Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries and the accounts of its subsidiaries for which it was determined that Company has operational and management control. The Company’s consolidated subsidiaries and/or entities are as follows:

Name of consolidated subsidiary or entity	State or other jurisdiction of incorporation or organization	Date of incorporation or formation (date of acquisition/disposition, if applicable)	Attributable interest at September 30, 2019			Attributable interest at September 30, 2020
Psoria-Shield Inc. (“PSI”)	The State of Florida	June 2009 (August 2012)		100	%		51	% (1)
StealthCo, Inc. (“StealthCo”)	The State of Illinois	March 2014		100	%		100	%
Psoria Development Company LLC. (“PDC”)	The State of Illinois	January 2015/November 2018		0	%		0	%
NEO Phototherapy LLC (“NEO”)	The State of Illinois	December 2018		51	% (1)		0	%
Protec Scientific, Inc (“Protec”)	The State of New York	April 2020		0	%		38	%

(1) - Effective April 30, 2020, the Company's 51% interest in NEO was converted into a 51% interest in PSI.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the financial statement date, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates are used in the valuation of accounts receivable and allowance for uncollectible amounts, inventory and obsolescence reserves, accruals for potential liabilities, valuations of stock-based compensation, and realization of deferred tax assets, among others. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued. For the years ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the basic and diluted shares outstanding were the same, as potentially dilutive shares were considered anti-dilutive. At September 30, 2020 and 2019, the dilutive impact of outstanding stock options of 14,127,738 and 15,237,738 shares, respectively, and outstanding warrants for 67,634,049 and 66,484,049 shares, respectively, have been excluded because their impact on the loss per share is anti-dilutive.

Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted this ASU on October 1, 2018 retrospectively, the cumulative effect of the initial application on our accumulated deficit on that date was immaterial.

For trade sales, the Company generates its revenue from sales contracts with customers with revenues being generated upon the shipment of merchandise, or for consulting services, revenue is recognized in the period services are rendered and earned under service arrangements with clients.

We sell our products through two main sales channels: 1) directly to customers who use our products (the “Direct Channel”) and 2) to distribution partners who resell our products (the “Indirect Channel”).

Under the Direct Channel, we sell our products to and we receive payment directly from customers who purchase our products. Under our Indirect Channel, we have entered into distribution agreements that allow the distributors to sell our products and fulfill performance obligations under the agreements.

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

●

Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer

●

Identification of the performance obligations in the contract

●

Determination of the transaction price

●

Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

●

Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

Revenue is generally recognized upon shipment or when a service has been completed, unless we have significant performance obligations for services still to be completed. We recognize revenue when a material reversal is no longer probable. Payments received before the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as deferred revenue. There was no deferred revenue at September 30, 2020 and 2019.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is computed on a first-in, first-out basis. At September 30, 2020, primarily all of the inventories totaling to $94,560 consisted of raw materials or work-in-progress. The Company provides inventory reserves based on excess and obsolete inventories determined primarily by future demand forecasts. The write down amount, if any, is measured as the difference between the cost of the inventory and market based upon assumptions about future demand and charged to the provision for inventory, which is a component of cost of sales. At the point of the loss recognition, a new, lower cost basis for that inventory is established, and subsequent changes in facts and circumstances do not result in the restoration or increase in that newly established cost basis. At September 30, 2020, no reserve was recorded for slow moving and obsolete inventory.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The total cost of property and equipment at September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $106,720, and total accumulated depreciation at September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $106,720 and $105,158, respectively. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The Company has determined the estimated useful lives of its property and equipment, as follows:

Computer equipment	5 years
Medical equipment	5 years
Furniture and fixtures	7 years
Vehicles	3 years
Software	3 years

Depreciation expense for the years ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $1,562 and $1,057, respectively.

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. The cost and accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise disposed of are removed from the related accounts and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in the statements of operations.

Management assesses the carrying value of property and equipment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. If there is indication of impairment, management prepares an estimate of future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If these cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized to write down the asset to its estimated fair value.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense is based on pretax financial accounting income. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts. Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that will more likely than not be realized. The Company recorded a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2020 and 2019.

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes using a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement. The Company classifies the liability for unrecognized tax benefits as current to the extent that the Company anticipates payment (or receipt) of cash within one year. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recognized in the provision for income taxes.

Fair Value measurements

The Company determines the fair value of its assets and liabilities based on the exchange price in U.S. dollars that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company uses a fair value hierarchy with three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, to measure fair value:

	●	Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
	●	Level 2 — Inputs, other than Level 1, that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
	●	Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The carrying amounts of financial instruments such as cash, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate the related fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The carrying value of the loans payable from officers and shareholders approximate their fair value based on the fair market interest rates of these obligations.

Non-controlling Interests

PDC

Through November 2018, non-controlling interest represented the non-controlling interest holder’s proportionate share of the equity of the Company’s majority-owned subsidiary, PDC. Non-controlling interest is adjusted for the non-controlling interest holder’s proportionate share of the earnings or losses and other comprehensive income (loss), if any, and the non-controlling interest continues to be attributed its share of losses even if that attribution results in a deficit non-controlling interest balance.

On November 15, 2018, PSI and TMA entered into a Withdraw and Mutual Release Agreement to terminate their joint venture agreement. On the date of termination, the non-controlling interest’s share of the accumulated losses of the joint venture totaled to $405,383. Upon termination, during the year ended September 30, 2019, the Company wrote-off the non-controlling interest’s share of the accumulated losses and recorded a loss from the deconsolidation of a non-controlling interest of $405,383.

PSI

In December 2018, PSI entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with GEN2 to further development, marketing, licensing and/or sale of PSI technology and products. Pursuant to the Joint Venture Agreement, the venture will be conducted through NEO Phototherapy, Inc. (“NEO”). PSI and GEN2 will be the members of NEO, owning 50.5% and 36.0%, respectively, of the Units issued in connection with the organization of NEO. An additional 13.5% of such Units will be reserved for issuance as incentives for key employees and consultants. Until such shares are distributed, the Company controls 68% of the joint venture and GEN2 the remaining 32%. PSI and GEN2 will manage NEO’s day-to-day operations. PSI will contribute PSI technology to NEO and GEN2 will contribute $700,000. As of December 31, 2019, NEO’s operations required additional funding above the $700,000 documented in the agreement, and as of September 30, 2019, GEN2 had received $925,000 of investments to contribute to NEO. During the year ended September 30, 2020, an additional $50,000 was contributed by GEN2 to NEO. As of September 30, 2020, GEN2 had received $975,000 of investments to contribute to NEO. As of April 30, 2020, the Company controlled 51% of the joint venture, GEN2 controlled 39% and another individual controlled the remaining 10%. The Company recorded its proportionate share of the contributions received of $497,250 to additional paid-in-capital and $477,750 to non-controlling interest as of September 30, 2019.

Effective April 30, 2020, the joint venture with GEN2 was reorganized. GEN2 shareholders exchanged their common shares in GEN2, and the individual exchanged his membership interests in NEO, for common shares representing 49% ownership in PSI. The Company retained its common shares in PSI, which provides the Company a 51% economic interest in the PSI technology and products developed by the joint venture. During year ended September 30, 2020, the entities recorded a combined loss of $333,809 relating to its operations, of which $163,556 was allocated to the non-controlling interest.

Repayment of the $975,000 investment will begin through and upon the date which PSI has realized and retained cumulative net income/distributable cash in the amount of $300,000. The minority interest of PSI ownership consists of accredited investors, and investment participation of $750,000 from several WCUI officers and directors, including Calvin R. O’Harrow and Roy M. Harsch.

In May 2020, the Company’s subsidiary, PSI, agreed to become a majority shareholder in Protec Scientific, Inc. (“Protec”), a company formed in April 2020 by John Yorke for the purpose of designing, developing and marketing products that use spectral photonic emissions across a variety of applications. As of September 30, 2020, PSI had advanced $191,000 to Protec in furtherance of its agreement to acquire approximately 62% of Protec, with the Company’s share being approximately 32%, based on its PSI ownership. The remaining 30% share is to be attributed to PSI’s minority shareholders, based on their PSI ownership. During the year ended September 30, 2020, Protec received an additional $120,000 from non-affiliated investors, of which $74,400 was recorded to additional paid-in capital and $45,600 to the non-controlling interests. The additional investments gave the non-controlling interests a 38% ownership interest in Protec. During the year ended September 30, 2020, Protec recorded a loss of $172,174, of which $117,732 was allocated to the non-controlling interests.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company periodically issues stock-based compensation to officers, directors, and consultants for services rendered, and as part of financing transactions. Such issuances vest and expire according to terms established at the issuance date. Stock-based payments to officers, directors, employees, and for acquiring goods and services from non-employees, which include grants of employee stock options, are recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values in accordance with Topic 718. Stock option grants, which are generally time vested, will be measured at the grant date fair value and charged to operations on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

The fair value of the Company’s common stock option and warrant grants are estimated using a Black-Scholes Merton option pricing model, which uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the common stock options, estimated forfeitures and future dividends. Compensation expense is recorded based upon the value derived from the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and based on actual experience. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes Merton option pricing model could materially affect compensation expense recorded in future periods.

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to record a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than twelve months. ASU 2016-02 is effective for all interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements.

The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 effective October 1, 2019. As a result, we recorded a right-of-use asset of $27,841, and a lease liability of the same amount, as of that date. In accordance with ASU 2016-02, the right-of-use asset is being amortized over the life of the underlying lease, and monthly lease payments are being recorded as reductions to the lease liability and imputed interest expense. See Note 6 for additional information.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Credit Losses - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASC 326”). The standard significantly changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets, including accounts and notes receivables. The standard will replace today’s “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model, under which companies will recognize allowances based on expected rather than incurred losses. Entities will apply the standard’s provisions as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.
