Actual results could vary from the estimates that were used.

~~Accounts~~Restricted receivable are carried at the outstanding amount due less an allowance for doubtful accounts, if an allowance is deemed necessary. Allowance for doubtful accounts are established when there is a basis to doubt the full collectability of the accounts receivable. On a periodic basis, the Company evaluates its accounts receivable and determines the requirement for an allowance, based on its history of past write-offs, collections and current conditions. When an account receivable is ultimately determined to be uncollectible and due diligence for collection has taken place, the account receivable is written-off.cash

~~Inventory~~Accounts consists primarily of raw materials and finished goods that the Company holds for sale in the ordinary course of business. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (determined on the first-in, first-out basis) or market. Other manufacturing overhead costs are also allocated to finished goods inventory. The amount of these allocations to inventory was approximately $130,000 at June 30, 2013 and $111,000 at December 31, 2012, respectively. Management periodically evaluates the composition of inventory and estimates an allowance to reduce inventory for slow moving, obsolete or damaged inventory.

~~Note~~The 3Company uses the fair value method of accounting for share-based compensation arrangements. ~~Earnings~~ ~~(Loss)~~The ~~per~~fair ~~Share~~value ~~(“EPS”)~~of stock options is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. Stock-based compensation expense is reduced for estimated forfeitures and is amortized over the vesting period using the straight-line method.

Earnings (loss) per share are calculated in accordance with FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic net earnings (loss) per share are based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, but excluding shares issued as compensation that have not yet vested. Diluted net earnings (loss) per share are based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised, and that all unvested shares have vested. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.6

In April 2012, the Board of Directors adopted and the shareholders approved the Empowered Products, Inc. 2012 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights (none issued), restricted stock, and other stock awards, including short-term cash incentive awards (none issued). In addition, the Plan provides for the grant of restricted stock units of which none are currently issued. Awards granted under the Plan may be granted individually or in any combination. Stock options may not be granted at an exercise price less than the market value of our common stock on the date of grant and may be subsequently re-priced by the Plan Administrator without stockholder consent.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are calculated using the asset and liability method of accounting. Deferred income taxes are computed by multiplying statutory rates applicable to estimated future year differences between the financial statement and tax basis carrying amounts of assets and liabilities.

The Company has federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forwards of approximately $2,616,000 and $3,570,000 at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The federal net operating loss carry forwards begin to expire in 2024. A 34% statutory federal income tax rate was used for the calculation of the deferred tax asset. Management has established a valuation allowance equal to the estimated deferred tax asset due to uncertainties related to the ability to realize these tax assets. The valuation allowance decreased by approximately $325,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

The NOL carry forwards may be significantly limited under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) as a result of the Company’s merger on June 30, 2011. The limitation imposed by Section 382 would place an annual limitation on the amount of the NOL carry forwards that can be utilized. The Company has not performed any analysis of whether or not there has been a cumulative change in ownership of greater than 50%. If this analysis were completed and it was determined that there has been a change in ownership, the amount of the NOL carry forwards available may be reduced significantly. However, since the valuation allowance fully reserves for all available carry forwards, the effect of the reduction would be offset by a reduction in the valuation allowance. Thus, the resolution of this matter would have no effect on the reported assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses for the periods presented.

Three Months Ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 and 2012

~~Revenues~~Revenue for the three months ended ~~June~~ September 30, 2013 ~~were~~was approximately $1.35 million as compared to approximately $~~685~~771,000 in the comparable period in 2012. The 9398% increase in revenue was primarily due to new sales of Pink, Pink Water, Gunoil and Gunoil H2O to national retail chains throughout the United States. The major chain stores now carrying our lubricant products are Walgreens, CVS, Rite Aid, Kroger/Fred Meyer, HEB and Wal-Mart.

Cost of revenue primarily consists of costs related to the production and or purchase of products for sale. Cost of revenue for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 was approximately $~~483~~523,000 as compared to approximately $~~409~~333,000 in the comparable period in 2012. The increase in cost of ~~revenues~~revenue for the ~~three~~ three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2013 relative to the same period in 2012 was primarily due to increased sales to national retail chains and the resulting costs associated with those sales.

For the three months ended June 30, 2013, our gross profit increased by approximately $567,000 when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2012. The gross margin was 64% and 40% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The gross profit margin increase was attributable to sales made directly to retailers at our standard rates, based on our manufacturer suggested retail price as opposed to higher discounts made through our distribution channels. The percentage of sales to national retail chains during the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 were approximately 61% and 5% respectively. Additionally, increased production to meet the increased sales volume for our national retail chains resulted in lower unit costs and better gross profit.

Selling and distribution expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013 were approximately $261,000, or approximately 20% of revenues, compared to approximately $253,000, or 37% of revenues, for the same period in the prior year, an increase of 3%. The increase in selling and distribution expenses was primarily the result of an increase in marketing fees charged back from the national retail chains and increased freight expense.

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013 were approximately $269,000, or 19% of revenues, compared to approximately $280,000, or 41% of revenues, for the same period in the prior year, an 4% decrease. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to reduced legal and accounting fees.

No expense or benefit from income taxes was recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2013 or 2012. We do not expect any U.S. federal income taxes to be incurred for the current fiscal year because of available net operating loss carry forwards.

We had net income of approximately $309,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to net a net loss of approximately $262,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2012.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2013 were $2.2 million as compared to $1.5 million in the comparable period in 2012. The 44% increase in revenue was primarily due to new sales of Pink, Pink Water, Gunoil and Gunoil H2O to national retail chains throughout the United States.

Cost of revenue primarily consists of costs related to the production or purchase of products for sale. Cost of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was approximately $814,000 compared to approximately $694,000 in the comparable period in 2012. The increase in cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2013 relative to the same period in 2012 was primarily due to increased sales to national retail chains.

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, our gross profit increased to approximately $1.3 million from approximately $807,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012. During the same period, our gross profit margin increased to 62%, up from 54% in the six months ended June 30, 2012. The gross profit margin increase was attributable to sales made directly to retailers at our standard rates, based on our manufacturer suggested retail price as opposed to higher discounts made through our distribution channels. The percentage of sales to national retail chains during the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 were approximately 43% and 6% respectively. Additionally, increased production to meet the increased sales volume for our national retail chains resulted in lower unit costs and better gross profit.

Selling and distribution expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2013 were approximately $456,000, or 21% of revenues, compared to approximately $530,000, or 35% of revenues, for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of 14%. The decrease in selling and distribution expenses was primarily the result of reduced direct mail marketing during our first quarter of this year as compared to the same quarter in 2012.

General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2013 were approximately $848,000 or 39% of revenues, compared to approximately $519,000, or 35% of revenues, for the same period in the prior year, a 63% increase. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to approximately $278,000 in expenses related to the issuance of stock options to employees during the first quarter of 2013.

No expense or benefit from income taxes was recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2013 or 2012. We do not expect any U.S. federal or state income taxes to be recorded for the current fiscal year because of available net operating loss carryforwards.

We had net income of approximately $33,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared with a net loss of approximately $253,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of approximately $136,000 as of June 30, 2013, as compared to approximately $117,000 as of December 31, 2012.

We generally finance our activities through our business operations, with any shortfalls supplemented by our borrowings under a line of credit, contributions from our majority stockholder, or sales of equity securities. We have a line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank providing for borrowings of up to $500,000. As of June 30, 2013, we had borrowings of $390,688 outstanding under this line of credit. This line of credit is secured by our restricted cash balance which amounted to $561,740 at June 30, 2013.

The increase in selling and distribution expenses was primarily the result of an increase in marketing fees charged back from the national retail chains, increased freight expense and increased sales commissions.

General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 were approximately $1.2 million or 33% of revenue, compared to approximately $750,000, or 33% of revenue, for the same period in the prior year, a 61% increase. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to approximately $384,000 in expenses related to share based compensation during the first three quarters of 2013 and an increase of approximately $73,000 in investor relations for the same period.

No expense or benefit from income taxes was recorded in the nine months ended September 30, 2013 or 2012. We do not expect any U.S. federal or state income taxes to be recorded for the current fiscal year because of available net operating loss carry forwards.

We had net income of approximately $302,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared with a net loss of approximately $277,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of approximately $103,000 as of September 30, 2013, as compared to approximately $117,000 as of December 31, 2012.

We generally finance our activities through our business operations, with any shortfalls supplemented by our borrowings under a line of credit, contributions from our majority stockholder, or sales of equity securities. We have a line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank providing for borrowings of up to $500,000. As of September 30, 2013, we had no borrowings outstanding under this line of credit. This line of credit is secured by our restricted cash balance which amounted to $561,740 at September 30, 2013.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $340,000 as compared to net cash used in operating activities of approximately $662,000 for the comparable period in 2012. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities is primarily attributable to: net income being generated as opposed to net losses in the prior period; approximately $640,000 of non-cash expenses, of which approximately $574,000 related to stock compensation expenses; and an increase in accounts payable of approximately $432,000. These inflows were partially offset by: increases in prepayments and other assets of approximately $326,000; and extension of credit to its customers of approximately $365,000, net of deferred revenue.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, net cash used in investing activities was approximately $8,000, as compared to net cash used in investing activities of approximately $18,000 for the comparable period in 2012. The decrease in net cash used in investing activities is primarily attributable to reduced capital expenditures.

Net cash used in financing activities was approximately $346,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to net cash used in financing activities of approximately $69,000 for the comparable period in 2012. The increase in cash used in financing activities was primarily the result of the paydown of our line of credit.

Changes in our operating plans, lower than anticipated sales, increased expenses, acquisitions or other events may require us to seek additional debt or equity financing. There can be no guarantee that financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all. Debt financing, if available, could impose additional cash payment obligations and additional covenants and operating restrictions.

Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements

In August 2011, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase product sample packets of Gun Oil and PINK products. In connection with the agreement, the related party vendor provides the manufacturing equipment, machine operator, and management of production. The Company is required to make minimum monthly purchases of $5,880 pursuant to the agreement. ~~Through~~Since ~~June~~inception through September 30, 2013, the Company made purchases of approximately $~~135~~153,000 pursuant to the purchase obligation.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate these estimates and judgments, including those described below. We base our estimates on our historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates and assumptions form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates.

While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 3 to our audited financial statements included in the Annual Report, we believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results and affect the more significant judgments and estimates that we use in the preparation of our financial statements.

Revenue recognition

We recognize revenue when all significant contractual obligations, which involve the shipment of the products sold and reasonable assurance as to the collectability of the resulting account receivable, have been satisfied. Returns are permitted for damaged or unsalable items only. Revenue is shown after deductions for prompt payment, volume discounts and returns. We participate in various promotional activities in conjunction with our retailers and wholesalers, primarily through the use of discounts. The allowances for sales returns are established based on our estimate of the amounts necessary to settle future and existing obligations for such items on products sold as of the balance sheet date.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are carried at the outstanding amount due less an allowance for doubtful accounts, if an allowance is deemed necessary. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established when there is a basis to doubt the full collectability of the accounts receivable. We periodically evaluate our accounts receivable and determine the requirement for an allowance, based on its history of past write-offs, collections and current conditions. When an account receivable is ultimately determined to be uncollectible and due diligence for collection has taken place, the account receivable is written-off.

Inventory

Inventory consists primarily of raw materials and finished goods that we hold for sale in the ordinary course of business. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (determined on the first-in, first-out basis) or market. Other manufacturing overhead costs are also allocated to finished goods inventory. We periodically evaluate the composition of inventory and estimate an allowance to reduce inventory for slow moving, obsolete or damaged inventory.

Trademarks and other intangibles

The Company capitalizes fees in connection with the development of various product trademarks. These assets are considered indefinite lived intangible assets and are reviewed for impairment annually or when circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the trademark may not be fully recoverable. An impairment loss would be recorded if the carrying amount of the indefinite lived intangible asset exceeds its estimated fair value. Other intangibles consisted of customer lists acquired in 2011. Other intangible assets are amortized over their useful lives ranging from 2 to 5 years.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company’s incentive compensation plan allows the Company to grant awards to employees, directors, and consultants in the form of stock options, stock awards, warrants, restricted stock units, and stock appreciation rights. Compensation related to these awards is determined based on the fair value on the date of grant and is amortized to expense over the vesting period. For warrants granted to non-employees, the Company recognizes compensation expense as the performance or services are completed. For restricted stock units, the Company recognizes compensation expense based on the earlier of the vesting date or the date when the employee becomes eligible to retire.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not required for a smaller reporting company.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, which are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and our Controller, our principal accounting and financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on an evaluation carried out as of the end of the period ~~covered~~ covered by this quarterly report, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) were ineffective as of ~~June~~September 30, 2013 due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

In our Annual Report, our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, management believes that as of December 31, 2012, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on those criteria because of the existence of material weaknesses. The specific deficiencies contributing to these material weaknesses related to (a) ineffective procedures and controls over reserves and allowances, (b) inadequate segregation of duties, (c) inadequate reporting processes in relation to the consolidation of our subsidiary’s financial information, (d) an inadequate number of independent board members and lack of an independent audit committee, and (e) an insufficient complement of personnel with appropriate levels of knowledge and experience. Due to the actual and potential errors on financial statement balances and disclosures, management has concluded that these deficiencies in internal controls over the period-end financial close and reporting processes constituted a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting.

In March of 2013, management retained an outside, independent financial consultant to review all financial data, as well as help us prepare our financial reports, in order to mitigate these weaknesses. This created a position whereby certain aspects of the operations became more segregated, which is consistent with our control objectives and increased our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function. We also plan to appoint one or more outside directors to our board of directors who shall be appointed to an audit committee resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures such as reviewing and approving estimates and assumptions made by management when funds are available to us. Management believes that the appointment of one or more outside directors, who shall be appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, will remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our Board. We anticipate that these initiatives will be at least partially, if not fully, implemented by December 31, 2013.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
