SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates underlying the financial statements include the collectability of notes receivable, collectability and reserve on accounts receivable, the reserve on insurance billing, and the fair value of stock options and warrants.

 

Fair Value Measurements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASC Topic 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3 - Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

 

The Company did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheets at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 820.

 

Due to the short-term nature of all financial assets and liabilities, their carrying value approximates their fair value as of the balance sheet dates.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.

 

The Company maintains its cash accounts at financial institutions which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. At times, the Company may have deposits in excess of federally insured limits.

 

Substantially all the Company’s accounts receivable are with companies in the healthcare industry, individuals, and the U.S. government. However, concentration of credit risk is mitigated due to the Company’s number of customers. In addition, for receivables due from U.S government agencies, the Company does not believe the receivables represent a credit risk as these are related to healthcare programs funded by the U.S. government and payment is primarily dependent upon submitting the appropriate documentation.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include short-term, liquid investments.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory consists of laboratory materials and supplies used in laboratory analysis. We capitalize inventory when purchased. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value on a first-in, first-out basis. We periodically perform obsolescence assessments and write off any inventory that is no longer usable.

 

Fixed Assets

 

Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes expenditures for furniture, office equipment, laboratory equipment, and other assets. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are sold, retired, or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations. The costs of fixed assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives or lease life of the related assets.

 

Useful lives assigned to fixed assets are as follows:

 

Computers Three years to five years
Lab Equipment Seven to ten years
Office Furniture Five to ten years
Other fixed assets Five to ten years
Leasehold Improvements Shorter of estimated useful life or remaining lease term

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. For intangible assets that have finite lives, the assets are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. For intangible assets with indefinite lives, the assets are tested periodically for impairment.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. The Company generally does not require collateral to support customer receivables. The Company determines if receivables are past due based on days outstanding, and amounts are written off when determined to be uncollectible by management. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there was an allowance for doubtful accounts of $18,634 and zero, respectively.

 

Offering Costs

 

Offering costs incurred in connection with equity are recorded as a reduction of equity and offering costs incurred in connection with debt are recorded as a reduction of debt as a debt discount.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

In accordance with ASC 606 (Revenue From Contracts with Customers), revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these services. To achieve this core principle, the Company applies the following five steps:

 

1) Identify the contract with a customer

 

2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract

 

3) Determine the transaction price

 

4) Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract

 

5) Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation

 

Revenues reported from services relating to the AditxtScore™ are recognized when the AditxtScoreTM report is delivered to the customer. The services performed include the analysis of specimens received in the Company’s CLIA laboratory and the generation of results which are then delivered upon completion.

 

The Company recognizes revenue in the following manner for the following types of customers:

 

Client Payers:

 

Client payers include physicians or other entities for which services are billed based on negotiated fee schedules. The Company principally estimates the allowance for credit losses for client payers based on historical collection experience and the period of time the receivable has been outstanding.

 

Cash Pay:

 

Customers are billed based on established patient fee schedules or fees negotiated with physicians on behalf of their patients. Collection of billings is subject to credit risk and the ability of the patients to pay.

 

Insurance:

 

Reimbursements from healthcare insurers are based on fee for service schedules. Net revenues recognized consist of amounts billed net of contractual allowances for differences between amounts billed and the estimated consideration the Company expects to receive from such payers, collection experience, and the terms of the Company’s contractual arrangements.

 

Leases

 

Under Topic 842 (Leases), operating lease expense is generally recognized evenly over the term of the lease. The Company has operating leases consisting of office space, laboratory space, and lab equipment.

 

Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. We combine the lease and non-lease components in determining the lease liabilities and right of use (“ROU”) assets.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation costs under the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense related to the fair value of stock-based compensation awards that are ultimately expected to vest. Stock-based compensation expense recognized includes the compensation cost for all stock-based payments granted to employees, officers, and directors based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718. ASC 718 is also applied to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled during the periods reported. Stock-based compensation is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite vesting period and over the nonemployee’s period of providing goods or services.

 

Patents

 

The Company incurs fees from patent licenses, which is reflected in research and development expenses, and are expensed as incurred. During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company incurred patent licensing fees for the patents of $263,273 and $76,455, respectively.

 

Research and Development

 

We incur research and development costs during the process of researching and developing our technologies and future offerings. We expense these costs as incurred unless such costs qualify for capitalization under applicable guidance. During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company incurred research and development costs of $7,268,084 and $5,042,617, respectively.

 

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

 

Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for each period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable of common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the dilutive effect of shares issuable through the common stock equivalents. The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2022, 44,710 stock options, 7,197 unvested restricted stock units, and 5,090,024 warrants were excluded from dilutive earnings per share as their effects were anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2021, 44,710 stock options, 15,565 unvested restricted stock units and 601,399 warrants were excluded from dilutive earnings per share as their effects were anti-dilutive.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized an implied dividend from the modification of warrants of $37,667 and $102,267, respectively. Theses implied dividends resulted in an increase in the net loss attributable to common stockholders.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The FASB issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. There have been several ASUs to date, including those above, that amend the original text of ASC. Management believes that those issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to us or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements.
