our ability to generate net sales in an amount to pay our operating expenses,

our need for additional financing and uncertainties related to our ability to obtain these funds,

our ability to repay the outstanding debt of approximately $8.3 million at July 31, 2018 due our Executive Chairman, the majority of which matures on December 31, 2019;

the significant amount of deferred compensation owed to two of our executive officers and one other employee and our ability to pay these amounts,

our ability to protect our intellectual property, and the potential impact of expiring patents on our business in future periods,

anti-takeover provisions of Delaware law and our Board's ability to issue preferred stock without stockholder consent,

potential dilution to our stockholders from the exercise of outstanding options and warrants,

the lack of sufficient liquidity in the market for our common stock, and

(UNAUDITED)

Basis of Presentation, Going Concern and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization

Puradyn Filter Technologies Incorporated (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, is engaged in the manufacturing, distribution and sale of bypass oil filtration systems under the trademark Puradyn ^® primarily to companies within targeted industries. The Company holds the exclusive worldwide manufacturing and marketing rights for the Puradyn products through direct ownership of various patents.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-K. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of a normal and recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2018 may not necessarily be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018.

For further information, refer to the Company's financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from product sales to customers, distributors and resellers when products that do not require further services or installation by the Company are shipped, when there are no uncertainties surrounding customer acceptance and when collectability is reasonably assured. Cash received by the Company prior to shipment is recorded as deferred revenue. Sales are made to customers under terms allowing certain limited rights of return and other limited product and performance warranties for which provision has been made in the accompanying financial statements.

Amounts billed to customers in sales transactions related to shipping and handling, represent revenues earned for the goods provided and are included in net sales. Costs of shipping and handling are included in cost of products sold.

The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with Topic 606 which was adopted at the beginning of fiscal year 2018 using the modified retrospective method. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The Company did not recognize any cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings upon adoption as the effect was immaterial. The adoption of these standards did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed statements of operations in during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.

(UNAUDITED)

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and notes payable to stockholder approximate their fair values as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, because of their short-term natures.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded at fair value on the date revenue is recognized. The Company provides allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to repay their obligation. If the financial condition of the Company's customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to repay, additional allowances may be required. The Company provides for potential uncollectible accounts receivable based on specific customer identification and historical collection experience adjusted for existing market conditions. If market conditions decline, actual collection experience may not meet expectations and may result in decreased cash flows and increased bad debt expense.

The policy for determining past due status is based on the contractual payment terms of each customer, which are generally net 30 or net 60 days. Once collection efforts by the Company and its collection agency are exhausted, the determination for charging off uncollectible receivables is made.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using the first in, first out (FIFO) method. Production costs, consisting of labor and overhead, are applied to ending finished goods inventories at a rate based on estimated production capacity. Excess production costs are charged to cost of products sold. Provisions have been made to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their net realizable value.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, except for assets held under capital leases, for which the Company records depreciation and amortization based on the shorter of the asset’s useful life or the term of the lease. The estimated useful lives of property and equipment range from 3 to 5 years. Upon sale or retirement, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are eliminated from their respective accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is included in results of operations. Repairs and maintenance charges, which do not increase the useful lives of the assets, are charged to operations as incurred.

Patents

Patents are stated at cost. Amortization is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the patents. The estimated useful lives of patents are 17 to 20 years. Upon retirement, the cost and related accumulated amortization are eliminated from their respective accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is included in results of operations.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Management assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets when indicators of impairment are present. If such indicators are present, recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing the undiscounted net cash flows estimated to result from those assets over the remaining life to the assets’ net carrying amounts. If the estimated undiscounted net cash flows are less than the net carrying amount, the assets would be adjusted to their fair value, based on appraisal or the present value of the undiscounted net cash flows.

Product Warranty Costs

As required by FASB ASC 460, Guarantor’s Guarantees , the Company is including the following disclosure applicable to its product warranties.

The Company accrues for warranty costs based on the expected material and labor costs to provide warranty replacement products. The methodology used in determining the liability for warranty cost is based upon historical information and experience. The Company's warranty reserve is included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed financial statements and is calculated as the gross sales multiplied by the historical warranty expense return rate. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, there was no change to the reserve for warranty liability as the reserve balance was deemed sufficient to absorb any warranty costs that might be incurred from the sales activity for the period.

The following table shows the changes in the aggregate product warranty liability for the six -months ended June 30, 2018:


Balance as of December 31, 2017	$	20,000
Less: Payments made		—
Add: Provision for current period warranties		—
Balance as of June 30, 2018 (unaudited)	$	20,000

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. During the three and six months ended June, 2018 and 2017, advertising costs incurred by the Company totaled approximately $2,904 and $3,333, $0 and $0, respectively, and are included in selling and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.

Engineering and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, engineering and development costs incurred by the Company totaled $1,384 and $2,813, and $1,575 and $1,575, respectively, and are included in selling and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes . Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.

Stock Option Plans

We adopted FASB ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, effective January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective application method of adoption which requires us to record compensation cost related to unvested stock awards as of December 31, 2005 by recognizing the amortized grant date fair value in accordance with provisions of FASB ASC 718 on straight line basis over the service periods of each award. We have estimated forfeiture rates based on our historical experience. Stock option compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2017 has been recognized as a component of cost of goods sold and general and administrative expenses in the accompanying financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

PURADYN FILTER TECHNOLOGIES INCORPORATED

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

The Company leases its employees from a payroll leasing company. The Company’s leased employees meet the definition of employees as specified by FASB Interpretation No. 44 for purposes of applying FASB ASC 718.

Stock options and warrants issued to consultants and other non-employees as compensation for services provided to the Company are accounted for based on the fair value of the services provided or the estimated fair market value of the option or warrant, whichever is more reliably measurable in accordance with FASB ASC 505, Equity, and FASB ASC 718 , Compensation-Stock Compensation, including related amendments and interpretations. The related expense is recognized over the period the services are provided.

Credit Risk

The Company minimizes the concentration of credit risk associated with its cash by maintaining its cash with high quality federally insured financial institutions. However, cash balances in excess of the FDIC insured limit of $250,000 are at risk. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, the Company did not have cash balances above the FDIC insured limit. The Company performs ongoing evaluations of its significant trade accounts receivable customers and generally does not require collateral. An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained against trade accounts receivable at levels which management believes is sufficient to cover probable credit losses. The Company also has some customer concentrations, and the loss of business from one or a combination of these significant customers, or an unexpected deterioration in their financial condition, could adversely affect the Company’s operations. Please refer to Note 15 for further details.

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

The Company uses ASC 260-10, "Earnings Per Share" for calculating the basic and diluted income (loss) per share. The Company computes basic income (loss) per share by dividing net income (loss) and net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. As of June 30, 2018 and 2017, there were 13,276,412 and 4,497,662 shares issuable upon the exercise of options and warrants, respectively. Common stock equivalent shares are excluded from the computation of net loss per share if their effect is anti-dilutive. The Company had net income for the three month period ended June 30, 2018. A separate computation of diluted earnings per share is presented using the treasury stock method and the common stock equivalents did not have any effect on net income per share.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, " Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ," which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification 605, " Revenue Recognition ." This ASU is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, which deferred the effective date of the new revenue standard by one year, and allowed entities the option to early adopt the new revenue standard as of the original effective date. There have been multiple standards updates amending this guidance or providing corrections or improvements on issues in the guidance. The requirements for these standards relating to Topic 606 are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. This standard permitted adoption using one of two transition methods, either the retrospective or modified retrospective transition method.

PURADYN FILTER TECHNOLOGIES INCORPORATED

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

The Company adopted these standards at the beginning of fiscal year 2018 using the modified retrospective method. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The adoption of these standards did not have a material impact on the Company's Condensed Statements of Operations during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

All other newly issued accounting pronouncements not yet effective have been deemed either immaterial or not applicable.

Going Concern

The Company's financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has sustained losses since inception and used net cash in operations of $413,949 and $355,708 during the six-months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. As a result, the Company has had to rely stockholder loans and related parties to fund its activities to date.

These recurring operating losses, liabilities exceeding assets and the reliance on cash inflows from two stockholders led the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Liggett & Webb, P.A., to include a statement in its audit report relating to the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 expressing substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

OVERVIEW

Our company

We design, manufacture, market and distribute worldwide the Puradyn® bypass oil filtration system for use with substantially all internal combustion engines and hydraulic equipment that use lubricating oil. Working in conjunction with the equipment’s primary oil filter, the Puradyn system cleans oil by providing a second circuit of oil filtration and treatment to continually remove solid and liquid contaminants from the oil through a sophisticated and unique filtration and absorption process. The Puradyn system consists of a base filtration unit or housing that is connected via hoses or steel tubing to the engine or hydraulic system, along with filter elements that reside inside the filtration unit and are replaced periodically to maintain top performance. We believe that our filter is unique in that it incorporates an additive package to replenish depleted base additive levels in engine lubricating oil. Because Puradyn -filtered lubricating oil is kept in a continually clean state and within engine manufacturers’ specification, our system has been used effectively to safely and significantly extend oil-drain intervals and to extend the time between engine overhauls.

Our core product, the patented Puradyn bypass oil filtration system, is offered in two primary applications, MTS engine systems and custom-engineered MTS hydraulic systems, which can be attached to almost any engine or hydraulic application. All Puradyn systems are compatible with virtually all standard and synthetic oils on the market, and they work with engines using gasoline, diesel, propane or natural gas. We are also the sole manufacturer and provider of Puradyn replacement filter elements for the Puradyn system. Our products are marketed to numerous industries that include hydraulic applications, and other users of engines or equipment that utilize up to 50 weight oil for lubrication. We focus our sales strategy on individual sales and distribution efforts as well as on the development of a global distribution network that will not only sell, but also install and support our product. DistributionNow (DNOW) joined the Puradyn distributor network in 2016 and became exclusive distributor for the oil and gas industry in September 2017. With 300 locations worldwide, DNOW provides the potential to reach to new markets and customers which we would otherwise not be able to effectively reach, and consistently support our product on a global basis. In addition to the DNOW network, we currently have approximately 45 distributors and dealers and manufacturer representatives that sell and/or service the Puradyn system in the U.S. and internationally. Today our products are found around the world in a number of industries, including oil and gas, power generation, construction and forestry, commercial marine, mining, and transportation.

Second quarter of 2018 business highlights


	·	Continued growth in sales to end users in the oil and gas industry with additional installations on rigs and new expansion into pressure pumping and pipeline operations;

	·	Renewed interest and installations by OEMs; and

	·	Accelerating growth in the commercial marine segment.

Second quarter of 2018 financial highlights:


	·	Sales growth of 100% during the second quarter of 2018 compared to the same period in 2017;

	·	Gross profit growth of over 1,000% during the second quarter of 2018 compared to the same period in 2017; and

	·	A net income of $8,872 for the second quarter of 2018 compared to a loss of $(383,025) in the same period in 2017.

Key strategies:

During the balance of 2018 we are focusing our sales and marketing efforts on:


	·	Further adoption of Puradyn in the pressure pumping and pipeline segments of the oil and gas industry;

	·	Increased marketing focus on the commercial marine segment; and

	·	Continued discussions with OEMs.

In addition, from an operating standpoint we are placing additional emphasis on:


	·	Managing materials costs and preparing for any impacts from new tariffs;

	·	Restructuring our distributor network and pricing levels; and

	·	Increasing operating capacity and efficiency.

Outlook

We attribute the increase in sales in the second quarter of 2018 and the six months then ended over the comparable periods in 2017 to a number of customers in targeted markets experiencing revived business outlook with apparent stability in the economy and oil pricing. We are also encouraged that the revenue growth derives from multiple customer segments, including continued growth in the sales to end users in the oil and gas industry, renewed interest by OEMs, and continued growth in the commercial marine segment. We have also seen increased demand for installations on pressure pumping fleets, which we estimate could represent a market for Puradyn that is two to three times the size of the traditional rig market.

The recent rebound in oil prices has driven both increased utilization by existing customers in the oil and gas industry as more rigs come back on line as well as new installations by companies who are once again able to make capital investments. We believe Puradyn systems are now active on at least 35% of all U.S. onshore rigs. We continue to work on closing a few remaining industry leaders, and we benefit from existing customers that advocate for us by sharing the results they are experiencing. Nabors Industries reaffirmed that because of their use of Puradyn filtration systems they not only are reducing oil changes by 80%, they are also skipping mid-cycle top-end engine overhauls, which can cost up to $85,000 per engine. Scandrill, Inc. has also standardized Puradyn on their entire fleet and credit our systems with enabling them to safely extend oil drain intervals to 5,000 hours from their previous practice of 1,000 hours.

Net sales in the 2018 periods includes reversal during the second quarter of 2018 of a previous sales credit of $99,128 recorded for a distributor.

Gross profit

Our gross profit margins for the second quarter of 2018 increased 33.3%, from 6.7% in the second quarter of 2017 to 40% in the second quarter of 2018, and by 18.8% for the first six months of 2018, from 22.5% for the first six months of 2017 to 41.4% for the first six months of 2018. The increase in our gross profit margins in the 2018 periods is attributable to operating efficiencies due to increased sales in the first quarter of 2018 and a significant decrease in the expense for slow moving inventory from amounts recorded in 2017. Subsequent to the end of the second quarter 2018 we have been advised by several of our suppliers that prices for various raw materials are being increased, both as a result of the loss of primary suppliers and higher prices with the secondary suppliers. We also expect to be impacted by recently enacted tariffs by the Trump Administration, however, at this time we are unable to quantify this impact on our costs. We will continue to review cost of materials increases, some of which may be passed through to our customers as product price increases in the future.

Total operating costs

Our total operating costs include salaries and wages and selling and administrative expenses. The reduction salaries and wages in each of the 2018 periods from the comparable 2017 periods reflects lower staffing levels from a reallocation of internal resources in an effort to increase operating efficiencies, and the impact of one employee who has lowered his salary in lieu of being paid from deferred compensation. We anticipate that our salaries and wages will increase during the balance of 2018. The increases in selling and administrative expenses during the second quarter of 2018 and the six months then ended from the comparable periods in 2017 is attributable to increases in non-cash expenses associated with stock compensation to employees. We anticipate that our selling and administration expenses will increase slightly throughout 2018, inclusive of communication costs, office supplies, and other components of administrative expenses.

Total other expense, net

Total other expense, net represents interest we pay to related parties on amounts advanced to us for working capital.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We had cash on hand of $184,607 and a working capital deficit of $1,518,306 at June 30, 2018 as compared to cash on hand of $54,438 and a working capital deficit of $9,470,970 at December 31, 2017. Our current ratio (current assets to current liabilities) was .48 to 1 at June 30, 2018 as compared to .08 to 1 at December 31, 2017. The decrease in negative working capital is primarily attributable to our Executive Chairman extending the maturity date of his working capital loans to December 31, 2019, thereby reclassifying these amounts from current liabilities to long-term liabilities, together with increases in inventory and accounts receivable which were offset by decreases in deferred compensation and sales incentives which were offset by decrease in cash and increase in accounts payable. We do not currently have any commitments for capital expenditures.

Historically, we have been materially reliant on working capital advances from our Executive Chairman to address our liquidity and working capital issues through the utilization of the borrowing agreement with him. In 2018 we have borrowed an additional $325,000 from him under short term demand notes, and at June 30, 2018 we owed him an aggregate of $8,314,622. We do not have the funds necessary to satisfy these obligations. While he has continued to fund our working capital needs and extend the due date of the obligation, he is under no contractual obligation to do so. During 2017 he advised us he does not expect to continue to provide working capital advances to us at historic amounts. If we are unable to meet our obligation to Mr. Vittoria prior to maturity, he has advised us that he may forgive all, or substantially all, of this obligation. However, he is under no obligation to do so.

We also owe certain of our employees $1,577,271 and $1,626,003, respectively in deferred cash compensation at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, which represents 54% and 16%, respectively of our current liabilities on that date. Since 2005, Mr. Kroger, our President and COO, and two other employees have deferred a portion of the compensation due them to assist us in managing our cash flow and working capital needs. As there is no written agreement with these employees which memorializes the terms of salary deferral, only an election to do so, it is possible the employees could demand payment in full at any time or elect to no longer defer their salaries, or reduce the amount they currently defer. We do not have sufficient funds to satisfy these obligations.

We do not have any external sources of liquidity at this time, and our discussions over the past few years with third parties for potential investments have not been successful. We historically have encountered resistance from potential investors on a variety of fronts, including our operating losses, and the amount of debt due Mr. Vittoria. In an effort to improve our ability to raise capital, on November 11, 2016 he converted $6,100,000 of principal and interest due him into shares of our common stock at a conversion price which was a premium to the market value of our common stock. However, following such conversion, the hoped for change in our potential financing sources looked at our company and risks associated with it have not changed. There can be no assurance we will be able to raise additional capital or generate enough to repay our debt holders, and it is possible that stockholders could lose their entire investment in our company.

Summary cash flows


	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2018			2017
	(unaudited)			(unaudited)

Net cash (used) by operating activities	$	(413,949	)	$	(355,708	)
Net cash (used) by investing activities	$	(55,729	)	$	(38,948	)
Net cash provided by financing activities	$	599,397		$	388,122

During the first six months of 2018 net cash used by our operating activities was principally related to funding our net loss, together with increases in inventory, accounts receivable and prepaid expenses offset by increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The increases in accounts receivable as well as the corresponding increases in inventory and accounts payable were a result of the Company’s expected increase in sales and timing of receiving raw materials. During the first six months of 2017, cash used by operating activities was primarily used to fund our net loss together with increase in accounts receivable were partially offset by decrease in inventory as well a provision for slow moving inventory and increase in accrued liabilities.

During the first six months of 2018, net cash used by investing activities represented capitalized patent costs. For the six months of 2017, net cash was used in investing activities for the purchase of equipment and capitalized patent costs.

During the first six months of 2018 and 2017, net cash provided by financing activities represented loans from related parties, net of capital lease payments.

Going concern

Our financial statements have been prepared on the basis that we will operate as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred net losses each year since inception and have relied on loans from related parties to fund our operations. These recurring operating losses, liabilities exceeding assets and the reliance on cash inflows from our principal stockholder, as set forth above, have led our independent registered public accounting firm Liggett & Webb, P.A. to include a statement in its audit report relating to our audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities when they become due and to continue to generate profitable operations in the future. There are no assurances that we will have sufficient funds to execute our business plan, pay our obligations as they become due or generate positive operating results.

Critical accounting policies and estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. The more critical accounting estimates include estimates related to revenue recognition and accounts receivable allowances. We also have other key accounting policies, which involve the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that are significant to understanding our results, which are described in Note 1 to our audited financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Information concerning recently issued accounting pronouncements is set forth in Note 1 of our notes to condensed financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report.

Off balance sheet arrangements

As of the date of this report, 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 are material to investors. The term "off-balance sheet arrangement" generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with us is a party, under which we have any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest or a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, which includes our CEO and our principal financial and accounting officer, have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-14(c) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of June 30, 2018 (the "Evaluation Date"). Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, our CEO and our principal financial and accounting officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to our company, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our principal financial and accounting officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS.

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and our subsequent filings with the SEC, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results, subject to the new or modified risk factors appearing below that should be read in conjunction with the risk factors disclosed in such Form 10-K. These cautionary statements are to be used as a reference in connection with any forward-looking statements. The factors, risks and uncertainties identified in these cautionary statements are in addition to those contained in any other cautionary statements, written or oral, which may be made or otherwise addressed in connection with a forward-looking statement or contained in any of our subsequent filings with the SEC.

WE NEED ADDITIONAL FINANCING WHICH WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO OBTAIN ON ACCEPTABLE TERMS. IF WE CANNOT RAISE ADDITIONAL CAPITAL AS NEEDED, OUR ABILITY TO FUND OUR ONGOING OPERATIONS WILL BE IN JEOPARDY AND WE WILL BE UNABLE TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN.

As described elsewhere herein, our net sales are not sufficient to pay our operating expenses. Our capital requirements depend on a number of factors, including our ability to internally grow our revenues, manage our business and control our expenses. Historically, our operations have been financed primarily through loans from our Chief Executive Officer, as well as other affiliates. Our Chief Executive Officer recently advised us that he does not expect to continue to provide working capital advances to the Company at historic levels. Given our history of losses and debt levels, we face a number of challenges in our ability to raise capital. If we do not significantly increase our net sales or raise funds as needed, our ability to provide for current working capital needs, pay our obligations as they become due, grow our company, and continue our existing business and operations is in jeopardy. In this event, we would no longer be able to continue as a going concern and you could lose all of your investment in our company.

WE OWE APPROXIMATELY $8.3 MILLION, THE MAJORITY OF WHICH IS DUE BY DECEMBER 31, 2019.

At June 30, 2018, we owed our Executive Chairman approximately $8.3 million. This obligation is unsecured. Substantially all of this amount is due on December 31, 2019, however, $325,000 of which is due on demand. We do not have sufficient funds to repay these obligations. If our Executive Chairman does not consent to further extensions of the due date of these amount, we will be unable to repay these obligations when due.
