Substantial Doubt about Going Concern [Text Block]
NOTE
2
– LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred net losses and cash flow deficits from operations since its inception and has an accumulated deficit of 
$101.7
 million at 
March 31, 
2018.
 To date, the Company’s products have been approved for marketing and sales in Europe, Australia and the United States, and the Company started selling its product in Australia in 
2015,
 and in the United States in 
2017.
 Management expects operating losses and cash flow deficits to continue for the foreseeable future. The Company’s ability to achieve profitability is dependent primarily on its ability to gain market share in the U.S, build and maintain manufacturing capacity to support commercial launch in the U.S. and obtain a more profitable per unit manufacturing cost for its products. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least a year after the issuance date of  the accompanying consolidated financial statements.The Company plans to address  these conditions by  raising capital through equity or debt financings, or a combination of both, from outside current and new investors and institutions.  There is
no
assurance, however, that the Company will be successful in raising the needed capital and, if funding is available, that it will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do 
not
 include any adjustments that 
may 
be needed if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.
