Note 1. Organization, Nature and Continuance of Operations

RenovaCare, Inc., together with its wholly owned subsidiary (the "Company"), focuses on the acquisition, research, development and, if warranted, commercialization of autologous (using a patient's own cells) cellular therapies that can be used for medical and aesthetic applications.

 

On July 12, 2013, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, RenovaCare Sciences Corp. ("RenovaCare Sciences"), completed the acquisition of its flagship technologies (collectively, the "CellMist™ System") along with the associated United States patent applications and two foreign patents, the first of which expires on August 22, 2027 and the second of which expires on April 26, 2031. The Cell Mist™ System is comprised of (a) a treatment methodology for cell isolation for the regeneration of human skin cells (the "CellMist™ Solution") and (b) a solution sprayer device (the "SkinGun™") for delivering the cells to the treatment area. The solution sprayer device also is a medical-grade liquid spraying device for general use in wound care and irrigation. Based on these technologies the Company has recently filed two additional patent applications, one with the United States Patent and Trademark Office titled "Modular Device for Cell Spraying" and one with the European Patent Office titled "Disposable Apparatus and Device with Unsterile Reusable Apparatus for Sterile Application of a Liquid."

 

The Company has recently incurred net operating losses and operating cash flow deficits. As of September 30, 2016, the Company's accumulated deficit is $10,584,575. The Company does not currently generate revenues and will continue to incur losses from operations and operating cash flow deficits in the future. Management believes that the Company's cash and cash equivalent balances and other external sources of capital will be sufficient to meet the Company's cash requirements through January 2017. The future of the Company after January 2017 will depend on its ability to successfully raise capital from external sources to fund operations. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate funds, or if such funds are not available to it on acceptable terms, the Company's ability to continue its business as planned will be significantly impaired and it may cause the Company to curtail operations.
