ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

Organization.  Non-Invasive Monitoring Systems, Inc., a Florida corporation (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company” or “NIMS”), began business as a medical diagnostic monitoring company to develop computer-aided continuous monitoring devices to detect abnormal respiratory and cardiac events using sensors on the human body’s surface. It has ceased to operate in this market and has licensed the rights to its technology. The Company is now focused on developing and marketing its Exer-Rest^® line of acceleration therapeutic platforms based upon unique, patented whole body periodic acceleration (“WBPA”) technology. The Exer-Rest line of acceleration therapeutic platforms currently includes the Exer-Rest AT, AT3800 and AT4700 models.

Business.  The Company is developing and marketing its Exer-Rest^® line of acceleration therapeutic platforms based upon unique, patented whole body periodic acceleration (“WBPA”) technology. The Exer-Rest line of acceleration therapeutic platforms currently includes the Exer-Rest AT, AT3800 and AT4700 models.

The Company received revenue from royalties on sales of diagnostic monitoring hardware and software by SensorMedics and from VivoMetrics in prior years. SensorMedics indicated they will discontinue licensed product sales after current inventory is depleted and, therefore, the royalty revenue from SensorMedics is expected to be minimal to none. VivoMetrics ceased operations in July 2009 and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in October 2009.  Pursuant to VivoMetrics’ approved bankruptcy plan of reorganization, our license with VivoMetrics was assigned to another company; however, there can be no assurance as to the future amount of royalty revenue, if any, that we may derive from this license or from our existing license with SensorMedics.  In fiscal year 2009, NIMS began commercial sales of its third generation Exer-Rest therapeutic platforms.

During the calendar years 2005to 2007, the Company designed, developed and manufactured the first Exer-Rest platform (now the Exer-Rest AT), a second generation acceleration therapeutics platform, and updated its operations to promote the Exer-Rest AT overseas as an aid to improve circulation and joint mobility and to relieve minor aches and pains.

The Company has developed a third generation of Exer-Rest acceleration therapeutic platforms (designated the Exer-Rest AT3800 and the Exer-Rest AT4700) that has been manufactured by Sing Lin Technologies Co. Ltd. (“Sing Lin”) based in Taichung, Taiwan (see Note 10).

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared and presented on a basis assuming it will continue as a going concern. As reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had net losses of $307,000 and $330,000 for the nine month periods ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and has experienced cash outflows from operating activities. The Company also has an accumulated deficit of $24.6 million as of April 30, 2015, and has potential purchase obligations at April 30, 2015(see note 10). The Company had $81,000 of cash at April 30, 2015and negative working capital of approximately $1,893,000. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company is continuing its business activities without any significant revenues from product sales. Absent any significant revenues from product sales, the Company is seeking debt or equity financing or a strategic collaboration.  There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in this regard, and, if not successful, that it will be able to continue its business activities. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary from the outcome of this uncertainty.
