B-SCADA, INC. - 10-Q - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


(Edgar Glimpses Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) The following discussion of our results of operations should be read together with our financial statements and the related notes, included elsewhere in this report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our current plans, estimates and beliefs and involves unknown risks and uncertainties. Examples of forward-looking statements include: projections of capital expenditures, competitive pressures, revenues, growth prospects, product development, financial resources and other financial matters. You can identify these and other forward-looking statements by the use of words such as "may," "will," "should," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts," "intends," "potential" or the negative of such terms, or other comparable terminology. Our actual results may differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.



Executive Summary Since 2003, our experience in building and deploying HMI (Human Machine Interface) and SCADA (Supervisor Control and Data Acquisition) Systems has given us a unique perspective and insight into new data visualization possibilities with emerging technologies.

We specialize in the compelling visualization of real-time data. B-Scada has produced exceptional data visualization solutions for manufacturing, power and utilities, petro chemical, emissions monitoring, building automation and other fields of business making use of HMI and SCADA software products.


Our in-house expertise and experience has provided us the opportunity to partner with companies from various vertical markets, and assist them in developing custom solutions that meet their specific needs. Our goal is to help our clients transfer their real-time production and operational data into actionable information through graphically-compelling, functional, and intuitive user interfaces.

Overall Strategic Goals Our goal is to become a leading supplier of HMI and SCADA systems to industry.

Using some of the best talent in the industry, we build our monitoring systems in house and sell them into various vertical markets worldwide including building automation, petro chemical, transportation, electricity distribution and EPA emissions monitoring. Smaller firms and Fortune 500 companies have recognized the talent of our technical staff and the unique capabilities of our technology. This has given us the ability to license portions of our technology to other companies to use in their software systems.

Products and Services Our technology team has extensive experience in software design and development and has designed, built and delivered, over the years, world-class software solutions for numerous vertical markets. In addition to software development, we also derive income from consulting services, graphic design and contract development that we offer hand in hand with our software solutions.

Product Description 'Status Machine Edition' was released in January 2009 as an industrial control and monitoring application for heavy industry and manufacturing. 'Status Enterprise' is a supervisory level version of Machine Edition which was released in January 2014.

The Status products fall into the category of a SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) or HMI (Human Machine Interface) software application.

The Status family of products are a powerful data visualization software package that allows the user to create highly graphical screens and connect the controls on the screens to real-time data. The screens can then be published and viewed by anyone within the company or from the web.

14 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status has built-in connectivity to real-time OPC (Open Process Control) data (including OPCUA (Unified Architecture)) and can very easily be extended to bind to other types of data. OPC data is primarily used in the manufacturing and process control industries. The market appeal for Status is its ability to connect to a variety of OPC servers and display real-time data from hundreds of data sources.

We have attracted a number of resellers and system integrators that are now promoting and using the Status product line in commercial settings. We believe that this will result in greater sales and distribution of our software through retail outlets and to original equipment manufacturers ("OEM"s). We are also targeting potential customers to offer customized applications to meet their industry requirements. Status Machine Edition is now being used to monitor one of the largest subway systems in the world in Seoul, South Korea. Status Machine Edition monitors building automation performance in pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities, electricity distribution, mining equipment and furniture manufacturing. Status Machine Edition and Status Enterprise are used in various monitoring applications in numerous verticals in the United States and around the world in numerous countries including Germany, Sweden, Taiwan, Kuwait, Malaysia, Chile, Canada, United Kingdom, Italy, Turkey, South Africa, Russia and France.

Status Enterprise provides greater scalability, data modeling and support for HTML 5 and mobile devices. We do not expect this offering to start contributing to revenue growth until the end of 2014 or beginning of 2015, as the sales cycles for SCADA products is often several months or more.

Consulting In addition to sales of the Status products, we generate revenue by providing consulting services to companies that wish to extend and customize our technology. We provide .Net development and screen design services. We also offer training and graphic design services and produce 3D models of equipment and machinery for use in mimics.

Technology Licensing In addition to selling our own software products, we also license the technology we have developed to other software companies. Long-term licenses to multinational software companies are a major part of our business. The lead time for our engineers to work with theirs in developing successful integration of our software with their future products is fairly long - from nine months to two years - but the result is a multiyear high revenue license providing substantial income for us for years to come. We have several such agreements in place with Fortune 500 companies, and numerous agreements with smaller firms.

The products developed using B-Scada's technology include industrial automation solutions, medical applications for use in hospitals, smart grid, building automation and line of business applications. The relationships established through licensing are very strategic and may lead to acquisitions to prevent competitive companies from having the same strategic benefits.

Growth Strategy B-Scada software can collect vital information of what is happening with the system it is monitoring. This data can be very valuable for such activities as scheduling, predictive maintenance and manufacturing execution as well as providing for real-time business process management data to executive-level personnel. Our growth strategy is to grow our software offerings beyond SCADA and provide a more complete and valuable offering to our customers. These additional software products may be developed in house as the company grows, or added through a business acquisition. Additional capital may be needed to finance such an acquisition, either through debt or equity public or private offerings. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise capital in an amount necessary to finance such acquisition or on acceptable terms.

Revenue Strategy We are currently generating revenues by licensing portions of our technology to different software companies, technology they use in their software products.

These are long term arrangements providing consistent annual revenue to B-Scada.

We also sell our SCADA software products to system integrators and commercial customers for visually monitoring and archiving their industrial data. Often, we are asked to provide technical expertise in the form of software development, graphics design and consulting services along with the software we provide our customers.

15 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We currently sell our products directly over the Internet from our website and through resellers to end users and system integrators.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The preparation of the financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosures. Though we evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis, our actual results may differ from these estimates.

Certain of our accounting policies that we believe are the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and that require management's subjective judgments are described below to facilitate a better understanding of our business activities. We base our judgments on our experience and assumptions that we believe are reasonable and applicable under the circumstances.

Revenue Recognition - Our revenues are recognized in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 985-605 "Revenue Recognition" for the software industry. Revenue from the sale of software licenses is recognized when standardized software modules are delivered to and accepted by the customer, the license term has begun, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectability is probable. Revenue from software maintenance contracts and Application Service Provider ("ASP") services are recognized ratably over the lives of the contracts. Revenue from professional services is recognized when the service is provided.

We enter into revenue arrangements in which a customer may purchase a combination of software, maintenance and support, and professional services (multiple-element arrangements). When vendor-specific objective evidence ("VSOE") of fair value exists for all elements, we allocate revenue to each element based on the relative fair value of each of the elements. VSOE of fair value is established by the price charged when that element is sold separately.

For maintenance and support, VSOE of fair value is established by renewal rates, when they are sold separately. For arrangements where VSOE of fair value exists only for the undelivered elements, we defer the full fair value of the undelivered elements and recognize the difference between the total arrangement fee and the amount deferred for the undelivered items as revenue, assuming all other criteria for revenue recognition have been met.

16 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Results of Operations Comparison of the Three Months Ended July 31, 2014 and 2013 The following tables set forth, for the periods indicated, certain items from the statements of operations along with a comparative analysis of ratios of costs and expenses to revenues.

For the three months ended July 31, 2014 2013 (Unaudited) (Unaudited) % of % of Amounts Revenues Amounts Revenues Revenues Technology licensing and support $ 497,632 87% $ 249,515 73% Commercial software 76,683 13% 90,629 27% Total revenues 574,315 100% 340,144 100% Operating expenses: Technology licensing and support 53,742 9% 39,566 12% Commercial software 52,667 9% 38,699 11% Sales and marketing 81,879 14% 49,624 15% Research and development 6,853 1% 4,870 1% General and administrative 192,764 34% 125,305 37% Depreciation expense 3,672 1% 1,307 -- Total operating expenses 391,577 68% 259,371 76% Other (income) expenses 1,185 --% 2,833 1% Net Income $ 181,553 32% $ 77,940 23% Basic earnings per common share $ 0.01 $ -- Diluted earnings per common share $ 0.01 $ -- Revenues Our revenues for the three months ended July 31, 2014 amounted to $574,315 compared to fiscal 2013 revenues of $340,144, an increase of approximately $234,000 (69%). In fiscal 2014, we had increases in technology licensing and support revenues of $248,000 which were offset by a decline in commercial software revenues of $14,000. We entered into two new long-term licensing agreements at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2013. In fiscal 2014, customer development services from these customers accounted for most of the increase in technology licensing and support revenues. We continue to implement our strategic goals to generate increased revenues from the sales of our products and services, which accounted for the balance of our revenue growth.

Service revenues include revenues from fees charged for the implementation of our software products and training of customers in the use of such products. We are currently selling our software over the internet and are marketing our products and services to companies which may want to license or joint venture some of our software applications.

17 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Operating Expenses Technology licensing and support costs and commercial software costs consist primarily of payroll and related expenses. Technology licensing and support costs amounted to $53,742 in the three months ended July 31, 2014 compared to $39,566 in the three months ended July 31, 2013 an increase of $14,176 (36%).

Commercial software costs amounted to $52,667 in the three months ended July 31, 2014 compared to $38,699 in the three months ended July 31, 2013 an increase of $13,968 (36%). These increased costs result from our adding personnel to service our new business as well as the anticipated business from the release of Status Enterprise in January 2014.

As a percentage of technology licensing and support revenues the related costs decreased to 11% in fiscal 2014 as compared to 16% of such revenues in fiscal 2013. Commercial software costs were 69% of commercial software revenues in fiscal 2014 compared to 43% in fiscal 2013. This was a result of our decrease in such revenues in fiscal 2014. Overall these costs represented 19% of revenues this period compared to 23% of fiscal 2013 revenues.

Sales and marketing costs have increased to $81,879 in the three months ended July 31, 2014 from $49,624 in the three months ended July 31, 2013, an increase of $32,255 (65%). Payroll and related costs increased to $36,160 from $26,481 and advertising and marketing increased to $29,001 from $14,713. As operations continue to improve we have increased our sales and marketing budget since we believe it is necessary to market our products and services in order to accomplish our plan for revenue growth.

Research and development costs increased to $6,853 in the three months ended July 31, 2014 from $4,870 in the three months ended July 31, 2013, an increase of $1,983 (41%). Research and development payroll and related costs increase as we continuously work on new features for our products.

General and administrative costs increased to $192,764 in the three months ended July 31, 2014 from $125,305 in the three months ended July 31, 2013, an increase of $67,459 (54%). The increase was primarily related to increases in payroll and related costs, which increased to $113,380 from $83,632, repairs and maintenance, which increased $5,606, and professional and consulting fees, which increased $29,303. The increases in payroll and professional and consulting fees result from increased costs to administer our business as it continues to grow and to properly maintain the financial records necessary for our periodic filings which are required as a public company. The increased repairs and maintenance costs, which should be non-recurring, relate primarily to the relocation to our new office facility in April 2014. These relocation cost increases were offset by a related decrease in rent expense of $9,032.

Depreciation expense increased to $3,672 in the three months ended July 31, 2014 from $1,307 in the three months ended July 31, 2013 primarily due to the purchase of and improvements made to our new office facility.

Other Income and Expenses Other income and expenses in the three months ended July 31, 2014 consists of interest expense of $1,562 net of interest income of $377 and interest expense of $2,833 in the three months ended July 31, 2013.

Interest expense decreased from $2,833 in the three months ended July 31, 2013 to $1,562 in the three months ended July 31, 2014. We paid off both our promissory notes with our CEO ($164,173) and the convertible debenture ($50,000) during fiscal 2013. In the three months ended July 31, 2014, we incurred interest expense from the mortgage payable on our new office facility.

Income Tax Benefit Prior to the year ended October 31, 2013 the deferred tax asset arising from pre-tax losses had been fully reserved as we were not able to determine that it was more likely than not that we would be able to realize the tax benefits in the future. Based on our evaluation of the positive and negative evidence at October 31, 2013, management determined that the Company would utilize a portion of its net operating loss carry forwards in future periods and that it was "more likely than not" that it would utilize a portion of its deferred tax assets. As a result, management elected to reduce the Company's deferred tax asset valuation allowance by $406,744 as of October 31, 2013. Based on current operations, it is estimated that no further adjustment is necessary at July 31, 2014, but management will review each period to determine if additional reductions to the valuation allowance are warranted and adjust accordingly.

18 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net Income Net income in the three months ended July 31, 2014 totaled $181,553 compared to net income of $77,940 in the three months ended July 31, 2013, an increase of $103,613 (133%) as discussed above.

Results of Operations Comparison of the Nine Months Ended July 31, 2014 and 2013 The following tables set forth, for the periods indicated, certain items from the statements of operations along with a comparative analysis of ratios of costs and expenses to revenues.

For the nine months ended July 31, 2014 2013 (Unaudited) (Unaudited) % of % of Amounts Revenues Amounts Revenues Revenues Technology licensing and support $ 1,194,634 84% $ 751,387 71% Commercial software 223,227 16% 303,644 29% Total revenues 1,417,861 100% 1,055,031 100% Operating expenses: Technology licensing and support 134,435 9% 99,495 9% Commercial software 150,189 11% 111,102 11% Sales and marketing 254,054 18% 167,032 16% Research and development 87,450 6% 64,727 6% General and administrative 428,751 30% 281,327 27% Depreciation expense 7,752 1% 3,851 --% Total operating expenses 1,062,631 75% 727,534 69% Other (income) expenses 1,464 --% 10,230 1% Net Income $ 353,766 25% $ 317,267 30% Basic earnings per common share $ 0.01 $ 0.01 Diluted earnings per common share $ 0.01 $ 0.01 Revenues Our revenues for the nine months ended July 31, 2014 amounted to $1,417,861 compared to fiscal 2013 revenues of $1,055,031, an increase of approximately $363,000 (34%). In fiscal 2014, we had increases in technology licensing and support revenues of $443,000 which were offset by a decline in commercial software revenues of $80,000. We entered into two new long-term licensing agreements at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2013. In fiscal 2014, custom development services from these customers accounted for most of the increase in technology licensing and support revenues.

19 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Although we had an overall decline in commercial software revenues, product licensing revenue increased 33% to $84,127 and represents 38% of commercial software revenue in fiscal 2014 as compared to 21% in fiscal 2013. Commercial software consulting revenues declined 38% to $127,675 and we currently anticipate that these revenues will decrease in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 and early fiscal 2015 if we are unable to enter into new contracts as projects with two of our larger customers are completed.

Microsoft abandoned the future development of Microsoft Silverlight which was used in leveraging Status Machine sales as it was utilized for remote monitoring for process control. This created a negative perception in the marketplace and directly resulted in lost opportunities of Status Machine Edition sales. This also negatively impact support fees as 90% of our Status Machine Edition sales were for the Silverlight web solution.

In an effort to combat the situation, B-Scada has heavily promoted Status Enterprise as a replacement for those that are seeking remote monitoring capabilities. Status Enterprise uses the highly-adopted HTML 5 which is used in all smart devices such as IPads, IPhones, Androids and Blackberry.

Since the initial release of Status Enterprise at the end of January 2014 we have had 23 public presentations with a total of 100 attendees. This is a 200% increase when compared to Status Machine Edition. Of the 100 attendees 3 have become customers thus far with 20 more in the pipeline. Using those numbers we can roughly project that 1 out of 4 webinar attendees will eventually become a customer. This is very exciting as Status Enterprise has only been on the market since the beginning of February 2014. Compared to Status Machine Edition, Status Enterprise is having a much more positive impact in its first year of release.

Status Enterprise offers an advantage not available with Machine Edition in that the customer has the opportunity to subscribe annually rather than pay for the license one time. Status Enterprise support is being pushed heavily as there are new modules under development that we anticipate customers will want. As a very powerful and complex product compared to Machine Edition, purchasing support for Status Enterprise will be beneficial to the customer.

We continue to implement our strategic goals to generate increased revenues from the sales of our products and services, which accounted for the balance of our revenue growth. Service revenues include revenues from fees charged for the implementation of our software products and training of customers in the use of such products. We are currently selling our software over the internet and are marketing our products and services to companies which may want to license or joint venture some of our software applications.

Operating Expenses Technology licensing and support costs and commercial software costs consist primarily of payroll and related expenses. Technology licensing and support costs amounted to $134,435 in the nine months ended July 31, 2014 compared to $99,495 in the nine months ended July 31, 2013 an increase of $34,940 (35%).

Commercial software costs amounted to $150,189 in the nine months ended July 31, 2014 compared to $111,102 in the nine months ended July 31, 2013 an increase of $39,087 (35%). These increased costs result from our adding personnel to service our new business as well as the anticipated business from the release of Status Enterprise in January 2014.

As a percentage of technology licensing and support revenues the related costs were 11% of such revenues in fiscal 2014 and 13% in fiscal 2013. Commercial software costs were 67% of commercial software revenues in fiscal 2014 compared to 37% in fiscal 2013. This was a result of our decrease in such revenues in fiscal 2014. Overall these costs represented 20% of revenues this period and fiscal 2013.

Sales and marketing costs have increased to $254,054 in the nine months ended July 31, 2014 from $167,032 in the nine months ended July 31, 2013, an increase of $87,022 (52%). Payroll and related costs increased to $144,467 from $106,902 and advertising and marketing increased to $65,983 from $38,945. As operations continue to improve we have increased our sales and marketing budget since we believe it is necessary to market our products and services in order to accomplish our plan for revenue growth.

20 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Research and development costs increased to $87,450 in the nine months ended July 31, 2014 from $64,727 in the nine months ended July 31, 2013, an increase of $22,723 (35%). Research and development payroll and related costs increased as we worked on the release of our new product, Status Enterprise, and new features.

General and administrative costs increased to $428,751 in the nine months ended July 31, 2014 from $281,327 in the nine months ended July 31, 2013, an increase of $147,424 (52%). The increase was primarily related to increases in payroll and related costs, which increased to $230,454 from $170,523, repairs and maintenance, which increased $19,471, and professional and consulting fees, which increased $41,890. The increases in payroll and professional and consulting fees result from increased costs to administer our business as it continues to grow and to properly maintain the financial records necessary for our periodic filings which are required as a public company. The increased repairs and maintenance costs, which should be non-recurring, relate primarily to the relocation to our new office facility in April 2014. These relocation cost increases were offset by a related decrease in rent expense of $7,478.

Depreciation expense increased to $7,752 in the nine months ended July 31, 2014 form $3,851 in the nine months ended July 31, 2013 primarily due to the purchase of and improvements to our new office facility.

Other Income and Expenses Other income and expenses in the nine months ended July 31, 2014 consists of interest expense of $2,355 net of interest income of $891 and interest expense of $10,230 in the nine months ended July 31, 2013.

Interest expense decreased from $10,230 in the nine months ended July 31, 2013 to $2,355 in the nine months ended July 31, 2014 as we paid off both our promissory notes with our CEO ($164,173) and the convertible debenture ($50,000) during fiscal 2013. Beginning in In April 2014, we incurred interest expense from the mortgage payable on our new office facility.

Income Tax Benefit Prior to the year ended October 31, 2013 the deferred tax asset arising from pre-tax losses had been fully reserved as we were not able to determine that it was more likely than not that we would be able to realize the tax benefits in the future. Based on our evaluation of the positive and negative evidence at October 31, 2013, management determined that the Company would utilize a portion of its net operating loss carry forwards in future periods and that it was "more likely than not" that it would utilize a portion of its deferred tax assets. As a result, management elected to reduce the Company's deferred tax asset valuation allowance by $406,744 as of October 31, 2013. Based on current operations, it is estimated that no further adjustment is necessary at July 31, 2014, but management will review each period to determine if additional reductions to the valuation allowance are warranted and adjust accordingly.

Net Income Net income in the nine months ended July 31, 2014 totaled $353,766 compared to net income of $317,267 in the nine months ended July 31, 2013, an increase of $36,499 (12%) as discussed above.

21 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Liquidity and Capital Resources We currently fund our operations through sales of our products and services.

At July 31, 2014, we had cash and cash equivalents of $748,591 compared to $252,571 at October 31, 2013. The increase of $496,020 is primarily attributable to cash generated from operations reduced by acquisition costs of long-lived assets.

In August 2014, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Yorkmont Capital Partners, L.P. and received $800,000 from the sale of 2,424,242 shares of our common stock at $0.33 per share.

Cash Flows Net cash provided by operating activities amounted to $591,990 and $595,092 in the nine months ended July 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Net cash from operations remained comparative with that of the prior period as we anticipate that revenue growth from Status Enterprise will begin in the latter part of 2014 or early 2015.

In fiscal 2014 and 2013, cash was used for investing activities for the acquisition of property and equipment in the amount of $90,855 and $6,870, respectively.

In fiscal 2014 and 2013, cash was used for financing activities as follows: In fiscal 2014 we purchased a new office facility and incurred a mortgage payable of $127,500, of which we paid $5,115 in principal in the nine months ended July 31, 2014. We relocated in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. In fiscal 2013, we paid promissory notes owed to our CEO in the amount of $73,673.

We believe that our cash on hand at July 31, 2014 and our revenue commitments will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months. We have signed significant licensing agreements and continue to market our products and services in accordance with our strategic business plan. There is no assurance that the income generated from these and future agreements will meet our working capital requirements, or that we will be able to sign significant agreements in the future.

Deferred Tax Asset Valuation Allowance Accounting standards require that we assess whether a valuation allowance should be established against our deferred tax asset based on the consideration of all available evidence using a "more likely than not" standard. In making such judgments, we considered both positive and negative evidence as well as other factors which may impact future operating results. From our inception through October 31, 2012, we had established a full valuation allowance on our deferred tax asset because of a lack of sufficient positive evidence to support its realization. At October 31, 2013, based on its evaluation of the positive and negative evidence, management determined that the Company would utilize a portion of its net operating loss carry forwards in future periods and that it was "more likely than not" that it would utilize a portion of its deferred tax assets. The positive evidence evaluated as of October 31, 2013 consists of (i) our increased revenues, including the signing of several long term licensing agreements which run through fiscal 2019; (ii) our positive earnings, beginning in fiscal 2011 and increasing in each of fiscal 2012 and 2013; (iii) our ability to maintain operating costs as we have grown revenues; (iv) the utilization of net operating loss carry forwards in the last three fiscal years. The negative evidence evaluated as of October 31, 2013 consists of (i) our history of operating losses from inception through fiscal 2010; (ii) the possibility that a licensing agreement is cancelled or that non licensing revenues will decline; (iii) the possibility that our operating costs will increase. As a result, management elected to reduce the Company's deferred tax asset valuation allowance by $406,744 as of October 31, 2013.

Overall the valuation allowance decreased by approximately $115,000 and $462,000 in the nine months ended July 31, 2014 and the year ended October 31, 2013, respectively.

Contractual Obligations Not Applicable 22 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements As of July 31, 2014, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605, "Revenue Recognition", and most industry-specific guidance. This ASU is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. The amendments in the ASU will be applied using one of two retrospective methods. The effective date will be the first quarter of our fiscal year ended October 31, 2018. We have not determined the potential effects on our financial statements.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have an effect on the accompanying financial statements.
