, impacting labor, raw material costs and transportation expenses. We have generally been able to pass on these increases to customers but are unable to predict how future or sustained inflationary pressure may impact our results. Second, supply chain disruptions are adversely impacting customers in certain markets. Thus far, we have not experienced material adverse effects regarding product shipments; however, timely deliveries and sourcing of certain materials is of increased concern. Third, published articles and corporate announcements continue to address the global semiconductor chip shortage, which is anticipated to continue into 2023. This shortage is affecting some of our customers which could impact the Company’s revenue, volume, and profitability. Fourth, there are increased political uncertainties affecting global markets. Although we currently have no customers or vendors in Russia or Ukraine, we continue to monitor the situation as some raw material comes from Russia for the PVD industry. We continue to actively monitor these developments, including ongoing contact with our suppliers and customers, including identifying additional suppliers and adapting to our customers’ specific circumstances and forecasts.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. Since then, most federal, state, and local executive orders have been lifted. Based on ongoing conversations with customers, we do not expect to experience any material impairments or changes in accounting judgements related to COVID-19. We continue to follow practical safety procedures as needed. During the first nine months of 2022, we resumed in-person meetings, participated onsite in industry trade shows, and continue to maintain regular contact, via phone and other electronic means, with all customers and suppliers.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 (unaudited) compared to three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 (unaudited):

Revenue

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we had revenue of $5,816,838. This was an increase of $605,669 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had record total revenue of $17,648,275. This was an increase of $7,442,747 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Higher pricing, primarily attributable to increased raw material costs, higher volume and product mix were key factors that contributed to the increase.

Gross profit

Gross profit was $1,171,583 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $1,302,368 for the same three months in 2021, a decrease of $130,785. Increased raw material costs in the third quarter of 2022 combined with the impact of the Employee Retention Credit (ERC) for the third quarter of 2021 offset higher volume and product mix. Gross profit was $3,543,352 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $2,667,958 for the first nine months of 2021, an increase of $875,394. The increase in gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was due to higher revenue compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue (gross margin) was 20.1% for the third quarter and first nine months of 2022 compared to 25.0% for the third quarter of 2021 and 26.1% for the 2021 year-to-date period. The lower gross margin in 2022 compared to a year ago was due to higher raw material costs and product mix during 2022. The Employee Retention Credit (ERC) reduced cost of revenue in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, by $84,763 and $323,038, respectively.

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

General and administrative expense

General and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, was $374,193 and $306,997, respectively, an increase of 21.9%.  This increase is attributed to higher compensation of $25,369, disposal of assets with net book value of $18,860, and the ERC of $21,000 which reduced expenses in the third quarter of 2021. General and administrative expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, was $1,170,782 and $878,586, respectively, an increase of 33.3%. During 2022 there was an increase in compensation of approximately $118,788, which included an increase in staff. Business liability insurance (due to higher revenue) and professional fees, primarily related to SEC compliance costs for legal, accounting and stockholder relations fees, increased approximately $52,000. The nine months ended September 30, 2021 included the ERC of $78,000.

Research and development expense

Research and development expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022, was $93,081 compared to $56,612 for the same period in 2021, an increase of 64.4%. Research and development expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was $272,197 compared to $149,208 for the same period in 2021, an increase of 82.4%. The ERC of $26,950 and $88,700 was included in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. Specialty materials are being researched for use in niche markets which include custom applications and additive manufacturing. Our development efforts utilize a disciplined innovation approach focused on accelerating time to market for these applications and involve ongoing research and development expense.

Marketing and sales expense

Marketing and sales expense was $94,594 and $61,732 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. This was an increase of 53.2%. Marketing and sales expense was $284,922 and $159,559 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively, an increase of 78.6%.

Travel expenses increased approximately $2,000 and $41,000 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, versus the same periods in 2021, as we resumed in-person meetings with some customers and participated onsite in additional industry trade shows. The three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, included the ERC of $21,000 and $71,183, respectively.

Stock compensation expense

Included in total expenses were noncash stock-based compensation costs of $8,670 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, and $40,642 and $39,233 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. Compensation expense for all stock-based awards is based on the grant date fair value and recognized over the required service (vesting) period. Unrecognized non-cash stock-based compensation expense was $2,758 as of September 30, 2022 and will be recognized through the second quarter of 2023.

Interest

Interest income was $363 for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Interest expense was $8,156 for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Interest expense was $11,899 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and $24,808 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The improvement during 2022 was due to final payments of multiple finance leases during 2021 and the increase in interest rates during the third quarter of 2022.

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

Income taxes

Income tax expense was $167,375 and $200,189 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively, and $311,575 and $338,282 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. At December 31, 2021, the deferred tax asset was $663,820. As of each reporting date, management considers new evidence, both positive and negative, that could affect its view of the future realization of deferred tax assets. Accordingly, management determined that no valuation allowance was necessary, and the deferred tax asset was $375,820 at September 30, 2022.

Income applicable to common stock

Income applicable to common stock for the three months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, was $442,703 and $662,644, respectively. The third quarter of 2021 included the ERC of $153,713 which reduced overall expenses. Income applicable to common stock for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, was $1,491,977 and $1,424,701, respectively. The increase was primarily the result of higher revenue and gross profit. Included in the first nine months of 2021 was the ERC which reduced overall expenses by $560,921.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash

As of September 30, 2022, cash on hand was $5,614,257 compared to $4,140,942 at December 31, 2021. The increase was principally due to record total revenue and higher gross profit for the first nine months of 2022.

Working capital

At September 30, 2022 working capital was $5,443,552 compared to $3,907,135 at December 31, 2021, an increase of $1,536,417 or 39.3%. Cash increased $1,473,315, inventories increased $379,370, accounts payable increased $256,365 and receivables increased $156,805 while prepaid expenses decreased $586,565, and customer deposits decreased $442,378.

Cash from operations

Net cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was $2,051,679 and $1,780,698 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. In addition to the net income generated, this included depreciation and amortization of $308,791 and $329,104, and noncash stock-based compensation costs of $40,642 and $39,233 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively.

The decrease in prepaid expenses was related to the receipt of inventory paid for in December 2021 and received in January 2022. Inventories and accounts payable increased due to orders received during the third quarter and throughout the first nine months of 2022. Customer orders remain strong, and deposits are lower as customers have monitored inventory more closely  with continued emphasis on intra-quarter shipments.

Cash from investing activities

Cash of $511,399 and $615,088 was used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and September 30, 2021, respectively, for the acquisition of production equipment. This included a vacuum hot press that enables production of higher temperature materials with increased capacity. It was purchased and installed for approximately $500,000. A deposit of $220,075 was paid in the first quarter of 2021 for this vacuum hot press and the remaining amount was paid in cash during the third quarter of 2022.

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

Cash from financing activities

Cash of $72,131 and $123,715 was used in financing activities for principal payments to third parties for finance lease obligations during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The decrease was due to final payments of multiple finance leases during 2021. A cash dividend payment of $24,152 was made to owners of our Series B preferred stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Debt outstanding

Total debt outstanding was $171,087 at September 30, 2022, compared to $243,218 at December 31, 2021, a decrease of 29.7%. As previously mentioned, cash of $72,131 was used for principal payments for finance lease obligations during 2022.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements including special purpose entities.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Note 2 to the Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Financial Statements. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, accounting for the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory allowances, property and equipment depreciable lives, patents and licenses useful lives, revenue recognition, income tax expense, deferred tax assets and liabilities, realization of deferred tax assets, stock-based compensation and assessing changes in which impairment of certain long-lived assets may occur. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The following critical accounting policies are impacted significantly by judgments, assumptions and estimates used in the preparation of the Financial Statements. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on our assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts and the aging of the accounts receivable. If there is a deterioration of a major customer’s credit worthiness or actual defaults are higher than our historical experience, our estimates of the recoverability of amounts due us could be adversely affected. Inventory purchases and commitments are based upon future demand forecasts. If there is a sudden and significant decrease in demand for our products or there is a higher risk of inventory obsolescence because of rapidly changing technology and customer requirements, we may be required to increase our inventory allowances and our gross margin could be adversely affected. The tax valuation allowance is based on our consideration of new evidence, both positive and negative, that could affect our view of the future realization of deferred tax assets. If we were to determine we would not be able to realize all or part of the deferred tax asset in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would be necessary which would reduce our net income for that period. Depreciable and useful lives estimated for property and equipment, licenses and patents are based on initial expectations of the period of time these assets and intangibles will benefit us. Changes in circumstances related to a change in our business, change in technology or other factors could result in these assets becoming impaired, which could adversely affect the value of these assets.

Our management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s 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, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and implemented, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely discussions regarding required disclosure.

Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective. Disclosure controls and procedures are defined by Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act as controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Inherent Limitations over Internal Controls

Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management is responsible for the consistency, integrity, and presentation of information. We fulfill our responsibility by maintaining systems of internal control designed to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded, and transactions are executed in accordance with established procedures. The concept of reasonable assurance is based upon recognition that the cost of the controls should not exceed the benefit derived. We believe our systems of internal control provide this reasonable assurance.

The Board of Directors exercises its oversight role with respect to our systems of internal control primarily through its Audit Committee, which is comprised of independent directors. The Committee oversees our financial reporting, quarterly reviews, and audits to assess whether their quality, integrity, and objectivity are sufficient to protect shareholders’ investments.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting for the three months ended September 30, 2022, that materially affected or were reasonably likely to materially affect our disclosure controls and procedures. Additionally, there were no changes in our internal controls that could materially affect our disclosure controls and procedures subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
