1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF
PRESENTATION
Overview
As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the terms
“Company”,
“we”,
“our”,
“us”,
“QuantRx”
or the “Company”
refers to QuantRx Biomedical Corporation, unless context otherwise
requires. QuantRx Biomedical
Corporation was incorporated on December 5, 1986, in the State of
Nevada. Our principal business office is located at 10190 SW 90th
Avenue, Tualatin, Oregon 97062.
We have developed and intend to commercialize our patented miniform
pads (“PADs”)
and PAD based over-the-counter products for the treatment of
hemorrhoids, minor vaginal infection, urinary incontinence, general
catamenial uses and other medical needs. We are also developing and
intend to commercialize genomic diagnostics for the laboratory
market, based on our lateral flow patents. Our platforms include:
inSync®, UniqueTM, and OEM branded
over-the-counter and laboratory testing products based on our core
intellectual property related to our PAD
technology.
The continuation of our operations remains contingent upon the
receipt of additional financing required to execute our business
and operating plan, which is currently focused on the
commercialization of our PAD technology either directly or through
a joint venture or other relationship intended to increase
shareholder value. In the interim, we have nominal operations,
focused principally on maintaining our intellectual property
portfolio and maintaining compliance with the public company
reporting requirements. In order to continue as a going concern, we
will need to raise capital, which may include through the issuance
of debt and/or equity securities. No assurances can be given that
we will be able to obtain additional financing under terms
favorable to us, if at all, or otherwise successfully develop a
business and operating plan or enter into an alternative
relationship to commercialize our PAD technology.
Our principal business line consists of over-the-counter
commercialization of our InSync feminine hygienic interlabial pad,
the Unique® Miniform for hemorrhoid application, and other
treated miniforms (the “OTC
Business”), as well as
maintaining established and continuing licensing relationships
related to these products. We also own certain diagnostic testing
technology (the “Diagnostic
Business” and with the
OTC Business, the “Businesses”) that is based on our lateral flow
patents. Management believes this corporate structure permits us to
more efficiently explore options to maximize the value of our
products and intellectual property portfolio, with the objective of
maximizing the value of the Businesses for the benefit of the
Company and our shareholders.
Our current focus is to obtain additional working capital necessary
to continue as a going concern, and to develop a longer term
financing and operating plan to: (i) commercialize our
over-the-counter products either directly or through joint
ventures, mergers or similar transactions intended to capitalize on
potential commercial opportunities; (ii) contract manufacturing of
our over-the-counter products to third parties while maintaining
control over the manufacturing process; (iii) maintain our
intellectual property portfolio with respect to patents and
licenses pertaining to both the OTC Business and the Diagnostics
Business; and (iv) maximize the value of our investments in
non-core assets. As a result of our current financial
condition, however, our efforts in the short-term will be focused
on obtaining financing necessary to maintain the Company as a going
concern.
We follow the accounting guidance outlined in the Financial
Accounting Standards Board Codification guidelines. The
accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted principles for
interim financial information and with the items under Regulation
S-X required by the instructions to Form 10-Q. They may not include
all information and footnotes required by United States Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements.
However, except as disclosed herein, there have been no material
changes in the information disclosed in the notes to the financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in the
Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2021. The interim
unaudited financial statements presented herein should be read in
conjunction with those financial statements included in the Form
10-K. In the opinion of Management, all adjustments considered
necessary for a fair presentation, which unless otherwise disclosed
herein, consisting primarily of normal recurring adjustments, have
been made. Operating results for the three months ended March 31,
2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending December 31,
2020.
Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These
reclassifications had no effect on previously reported losses,
total assets or stockholders’ equity.
2. MANAGEMENT STATEMENT REGARDING GOING CONCERN
We currently are not generating revenue from operations, and do not
anticipate generating meaningful revenue from operations or
otherwise in the short-term. We have historically financed our
operations primarily through issuances of equity and the proceeds
from the issuance of promissory notes. In the past, we also
provided for our cash needs by issuing Common Stock, options and
warrants for certain operating costs, including consulting and
professional fees, as well as divesting its minority equity
interests and equity-linked investments. In addition, in the fiscal
year ended 2018, we received cash payments as consideration for the
sale and transfer of the Purchased Assets to
Preprogen.
Our history of operating losses, limited cash resources and
the absence of an operating plan necessary to capitalize on our
assets raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue
as a going concern absent a strengthening of our cash
position. Management is currently pursuing various funding
options, including seeking debt or equity financing, licensing
opportunities and the sale of certain investment holdings, as well
as a strategic, merger or other transaction to obtain additional
funding to continue the development of, and to successfully
commercialize, our products. There can be no assurance that
the Company will be successful in its efforts. Should we be
unable to obtain adequate financing or generate sufficient revenue
in the future, the Company’s business, result of operations,
liquidity and financial condition would be materially and adversely
harmed, and we will be unable to continue as a going
concern.
There can be no assurance that, assuming we are able to
strengthen its cash position, we will achieve sufficient revenue or
profitable operations to continue as a going concern.
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is
presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial
statements. The financial statements and notes are representations
of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their
integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to
GAAP and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the
financial statements.
Accounting for Share-Based Payments. The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic
718, which establishes the accounting for transactions in which an
entity exchanges equity securities for services and requires
companies to expense the estimated fair value of these awards over
the requisite service period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes
option pricing model in determining fair value. Accordingly,
compensation cost has been recognized using the fair value method
and expected term accrual requirements as prescribed. During
the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had no
stock compensation expense.
In June 2018, the FASB issued an accounting pronouncement
(FASB ASU 2018-07) to expand the scope of ASC Topic 718,
Compensation - Stock Compensation, to include share-based payment
transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees.
The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and for interim
periods within those fiscal years, beginning after
December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted (for
“emerging growth company” beginning after
December 15, 2019). The Company has adopted this standard
effective from January 1, 2020 and the adoption of this
standard did not have any significant impact on the unaudited
condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
In the case of modifications, the Black-Scholes model is used to
value modified warrants on the modification date by applying the
revised assumptions. The difference between the fair value of the
warrants prior to the modification and after the modification
determines the incremental value. In the past, the Company has
modified warrants in connection with the issuance of certain notes
and note extensions. These modified warrants were originally issued
in connection with previous private placement investments. In the
case of debt issuances, the warrants were accounted for as original
issuance discount based on their relative fair values. When
modified in connection with a note issuance, the Company recognizes
the incremental value as a part of the debt discount calculation,
using its relative fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 470-20,
“Debt
with Conversion and Other Options”. When modified in connection with note
extensions, the Company recognized the incremental value as prepaid
interest, which is expensed over the term of the
extension.
The fair value of each share-based payment is estimated on the
measurement date using the Black-Scholes model with the following
assumptions, which are determined at the beginning of each year and
utilized in all calculations for that year. During the three months
ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company did not make any
Black-Scholes model assumptions, as no share-based payments were
made during those periods.
Risk-Free Interest Rate. The interest rate used is based on the yield
of a U.S. Treasury security as of the beginning of the
year.
Expected Volatility. The
Company calculates the expected volatility based on historical
volatility of monthly stock prices over a three-year
period.
Dividend Yield. The
Company has never paid cash dividends, and does not currently
intend to pay cash dividends, and thus has assumed a 0% dividend
yield.
Expected Term. For
options, the Company has no history of employee exercise patterns.
Therefore, the Company uses the option term as the expected term.
For warrants, the Company uses the actual term of the
warrant.
Pre-Vesting Forfeitures. Estimates of pre-vesting option forfeitures
are based on Company experience. The Company will adjust its
estimate of forfeitures over the requisite service period based on
the extent to which actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to
differ, from such estimates. Changes in estimated forfeitures will
be recognized through a cumulative catch-up adjustment in the
period of change and will also impact the amount of compensation
expense to be recognized in future periods.
Earnings per Share. The
Company computes net income (loss) per common share in accordance
with ASC Topic 260. Net income (loss) per share is based upon the
weighted average number of outstanding common shares and the
dilutive effect of common share equivalents, such as options and
warrants to purchase common stock, convertible preferred stock and
convertible notes, if applicable, that are outstanding each
year. Diluted earnings per
share, if presented, would include the dilution that would occur
upon the exercise or conversion of all potentially dilutive
securities into common stock using the “treasury stock”
and/or “if converted” methods as
applicable.
For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and the three months
ended March 31, 2020, basic and
diluted earnings per share were the same at the reporting dates of
the accompanying financial statements, as including common stock
equivalents in the calculation of diluted earnings per share would
have been antidilutive.
As of March 31, 2021, the Company has no outstanding options, as
all options expired in early 2020. As of March 31, 2021, the
Company had outstanding warrants exercisable for 15,000,000 shares
of its common stock $0.01 par value (“Common
Stock”), and outstanding
preferred stock, $0.01 par value (“Preferred
Stock”) convertible into
6,196,893 shares of its Common Stock, which options, warrants and
Preferred Stock were deemed to be antidilutive for the three months
ended March 31, 2021. At March 31, 2021, the Company had reserved
for issuance to certain investors 860,000 shares of its Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock, convertible into 860,000 shares of its
Common Stock. As of March 31, 2020, the Company has estimated and
reserved for issuance approximately 20.0 million shares of Common
Stock for a future conversion of its issued and outstanding
Convertible Notes Payable.
As of March 31, 2020, the Company had outstanding options
exercisable for 2,300,000 shares of its Common Stock, outstanding
warrants exercisable for 15,000,000 shares of its Common Stock, and
outstanding Preferred Stock convertible into 6,196,893 shares of
its Common Stock, which options, warrants and Preferred Stock were
deemed to be antidilutive for the three months ended March 31,
2020. At March 31, 2020, the Company had reserved for issuance to
certain investors 860,000 shares of its Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock, convertible into 860,000 shares of its Common
Stock. As of March 31, 2020, the Company has estimated and reserved
for issuance approximately 20.0 million shares of Common Stock for
a future conversion of its issued and outstanding Convertible Notes
Payable.
Fair Value. The
Company has adopted ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements
and Disclosures” for
both financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities. The
Company has not elected the fair value option for any of its assets
or liabilities.
Use of Estimates. The
accompanying financial statements are prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America, and include certain estimates and assumptions, which
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date
of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue
and expense during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual
results may differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications. Prior period
financial statement amounts have been reclassified to conform to
current period presentation. The reclassifications have no effect
on net loss or earnings per share.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements.
Management has considered all recent accounting pronouncements in
the current period and identified no pronouncements that would have
an impact on our financial statements.
4. INVESTMENTS
In December 2018, the Company acquired a 15% interest in Preprogen
LLC pursuant to the Preprogen Transaction. On October
8, 2018, the Preprogen Agreement was amended to provide for, among
other things, the release of funds held in escrow related to the
manufacture of the miniform pads (the “Preprogen Amendment”), which
resulted in both parties receiving $200,583 in cash. As
consideration for the Preprogen Amendment, the Company agreed to
pay Preprogen a royalty of 5% from the sale of all over-the-counter
miniform products; provided,
however, that such royalty payments shall terminate when
Preprogen has received $200,000 in aggregate consideration from the
royalties paid by us, and that we shall be entitled to offset such
royalty payments due and payable to Preprogen by amounts equal to
certain other payments otherwise due and payable to us by Preprogen
pursuant to the terms of the Preprogen Agreement. At December 31,
2019, we had fully impaired our investment in
Preprogen.
