Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2017

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Findex.com, Inc. ("Findex") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on November 7, 1997, and is headquartered in Lake Park, Florida. The Company's EcoSmart's coating operations is the current driver of both operating overhead and revenue. EcoSmart centers around a proprietary line of specialty materials coatings that have a broad range of value-adding industrial, commercial, residential and consumer applications. In addition, Advanced Nanofibers LLC ("Advanced") is a variable interest entity of which the Company owned a minority 24.875% interest at December 31, 2016 and is considered the primary beneficiary based on qualitative and quantitative features. Advanced is a Florida-based, nano-technology firm founded in September 2016 by the Company and two other technology firms as a collaborative joint venture focused on globally broadening the utilization of nanoparticle-enhanced nanofibers across a diverse range of mass-market industrial and consumer applications. Advanced is rapidly evolving and expected by management to eventually outpace EcoSmart's coating operations in terms of percentage growth on both the expense and revenue sides. Despite Advanced's lack of revenue to date, it is a venture that the Company's management has been and continues to be very actively involved in developing, and that is increasingly consuming a greater percentage of the Company's financial and human resources, a trend management expects to continue into the foreseeable future.

ECOSMART

The Company's core business is centered around a line of specialty industrial glass-based "smart surface" coatings that have a wide range of uses across each of the industrial, commercial, and household market segments and that are centered around a U.S. patented technology that, either on its own or when coupled with any of an array of available proprietary formula additives, offers a unique combination of beneficial surface properties that allow for a broad array of multi-surface and end-product applications. Among others, such applications include:

Over time, EcoSmart intends to develop itself in the strategic direction of becoming a leading research-oriented high-tech specialty "smart-surface" materials development and licensing company centered around a highly-qualified research team and state-of-the-art research lab and applying a combination of organic and inorganic chemistries, materials science engineering, and nanotechnology. EcoSmart currently has expertise and capabilities in each of these areas.

ADVANCED NANOFIBERS (VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY)

Advanced Nanofibers LLC ("Advanced") is a variable interest entity of which the Company owned a minority 23.88% interest at March 31, 2017 and is considered the primary beneficiary based on qualitative and quantitative features. Advanced is a Florida-based, nano-technology firm founded in September 2016 by the Company and two other technology firms as a collaborative joint venture focused on globally broadening the utilization of nanoparticle-enhanced nanofibers across a diverse range of mass-market industrial and consumer applications. Company management believes Advanced's prospects are extraordinary based on the following key factors that afford it a distinct competitive advantage:

At March 31, 2017, Advanced Nanofibers was owned and controlled approximately 96% by its three founding entities, each of which have been actively involved in its development to date. In addition to the Company, this includes Nanotech Fibers LLC, a recently organized, Florida-based, closely-held, private firm engaged in various strategic pursuits within and surrounding the nanotech and related materials industrial sector, and EnVont, LLC, a Florida-based, venture-stage developer and marketer of proprietary nanotechnology-based materials and coatings focused on protective thin films, smart, self-cleaning coatings and multi-functional particles. Although it is still in a pre-revenue stage of development, the Company's management team currently devotes a very significant percentage of its time to the business of Advanced Nanofibers.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year or for any future period. The December 31, 2016 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Findex.com, Inc. included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 17, 2017.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries (Reagan Holdings, Inc., Findex.com, Inc. Delaware, and ESCT Acquisition Corp.), and the accounts of Advanced Nanofibers LLC, a Florida limited liability company and variable interest entity, of which the Company has been deemed the primary beneficiary. As of March 31, 2017, the Company owns a non-controlling, minority interest of 23.88% in Advanced. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications

Certain accounts in the Company's 2016 financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform with the presentation in 2017 financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company's estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. Significant estimates include inventory evaluation for slow moving and obsolete items, collectability of accounts receivable, assessing intangibles for impairment, useful lives of assets, and valuation of stock based compensation and consideration of variable interest entities.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

INVENTORY

The Company's inventories are recorded at the lower of cost or market using the first in, first out method. The Company's inventory consists of raw materials and finished goods. The Company takes into consideration certain inventory items that are slow moving and obsolete and calculates a provision for these inventory items.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS OTHER THAN GOODWILL

The Company's intangible assets consist of patents and patents pending acquired from third parties, and are recorded at cost. In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 350-30, General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill , intangible assets with an indefinite useful life are not amortized. Intangible assets with a finite useful life are amortized on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, generally three to ten years. All intangible assets are tested for impairment annually during the fourth quarter.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 605-10, Revenue Recognition , which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation, and disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. ASC 605-10 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies. The Company recognizes revenue when the earnings process is complete. That is, when the arrangements of the goods are documented, the pricing becomes final and collectability is reasonably assured. An allowance for bad debt is provided based on estimated losses.

Revenue is recognized when a product is delivered or shipped to the customer and all material conditions relating to the sale have been substantially performed.

In addition, within the Company's operations as a whole, the Company derives part of its revenues from the sale of downloadable software products. The Company recognizes software revenue for software products and related services in accordance with ASC 985-605, Software Revenue Recognition . The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists (generally a purchase order), the Company has delivered the product, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectability is probable. In some situations, the Company receives advance payments from the Company's customers. The Company defers revenue associated with these advance payments until the Company ships the products or offers the support.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

The Company's research and development costs consist of direct production costs, including labor directly associated with the development of projects and outside consultants, and indirect costs such as those associated with facilities use. For labor costs and costs of outside consultants, the Company records the research and development costs as a reduction against either personnel costs or professional fees. For facilities leasing related expenses, the Company records the research and development costs as a reduction against rent. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized $88,471 and $47,985, respectively, in research and development costs.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company recognizes share-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation , using the modified prospective method. ASC 718 requires that the Company measure the cost of the employee services received in exchange for an award for equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value and to recognize this cost over the requisite service period. See Note 8.

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

The Company follows the guidance of ASC 260, Earnings Per Share , to calculate and report basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS"). Basic EPS is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is computed by giving effect to all dilutive potential shares of common stock that were outstanding during the period. For the Company, dilutive potential shares of common stock consist of the incremental shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants for all periods and convertible notes payable.

When discontinued operations, extraordinary items, and/or the cumulative effect of an accounting change are present, income before any of such items on a per share basis represents the "control number" in determining whether potential shares of common stock are dilutive or anti-dilutive. Thus, the same number of potential shares of common stock used in computing diluted EPS for income from continuing operations is used in calculating all other reported diluted EPS amounts. In the case of a net loss, it is assumed that no incremental shares would be issued because they would be anti-dilutive. In addition, certain options and warrants are considered anti-dilutive because the exercise prices were above the average market price during the period. Anti-dilutive shares are not included in the computation of diluted EPS, in accordance with ASC 260-10-45-17.

The calculations of net loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 excluded the impact of the following potential common shares as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

As of March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company has presented $114,368 of Accrued royalties in discontinued operations. The royalties pertain to the Company's sale of the QuickVerse ® product line in 2011. See Note 12.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

At March 31, 2017, there were no recent accounting pronouncements that the Company believed would have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplates the Company's continuation as a going concern. However, as of March 31, 2017, the Company had negative working capital of $2,714,237 and had an accumulated deficit of $6,719,457. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management has taken several actions in an attempt to mitigate this risk. These actions include capital raising initiatives involving the issuance of equity and/or notes payable to investors, as well as cash conservation initiatives involving the issuance of equity and/or notes payable to employees and related parties. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to these uncertainties.

NOTE 3 – CONSOLIDATED VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY

The Financial Accounting Standards Board authoritative guidance on consolidation requires the "primary beneficiary" of a variable interest entity (a "VIE") to consolidate that entity. The "primary beneficiary" of a VIE, for this purpose, is a company that has a controlling financial interest in the VIE without any corresponding voting rights control. Controlling financial interests exist when a company has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact a VIE's economic performance, on the one hand, and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE, on the other. The Company is one member, along with two other technology firms, of a collaborative joint venture limited liability company, Advanced Nanofibers LLC ("Advanced"). This enterprise was formed by the joint venture participants for the purpose of focusing on globally broadening the utilization of nanoparticle-enhanced nanofibers across a diverse range of mass-market industrial and consumer applications. The Company was involved in the formation of Advanced in September 2016. During the fourth quarter of 2016, the Company determined that it was the primary beneficiary of Advanced based on qualitative and quantitative factors. Among other factors, and more specifically, the equity investors in Advanced do not, and are not obligated to, provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support itself in terms of day-to-day research and development activities. However, the Company has provided financial support that is disproportionate to its equity interest and our CEO was involved in the organization of the entity. U.S. GAAP thereunder, requires a VIE to be consolidated by a company if and when that company holds a majority of the variable interests in the entity and is thus subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the VIE's activities. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company provided the financial resources in the amount of $55,306 as support for Advanced's day-to-day research and development activities and a total of $108,056 since Advanced's inception. See Note 1.

The carrying value of the assets and liabilities of Advanced which are consolidated as of March 31, 2017 are as follows:

NOTE 4 – INVENTORIES

For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recorded depreciation expense of $5,083 and $4,365, respectively.

NOTE 6 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company's intangible assets consist of patents and patents pending acquired from third parties, and are recorded at cost. The Company amortizes the costs of its intangible assets over their estimated useful lives unless such lives of approximately 11 years. Patents pending are not amortized until the patents are issued. Amortizable intangible assets are tested for impairment based on undiscounted cash flows and, if impaired, written down to fair value based on either discounted cash flows or appraised values. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested for impairment, at least annually, and written down to fair value as required.

The Company's intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization consisted of the following:

The Surface Modification Technologies assets include a patent, a patent pending, trade secret technology, instructions, manuals and materials on certain manufacturing processes and know-how. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recorded amortization expense of $11,878 and $11,878, respectively. See Note 1.

As of March 31, 2017, there were no warrants outstanding.

NOTE 9 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims that may arise in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the amount of potential liability the Company is likely to be found liable for otherwise incur as a result of these actions is not so much as would materially affect the Company's financial condition.

The Company occupies an office building for its corporate headquarters located in Lake Park, Florida. In January 2015, the Company renewed a lease agreement with a shareholder for this 8,560 square foot facility under a five year lease agreement ending December 31, 2019 with an option to renew for one successive term of five years at the then current occupancy rates. The monthly rent, including sales and use taxes, is $7,211. In accordance with the terms of the leasehold agreement, the Company is responsible for all utilities, repairs and maintenance.

In February 2015, the Company entered into a lease agreement for a research facility located in Daytona Beach, Florida. The Company leased this 3,200 square foot facility under a month-to-month lease agreement which ended on December 31, 2016. The monthly rent, including sales and use taxes, was $2,929. In accordance with the terms of the leasehold agreement, we were responsible for all utilities, repairs and maintenance. In June 2016, the Company provided notice that we were terminating this lease agreement effective July 31, 2016.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company has accrued $7,891 for past rent owed less a deposit of $2,500 (total $5,391). The Company has since relocated all property and equipment as well as all personnel previously occupying this facility to our corporate headquarters located in Lake Park, Florida.

Total rent expense for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 for these facilities, before adjustments of reclassified facilities cost for research and development, totaled $21,638 and $30,435, respectively.

Description of Business

Findex.com, Inc. is headquartered in Lake Park, Florida. The Company's EcoSmart's coating operations is the current driver of both operating overhead and revenue. EcoSmart centers around a proprietary line of specialty materials coatings that have a broad range of value-adding industrial, commercial, residential and consumer applications. In addition, Advanced Nanofibers LLC ("Advanced") is a Florida-based, nanotechnology firm founded in September 2016 by the Company and two other technology firms as a collaborative joint venture focused on globally broadening the utilization of nanoparticle-enhanced nanofibers across a diverse range of mass-market industrial and consumer applications with a particular emphasis in the near-term on applications in the cement and concrete industries. At March 31, 2017, the Company owned a minority 23.88% interest in Advanced and was, for accounting purposes, deemed a variable interest entity ("VIE") of the Company based on it being the primary beneficiary, among the equity owners of the firm, of the variable interests involved based on a variety of qualitative and quantitative criteria. Advanced is rapidly evolving and, although there can be no assurance, expected by management to eventually outpace EcoSmart's coating operations in terms of percentage growth on both the expense and revenue sides, so much so that even the Company's minority interest in Advanced is expected, over time, to more significantly impact the Company's results of operations on a stand-alone basis than all other Company operations combined. Despite Advanced's lack of revenue to date, it is a venture that the Company's management has been and continues to be very actively involved in developing, and that is increasingly consuming a greater percentage of our financial and human resources, a trend management expects to continue into the foreseeable future.

ECOSMART

The Company's core business is centered around a line of specialty industrial glass-based "smart surface" coatings that have a wide range of uses across each of the industrial, commercial, and household market segments and that are centered around a U.S. patented technology that, either on its own or when coupled with any of an array of available proprietary formula additives, offers a unique combination of beneficial surface properties that allow for a broad array of multi-surface and end-product applications. Among others, such applications include:

Over time, EcoSmart intends to develop itself in the strategic direction of becoming a leading research-oriented high-tech specialty "smart-surface" materials development and licensing company centered around a highly-qualified research team and state-of-the-art research lab and applying a combination of organic and inorganic chemistries, materials science engineering, and nanotechnology. EcoSmart currently has expertise and capabilities in each of these areas.

ADVANCED NANOFIBERS (VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY)

Advanced Nanofibers LLC ("Advanced") is a Florida-based, nanotechnology firm founded in September 2016 by the Company and two other technology firms as a collaborative joint venture focused on globally broadening the utilization of nanoparticle-enhanced nanofibers across a diverse range of mass-market industrial and consumer applications. At March 31, 2017, the Company owned a minority 23.88% interest in Advanced and was, for accounting purposes, deemed a variable interest entity ("VIE") of the Company based on it being the primary beneficiary, among the equity owners of the firm, of the variable interests involved based on a variety of qualitative and quantitative criteria. Company management believes Advanced's prospects are extraordinary based on the following key factors that afford it a distinct competitive advantage:

At March 31, 2017, Advanced Nanofibers was owned and controlled approximately 96% by its three founding entities, each of which have been actively involved in its development to date. In addition to the Company, this includes Nanotech Fibers LLC, a recently organized, Florida-based, closely-held, private firm engaged in various strategic pursuits within and surrounding the nanotech and related materials industrial sector, and EnVont, LLC, a Florida-based, venture-stage developer and marketer of proprietary nanotechnology-based materials and coatings focused on protective thin films, smart, self-cleaning coatings and multi-functional particles. Although it is still in a pre-revenue stage of development, the Company's management team currently devotes a very significant percentage of its time to the business of Advanced Nanofibers.

Management Overview

A key focus of management during the three months ended March 31, 2017 centered on the Company's continuing initiatives to explore and build relationships with potentially key strategic business partners, investors, and potential distributors and/or resellers of our EcoSmart coatings products. To varying degrees, these relationships were aggressively pursued in order to establish, further develop, and/or expand our EcoSmart market share within our most highly targeted verticals, including heavy machinery and equipment hardware, industrial and consumer HVAC equipment systems, hardscape products, and marine products. Throughout the three months ended March 31, 2017, management has been, as it has continued to be and expects for the foreseeable future to be, committed to securing and solidifying foundational relationships within each of these markets and intends to allocate a significant portion of Company financial and human resources accordingly.

Following its formation of what is currently a minority 23.88% equity interest in Advanced Nanofibers LLC in September of 2016, the Company began allocating increasing amounts of its financial and human resources to the development of that business. The resource allocations through March 31, 2017 in this regard centered primarily around Advanced Nanofiber's technology, manufacturing, and related systems. Increasingly, and since year end, allocations have broadened in scope to include strategic marketing and sales initiatives.

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, and across the board, management remained focused on three primary areas identified as keys to the near-term viability, growth and prosperity of the Company. One area is revenue generation, as effected through the formalization of various distribution and licensing relationships that the Company has been pursuing over time. A second area is the maximization of cash flow and return on existing assets, as effected through the refinement of internal production operations and throughput efficiencies. The third other area is corporate finance, and specifically the raising of capital necessary to bridge shortfalls in available cash, for both operational and capital investment purposes, through to the point, if at all, at which working capital and cash reserve levels are sufficient to be self-sustaining.

At this time, near-term liquidity poses a continuous challenge to us and is expected to continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Moreover, the need to find ways to stretch our very limited economic resources places ongoing strains on our very limited human resources.

Results of Operations for Quarters Ending March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016

The differing results of operations are primarily attributable to the following for the three months ended March 31, 2017:

Although there can be no assurance, in future periods, we anticipate an increase in overall Company revenues as well as an increase in overall sales, marketing and general and administrative expenses due to our anticipated growth and expansion in certain vertical markets.

Revenues

The differing results of our net revenues are primarily attributable to the following for the three months ended March 31, 2017:

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, one shareholder/related party accounted for approximately 29% of our revenue and, as a group, the sales to shareholders/related parties accounted for approximately 32% of our revenues. Although there can be no assurance, we anticipate an increase in overall Company revenues in future periods as we continue to pursue a variety of vertical markets that management has been targeting over the past year as near-term opportunities for revenue growth.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales consists primarily of direct costs, royalties accrued to providers of intellectual property, and the costs associated with reproducing, packaging, and shipping our products. As a percentage of net revenues, our cost of sales decreased 12% from 42% for the three months ended March 31, 2016 to 30% for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The overall decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2017 is attributable to the following:

Into the immediate future, we anticipate that our direct costs are likely to increase in real dollar terms based on escalating sales volume coupled with the likelihood of an inability to make material purchases in bulk at meaningfully discounted rates due to cash restraints. Though there can be no assurance that our cash position and financial condition will improve over time, if it does, we intend to take advantage of bulk purchasing opportunities at discounted rates. More generally, we anticipate that our cost of sales will increase in the future in direct proportion to increases in top line growth.

Sales, General and Administrative

Our research and development costs consist of direct production costs, including labor directly associated with the development of projects and outside consultants, and indirect costs, such as those associated with facilities leasing and related overhead. For labor costs and costs of outside consultants, we record the research and development costs as a reduction against either personnel costs or contract services. For facilities leasing related expenses, we record the research and development costs as a reduction against rent. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, we reclassified to research and development approximately $44,000 from total personnel costs and approximately $3,000 from rent. Comparatively, for the three months ended March 31, 2016, we reclassified to research and development approximately $38,000 from total personnel costs and approximately $9,000 from rent.

The differing results of total sales, marketing, general and administrative costs are primarily attributable to the following for the three months ended March 31, 2017:

For the immediate future, and although there can be no assurance, we would anticipate that our sales, marketing, general and administrative costs will increase in the future in direct proportion to top line growth.

Income Taxes

For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, based on uncertainty about the timing of and ability to generate future taxable income and our assessment that the realization of the deferred tax assets no longer met the "more likely than not" accounting criterion for realization, we provided for a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets. If we determine at some point that it is more likely than not that we will be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance would be recorded in the period when such determination is made.

Liquidity And Capital Resources

Our primary needs for liquidity and capital resources are the working capital requirements of our continued operations, which includes raw materials procurement, production personnel, service applications personnel, the ongoing internal development of new products and expansion and upgrade of existing products, marketing and sales, and executive salaries and insurance benefit obligations. Cash generated through our current operations may not prove sufficient to sustain such operations, and our pursuit of an aggressive growth plan, as currently exists, will likely require funding from outside sources. Funding from outside sources may include but is not limited to the pursuit of other financing options such as commercial loans or public or private sales of securities, including common stock, preferred stock and/or convertible notes or debentures. The Company's cash on hand as of March 31, 2017 was not sufficient to support our operations for the next twelve months.

Liquidity for our day-to-day continuing operations remains a very serious ongoing concern for us, and there can be no assurance of it remaining manageable.

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 consisted mainly of payments for personnel, inventory purchases, vendor payments and other operating expenses.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, cash provided by financing activities was mainly the result of proceeds from the sale of common stock as well as the sale of an equity interest in Advanced. As an offset to the cash provided for the three months ended March 31, 2017, we also made certain payments towards retirement of various notes payable. Comparatively, cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was primarily the result of cash proceeds from the sale of convertible notes.

Financing

Given practical considerations, we believe that our ability to meaningfully pursue our business plan in the immediate term will depend on the availability of working capital, the precise amount of which is uncertain as the date of this quarterly filing on Form 10-Q given certain variables surrounding our ability to generate funds internally, including through both sales of product and/or territorial product distributorships. To the extent that it becomes necessary to access funds through a public or private sales of securities, as we have been doing and expect to continue to have to do for the foreseeable future, this is likely to be pursued through one or more offerings involving common stock, preferred stock and/or convertible notes or debentures. In connection with any such financings, it may become necessary given market conditions and the unavailability of alternative options for us to issue additional shares of our common stock or securities exchangeable for shares of our common stock, including but not limited to convertible preferred stock or convertible notes or debentures containing so-called "floorless convertible" provisions that can be, and often are, extremely dilutive to existing stockholders upon conversion. Any such issuances, as well as any related issuances of common stock or other purchase warrants, would likely have the effect of depressing the market price of our common stock and diluting the interests of our common stockholders, potentially very significantly.

No attempt has been made for many years to secure any bank or other secured financing due to management's practical conclusion that it would be an unproductive allocation of human resources given our historic revenue and cash flow levels, internal financial ratios, and negative working capital position. We do not expect any change in this status for the foreseeable future.

Discontinued Operations

As of March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company has presented $114,368 of Accrued royalties in discontinued operations. The royalties pertain to the Company's sale of the QuickVerse ® product line in 2011.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any 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.

Contractual Obligations

As a "smaller reporting company" as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide this information.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

As a "smaller reporting company" as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide this information.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our principal executive and principal financial officers are responsible for assessing the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Accordingly, we maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer has evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q March 31, 2017, and has determined that such disclosure controls and procedures are not effective. Our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as a result of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting because of inadequate segregation of duties over authorization, review and recording of transactions as well as the financial reporting of such transactions. Management is attempting to develop a plan to mitigate the above material weaknesses.

Changes in Internal Controls

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter covered by this report, other than those disclosed above that materially affected, or is reasonable likely to materially effect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

As of the date of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2017, and to the best knowledge of our officers and directors, there were no pending material legal proceedings to which we were a party and we were not aware that any were contemplated. There can be no assurance, however, that we will not be made a party to litigation in the future.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

As a "smaller reporting company" as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide information required by this Item.
