NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

THE NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Repro-Med Systems, Inc. (the "Company") designs, manufactures and markets proprietary medical devices primarily for the ambulatory infusion market and emergency medical applications. The FDA regulates these products.  We use the d/b/a (doing business as) name RMS Medical Products, and incorporate RMS part of the branding of some products.  The Company is ISO 13485 certified.

 

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements as of May 31, 2014, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in accordance with instructions to regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial presentation.

 

In the opinion of the Company's management, the financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of May 31, 2014, and the results of operations and cash flow for the three-month periods ended May 31, 2014, and 2013.

 

The results of operations for the three months ended May 31, 2014, and 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto of the Company and management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations included in the Company's Annual Report for the year ended February 28, 2014, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K.

 

EMPLOYEE STOCK AWARDS


In July 2012, 1,465,000 shares were authorized to issue to employees as share compensation valued at $0.18 per share, the market value on the date of the board authorization.  The value of these shares will be amortized into operations over the one to two year restriction on the shares. Amortization amounted to $25,875 and $41,175 for the three-months ended May 31, 2014, and May 31, 2013, respectively.


CONSULTING AGREEMENT WITH DIRECTOR


On December 20, 2013, we executed an agreement effective March 1, 2014, with a Company director, Dr. Mark Baker, to provide clinical research and support services related to new and enhanced applications for the FREEDOM60® Syringe Infusion System.  Authorized by the Board of Directors, the agreement provides for payment of 420,000 shares of common stock valued at $0.20 per share over a three-year period.  Amortization amounted to $7,000 for the three-months ended May 31, 2014.


USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Important estimates include but are not limited to, asset lives, valuation allowances, inventory and accruals.

 

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


We commenced a declaratory judgment action in 2013 to establish the invalidity and non-infringement of claims of a patent of a competitor that alleged that our needle sets would infringe. The defendant answered the complaint and asserted various counterclaims that we believe are without merit. We subsequently added claims against the defendant to show that the defendant had engaged in various unfair business practices. The litigation is in early stage discovery.


SUBSEQUENT EVENTS EVALUATION

 

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through July 15, 2014, the date on which the financial statements were issued.  There were no material subsequent events that required recognition or additional disclosure in these financial statements.


EMERGING ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

 

Management does not believe that any of the standards adopted by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, but are not yet effective, will have a material effect on the Company's financial reporting.

 

LEASED AIRCRAFT

 

The Company leases an aircraft from a company controlled by the president. The lease payments aggregated were $5,375 for the three-months ended May 31, 2014 and 2013. The original lease agreement has expired and the Company is currently on a month-to-month basis for rental payments.
