NOTE 1 — Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of Socket Mobile, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for fair presentation have been included. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted.

 

These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. The financial statements in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K were prepared on a going concern basis.

 

Liquidity and Going Concern

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 and the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company incurred net losses of $2,047,806 and $3,975,837, respectively. As of September 30, 2011, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $56,829,544. The Company’s cash balances at September 30, 2011 were $907,342. The Company’s balance sheet at September 30, 2011 has a current ratio of 0.8 to 1.0 (current assets divided by current liabilities), and a working capital deficit of $1,259,975 (current assets less current liabilities). These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to establish profitable operations and to increase its capital. The Company has been taking steps intended to reduce operating losses and achieve profitability including the introduction of new products, continued close support of its distributors and its application partners as they establish their mobile applications in key vertical markets, and management of its costs. The Company has the ability to reduce expenses further if necessary. In September 2011, the Company competed a cash-less conversion of its note and accrued interest to common stock (see “NOTE 4 — Senior Convertible Note” for more information). The Company believes that it will be able to improve its liquidity and secure additional sources of financing by managing its working capital balances, improving its operating results to cash positive levels, and raising additional capital as needed, including development funding from development partners, the addition of its credit facility in October 2011 (see “NOTE 12 — Subsequent Event” for more information), and through the issuance of additional equity securities. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving any of these steps, and there can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all, and any such terms may be dilutive to existing stockholders. The Company’s inability to secure and maintain the necessary liquidity would have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations. If the Company is unable to secure the necessary capital for its business, it may need to suspend some or all of its current operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If the Company can continue its revenue growth and attain profitability, it anticipates requirements for cash will include funding of higher receivable and inventory balances, and increased expenses, including more employees to support its growth and increases in salaries, benefits, and related support costs for employees.

 

 The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the Company’s inability to continue as a going concern.
