ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization and Business Description

Wrap Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), is a publicly traded company listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the trading symbol “WRTC”. The Company is a developer of security products designed for use by law enforcement and security personnel. The Company’s first product is the BolaWrap® 100 remote restraint device that discharges an eight-foot bola style Kevlar® tether to entangle a subject at a range of 10-25 feet. The principal markets for the Company’s proprietary products are in North and South America, Europe, Middle East and Asia.

 

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions (e.g., share-based compensation valuation, allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of inventory and intangible assets, warranty reserve, accrued costs and recognition and measurement of contingencies) that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

 

Public and Private Offerings

In December 2017, the Company completed a self-underwritten public offering raising gross proceeds of approximately $3.49 million from the sale of 2,328,533 shares of Common Stock at $1.50 per share. Three officers of the Company purchased 40,000 shares of the offering for $60,000.

 

On October 30, 2018 the Company obtained gross cash proceeds of $13.68 million and net cash proceeds of approximately $12.14 million from the sale of 4,561,074 units (“Units”) for $3.00 per Unit in a private offering. Each Unit consisted of one share of common stock and one detachable two-year warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share.

 

On June 18, 2019, the Company consummated a June 2019 Follow-On Offering, pursuant to which a total of 1,923,076 Units were offered and sold at a public offering price of $6.50 per Unit. Each Unit sold consisted of one share of Common Stock and one detachable two-year warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $6.50 per share. The offering resulted in the Company’s receipt of gross cash proceeds of $12.5 million, or net cash proceeds of $11.35 million after deduction of commissions and offering costs.

 

Concentrations of Risk

 

Credit Risk – Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consisted primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable from customers. The Company maintains its cash deposits at two domestic financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by a financial institution to the extent that cash and cash equivalents are in excess of the amount insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high-credit quality financial institutions. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses on its cash and cash equivalents.

 

Concentrations of Accounts Receivable and Revenue – The Company has recently commenced sales activities with a limited number of customers. The Company may experience concentrations in both accounts receivable and revenue due to the timing of sales and collections of related payments.

 

Concentration of Suppliers – The Company relies on a limited number of component suppliers and contract suppliers. In particular, a single supplier is currently the sole manufacturer of the Company’s laser assembly with some parts sole sourced from other suppliers. If supplier shortages occur, or quality problems arise, then production schedules could be significantly delayed or costs significantly increased, which could in turn have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operation and cash flows.

 

Stock Based Compensation

The Company follows the fair value recognition provisions issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”) and has adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-07 for share-based transactions with non-employees. Share-based compensation expense recognized during 2019 and 2018 includes stock option and restricted stock unit compensation expense. The grant date fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The grant date is the date at which an employer and employee or non-employee reach a mutual understanding of the key terms and conditions of a share-based payment award. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires inputs including the market price of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of grant, the term that the stock options are expected to be outstanding, the implied stock volatilities of several publicly-traded peers over the expected term of stock options, risk-free interest rate and expected dividend. Each of these inputs is subjective and generally requires significant judgment to determine. The grant date fair value of restricted stock units is based upon the market price of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of the grant. The fair value of share-based compensation is amortized to compensation expense over the vesting term.

 

Loss per Share

Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity. The Company’s losses for the periods presented cause the inclusion of potential common stock instruments outstanding to be antidilutive. Stock options, restricted stock units and warrants exercisable or issuable for a total of 9,857,457 and 7,084,681 shares of Common Stock were outstanding at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. These securities are not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share for the periods presented as their inclusion would be antidilutive due to losses incurred by the Company.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair values due to the short nature of these instruments.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company’s policy is to evaluate the collectability of accounts receivable based on an assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts and then record an allowance for doubtful accounts to reduce the receivables to an amount that management reasonably estimates will be collected. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts recorded at December 31, 2019 or 2018. Accounts that are deemed uncollectible will be written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts. If a major customer’s creditworthiness deteriorates, or actual defaults exceed our historical experience, such estimates could change and impact our future reported financial results.

 

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Prior to October 1, 2019 substantially all of the Company’s inventory was determined by the weighted average cost method which approximated the first in first out (FIFO) cost method. Effective October 1, 2019, with the change to a new computerized inventory system, the Company commenced identifying FIFO layers. The Company believes this transition change to FIFO will improve financial reporting by better reflecting the current value of inventory on the balance sheet, more closely aligning the flow of physical inventory with the accounting for the inventory and providing better matching of revenues and expenses. As the Company has only recently started selling products, and had limited purchase and sales activity, the weighted average method approximated FIFO and this change to FIFO had no material effect on the prior balance sheet, statement of operations or cash flows. Accordingly, no retrospective changes have been recorded.

 

Inventory is comprised of raw materials, assemblies and finished products intended for sale to customers. The Company evaluates the need for reserves for excess and obsolete inventories determined primarily based upon estimates of future demand for the Company’s products. At December 31, 2019 or 2018 the Company had no reserve for obsolescence.

 

Contract Manufacturers

The Company employs contract manufacturers for production of certain components and sub-assemblies. The Company may provide parts and components to such parties from time to time, but recognizes no revenue or markup on such transactions. During 2019 and 2018, the Company performed assembly of products in-house using components and sub-assemblies from a variety of contract manufacturers and suppliers.

 

Property, Equipment and Depreciation

Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation on property and equipment is computed over the estimated useful lives of three years using the straight-line method. The Company intends, on any retirement or disposition of property and equipment, that the related cost and accumulated depreciation or amortization will be removed and a gain or loss recorded.

 

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consisted of capitalized legal fees and filing costs related to obtaining patents and trademarks. Upon the Company’s first patent approval in July 2018 the Company commenced capitalizing patent and trademark costs. When a patent or trademark is issued the cost is amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated remaining lives which is 20 years from the initial filing. Trademarks are amortized on a straight-line basis over ten years, the estimated useful life of the assets.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets and identifiable intangibles held for use are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the sum of undiscounted expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset or if changes in facts and circumstances indicate, an impairment loss is recognized and measured using the asset’s fair value. The Company did not recognize any impairment loss during the periods ended December 31, 2018 and 2019.

 

Classification and Valuation of Warrants

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity or liabilities based upon the characteristics and provisions of each particular instrument. Warrants valued and classified as equity are recorded as additional paid-in capital based on the issue date fair value and no further adjustment to valuation is made. As of December 31, 2019, the Company has no warrants or other derivative financial instruments that require separate accounting as liabilities and periodic revaluation. However, in accordance with ASC 480 changes in director and officer ownership or other factors in future periods could require reclassification of outstanding warrants as a liability with changes in value thereafter reflected in the statement of operations.

 

Advertising and Promotion Costs

The Company expenses advertising costs in the period in which they are incurred. The Company incurred advertising costs of $165,119 and $27,218 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The Company incurred product promotion costs for demonstration products delivered to prospective customers of $433,172 and $192,484 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Advertising and promotion costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.

 

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs consist primarily of contract development costs and experimental work materials and certain startup costs. Research and development costs with no alternative use are expensed as incurred.

 

Leases

At the commencement date of a lease, the Company recognizes a liability to make lease payments and an asset representing the right to use the underlying asset during the lease term. The lease liability is measured at the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As its leases typically do not provide an implicit rate and due to lack of borrowing history or ability, the Company uses as its incremental borrowing rate a low-grade debt rate published by the Federal Reserve Bank. The right-of-use (“ROU”) asset is measured at cost, which includes the initial measurement of the lease liability and initial direct costs incurred by the Company and excludes lease incentives. Lease liabilities are recorded as a current liability for the portion due within one year with the balance as a long-term liability. ROU assets are recorded as other asset, net.

 

Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”) and ASC Subtopic 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs - Contracts with Customers (“ASC 340-40”), (collectively, “Topic 606”). On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Topic 606 and, as it had no prior revenue or contracts with customers, there was no transition required nor any impact on prior results. ASU 2014-09 requires entities to recognize revenue through the application of a five-step model, which includes identification of the contract, identification of the performance obligations, determination of the transaction price, allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations and recognition of revenue as the entity satisfies the performance obligations. See Note 2 for additional information.

 

Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of revenues. Shipping and handling costs invoiced to customers are included in revenue. Actual shipping and handling costs were $22,177 and $1,570 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Actual revenues from shipping and handling were $21,414 and $670 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

Warranty Reserves

The Company warrants its products and accessories to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year from the date of purchase. The warranty is generally limited. The Company currently provides direct warranty service. International market warranties are generally similar to the U.S. market.

 

The Company establishes a warranty reserve based on anticipated warranty claims at the time product revenues are recognized. Factors affecting warranty reserve levels include the number of units sold, anticipated cost of warranty repairs and anticipated rates of warranty claims. The Company evaluates the adequacy of the provision for warranty costs each reporting period. The warranty reserve was $13,923 and $428 at December 31, 2019 and 2018. Actual warranty costs could differ from estimates.

 

Segment Information

The Company has one operating segment with one business activity, providing restraint solutions. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its Chief Executive Officer, who manages operations for purposes of allocating resources.

 

Income Taxes

Until its conversion to a corporation on March 31, 2017, the Company was treated as a partnership for federal and state income tax purposes and did not incur income taxes. Instead, its losses were included in the income tax returns of the member partners. No income tax expense was recorded for the periods ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 due to losses incurred.

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the bases of certain assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purposes.

 

The Company maintains a valuation allowance with respect to deferred tax assets. The Company establishes a valuation allowance based upon the potential likelihood of realizing the deferred tax asset and taking into consideration the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the current period. Future realization of the deferred tax benefit depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income within the carry-forward period under the Federal tax laws. Changes in circumstances, such as the Company generating taxable income, could cause a change in judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax asset. Any change in the valuation allowance will be included in income in the year of the change in estimates.

 

Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated events subsequent to December 31, 2019 through the date the accompanying financial statements were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and noted that there have been no events or transactions which would affect the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

 

Recent Issued Accounting Guidance

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement:

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which is intended to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring the recognition of right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet. In July 2018, the FASB issued additional guidance which provided an additional transition method for adopting the updated guidance. Under the additional transition method, entities may elect to recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the year of adoption. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2019 using this modified retrospective approach. The adoption of the standard resulted in the recognition of a ROU asset and lease liability of approximately $12,900 for one operating lease as of January 1, 2019, with no impact to retained earnings.

 

Effective the First Quarter of 2020:

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (“Topic 820”): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The ASU modifies the disclosure requirements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, to improve the effectiveness of fair value measurement disclosures by removing or modifying certain disclosure requirements and adding other requirements. This ASU is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that ASU 2018-13 will have on its financial statements.

 

Other Pronouncements:

The Company has reviewed other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoptions of any such pronouncements will be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of operations.
