Helius Medical Technologies, Inc.
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

1.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Helius Medical Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) is engaged primarily in the medical technology industry focused on neurological wellness. The Company’s planned principal operations include the development, licensing and acquisition of unique and non-invasive platform technologies to amplify the brain’s ability to heal itself. To date the Company has not generated any revenue.

The Company was incorporated in British Columbia, Canada, on March 13, 2014. On May 28, 2014, the Company completed a continuation via a plan of arrangement whereby the Company moved from being a corporation governed by the British Columbia Corporations Act to a corporation governed by the Wyoming Business Corporations Act. The Company’s head office is located in Newtown, Pennsylvania.

The Company has two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Neurohabilitation Corporation (“Neuro”) and Helius Medical Technologies (Canada), Inc. (“Helius Canada”).

The Company is currently listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”). The Company began trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange on June 23, 2014, under the ticker symbol “HSM”, and subsequently moved to the TSX on April 18, 2016. The Company also began trading on the OTCQB under the ticker symbol “HSDT” on February 10, 2015. The financial information is presented in United States Dollars.

Going Concern

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of continuity of operations, realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The Company has incurred a net loss of $3,084,424 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and, as of June 30, 2016, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $29,389,687. The Company has not generated any product revenues and has not achieved profitable operations. Until the Company generates a level of revenue to support its cost structure, the Company expects to continue to incur substantial operating losses and net cash outflows. There is no assurance that profitable operations will ever be achieved, and, if achieved, will be sustained on a continuing basis.

While the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $7,973,437 as of June 30, 2016, management does not believe these resources will be sufficient to meet the Company’s operating and capital needs through the end of its fiscal year ended March 31, 2017.

The Company intends to fund ongoing activities by utilizing current cash and cash equivalents and by raising additional capital through equity or debt financings. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising additional capital or that such capital, if available, will be on terms that are acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to raise sufficient additional capital, the Company may be compelled to reduce the scope of its operations and planned capital expenditure or sell certain assets, including intellectual property assets. This material uncertainty gives rise to substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Revision of Prior Period Financial Statements

In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, the Company revised and corrected the accounting for stock compensation expense related to certain non-employee awards for prior interim periods in fiscal year 2016. The Company evaluated the materiality of this revision and concluded that it was not material to any of the previously issued financial statements. However, had this not been revised, the accounting may have resulted in a material misstatement to the financial statements for the full year fiscal 2016. Accordingly, the Company revised previously reported periods included in Form 10-Q for the quarters ended June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2015. The Company will revise all other previously reported periods as such financial information is included in future filings.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Helius Medical Technologies, Inc. are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, applicable to interim periods and, in the opinion of management, include all normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary to state fairly the results of operations for the reported periods. Our condensed consolidated financial statements have also been prepared on a basis substantially consistent with, and should be read in conjunction with, our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2016, which were included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on June 28, 2016. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from our audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The results of our operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of our operations for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the operations of Helius Medical Technologies, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“ U.S. GAAP” requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the assumptions used in the fair value pricing model for share-based payment transactions and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. Financial statements include estimates which, by their nature, are uncertain. Actual outcomes could differ from these estimates.

Principles of Consolidation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements include all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s interim financial information.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at banks and on hand, and short-term highly liquid investments that have an insignificant interest rate risk and an original maturity of 3 months or less.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company is subject to credit risk in respect of its cash. Amounts invested in such instruments are limited by credit rating, maturity, industry group, investment type and issuer. The Company is not currently exposed to any significant concentrations of credit risk from these financial instruments. The Company seeks to maintain safety and preservation of principal and diversification of risk, liquidity of investments sufficient to meet cash flow requirements and a competitive after-tax rate of return.

Receivables

Accounts receivable are stated at their net realizable value. At June 30, 2016, the accounts receivable balance consisted primarily of GST and QST refunds as well as reimbursements from the US army related to the Company’s expenditures.

Stock-Based Compensation

9


The Company accounts for all stock-based payments and awards under the fair value based method. The Company recognizes its stock-based compensation using the straight line method.

Stock-based payments to non-employees are measured at the fair value of the consideration received, or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, or liabilities incurred, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value of stock-based payments to non-employees is periodically re-measured until the counterparty performance is complete, and any change therein is recognized over the vesting period of the award and in the same manner as if the Company had paid cash instead of paying with or using equity based instruments. The fair value of the stock-based payments to non-employees that are fully vested and non-forfeitable as at the grant date are measured and recognized at that date.

The Company accounts for the granting of share purchase options to employees using the fair value method whereby all awards to employees will be measured at fair value on the date of the grant. The fair value of all share purchase options are expensed over their vesting period with a corresponding increase to additional capital surplus. Upon exercise of share purchase options, the consideration paid by the option holder, together with the amount previously recognized in additional paid-in capital is recorded as an increase to share capital. Share purchase options granted to employees are accounted for as liabilities when they contain conditions or other features that are indexed to other than a market, performance or service condition.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair value of share purchase options. The use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires management to make assumptions with respect to the expected term of the option, the expected volatility of the common stock consistent with the expected term of the option, risk-free interest rates, the value of the common stock and expected dividend yield of the common stock. Changes in these assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate.

Foreign Exchange

The functional currency of the Company and Helius Canada is the Canadian dollar (“CAD”) and the functional currency of Neuro is the U.S. dollar (“USD”). The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Transactions in foreign currencies are remeasured into the functional currency of the relevant subsidiary at the exchange rate in effect at the date of the transaction. Any monetary assets and liabilities arising from these transactions are translated into the functional currency at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date or on settlement. Resulting gains and losses are recorded in other foreign exchange gain (loss) within the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The foreign exchange adjustment in the books of Neuro relating to inter-company advances from Helius that are denominated in Canadian dollars is recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, there was a foreign exchange gain of $219,322 and for the three months ended June 30, 2015 there was a foreign exchange loss of $81,425 recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

The Company has adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740 Income Taxes regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The Company initially recognizes tax provisions in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions are initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of the tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority, assuming full knowledge of the position and all relevant facts. Application requires numerous estimates based on available information. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and tax benefits. These periodic adjustments may have a material impact on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. When applicable, the Company classifies penalties and interest associated with uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense in its consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Research and Development Expenses

10


Research and development (“R&D”) expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, including salaries, benefits and stock-based compensation, clinical studies performed by contract research organizations and materials and supplies. R&D costs are charged to operations when they are incurred.

Segment Information

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company, through its chief operating decision maker, views its operations and manages the business in one segment.

Derivative Liabilities

The Company evaluates its financial instruments and other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging. The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the derivative is marked-to-market at each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability and the change in fair value is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity.

The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is reassessed at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instruments that become subject to reclassification are reclassified at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date. Derivative instrument liabilities will be classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not settlement of the derivative instrument is expected within 12 months of the consolidated balance sheet date.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The book values of these instruments approximate their fair values due to the immediate or short-term nature of those instruments.

ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used 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; and

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. To the extent that the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company had certain Level 3 derivative liabilities required to be recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP as at June 30, 2016 and 2015. Unobservable inputs used in the valuation of these liabilities includes volatility of the underlying share price and the expected term. See Note 3. for the inputs used in the Black Scholes model at June 30, 2016 and the rollforward of the warrant liability and see Note 4. for the inputs used in the Black Scholes model at June 30, 2016 and 2015 for the rollforward of the derivative liability for non-employee options.

Basic and Diluted Income (Loss) per Share

Earnings or loss per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average of all potentially dilutive shares of common stock that were outstanding during the periods presented.

The treasury stock method is used in calculating diluted EPS for potentially dilutive stock options and share purchase warrants, which assumes that any proceeds received from the exercise of in-the-money stock options and share purchase warrants, would be used to purchase common shares at the average market price for the period.

EPS for convertible debt is calculated under the “if-converted” method. Under the if-converted method, EPS is calculated as the more dilutive of EPS (i) including all interest (both cash interest and non-cash discount amortization) and excluding all shares underlying the convertible debt or; (ii) excluding all interest and costs directly related to the convertible debt (both cash interest and non-cash discount amortization) and including all shares underlying the convertible debt.

The basic and diluted loss per share for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 were calculated as follows:

    Three Months Ended  
    June 30, 2016     June 30, 2015  
   $    $  
             
             
Net loss, basic and diluted   (3,084,424 )   (2,554,367 )

The following outstanding securities for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 have been excluded from the computation of diluted weighted shares outstanding, as they would have been anti-dilutive:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The amendments in this update change existing guidance related to accounting for employee share-based payments affecting the income tax consequences of awards, classification of awards as equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of this standard.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the consolidated income statement. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of this standard.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The amendments in this update revise the accounting related to the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities and the presentation of certain fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of this standard.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, which is intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or within one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued when applicable) and to provide related footnote disclosures. The ASU provides guidance to an organization’s management, with principles and definitions that are intended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of disclosures that are commonly provided by organizations today in the financial statement footnotes. The ASU is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, which for the Company is April 1, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

The amendments also clarify that the guidance in Topic 275, Risks and Uncertainties, is applicable to entities that have not commenced planned principal operations. The central feature of the guidance on disclosure requirements is that required disclosures are limited to matters significant to a particular entity. The disclosures focus primarily on risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect the amounts reported in the financial statements in the near term or the near-term functioning of the reporting entity.

The Company incurred other cash issuance costs of USD $1,238,566 related to this offering.

On May 2, 2016, the Company closed the sale of the additional units issued pursuant to the exercise of the over-allotment option (“Over-Allotment Option”) granted to the Agent in connection with the Offering.

The warrants issued in each of the April 18, 2016 and May 2, 2016 closings are classified within equity. The proceeds from the Offering were allocated on a relative fair value basis between the Class A common shares and the warrants issued. The compensation options are accounted for as warrants. These warrants represent additional share issuance costs and are recorded within equity at their fair value. The fair value of both the warrants and the compensation options was determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.

The fair value of the warrants granted during the three months ended June 30, 2016 was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

  June 30, 2016
   
Stock price $1.09 CAD
Exercise Price $1.50 CAD
Expected life 3.0 years
Expected volatility 83.83%
Risk – free interest rate 0.60%
Dividend rate 0.00%

The fair value of the compensation options granted during the three months ended June 30, 2016 was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

  June 30, 2016
   
Stock price $1.36 CAD
Exercise Price $1.00 CAD
Expected life 2.0 years
Expected volatility 126.76%
Risk – free interest rate 0.61%
Dividend rate 0.00%

On June 6, 2016, the Company announced that it received proceeds of CAD $1,825,600 from the exercise of 1,825,600 outstanding warrants which were issued in connection with the Company’s private placement of subscription receipts that closed on May 30, 2014. The remaining 6,604,400 warrants issued in this offering expired unexercised.

Pursuant to the guidance of ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging, the Company determined that all of the warrants issued during the year ended March 31, 2016 as described above are required to be accounted for as liabilities because they are considered not to be indexed to the Company’s stock due to the exercise price being denominated in a currency other than the Company’s functional currency. Consequently, the Company determined the fair value of each warrant issuance using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, with the remainder of the proceeds allocated to the common shares.

The warrants having an exercise price denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the Company that are required to be accounted for as liabilities are summarized as follows for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015:

Three months ended

The warrants are required to be re-valued with the change in fair value of the liability recorded as a gain or loss in the change of fair value of derivative liability, included in other income (expense) in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss at the end of each reporting period. The fair value of the warrants will continue to be classified as a liability until such time as they are exercised, expire or there is an amendment to the respective agreements that renders these financial instruments to be no longer classified as a liability.

The fair value of liability classified warrants outstanding as of June 30, 2016 were estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

  June 30, 2016
Stock price $1.11
Exercise Price $1.62

Included in the table above are non-employee awards that are subject to remeasurement each reporting period until vested. As a result, the grant date fair value is not representative of the total expense that will be recorded for these awards. As of June 30, 2016, the unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options outstanding, was $240,993 to be recognized over a weighted-average remaining vesting period of approximately 2.02 years. The Company recognizes compensation expense for only the portion of awards that are expected to vest. For the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company applied an expected forfeiture rate of 0% based on its historical experience.

Non-Employee Stock Options

In accordance with the guidance of ASC 815-40-15, stock options awarded to non-employees that are performing services for Neuro are required to be accounted for as derivative liabilities once the services have been performed and the options have vested because they are considered not to be indexed to the Company’s stock due to their exercise price being denominated in a currency other than Neuro’s functional currency. Stock options awarded to non-employees that are not vested are re-measured at their respective fair values at each reporting period and accounted for as equity awards until the terms associated with their vesting requirements have been met. The changes in fair value of the unvested non-employee awards are reflected in their respective operating expense classification in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

The non-employee stock options that are required to be accounted for as liabilities are summarized as follows for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015:

Fair value of non-employee options, end of the period 1,188,770 1,846,083

The non-employee options that have vested are required to be re-valued with the change in fair value of the liability recorded as a gain or loss on the change of fair value of derivative liability and included in other items in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss at the end of each reporting period. The fair value of the options will continue to be classified as a liability until such time as they are exercised, expire or there is an amendment to the respective agreements that renders these financial instruments to be no longer classified as a liability.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES


(a)

On January 22, 2013, the Company entered into a license agreement with ANR for an exclusive right on ANR’s patent pending technology, claims and knowhow. In addition to the issuance of 16,035,026 shares, the Company agreed to pay a 4% royalty on net revenue on the sales of devices covered by the patent-pending technology and services related to the therapy or use of devices covered by the patent-pending technology. The Company has not made any royalty payments to date under this agreement.

   
(b)

On March 7, 2014, the Company entered into a commercial development-to-supply program with Ximedica, LLC (“Ximedica”) where Ximedica will design, develop and produce PoNS™ product solution suitable for clinical trial and commercial sale. Under the program, the Company is responsible for ensuring the device is in compliance with relevant laws and regulations. The agreed budget for phase 1B of development is $499,000; phase 2 is $1,065,000; Phase 3 and 4 is $1,389,000 and 2nd software development cycle is $586,000, of which $5,414,111 was expensed as research and development since inception to June 30, 2016.

18



Invoices are to be issued monthly for work in progress. The Company can cancel the project at any time with a written notice at least 30 days prior to the intended date of cancellation. The Company recorded a prepaid expense of $274,000 to Ximedica for the upcoming clinical build of the PoNS™ device. As of June 30, 2016, the Company has expensed $154,626 of the $274,000 prepayment. As of June 30, 2016, the Company had also recorded a $300,000 project initiation deposit which will be applied once the development-to-supply program has been completed. During the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company incurred R&D charges of $222,743 and $818,020 pursuant to this agreement.

   
(c)

On January 27, 2015, the Company received a demand letter containing allegations that it had entered into a consulting arrangement with the complainants and breached certain of its terms, and used certain intellectual property in the form of business and marketing plans allegedly prepared by the complainants, and seeking damages. On May 7, 2015, Mr. Rainier Maas and Dr. Jochen Scheld filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania seeking monetary damages in excess of $225,000. On December 2, 2015 the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the plaintiffs for an amount of €57,000 which was subsequently paid on January 12, 2016. The parties have since executed the settlement agreement for the aforementioned amount and the case has been dismissed without prejudice.

   
(d)

On January 5, 2015, Wicab Inc. (“Wicab”) filed a complaint against the Company, NHC, its director Mitchell Tyler, and its former director Yuri Danilov, and ANR in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin. The complaint contained various state and common law claims arising from Messrs. Danilov’s and Tyler’s prior employment with Wicab and the Company’s two issued patents for the PoNS™ device. The complaint alleged, among other things, that following their departure from Wicab, Messrs. Danilov and Tyler knowingly filed patent applications for and used ideas and inventions developed at Wicab in violation of various non-competition and confidentiality agreements, and that the Company’s two issued patents are therefore rightfully the property of Wicab. The complaint sought an unspecified amount of monetary damages, an injunction preventing the Company from using the ideas and inventions in the two patents, an order transferring ownership of the patents from the Company to Wicab, and recovery of costs and attorneys’ fees. The complaint was voluntarily dismissed without prejudice on January 14, 2015.

   

On October 12, 2015, the Company received a letter from Wicab alleging that the two issued patents were invalid in view of prior art cited in the letter, including scientific publications and patent applications, and that Paul Bach-y-Rita, Wicab’s founder, should have been named as an inventor on these two issued patents. Wicab indicated in the letter that it may file reexamination or inter partes review proceedings with the U.S. Patent Office to attempt to invalidate the claims in the two issued patents. Wicab also stated that it would consider an unspecified “business solution” to resolve this matter. On December 10, 2015, representatives of each of the Company and Wicab met to discuss the parameters of a potential settlement. There can be no guarantee that a settlement will be reached. In the event that a settlement with Wicab is not reached, Wicab may file reexamination or inter partes review proceedings with the U.S. Patent Office to challenge the validity of the two issued patents. If the Company receives an adverse decision from the U.S. Patent Office in connection with these proceedings, some or all of the claims in the two patents may be invalidated or otherwise impaired, which could prevent the Company from bringing an infringement suit against a future competitor for making use of the PoNS™ technology for neurorehabilitation, and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition. Wicab may also take other actions against the Company, its assets, intellectual property rights, officers, directors, employees, agents or other persons or entities which may also have a material effect on the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition. The Company believes that the possibility of an economic outlay is remote.

   
(e)

Under the Company’s Asset Purchase Agreement with A&B, if the Company fails to obtain FDA clearance for commercialization of or otherwise fails to ensure that the PoNS™ device is available for purchase by the U.S. Government by December 31, 2017, the Company is subject to a US$2,000,000 contract penalty payable to A&B, unless the Company receives an exemption for the requirement of FDA clearance from the US Army Medical Material Agency. The Company has determined that the possibility of an economic outlay under this contractual penalty is remote.

   
(f)

In November 2014, the Company signed a development and distribution agreement with the Altair company in Russia to apply for registration and distribute the PoNS™ device in the territories of the former Soviet Union. However, there is no assurance that such commercialization will occur.

Results of Operations

Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

The following table summarizes our results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015:

    Three Months Ended June 30,        
    2016     2015     Change  
Revenue $  -   $  -   $  -

Revenues

During the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, we did not generate any revenues.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses were $653,883 for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $1,520,824 for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease of $866,941was primarily attributable to a decrease in the Company’s activities as it prepares for the extra clinical build with Ximedica.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses were $1,449,981for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $1,464,849 for the three months ended June 30, 2015.

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense, net was nil for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to $53 for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease in interest expense of $53 was primarily attributable to the fact that no interest-bearing instruments were used or issued in the relevant periods.

23


Other Income

Other income was $109,500 for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to nil for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The increase of 109,500 was primarily attributable to an increase in the sale of prototype PoNSTM devices to various trial sites.

Change in fair value of derivative liability

The change in fair value of derivative liability was a loss of $1,309,382 for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to a gain of $512,784 for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The change in fair value of derivative liability is attributable to the change in our stock price during the year, as this is an input to the black-scholes option pricing model that is used to re-measure the derivative liability at each reporting period. The derivative liabilities do not represent cash liabilities.

Foreign exchange

Foreign exchange gain was $219,322 as compared to a loss of $81,425 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. This is primarily due to the fluctuations in foreign exchange given the amount of Canadian dollars held at the end of each reporting period.

Statement of Cash Flows

Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2015

The following table summarizes our cash flows for each of the periods presented:

    Three Months Ended June 30,

During the three months ended June 30, 2016, our net cash increased by $5,329,500, which included net cash used in operating activities of $2,368,629 stemming from our increase in operations, net cash provided by investing activities of nil and net cash provided by financing activities of $7,791,671 stemming mainly from the closing of the Offering and the Over-Allotment Option.

During the three months ended June 30, 2015, our net cash increased by $552,970, which included net cash used in operating activities of $2,146,000 stemming from our increase in operations, net cash provided by investing activities of $378,000 stemming from the closing of a number of short-term investment accounts and net cash provided by financing activities of $2,394,684 stemming mainly from the closing of multiple private placements. The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates for the period was $(73,714).

Cash Used in Operating Activities

Operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2016 used cash of $2,368,629. This was made up of a net loss of $3,084,424 less adjustments for non-cash items such as change in fair value of derivative liability of $1,309,382, stock based compensation of $276,730, receivables of ($133,253), accounts payable and accrued expenses of ($648,973), and prepaid expenses and other current assets of ($88,091). Receivables increased due to the higher amount of refundable Canadian commodity tax, the Company’s reimbursements from the USAMRC, and the sale of some prototype devices. Prepaid expenses and payables increased due to our increase in operations.

Operating activities in the three months ended June 30, 2015 used cash of $2,146,000. This was made up of a net loss of $2,554,367 less adjustments for non-cash items such as change in fair value of derivative liability of ($512,784), stock based compensation of $460,138, receivables of ($15,264), accounts payable of $382,844, prepaid expenses of ($22,205) and foreign exchange on remeasurement of $115,638. Receivables increased due to the higher amount of refundable Canadian commodity tax. Payables and prepaid expenses increased due to our increase in operations.

Cash Provided by Investing Activities

24


During the three months ended June 30, 2016, cash provided by investing activities totaled nil.

During the three months ended June 30, 2015, cash provided by investing activities totaled $378,000. This was made up of the closing of a number of interest-bearing short-term investment accounts held.

Cash Provided by Financing Activities

During the three months ended June 30, 2016, financing activities provided cash of $7,791,671. Financing activities during the three months ended June 30, 2016 consisted of: issuance of common stock and warrants of $7,902,911 stemming from the Offering and the Over-Allotment Option, proceeds from the exercise of warrants of $1,397,679, less issuance costs related to the Offering of ($1,508,920).

During the three months ended June 30, 2015, financing activities provided cash of $2,394,684. Financing activities during the three month period ended June 30, 2015, consisted of: issuance of common stock and warrants of $2,519,561 stemming from multiple private placements, less share issuance costs of $124,877.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, does not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation.

The following table sets out our cash and working capital as of June 30, 2016 and 2015:

    June 30, 2016     June 30, 2015  
Cash and cash equivalents $  7,973,437   $  971,863  
Working capital (deficit) $ 4,756,108   $  (153,160 )

Our cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2016 were $7,973,437. To date we have not generated any revenue from the commercial sales of products or services. There are a number of conditions that we must satisfy before we will be able to generate revenue, including but not limited to successful completion of the clinical trial, FDA clearance of the PoNS™ device for treating balance disorder associated with mild to moderate TBI, manufacturing of a commercially-viable version of the PoNS™ device and demonstration of effectiveness sufficient to generate commercial orders by customers for our product. While we are currently seeking additional funding, we do not currently have sufficient resources to accomplish any of these conditions necessary for us to generate revenue. We will therefore require substantial additional funds in order to continue to conduct the research and development and regulatory clearance and approval activities necessary to bring our product to market, to establish effective marketing and sales capabilities and to develop other product candidates.

The Company intends to fund ongoing activities by utilizing current cash and cash equivalents and by raising additional capital through equity or debt financings. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising additional capital or that such capital, if available, will be on terms that are acceptable to the Company. If the Company is unable to raise sufficient additional capital, the Company may be compelled to reduce the scope of its operations and planned capital expenditure or sell certain assets, including intellectual property assets. Without additional financing, we do not believe our resources will be sufficient to meet our operating and capital needs through the end of our fiscal year ended March 31, 2017.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

To the best of management’s knowledge, there are no off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. This preparation requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. U.S. GAAP provides the framework from which to make these estimates, assumption and disclosures. We choose accounting policies within U.S. GAAP that management believes are appropriate to accurately and fairly report our operating results and financial position in a consistent manner. Management regularly assesses these policies in light of current and forecasted economic conditions. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management. While there are a number of significant accounting policies affecting our financial statements, we believe the critical accounting policies involving the most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and judgments are: valuation of non-monetary transactions, stock compensation for services, valuation of options and valuation of income taxes.

25


Stock-Based Compensation

We account for all of our stock-based payments and awards under the fair value based method. We recognize our stock-based compensation using the straight-line method.

Stock-based payments to non-employees are measured at the fair value of the consideration received, or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, or liabilities incurred, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value of stock-based payments to non-employees is periodically re-measured until the counterparty performance is complete, and any change therein is recognized over the vesting period of the award and in the same manner as if we had paid cash instead of paying with or using equity based instruments. The fair value of the stock-based payments to non-employees that is fully vested and non-forfeitable as at the grant date is measured and recognized at that date.

We account for the granting of share purchase options to employees using the fair value method whereby all awards to employees will be recorded at fair value on the date of the grant. The fair value of all share purchase options are expensed over their vesting period with a corresponding increase to additional capital surplus. Upon exercise of share purchase options, the consideration paid by the option holder, together with the amount previously recognized in additional paid-in capital is recorded as an increase to share capital. Share purchase options granted to employees are accounted for as liabilities when they contain conditions or other features that are indexed to other than a market, performance or service condition.

We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair value of our share purchase options. We lack historical and implied volatility information. Therefore, we estimate our expected stock volatility based on the historical volatility of a publicly traded set of peer companies and expect to continue to do so until such time as we have adequate historical data regarding the volatility of our own traded stock price. The expected term of our stock options has been determined utilizing the “simplified” method for awards that qualify as “plain vanilla” options. The expected term of stock options granted to non-employees is equal to the contractual term of the option award. The risk free interest rate is determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant of the award for time periods approximately equal to the expected term of the award. Expected dividend yield is based on the fact that we have never paid cash dividends and do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Derivative Liabilities

We evaluate our financial instruments and other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC 815. The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the embedded derivative is marked-to-market at each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability and the change in fair value is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity.

The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is reassessed at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instruments that become subject to reclassification are reclassified at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date. Derivative instrument liabilities will be classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not settlement of the derivative instrument is expected within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

We use the Black-Scholes option valuation model to value derivative liabilities. This model uses Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy established by ASC 820 - Fair Value Measurement.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The amendments in this update change existing guidance related to accounting for employee share-based payments affecting the income tax consequences of awards, classification of awards as equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of this standard.

26


In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the consolidated income statement. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of this standard.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The amendments in this update revise the accounting related to the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities and the presentation of certain fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of this standard.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, which is intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or within one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued when applicable) and to provide related footnote disclosures. The ASU provides guidance to an organization’s management, with principles and definitions that are intended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of disclosures that are commonly provided by organizations today in the financial statement footnotes. The ASU is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, which for the Company is April 1, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

The amendments also clarify that the guidance in Topic 275, Risks and Uncertainties, is applicable to entities that have not commenced planned principal operations. The central feature of the guidance on disclosure requirements is that required disclosures are limited to matters significant to a particular entity. The disclosures focus primarily on risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect the amounts reported in the financial statements in the near term or the near-term functioning of the reporting entity.

JOBS Act

In April 2012, the JOBS Act was enacted in the United States. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. Thus, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourselves of this extended transition period and, as a result, we will adopt new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth public companies.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

In connection with this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, our management evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, and has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of June 30, 2016. In particular, the Company’s management determined that the improper design of controls with respect to the classification of the Company’s warrants was a deficiency in its internal control over financial reporting resulting from the material weakness identified at December 31, 2015. As a result, we did not maintain effective controls over the accounting with respect to the classification of the Company’s warrants issued in various private placements, which led us to restate our interim condensed consolidated financial statements. As of the date of this filing, we are still in the process of remediating the material weaknesses that caused our disclosure controls and procedures to not be effective.

27


A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In connection with the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2016, our management determined that our accounting staff does not have sufficient technical accounting knowledge relating to accounting for income taxes and complex U.S. GAAP matters, which our management determined has caused our disclosure controls and procedures to be ineffective.

We intend to take appropriate and reasonable steps to make the necessary improvements to our accounting staff to remediate the material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures as resources to do so become available. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objective.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business activities. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, as of the date of this filing, we do not believe we are party to any claim or litigation, the outcome of which, if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, other than as set forth below in respect of the matters described below. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

Intellectual Property Litigation

On January 27, 2015 we received a demand letter containing allegations that we had entered into a consulting arrangement with the complainants and breached certain of its terms, and used certain intellectual property in the form of business and marketing plans allegedly prepared by the complainants, and seeking damages. On May 7, 2015, Mr. Rainier Maas and Dr. Jochen Scheld filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania seeking monetary damages in excess of $225,000. On December 22, 2015, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the plaintiffs for an amount of €57,000, which was paid on January 12, 2016. The parties have since executed the settlement agreement for the aforementioned amount and the case has been dismissed without prejudice.

On January 5, 2015, Wicab sued the Company, NHC, Mitch Tyler, a director of the Company and NHC, Yuri Danilov, a former director of the Company and a director of NHC, and ANR, in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin. ANR is the licensor to the Company of three issued patents (U.S. Patent Nos. 8,849,407 and 8,909,345 and 9,020,612) and other patents pending related to neurostimulation methods and devices. The complaint contained various state and common law claims arising from Messrs. Danilov’s and Tyler’s prior employment with Wicab and relating to ownership of two of the issued patents (U.S. Patent Nos. 8,849,407 and 8,909,345). U.S. Patent No. 9,020,612 was not included in the Wicab complaint. The complaint alleged, among other things, that following their departure from Wicab, Danilov and Tyler knowingly filed patent applications for and used ideas and inventions developed at Wicab in violation of various non-competition and confidentiality agreements, and that the two issued patents are therefore rightfully the property of Wicab. The complaint sought an unspecified amount of monetary damages, an injunction preventing NHC from using the ideas and inventions in the two patents, an order transferring ownership of the patents from ANR to Wicab, and recovery of costs and attorneys’ fees. The Company conducted an internal investigation and determined that Wicab expressly waived all rights in the two issued patents and, additionally, that Wicab’s claims were barred by the six year statute of limitations in Wisconsin. On January 14, 2015, the Company informed Wicab of its belief that the claims were barred due to the express waiver and the statute of limitations. On the same day, Wicab dismissed the complaint without prejudice.

28


On October 12, 2015, the Company received a letter from Wicab alleging that the two issued patents were invalid in view of prior art cited in the letter, including scientific publications and patent applications, and that Paul Bach-y-Rita, Wicab’s founder, should have been named as an inventor on these two issued patents. Wicab indicated in the letter that it may file reexamination or inter partes review proceedings with the U.S. Patent Office to attempt to invalidate the claims in the two issued patents. Wicab also stated that it would consider an unspecified “business solution” to resolve this matter. On December 10, 2015, representatives of each of the Company and Wicab met to discuss the parameters of a potential settlement. There can be no guarantee that a settlement will be reached. In the event that a settlement with Wicab is not reached, Wicab may file reexamination or inter partes review proceedings with the U.S. Patent Office to challenge the validity of the two issued patents. If the Company receives an adverse decision from the U.S. Patent Office in connection with these proceedings, some or all of the claims in the two patents may be invalidated or otherwise impaired, which could prevent the Company from bringing an infringement suit against a future competitor for making use of the PoNS™ technology for neurorehabilitation, and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition. Wicab may also take other actions against the Company, its assets, intellectual property rights, officers, directors, employees, agents or other persons or entities which may also have a material on business, operating results and financial condition.

Except as described above, we are not aware of any legal proceedings contemplated by any governmental authority or any other party involving us or our properties. As of March 31, 2016, no director, officer or affiliate is: (i) a party adverse to us in any legal proceeding, or (ii) has an adverse interest to us in any legal proceedings. We are not aware of any other legal proceedings pending or that have been threatened against us or our properties.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2016. You should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2016, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results . The risks described in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2016, are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
