Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023

($ United States)

(Unaudited)

 

 

1.       Basis of presentation, nature of operations and going concern

 

ALR Technologies SG Ltd. (the “Company” or “ALRT” or “ALR Singapore”) was originally incorporated under the Companies Act of Singapore on May 16, 2020, as a wholly owned subsidiary of ALR Technologies Inc. (“ALR Nevada”). Upon completion of the Redomicile Merger (as defined herein), the Company became the parent of ALR Nevada.

 

ALR Nevada was incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada on March 24, 1987 as Mo Betta Corp. In December 1998, ALR Nevada’s common stock began trading on the Bulletin Board operated by the National Association of Securities Dealers Inc. under the symbol “MBET.” On December 28, 1998, it changed its name from Mo Betta Corp. to ALR Technologies Inc., and its trading symbol was changed to “ALRT.”

 

On June 9, 2021, the Company incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary, Canada Diabetes Solution Centre, Inc. (“ALR Canada”), under the Business Corporations Act of Alberta.

 

Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated May 17, 2022 (the “Redomicile Merger Agreement”), by and among ALR Singapore, ALR Nevada and ALRT Delaware, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ALR Delaware”), ALR Delaware, a wholly owned subsidiary of ALR Singapore, merged with and into ALR Nevada, with ALR Nevada continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly owned subsidiary of ALR Singapore (the “Redomicile Merger”).

 

On November 7, 2022, the Company completed the Redomicile Merger resulting in ALR Nevada becoming the wholly owned subsidiary of ALR Singapore. On November 10, 2022, ALR Nevada filed a Form 15 resulting in it terminating its duty to file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a result of the completion of the Redomicile Merger to which ALR Singapore acquired all of the issuance and outstanding shares of ALR Nevada.

 

The Company has developed its “Diabetes Solution”, which is a comprehensive approach to diabetes care for human health consisting of data collection, predictive A1C, insulin dosage adjustment suggestions, performance tracking, remote monitoring and diabetes test supplies. The Company has also developed an iteration of the Diabetes Solution for the animal health market, under the brand “GluCurve Pet CGM”.

1.       Basis of presentation, nature of operations and going concern (continued)

 

These condensed interim consolidated statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed in our Annual Report on Form 20-F. In the opinion of the Company’s management, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at June 30, 2023 and the results of its operations for the six months then ended. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year to end December 31, 2023. The 2022 year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP.

 

The condensed interim consolidated statements are prepared in U.S. dollars and on a going concern basis, which presumes the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of operations for the foreseeable future. Several adverse conditions cast substantial doubt on the validity of this assumption. The Company incurred a significant loss over the six months ended June 30, 2023, of $3,647,650. As of June 30, 2023, the Company is unable to self-finance its operations, has a working capital deficit of $27,735,264, accumulated deficit of $116,281,536, limited resources, no source of operating cash flow and no assurance that sufficient funding will be available to conduct continued commercialization and product development activities. Even if the Company is able to finance its required commercialization or product development activities, there is no assurance the Company’s current projects will become commercially viable or profitable. The Company has debts comprised of accounts payable and accrued liabilities, interest payable, lines of credit and promissory notes payable totaling $28,255,826 currently due, due on demand or considered delinquent. There is no assurance that the Company will not face additional legal action from creditors regarding delinquent accounts payable, promissory notes payable and interest payable. Any one or a combination of these above conditions could result in the failure of the business and cause the Company to cease operations.

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support of its creditors and its ability to obtain financing to fund working capital and overhead requirements, fund the development of the Company’s product line, and ultimately, the Company’s ability to achieve profitable operations and repay overdue obligations. Management has obtained short-term financing from related parties through line of credit facilities with available borrowing in principal up to $14,300,000. As of June 30, 2023, the total principal balance outstanding was $13,676,516. The resolution of whether the Company is able to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the realization of management’s plans. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise any additional debt or equity capital from the sources described above or that the lenders in the line of credit arrangements will maintain the availability of borrowing from the line. If management is unsuccessful in obtaining short-term financing or achieving long-term profitable operations, the Company will be required to cease operations.

1.       Basis of presentation, nature of operations and going concern (continued)

 

A significant portion of the Company’s debt is either due on demand or is in default, while continuing to accrue interest at its stated rate. The Company will seek to obtain creditors’ consents to delay repayment of the outstanding promissory notes payable and related interest thereto, until it is able to replace this financing with funds generated by operations, recapitalization with replacement debt or from equity financings through private placements. While some of the Company’s creditors have agreed to extend repayment deadlines in the past, there is no assurance that they will continue to do so in the future. In the past, creditors have successfully commenced legal action against the Company to recover debts outstanding. In those instances, the Company was able to obtain financing from related parties to cover the verdict or settlement; however, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain the same financing in the future. If the Company is unsuccessful in obtaining financing to cover any potential verdicts or settlements, the Company will be required to cease operations.

 

The Company’s activities will necessitate significant uses of working capital beyond 2023. Additionally, the Company’s capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the success of the Company’s continued product development and distribution efforts. The Company plans to continue financing its operations with the lines of credit it has available and other sources of financing.

 

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and the classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Such adjustments could be material.

 

2.       Significant accounting policies

 

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed in our Annual Report on Form 20-F. In the opinion of the Company’s management, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at June 30, 2023 and the results of its operations for the six months then ended. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year to end December 31, 2023. The 2022 year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP.

 

The preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information, which requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. These judgments, estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances. While management believes the estimates to be reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates and could impact future results of operations and cash flows.

2.       Significant accounting policies (continued)

 

Basis of consolidation

 

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, ALR Nevada and ALR Canada. The Canadian subsidiary is currently inactive. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

 

Foreign currency translation

 

The presentation currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar.

 

The functional currency of each of the parent company and its subsidiaries is measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which that entity operates. Commencing January 1, 2023, the functional currency of the Company changed from the Singapore dollar (“SGD”) to the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of ALR Nevada remains the U.S. dollar and for ALR Canada, the Canadian dollar.

 

3.       Accounts payable and accrued liabilities

 

A summary of the accounts payable and accrued liabilities is as follows:

 

  

June 30,

2023

 

December 31,

2022

Accounts payable  $1,069,855   $1,054,285 
Accrued liabilities   238,035    288,587 
   $1,307,890   $1,342,872 

 

4.       Deferred revenue

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company collected proceeds of $160,000 in relation to the delivery of GluCurve Pet CGM units in December 2022. A portion of the CGM hardware supplied to the Company did not meet the GluCurve Pet CGM specifications for the end users. As at June 30, 2023, the proceeds collected are recorded as deferred revenue. In December 2023 the Company agreed to refund or provide a credit towards the future purchase of the GluCurve Pet CGM units, aggregating $133,120. The balance of proceeds received of $26,880 will be recorded as revenues.

 

The Company is working with its supplier on a warranty claim for those CGM hardware units that did not meet specifications. To date, the Company has recovered $35,100 from the supplier (included in accounts receivable as at June 30, 2023 and received in September 2023) and have claims pending for a further $41,100 (included in accounts receivable), which the Company is uncertain as to the timing of collection.

5.       Interest, advances and promissory notes payable and loan payable (continued)

 

d)       Loan payable

 

On September 6, 2022, ALR Singapore entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Kan Wan Chen Pte. Ltd. (“KWC”) whereby ALR Singapore received advances of SGD$2,500,000 from KWC. The loan will mature on March 31, 2024. The loan is secured by a general security interest in the assets of the Company. Any principal owing on maturity will be repaid concurrent with an additional 20% loan bonus, in lieu of any interest or other amounts. Prior to maturity, each unit of the GluCurve Pet CGM sold will result in payment, upon receipt of the proceeds of the sale, to KWC as follows (i) $5 payback of principal owing to KWC and (ii) $5 royalty payment representing consideration for borrowing the principal from KWC. ALR Singapore may redeem the principal at any time prior to the launch of the second generation GluCurve Pet CGM. Any principal repaid prior to this launch will not be subject to the royalty payments.

 

A director and Vice President (“VP”) of ALR Singapore is a director and significant shareholder of KWC, therefore KWC is a related party to the Company. The Company assumed the minimum amount payable at maturity will be SGD$3,000,000, which will equal to 120% of the principal amount outstanding of SGD$2,500,000 ($1,779,250).

 

The fair value measured upon recognition of the loan was determined by using a discounted cash flow analysis. To determine the discounted cash flow, the Company had to determine the discount rate to apply to record the loan at fair value at initial recognition. The discount rate selected at initial recognition has a significant impact on the amount recorded for the initial fair value of the loan. Since KWC is a related party, the Company considered the interest rates of similar long-term debt arrangements with similar terms to determine if the effective interest rate under the loan agreement was comparable to market interest rates. At the time the loan agreement was executed, the Company was in advanced negotiations for the distribution of the GluCurve Pet CGM and the manufacturing of the CGM systems incorporated therein, but they had not entered into any definitive agreements until November 2022.

 

The effective interest of the loan with the 20% loan bonus was calculated as 13%. Since GluCurve had not launched upon recognition of the loan and no definitive agreements were in place, the Company excluded the sale of GluCurve Pet CGM units from the cost of borrowing. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company had not recognized revenue from the sale of GluCurve Pet CGM units and was unable to determine anticipated level of sales. As a result, the Company excluded the sale of GluCurve Pet CGM units from the cost of borrowing as at June 30, 2023.

d)       Loan payable (continued)

 

The Company determined that the market interest rate on a similar loan would be 18% based on market yield curves. Since the effective interest rate of the loan is below market rates, the Company is deemed to have received a benefit under the loan agreement. Using the market rate, the Company estimated the fair value of the loan received to be SGD$2,339,944 ($1,665,338). The difference between the legal liability of SGD$2,500,000 and the carrying value of SGD$2,339,944, totaling SGD$160,056 ($113,912) has been recorded to additional paid-in capital as a shareholder contribution made by KWC during the year ended December 31, 2022.

 

On June 20, 2023, the Company and KWC agreed to amend the terms of the KWC Loan Agreement as follows:

·The loan will mature on September 30, 2024 (note 12(a));
·No repayments are required by the Company until maturity;
·Interest will accrue at a rate of Singapore prime plus 2% (note 12(a)) of the principal amount borrowed, effective from January 1, 2023. Interest will be payable on maturity;
·Upon maturity and repayment of the principal and accrued interest, the Company will pay KWC a commercialization success fee equal to SGD$500,000;
·The royalty repayment structure under the Loan Agreement be waived and no payments, principal, interest or otherwise are due against any sales of the Company, including any sales generated to date; and
·The Company may repay the loan in whole at any time, or in part, from time to time, at its discretion, without penalty; however, the full commercialization success fee will be payable, irrespective of the amount of interest accrued, or when the loan principal is repaid.

 

The change to the terms of the Loan Agreement was determined to be a modification of the debt; therefore, no gain or loss was recognized and instead a new effective interest rate was established based on the carrying value of the debt and the revised cash flows.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded foreign exchange adjustment of $19,140 to loan payable. The Company recognized accreted interest expense of $22,634 (SGD$30,097). The Company also recognized borrowing costs (recorded in interest expense) of $70,704 (SGD$94,020) and accrued interest (recorded in interest expense) of $64,934 (SGD$86,781) (note 9).

As used in this quarterly report, the terms “we”, “us”, “our”, the “Company” and “ALRT” mean ALR Technologies SG Ltd., unless otherwise indicated.

 

Overview

 

ALRT is a data management company that developed a comprehensive approach to diabetes care that includes: (i) a Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) cleared and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 compliant diabetes management system (as previously defined, the “Diabetes Solution”) that collects data directly from blood glucose meters (and which was subsequently modified to integrate with continuous glucose monitoring (“CGM”) devices), (ii) a patent pending Predictive A1C algorithm to track treatment success between lab reports, and (iii) an FDA-cleared Insulin Dosing Adjustment program. From this technology portfolio, the Company has developed the Diabetes Solution product for human health, and the GluCurve Pet CGM product, a modified version of the Diabetes Solution, for animal health (“GluCurve Pet CGM”).

 

The GluCurve Pet CGM is a solution to assist veterinarians to better determine the efficacy of insulin treatments and to help identify the appropriate dose and frequency of administration for companion animals, thereby delivering the same optimization of diabetic drug therapies to pets as to humans. The GluCurve Pet CGM is available for pre-order in Canada. The Company is working with its supplier of CGM hardware to have sufficient quantity available to distribute to launch the next generation version of the GluCurve Pet CGM in the United States through its distributor.

b)Modified 108,200,000 options previously granted to a number of advisors, employees and independent contractors by extending the expiry dates to June 30, 2028 and modified vesting terms for some of the options.

 

On July 31, 2023, the Company and KWC agreed to further amend the terms of the KWC Loan Agreement as follows:

·The loan will mature on December 31, 2024 instead of September 30, 2024.
·Interest will accrue at a rate of Singapore prime plus 1% (instead of 2%) of the principal amount borrowed, effective from January 1, 2023. Interest will be payable on maturity.

 

On October 19, 2023, the Company granted incentive compensation to certain key personnel (the “KP”) whereby the Company will issue a cashless loan (the “KP Loans”) to KP in order for KP to exercise an aggregate 36,000,000 stock options to bring each KP’s aggregate holdings to 25,000,000 ordinary shares. Each of the KP Loans will have the following terms and conditions:

i.KP shall make repayments of $15,000 per month commencing the earlier:
1)GluCurve reaching monthly sales of 50,000 units, or
2)September 30, 2024;
ii.The repayments will be in the form of an offset against monthly compensation paid to KP;
iii.In addition to the monthly installments, the loan m ay be repaid, in full or in part, in as many additional installments that the KP wishes to make without penalty;
iv.The loan will not bear interest;
v.The loan will be secured by the underlying shares of the Company issued to KP which shall be valued as the higher of:
a)The fair value based on a quoted price or market price,
b)The weighted average exercise of the ordinary shares acquired with the loan;

At any time KP may surrender the shares to the Company, in the quantity required based on their value hereunder, to extinguish the remaining amount of the loan;

vi.Each repayment by KP will release from security the number of shares of the Company on the basis of the weighted average exercise under the arrangement; and
vii.Should the services agreements between the Company and KP terminate for any reason, the loan amount remaining will be due within five business days, except should KP die, then the amount will be repayable by their estate within 90 days, including through the surrender of the underlying ALRT shares.

 

33

 

Related to the incentive compensation, the Company modified 32,500,000 stock options previously granted to KP by modifying the exercise prices to $0.03 per share. The vesting terms of 10,000,000 options were also modified to be fully vested at October 19, 2023.

 

Additional Financing

 

On May 24, 2023, the Company collected subscriptions of SGD$1,000,000 for future issuance of 20,000,000 ordinary shares at a price of SGD$0.05 per share. On June 20, 2023, the Company issued 20,000,000 ordinary shares at a price of $0.037 per share for an aggregate $744,655.

 

On June 13, 2023, the Company issued 5,000,000 ordinary shares to a contractor pursuant to the exercise of stock options at a price of $0.015 per share, which were applied against accounts payable for an aggregate $75,000.

Our net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was 26% ($755,000) higher than the net loss at June 30, 2022. We highlight the following section “Loss before other items and share-based compensation”.

Loss before Other Items and Share-based Compensation

 

Loss before other items and share-based compensation was $268,000 (21%) lower during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. We highlight that loss before other items and share-based compensation is a “non-GAAP financial measure”. This measure is calculated by removing those items from the net loss presented on our condensed interim consolidated statements of operations. This measure does not have a standardized meaning under U.S. GAAP. Management uses this measure internally to evaluate its results of operations, as it removes the impact of share-based compensation, non-operational losses and interest accretion.

Loss Before Other Items and Share-based Compensation  $997,000    1,264,000    (267,000)   (21)

 

The loss before other items and share-based compensation for the six months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $268,000 primarily due to decreased professional fees related to the Redomicile Merger incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

 

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative costs incurred consist of salaries and consulting fees of management personnel, share-based compensation for incentive options vested to management personnel, travel and trade show costs, rent of the Company’s corporate office, website development costs and general costs incurred through day-to-day operations.

 

During the period, the Company had decreased selling, general and administrative operating expenses, as compared to the same period in 2022. The selling, general and administrative expenses, excluding share-based compensation, decreased by $88,000 during 2023, as compared to 2022, primarily driven by a decrease in salaries, payroll expenses and consulting fees paid to personnel related to the termination of certain consulting contracts, offset by an increase in travel expenses and fees paid related to commercialization plans for our GluCurve Pet CGM product in the current period.

 

The components of selling, general and administrative expenses and the changes therein can be seen as follows:

Product development costs

Substantially all of the product development costs incurred related to (i) services provided by our contractors; (ii) expenses incurred for product development, and (iii) share-based compensation expense related to options granted and vested to our development team.

Total  $935,000   $250,000   $685,000 

 

The increase in product development costs during the current period is related to an increase in personnel, as compared to the same period in the prior year, the grant of and modification of stock options outstanding to the technical team of the Company for long-term incentive compensation, and amounts incurred to procure and test CGM hardware.

 

Professional fees

Professional fees incurred consists of consulting and advisory fees of certain professionals retained, audit fees, tax consultant fees, recruiter fees, legal fees and share-based compensation for options vested to professionals. Excluding the difference in net loss attributed to the vesting of stock options, professional fees decreased by $254,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decreases in professional fees were mainly due to decrease in accounting and legal fees in the current period compared to the comparative period of the prior year, as the Redomicile Merger Transaction closed in Q4 2022.

Interest on Promissory Notes

There were no changes in the amount of promissory notes outstanding as at June 30, 2023 compared to 2022. The Company received an advance from a shareholder for SGD$270,000 (US$200,000), with a fixed interest amount of SGD$8,000, during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The interest incurred on promissory notes was consistent during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

Imputed Interest

During the periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we had certain zero interest promissory notes and accounts payable in excess of one year. Pursuant to our accounting policy, these zero interest amounts are considered to be financing items in nature and are assigned a deemed interest rate (1% per month). The interest incurred on these is expensed as imputed interest, and instead of increasing our liabilities, it is allocated to equity under the financial statement line item “additional paid-in capital”. The change from the prior period is related to the discussion included under “Interest on Promissory Notes” above.

 

Imputed Interest and Borrowing Costs on Loan Payable

During the 2022 fiscal year, we entered into the KWC Loan Agreement whereby we received proceeds of SGD$2,500,000. Under the terms of the KWC Loan Agreement, we may repay the principal owing thereunder at any time prior to the launch of our next generation GluCurve Pet CGM product, in whole or in part, at our option, with a payment equal to 120% of such principal amount owing. Any such principal amounts repaid prior to the launch of our second generation GluCurve Pet CGM product will not be subject to the royalty payment described herein. Subject to the foregoing, we are obligated to pay KWC $10 from the sale of each unit of our GluCurve Pet CGM sensors sold to our distributor, which will be accounted for as follows: (i) $5 as a reduction in the principal balance owing to KWC, and (ii) $5 as a royalty payment to compensate KWC for the cost of the principal advances. The loan is scheduled to mature on March 31, 2024, at which time, an amount equal to 120% of the principal then outstanding will be due and payable to KWC.

 

On June 20, 2023, the KWC Loan Agreement was amended as follows: (i) the loan will mature on September 30, 2024, (ii) no repayments are required by the Company until maturity, (iii) interest will accrue at a rate of Singapore prime plus 2% of the principal amount borrowed, effective from January 1, 2023; interest will be payable on maturity, (iv) upon maturity and repayment of the principal and accrued interest, the Company will pay KWC a commercialization success fee equal to SGD$500,000, (v) the royalty repayment structure under the Loan Agreement will be waived and no payments, principal, interest or otherwise are due against any sales of the Company, including any sales generated to date, and (vi) the Company may repay the loan in whole at any time, or in part, from time to time, at its discretion, without penalty; however, the full commercialization success fee will be payable, irrespective of the amount of interest accrued, or when the loan principal is repaid.

37

 

 

The change to the terms of the Loan Agreement was determined to be a modification of the debt; therefore, no gain or loss was recognized and instead a new effective interest rate was established based on the carrying value of the debt and the revised cash flows.

 

On July 31, 2023, the Company and KWC agreed to further amend the terms of the KWC Loan Agreement as follows: (i) the loan will mature on December 31, 2024 instead of September 30, 2024, and (ii) interest will accrue at a rate of Singapore prime plus 1% (instead of 2%) of the principal amount borrowed, effective from January 1, 2023. Interest will be payable on maturity.

 

An Officer and Director of ALRT is a director and significant shareholder of KWC, therefore KWC is a related party to the Company. We recognized imputed interest and borrowing costs on the KWC Loan Agreement, as we determined the loan was issued at below market rates of interest.

 

The fair value measured upon recognition of the loan was determined by using a discounted cash flow analysis. To determine the discounted cash flow, we had to determine the discount rate to apply to record the loan at fair value at initial recognition. The discount rate selected at initial recognition has a significant impact on the amount recorded for the initial fair value of the loan. Since KWC is a related party, we considered the interest rates of similar long-term debt arrangements with similar terms to determine if the effective interest rate under the KWC Loan Agreement was not comparable to market interest rates. At the time the Loan Agreement was executed, we were in advanced negotiations for the distribution of our GluCurve Pet CGM product and the manufacturing of the CGM systems incorporated therein, but we had not entered into any definitive agreements prior to entering into the KWC Loan Agreement.

 

The effective interest of the loan with the 20% loan bonus was calculated as 13%. Since our GluCurve Pet CGM product had not launched upon recognition of the loan under the KWC Loan Agreement and no definitive agreements were in place, we excluded the sale of our GluCurve Pet CGM units from the cost of borrowing.

 

We determined that the market interest rate would be 18% based on market yield curves. Since the effective interest rate of the loan is below the market rate, we are deemed to have received a benefit under the KWC Loan Agreement. The difference between the legal liability of SGD$2,500,000 and the carrying value of SGD$2,340,000, totaling SGD$160,000 ($114,000) has been recorded to additional paid-in capital as a shareholder contribution made by KWC. During the period ended June 30 2023, we recognized imputed interest expenses by recording $23,000 (2022 - $Nil) to interest expense. During the period ended June 30 2023, we also recognized borrowing costs and accrued interest expenses by recording $71,000 (2022 - $Nil) and $65,000 (2022 - $Nil), respectively, to interest expense.

We have a severe working capital deficiency. We do not have the ability to service our current liabilities for the next 12 months and are reliant on our line of credit facilities to meet our ongoing operations. Until we have revenue-producing activities that exceed our operating requirements, we will be unable to service our current liabilities and the working capital deficit will continue to increase. As of the date of this Report, we have commenced commercial revenue-generating activities, but have yet to recognize any revenue. We expect to generate revenues in 2024 through the sale of our GluCurve Pet CGM product. There is substantial doubt about our ability to repay our current liabilities in the near term or any time in the future, which could ultimately lead to business failure.

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities consists of trade payables and accrued liabilities of the Company with accounts payable totaling approximately $1,070,000 and accrued liabilities totaling approximately $238,000. Approximately $600,000 of accounts payable is more than one year old with the majority of these being more than ten years old.

 

The fluctuations in accounts payable occurred in the regular course of business.

 

Deferred revenue

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company collected proceeds of $160,000 in relation to the delivery of GluCurve Pet CGM units in December 2022. A portion of the CGM hardware supplied to the Company did not meet the GluCurve Pet CGM specifications for the end users. As at June 30, 2023, the proceeds collected are recorded as deferred revenue, as the Company and its customer were evaluating the extent of the hardware deficiencies. In December 2023 the Company agreed to refund or provide a credit towards the future purchase of the GluCurve Pet CGM units, aggregating approximately $133,000. The balance of proceeds received of approximately $27,000 will be recorded as revenues.

 

The Company is working with its supplier on a warranty claim for those CGM hardware units that did not meet specifications. To date, the Company recovered $35,100 from the supplier (included in accounts receivable as at June 30, 2023 and received in September 2023) and have claims pending for a further $41,100 (included in accounts receivable), which the Company is uncertain as to the timing of collection.

 

Promissory notes and promissory notes payable to related parties

As at June 30, 2023, we had promissory notes with 20 individuals or corporations that related to historical amounts borrowed. With the exception of the SGD$340,000 advanced for promissory notes and $50,000 and SGD$500,000 received for promissory notes from related parties during the year ended December 31, 2022, the principal of which was all repaid in August 2022, there has been no new activity for several years. All of the promissory notes are past due and continue to accrue interest at their respective legal rates of interest (mostly 1% per month).

39

 

 

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company received an advance from two shareholders for SGD$340,000 ($244,000), with a fixed interest amount of $10,000, due August 31, 2022. The principal amount of SGD$150,000 was repaid to one lender in July 2022 and the remaining balance of SGD$190,000 was repaid in August 2022. The Company also received advances from two related parties for $50,000, with a fixed interest amount of $4,000, due August 31, 2022. The principal amount of $50,000 was repaid in August 2022. In July 2022, the Company received an advance from a related party for SGD$500,000 ($355,350), with interest of $150 per day, due August 31, 2022. The principal amount of SGD$500,000 was repaid in July 2022.

 

Interest payable

Interest payable relates to the unpaid interest expense incurred on the promissory notes and promissory notes to related parties. The change from December 31, 2022 to June 30, 2023 relates to $266,000 of accrued interest incurred on promissory notes at their stated rates of interest and $24,000 relates to interest retired through issuance of ordinary shares.

 

All of the underlying promissory notes, except for the promissory notes received during fiscal 2022, and related interest payable are overdue.

 

Lines of credit

As of June 30, 2023, total lines of credit payable was $16,788,000 (December 31, 2022 - $15,828,000), an increase of $960,000. We have borrowed total lines of credit principal of $13,677,000 (December 31, 2022 - $13,416,000). During the June 30, 2023 period, we incurred interest expense of $813,000 (2022 - $778,000).

 

The increase in the lines of credit payable of $960,000 is attributable to borrowings of:

·$260,000 to fund our operations, product development activities, overhead, and its sales and marketing program;
·$813,000 of unpaid interest incurred on the principal of the borrowed amounts; and
·$113,000 of interest repayment toward interest payable.

Line of Credit from Ms. Christine Kan

 

We obtained a line of credit of $1,000,000 from Ms. Christine Kan in March 2010. The loan was unsecured with interest payable on funds borrowed at 1% per month. These proceeds were used for working capital and the continued development of our technologies and product. On January 3, 2011, the creditor granted us an increase in the borrowing limit from $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 and further increased to $4,000,000 on December 10, 2021. As of June 30, 2023, we have borrowed $3,377,000 (December 31, 2022 - $3,116,000) and have accrued interest outstanding of $377,000 (December 31, 2022 - $275,000). During the June 30, 2023 period, we borrowed $261,000 (year ended December 31, 2022 - $648,000), incurred interest of $195,000 (year ended December 31, 2022 - $362,000), and extinguished accrued interest of $93,000 (year ended December 31, 2022 - $198,000) through cash payments during 2023 and 2022.

 

Line of Credit from Mr. Sidney Chan

 

On March 6, 2011, we obtained a $2,500,000 line of credit from Mr. Sidney Chan. Under the terms of the arrangement, the amount we borrowed bears simple interest at a rate of 1% per month. The amount borrowed is secured by a general security agreement over our assets and is due on demand. Originally, the line of credit was for a comprehensive marketing program, but subsequently was amended to be for general corporate purposes. On April 1, 2014, Mr. Chan executed an amending agreement with the Company whereby Mr. Chan increased the borrowing limit of the line of credit he has provided to us from $4,000,000 to $5,500,000. On May 29, 2015, the borrowing limit was further increased to $7,000,000. On July 1, 2016, the borrowing limit was further increased to $8,500,000 and, on December 11, 2019, increased further to $10,300,000. As of June 30, 2023, we have borrowed $10,300,000 (December 31, 2022 - $10,300,000) and have accrued interest outstanding of $2,734,000 (December 31, 2022 - $2,136,000). During the June 30, 2023 period, we borrowed $Nil (year ended December 31, 2022 - $79,000), incurred interest of $618,000 (year ended December 31, 2022 - $1,235,000), extinguished accrued interest of $20,000 (year ended December 31, 2022 - $298,000) through cash payments during 2023 and 2022, and transferred $Nil (year ended December 31, 2022 - $9,000) to interest payable pursuant to a private transaction.

Short- and Long-term Liquidity

 

As of June 30, 2023, we do not have the current financial resources and committed financing to enable the Company to meet its administrative overhead, product development budgeted costs and debt obligations over the next twelve months.

 

The majority of our debt financing is due on demand or overdue. We will seek to obtain creditors’ consents to delay repayment of these loans until we are able to replace these financings with funds generated by operations, replacement debt, or from equity financings through private placements or the exercise of options and warrants. While our creditors have agreed to extend repayment deadlines in the past, there is no assurance that they will continue to do so in the future. We have faced litigation from creditors in the past and have been issued consent judgments by more than one creditor. There is no assurance that additional creditors will not make claims against us in the future. Failure to obtain either replacement financing or creditor consent to delay the repayment of existing financing could result in us having to cease operations.

We will continue to use the funds available from the lines of credit to cover administrative overhead and product development requirements until such time as we can establish cash flows from operations. In the next year, we anticipate the amount borrowed under the lines of credit to increase and the further requirement to source additional funds, as we expect to commercially launch our GluCurve product during 2023 and proceed with activities to launch our Diabetes Solution product with CGM for Human Health.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Going Concern

 

Our discussion and analysis of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources are based on our unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2023, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

 

The preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical and anticipated results, trends and various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results may differ materially from our estimates.

 

The Company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which presumes the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of operations for the foreseeable future. See note 1 of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

 

Due to our being a development stage company and not having generated significant revenues, in the notes to our condensed interim consolidated financial statements, we have included disclosure regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

There are no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

Not applicable. The Company is a smaller reporting company as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

 

ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this assessment, we found our disclosure controls and procedures to be not effective due to insufficient written policies and procedures for reporting requirements and accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of U.S. GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.

 

This assessment is consistent with the evaluation by Company’s management of our internal controls over financial reporting, as set forth in Item 9A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

 

While the Company is working to remedy these deficiencies as its business activities evolve, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
