Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Business and Basis of Presentation – DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc. (“DanDrit USA”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”) (formerly Putnam Hills Corp) was originally incorporated in the state of Delaware on January 18, 2011 as a vehicle to pursue a business combination through the acquisition of, or merger with, an operating business. DanDrit BioTech A/S, a Danish Corporation was incorporated on April 1, 2001 (“DanDrit Denmark”). The Company engages in the research and development, manufacturing and clinical trials of pharmaceutical and biological products for the human treatment of cancer using the dendritic cell technology. Reverse Acquisition - On February 12, 2014, pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement (the "Share Exchange Agreement"), DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc. completed the acquisition of approximately 97% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of DanDrit BioTech A/S and as a result of became the parent company of DanDrit BioTech A/S (the “Parent”). Prior to the Merger there were 5,000,000 shares of the common stock, par value $.0001 per share of Parent outstanding, Parent and a shareholder agreed to cancel 4,400,000 shares of our common stock and issued 1,440,000 common shares for legal and consulting services related to the merger and future offering, pursuant to the Merger 3,879,624 outstanding shares of the common stock of DanDrit BioTech A/S, was exchanged for 1.498842 shares of Parent’s common stock, for a total of 5,814,945 shares resulting in 7,854,947 shares of Parent common stock being outstanding immediately following the Merger.DanDrit Biotech USA, Inc immediately prior to the closing. Consolidation - For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the DanDrit Denmark and the accounts and operations of DanDrit USA, Inc from February the date of acquisition of February 12, 2014 through March 31, 2014. The non-controlling interests in the net assets of the DanDrit Denmark are recorded in equity. The non-controlling interests of the results of operations of the subsidiaries are included in the results of operations and recorded as the non-controlling interest in subsidiaries. All material inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in the consolidation. On December 16, 2013, the DanDrit Denmark sold, for $1.00, the wholly-owned dormant subsidiary DanDrit Corporation PTE. LTD. a Singapore limited liability company incorporated on July 1, 2008. As this Singapore entity was a dormant subsidiary the financial statements include the $1 proceeds and gain on sale of the former subsidiary. Functional Currency / Foreign currency translation — The functional currency of DanDrit USA, Inc. is the U.S. Dollar. The functional currency of DanDrit Biotech A/S is the Danish Kroner (“DKK”). The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. Dollar for the purpose of these financial statements. The Company’s balance sheet accounts are translated into U.S. dollars at the period-end exchange rates and all revenue and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates prevailing during the years 2013 and 2012 and the period ending March 31, 2014. Translation gains and losses are deferred and accumulated as a component of other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the statement of operations as incurred. Cash and Cash Equivalents — The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had no balances held in financial institution in the United States in excess of federally insured amounts at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Property and Equipment — Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized, upon being placed in service. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed for financial statement purposes on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets which range from four to six years (See Note 3). Intangible Assets — Definite life intangible assets include patents. The Company accounts for definite life intangible assets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board, (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification, (“ASC”) Topic 350, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” and amortized the patents on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of twenty years. Costs incurred in relation to patent applications are capitalized cost and amortized over the estimated useful life of the patent. If it is determined that a patent will not be issued, the related remaining patent application costs are charged to expense. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - Long-lived assets, such as property, plant, and equipment and patents are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed of significantly before the end of its estimated useful life. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and would no longer be depreciated. The depreciable basis of assets that are impaired and continue in use is their respective fair values. Revenue Recognition and Sales — The Company’s sales of its MCV colorectal cancer vaccine have been limited to a compassionate use basis in Singapore after stage IIA trials and is not approved for current sale for any other use or location. The Company's accounts for revenue recognition in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (SAB 101), and FASB ASC 605 Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue when rights and risk of ownership have passed to the customer, when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, product has been shipped or delivered to the customer, the price and terms are finalized, and collections of resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Products are primarily shipped FOB shipping point at which time title passes to the customer. Value Added Tax - In Denmark, Value Added Tax (“VAT”) of 25% of the invoice amount is collected in respect of the sales of goods on behalf of tax authorities. The VAT collected is not revenue of the Company; instead, the amount is recorded as a liability on the balance sheet until such VAT is paid to the authorities. VAT of 25% is also paid to Danish and EU vendors on invoices these amounts are refundable from the respective governmental authority and recorded as other receivables in the accompanying financial statements. Research and Development Cost — The Company expenses research and development costs for the development of new products as incurred and is included in operating expense. There was no research and development costs for the three month period ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. Income Taxes — The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740 Accounting for Income Taxes. This statement requires an asset and liability approach for accounting for income taxes. Loss Per Share — The Company calculates earnings /(loss) per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260 Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per common share (EPS) are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per common share are based on shares outstanding (computed as under basic EPS) and potentially dilutive common shares. Potential common shares included in the diluted earnings per share calculation include in-the-money stock options that have been granted but have not been exercised. Derivatives - We generally do not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow, market or foreign-currency risks. However, we have entered into certain other financial instruments and contracts, such as debt financing arrangements with features that are either (i) not afforded equity classification, (ii) embody risks not clearly and closely related to host contracts, or (iii) may be net-cash settled by the counterparty. These instruments are required to be carried as derivative liabilities, at fair value. We estimate fair values of all derivative instruments, such as embedded conversion features utilizing Level 3 inputs (defined below in Note 1: Fair Value of Financial Instruments). We use the Black-Scholes option valuation technique because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including trading volatility, estimated terms and risk free rates) necessary to fair value these instruments. Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective inputs that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in our market price of our common stock, which have historically had high volatility. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair value, our income will reflect the volatility in these estimate and assumption changes. We report our derivative liabilities at fair value. Fair Value of Financial Instruments — The Company accounts for fair value measurements for financial assets and financial liabilities in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements”. The authoritative guidance, which, among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as the exit price, representing the amount that would either be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
| ● | Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
| ● | Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
| ● | Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
Unless otherwise disclosed, the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, investments, accounts payable, accrued expenses, capital lease obligations and notes payable approximates their recorded values due to their short-term maturities. Accounting Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimated. Recent Accounting Pronouncements — Recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements. Reclassification - The financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2013 have been reclassified to conform to the headings and classifications used in the March 31, 2014 financial statements.
