FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or this Form 10-Q, contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and we intend that such forward looking statements be subject to the safe harbors created thereby. For this purpose, any statements contained in this Form 10-Q, except for historical information, may be deemed forward-looking statements. You can generally identify forward-looking statements as statements containing the words “will,” “would,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “assume,” “can,” “could,” “plan,” “predict,” “should” or the negative or other variations thereof or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. In addition, any statements that refer to projections of our future financial performance, trends in our businesses, or other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements.

 

Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations of our management based on available information and involve a number of risks and uncertainties, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control. As such, our actual results could differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, some of which are listed under the section “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. Readers should carefully review these risks, as well as the additional risks described in other documents we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In light of the significant risks and uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking information included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that such results will be achieved, and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking information. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to revise the forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

TOMI Environmental Solutions, Inc., a Florida corporation (“TOMI”, the “Company”, “we”, “our” and “us”) is a global provider of disinfection and decontamination essentials through our premier Binary Ionization Technology® (BIT™) platform, under which we manufacture, license, service and sell our SteraMist® brand of products, including SteraMist® BIT™, a hydrogen peroxide-based mist and fog. Our solution and process are environmentally friendly as the only biproduct from our decontamination process is oxygen and water in the form of humidity. Our solution is organically listed in the United States and Canada it is sustainably a green product with no or very little carbon footprint. Our business is organized into five divisions: Life Sciences, Healthcare, TOMI Service Network, Food Safety and Commercial.

 

Invented under a defense grant in association with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) of the U.S. Department of Defense, BIT™ is registered with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and uses a low percentage hydrogen peroxide as its only active ingredient to produce a fog composed mostly of a hydroxyl radical (.OH ion), known as ionized Hydrogen Peroxide (iHP™). Represented by the SteraMist® brand of products, iHP™ produces a germ-killing aerosol that works like a visual non-caustic gas.

 

Our products are designed to service a broad spectrum of commercial structures, including, but not limited to, hospitals and medical facilities, bio-safety labs, pharmaceutical facilities, meat and produce processing facilities, universities and research facilities, vivarium labs, other service industries including cruise ships, office buildings, hotel and motel rooms, schools, restaurants, military barracks, police and fire departments, prisons, and athletic facilities. Our products are also used in single-family homes and multi-unit residences. Additionally, our products have been listed on the EPA’s List N as products that help combat COVID-19 and are actively being used for this purpose.

 

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein, presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles utilized in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and stated in U.S. dollars, have been prepared by us, without an audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

 

These financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022 and notes thereto which are included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K previously filed with the SEC on March 16, 2023. We follow the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports. The results of operations for the interim periods covered by this Form 10-Q may not necessarily be indicative of results of operations for the full fiscal year or any other interim period.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TOMI and its wholly owned-subsidiary, TOMI Environmental Solutions, Inc., a Nevada corporation. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Reclassification of Accounts

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior-year comparative financial statements to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no material effect on previously reported results of operations or financial position.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to accounts receivable, inventory, fair values of financial instruments, intangible assets, useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, fair values of stock-based awards, income taxes, and contingent liabilities, among others. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of our assets and liabilities.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or the most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal market that are (i) independent, (ii) knowledgeable, (iii) able to transact, and (iv) willing to transact. The guidance describes a fair value hierarchy based on the levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, which are the following:

 

 

Level 1:

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

 

Level 2:

Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

 

Level 3:

Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the value of the assets or liabilities.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximated fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, held at financial institutions and other liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. At times, these deposits may be in excess of insured limits. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were no cash equivalents.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Our accounts receivable are typically from credit-worthy customers or, for certain international customers, are supported by pre-payments. For those customers to whom we extend credit, we perform periodic evaluations of their status and maintain allowances for potential credit losses as deemed necessary. We have a policy of reserving for credit losses based on our best estimate of the amount of potential credit losses in existing accounts receivable. We periodically review our accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account may be in doubt. Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. Bad debt expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively was approximately $54,000 and $0. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the allowance for doubtful accounts reserve was $1,678,000.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories consist primarily of finished goods and raw materials.

 

We expense costs to maintain certification to cost of goods sold as incurred.

 

We review inventory on an ongoing basis, considering factors such as deterioration and obsolescence. We record an allowance for estimated losses when the facts and circumstances indicate that particular inventories may not be usable. Our reserve for obsolete inventory was $95,000 as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

 

Property and Equipment

 

We account for property and equipment at cost less accumulated depreciation. We compute depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally three to five years. Depreciation for equipment, furniture and fixtures and vehicles commences once placed in service for its intended use. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the lives of the respective leases or service lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter.

 

Leases

 

We recognize a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability for all leases with terms of more than 12 months, in accordance with ASC 842. We utilize the short-term lease recognition exemption for all asset classes as part of our on-going accounting under ASC 842. This means, for those leases that qualify, we will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities. Recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses depends on classification as a finance or operating lease.

Table of Contents

 

As a lessee, we utilize the reasonably certain threshold criteria in determining which options we will exercise. Furthermore, our lease payments are based on index rates with minimum annual increases. These represent fixed payments and are captured in the future minimum lease payments calculation. In determining the discount rate to use in calculating the present value of lease payments, we used our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at adoption date in determining the present value of lease payments.

 

We have also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all asset classes, meaning all consideration that is fixed, or in-substance fixed, will be captured as part of our lease components for balance sheet purposes. Furthermore, all variable payments included in lease agreements will be disclosed as variable lease expense when incurred. Generally, variable lease payments are based on usage and common area maintenance. These payments will be included as variable lease expense in the period in which they are incurred.

 

Capitalized Software Development Costs

 

In accordance with ASC 985-20 regarding the development of software to be sold, leased, or marketed, we expense such costs as they are incurred until technological feasibility has been established, at and after which time those costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers. The periodic expense for the amortization of capitalized software development costs will be included in cost of sales. Amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, was $0 and $10,476, respectively.

 

Accounts Payable

 

As of March 31, 2023, one vendor accounted for approximately 45% of accounts payable. As of December 31, 2022, two vendors accounted for approximately 55% of accounts payable.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, two vendors accounted for 59% and 69% of cost of sales, respectively.

 

Accrued Warranties

 

Accrued warranties represent the estimated costs, if any, that will be incurred during the warranty period of our products. We estimate the expected costs to be incurred during the warranty period and record the expense to the condensed consolidated statement of operations at the date of sale. Our manufacturers assume the warranty against product defects from date of sale, which we extend to our customers upon sale of the product. We assume responsibility for product reliability and results. As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, our warranty reserve was $30,000 and $68,000, respectively. (See Note 14).

Income Taxes

 

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The measurement of deferred income tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits that are, on a more likely than not basis, not expected to be realized in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes guidance for income taxes. Net deferred tax benefits have been fully reserved at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

 

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic net income or (loss) per share is computed by dividing our net income or (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period presented. Diluted income or (loss) per share is based on the if converted method and includes the effect from potential issuance of shares of common stock, such as shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of options and warrants and conversions of preferred stock or debentures.

 

Potentially dilutive securities as of March 31, 2023 consisted of 2,773,585 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants, 610,500 shares of common stock issuable upon vesting and exercise and 63,750 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of outstanding shares of Preferred A stock (“Convertible Series A Preferred Stock”).

 

Potentially dilutive securities as of March 31, 2022 consisted of 2,826,710 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants, 413,000 shares of common stock issuable upon outstanding options and 63,750 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of outstanding shares of Preferred A stock (“Convertible Series A Preferred Stock”).

 

Diluted net income or (loss) per share is computed similarly to basic net income or (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potential shares of common stock had been issued and if such additional shares were dilutive. Options, warrants, and preferred stock of approximately 3.4 million and 3.3 million exercisable or convertible into shares of common stock were outstanding at March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, respectively, but were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share at March 31, 2023 due to the anti-dilutive effect on net loss per share.

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). We recognize revenue when we transfer promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for contracts with customers we perform the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy the performance obligation(s). At contract inception, we assess the goods or services promised within each contract, assess whether each promised good or service is distinct and identify those that are performance obligations.

 

 
14

Table of Contents

 

We must use judgment to determine: a) the number of performance obligations based on the determination under step (ii) above and whether those performance obligations are distinct from other performance obligations in the contract; b) the transaction price under step (iii) above; and c) the stand-alone selling price for each performance obligation identified in the contract for the allocation of transaction price in step (iv) above.

 

Title and risk of loss generally pass to our customers upon shipment. Our Customers include end users as well as dealers and distributors who market and sell our products. Our revenue is not contingent upon resale by the dealer or distributor, and we have no further obligations related to bringing about resale. Shipping and handling costs charged to customers are included in Product Revenues. The associated expenses are treated as fulfillment costs and are included in Cost of Revenues. Revenues are reported net of sales taxes collected from Customers.

Product revenue includes sales from our standard and customized equipment, solution and accessories sold with our equipment. Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products.

Table of Contents

 

Service and training revenue include sales from our high-level decontamination and service engagements, validation of our equipment and technology and customer training. Service revenue is recognized as the agreed upon services are rendered to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those services.

 

Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer

 

We apply a practical expedient to expense costs as incurred for costs to obtain a contract with a customer when the amortization period would have been one year or less. We generally expense sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are recorded within selling expenses.

 

Contract Balances

 

As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022 we did not have any unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.

 

Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations

 

Our contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. We enter into contracts that can include various combinations of products and services, which are primarily distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations.

 

Significant Judgments

 

Our contracts with customers for products and services often dictate the terms and conditions of when the control of the promised products or services is transferred to the customer and the amount of consideration to be received in exchange for the products and services.

 

Equity Compensation Expense

 

We account for equity compensation expense in accordance with FASB ASC 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation.” Under the provisions of FASB ASC 718, equity compensation expense is estimated at the grant date based on the award’s fair value.

 

 
16

Table of Contents

 

The valuation methodology used to determine the fair value of options and warrants issued as compensation during the period is the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes model requires the use of a number of assumptions including volatility of the stock price, the average risk-free interest rate, and the weighted average expected life of the options. Risk–free interest rates are calculated based on continuously compounded risk–free rates for the appropriate term. The expected term of the Company’s warrants has been determined utilizing the “simplified” method for awards that qualify as “plain-vanilla” warrants. The dividend yield is assumed to be zero as the Company has never paid or declared any cash dividends on its Common Stock and does not intend to pay dividends on its Common Stock in the foreseeable future. The expected forfeiture rate is estimated based on management’s best assessment.

 

On July 7, 2017, our shareholders approved the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2016 Plan. The 2016 Plan authorizes the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance units/shares. Up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock are authorized for issuance under the 2016 Plan. Shares issued under the 2016 Plan may be either authorized but unissued shares, treasury shares, or any combination thereof. Provisions in the 2016 Plan permit the reuse or reissuance by the 2016 Plan of shares of common stock for numerous reasons, including, but not limited to, shares of common stock underlying canceled, expired, or forfeited awards of stock-based compensation and stock appreciation rights paid out in the form of cash. Equity compensation expense will typically be awarded in consideration for the future performance of services to us. All recipients of awards under the 2016 Plan are required to enter into award agreements with us at the time of the award, and awards under the 2016 Plan are expressly conditioned upon such agreements. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, we issued 60,000 and 51,750 shares of common stock, respectively, out of the 2016 Plan.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. We maintain cash balances at financial institutions which exceed the current Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit of $250,000 at times during the year.

 

Long-Lived Assets Including Acquired Intangible Assets

 

We assess long-lived assets for potential impairments at the end of each year, or during the year if an event or other circumstance indicates that we may not be able to recover the carrying amount of the asset. In evaluating long-lived assets for impairment, we measure recoverability of these assets by comparing the carrying amounts to the future undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If our long-lived assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized equals the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair market value. We base the calculations of the estimated fair value of our long-lived assets on the income approach. For the income approach, we use an internally developed discounted cash flow model that includes, among others, the following assumptions: projections of revenues and expenses and related cash flows based on assumed long-term growth rates and demand trends; expected future investments to grow new units; and estimated discount rates. We base these assumptions on our historical data and experience, industry projections, micro and macro general economic condition projections, and our expectations. We had no long-lived asset impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

 

Advertising and Promotional Expenses

 

We expense advertising costs in the period in which they are incurred. Advertising and promotional expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 were approximately $197,000 and $194,000, respectively.

Research and Development Expenses

 

We expense research and development expenses in the period in which they are incurred. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, research and development expenses were approximately $71,000 and $37,000, respectively.

 

Business Segments

 

We currently have one reportable business segment due to the fact that we derive our revenue primarily from one product. A breakdown of revenue is presented in “Revenue Recognition” in Note 2 above.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

 

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. This ASU eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors that have adopted ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which we adopted on January 1, 2020. This ASU also enhances the disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancing and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, the ASU amends the guidance on vintage disclosures to require entities to disclose current period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of ASC 326-20. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted the ASU prospectively on January 1, 2023. This ASU is currently not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (Topic 805). This ASU requires an acquirer in a business combination to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities (deferred revenue) from acquired contracts using the revenue recognition guidance in Topic 606. At the acquisition date, the acquirer applies the revenue model as if it had originated the acquired contracts. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted this ASU prospectively on January 1, 2023. This ASU is currently not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 7. LEASES

 

In April 2018, we entered into a 10-year lease agreement for a new 9,000-square-foot facility that contains office, warehouse, lab and research and development space in Frederick, Maryland. The lease agreement commenced in December 2018 when the property was ready for occupancy. The agreement provided for annual rent of $143,460, an escalation clause that increases the rent 3% year over year, a landlord tenant improvement allowance of $405,000 and additional landlord work as discussed in the lease agreement. We took occupancy of the property on December 17, 2018 and the lease was amended in March 2019 to provide for a 4-month rent holiday and a commencement date of April 1, 2019. A 7% discount rate was determined using used our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at adoption date in determining the present value of lease payments. Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

COVID-19 Pandemic

 

The COVID-19 pandemic has temporarily increased the global demand for disinfection products and services that help prevent the spread and transmission of COVID-19 virus. The Company’s products have been identified as an essential disinfectant and decontamination vendor by various agencies and countries, which have materially affected its business and results of operations. The Company experienced a substantial increase in demand for our products and services in 2020 due to the pandemic. Throughout 2021, the Company experienced a reduction of demand due to various factors, including the closure of our major customers’ business operations due to the pandemic, which resulted in the suspension of many of its ongoing long-term projects. As the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic began to subside and economic activities gradually return to normal in 2022, customers reallocated their resources elsewhere and reduced their spending on disinfection products, which resulted in lower demand for our products. It is difficult to predict how COVID-19 pandemic will affect the Company’s financial performance in throughout fiscal year 2023, as the global economy gradually reopens, customers adjust and change their operations, and the Company implements new marketing and sales strategies in response.

 

NOTE 12. CONTRACTS AND AGREEMENTS

 

Director Compensation

 

In January 2023, we increased the annual fee to the non-employee members of our Board to $48,000, to be paid in cash on a quarterly basis, with the exception of the audit committee chairperson, whose annual fee was increased to $54,600, also to be paid in cash on a quarterly basis. Non-employee Director compensation also includes the annual issuance of our common stock.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we issued an aggregate of 51,750 shares of common stock that were valued at approximately $54,000 to members of our Board.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we issued an aggregate of 60,000 shares of common stock that were valued at approximately $51,000 to members of our Board.

NOTE 15. INCOME TAXES

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, our provision for income tax was $0. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The measurement of deferred income tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits, which are, on a more likely than not basis, not expected to be realized in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we recorded a valuation allowance of $5,664,000 and $5,332,000, respectively for the portion of the deferred tax assets that we do not expect to be realized. Management believes that based on the available information, it is more likely than not that the remaining U.S. deferred tax assets will not be realized, such that a full of 100% valuation allowance is required against U.S. deferred tax assets. The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that such tax rate changes are enacted.

 

NOTE 16. CUSTOMER CONCENTRATION

 

Two customers accounted for 26% of net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Three customers accounted for 41% of net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

 

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, one customer accounted for 16% and 14% of our gross accounts receivable, respectively.

Quarterly Highlights

 

Business Update

 

In the first quarter of 2023 we continued to expand our sales channels and distribution networks, increased brand awareness through marketing efforts and achieved a significant sales milestone with one of our major customers.

Table of Contents

 

During the first quarter we added one independent manufacturing representative and five distributors to our expanding national and global network - JANZ Corporation, New England Scientific Associates (NESA) by Baker, Crow Food Safety (Pty) Ltd, ARES Scientific, PennCare and Technimount Systems. The newly added sales partners bring a wealth of experience and expertise in government, life sciences, and food safety markets located in the United States, Canada and South Africa. We have begun to deliver on new contracts, with multiple orders placed in the first quarter of 2023. Our SteraMist inventory from these orders will enable our new partners to improve supply chain and operational efficacy by directly delivering SteraMist products to their customers.

 

U.S.-based medical supplier and distributor, JANZ Corporation, holds government contracts to provide medical and healthcare products to the Department of Homeland Security, Defense Logistics Agency, and Department of Defense. This collaboration presents an opportunity for us to expand our reach into the government sector as a trusted provider of disinfection solutions.

 

We also welcomed New England Scientific Associates (NESA) by Baker as a new independent manufacturing representative. NESA by Baker represents leading manufacturers of biotechnology and research equipment. With NESA’s expertise and established infrastructure, SteraMist is well-positioned to achieve success in our new turnkey integration projects, which involves integrating SteraMist into cage washers, decontamination chambers, and other related equipment.

 

Globally, we joined forces with Crow Food Safety (Pty) Ltd, also trading as Crow Environmental Solutions. The company is a life science and medical industry distributor and a preferred supplier of food safety and hygiene products in South Africa and Sub-Saharan Africa, representing our first venture in this region, while furthering expansion in the food safety industry on a global scale.

 

In a strategic move to further its reach in the life sciences industry, our manufacturing representative, ARES Scientific, has evolved its service model and is now a new distributor of our products. With a track record of successfully selling SteraMist, ARES Scientific has earned a reputation as a reliable and innovative provider of cutting-edge products for vivarium and life science facilities. The new role of ARES as a SteraMist distributor opens growth opportunities for us in the life science market.

 

PennCare will help us strength our presence in the emergency medical services market throughout the United States.

 

Technimount System is a highly reputable manufacturer and distributor that provides products to a variety of industries, including emergency medical services, hospitals, and military environments. With an extensive network of customers, Technimount has established itself as a trusted source for high-quality products and services. As part of its commitment to providing top-of-the-line solutions, Technimount System has recently signed an exclusive agreement with TOMI, a leading provider of disinfection and decontamination solutions. Technimount has adopted TOMI’s SteraMist system as its preferred disinfection solution, allowing Technimount to offer its customers a more effective and efficient way of disinfecting their environments.

 

In the first quarter, we received notification of global acceptance as a provider of decontamination services and equipment for an American multinational pharmaceutical and biotechnology corporation, which we have been providing iHP decontamination services and selling capital equipment to many of its facilities for many years. This represents a major milestone for us, as it promises to allow for easier acceptance in future and additional facilities of the corporation and its subsidiaries.

Table of Contents

 

During the first quarter, we remained active in our marketing initiatives and attended and presented our SteraMist brand of products at three leading pharmaceutical conferences held by the International Society for Pharmaceutical Engineering (ISPE). In addition, we are shortly launching our new website, which will be accessible through the new domain name steramist.com. The refreshed website will offer a modern, user-friendly design and streamlined navigation, providing visitors with easy access to essential information about SteraMist products and services. It features a sleek and professional design, highlighting SteraMist’s advanced disinfection technology and its many applications in various industries. Visitors can learn about the benefits of using SteraMist’s patented ionized Hydrogen Peroxide (iHP) technology, which has been proven to kill harmful pathogens, including COVID-19, with unmatched efficacy and efficiency.

 

As the market shifts to fully automatic disinfection decontamination, TOMI continues to market and submit bids on CES projects and building the pipeline for these installations. Further, TOMI has expanded bandwidth to meet the demands for the product line and has not been significantly affected by the global supply chain issues.

 

During the first quarter, we delivered a CES system to Orna Therapeutics, a leading biotechnology company located in Massachusetts. As we complete each CES project, our iHP technology is becoming widely preferred as a decontamination solution for pharmaceutical and biotech companies. Further, with each new CES installation the product line becomes more of a turnkey solution. We obtained the Orna project through a prior colleague from Dana Farber Cancer Institute who became a spokesperson to the preference of SteraMist iHP for Orna.

 

SteraMist Manufacturing remains on schedule for the delivery of two additional CES’s this year and routinely continues to bid out projects for current and potential new customers alike. These referrals and acceptances of TOMI’s SteraMist iHP technology is expected to lead to growth in our CES revenue in 2023, 2024 and beyond. In addition, we believe the CES systems will have a positive impact on our long-term recurring BIT solution sales.

 

During the first quarter, we continued to add notable research universities to our growing portfolio with the addition of the University of Hawaii and Oregon State University. On March 8, 2023 we entered into a Service Agreement with LFB USA a company within the LFB Group, a leading European biopharmaceutical company specialized in the development and manufacturing of innovative biotherapies which commits LFB to engage TOMI for high level disinfection of one or more facilities.

 

 Vertical Crop Consultants, a Food Safety Independent Sales Representative partner to TOMI as of late last year, was onboarded as a formal customer during our first quarter 2023. Vertical Crop has generated interest in the industry during their short time with TOMI and now as a customer completed a joint study with an American seed company and head breeder for one of the world’s most famous cannabis strains. This third-party study found SteraMist to be effective in eliminating aspergillus and powdery mildew while protecting cannabis growth and without affecting quality. Each phase of the study proved SteraMist iHP can be a consistent solution to prevent spores at every stage of the growing process, a huge cost savings for the industry.

 

The total amount of our recognized revenue and customer sales backlog for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was approximately $3,129,000 which was comprised of recognized revenue of $1,582,000 and a customer sales backlog of approximately $1,547,000 of which we received $618,000 as cash deposit.

In evaluating sales related performance, management analyzes our revenue recognized for GAAP purposes which is presented in our quarterly and annual statement of operations as well as our sales orders we receive from customers during those same accounting periods. We define a “sales order” as a document we generate for our internal use in processing a customer order. Our sales orders essentially translate the format of the customer purchase orders we receive from our customers into the format used by us. We also evaluate our “customer sales backlog” which is defined as pending sales orders where revenue has not yet been recognized. Management believes analyzing the sales order and backlog metrics are useful in measuring our overall sales and business development performance as it gauges the overall volume of sales and business development activities.

 

Product Development

 

Our recent products developed and launched are as follows:

 

SteraMist Engineering has been diligently working with an up-and-coming California cell therapy manufacturer on a revolutionary game changing prototype for the industry – an industry that is expected to be $11.6 billion by 2030. The order received late last year for the prototype is currently set to be completed by the end of June 2023.

 

SteraMist Engineering continues to make strides collaborating with key manufactures of cleanroom technology and equipment developing a turnkey seamless decontamination integration to chambers, cabinets, passthroughs, isolators, cage washers, heat sterilizers, hot cells and more. TOMI begins this endeavor with a project management, turnkey modular solution and process design consulting firm that we have partnered with in one of our previous CES projects.

 

The Select Plus-a hybrid product consisting of the Company’s current Surface Select and Environment systems. The unit will provide enhanced flexibility by using a single applicator to decontaminate full-room to small-space volume while maintaining the size of the current Surface Select unit with more robust process controls. The iHP SteraMist Transport System has been designed for the transportation market, specifically ambulances. The iHP SteraMist Transport System is a timer based fogging system that can be installed semi-permanently or permanently and used for any transport and/or cargo vehicle. It will be an easy-to-use turn-key integration system. We expect the implementation of this product and our patented non-corrosive iHP technology toreplace the number one competitor in this marketplace, which uses an extremely harsh chemical.

 

All SteraMist systems will remain important to the marketplace as they are designed for specific needs and budgets. The Select Surface Unit performs most of the functionality that the Plus offers and is priced at a lower cost, although Select Plus will provide additional options that are appealing to certain customers, such as laboratory and pharmaceutical companies. The SteraPak is a more cost-effective product and designed for residential and commercial real estate including large buildings and public space, any area that needs quick consistent disinfection. There are many new and existing clients that are interested in the SteraPak due to the cost and mobility.

TOMI recently launched its fourth generation SteraMist Environment System. The system will now be 24 volts, allowing for universal outlet usage and convert even more of the hydrogen peroxide BIT Solution to hydroxyl radicals thus lowering H2O2 PPM levels allowing for faster turnaround time. In addition, the unit will have eight (8) outputs where four (4) are dedicated to our regular process of constant or pulse Injection, Dwell, and Aeration along with a light beacon status bar and four (4) are programmable to meet the customer needs for any external equipment they may desire to work with the system. This system is currently on the market, has been implemented by customers and receiving praise for its further developments.

 

Our SteraMist® BIT solution product line is currently made up of a 32-ounce bottle for the SteraPak, a ten (10) liter, five (5) gallon, 55 gallon drum for our custom built-ins and our traditional one (1) gallon bottle. This brings the BIT Solution product line to a total of five (5) options provided to our customers, which will benefit our razor/razor-blade business model.

 

We expect these new products and service introductions will positively impact our net sales, cost of sales and operating expenses during this fiscal year.

 

Overview

 

TOMI Environmental Solutions, Inc. (“TOMI”, “we” and “our”) is a global bacteria decontamination and infectious disease control company, providing environmental solutions for indoor air and surface decontamination through the manufacturing, sales, service and licensing of our SteraMist® brand of products, including SteraMist® BIT™, a low percentage (7.8%) hydrogen peroxide-based fog or mist that uses Binary Ionization Technology (“BIT™”). Our solution and process are environmentally friendly as the only by-product from our decontamination process is oxygen and humidity. Our solution is organic and is listed in Canada as a sustainably a green product with no carbon footprint. Most of our competitors in the disinfection space leave significant by-products and are corrosive. SteraMist is not corrosive, and it does not damage equipment or facilities.

 

Our SteraMist® is a patented technology that produces ionized Hydrogen Peroxide (“iHP™”) using cold plasma science created under a grant by the United States Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (“DARPA”). Our Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) registered BIT™ Solution is composed of a low concentration of hydrogen peroxide converted to iHP™ after passing the trade secret blended solution including its sole active ingredient of 7.8% hydrogen peroxide through an atmospheric cold plasma arc. The newly formed iHP™ fog and mist consists of submicron’s to 3-micron radical particles that are carried throughout the treatment area in a fog or mist moving with the same velocity and characteristics of a gas. This allows the ionized hydrogen peroxide fog or mist to affect all surfaces and air space throughout the targeted treatment area, over, above and beyond the ability of a manual cleaning processes. iHP™ damages pathogenic organisms through the oxidation of proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids. SteraMist® no-touch disinfection and or decontamination treat areas mechanically, causing cellular disruptions and/or dysfunctions resulting in a 6-log (99.9999%) and greater kill or inactivation of all pathogens in the treatment area. This is a science that the world needs to follow. This simple and effective process-takes 7.8 % hydrogen peroxide and under pressure pushes the liquid through a nozzle in which the stream is met by an atmospheric cold plasma arc which converts the hydrogen peroxide into a plasma created hydroxyl radical with 6-log and greater kill. This is a duplication of what occurs in atmospheric chemistry and the only by-product is oxygen and humidity.

Under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (“FIFRA”), we are required to register with the EPA and certain state regulatory authorities as a seller of disinfectants. In June 2015, SteraMist® BIT™ was registered with the EPA as a hospital-healthcare disinfectant and general broad-spectrum surface disinfectant for use as a misting/fogging agent. SteraMist® BIT™ now holds EPA registrations (# 90150-2) for mold control, and air and surface remediation (# 90150-1). In February 2016, we expanded our label with the EPA to include Clostridium difficile Spores and MRSA, as well as the influenza (Avian) virus h1n1, which we believe has better positioned us to penetrate all industries including the biodefense and healthcare industry. In August 2017, our EPA label was further expanded to include efficacy against Salmonella and Norovirus. As of January 27, 2017, our technology is one of 53 of the EPA’s “Registered Antimicrobial Products Effective against Clostridium difficile Spores”, as published on the EPA’s K List. Further, in December 2017, SteraMist® was included in the EPA’s list G (Norovirus), L (Ebola) and M (Avian Flu). In March 2020, our EPA label was further amended to include Emerging Viral Pathogens claims, thus meeting the criteria against Enveloped viruses and Large Non-enveloped viruses and included on List N (Emerging Viral Pathogens including SARS-CoV-2). In 2021, the EPA granted SteraMist® BIT™ 0.35% hydrogen peroxide – EPA registration number 90150-3. On June 2, 2022, SteraMist was included on the EPA’s List Q for the use of its BIT solution to help fight the spread of rare or novel viruses such as Monkeypox virus, SARS-CoV-2 and its variants that causes COVID-19.

 

SteraMist® BIT™ brings to the world a mechanical and automated method of cleaning using a game-changing technology and EPA registered Hospital-HealthCare disinfectant providing an upgrade to existing disinfecting and cleaning protocols while limiting liability in a facility when it comes to resistant infectious pathogens. We maintain this registration in all fifty (50) states, Washington DC, Canada, and approximately forty (40) other countries receive our product.

 

Markets

 

Our SteraMist® products are designed to address a wide spectrum of industries using iHP. Our operations consist of five main divisions based on our current target industries: Hospital-HealthCare, Life Sciences, TOMI Service Network (“TSN”), Food Safety, and Commercial.

 

We continue to offer our customers a wide range of innovative mobile products designed to be easily incorporated into their existing disinfection and decontamination procedures and protocols. Our SteraPak, among other product lines will allow us to progress further into market share, specifically for our Life Science, Hospital-HealthCare, TSN, and Commercial divisions. Additionally, we offer integrated facility equipment installations known as Custom Engineered Systems (“CES”), routine & emergency iHP Corporate Service, essential training packages, validations and qualifications, and onsite performance maintenance requests.

 

 
35

Table of Contents

 

Each of these are structured to address the unique disinfection and decontamination needs of our customers worldwide regardless of industry requiring or requesting SteraMist® disinfection decontamination.

 

A brief overview of the target industries is presented below:

 

Life Sciences

 

The SteraMist® Environment System, CES, the SteraMist® Select Surface Unit, Select Surface Unit (Plus), SteraMist Transport System, SteraBox, 90 Degree Applicator and our iHPCorporate Service Division, are designed to be tailored to provide a complete solution to address the regulatory inspections of disinfecting/decontaminating and Installation Qualification (IQ)-Operational Qualification (OQ)–Performance Qualification (PQ) validation processes within the life sciences industry.

 

Long term, ongoing projects and validations continue to be a focus and lead to proposals and interest for our CES permanent decontamination room. As these are longer lead-time sales and manufactured upon order that can take months to design, procure, assemble, and install. The continuous use of the systems or purchasing of BIT Solution occurs once the system has been commissioned and validated. We expect installations to have a positive material impact to our results in 2023 and 2024.

 

TOMI’s iHP service department continues to grow with new and existing customers in several divisions. In the life science sector, TOMI’s iHP service department has kept its relationships with large pharmaceuticals (Pfizer/ThermoFisher) as well as adding several smaller life science companies (ForDoz/Lonza) to a regular decontamination schedule. In addition to these productions’ facilities, TOMI has treated four BSL-3 research laboratories in all parts of the country within the last two months (UNM/UNC/Bioqual/Scripps). The food safety department steadily gains traction as several plant/produce companies have expressed interest as new and emerging bacteria, toxins, and fungi hamper production. Finally, the commercial division is a stable source of revenue for TOMI and its service network who are routinely treating public facilities after man-made and natural disasters.

 

For 2023 and beyond, TOMI expects growth in SteraMist CES bids and the manufacturing and implementation of these fully automated decontamination systems. The installed CES will also result in increased solution sales for the Life Sciences as the CES’s are used at regular intervals. The first CES system was completed in 2016 for Dana Farber Cancer Institute, as Dana Farber was designing a new vivarium and had the opportunity to integrate several new technologies to advance overall efficiency, quality, and design. One such technology was the use of our iHP decontamination. TOMI’s CES is an automated system that can be fully integrated into any company’s infrastructure, enabling decontamination, without burdening manual use and with the collaboration of current premier customers and partners, TOMI since then has further perfected the system. The CES eliminates issues such as human error, guarantees accuracy that is unmatched by competitors, and decreases a client’s labor cost and downtime, and in a short time the CES may make up a majority of TOMI’s revenue. Since its launch, SteraMist’s CES has become a leading solution to growing customer demands.

The SteraMist® line of products, specifically the SteraMist® Surface Unit, SteraMist® Total Disinfection Cart and the SteraMist Transport System are our main solutions to aid our Hospital-HealthCare customers in providing high quality of safety to their patients and personnel by disinfecting operating rooms, pharmacies, ambulances, and emergency environments throughout a healthcare facility. TOMI’s latest product, the SteraPak®, further assists healthcare communities with an easy-to-use, cordless disinfection solution, creating a more mobile solution. Our customers that have successfully adopted our technology in Hospital-Healthcare facilities, have recurring revenue and reorder rates of our BIT™ Solution. We plan to continue to expand our marketing, advertising and educational campaigns targeted at the Hospital-Healthcare marketing to grow our customer base and increase adoption of our SteraMist® line of products.

 

Our team of technicians and representatives train, maintain, and service capital equipment throughout the world for our Hospital-HealthCare customers. As our Training and Implementation department expands, we expect continued growth and purchases in our Hospital-HealthCare division. TOMI provides protocol development and implementation of SteraMist® as it is critical in the healthcare setting, including pandemic preparedness.

 

TOMI anticipates expansion of current HealthCare customers to follow the model of Gila River Health Care. Gila River is one of TOMI’s largest Healthcare customers owning a total of fourteen (14) Surface Units and eight (8) SteraPak’s. The Gila River Indian Community (GRIC) is an Indian reservation in Arizona that is made up of seven (7) districts and is home to the Akimel O’oodham (Pima) and the Pee-Posh (Maricopa) tribes. Gila River Health Care, a premier Native American healthcare system, provides high quality patient care, delivering a wide variety of medical services such as general surgery, dental, and emergency medicine, as well as associated health services such as pharmacy and laboratory operations, skilled nursing, rehabilitation, and medical transport.

 

Food Safety

 

Food Safety

 

New challenges to food safety will continue to emerge, largely because of changes in our food production, food supply, storage complexities, transportation delays, including more imported foods. Changes in the environment leads to food contamination, new and emergent bacteria, toxins, and antimicrobial resistance. Food Safety presents an opportunity for significant growth for TOMI with continued product research and compliance testing.

 

The food safety industry in North America is under closer scrutiny with the implementation and enforcement of new and established guidelines. SteraMist® aerosolizing cold plasma technology is an effective decontaminant in the food safety industry. SteraMist can assist in compliance with the newly established Food Safety Modernization Act guidelines set in place by the FDA, as well as the Safe Food for Canadians Act and Safe Food for Canadians Regulations in Canada. Today’s Geopolitical aspects of farming and ranching has created an extra layer of concern for the protection of our global limited food supply including food transportation. The Food Safety and Inspection Services (FSIS) an agency within the USDA uses SteraMist technology in three of their labs and early this year we submitted a bid for Ionized Hydrogen Peroxide Decontamination with the Government of Canada and Public Services Procurement Department, which was granted in May 2023 to be used in the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.

 

TOMI continues to work with premium companies, such as Soli Organics and Coteva in testing and validating SteraMist® technology in the Food Safety and seed industries. In 2022, we made progress in enhancing brand awareness in the food safety industry by promoting and marketing this division. We are receiving an increase in inquiries within the Food Safety division directly from these efforts.

Every day there are news articles around the world pertaining to the contamination of food supply. Unsafe food containing harmful bacteria, viruses, parasites, or chemical substances causes more than 200 diseases, ranging from diarrhea to cancers. It also creates a vicious cycle of disease and malnutrition, particularly affecting infants, young children, elderly and the sick. With the global population explosion, severe worldwide avian flu pandemics resulting in the unnecessary culling of bird flocks, unusually high number of accidents resulting in the destruction of dozens of storages, packing and processing food plants, in the U.S. alone, we anticipate an increase in the demand for a mechanical way to disinfect our food supply. TOMI has, in cooperation with the USDA, demonstrated that our technology offers a consistent, quick, and effective alternative to the traditional, decade’s old chemical disinfection process.

 

SteraMist will deliver more consistent and quicker results in all areas of our food supply- From Farm to Market, Processing to packaging and Storage to delivery. We plan on pursuing all these avenues. With the continued testing and need for the market coupled with our new .35% label, should make pursuing these opportunities successful. In addition, our solution and process are environmentally friendly in that the by-product of SteraMist is only oxygen and humidity. We have our solution listed on OMRI and labeled as organic. Most disinfectants leave residue on furniture, objects, and foods. SteraMist does not leave any chemical residue on any surface, therefore we have a very low carbon footprint, if any.

 

TOMI Service Network

 

The TOMI Service Network, or TSN, is an expansive network consisting of professionals throughout North America who are exclusively licensed and trained to use the SteraMist® products. With the purchase of SteraMist and joining TSN, TOMI trains and services a wide array of professional remediation companies in the use of SteraMist® throughout the TSN division. TSN allows for increased accessibility and brand awareness of iHP® services to facilities in need of local routine and emergency disinfection and decontamination.

 

The TOMI Service Network (“TSN”) division is addressing the cleaning protocols that have changed permanently due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and our network is expected to play a significant role in facilitating and maintaining these protocols throughout the United States and Canada. The urgency for emergency disinfection services is starting to pick up due to employees returning to work and the increasing number of contagious variants becoming more of a world concern. Our education and support of such services that TOMI personnel provide to our members creates an advantage by maintaining strong business relationships while they service thousands of SteraMist® customers, and the world returns to the new normal which will always focus on emerging pathogens.

 

Our SteraPak® release is an important factor for this market that we will increase the new member onboarding. Current members are showing interest in purchasing the SteraPak® to expand their current SteraMist® offerings.

 

Commercial

 

Our Commercial division includes but is not limited to use sites such as aviation, airports, police and fire, prisons, manufacturing companies, automobile, military, cruise ships, shipping ports, preschool education, primary and secondary schools, colleges including dormitories, all modes of public and private transportation, regulatory consulting agencies, retail, housing and recreation, and of course emergency preparedness for counties and cities to use SteraMist® throughout their community.

Table of Contents

 

The Surface unit and SteraPak® is a popular product for this division because customers are looking for a more cost-effective solution compared to the current disinfectants on the market. As quick and mobile disinfection solution is preferred in this industry, we believe that our surface unit along with the SteraPak® will generate customer interest and create sales opportunities. Currently our customers are purchasing our products in all of our divisions to provide quick disinfection throughout various sites in their facilities.

 

Business Highlights and Recent Events

 

Revenues:

 

The total amount of our recognized revenue and customer sales backlog for the three months ended March 31, 2023, together, was approximately $3,129,000 which was comprised of recognized revenue of $1,582,000 and a customer sales backlog of approximately $1,547,000 of which we received $618,000 as cash deposit.

 

As of March 31, 2023, our balance sheet has deferred revenue of $618,000 which represents down payments on future equipment and CES orders that are expected to be recognized into revenue in future accounting periods.

 

We believe that we possess the best technologies in the world in the disinfection and decontamination space. This past pandemic along with the needs of the pharmaceutical and vivarium space has provided us with the confidence to develop a clear strategy to develop and manufacture additional products to add to our portfolio. In addition, we continue to move our BIT technology as a standard in disinfection and decontamination globally. This should lead to increased market share, profitability, and capability strength.

 

 Our products are an environmentally friendly solution and our processes address the concerns of sustainability. Customers are requesting and discussing the positive results of our product and the environmentally friendly results compared to the caustic and environmentally unfriendly results of many other disinfectants.

 

SteraMist has established a successful track record in fighting pandemics and outbreaks and implementing SteraMist for emergency preparedness is vital. As COVID-19 pandemic has taken the world by surprise, history has shown that other pandemics and viruses are deemed to follow. Using a proven and trusted disinfectant, SteraMist, for emergency outbreaks and daily for preventative maintenance will alleviate the threat of infections from spreading and could stop a possible outbreak.

On April 26, 2023, we announced that approximately 20 billion medical devices are sterilized per year with Ethelene oxide and a proposal restriction restricting its usage could create a significant market void that may be filled with alternative sterilization processes such as TOMI’s patented Binary Ionization Technology ® (BIT™) Technology.

 

Research Studies and Publications:

 

TOMI continues to be active in the global market, using registrations to expand sales opportunities. Currently, TOMI is in the registration process for India, and renewal to meet new requirements in the Philippines. Both markets offer excellent potential due to interest in the TOMI suite of disinfection/ decontamination solutions.

 

TOMI is in the annual process of self-audit, where all SOPs are reviewed and updated as needed, and all compliments and requests for changes and or new equipment are evaluated. 

 

TOMI has successfully completed a second 24-month storage stability, this one to meet US EPA requirements (first one was for EU BPR submission and had different methods/requirements). With the patented 7.8% product, Binary Ionization Technology Solution is safe to ship by air and store under normal ambient conditions around the world. The study will be submitted for EPA review, and expiration date extended going forward upon EPA approval.

 

The EPA has registered our 0.35% hydrogen peroxide product (90150-3) for the use in greenhouses, pre harvests and post harvests. TOMI is conducting internal studies with the 0.35% on common pathogens in the food safety market to enhance protocols. TOMI has begun the process of registering the 0.35% BIT Solution with individual states in the United States in preparation of growth in the cannabis market.

 

We continue to pursue acceptance of the additional 1% hydrogen peroxide label with the EPA for direct food application. While TOMI continues to pursue the market for these two EPA registrations, we have partnered and conducted other food safety trials which have shown success in the market.

Recent SteraMist food safety customers and partners are conducting further studies to prove SteraMist in the industry. Soli Organic Inc., one of the nation’s largest commercial indoor organic growing companies, obtained multiple SteraMist systems to protect their controlled indoor growing food process from costly fungus, Botrytis. The combination of all SteraMist systems purchased will be used daily, on a continuous cycle, to disinfect everything from seed trays that the soil and plants sit in, and the plants themselves.

 

SteraMist is also working with a few partners in the cannabis industry. Enviro-Mist has been testing cannabis flower incubated with Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus terreus, Escherichia Coli, Shigella Spp, Salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus, yeasts and molds and subsequently treated using ionized Hydrogen Peroxide (iHP) to the dried material. Potency results of the cannabis plant were not affected, and no additional residual solvents were found. The process was successful in complete remediation of all microbial contaminants. Another partner TOMI is working with has proven SteraMist that has reduced microbial count on cannabis flower from 400cfu/g to non-detectable without affecting the level of THC. SteraMist continues to penetrate the market with additional studies and bringing on premier clients.

 

Registrations & Intellectual Property (IP):

 

 Our success depends in part upon our ability to obtain and maintain proprietary protection for our products and technologies. We protect our technology and products by, among other means, obtaining United States and foreign patents. There can be no assurance, however, that any patent will provide adequate protection for the technology, system, product, service or process it covers. In addition, the process of obtaining and protecting patents can be long and expensive. We also rely upon trade secrets, technical know-how, and continuing technological innovation to develop and maintain our competitive position.

 

As part of our intellectual property protection strategy, we have registered our BIT™ solution with the EPA, all fifty (50) states in the United States, and multiple countries worldwide. We have received or are in the process of receiving Conformité Européene (“CE”) marks in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and are approved by Underwriters Laboratory (“UL”).

 

Our portfolio includes more than twenty-one (21) Utility Patent applications worldwide which expire at various dates through the year 2043 for both method and system claims on SteraMist® BIT™, either published or undergoing prosecution. We continue to pursue further claims to additional capabilities in on-going United States and worldwide patent applications. We have obtained two related United States utility patents giving us protection of our technology until the year 2038. Recently, we have obtained allowance of a third US patent application, which will issue as a patent this year. We have obtained utility patents for our technologies in diverse countries such as Brazil, Japan, Korea, Israel, Australia, Taiwan, Canada, Mexico, and, we have recently obtained allowance of further patents currently pending, in Europe and Singapore, and continue to pursue protections all over the world.

Table of Contents

 

We have submitted utility patent applications in multiple countries, including Europe, China, Brazil, Korea and Australia for further additional applications of SteraMist BIT, and a related application has already been determined novel and inventive in Taiwan, Japan, and Singapore. We have been awarded a design patent on our surface-mounted applicator device in the United States, China, Japan, Taiwan, and Korea. We have filed and have been granted or have pending acceptance on thirty-two (32) separate design patents for our: Decontamination Chamber(s), Decontamination Applicator, Decontamination Cart, Applicator, and Surface Mounted Applicator 90-Degree Device. These patents are published around the world, including but not limited to United States, China, Hong Kong, Europe, United Kingdom, Singapore, Taiwan, Vietnam, Canada, South Korea, and Japan. We are also pursuing IP protection for further applications of our SteraMist BIT in diverse fields in multiple jurisdictions, such as food decontamination and, as the initial DARPA grant proved the application of iHP for the protection of buildings post outbreak or after a biological attack. With worldwide attention on the etiology of SARs CoV2 coming from a lab leak, attention on the prevention and control of a leak or mishap should be on the mind of all the biological labs managers around the world. The fact that iHP and our BIT platform can be incorporated in a new or existing buildings to create an “immune building” should assist in further lab applications of SteraMist in the biosecurity industry in the future.

 

Our products are sold around the world under various brand names and trademarks. We consider our brand names and trademarks to be valuable in the marketing of our products. As of today, we have over two hundred trademarks, (word and/or logo) registered or pending across the globe. TOMI registers marks in eight (8) classes of specification of goods and services: Class 1 for Chemicals for Treating Hazardous Waste, Class 5 for Disinfectants, All-Purpose for Hard Surfaces and for Treating Mold, Class 7 for Handheld Power Operated Spraying Machines, Class 11 for Sterilizers for Medical Use and Air Purification, Class 35 for Business Consultation and Management Services, Class 37 for General Disinfecting Services, Class 40 for Chemical Decontamination and Manufacturing Services, and Class 41 for Providing Education Training and information related to biological and bacterial decontamination services.

Revenue

 

Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, was $1,582,000 and $2,309,000, respectively, representing a decrease of $727,000, or 31% compared to the same prior year period. The decline in revenue is due to lower mobile equipment and customer-imposed delivery restrictions for equipment and CES orders and the related impact to our revenue recognition and deferred revenue.

 

As customers mature through the product and adoption cycle and our sales pipeline converts to revenue, we expect to generate more predictable sales quarter over quarter. Further, as the COVID-19 pandemic has ended, we are implementing new strategies to generate demand for our products and services to address the post COVID-19 pandemic market opportunities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of March 31, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2,469,000 and working capital of $7,870,000. Our principal capital requirements are to fund operations, invest in research and development and capital equipment, and the continued costs of compliance with public company reporting requirements. We have historically funded our operations through funds generated through operations and debt and equity financings. The sale of additional equity securities could result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and may include operating and financial covenants that would restrict our operations. We cannot be certain that any financing will be available in the amounts we need or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

 

In September 2021, we sold 2,869,442 shares of common stock through a registered direct offering to certain institutional investors and issued warrants to purchase 1,434,721 shares of common stock in a concurrent private placement. We received net proceeds from the transaction of $4,581,651, after deducting the placement agent’s fees and other offering expenses. The Warrants have an exercise price of $1.68 per share, are exercisable immediately upon issuance and have a term of exercise equal to five years from the date of issuance.

Liquidity

 

Our revenues can fluctuate due to the following factors, among others:

 

 

·

ramp up and expansion of our internal sales force and manufacturer’s representatives;

 

·

length of our sales cycle;

 

·

global response to the outbreak of infectious diseases;

 

·

expansion into new territories and markets; and

 

·

timing of orders from distributors.

 

We could incur operating losses and an increase of costs related to the continuation of product and technology development, sales expense as we continue to grow our sales teams, inventory as we continue to ensure we have products needed and geographic presence, tooling capital expenditures as we ramp up and streamline our production and administrative activities including compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 Section 404.

Table of Contents

 

Management has taken and will endeavor to continue to take a number of actions in order to improve our results of operations and the related cash flows generated from operations in order to strengthen our financial position, including the following items:

 

 

·

expanding our label with the EPA to further our product registration internationally;

 

·

continued expansion of our internal sales force and manufacturer representatives in an effort to drive global revenue in all verticals;

 

·

continue research and development and add new products to our “Stera” product line;

 

·

source alternative lower-cost suppliers;

 

·

expansion of international distributors; and

 

·

continued growth in all of our verticals.

 

During 2022, we experienced increased demand for our CES where we collect deposits upon the execution of the contract. The deposits we receive fund the production for the CES and improve our overall liquidity through the duration of the project. We believe our sales for our CES will continue to grow in 2023 and improve our financial results from a liquidity perspective as well as improve our operating margins due to the higher recurring solution sales we see for our CES system.

 

As of March 31, 2023, we maintained a customer sales backlog of $1,547,000 of which we anticipate will be recognized into revenue and will provide a boost to our cash generated from core operations in our 2023 calendar year. We believe our sales pipeline and the related deferred revenue will continue to grow in 2023 and improve our liquidity position during the next twelve months.

 

We expect that the cash we generate from our core operations will generally be sufficient to cover our future capital expenditures and to pay down our near-term debt obligations.

 

We believe that our existing balance of cash and cash equivalents and amounts expected to be provided by operations will provide us with sufficient financial resources to meet our cash requirements for operations, working capital and capital expenditures over the next twelve months.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The estimation process requires assumptions to be made about future events and conditions, and as such, is inherently subjective and uncertain. Actual results could differ materially from our estimates.

 

The SEC defines critical accounting estimates as those that are, in management’s view, most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and most demanding of our judgment. We consider the following estimates to be critical to an understanding of our consolidated financial statements and the uncertainties associated with the complex judgments made by us that could impact our results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

 

 
49

Table of Contents

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). We recognize revenue when we transfer promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for contracts with customers we perform the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy the performance obligation(s). At contract inception, we assess the goods or services promised within each contract, assess whether each promised good or service is distinct and identify those that are performance obligations.

 

We must use judgment to determine: a) the number of performance obligations based on the determination under step (ii) above and whether those performance obligations are distinct from other performance obligations in the contract; b) the transaction price under step (iii) above; and c) the stand-alone selling price for each performance obligation identified in the contract for the allocation of transaction price in step (iv) above.

 

Title and risk of loss generally pass to our customers upon shipment. Our customers include end users as well as dealers and distributors who market and sell our products. Our revenue is not contingent upon resale by the dealer or distributor, and we have no further obligations related to bringing about resale. Shipping and handling costs charged to customers are included in Product Revenues. The associated expenses are treated as fulfillment costs and are included in Cost of Revenues. Revenues are reported net of sales taxes collected from customers.

 

Product revenue includes sales from our standard and customized equipment, solution and accessories sold with our equipment. Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products.

 

Service and training revenue include sales from our high-level decontamination and service engagements, validation of our equipment and technology and customer training. Service revenue is recognized as the agreed upon services are rendered to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those services.

 

Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer

 

We apply a practical expedient to expense costs as incurred for costs to obtain a contract with a customer when the amortization period would have been one year or less. We generally expense sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are recorded within selling expenses.

 

 
50

Table of Contents

 

Contract Balances

 

As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022 we did not have any unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.

 

Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations

 

Our contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. We enter into contracts that can include various combinations of products and services, which are primarily distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations.

 

Significant Judgments

 

Our contracts with customers for products and services often dictate the terms and conditions of when the control of the promised products or services is transferred to the customer and the amount of consideration to be received in exchange for the products and services.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to accounts receivable, inventory, fair values of financial instruments, intangible assets, useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, fair values of stock-based awards, income taxes, and contingent liabilities, among others. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of our assets and liabilities.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The authoritative guidance for fair value measurements defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or the most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal market that are (i) independent, (ii) knowledgeable, (iii) able to transact, and (iv) willing to transact. The guidance describes a fair value hierarchy based on the levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, which are the following:

 

 

Level 1:

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

 

Level 2:

Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

 

Level 3:

Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the value of the assets or liabilities.

 

 
51

Table of Contents

 

Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses. All these items were determined to be Level 1 fair value measurements.

 

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximated fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Our accounts receivable are typically from credit worthy customers or, for certain international customers, are supported by pre-payments. For those customers to whom we extend credit, we perform periodic evaluations of them and maintain allowances for potential credit losses as deemed necessary. We have a policy of reserving for doubtful accounts based on our best estimate of the amount of potential credit losses in existing accounts receivable. We periodically review our accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account may be in doubt. Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories consist primarily of finished goods.

 

We expense costs to maintain certification to cost of goods sold as incurred.

 

We review inventory on an ongoing basis, considering factors such as deterioration and obsolescence. We record an allowance for estimated losses when the facts and circumstances indicate that particular inventories may not be usable.

 

Leases

 

We recognize a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability for all leases with terms of more than 12 months, in accordance with ASC 842. We utilize the short-term lease recognition exemption for all asset classes as part of our on-going accounting under ASC 842. This means, for those leases that qualify, we will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities. Recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses depends on classification as a finance or operating lease.

 

As a lessee, we utilize the reasonably certain threshold criteria in determining which options we will exercise. Furthermore, our lease payments are based on index rates with minimum annual increases. These represent fixed payments and are captured in the future minimum lease payments calculation. In determining the discount rate to use in calculating the present value of lease payments, we used our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at adoption date in determining the present value of lease payments.

 

 
52

Table of Contents

 

We have also elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for all asset classes, meaning all consideration that is fixed, or in-substance fixed, will be captured as part of our lease components for balance sheet purposes. Furthermore, all variable payments included in lease agreements will be disclosed as variable lease expense when incurred. Generally, variable lease payments are based on usage and common area maintenance. These payments will be included as variable lease expense when recognized.

 

Long-Lived Assets Including Acquired Intangible Assets

 

We assess long-lived assets for potential impairments at the end of each year, or during the year if an event or other circumstance indicates that we may not be able to recover the carrying amount of the asset. In evaluating long-lived assets for impairment, we measure recoverability of these assets by comparing the carrying amounts to the future undiscounted cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If our long-lived assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized equals the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair market value. We base the calculations of the estimated fair value of our long-lived assets on the income approach. For the income approach, we use an internally developed discounted cash flow model that includes, among others, the following assumptions: projections of revenues and expenses and related cash flows based on assumed long-term growth rates and demand trends; expected future investments to grow new units; and estimated discount rates. We base these assumptions on our historical data and experience, industry projections, micro and macro general economic condition projections, and our expectations. We had no long-lived asset impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

 

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. This ASU eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors that have adopted ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which we adopted on January 1, 2020. This ASU also enhances the disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancing and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, the ASU amends the guidance on vintage disclosures to require entities to disclose current period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of ASC 326-20. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted the ASU prospectively on January 1, 2023. This ASU is currently not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (Topic 805). This ASU requires an acquirer in a business combination to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities (deferred revenue) from acquired contracts using the revenue recognition guidance in Topic 606. At the acquisition date, the acquirer applies the revenue model as if it had originated the acquired contracts. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted this ASU prospectively on January 1, 2023. This ASU is currently not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in management’s evaluation pursuant to Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) under the Exchange Act during the period covered by this Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

 

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

We currently are not a party to any legal proceedings, the adverse outcome of which, in management’s opinion, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Regardless of the outcome, any litigation could have an adverse impact on us due to defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

You should carefully consider the information described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on March 16, 2023. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors we previously disclosed in our filings with the SEC, including the Form 10-K. Our operations could also be affected by additional factors that are not presently known to us or by factors that we currently consider immaterial to our business.
