The Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance on September 30, 2017 was approximately $91 thousand, down from $180 thousand on December 31, 2016. Major uses of cash were a $980 thousand loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, a decrease of approximately $712 thousand in bank debt, an increase of approximately $380 thousand in inventory, and an increase of approximately $284 thousand in prepaid expenses. These were offset by an increase of approximately $1.4 million in accounts payable and accrued expenses, a decrease of approximately $394 thousand in accounts receivable, and a decrease of approximately $190 thousand in other assets.

 

On September 30, 2017 the Company had approximately $595 thousand in bank debt for a $3.0 million asset-based credit line and had working capital of approximately $2.9 million, including approximately $91 thousand in cash and cash equivalents. On December 31, 2016 the Company had working capital of approximately $3.4 million including approximately $180 thousand in cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s current ratio at September 30, 2017 was 1.5 compared to 1.7 at December 31, 2016.

 

Although the Company has experienced losses in the past, the Company has experienced dramatic growth over the last year and one-half. Sales in 2016 were up 65% over sales in 2015 and sales in the first nine months of 2017 were up 62% over sales in the first nine months of 2016. The Company believes that year-over-year growth is likely to continue for the foreseeable future due to a number of factors including the strength of the Motorola brand, new product introductions, increased shelf space, growing online retailer sales, and international expansion. Because of projected sales increases, the associated improved net income, and its Financing Agreement (as defined below) with Rosenthal & Rosenthal, Inc., the Company expects to maintain acceptable levels of liquidity to meet its obligations as they become due for at least twelve months from the date of our quarterly filing of this Form 10-Q with the Securities Exchange Commission.
