LIQUIDITY AND MANAGEMENT PLANS

 

At December 31, 2016, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $26.7 million and working capital of approximately $25.8 million. The Company has not generated revenues since inception and has incurred recurring operating losses. At December 31, 2016, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $96.0 million. In August 2016, the Company completed its IPO of 3,680,000 shares of common stock, raising net proceeds of approximately $24.7 million.

 

During 2017, the Company’s operating plans include increased headcount in research and development and sales and business development. Based on the funds it has available as of the date of the filing of this report, the Company believes that it has sufficient capital to fund its current business plans and obligations over, at least, 12 months from the date of filing this Annual Report, and to enable one or more customers to license and qualify its technology and start full-scale industrial production of devices that incorporate the Company’s technology. However, as a development stage company the Company is subject to all the risks inherent in the initial organization, financing, expenditures, complications and delays in a new business. Accordingly, the Company may require additional capital, the receipt of which cannot be assured. In the event the Company requires additional capital, there can be no guarantee that funds will be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.
