THERAPEUTIC SOLUTIONS INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2016


Note 1 – Organization


Therapeutic Solutions International, Inc. (“TSI” or the “Company”) was organized August 6, 2007 under the name Friendly Auto Dealers, Inc., under the laws of the State of Nevada. In the first quarter of 2011 the Company changed its name from Friendly Auto Dealers, Inc. to Therapeutic Solutions International, Inc., and acquired Splint Decisions, Inc., a California corporation.


Currently the Company is focused on immune modulation for the treatment of several specific diseases. Immune modulation refers to the ability to upregulate (make more active) or downregulate (make less active) one’s immune system.


Activating one’s immune system is now a well-accepted method to cure certain cancers, reduce recovery time from viral or bacterial infections and to prevent illness. On the other hand, inhibiting one’s immune system is vital for reducing inflammation, autoimmune disorders and allergic reactions.


TSI is developing a range of immune-modulatory agents to target certain cancers, improve maternal and fetal health, fight periodontal disease, and for daily health.


Nutraceutical Division – TSI has been producing high quality nutraceuticals. Its flagship product, ProJuvenol®, is a proprietary mixture containing pterostilbene – one of the most potent antioxidants known. TSI filed a patent application for ProJuvenol® on 07-08-2015 titled: “Augmentation of Oncology Immunotherapies by Pterostilbene Containing Compositions”.   In addition we recently introduced a line of “oncologist friendly nutraceuticals” in liposome formula. These include CoQ10, Curcumin, Glutathione, and Vitamin-C in 16oz bottles.


OmniBiome, Inc., (“Omni”) - is a majority-owned subsidiary of TSI, incorporated in the State of Delaware on October 20, 2015 As of March 31, 2016 and March 6, 2017, TSI owns approximately 73.75% of the outstanding shares of OmniBiome.  Omni intends to focus on the use of probiotics to prevent pre-term labor and on using probiotics to reverse periodontal disease.  Mr. Dixon and Mr. Berg, of the Company, are also officers and Directors of Omni. As of March 6, 2017 operations have not commenced.


TSI has experienced recurring losses over the past years which have resulted in accumulated deficits of approximately $3,440 thousand and a working capital deficit of approximately $148 thousand at March 31, 2016. These conditions raise uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon its ability to secure additional financing, increase sales of its products and attain profitable operations. It is the intent of management to continue to raise additional capital. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure such additional funds or obtain such on terms satisfactory to the Company, if at all. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.


Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


During the three months ended March 31, 2016, there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 filed with the SEC on October 31, 2016 and Form 10-K/A filed on January 25, 2017.  The Company filed this Form 10-K/A to amend and restate management’s conclusions regarding the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015.


Management concluded that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2015 due to a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting.

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates


The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2015, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KA filed with the SEC on January 25, 2017. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TSI and its subsidiary. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal recurring accruals and adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Company at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016, and the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015. Estimates were made relating to valuation allowances, impairment of assets, share-based compensation expense and accruals. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any future interim periods.


Comprehensive Loss


Comprehensive loss for the periods reported was comprised solely of the Company’s net loss.


Net Loss Per Share


Basic net loss per share is calculated based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus common stock equivalents.  Common stock equivalents are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share when their effect is anti-dilutive. As of March 31, 2016 and 2015, there were no common stock equivalents outstanding.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The new standard modifies multiple provisions intended to simplify various aspects of accounting for share-based payments including income tax consequences, accounting for forfeitures, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2017. The adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.


In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard requires lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets as lease liabilities with corresponding right-of-use assets and eliminates certain real estate-specific provisions. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2019 and will be adopted on a modified retrospective transition basis for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.


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. The new standard requires management to assess, at each annual and interim reporting period, an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued and to provide related footnote disclosures. ASU 2014-15 will be effective for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2016. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.


In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The new standard is based on the principle that revenue should be recognized to depict the transfer of promised 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. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018 and allows for full retrospective or a modified retrospective adoption approach. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.


Note 3 – Restricted Cash


Other non-current assets includes a $10,000 certificate of deposit with an annual interest rate of 0.6%. This certificate matures on June 17, 2017, and is used as collateral for a Company credit card, pursuant to a security agreement dated June 20, 2011.

Note 4 – Notes Payable Related Party


At March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company has unsecured interest bearing demand notes outstanding to certain officers and directors amounting to $195,322 and $196,014, respectively.  Interest accrued during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 was $2,050 and $267, respectively.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS


CURRENT BUSINESS DESCRIPTION


Currently the Company is focused on immune modulation for the treatment of several specific diseases. Immune modulation refers to the ability to upregulate (make more active) or downregulate (make less active) one’s immune system.


Activating one’s immune system is now a well-accepted method to treat certain cancers, reduce recovery time from viral or bacterial infections and to prevent illness. On the other hand, inhibiting one’s immune system is vital for reducing inflammation, autoimmune disorders and allergic reactions.


TSI is developing a range of immune-modulatory agents to target certain cancers, improve maternal and fetal health, fight periodontal disease, and for daily health. The following outlines our relationships and divisions to focus on each of these programs:


Nutraceutical Division – TSI has been producing high quality nutraceuticals. Its flagship product, ProJuvenol®, is a proprietary mixture containing pterostilbene – one of the most potent antioxidants known. TSOI filed a patent application for ProJuvenol® on 07-08-2015 titled: “Augmentation of Oncology Immunotherapies by Pterostilbene Containing Compositions”. On April 28, 2016 the Company announced the filing of a patent application covering the use of ProJuvenol© and its active ingredient pterostilbene for augmentation of stem cell activity. In addition we recently launched 4 new products in Liposomal formulation. They are CoQ10, Curcumin, Glutathione, and Vitamin-C in 16oz bottles.


OmniBiome, Inc., (“OMNI”) - is a majority-owned subsidiary of TSI, incorporated in the State of Delaware on October 20, 2015.


Future programs will focus on the use of probiotics to prevent pre-term labor and on using probiotics to reverse periodontal disease.

Nutraceutical Division (TSOI)


ProJuvenol® is a powerful synergistic blend of complex anti-aging ingredients inspired by nature to help promote cellular rejuvenation and healthy functionality for everyday living, based upon pterostilbene, one of nature's unique and intelligent antioxidants/anti-inflammatories. ProJuvenol includes a scientifically valid blend of interactive ingredients with anti-aging and cellular protective properties to help support optimal health and provide the benefits of mental alertness and physical well-being.


Pterostilbene (pronounced "tero-STILL-bean") has created a buzz in the world of nutrition research. Scientists discovered this powerful antioxidant several decades ago and have since found that it rivals its cousin resveratrol's multi-functional abilities, and may actually exceed its anti-aging and health promoting potential. Found naturally in blueberries, pterostilbene has been shown in emerging experimental studies to exhibit up to 7 times greater bioavailability than resveratrol as well as better metabolic stability. This translates to potentially higher levels of pterostilbene in the blood upon ingestion, and longer lasting effects in the body compared to resveratrol. More simply put, it remains active in your body for a much greater period of time and during this enhanced bio-available period your body has the opportunity to allow it to utilize this powerful antioxidant molecule.


A large body of experimental research has now documented a wide range of potential health effects associated with pterostilbene. In fact, the more researchers study pterostilbene, the greater its human health potential becomes. In addition to being a powerful antioxidant, emerging experimental research suggests this plant compound may also help regulate cell growth, promote fat metabolism, support glucose utilization, influence brain function, and improve the body's natural detoxification enzymes that are required to help protect cells against potentially damaging compounds from the environment.


Patents:


TSOI filed a patent covering the use of its ProJuvenol® product, as well as various pterostilbene compositions, for use in augmenting efficacy of existing immuno-oncology drugs that are currently on the market. The patent is based on the ability of pterostilbene, one of the major ingredients of ProJuvenol®, to reduce oxidative stress produced by cancer cells, which in turn protects the immune system from cancer mediated immune suppression.


Immuno-Oncology, described by Science Magazine as 'Breakthrough of the Year' offers the possibility of not only killing tumor cells in a non-toxic manner, but also establishing immunological memory, which patrols the body and destroys recurrent tumor cells. While great progress has been made in developing drugs that stimulate the immune system to recognize and kill tumors, a major pitfall of current approaches is that tumors produce chemicals and oxidative stress that suppresses the immune system, thus limiting efficacy of immune therapies.


Pterostilbene, which is chemically related to resveratrol, has been published to possess anticancer, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities. Through the filing of the recent patent, the company is exploring whether its lead product, ProJuvenol®, may be useful as a nutraceutical adjuvant to conventional cancer immunotherapies.


The importance of proper nutrition in the context of immunotherapy cannot be overstated. Studies on one of the original cancer immunotherapies, interleukin-2, demonstrated that efficacy was related to anti-oxidant content in the patients at time of therapy. Accordingly, we are seeking through the current work to identify whether our currently marketed product, ProJuvenol®, may be utilized as part of an integrative approach to building up the immune response of cancer patients.


In addition, on April 28, 2016 the Company filed a patent application covering the use of ProJuvenol© and its active ingredient pterostilbene for augmentation of stem cell activity. Diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and neurodegenerative diseases are characterized by deficient stem cell activity. The patent covers the stimulation of stem cells that already exist in the patient’s body, as well as stem cells that are administered therapeutically.


Studies have shown that patients who have higher levels of endogenous stem cell activity have reduced cardiovascular disease risk and undergo accelerated neurological recovery after stroke as compared to patients with lower numbers of such stem cells.


TSOI markets currently several other nutraceuticals, they include T-Rx®, a testosterone booster, and Vital® Female an estrogen enhancer, Liposomal CoQ10, Curcumin, and Vitamin-C, all powerful antioxidants.

ProJuvenol® - Is a powerful synergistic blend of complex anti-aging ingredients inspired by nature to help promote cellular rejuvenation and healthy functionality for everyday living. Based upon one of nature's unique and intelligent anti- oxidants/anti-inflammatories.

[f10q033116_10q002.jpg]

T-Rx® - Is specifically designed just for men and is formulated to assist in increasing testosterone levels and keeping them high. The result is a significant increase in testosterone levels, which assist in adding lean muscle mass, bone density, increased energy and the reduction of fat.

[f10q033116_10q003.jpg]

VITAL® - Is specifically formulated for women and is designed to increase energy, increase bone density, reduce fat and improve muscle tone. Additionally this supplement will also optimize hormone levels, increase libido, and decrease symptoms of stress and anxiety.

[f10q033116_10q004.jpg]

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a substance similar to a vitamin. It is found in every cell of the body. Your body makes CoQ10, and your cells use it to produce energy your body needs for cell growth and maintenance. It also functions as an antioxidant, which protects the body from damage caused by harmful molecules.

[f10q033116_10q005.jpg]

Curcumin is an anti-inflammatory molecule in the turmeric root, a relative of ginger. The properties of curcumin can best be summarized as protective of the integrity of bio molecules in the body by being both a fabulous antioxidant and anti-inflammatory all rolled up in one.

[f10q033116_10q007.gif]

Glutathione is one of the most powerful antioxidants that the body produces and is used to bind and remove toxins, including heavy metals such as mercury and lead from the body. Levels may drop as result of oxidative stress due to disease, drugs, aging, toxic chemicals, inflammation and stress. Adequate levels of glutathione are necessary to provide important antioxidant protection.

[f10q033116_10q008.jpg]

Vitamin-C is absorbed at approximately 19%, the balance remains in the gastrointestinal tract to attract water and loosen the bowels. Liposomalized vitamin C is absorbed much more efficiently than traditional delivery methods. A huge advance in both efficiency and effectiveness of supplemental nutrients.


On June 22, 2016 the Company announced the addition of four new consumer products to our nutraceutical division.


The four new products are all be in Liposome formulas. Many orally consumed nutrients are absorbed from 4% to 19%! Those same nutrients in a Liposomal Delivery System are absorbed at a much higher level in the bloodstream. Liposomes have layers that can encapsulate an ingredient and serve to protect the ingredient from the environment as well as act as a slow release mechanism. A liposome is a microscopic, fluid-filled pouch whose walls are made of layers of phospholipids identical in makeup to the phospholipids that make up cell membranes.


Liposomes represent a versatile and advanced nanodelivery system for a wide range of biologically active compounds. Liposomes have been used to improve the therapeutic index of new or established ingredients by modifying their absorption, reducing metabolism, and prolonging biological half-life.


Liposomes can be used to deliver substances to the blood stream and even target cells much more efficiently than normal. The liposomes offer a unique delivery system for nutrients because these microscopic spheres are so tiny that absorption becomes almost perfect.


The four new high absorption formulas are Liposomal Vitamin-C, CoQ10, Curcumin, and Glutathione, sold in 16oz bottles.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION


The Company’s business is subject to varying degrees of regulation by a number of government authorities in the United States, including the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), and the Consumer Product Safety Commission.  The Company will be subject to additional agencies and regulations if it enters the manufacturing business. Various agencies of the state and localities in which we operate and in which our products are sold also regulate our business, such as the California Department of Health Services, Food and Drug Branch.  The areas of our business that these and other authorities regulate include, among others:


·

product claims and advertising;

·

product labels;

·

product ingredients; and

·

how we package, distribute, import, export, sell and store our products.

 

The FDA, in particular, regulates the formulation, manufacturing, packaging, storage, labeling, promotion, distribution and sale of vitamins and other nutritional supplements in the United States, while the FTC regulates marketing and advertising claims. The FDA issued a final rule called “Statements Made for Dietary Supplements Concerning the Effect of the Product on the Structure or Function of the Body,” which includes regulations requiring companies, their suppliers and manufacturers to meet Good Manufacturing Practices in the preparation, packaging, storage and shipment of their products.  Management is committed to meeting or exceeding the standards set by the FDA.

 

The FDA has also issued regulations governing the labeling and marketing of dietary and nutritional supplement products. They include:

 

·

the identification of dietary or nutritional supplements and their nutrition and ingredient labeling;

·

requirements related to the wording used for claims about nutrients, health claims, and statements of nutritional support;

·

labeling requirements for dietary or nutritional supplements for which “high potency” and “antioxidant” claims are made;

·

notification procedures for statements on dietary and nutritional supplements; and

·

pre-market notification procedures for new dietary ingredients in nutritional supplements.


The Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA) revised the existing provisions of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act concerning the composition and labeling of dietary supplements and defined dietary supplements to include vitamins, minerals, herbs, amino acids and other dietary substances used to supplement diets. DSHEA generally provides a regulatory framework to help ensure safe, quality dietary supplements and the dissemination of accurate information about such products. The FDA is generally prohibited from regulating active ingredients in dietary supplements as drugs unless product claims, such as claims that a product may heal, mitigate, cure or prevent an illness, disease or malady, trigger drug status.  


The Company is also subject to a variety of other regulations in the United States, including those relating to taxes, labor and employment, import and export, and intellectual property.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates


The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that re not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.


There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies as previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-KA for the year ended December 31, 2015 , which was filed with the SEC on January 25, 2017.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements


Recent accounting pronouncements are disclosed in Note 2 to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item1 of this Quarterly Report on form 10-Q.


Results of Operations   


You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations together with the unaudited financial statements and the notes to the unaudited financial statements included in this quarterly report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.


For the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015  


Operating expenses for the three month periods ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 were $226,044 and $74,692, an increase of $151,352. This was mainly due to increased salaries, wages, and related costs, increased consulting fees and increased legal expenses.


General and administrative expenses decreased $583, from $12,815 to $12,232, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2016, respectively. General and administrative expenses stayed relatively stable for these periods.


Salaries, wages and related expenses increased $39,946, from $48,444 to $88,388 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2016, respectively. This increase was mainly due to an increase in officers’ salaries.

 

Selling expenses increased $878, from $0 to $878, for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2016, respectively. This increase was mainly due to selling and marketing expenses related to the Company’s new products in 2016.


Consulting fees increased $107,567 from $833 to $108,400 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2016, due to an increase in overall consulting services.


Legal and professional fees increased $3,546, from $12,600 to $16,146 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2016 due to an increase in overall legal services.


Net interest expense increased $1,606 from $1,528 to $3,134 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2016. This increase was mainly due to increases in interest rates related to debt balances.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


Net cash used in operating activities totaled $41,582 for the three months ended March 31, 2016.


As of March 31, 2016, we had cash of $234,409. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 the Company raised $274,500 through the sale of common stock in private transactions.


We believe we will need outside financing to execute our business plan in 2017 and beyond. There is no guarantee we will receive the required financing to complete our business strategies, and it is uncertain whether future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations. Our auditor has stated in their opinion on our 2015 annual financial statements that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.


Off Balance Sheet Arrangements


We currently do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk


No disclosure required.


Item 4. Controls and Procedures


A. Disclosure Controls and Procedures


As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or Exchange Act, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2016. Based on this evaluation, these officers concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, these disclosure controls and procedures were not operating effectively  to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.


B. Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016 that materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.


Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2016. In making our assessment, we used the framework and criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO")(2013). Based on that assessment, our management has identified certain material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.


Our management concluded that as of March 31, 2016 our internal control over financial reporting was not effective, and that material weaknesses existed in the following areas as of March 31, 2016:


(1)

we do not employ full time in-house personnel with the technical knowledge to identify and address some of the reporting issues surrounding certain complex or non-routine transactions. With respect to material, complex and non-routine transactions, management has and will continue to seek guidance from third-party experts and/or consultants to gain a thorough understanding of these transactions;


(2)

we have inadequate segregation of duties consistent with the control objectives including but not limited to the disbursement process, transaction or account changes, and the performance of account reconciliations and approval ;


(3)

we have ineffective controls over the period end financial disclosure and reporting process caused by reliance on third-party experts and/or consultants and insufficient accounting staff; and


(4)

we do not have a functioning audit committee of the Board of Directors and our Board of Directors, in its performance of the functions generally associated with audit committees, lacks any independent members and lacks any outside directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls, approvals and procedures.




17




PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1. Legal Proceedings


From time to time, claims are made against us in the ordinary course of business, which could result in litigation. Claims and associated litigation are subject to inherent uncertainties and unfavorable outcomes could occur, such as monetary damages, fines, penalties or injunctions prohibiting us from selling one or more products or engaging in other activities. The occurrence of an unfavorable outcome in any specific period could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations for that period or future periods.


However, as of the date of this report, management believes the outcome of currently identified potential claims and lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.


Item 1A. Risk Factors


No material changes to risk factors have occurred as previously disclosed in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, filed with the SEC on October 31, 2016.
