NOTE 1 — Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited 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. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future period.

 

These 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, 2014. 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 was profitable in the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. Net income for the third quarter of 2015 was $529,775, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to net income of $431,120, or $0.08 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2014. Net income for the nine months was $859,282, or $0.14 per diluted share, compared to net income of $452,510, or $0.09 per diluted share, for the same period one year ago.

 

The Company’s historical operating losses and declines in the working capital balances are conditions that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Except for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and fiscal years 2014 and 2004, the Company incurred significant operating losses in each financial period since its inception. As of September 30, 2015, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $59,831,275. The Company’s cash balances at September 30, 2015 were $862,070, including $413,212 advanced on its bank lines of credit. The Company’s balance sheet at September 30, 2015 has a current ratio (current assets divided by current liabilities) of 0.7 to 1.0, and a working capital deficit of $1,776,054 (current assets less current liabilities).

 

To improve operating results and maintain profitability, the Company has taken steps including limiting growth of headcount to manage payroll costs, the introduction of new products, and continued close support of its distributors and software application partners whose mobile applications support the use of the Company’s barcode scanning products. The Company believes it will be able to further improve its liquidity and secure additional sources of financing by managing its working capital balances, making use of its bank lines of credit, and raising additional capital as needed including the issuance of additional equity securities. However, there can be no assurance that additional capital will be available on acceptable terms, if at all, and any such terms may be dilutive to existing stockholders. The Company’s bank lines of credit may be terminated by the bank or by the Company at any time. If the Company cannot maintain profitability, it will not be able to support its operations from positive cash flows, and instead will use its existing cash to support operating losses. 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.

 

To maintain revenue growth and profitability, the Company anticipates requirements for cash will include funding of higher receivable and inventory balances, and increased expenses including an increase of costs relating to new 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.
