The Company also markets equipment that is used to apply these primary products including (1) Emergency Manhole FireIce Delivery System, or EMFIDS, an innovative system designed to deliver FireIce® into a manhole in the event of a fire or explosion, (2) FireIce® Home Defense Unit, a system for applying FireIce® to structures to protect them from wildfires and (3) the FireIce Shield CTP System, a mobile spray unit that can be used to protect communication tower electronics during hot work.

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, and we need to generate sufficient material revenues to support the ongoing business of GelTech.

The corporate office is located in Jupiter, Florida.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its three wholly-owned subsidiaries: FireIce Gel, Inc., GelTech International, Inc. and Weather Tech Innovations, Inc. There has been no activity in FireIce Gel, Inc., Weather Tech Innovations, Inc. and GelTech International, Inc.  

These unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (”SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by "GAAP" for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The information included in these unaudited consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations contained in this report and the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed on March 28, 2017.

Inventories

Inventories as of March 31, 2017 consisted of raw materials and finished goods in the amounts of $728,004 and $1,034,287, respectively.  As of March 31, 2017, the Company estimated that raw materials in the amount $479,486 would most likely not be consumed in the next twelve months and therefore reclassified that amount to long term inventory in the unaudited consolidated balance sheet.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management believes that the estimates utilized in preparing its consolidated financial statements are reasonable; however, actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Significant estimates for the three months ended March 31, 2017 include the allowance for doubtful accounts, depreciation and amortization, valuation of inventories, valuation of options and warrants granted for services or settlements, valuation of common stock granted for services or debt conversion, valuation of debt discount related to the beneficial conversion feature of convertible notes, accruals for litigation losses and the valuation of deferred tax assets.

Net Earnings (Loss) per Share

The Company computes net earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260-10, “Earnings per Share.” ASC 260-10 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. The Company’s diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.  At March 31, 2017, there were options to purchase 11,846,340 shares of the Company’s common stock, warrants to purchase 15,327,407 shares of the Company’s common stock and 24,221,161 shares of the Company’s common stock are reserved for convertible notes which may dilute future earnings per share.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for employee stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718-10, “Share-Based Payment,” which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options, restricted stock units, and employee stock purchases based on estimated fair values.

The Company accounts for non-employee stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 505-50-25, “Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees,” which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to non-employees based on estimated fair values.

Determining Fair Value Under ASC 718-10

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option-pricing formula. This fair value is then amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. The Company’s determination of fair value using an option-pricing model is affected by the stock price as well as assumptions regarding the number of highly subjective variables.

The Company estimates volatility based upon the historical stock price of the Company and estimates the expected term for employee stock options using the simplified method for employees and directors and the contractual term for non-employees.  The risk-free rate is determined based upon the prevailing rate of United States Treasury securities with similar maturities.

The fair values of stock options and warrants granted during the period from January 1, 2017 to March 31, 2017 were estimated using the following assumptions:

Risk free interest rate	1.19% - 1.88%
Expected term (in years)	2.0 - 5.0
Dividend yield	––
Volatility of common stock	97.10% - 99.06%
Estimated annual forfeitures	––

New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) which amended the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 establishes principles for recognizing revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the expected consideration received in exchange for those goods or services. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 (including interim reporting periods within those periods). Early adoption is permitted to the original effective date for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 (including interim reporting periods within those periods). The amendments may be applied retrospectively to each prior period (full retrospective) or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application (modified retrospective). The Company will adopt ASU 2014-09 in the first quarter of 2018 and apply the full retrospective approach. Because the Company's primary source of revenues is sales of products, the Company believes the impact of this new standard will be immaterial to the results of operations and will only impact the Company’s disclosure.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. The objective of this update is to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods.  Because the Company has not entered into any lease transactions, there will be no impact to the Company by this standard.

No Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs) which were not effective until after March 31, 2017 are expected to have a significant effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.
