NOTE 7 -    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Obligation Under Operating Lease

 

The Company leases approximately 1,700 square feet for its principal offices in Boca Raton, Florida at a monthly rental of approximately $3,200. The lease, which provides for annual increases of base rent of 4%, expires on November 30, 2018. The Company also subleases office space for a satellite office in Tampa, Florida for engineering and support staff. The current sublease is month to month and has a base rent of $2,000 per month.

 

Rent expense incurred during the six months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was $22,985 and $22,042, respectively. Rent expense incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was $11,631 and $11,203, respectively.

 

Revenue and Accounts Receivable Concentration

 

Approximately 16% and 15% of the Company’s revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were derived from one customer, respectively. As of March 31, 2018 one customer accounted for approximately 55% of the Company’s total outstanding accounts receivable. As of September 30, 2017, two customers accounted for approximately 24% of the Company’s total outstanding accounts receivable.

 

Letter of Intent and Spin-Off

 

In March 2018, the Company approved a Letter of intent to be issued by its subsidiary VoiceInterop, Inc. to CanniPlus Global, Inc. The Company also approved that the Company spin-off VoiceInterop into a separate company under a Form-10 registration to be filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. As of the date of this filing, the transaction has not been completed.

 

Major Supplier and Sole Manufacturing Source

 

During 2014, the Company developed a proprietary interoperable communications solution. The Company relies on no major supplier for its products and services. The Company has contracted with a single local manufacturing facility to provide completed circuit boards used in the assembly of its IP gateway devices. Interruption to the manufacturing source presents additional risk to the Company. The Company believes that other commercial facilities exist at competitive rates to match the resources and capabilities of its existing manufacturing source.
