Organization, Business and Basis of Presentation

NOTE A — ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Milestone Scientific Inc. (“Milestone”) or (“our”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware in August 1989. Milestone has developed a proprietary, computer-controlled anesthetic delivery instrument, through the use of The Wand, a single use disposable handpiece. The instrument is marketed in dentistry under the trademark CompuDent, Wand Plus and STA (Single Tooth Anesthesia) and in medicine under the trademark CompuMed. CompuDent is suitable for all dental procedures that require local anesthetic. CompuMed and Wand Plus are suitable for many medical procedures regularly performed in Plastic Surgery, Hair Restoration Surgery, Podiatry, Colorectal Surgery, Dermatology, Orthopedics and a number of other disciplines. The instruments are sold in the United States and in over 47 countries abroad. Milestone’s products are manufactured by a third-party contract manufacturer.

Milestone had incurred significant operating losses since its inception. Milestone had positive cash flows from operating activities at December 31, 2013 of $1,258,736 and a negative cash flow from operating activities at December 31, 2012 of $49,718. At December 31, 2013, Milestone had cash and cash equivalents and a positive working capital of $1,147,198 and $2,344,135, respectively. The working capital increased of $3,199,877 as compared to 2012. The positive change in working capital is due to Milestone’s increase in current assets (cash and accounts receivable) and a substantial reduction in accounts payable. Milestone borrowed $450,000 in 2008 from a shareholder. This note and the related accrued interest was converted to common stock on August 8, 2013. Milestone is actively pursuing the generation of positive cash flows from operating activities through an increase in revenue based upon management’s assessment of present contracts and current negotiations and reductions in operating expenses. As of December 31, 2013, Milestone does not expect to have sufficient cash reserves to meet all of its anticipated obligations for the next twelve months. Milestone may require the need for a higher level of marketing and sales efforts that at present it cannot fund. If Milestone is unable to continue to generate positive cash flows from its operating activities it will need to raise additional capital. There is no assurance that Milestone will be able to achieve positive operating cash flows or that traditional capital can be raised on terms and conditions satisfactory to Milestone, if at all. If positive cash flow cannot continue to be achieved or if additional capital is required and it cannot be raised, then Milestone would be forced to curtail its development activities, reduce marketing expenses for existing dental products or adopt other cost saving measures, any of which might negatively affect Milestone’s operating results.

Milestone’s recurring losses, and the matters discussed above, raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
