Explanatory Note

 

Restatement Background

 

On April 12, 2023, the management of Scientific Industries, Inc. (the "Company"), together with the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Audit Committee") reached a determination that the Company’s consolidated audited financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the Company’s consolidated unaudited financial statements as of and for the quarter period ended September 30, 2022 included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC, collectively the “Non-Reliance Periods”, should no longer be relied upon because of material misstatements contained in those consolidated financial statements. The Company’s management and the Audit Committee discussed the matters with Macias Gini & O'Connell LLP (“MGO”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, and determined to restate its consolidated audited financial statements for the Non-Reliance Periods. During the preparation of its audited financial statements for the six-month transition period from July 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022, the Company identified an error in the assessment of a full valuation allowance against the consolidated net deferred tax asset and in addition, the Company identified an error in the use of future projections and weighted average cost of capital used in the annual goodwill impairment testing of the Company’s Bioprocessing Systems segment. Upon further analysis of the errors, the Company has determined that it should have allocated a full valuation allowance to the consolidated net deferred tax asset and applied a goodwill impairment charge to the Bioprocessing Systems reporting unit in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022.

 

Restatement of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements

The Company has restated certain information within this Annual Report on Form 10-KT, including the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022, and the relevant unaudited interim financial information for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2022.

 

See Note 19 ("Restatement of Prior Period"), in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, for additional information on the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022.

 

See Note 20 ("Quarterly Financial Data (Unaudited)"), in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, for such restated information on the quarter period ended September 30, 2022.

 

Control Considerations

In connection with the restatement, management has assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Based on this assessment, the Company identified a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting resulting in the conclusion by the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer that the internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022. Management is taking additional steps to remediate the material weakness in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting. See Item 9A, Controls and Procedures, for additional information related to this material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting and the related remedial measures.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

The Company and its representatives may from time to time make written or oral forward-looking statements with respect to the Company’s annual or long-term goals, including statements contained in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in its reports to stockholders.

 

The words or phrases “will likely result”, “will be”, “will”, “are expected to”, “will continue to”, “is anticipated”, “estimate”, “project” or similar expressions identify “forward- looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or projected. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made.

 

PART I

 

Item 1. Business.

 

General. Incorporated in 1954, Scientific Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SI” and along with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), is engaged in the design, manufacture, and marketing of standard benchtop laboratory equipment (“Benchtop Laboratory Equipment”), and through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Scientific Bioprocessing Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SBHI”), the design, manufacture, and marketing of bioprocessing systems and products (“Bioprocessing Systems”). SBHI has two wholly-owned subsidiaries – Scientific Bioprocessing, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“SBI”), and aquila biolabs GmbH, a German corporation (“Aquila”). The Company’s products are used primarily for research purposes by universities, pharmaceutical companies, pharmacies, national laboratories, medical device manufacturers, and other industries performing laboratory-scale research. Until November 30, 2020, the Company was also engaged in the design, manufacture and marketing of customized catalyst research instruments through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Altamira Instruments, Inc, a Delaware corporation (“Altamira”). On November 30, 2020, the Company sold substantially all of Altamira’s assets and Altamira’s operations were discontinued.

 

Transition Period. On November 4, 2022, the Board of Directors approved the change of the Company’s fiscal year end from June 30 to December 31 of each year. In accordance with the applicable rules of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Company is filing a transition report on Form 10-KT with respect to the six-month transition period beginning July 1, 2022 and ended December 31, 2022 within the time period prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company’s 2023 fiscal year will commence on January 1, 2023.

 

Operating Segments. The Company views its operations as two segments: the manufacture and marketing of standard Benchtop Laboratory Equipment which includes various types of equipment used for research and sample preparation in university, pharmacy and industrial laboratories sold primarily through laboratory equipment distributors and online; and the design, development, manufacture and marketing of bioprocessing products, principally products incorporating smart sensors and state of the art software analytics, sold primarily on a direct basis through the Company’s internal sales force.

 

Products.

 

Benchtop Laboratory Equipment. The Company’s Benchtop Laboratory Equipment products consist of mixers and shakers, rotators/rockers, refrigerated and shaking incubators, and magnetic stirrers sold under the “Genie ™” division, and pharmacy and laboratory balances and scales, force gauges, automated pill counters and moisture analyzers under the “Torbal®” division. Sales of the Company’s principal product, the Vortex-Genie® 2 Mixer, excluding accessories, represented approximately 38% and 42% of the Company’s total net revenues for the six-month periods ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (unaudited), respectively and 48% and 51% of the segment’s sales for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

The Company’s vortex mixer is used to mix the contents of test tubes, beakers, and other various containers by placing such containers on a rotating cup or other attachments which cause the contents to be mixed at varying speeds. The Company’s additional mixers and shakers include a high-speed touch mixer, a mixer with an integral timer, a patented cell disruptor, microplate mixers, two vortex mixers incorporating digital control and display, a large capacity multi-vessel vortex mixer and a line of various orbital shakers.

 

The Company also offers various benchtop multi-purpose rotators and rockers, designed to rotate and rock a wide variety of containers, and a refrigerated incubator and incubated shakers, which are multi-functional benchtop environmental chambers designed to perform various shaking and stirring functions under controlled environmental conditions.

 

The Company’s line of magnetic stirrers includes a high/low programmable magnetic stirrer, a four-place high/low programmable magnetic stirrer, a large volume magnetic stirrer, and a four-place general purpose stirrer.

 

The Company’s Torbal® division line of products includes pharmacy, laboratory, and industrial digital scales, moisture analyzers, mechanical and VIVID® automated pill counters, force gauges and test stands.

 

Bioprocessing Systems. SBHI, through its two wholly-owned subsidiaries, SBI and Aquila, is engaged in the design, development, manufacture and marketing of bioprocessing products, principally products incorporating smart sensors and state of the art software analytics. Products include the Cell Growth Quantifier (“CGQ”) for Biomass monitoring in shake flasks, the Liquid Injection System (“LIS”) for automated feeding in shake flasks, and a line of coaster systems and flow-through cells for pH and DO monitoring and analytical software. The Company, through SBI, also sublicensed certain patents and technology it holds relating to bioprocessing products exclusively under a license with the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (“UMBC”), for which it received royalties for patents that expired in August 2021.

 

Product Development. The Company designs and develops substantially all of its products. Company personnel formulate plans and concepts for new products and improvements or modifications of existing products. The Company engages outside consultants to augment its internal engineering capabilities in areas such as industrial and electronics design.

 

Major Customers. Sales to three customers, principally of the Vortex-Genie 2 Mixer, represented 32% and 18% of total net revenues for the six-month periods ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (unaudited), respectively, and 17% and 21% of total net revenues for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 (“fiscal 2022”) and 2021 (“fiscal 2021”), respectively. The three customers also represented 36% and 21% of Benchtop Laboratory Equipment product sales, for the six-month periods ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (unaudited), respectively, and 19% and 23% of Benchtop Laboratory Equipment product sales, for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Marketing.

 

Benchtop Laboratory Equipment. The Company’s Benchtop Laboratory Equipment products sold under the “Genie” brand are generally distributed and marketed through an established network of domestic and overseas laboratory equipment distributors who sell the Company’s products through websites, printed catalogs and sales force. In general, due to the reliance on sales through distribution, it takes two to three years for a new Genie brand Benchtop Laboratory Equipment product to begin generating meaningful sales.

  

The Company’s “Torbal®” brand weighing products are primarily marketed and sold online, and primarily on a direct basis, with only a few distributors. The Company’s VIVID® brand, automated pill counter is sold through two exclusive distributors in North America. The Company markets its products through online and trade publication advertising, brochures and catalogs, the Company’s websites, one sales manager in the U.S., a consultant in Europe and, when practicable, attendance at industry trade shows.

 

Bioprocessing Systems. The Company’s Bioprocessing Systems products are marketed under a newly created marketing category “Digitally Simplified Bioprocessing” through a direct sales force consisting of ten sales professionals and application scientists plus one distributor. Sales are supported via marketing through websites, content creation, application notes, mailings, trade shows, online marketing campaigns, and membership in various public/private research partnerships.

 

Assembly and Production. The Company has facilities in Bohemia, New York and Orangeburg, New York where it conducts the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment operations. The Company also has a facility in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and its primary operating facility in Baesweiller, Germany, where it conducts the Bioprocessing Systems operations. The Company’s production operations principally involve assembly of components supplied by various domestic and international independent suppliers.

   

Patents, Trademarks and Licenses.

 

The Company holds several patents relating to its benchtop laboratory products which include a United States patent which expired in November 2022 on the MagStir Genie® and on the MultiMagStir Genie®, another patent that relates to its Vortex-Genie Pulse which expires in January 2036, and a patent relating to Torbal’s VIVID® automated pill counter which expires in March 2039.

 

The Company’s Bioprocessing Systems operations’ Aquila subsidiary holds two US patents relating to bioprocessing which expire in January 2035 and February 2038, respectively. In addition, Aquila holds several European and German patents and Patent Cooperation Treaty (the “PCT”) patents, and has several other patent applications pending in the United States, Europe, and under the PCT.

 

The Company does not anticipate any material adverse effect on sales of its patented products following the expiration on any of its patents resulting in the loss of patent protection.

 

The Company has various proprietary trademarks, including aquila biolabs (in Germany), Bead Genie®, Disruptor Beads™, Disruptor Genie®, DOTS™, Enviro-Genie®, Genie™, Genie Temp-Shaker™, Incubator Genie™, MagStir Genie®, MegaMag Genie®, MicroPlate Genie®, MultiMagStir Genie®, Multi-MicroPlate Genie®, Orbital Genie®, QuadMag Genie®, Rotator Genie®, Roto-Shake Genie®, Torbal®, TurboMix™, VIVID®, and Vortex-Genie®, each of which it considers important to the success of the related product. The Company also has several trademark applications pending with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. No representation can be made that any application will be granted or as to the protection that any existing or future trademark registration may provide.

 

The Company held an exclusive license from UMBC with respect to rights and know-how under a United States patent held by UMBC related to disposable sensor technology, which the Company further sublicensed on an exclusive basis to a German company, and non-exclusive rights related to the use of the technology with vessels of sizes ranging from 250 milliliters to 5 liters. Net total license fees paid or accrued to the Company under this license for fiscal year 2022 and fiscal year 2021 amounted to $337,700 and $560,000, respectively. This patent and the Company’s related license expired in August 2021.

 

Foreign Sales. The Company’s sales to overseas customers, principally in Asia and Europe, accounted for approximately 34% and 44% of the Company’s net revenue for the six-month periods ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (unaudited), respectively and 42% and 43% of the Company’s net revenues for fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, respectively. Payments were primarily in United States dollars and were therefore not subject to risks of currency fluctuation, foreign duties and customs.

 

Seasonality. The Company does not consider its business to be seasonal.

 

Backlog. The Company’s Benchtop Laboratory Equipment operations experienced supply chain disruptions causing delayed delivery of some products to its customers, and production inefficiencies. The Company had a total backlog in benchtop equipment orders of approximately $745,200, $677,400 and $677,800 as of December 31, 2022, June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively. There was no significant backlog for the Bioprocessing Systems operations.

 

Competition. Most of the Company’s principal competitors are substantially larger and have greater financial, production and marketing resources than the Company. Competition is generally based upon technical specifications, price, and product recognition and acceptance. The Company’s main competition for its Benchtop Laboratory Equipment products derives from private label brand mixers offered by laboratory equipment distributors in the United States and Europe and products exported from China.

 

The Company’s major competitors for its Genie brand Benchtop Laboratory Equipment are Henry Troemner, Inc. (a private label supplier to the two largest laboratory equipment distributors in the U.S. and Europe), IKA-Werke GmbH & Co. KG, a German company, Benchmark Scientific, Inc. (a United States importer of China-produced products), and Heidolph Instruments GmbH, a German company. The Company’s main competitors for its Torbal® brand products are Ohaus Corporation, an American company, A&D Company Ltd., a Japanese company, Adam Equipment Co., Ltd., a British company, and Avery Weigh-Tronix, an American company for its VIVID® brand automated pill counters.

 

The major competitors for the Company’s Bioprocessing Systems products are ABER Instruments (United Kingdom), Hamilton (USA), Kuhner AG (Switzerland), Optek (Germany), PreSens GmbH (Germany), Eppendorf AG GmbH (Germany), and PyroScience (Germany).

Research and Development. The Company incurred research and development expenses, the majority of which related to its Bioprocessing Systems operations, of $1,395,800 and $1,516,800 for the six-month periods ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (unaudited), respectively and $2,873,300 and $1,623,800 for fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, respectively. The Company expects that research and development expenditures in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 will continue to increase reflecting increased product development efforts for the Bioprocessing Systems operations and investment in new VIVID pill counting products.

   

Government and Environmental Regulation. The Company’s products and claims with respect thereto have not required approval of the Food and Drug Administration or any other governmental authority. The Company’s manufacturing operations, like those of the industry in general, are subject to numerous existing and proposed, if adopted, federal, state, and local regulations to protect the environment, establish occupational safety and health standards and cover other matters. The Company believes that its operations are in compliance with existing laws and regulations and the cost to comply is not significant to the Company.

 

Employees. As of April 12, 2023, the Company employed 84 persons (34 for the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment operations, and 50 for the Bioprocessing Systems operations, of whom 36 were located in Germany) of whom 79 were full-time, including its executive officers. The Company augments its internal staff with outside consultants as deemed necessary. None of the Company’s employees are represented by any union.

  

Restatement of Previously Issued Consolidated Financial Statements.  On April 12, 2023, the Company’s management and the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Audit Committee") reached a determination that the Company’s consolidated audited financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30,22 2022 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the Company’s consolidated unaudited financial statements as of and for the quarter period ended September 30, 2022 included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC, collectively the “Non-Reliance Periods”, for the Non-Reliance Periods, should no longer be relied upon because of material misstatements contained in those consolidated financial statements. The Company’s management and the Audit Committee discussed the matters with Macias Gini & O'Connell LLP (“MGO”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, and determined to restate its consolidated audited financial statements for the Non-Reliance Periods. The misstatements are described in detail in Notes 19 and 20 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, within this Annual Report on Form 10-KT.

The Company’s Board of Directors approved the change in the Company’s fiscal year end to December 31 from June 30, effective November 9, 2022. As a result of this change, the consolidated financial statements include the Company’s financial results for the six-month transition period of July 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022. The information for the six months ended December 31, 2021 is presented for comparative purposes only and is unaudited.

 

The Company’s results are from the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment operations and the Bioprocessing Systems operations. The Company realized a loss from continuing operations before income tax benefit of $4,073,100 for the six month period ended December 31, 2022 compared to $2,853,600 for the six month period ended December 31, 2021 (unaudited), and $11,281,700 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 (as restated) compared to a loss of $4,055,000 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to increased operating expenses of its Bioprocessing Systems operations due to its expansion and integration following the acquisition of Aquila in April 2021. These expenses include significant amounts for product development, sales and marketing costs, and non-cash compensation expense related to stock options and depreciation and amortization, partially offset by the profits generated by the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment operations.  The results for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 (as restated), reflected a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $4,280,100 to the goodwill of the Bioprocessing Systems Operations.

 

The challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy affected the Company with minor or temporary disruptions to its operations. The Company took appropriate action and put plans in place to diminish the effects of COVID-19 on its operations, by implementing the Center for Disease Control’s guidelines for employers in order to protect the Company’s employees’ health and safety, with actions such as implementing work from home, social distancing in the workplace, requiring self-quarantine for any employee showing symptoms, wearing face coverings, and training employees on maintaining a healthy work environment. In fiscal years ended June 30, 2020 and fiscal 2021, the Company received loans from the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration, all of which were repaid or forgiven through the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. The Company has not experienced and does not anticipate any material impact on its ability to collect its accounts receivable due to the nature of its customers. The Company experienced some delays from its supply chain which caused delayed delivery of some products, however this is deemed temporary and does not affect the Company’s major product, the Vortex-Genie 2. The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak ultimately impacts the Company’s business, future revenues, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including, but not limited to, the duration and actions to curtail the virus, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. Even after the COVID-19 outbreak has subsided, the Company may experience a significant impact to its business as a result of the global economic impact of COVID-19, including any economic downturn or recession that has occurred or may occur in the future. As a result of the impact of COVID-19 on capital markets, the availability, amount, and type of financing available to the Company in the near future is uncertain and cannot be assured and is largely dependent upon evolving market conditions and other factors. The Company intends to continue to monitor the situation and may adjust its current business plans as more information and guidance become available.

 

Results of Operations.

 

Six Month Transition Period Ended December 31, 2022 compared to the Six Month Period Ended December 31, 2021 (Unaudited)

 

Net revenues for the six month period ended December 31, 2022 decreased $520,800 (9.0%) to $5,237,800 from $5,758,600 for six month period ended December 31, 2021 (unaudited) , reflecting a decrease of approximately $422,200 in net sales in the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment operations. The Benchtop Laboratory Equipment sales of the Torbal division products increased to $1,478,000 from $1,245,300 for the six month periods ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (unaudited), partially offset by decreased sales of the Genie division products to $1,973,800 from $2,417,000 for the six month periods ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (unaudited). The increased sales of the Torbal division products benefitted from increased sales of its VIVID automated pill counter, while the decreased sales of the Genie division products reflected a post COVID-19 normalization sales from the Vortex-Genie 2 product, which had benefitted from sales for testing laboratories during the COVID-19 pandemic. The remaining $98,600 decrease in net revenues for the six month period ended December 31, 2022 is primarily attributable to the Bioprocessing Systems Operations exclusion of royalty fees from sublicensed patents and technology under a license agreement which expired in August 2021, offset with new product sales from the new DOTS platform of bioprocessing products introduced during the current six month period ended December 31, 2022.

 

The gross profit percentage for the six-month period ended December 31, 2022 decreased to 44.3% from 50.7% for the six month period ended December 31, 2021 (unaudited), due primarily to increased materials, labor, and fixed overhead for the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment Operations, and the absence of royalties in the current year period for the Bioprocessing Systems Operations.

 

               General and administrative expenses for the six-month period ended December 31, 2022 decreased by $173,100 (6.1%) to $2,658,800 compared to $2,831,900 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2021 (unaudited) due primarily to the consolidation of operations in the Bioprocessing Systems Operations within the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Baesweiller, Germany facilities.

 

              Selling expenses for the six-month period ended December 31, 2022 increased by $406,200 (20.9%) to $2,349,000 from $1,942,800 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2021 (unaudited), primarily due to a increase in sales and marketing expenses incurred by the Bioprocessing Systems Operations and by the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment operations principally due to increased sales and marketing expenses for the Torbal Division’s VIVID automated pill counter.

 

              Research and development expenses for the six-month period ended December 31, 2022 decreased $121,000 (8.0%) to $1,395,800 from $1,516,800 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2021 (unaudited), due to the reduction in the use of high-cost external consultants and consolidation of operations in the Bioprocessing Systems Operations within the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Baesweiller, Germany facilities.

 

Total other income, net for the six-month periods ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (unaudited) was $63,900 and $515,600, respectively. The decrease was due primarily to the $433,700 forgiveness of the second PPP loan received by the Company within the six-month period ended December 31, 2021 (unaudited).

 

The Company reflected income tax expense for continuing operations of $0 for the six month period ended December 31, 2022 compared to income tax benefit of $737,700 for the six month period ended December 31, 2021 (unaudited).  The income tax expense for the six month period ended December 31, 2022 includes a $1,302,600 tax benefit, fully offset by a valuation allowance of $1,302,600 against the change of net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty that the net deferred tax assets will not be fully realized in the future.

     

As a result of the foregoing, the Company recorded a loss from continuing operations of $4,073,100 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2022 compared to a loss from continuing operations of $2,116,300 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2021 (unaudited).

 

The Company reflected net loss from discontinued operations of $6,300 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2022, compared to a net income of $11,000 for the six-month transition period ended December 31, 2021 (unaudited), which is primarily due to loss on the sale of the majority of Altarmira’s assets during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

 

As a result of the above, the Company recorded a net loss of $4,079,400 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2022 compared to a net loss of $2,105,300 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2021 (unaudited).

Year Ended June 30, 2022 (As Restated) compared to Year Ended June 30, 2021

 

Net revenues for fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 increased $1,625,300 (16.6%) to $11,400,500 from $9,775,200 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, reflecting an increase of approximately $937,500 in net sales of Benchtop Laboratory Equipment operations. The Benchtop Laboratory Equipment sales of Genie brand products increased year-over-year to $7,517,200 from $6,931,900 for fiscal year ended June 30 2022 and 2021, respectively. Torbal® brand product sales totaled $2,463,900 and $2,111,700 for fiscal year ended June 30 2022 and 2021, respectively, primarily due to increased sales of its automated VIVID pill counter. Approximately $687,800 of the increase in net revenues for fiscal year ended June 30 2022 is primarily attributable to inclusion of a full fiscal year of Aquila sales as compared to two months of Aquila sales contribution in fiscal 2021, which sales were attributable to Aquila’s bioprocessing products including the CGQ for Biomass monitoring in shake flasks, the LIS for automated feeding in shake flasks, and a line of coaster systems and flow-through cells for pH and DO monitoring.

 

The gross profit percentage for fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 of 50.3% approximated fiscal 2021’s gross profit percentage of 50.9%.

 

General and administrative expenses for fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 increased by approximately $1,788,100 (44.4%) to $5,816,600 compared to $4,028,500 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 due primarily to compensation-related costs resulting from stock option grants and increased administrative costs from the Bioprocessing Systems operations.

 

Selling expenses for fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 increased approximately $278,900 (6.9%) to $4,310,800 from $4,031,900 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to increased sales and marketing expenses incurred by the Bioprocessing Systems operations for sales and marketing personnel, sales and marketing activities.

 

Research and development expenses increased $1,249,500 (76.9%) to $2,873,300 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 compared to $1,623,800 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, due to increased product development expenditures by the Bioprocessing Systems operations.

  

As referenced in the “Explanatory Note” preceding Item 1 above, during the preparation of its audited financial statements for the six-month transition period from July 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022, the Company identified an error in the use of future projections and weighted average cost of capital used in the annual goodwill impairment testing of the Company’s Bioprocessing Systems segment. As a result of the annual goodwill impairment analysis, the Company determined the carrying value of the Bioprocessing Systems reporting unit exceeded its fair value and therefore the associated goodwill was impaired. Upon further analysis of the error, the Company determined that a goodwill impairment charge to the Bioprocessing Systems segment should have been applied in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. As a result of restating the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 consolidated financial statements, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $4,280,100 to the goodwill of the Bioprocessing Systems reporting unit as the excess of carrying value over fair value was higher than the recorded amount of goodwill for the reporting unit. There was no goodwill impairment charge for fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

 

Total other income, net was $262,400 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 compared to $653,800 in fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was due primarily to the increase in unrealized loss in investment securities of $233,700 offset by the $433,700 forgiveness of the second PPP loan received by the Company, compared to fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 that was due primarily to the $531,100 forgiveness of the first PPP loan received by the Company and increased interest income resulting from increased investment securities balances.

 

The Company reflected income tax expense for continuing operations of $2,390,800 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 compared to income tax benefit of $945,000 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. As referenced in Item (Explanatory Note) above, as a result of the restated consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance of $5,116,000 against the consolidated net deferred tax asset as the Company determined the net deferred tax assets which includes net operating loss carry-forwards and other tax credits, are more likely not to be realized and their for the Company recorded of full valuation allowance. The full valuation allowance of $5,116,000 was offset by a income tax benefit of $2,717,200. In the event that in the future the Company changes the determination as to the amount of deferred tax assets that can be realized, the Company will adjust the valuation allowance with a corresponding impact to the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made.

 

As a result of the foregoing, the Company recorded a loss from continuing operations of $13,672,500 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 compared to a loss from continuing operations of $3,110,000 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

 

The Company reflected net income from discontinued operations of $4,400 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, compared to a net loss of $562,500 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, which is primarily due to loss on the sale of the majority of Altarmira’s assets during fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

 

As a result of the above, the Company recorded a net loss of $13,668,100 for fiscal year ended June 30 2022 compared to a net loss of $3,672,500 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources.

 

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $1,044,000 to $1,927,100 as of December 31, 2022 from $2,971,100 as of June 30, 2022, primarily due to the increased operating costs from the Bioprocessing Systems operations and Corporate overhead operations. We expect to utilize cash reserves and income from the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment segment until sales in our Bioprocessing Systems segment reach a level sufficient to fund ongoing operations. As of December 31, 2022, the Company expects that it will be able to meet its cash flow needs during the next 12 months from cash derived from its operations, cash on-hand and through the issuance of additional shares of common stock and warrants to purchase common stock. If the Company is unable to raise capital in the future, the Company may need to curtail expenditures by scaling back certain research and development or other expenditures.

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $2,849,000 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2022 and $1,931,000 for the six month period ended December 31, 2021 (unaudited). The increase is primarily due increased operational costs from the Bioprocessing Systems operations and Corporate overhead operations in the current period.

Net cash provided by (used) in investing activities was $1,803,500 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2022 compared to ($3,386,800) for the six-month period ended December 31, 2021 (unaudited). The increase is primarily due to proceeds from redemption of investment securities and decrease in purchase of investment securities in the current period.

 

Net cash used in financing activities was $0 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2022 compared to $163,400 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2021 (unaudited). The increase is primarily due to the timing and funding of bank overdraft activities.

         

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In connection with the preparation of our financial statements, we are required to make assumptions and estimates about future events and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the related disclosures. We base our assumptions, estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time our consolidated financial statements are prepared. On an ongoing basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.

 

Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, of this Transition Report on Form 10-KT. Management believes that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results, and they require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, resulting from the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Management has reviewed these critical accounting estimates and related disclosures with the Audit Committee of our board of directors.

     

Fair Value Estimates

 

Goodwill and Finite Lived Intangible Assets and Long-Lived Assets, Net

 

Goodwill -  Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill and long-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)  No. 350, “Intangibles- Goodwill and Other” (“ASC No. 350”). ASC No. 350 requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level (operating segment or one level below an operating segment) on an annual basis and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assignment of assets and liabilities to reporting units, assignment of goodwill to reporting units, and determination of the fair value of each reporting unit.

 

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had two reporting units, the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment Operations and the Bioprocessing Systems. Goodwill is tested for impairment by reporting unit on an annual basis as of December 31, the last day of its fiscal year, and in the interim if events and circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired. Prior to the change in the Company’s fiscal year from the last day of June to a calendar fiscal year end, goodwill was tested for impairment on an annual basis as of June 30, the last day of its then fiscal year, and in the interim if events and circumstances indicated that goodwill may be impaired. The voluntary change is preferable under the circumstances as a better alignment with the Company’s strategic planning and forecasting process given the Company’s change in fiscal year end. The events and circumstances that are considered in the Company’s goodwill impairment testing include business climate and market conditions, legal factors, operating performance indicators and competition. Impairment of goodwill is first assessed using a qualitative approach.  If the qualitative assessment suggests that impairment is more likely than not, a quantitative analysis is performed.  The quantitative analysis involves a comparison of the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount.  The fair value is determined using the income approach, which utilizes the present value of expected future cash flows for each reporting unit based on estimate future cash flows, the timing of these cash flows, and a discount rate based on a weighted average cost of capital. The assumptions used to estimate future cash flows and the development of forecasts  used in the fair value determination were based on assumptions made using the best information available at the time, subject to inherent risk and judgement. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. To the extent additional information arises, market conditions change, or our strategies change, it is possible that the conclusion regarding whether our remaining goodwill is impaired could change and result in future goodwill impairment charges that will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

During the six months ended December 31, 2022, the Company performed the annual goodwill impairment analysis. The Company elected to perform the qualitative analysis for the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment Operation reporting unit. These qualitative analyses evaluated factors, including, but not limited to, economic, market and industry conditions, cost factors and the overall financial performance of the reporting unit. In completing these assessments, the Company noted no changes in events or circumstances that indicated that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than its carrying amount.

 

As referenced in the “Explanatory Note” preceding Item 1 above, during the preparation of its audited financial statements for the six-month transition period July 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022, the Company identified an error in the use of future projections and weighted average cost of capital used in the annual goodwill impairment testing of the Company’s Bioprocessing Systems segment. As a result of the annual goodwill impairment analysis, the Company determined the carrying value of the Bioprocessing Systems reporting unit exceeded its fair value and therefore the associated goodwill was impaired. Upon further analysis of the error, the Company determined that a goodwill impairment charge to the Bioprocessing Systems segment should have been applied in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. As a result of restating the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 consolidated financial statements, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $4,280,100 to the goodwill of the Bioprocessing Systems reporting unit as the excess of carrying value over fair value was higher than the recorded amount of goodwill for the reporting unit. As of December 31, 2022 there was no remaining goodwill to the Bioprocessing System reporting unit.

Intangible assets consist primarily of acquired technology, customer relationships, non-compete agreements, patents, licenses, websites, intellectual property in-process research and development (“IPR&D”), trademarks and trade names. All intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, generally 3 to 10 years. The Company continually evaluates the remaining estimated useful lives of intangible assets that are being amortized to determine whether events or circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. The Company reviews the recoverability of our finite-lived intangible assets and long-lived assets, when events or conditions occur that indicate a possible impairment exists. Determining whether impairment has occurred typically requires various estimates and assumptions, including determining which cash flows are directly related to the potentially impaired asset, the useful life over which cash flows will occur, their amount and the asset’s residual value, if any. The assessment for recoverability is based primarily on our ability to recover the carrying value of its long-lived and finite-lived intangible assets from expected future undiscounted net cash flows. If the total of expected future undiscounted net cash flows is less than the total carrying value of the assets the asset is deemed not to be recoverable and possibly impaired. We then estimate the fair value of the asset to determine whether an impairment loss should be recognized. An impairment loss will be recognized if the asset’s fair value is determined to be less than its carrying value. Fair value is determined by computing the expected future discounted cash flows.

  

During the six months ended December 31, 2022, the Company determined a technology intangible asset in the Bioprocessing segment was impaired and wrote it down by $51,500, net of accumulated amortization, to its estimated fair value of $0. There was no impairment of intangible assets for the six months ended December 31, 2021 (unaudited) or for the years ending June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

  

Income tax 

 

The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return, and a tax return in Germany for Aquila. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. The Company provides for federal, and state income taxes currently payable, as well as for those deferred due to timing differences between reporting income and expenses for financial statement purposes versus tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributed to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in income tax rates is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

In accordance with ASC 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), the Company evaluated the deferred tax assets to determine if valuation allowances are required or should be adjusted. ASC 740 requires that companies assess whether valuation allowances should be established against their deferred tax assets based on consideration of all available evidence, both positive and negative, using a “more likely than not” standard of whether the deferred tax assets will be realized. As referenced in Item IA (Explanatory Note) above, as a result of the restated consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance of $5,116,000 against the consolidated net deferred tax assets as the Company determined the net deferred tax assets which includes net operating loss carry-forwards and other tax credits, are more likely not to be realized and therefore the Company recorded a full valuation allowance. During the six months ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance of $1,302,600 to the period change in the net deferred tax assets as the Company determined the net deferred tax assets which includes net operating loss carry-forwards and other tax credits, are more likely not to be realized and therefore the Company recorded a full valuation allowance. In the event that in the future the Company changes its determination as to the amount of deferred tax assets that can be realized, the Company will adjust the valuation allowance with a corresponding impact to the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made.

 

ASC No. 740 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and 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. ASC No. 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. As of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits related to various federal and state income tax matters.

 

The Company recognizes interest and penalties on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. The Company does not have any accrued interest or penalties associated with any unrecognized tax benefits. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax, as well as various state jurisdictions. The Company is currently open to audit under the statute of limitations by the federal and state jurisdictions for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2018 and after. The Company is currently open to audit under the statute of limitations by German tax authorities for the years ended December 31, 2018. The Company does not anticipate any material amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this Transition Report on Form 10-KT, based on an evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2022.

 

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over the Company’s financial reporting, as such term is defined in Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). The Company’s internal controls over financial reporting are 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.

 

The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022 based on the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework.

 

As of the end of the period covered by this Transition Report on Form 10-KT, based on an evaluation of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting, the Company concluded that the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting are not effective due to the identification of a material weakness as it pertains to the recording of impairment to the Company’s goodwill intangible assets and income tax provision and related valuation allowance against the net, deferred tax assets.  Management believes it took appropriate steps to ensure that proper internal controls are in place including the engagement of subject matter experts, however, due to the highly subjective nature of these two areas which include detailed and complex analyses by subject matter experts, adjustments were deemed necessary for proper financial reporting in our financial statements. 

 

Management has performed additional analyses and other procedures which resulted in a restatement of the previously issued financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022 and as of and for the interim period during the year ended December 31, 2022, as more fully described in Note 19 ("Restatement Of Prior Period") and Note 20 ("Quarterly Financial Data (Unaudited)") to the consolidated financial statements included herein.

 

Remediation Plan. The Company started the process of designing and implementing more effective internal control measures to improve the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting and to remediate this material weakness. Our efforts include the development of additional procedures and evaluations with respect to the selection and usage of subject matter experts in regard to experience and qualifications.

 

The Company believe that these actions, collectively, will remediate the material weakness. However, the material weakness cannot be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and our management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. We intend to continue to monitor and upgrade our internal controls as necessary or appropriate for our business but cannot provide assurance that such improvements will be sufficient to provide us with effective internal control over financial reporting.

 

This transition report on Form 10-KT, was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this transition report.

Item 14. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

 

On November 28, 2022, Scientific Industries Inc. was advised by Nussbaum Berg Klein & Wolpow, CPAs LLP (the “Former Principal Accountant”) that it had resigned as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm due to the Former Principal Accountant combining with Macias Gini & O’Connell LLP (“Principal Accountant”, “MGO”) and the members of the Former Principal Accountant have joined MGO as employees or partners of MGO.

 

The Company incurred for the services of the Former Principal Accountant fees during the six-month periods December 31, 2022 and 2021 (unaudited) of approximately $117,500 and $63,750, respectively, in connection with the audit of the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and quarterly reviews; $5,000 for additional audit related fees for fiscal 2021, $22,500 and $12,850 for the preparation of the Company’s corporate tax returns for fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, respectively, and $2,750 in fiscal 2021 for other services related to tax services. The Company incurred for the services of the Former Principal Accountant fees of approximately $117,200 and $110,300 for fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, respectively, in connection with the audit of the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and quarterly reviews; $5,000 for additional audit related fees for fiscal 2021, $22,500 and $12,850 for the preparation of the Company’s corporate tax returns for fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, respectively, and $2,750 in fiscal 2021 for other services related to tax services

  

The Company has not incurred service fees of the Principal Accountant during the six-month periods ended December 31, 2022.

 

In approving the engagement of the independent registered public accounting firm to perform the audit and non-audit services, the Board of Directors as the Company’s audit committee evaluates the scope and cost of each of the services to be performed including a determination that the performance of the non-audit services will not affect the independence of the firm in the performance of the audit services.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of

Scientific Industries Inc., and Subsidiaries

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Scientific Industries Inc., and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the six-month period July 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “Financial Statements”).  In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the six-month period July 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The financial statements of the Company as of June 30, 2022, before restatement, were audited by other auditors whose report dated September 28, 2022, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements. We also audited the adjustments described in Note 19 that were applied to restate the June 30, 2022, financial statements. In our opinion, such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

Critical Audit Matters

 

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

 

Goodwill Impairment Assessment

 

As discussed in Notes 6 and 19 to the financial statements, subsequent to the Company’s previous annual goodwill impairment test, the Company identified previous events that reduced the fair value of the Company’s Bioprocesing reporting unit below its carrying amount, which led to an impairment assessment resulting in a restatement to the June 30, 2022 audited amount. As a result, the Company recognized goodwill impairment charges of approximately $4.3 million as of June 30, 2022. The Company’s goodwill balance, subsequent to the impairment charge recorded, was approximately $115 thousand.

 

As described further in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, management evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual basis as of December 31, previously June 30, or more frequently if impairment indicators exist, at the reporting unit level. Management estimated the fair value of its reporting unit using the income approach (discounted cash flow model). The determination of the fair value of the reporting units requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions related to forecasts of future revenues and operating expenses and discount rates. We identified the goodwill impairment assessment of the Bioprocessing reporting unit as a critical audit matter.

 

 
F-2

 

 

How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit

 

The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:

 

 

·

The principal considerations for our determination that the goodwill impairment assessment of the bioprocessing reporting unit is a critical audit matter is that changes in the assumptions related to forecasts of future revenues, operating expenses and discount rates could materially affect the determination of the fair value of the reporting unit, the amount of any goodwill impairment charge, or both. Management utilized significant judgment when estimating the fair value and carrying value of the reporting unit. In turn, auditing management’s judgments regarding forecasts of future revenues, operating expenses and the discount rates applied involved a high degree of subjectivity due to the estimation uncertainty of management’s significant judgments.

 

Our audit procedures related to the goodwill impairment assessment of the Bioprocessing reporting unit included the following, among others:

 

 

·

We tested management's process for determining the fair value and carrying value of the bioprocessing reporting unit. This included evaluating the appropriateness of the valuation methods, testing the completeness, accuracy, and relevance of data used by management, and evaluating the reasonableness of management's significant assumptions, which included forecasted revenues and operating expenses. We tested whether these forecasts were reasonable and consistent with historical performance, third-party market data, and other evidence obtained in other areas of the audit.

 

 

 

 

·

We tested the Company's discounted cash flow model for the bioprocessing reporting unit with the assistance of valuation specialists, including the reasonableness of the utilized discount rate.

 

 

 

 

·

Involved auditor engaged a valuation specialist to assist with our evaluation of the methodologies used by the Company and significant assumptions included in the fair value estimate

 

 

 

 

·

Tested the clerical accuracy of the models.

 

Valuation Allowance on Deferred Tax Assets

 

Critical Audit Matter Description

  

As discussed in Notes 18 and 19 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company identified previous events that reduced the deferred tax assets of the Company, which led to a valuation allowance resulting in a restatement to the June 30, 2022 audited amount.  As a result, the Company recognized a valuation allowance of approximately $3.7 million as of June 30, 2022. There is no deferred tax assets balance subsequent to the valuation allowance adjustment.

 

At December 31, 2022 the Company had deferred tax assets of approximately $6.4 million, for which a full valuation allowance was established. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of all available evidence, in management’s judgment it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Management considers the amounts and timing of expected future deductions or carryforwards and sources of taxable income that may enable utilization. This includes an analysis of the Company’s current financial position, results of operations for the current and prior years, and other currently available information relevant to the Company’s realization of its deferred tax assets.

 

Auditing management’s analysis of the realizability of deferred tax assets was complex due to the Company’s tax structure. Significant judgments and estimates were made by management to determine that sufficient taxable income will not be generated to realize such deferred tax assets. The assessment process involves significant judgment and subjective evaluation of assumptions which may be affected by the future operations of the Company, market, or economic conditions, which required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve income tax specialists.

  

How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit

 

The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:

 

 

·

We evaluated the Company’s assessment of the realizability of its deferred tax assets and its valuation allowance based on our consideration of available positive and negative evidence.

 

 

 

 

·

We evaluated the nature of the Company’s tax attributes and tax structure, including evaluating the Company’s analysis of the application of technical tax guidance related to the accounting for deferred tax assets.

 

 

 

 

·

We compared the projections of future taxable income with the actual results of prior periods and assessed management’s consideration of current industry and economic trends.

 

 

 

 

·

We involved our tax professionals with specialized skills and knowledge to evaluate the Company’s assessment of its future utilization of deferred tax assets.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

Board of Directors and Stockholders’

Scientific Industries, Inc.

Bohemia, New York

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Scientific Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively, the “financial statements”). In our opinion, except for the effects of the adjustments, if any, as might have been determined to be necessary had we been engaged to audit the Company’s restatement adjustments, as described below, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Restatement of the June 30, 2022 Financial Statements

We were not engaged to audit the restatement of the Company’s change in it’s deferred tax asset valuation or the Company’s impairment of goodwill and intangible assets for the year ended June 30, 2022, and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance about whether such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied. Those adjustments were audited by Macias Gini & O’Connell LLP.

 

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

Except as discussed above, we conducted our audits in accordance with the auditing standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the audit of the June 30, 2022 consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to those charged with governance and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

 

Impairment Assessment of Goodwill and Long-Lived Intangible Assets

 

As described in  the financial statements, the Company completed its acquisition of Aquila biolabs GmbH (“Aquila”) during fiscal 2021 on April 29, 2021. The Company’s goodwill and intangible assets associated with this acquisition amounted to $4,138,100 and $1,947,500, respectively, as of June 30, 2022. Goodwill and long-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of ASC No. 350, “Intangibles Goodwill and Other” (“ASC No. 350”). 

 

We identified the impairment assessment of the Company’s goodwill and long-lived assets acquired in the acquisition as a critical audit matter as of June 30, 2022. Auditing the Company’s impairment test was complex and highly judgmental because (i) there was significant judgment used by management to develop the fair value measurement, which led to a high degree of audit judgment and subjectivity in performing procedures relating to fair value measurement; (ii) there was significant effort in performing procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of the fair value measurement and significant assumptions and projections used by management, and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in performing these procedures and evaluating the audit evidence obtained.

 

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements.  To test the potential impairment of the Company’s goodwill and long-lived intangible assets, our audit procedures included, among others, testing management’s application of the relevant accounting guidance, involving a specialist to assist us in the evaluation of the Company’s valuation methodology and testing of the significant assumptions used by the Company to develop forecasted results for the reporting unit, including projected revenue growth and operating margins.  We also assessed the historical accuracy of management’s estimates, as well as requested the performance of a sensitivity analyses of significant assumptions to evaluate the changes in the fair value of the reporting unit that would result from changes in the assumptions.  We compared the significant assumptions to current and past industry, market and economic trends. Additionally, we tested the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data supporting the significant assumptions and estimates and ensured that the assumptions were consistent with other evidence obtained in other areas of our audit.

SCIENTIFIC INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Nature of the Business and Basis of Presentation

 

Scientific Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) design, manufacture, and market a variety of benchtop laboratory equipment and bioprocessing products. The Company is headquartered in Bohemia, New York where it produces benchtop laboratory and pharmacy equipment. Additionally, the Company has two other locations in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Baesweiller, Germany, where it designs and produces a variety of bioprocessing products, and an administrative facility in Orangeburg, New York related to sales and marketing. The products, which are sold to customers worldwide, include mixers, shakers, stirrers, refrigerated incubators, pharmacy balances and scales, force gauges, bioprocessing sensors and analytical tools. The Company also sublicensed certain patents and technology under a license agreement which expired in August 2021 and received royalty fees from the sublicenses.

 

Change in Fiscal Year

 

The Company’s Board of Directors approved the change in the Company’s fiscal year end to December 31 from June 30, effective November 9, 2022. As a result of this change, the consolidated financial statements include the Company’s financial results for the six-month transition period of July 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022. The information for the six months ended December 31, 2021 is presented for comparative purposes only and is unaudited. 

 

Restatement of Prior Period  

  

On April 12, 2023, the Company, together with the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Audit Committee") reached a determination that the Company’s consolidated audited financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the Company’s consolidated unaudited financial statement as of and for the quarter period ended September 30, 2022 included in the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC, collectively the “Non-Reliance Periods”, should no longer be relied upon because of material misstatements contained in those consolidated financial statements.

 

See Note 19 ("Restatement of Prior Period") below for additional information on the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022.

 

See Note 20 ("Quarterly Financial Data (Unaudited)") below for such restated information on the quarter period ended September 30, 2022.

  

COVID-19 Update

 

The challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy affected the Company with minor or temporary disruptions to its operations. The Company took appropriate action and put plans in place to diminish the effects of COVID-19 on its operations, by implementing the Center for Disease Control’s guidelines for employers in order to protect the Company’s employees’ health and safety, with actions such as implementing work from home, social distancing in the workplace, requiring self-quarantine for any employee showing symptoms, wearing face coverings, and training employees on maintaining a healthy work environment. In fiscal years ended June 30, 2020 and 2021 the Company received loans from the Paycheck Protection Program administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration of which all of the loans were repaid or forgiven through the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. The forgiven loans were recorded in the Company’s statement of operations as “Other Income. The Company has not experienced and does not anticipate any material impact on its ability to collect its accounts receivable due to the nature of its customers. The Company experienced some delays from its supply chain which delayed delivery of some products, however this is deemed temporary and did not affect the Company’s major product – the Vortex-Genie 2. The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak ultimately impacts the Company’s business, future revenues, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak, its severity and longevity, the actions to curtail the virus and treat its impact (including an effective vaccine), and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. Even after the COVID-19 outbreak has subsided, the Company may be at risk of experiencing a significant impact to its business as a result of the global economic impact, including any economic downturn or recession that has occurred or may occur in the future.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Scientific Industries, Inc., Scientific Packaging Industries, Inc., an inactive wholly-owned subsidiary, Altamira Instruments, Inc. (“Altamira”), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary (discontinued operation as of November 30, 2020), and Scientific Bioprocessing Holdings, Inc. (“SBHI”), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary, which holds 100% of the outstanding stock of Scientific Bioprocessing, Inc. (“SBI”), a Delaware corporation, and aquila biolabs GmbH (“Aquila”), a German corporation, since its acquisition on April 29, 2021, (all collectively referred to as the “Company”). All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Liquidity and Uncertainties

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. As of December 31, 2022, the Company expects that it will be able to meet its cash flow needs during the next 12 months from cash on-hand, cash derived from its operations, availability of the Company’s line of credit and if needed, financing through the issuance of additional shares of common stock and warrants to purchase common stock.

 

The Company’s continued operations is subject to several factors, including market and economic conditions, the Company’s ability to advanced product development and market penetration of our products, and the Company’s ability to negotiate and raise capital.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the allowance for doubtful accounts, slow-moving inventory reserves, depreciation and amortization, the fair values of intangibles and goodwill, provision or benefit for income taxes, and deferred taxes. The results of these assumptions provide the basis for making estimates about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The Company accounts for a customer contract when both parties have approved the contract and are committed to perform their respective obligations, each party’s rights can be identified, payment terms can be identified, the contract has commercial substance, and it is probable that the Company will collect substantially all of the consideration to which it is entitled. Revenue is recognized when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of a promised product or service to a customer.

 

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

 

 

·

Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer

 

 

 

 

·

Identification of the performance obligations in the contract

 

 

 

 

·

Determination of the transaction price

 

 

 

 

·

Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

 

 

 

 

·

Recognition of revenue when, or as, a performance obligation is satisfied

  

The Company has made the following accounting policy elections and elected to use certain practical expedients, as permitted by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), in applying ASC Topic 606: 1) All revenues are recorded net of returns, allowances, customer discounts, and incentives; 2) Although sales and other taxes are immaterial, the Company accounts for amounts collected from customers for sales and other taxes, if any, net of related amounts remitted to tax authorities; 3) the Company expenses costs to obtain a contract as they are incurred if the expected period of benefit, and therefore the amortization period, is one year or less; 4) the Company accounts for shipping and handling activities that occur after control transfers to the customer as a fulfillment cost rather than an additional promised service and these fulfillment costs fall within selling expenses; 5) the Company is always considered the principal and never an agent, because it has full control and responsibility until title is transferred to the customer; 6) the Company does not assess whether promised goods or services are performance obligations if they are immaterial in the context of the contract with the customer.

 

Nature of Products and Services

 

The Company generates revenues from the following sources: (1) Benchtop Laboratory Equipment and (2) Bioprocessing Systems.

 

Benchtop laboratory equipment sales comprise primarily of standard benchtop laboratory equipment from its stock to laboratory equipment distributors, or to end users primarily via e- commerce. The sales cycle from time of receipt of order to shipment is very short varying from a day to a few weeks. Customers either pay by credit card (online sales) or Net 30-90, depending on the customer. Once the item is shipped under the FOB terms specified in the order, which is primarily “FOB Factory”, other than a standard warranty, there are no other obligations to the customer. Warranty usually comprises of one to two year parts and labor and is deemed immaterial.

 

Bioprocessing Systems sales comprise primarily of bioprocessing products, principally products incorporating smart sensors and state of the art software analytics. Products offered for sale include the Cell Growth Quantifier (“CGQ”) for Biomass monitoring in shake flasks, the Liquid Injection System (“LIS”) for automated feeding in shake flasks, and a line of coaster systems and flow-through cells for pH and DO monitoring. The Company, through SBI, sublicensed certain patents and technology it held relating to bioprocessing products exclusively under a license which expired in August 2021, with the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (“UMBC”), for which it received royalties for such patents and technology. The Company was obligated to pay 50% of all royalties received to the entity that licensed the intellectual property to UMBC.

Segment Reporting

 

The Company views its operations as two operating segments, that are also the two reporting segments: the manufacture and marketing of standard benchtop laboratory equipment for research in university, hospital and industrial laboratories sold primarily through laboratory equipment distributors and laboratory and pharmacy balances and scales (“Benchtop Laboratory Equipment Operations”), and the manufacture, design, and marketing of bioprocessing systems and products and related royalty income (“Bioprocessing Systems”).

 

The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) regularly reviews revenue and operating income/loss for each segment in determination of allocating resources and assessing financial performance results. The Company eliminates inter-segment activity in the Company’s reporting segment results to be consistent with the information that is presented to the CODM. The Company also included a Non-operating Corporate segment in the Company’s reporting segment results.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. At times, cash balances may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limit. As of December 31, 2022, June 30, 2022, and 2021, $1,082,100, $1,984,300 and $8,922,800 respectively of cash balances were in excess of such limit.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

In order to record the Company’s accounts receivable at their net realizable value, the Company must assess their collectability. A considerable amount of judgment is required in order to make this assessment, including an analysis of historical bad debts and other adjustments, a review of the aging of the Company’s receivables, and the current creditworthiness of the Company’s customers. The Company has recorded allowances for receivables which it considered uncollectible, including amounts for the resolution of potential credit and other collection issues such as disputed invoices, customer satisfaction claims and pricing discrepancies. However, depending on how such potential issues are resolved, or if the financial condition of any of the Company’s customers was to deteriorate and its ability to make required payments became impaired, increases in these allowances may be required. The Company actively manages its accounts receivable to minimize credit risk. The Company does not obtain collateral for its accounts receivable.

 

The allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively was $33,600, $15,600 and $15,600, respectively.

 

Investment Securities

 

The Company’s investment securities are classified as equity securities, mutual funds, and bonds, and are held as available-for-sale and recorded at fair value. Changes in fair value of equity securities and mutual funds are recorded as net unrealized gains or losses in other income (loss), net on the statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Changes in fair value of bonds are recorded as net unrealized gains or losses as a component of other comprehensive income.

 

The Company determines the cost of the investment sold based on an average cost basis at the individual security level and record the interest income and realized gains or losses on the sale of these investments in other income, net on the statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

     

Inventories

 

Current and noncurrent inventories recorded other than those of Aquila, are valued at the lower of cost (determined on a first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value, and have been reduced by an allowance for excess and obsolete inventories. Inventories of Aquila are valued at the lower of cost (determined on a average cost method) or net realizable value, and have been reduced by an allowance for excess and obsolete inventories. The Company’s inventory allowance is based on management’s estimates and reviews of inventories on hand is based on management’s review of inventories on hand compared to estimated future usage and sales. Cost of work-in-process and finished goods inventories include material, labor and manufacturing overhead. As needed, the Company may purchase critical raw materials that are used in the core production process in quantities that exceed anticipated consumption within the normal operating cycle, which is 12 months. The Company classifies such raw materials that the Company does not expect to consume within the normal operating cycle as noncurrent.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided for primarily by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized by the straight-line method over the remaining term of the related lease or the estimated useful lives of the assets, whichever is shorter.

 

Goodwill and Finite Lived Intangible Assets and Long-Lived Assets, Net 

 

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill and long-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)  No. 350, “Intangibles- Goodwill and Other” (“ASC No. 350”). ASC No. 350 requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level (operating segment or one level below an operating segment) on an annual basis and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assignment of assets and liabilities to reporting units, assignment of goodwill to reporting units, and determination of the fair value of each reporting unit.

     

 
F-11

Table of Contents

  

 

 

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had two reporting units, the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment Operations and the Bioprocessing Systems. Goodwill is tested for impairment by reporting unit on an annual basis as of December 31, the last day of its fiscal year, and in the interim if events and circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired. Prior to the change in the Company’s fiscal year from the last day of June to a calendar fiscal year end, goodwill was tested for impairment on an annual basis as of June 30, the last day of its then fiscal year, and in the interim if events and circumstances indicated that goodwill may be impaired. The voluntary change is preferable under the circumstances as a better alignment with the Company’s strategic planning and forecasting process given the Company’s change in fiscal year end. The events and circumstances that are considered in the Company’s goodwill impairment testing include business climate and market conditions, legal factors, operating performance indicators and competition. Impairment of goodwill is first assessed using a qualitative approach.  If the qualitative assessment suggests that impairment is more likely than not, a quantitative analysis is performed.  The quantitative analysis involves a comparison of the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount.  The fair value is determined using the income approach, which utilizes the present value of expected future cash flows for each reporting unit based on estimate future cash flows, the timing of these cash flows, and a discount rate based on a weighted average cost of capital. The assumptions used to estimate future cash flows and the development of forecasts  used in the fair value determination were based on assumptions made using the best information available at the time, subject to inherent risk and judgement. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. To the extent additional information arises, market conditions change, or our strategies change, it is possible that the conclusion regarding whether our remaining goodwill is impaired could change and result in future goodwill impairment charges that will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

During the six months ended December 31, 2022, the Company performed the annual goodwill impairment analysis. The Company elected to perform the qualitative analysis for the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment Operation reporting unit. These qualitative analyses evaluated factors, including, but not limited to, economic, market and industry conditions, cost factors and the overall financial performance of the reporting unit. In completing these assessments, the Company noted no changes in events or circumstances that indicated that it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than its carrying amount.

 

As referenced to “Restatement of Prior Period” in Note 1 above, during the preparation of its audited financial statements for the six-month transition period July 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022, the Company identified an error in the use of future projections and weighted average cost of capital used in the annual goodwill impairment testing of the Company’s Bioprocessing Systems segment. As a result of the annual goodwill impairment analysis, the Company determined the carrying value of the Bioprocessing Systems reporting unit exceeded its fair value and therefore the associated goodwill was impaired. Upon further analysis of the error, the Company determined that a goodwill impairment charge to the Bioprocessing Systems segment should have been applied in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. As a result of restating the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 consolidated financial statements, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $4,280,100 to the goodwill of the Bioprocessing Systems reporting unit as the excess of carrying value over fair value was higher than the recorded amount of goodwill for the reporting unit. As of December 31, 2022 there was no remaining goodwill to the Bioprocessing System reporting unit.

 

Intangible assets consist primarily of acquired technology, customer relationships, non-compete agreements, patents, licenses, websites, intellectual property in-process research and development (“IPR&D”), trademarks and trade names. All intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, generally 3 to 10 years. The Company continually evaluates the remaining estimated useful lives of intangible assets that are being amortized to determine whether events or circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. The Company reviews the recoverability of our finite-lived intangible assets and long-lived assets, when events or conditions occur that indicate a possible impairment exists. Determining whether impairment has occurred typically requires various estimates and assumptions, including determining which cash flows are directly related to the potentially impaired asset, the useful life over which cash flows will occur, their amount and the asset’s residual value, if any. The assessment for recoverability is based primarily on our ability to recover the carrying value of its long-lived and finite-lived intangible assets from expected future undiscounted net cash flows. If the total of expected future undiscounted net cash flows is less than the total carrying value of the assets the asset is deemed not to be recoverable and possibly impaired. We then estimate the fair value of the asset to determine whether an impairment loss should be recognized. An impairment loss will be recognized if the asset’s fair value is determined to be less than its carrying value. Fair value is determined by computing the expected future discounted cash flows.

 

During the six months ended December 31, 2022, the Company determined a technology intangible asset in the Bioprocessing segment was impaired and wrote it down by $51,500, net of accumulated amortization, to its estimated fair value of $0. There was no impairment of intangible assets for the six months ended December 31, 2021 (unaudited) or for the years ending June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company follows the provisions of ASC No. 360-10, “Property, Plant and Equipment - Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (“ASC No. 360-10”). ASC No. 360-10 which requires evaluation of the need for an impairment charge relating to long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If an evaluation for impairment is required, the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset would be compared to the asset’s carrying amount to determine if a write down to a new depreciable basis is required. If required, an impairment charge is recorded based on an estimate of future discounted cash flows. The Company concluded as of December 31, 2022, June 30, 2022 and 2021, there was no impairment of long-lived assets.

 

Leases

 

The Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842, Leases. The Company determines whether an agreement contains a lease at inception based on the Company’s right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the identified asset and its right to direct the use of the identified asset. Lease liabilities represent the present value of future lease payments and the Right-Of-Use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use the underlying assets for the respective lease terms. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. The ROU asset is further adjusted to account for previously recorded lease expenses such as deferred rent and other lease liabilities. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate of 5.0% as the discount rate to calculate the present value of future lease payments, which was the interest rate that its bank would charge for a similar loan.

    

The Company elected not to recognize a ROU asset and a lease liability for leases with an initial term of twelve months or less. In addition to minimum lease payments, certain leases require payment of a proportionate share of real estate taxes and certain building operating expenses or payments based on an excess of a specified base. These variable lease costs are not included in the measurement of the ROU asset or lease liability due to unpredictability of the payment amount and are recorded as lease expenses in the period incurred. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain residual value guarantees.

 

The Company elected available practical expedients for existing or expired contracts of lessees wherein the Company is not required to reassess whether such contracts contain leases, the lease classification or the initial direct costs.

Advertising

 

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense amounted to $433,500 and $222,800 for the six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (unaudited), respectively and $628,700 and $399,700 for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development costs consisting of expenses for activities that are useful in developing and testing new products, as well as expenses that may significantly improve existing products, are expensed as incurred.

 

Stock Compensation Plan

 

Stock-based compensation is accounted for in accordance with ASC No. 718 “Compensation-Stock Compensation” (“ASC No. 718”) which requires compensation costs related to stock-based payment transactions to be recognized. With limited exceptions, the amount of compensation cost is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. In addition, liability awards are measured at each reporting period. Compensation costs are recognized over the period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award.

 

The Company estimates the fair value of each stock-based grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This model derives the fair value of stock options based on certain assumptions related to expected stock price volatility, expected option life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company's stock price over the most recent period commensurate with the expected term of the stock option award. The estimate expected term is based on management’s analysis of historical exercise activity. The risk-free interest rate is based on published U.S. Treasury rates for a term commensurate with the expected term. The dividend yield is estimated as zero as the Company has not paid dividends in the past and does not have any plans to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. The Company has elected to account for forfeitures only when they occur.

 

Foreign currency translation and transactions

 

The Company has determined that the functional currency and reporting currency for its Aquila operations in Germany is the Euro and the U.S. Dollar, respectively. All assets and liabilities of Aquila are translated at the current exchange rate as of the end of the reporting period, and revenue and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the period with the resulting gain or loss reflected as a foreign currency cumulative translation adjustment and reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses arising from currency exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the local functional currency are included in other income.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return, and a tax return in Germany for Aquila. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. The Company provides for federal, and state income taxes currently payable, as well as for those deferred due to timing differences between reporting income and expenses for financial statement purposes versus tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributed to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in income tax rates is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

In accordance with ASC 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), the Company evaluated the deferred tax assets to determine if valuation allowances are required or should be adjusted. ASC 740 requires that companies assess whether valuation allowances should be established against their deferred tax assets based on consideration of all available evidence, both positive and negative, using a “more likely than not” standard of whether the deferred tax assets will be realized. As referenced in Note 1 above, as a result of the restated consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance of $5,116,000 against the consolidated net deferred tax assets as the Company determined the net deferred tax assets which includes net operating loss carry-forwards and other tax credits, are more likely not to be realized. During the six months ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance of $1,302,600 to the period change in the net deferred tax assets as the Company determined the net deferred tax assets which includes net operating loss carry-forwards and other tax credits, are more likely not to be realized and therefore the Company recorded a full valuation allowance. In the event that in the future the Company changes the determination as to the amount of deferred tax assets that can be realized, the Company will adjust the valuation allowance with a corresponding impact to the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made.

  

ASC No. 740 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and 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. ASC No. 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. As of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits related to various federal and state income tax matters.

 

The Company recognizes interest and penalties on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. The Company does not have any accrued interest or penalties associated with any unrecognized tax benefits. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax, as well as various state jurisdictions. The Company is currently open to audit under the statute of limitations by the federal and state jurisdictions for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2018 and after. The Company is currently open to audit under the statute of limitations by German tax authorities for the years ended December 31, 2018. The Company does not anticipate any material amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

  

Basic earnings or loss per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings or loss per common share includes the dilutive effect of stock options and warrants, if any. The Company was in a net loss position during the six months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021(unaudited), respectively, and the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, therefore the basic loss per share is the same as dilutive loss per share as the inclusion of the weighted-average number of all potential dilutive common shares which consists of stock options and warrants are anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

  

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Credit Losses-Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 requires entities to use a forward-looking approach based on current expected credit losses (“CECL”) to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. This may result in the earlier recognition of allowances for losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2023, and early adoption is permitted. While we will continue to evaluate the potential impacts of the new guidance, the Company does not believe the potential impact of the new guidance and related codification improvements will be material to its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

3. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company follows ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement”, which has defined the fair value of financial instruments as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements do not include transaction costs.

 

The accounting guidance also expands the disclosure requirements around fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Each fair value measurement is reported in one of the three levels, which is determined by the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are described below:

 

Level 1 Inputs that are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets

 

Level 2 Quoted prices in markets that are not considered to be active or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly

 

Level 3 Prices or valuation that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

 

In valuing assets and liabilities, the Company is required to maximize the use of quoted market prices and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company calculated the fair value of its Level 1 and 2 instruments based on the exchange traded price of similar or identical instruments where available or based on other observable instruments. These calculations take into consideration the credit risk of both the Company and its counterparties. The Company has not changed its valuation techniques in measuring the fair value of any financial assets and liabilities during the period.

 

The fair value of the contingent consideration obligations was based on a probability weighted approach derived from the estimates of earn-out criteria and the probability assessment with respect to the likelihood of achieving those criteria. The measurement was based on significant inputs that were not observable in the market, therefore, the Company classified this liability as Level 3 in the following tables.

 

The following tables set forth by level within the fair value hierarchy the Company’s financial assets that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, according to the valuation techniques the Company used to determine their fair values:

Impairment Loss

 

As referenced to “Restatement of Prior Period” in Note 1 above, during the preparation of its audited financial statements for the six-month transition period July 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022, the Company identified an error in the use of future projections and weighted average cost of capital used in the annual goodwill impairment testing of the Company’s Bioprocessing Systems segment. As a result of the annual goodwill impairment analysis, the Company determined the carrying value of the Bioprocessing Systems reporting unit exceeded its fair value and therefore the associated goodwill was impaired. Upon further analysis of the error, the Company determined that a goodwill impairment charge to the Bioprocessing Systems segment should have been applied in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. As a result of restating the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 consolidated financial statements, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $4,280,100 to the goodwill of the Bioprocessing Systems reporting unit as the excess of carrying value over fair value was higher than the recorded amount of goodwill for the reporting unit. As of December 31, 2022 there was no remaining goodwill to the Bioprocessing System reporting unit.

  

During the six months ended December 31, 2022, the Company determined a technology intangible asset in the Bioprocessing segment was impaired and wrote it down by $51,500, net of accumulated amortization, to its estimated fair value of $0. There was no impairment of intangible assets for six months ended December 31, 2021 (unaudited) or for the years ending June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

7. Acquisition of Aquila Biolabs GmbH

 

On April 29, 2021 the Company acquired all the outstanding capital stock of Aquila biolabs GmbH, a German start-up company in Baesweiler, Germany, engaged in the design, production, and sale of bioprocessing systems and products which focus on the control and analysis of bioprocesses in bioreactors and incubation shakers. The acquisition was pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) dated April 28, 2021 with official closing occurring on April 29, 2021 whereby the Company paid an aggregate of $7,880,100 in cash upon closing to the sellers. Aquila’s principal customers are universities, pharmaceutical companies, and industrial companies. The products are sold primarily on a direct basis and to a lesser extent, through distributors.

 

The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) in which the Company is treated as the accounting acquirer. In accordance with ASC 805, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been measured at fair value.

 

For purposes of measuring the estimated fair value, where applicable, of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the guidance in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) has been applied, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value. In accordance with ASC 820, fair value is an exit price and is defined as “the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.” Under ASC 805, acquisition-related transaction costs and acquisition-related restructuring charges are not included as components of consideration transferred but are accounted for as expenses in the period in which the costs are incurred.

 

Management of the Company allocated the purchase price based on its valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as follows:

Accounting Periods Presented

 

Aquila’s fiscal year ended on December 31.

In addition, certain historical Aquila balances have been reclassified to conform to the unaudited pro forma consolidated presentation. There were no transactions between the two companies during the period presented. No pro forma adjustments were made to conform Aquila’s accounting policies which follow Germany’s generally accepted accounting principles (“German GAAP”) to the Company’s accounting principles, as any differences were deemed immaterial.

13. Loss Per Common Share

 

The Company presents the computation of earnings per share (“EPS”) on a basic basis. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the reported period. Diluted EPS is computed similarly to basic EPS, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential additional common shares that were dilutive had been issued. Common shares are excluded from the calculation if they are determined to be anti-dilutive. The following table sets forth the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for each period presented.

Total provision for income taxes allocated to continuing operations for the six month ended December 31, 2022, and for the year ended June 30, 2022 (as restated) and 2021, respectively was $0, $2,390,800, and ($945,000), respectively.

In accordance with ASC 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), the Company evaluated the deferred tax assets to determine if valuation allowances are required or should be adjusted. ASC 740 requires that companies assess whether valuation allowances should be established against their deferred tax assets based on consideration of all available evidence, both positive and negative, using a “more likely than not” standard of whether the deferred tax assets will be realized. As referenced in Note 1 above, as a result of the restated consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance of $5,116,000 against the consolidated net deferred tax assets as the Company determined the net deferred tax assets which includes net operating loss carry-forwards and other tax credits, are more likely not to be realized and therefore the Company recorded a full valuation allowance. During the six months ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance of $1,302,600 to the period change in the net deferred tax assets as the Company determined the net deferred tax assets which includes net operating loss carry-forwards and other tax credits, are more likely not to be realized and therefore the Company recorded a full valuation allowance. In the event that in the future the Company changes the determination as to the amount of deferred tax assets that can be realized, the Company will adjust the valuation allowance with a corresponding impact to the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made.

 

The reconciliation of the provision for income taxes at the federal statutory rate of 21% to the actual income tax expense (benefit) for the applicable fiscal year is as follows:

The Company’s expected income tax expense (benefit) differs from its provision for income tax expense primarily due to the Company’s evaluation of its net deferred tax assets and the Company’s related assessment to record a full valuation allowance against those net deferred tax assets in applying the more-likely than not standard that is required under the applicable guidance under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the US.

19. Restatement of Prior Period

 

As of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, the Company previously reported no valuation allowance against the Company’s net deferred tax assets and the Company previously reported no goodwill impairment charge against the Bioprocessing Systems reporting unit’s goodwill.  Upon further analysis, the Company has determined the net deferred tax assets which includes net operating loss carry-forwards and other tax credits, are more likely not to be realized and therefore the Company recorded a full valuation allowance of $5,116,00 against the net deferred tax assets as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. Additionally, upon further analysis, the Company has determined the carrying value of the Bioprocessing Systems reporting unit exceeded its fair value and that the associated goodwill was impaired. The Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $4,280,100 to write off all the goodwill allocated to the Bioprocessing Systems reporting unit as the excess of carrying value over fair value was higher than the recorded amount of goodwill for the reporting unit, as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022.
