Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and the accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been included. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and the accompanying notes, are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") and do not contain certain information included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. Therefore, the interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with that Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Going Concern

Going Concern

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company’s assets and the satisfaction of its liabilities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company incurred a net loss of $4,605,336 and cash used in operations was $1,036,947. The Company has experienced recurring operating losses and negative operating cash flows since inception, and has financed its working capital requirements during this period primarily through the recurring issuance of notes payable and advances from a related party. These facts indicate that there is substantial doubt of the Company’s continuation as a going concern.

 

Successful completion of the Company’s development programs and its transition to attaining profitable operations is dependent upon obtaining additional financing. The Company does not have sufficient resources to fund its operations for the next twelve months. Accordingly, the Company needs to raise additional funds in order to satisfy its future working capital requirements, which it may not achieve on commercially reasonable terms.

 

Continued negative cash flows and lack of liquidity create significant uncertainty about the Company’s ability to fully implement its operating plan, as a result of which the Company may have to reduce the scope of its planned operations. If cash resources are insufficient to satisfy the Company’s liquidity requirements, the Company would be required to scale back or discontinue its operations.

Reverse Merger Accounting

Reverse Merger Accounting

 

The Merger was accounted for as a reverse-merger and recapitalization in accordance with GAAP. SGT was the acquirer for financial reporting purposes and the Company was the acquired company. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and the operations that are reflected in the historical financial statements prior to the Merger will be those of SGT and will be recorded at the historical cost basis of the Company. The consolidated financial statements after completion of the Merger include the assets and liabilities of the Company and SGT, historical operations of SGT and operations of the Company from the closing date of the Merger. Common stock and the corresponding capital amounts of the Company pre-merger have been retroactively restated as capital stock shares reflecting the exchange ratio in the Merger. In conjunction with the Merger, SGT received no cash and assumed no liabilities from the Company. All members of the Company’s executive management are from SGT.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

 

In preparing these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions included in our consolidated financial statements relate to the valuation of long-lived assets, estimates of sales returns, inventory reserves and accruals for potential liabilities, and valuation assumptions related to equity instruments and share based payments.

Revenue

 Revenue

 

Revenue is recognized on the sale of a product when the product is shipped, which is when the risk of loss transfers to our customers, and collection of the sale is reasonably assured. A product is not shipped without an order from the customer and the completion of credit acceptance procedures. The majority of our sales are cash or credit card; however, we occasionally extend terms to our customers.  Accounts receivable are reviewed periodically for collectability.

Sales Returns

Sales Returns

 

We allow customers to return defective products when they meet certain established criteria as outlined in our sales terms and conditions. It is our practice to regularly review and revise, when deemed necessary, our estimates of sales returns, which are based primarily on actual historical return rates. We record estimated sales returns as reductions to sales, cost of sales, and accounts receivable and an increase to inventory. Returned products which are recorded as inventory are valued based upon the amount we expect to realize upon its subsequent disposition. As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there was no reserve for sales returns, which are minimal based upon our historical experience.

Warranty Costs

Warranty Costs

 

Estimated future warranty obligations related to certain products are provided by charges to operations in the period in which the related revenue is recognized. Estimates are based, in part, on historical experience. During the year ended December 31, 2012 we negotiated a $46,000 credit with one of our vendors for future expected warranty repairs to defective units. This amount will be used to offset expected repairs in future periods. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had utilized the entire $46,000 credit available as of December 31, 2012 and had concluded its business relationship with this particular vendor. 

Shipping and Handling Fees and Cost

Shipping and Handling Fees and Cost

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, shipping and handling fees billed to customers totaled $186,887 and $61,068, respectively, and were included in revenue. For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, shipping and handling fees billed to customers totaled $50,058 and $48,529, respectively, and were included in revenue.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, shipping and handling costs of $151,269 and $82,818, respectively, were included in cost of goods sold. For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, shipping and handling costs of $48,566 and $53,662, respectively, were included in cost of goods sold.

Advertising Costs

Advertising Costs

 

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses in the amount of $190,847 and $158,158, for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, advertising costs of $66,378 and $84,377, respectively, were included in general and administrative expenses.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

 

Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

Level 2 - Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

 

Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

 

The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payables, due to related party, notes payable, and 6% senior secured convertible notes approximates their fair values due to their short-term maturities.

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

Derivative financial instruments

 

The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a weighted average Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company issued warrants to Gemini Master Fund, LTD (“GMF”) (see “NOTE 18 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY/DEFICIT”) entitling GMF to purchase, at their discretion, 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The warrants were issued on May 1, 2013 in connection with the $280,000 OID Bridge Note that was also issued on May 1, 2013. The warrants have a five-year term with an original exercise price of $0.05 per share. The warrants vest immediately and are exercisable in whole, or in part, at any time and from time to time on or after the issue date and on or before the termination date. Per the terms of the Common Stock Purchase Warrant (the “Warrant Agreement”) between the Company and GMF, the exercise price was reset on June 4, 2013 to $0.035 per share due to the Company’s sale/issuance of shares at $0.035 per share under its Subscription Agreement.

 

On June 30, 2013, the Company valued the warrants at $250,000 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: (i) dividend yield of 0%; (ii) expected volatility of 240%; (iii) risk free rate of 0.04%, and (iv) an expected term of 5 years. The Company expensed the entire $250,000 as a non-cash charge to “warrants issued expense” during the three month period ended June 30, 2013. Details are disclosed in “NOTE 18 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY/DEFICIT”.

 

On September 5, 2013, the exercise price was reset again to $0.02156 per share as a result of the Company issuing shares of its common stock at said per share price in relation to a debt conversion related to the Company’s 7% Convertible Note (see “NOTE 16 – 7% CONVERTIBLE NOTE”). On September 30, 2013, the Company valued the warrants at $312,500 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: (i) dividend yield of 0%; (ii) expected volatility of 230%; (iii) risk free rate of 0.02% and (iv) expected term of 4.5 years. The Company fully expensed the $62,500 increase in the value of the warrants as a non-cash charge to “change in fair value of derivative” during the three month period ended September 30, 2013.

 

The Company has determined that the warrants are a derivative liability due to the “reset” clause associated with the exercise price. As a result, the Company recorded a $312,500 “derivative liability” on its balance sheet as of September 30, 2013 in relation to these warrants. Details are disclosed in “Note 9 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY”.

 

On August 29, 2013, the Company issued a 7% Convertible Note (the “7% Note”) to W-Net Fund I, L.P. (the “Holder”), a Delaware limited partnership, in exchange for the Revolving Promissory Note originally issued on June 7, 2013 by the Company to the Holder and amended on August 6, 2013 (the “Exchanged Note”) (see “NOTE 16 – 7% CONVERTIBLE NOTE”). Per the terms of the 7% Note, the Holder can, at its sole discretion, convert the outstanding and unpaid principal and interest into fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company’s common stock. The conversion price for the period of time from the date of this 7% Note through and including September 30, 2014 is the lesser of (a) $0.025 per share and (b) seventy percent (70%) of the average of the three (3) lowest daily volume weighted average closing prices occurring during the twenty (20) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the applicable conversion date on which the Holder elects to convert all or part of this 7% Note, subject to adjustment as provided in this 7% Note. The conversion price is $0.025 per share for the period of October 1, 2014 through the maturity date of September 30, 2015, subject to adjustment as provided in this 7% Note.

 

On September 5, 2013, the Holder converted $550,000 of principal into 25,510,204 shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.02156 per share. On September 17, 2013, the Holder converted $150,000 of principal into 6,957,328 shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.02156 per share. As of September 30, 2013, there was $50,000 of principal outstanding in relation to the 7% Note.

 

The Company has determined that the 7% Note is a derivative liability due to the “reset” clause associated with the conversion price. On August 29, 2013, the Company valued the derivative value of the 7% Note using the Black Scholes option pricing model (see “NOTE 9 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY”) and determined the value of the derivative liability associated with the 7% Note to be $640,074. The Company recorded the $640,074 as a derivative liability as of August 29, 2013 and it also recorded a corresponding $640,074 non-cash “loss on extinguishment of debt”.

 

On both September 5th and 17th, 2013, which were the above mentioned conversion dates, the Company revalued the derivative liability related to the $700,000 that had been converted. The Company determined that the value of the derivative liability had decreased by $185,529, which the Company recorded by decreasing the derivative liability associated with the 7% Note by $185,529 while also recording a $185,529 non-cash gain to “change in fair value of derivative”. Upon conversion of the $700,000, in the aggregate, on September 5th and 17th, the Company reclassified the remaining $411,874 of the derivative liability related to the $700,000 converted as an increase to “additional paid-in capital”.

 

As of September 30, 2013, the Company had a total derivative liability of $411,071, of which $312,500 was in relation to the warrants and $98,571 in relation to the 7% Note.

 

See “NOTE 9 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY” for a more detailed analysis of the Company’s derivative liability.

Loss Per Share

Loss Per Share

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common shares had been issued, using the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive common shares were excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation because they were anti-dilutive. 

 

As of September 30, 2013, there were 112,046,731 dilutive securities which are considered anti-dilutive and are not included in diluted loss per share. The following details the dilutive securities as of September 30, 2013:

 

Options   2,351,187  
Warrants     5,000,000  
6% senior secured convertible notes - principal & interest     78,554,181  
12% senior secured convertible notes - principal & interest     23,718,103  
7%  convertible notes - principal & interest     2,423,260  
      112,046,731  

 

Stock Based Compensation

Stock Based Compensation

 

We periodically issue stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. We account for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to employees based on Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, whereas the award is measured at its fair value at the date of grant and is amortized ratably over the vesting period. We account for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with ASC Topic 505, “Equity”, whereas the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either (a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or (b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete.

Inventories

Inventories

 

Inventories are recorded on a first in first out basis. Inventory consists of purchased finished goods and components held for resale. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market. The reserve for inventory was $77,843 at September 30, 2013 and $27,843 at December 31, 2012.

  

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Assets acquired held under capital leases are initially recorded at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments discounted at the implicit interest rate (35% for assets currently held under capital lease) or the fair value of the asset. Major improvements and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of five years. Assets acquired under capital lease are depreciated over the lesser of the useful life or the lease term. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

The Company evaluates the carrying value of goodwill during the fourth quarter of each year and between annual evaluations if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to (1) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in business climate, (2) unanticipated competition, or (3) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator. When evaluating whether goodwill is impaired, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to which the goodwill is assigned to the reporting unit’s carrying amount, including goodwill. The fair value of the reporting unit is estimated using a combination of the income, or discounted cash flows, approach and the market approach, which utilizes comparable companies’ data. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then the amount of the impairment loss must be measured. The impairment loss would be calculated by comparing the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill to its carrying amount. In calculating the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the other assets and liabilities of that unit based on their fair values. The excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the amount assigned to its other assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill.

 

We make critical assumptions and estimates in completing impairment assessments of goodwill and other intangible assets. Our cash flow projections look several years into the future and include assumptions on variables such as future sales and operating margin growth rates, economic conditions, market competition, inflation and discount rates. A 10% decrease in the estimated discounted cash flows for the reporting units tested would result in an impairment that is not material to our results of operations. A 1.0 percentage point increase in the discount rate used would also result in an impairment that is not material to our results of operations.

 

We amortize the cost of other intangible assets over their estimated useful lives, which range up to ten years, unless such lives are deemed indefinite. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested in the third quarter of each fiscal year for impairment, or more often if indicators warrant.

 

We recorded $87,747, and zero, of amortization charges related to other intangible assets for the nine months ending September 30, 2013 and September 2012, respectively.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

Adopted

 

Effective January 2012, the Company adopted ASU No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (ASU 2011-04). ASU 2011-04 represents the converged guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) on fair value measurement. A variety of measures are included in the update intended to either clarify existing fair value measurement requirements, change particular principles requirements for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. For many of the requirements, the FASB does not intend to change the application of existing requirements under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2011-04 was effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. 

 

In July, 2012, the FASB issued guidance on testing for indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. The new guidance allows an entity to simplify the testing for a drop in value of intangible assets such as trademarks, patents, and distribution rights. The amended standard reduces the cost of accounting for indefinite-lived intangible assets, especially in cases where the likelihood of impairment is low. The changes permit businesses and other organizations to first use subjective criteria to determine if an intangible asset has lost value. The amendments to U.S. GAAP will be effective for fiscal years starting after September 15, 2012. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

Effective January 2013, we adopted FASB ASU No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210):  Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (ASU 2011-11).  The amendments in ASU 2011-11 require the disclosure of information on offsetting and related arrangements for financial and derivative instruments to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position.  Amendments under ASU 2011-11 will be applied retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after January 1, 2013.  The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
