NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

Note 1. Business and Organization

Outlook

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of our business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, we (BioLargo, Inc., and its subsidiaries, collectively “we” or the “Company”) had a net loss of $2,982,095 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, and at September 30, 2014, we had a working capital deficit of $358,586, current assets of $264,043, and an accumulated stockholders’ deficit of $78,274,871. The foregoing factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Ultimately, our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to attract significant new sources of capital, attain a reasonable threshold of operating efficiencies and achieve profitable operations by licensing or otherwise commercializing products incorporating our technology. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

We have been, and anticipate that we will continue to be, limited in terms of our capital resources. Our total cash and cash equivalents were $151,660 at September 30, 2014. We generated revenues of $46,821 in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, which amount was not sufficient to fund our operations. We generally have not had enough cash or sources of capital to pay our accounts payable and expenses as they arise, and have relied on the issuance of stock options and common stock, as well as extended payment terms with our vendors to operate. We will be required to raise substantial additional capital to expand our operations, including without limitation, hiring additional personnel, additional scientific and third-party testing, costs associated with obtaining regulatory approvals and filing additional patent applications to protect our intellectual property, and possible strategic acquisitions or alliances, as well as to meet our liabilities as they become due for the next 12 months.

As of September 30, 2014, we had $50,000 principal amount outstanding on a note payable (see Note 10), and $420,930 of outstanding accounts payable. (See Note 9.)

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, we received an aggregate $1,505,644 gross and $1,475,644 net proceeds pursuant to our private securities offerings, consisting of $162,000 from our Summer 2014 offering, $787,500 from our Summer 2013 offering, $197,144 from the exercise of our Winter 2012 Warrants, $84,000 from the exercise of our Summer 2013 Warrants, and $245,000 from the Clyra Spring 2014 private securities offering. (See Note 4.)

In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and related condensed consolidated statements of operations, cash flows, and stockholders’ equity include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, necessary for their fair presentation in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions. Estimates are used when accounting for stock-based transactions, account payables and accrued expenses and taxes, among others.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. We are still operating in the early stages of the sales and distribution process, and therefore our operating results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014, or for any other period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 30, 2014.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventories consisted of:

	December 31, 2013		September 30, 2014
Raw materials	$	26,080	$	57,044
Finished goods		3,750		5,632
Total inventory	$	29,830	$	62,676

Other Assets

Other Assets consists of payments made to purchase patents related to our efforts in commercializing the ISAN system.

For the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2014 we recorded amortization expense totaling $8,190 and $8,190, respectively.

We review intangible assets for potential impairment using our best estimates based on reasonable assumptions and projections. An impairment loss to write such assets down to their estimated fair values is necessary if the carrying values of the assets exceed their related undiscounted expected future cash flows. We also determine impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable. No impairment has been recorded for the period ended September 30, 2014. (See Note 3.)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the period reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates are used when accounting for stock-based transactions, uncollectible accounts receivable, asset depreciation and amortization, and taxes, among others.

Share-based Payments

All share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values.

For stock issued to consultants and other non-employees for services, we record the expense based on the fair value of the securities as of the date of the stock issuance. The issuance of stock warrants or options to non-employees are valued at the time of issuance utilizing the Black Scholes calculation and the amount is charged to expense.

During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2014 we recorded an aggregate $11,200 and $25,200 in selling general and administrative expense related to options issued pursuant to the 2007 Plan.

During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2014 we recorded an aggregate $607,371 and $641,874 in selling general and administrative expense related to options issued outside of the 2007 Plan.

BIOLARGO, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2014 we issued an aggregate 965,660 and 336,967 shares of our common stock to our officers in lieu of accrued and unpaid compensation and unreimbursed expenses totaling $289,689 and $180,193, respectively. (See Note 9).

During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2014 we issued an aggregate 242,602 and 450,005 shares of our common stock to third party vendors in lieu of accrued and unpaid compensation and unreimbursed expenses totaling $71,621 and $313,569, respectively. (See Note 9).

On March 28, 2014, we issued an aggregate 1,360,000 shares of our common stock to note payable holders in lieu of $584,800 note payable principal balance and related accrued interest. (See Note 5).

Non-Cash Transactions

We have established a policy relative to the methodology to determine the value assigned to each intangible we acquire, and/or services or products received for non-cash consideration of our common stock. The value is based on the market price of our common stock issued as consideration, at the date of the agreement of each transaction or when the service is rendered or product is received.

The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying these most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results of our financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized as risk and title to products transfers to the customer (which generally occurs at the time shipment is made), the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. We also may generate revenues from royalties and license fees from our intellectual property. Licensees typically pay a license fee in one or more installments and ongoing royalties based on their sales of products incorporating or using our licensed intellectual property. License fees are recognized over the estimated period of future benefit to the average licensee.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

We report basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) for common and common share equivalents. Basic EPS is computed by dividing reported earnings by the weighted average shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed by adding to the weighted average shares the dilutive effect if stock options and warrants were exercised into common stock. For the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2014, the denominator in the diluted EPS computation is the same as the denominator for basic EPS due to the anti-dilutive effect of the warrants and stock options on the Company’s net loss.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08 (ASU 2014-08), Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant and Equipment (Topic 360). ASU 2014-08 amends the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and requires additional disclosures about discontinued operations. Under ASU 2014-08, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations or that have a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results should be presented as discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. As the Company is engaged in research and development activities, the Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have any impact on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09), Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 will eliminate transaction- and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 will require that companies recognize revenue based on the value of transferred goods or services as they occur in the contract. ASU 2014-09 also will require 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. ASU 2014-09 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. Entities can transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have any impact on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.

In June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-10 (ASU 2014-10), Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation. ASU 2014-10 eliminated the requirement to present inception-to-date information about income statement line items, cash flows, and equity transactions, and clarifies how entities should disclosure the risks and uncertainties related to their activities. ASU 2014-10 also eliminated an exception provided to development stage entities in Consolidations (ASC Topic 810) for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity on the basis of the amount of investment equity that is at risk. The presentation and disclosure requirements in Topic 915 will no longer be required for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and the revised consolidation standards will take effect in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2014-10 is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.

In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15 (ASU 2014-15), Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-10). ASU 2014-15 provides guidance as to management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. In connection with preparing financial statements for each annual and interim reporting period, an entity’s management should evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’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). Management’s evaluation should be based on relevant conditions and events that are known and reasonably knowable at the date that the financial statements are issued (or at the date that the financial statements are available to be issued when applicable). Substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern exists when relevant conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, indicate that it is probable that the entity will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). ASU 2014-15 is effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-15 on the Company’s financial statement presentation and disclosures.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, authoritative guidance, if currently adopted, would have a material impact on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.

	Number of
	Shares			Price Range
Outstanding as of December 31, 2013		10,618,771		$	0.125 – 1.00

Outstanding as of September 30, 2014		8,438,122		$	0.125 – 1.00

To determine interest expense related to our outstanding warrants issued in conjunction with debt offerings, the fair value of each award grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and the calculated value is amortized over the life of the warrant. The determination of expense of warrants issued for services or settlement also uses the option-pricing model. The principal assumptions we used in applying this model were as follows:

	2013			2014
Risk free interest rate		0.12	%		.09 – 1.55	%
Expected volatility		113	%		184 – 349	%
Expected dividend yield		—			—
Forfeiture rate		—			—
Contractual life in years		1		1 – 5

The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S Treasury yields in effect at the time of grant. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of our common stock.

No warrants were issued in conjunction with debt or as compensation during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2014, as such there is no corresponding expense related to the warrants issued. Warrants reflecting those issued in the above tables are set forth immediately below.

We recognize compensation expense for stock option awards on a straight-line basis over the applicable service period of the award, which is the vesting period. Share-based compensation expense is based on the grant date fair value estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. The following methodology and assumptions were used to calculate share based compensation for the nine-month period ended September 30:

	2013						2014
	Non Plan			2007 Plan			Non Plan			2007 Plan
Risk free interest rate		2.64 – 2.66	%		2.19	%		2.54 – 2.73	%		2.63	%
Expected volatility		928	%		928	%		908 – 935	%		927	%
Expected dividend yield		—			—			—			—
Forfeiture rate		—			—			—			—
Expected life in years		7			7			7			7

Expected price volatility is the measure by which our stock price is expected to fluctuate during the expected term of an option. Expected volatility is derived from the historical daily change in the market price of our common stock, as we believe that historical volatility is the best indicator of future volatility.

The risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes calculation is based on the prevailing U.S Treasury yield as determined by the U.S. Federal Reserve. We have never paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

Historically, we have not had significant forfeitures of unvested stock options granted to employees and Directors. A significant number of our stock option grants are fully vested at issuance or have short vesting provisions. Therefore, we have estimated the forfeiture rate of our outstanding stock options as zero.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

Our Business

By leveraging our suite of patented and patent-pending intellectual property, which we refer to as the “BioLargo Technology”, our business strategy is to harness and deliver nature’s best disinfectant – iodine – in a safe, efficient, environmentally sensitive and cost-effective manner. The core of this innovative technology is the accurate and safe delivery of iodine in a wide range of forms, moieties and conditions. Iodine is an essential nutrient and all natural broad-spectrum disinfectant with no known microbial resistance. When used effectively, it can keep people and the world safer from disease and infection, and can be engaged as a powerful oxidant and catalyst to keep our water, earth, and air clean, safe, and healthy. Our goal is to target our capabilities to create and utilize iodine to improve the quality of life for people worldwide, to protect the environment, all while producing positive economic results for our customers, partners, and shareholders.

Our products offer a solution to an array of pervasive problems, including odor, moisture control, disinfection, wound healing and contaminated water. The iodine most of us are familiar with, sold in pharmacies and used by hospitals, has severe limitations – it is considered toxic, causes staining, and contains a limited dose of the active oxidizing ingredient. Our technology, on the other hand, directly addresses many of these shortcomings – we can deliver iodine’s oxidizing ingredient (“free iodine”) with precision, ranging from very small doses up to very large doses with more than 20 times the power of traditional iodine. We can deliver iodine so that it is both non-toxic and non-staining, thus extending its usefulness well beyond historical product applications. Consequently, we feel our best advantage is to leverage iodine’s breadth to develop uses and products that offer a competitive edge against other technologies. These uses can secure BioLargo its highest value proposition, resulting in sales and licensing opportunities.

The centerpieces of our technology are embodied by our patented and proprietary CupriDyne^®and its methods of delivery, the Isan™ System, and our BioLargo® AOS Filter (“Advanced Oxidation System”). These technologies offer a nearly seamless range of capabilities for the generation, delivery and control of iodine and implementation of iodine in most of its moieties.

The Canadian Subsidiary – Structure and Purpose

We formed a Canadian corporation in January 2014 with a primary objective to expand our research and development infrastructure as well as to take advantage of key relationships and business opportunities in Canada, including our work in the Canadian Oil Sands and with the University of Alberta. The corporation is a wholly owned subsidiary of California corporation BioLargo Water, Inc. our wholly owned subsidiary.

BioLargo Water – Milestone Accomplishments

BioLargo, Inc. was a co-founder of a leading NSERC backed research chair at the University of Alberta joined by the top five oil companies from Canada and other key stakeholders, including Environment Canada, EPCOR and Innovate Canada. The research chair was formed to evaluate all potential technical solutions to clean up the oil sands tailings ponds. Since co-founding the research chair, we have accomplished a series of important milestones that have broadened our scope of application, provided important validations of our technical claims, and refined our design. All of these factors contributed to our decision to move ahead with the formation of BioLargo Water and our increased focus on building infrastructure to take advantage of what we believe is a massive commercial opportunity for our AOS Filter as well as further technical advances for our other technologies. A few of the most recent milestones are:

●

the granting of the first patent covering the AOS Filter early this year; the definitive proof of technical claims work at the University of Alberta confirming high speed / low power / continuous flow potential to dismantle and remove difficult contaminants from water;

●

the expansion of work to include applications in food production and agriculture;

●

University confirmation of the AOS Filter’s role in high level disinfection with results that, by all accounts are, ‘unprecedented’;

●

Obtaining office space and laboratory resources at “Discovery Place” in Alberta to accelerate our journey towards commercialization and optimization of the AOS design;

●

Hiring PhD research team members (we currently have three on staff in Canada);

●

the identification and scoping out of two areas in which initial commercial trials make sense and are compelling, from both a technical and business case perspective: oils sands tailings ponds and food processing

●

the identification and scoping out of the technical and business case for the role of our AOS Filter as a technical addition to traditional filtration technologies

BioLargo Water - Staff

Our Canadian subsidiary is led by Richard Smith, PhD., who serves as its President under the direction of our President (from California) and Chief Science Officer (from Canada). We have recently hired two PhD researchers to join our team in Canada. We also contract with additional research professionals from time to time on a contract for hire basis, including researchers at the University of Alberta.

Dr. Smith our President of BioLargo Water, received an MSc in Veterinary Microbiology and a PhD in Viral Immunopathology from the University of Saskatchewan and he completed a postdoctoral fellowship in the Department of Medical Microbiology and Immunology at the University of Alberta. Dr. Smith has over 10 years of experience in the industry working with several Biotech Companies in Alberta, including ChemBioMed and VirRexx. In 2003, Dr. Smith joined the University of Alberta as Coordinator, Research Development and Industry Relations for the Department of Agricultural, Food and Nutritional Science (AFNS) where he assisted academics with research development and program funding. Dr. Smith was actively involved with the many facets of major grants, including NSERC, CRC and CFI applications.

BioLargo Water – Offices & Laboratory

We opened a new office and laboratory on the University of Alberta Campus at “Agri-Food Discovery Place” (AFDP), located at the University of Alberta’s south campus in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada to facilitate continued collaboration with the University's research teams on the AOS Filter pilot work as well as other research related activities that further BioLargo business. In operation since 2008, the AFDP is a unique facility, the very first in Canada serving not only industry clients but also the University of Alberta academic staff and Alberta’s Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development. The stated intent of AFDP is to build on applied research to bring it through commercialization to the marketplace, linking academic leadership with industry partners. AFDP can draw on the research expertise resident within the University of Alberta’s Food Science and Bio Resource Technology group, Department of Chemical & Materials Engineering, and Alberta’s Agriculture & Rural Development to assist industrial partners. We believe that these resources are integral to the refinement, validation and successful commercialization of our BioLargo AOS Filter.

Our work at Discovery Place is comprehensive, touching the oil sands opportunity, food processing and agriculture, filtration, advanced wound care, and even our consumer, household and personal care product opportunities.

BioLargo Water – Oil Sands Activities

The University of Alberta and BioLargo demonstrated in its proof of concept testing that the AOS Filter can:

●

Rapidly dismantle difficult soluble containments;

●

Operate as a continual free flowing system;

●

Function with very low power consumption; and

●

Compete at a fraction of the cost of other technologies.

Work to date has shown that the AOS Filter is able to reduce total acid-extractable organics in water at a rate never before demonstrated commercially. Based on proof of claim there is a belief BioLargo may have the lowest cost sustainable solution for the oil sands process-affected water. Having tested our technology, the esteemed University of Alberta agreed to enter into the AOS Filter industrial pilot-scale-testing phase, which we expect to confirm its commercial viability to treat oil sands tailings ponds.

Oil sands are commonly considered one of the most difficult water contamination situations. As such, a pilot project is expected to provide the groundwork for additional water treatment applications, including refining, fracking, remediation, agriculture and industrial waste among others. Our pilot project is still in the organizational phase and is largely dependent upon the approval of Canadian grant aid, which is still being negotiated. The project is planned to be led by Dr. Mohamed Gamal El-Din PhD, P.Eng, 45, of University of Alberta, internationally recognized for his fundamental and applied research in the area of water and wastewater treatment. Dr. Gamal El-Din’s work has resulted in important advancements in the area of advanced oxidation treatment and reactor design for fast-reaction environments, particularly the application of ozone treatment as an advanced oxidation process.

While technical progress has moved forward rapidly, namely design optimization and enhancements as well as proof of claim validations and patenting, the complete execution of this original plan will continue to be delayed in part until such time as appropriate funding is available to support fully-scaled trials. Discussions with appropriate funding sources are continuing. However, regardless of the grant funding delays, we have continued to move the science, product development, and pilot opportunities forward. We are in currently in process with multiple grant aid authorities.

Food Processing & Agriculture

We expanded our work on the AOS Filter to include the guidance and leadership of a prominent research scientist at the University of Alberta Department of Agricultural, Food and Nutritional Science, Lynn McMullen, PhD. Dr. McMullen is a recognized expert, widely published in the areas of food packaging and food microbiology. Her teaching responsibilities include food microbiology, food safety and food fermentations. She is an advisor to the Canadian food industry.

Dr. McMullen has tested and validated our AOS Filter for use in food and agriculture. Her tests show unprecedented effectiveness in destroying highly concentrated contaminants in sample water, including Listeria and Salmonella. Although the testing is applicable in many areas, food safety was a primary concern of this most recent work. In our September 2014 press release announcing these results, she commented, “The AOS Filter technology could be highly efficient in solving food safety problems and may be applied to improve food quality with the potential to improve storage life. The potential applications of the BioLargo AOS filter in the food industry could be endless -- from primary commodities to finished food products.” We agree.

She further explained, “At the foundation of the AOS Filter is its efficiency in generating a highly oxidative state. The data supports its potential to accomplish high-level disinfection that can be useful in multiple markets including food processing and agriculture production. Extremely high levels of performance [disinfection] were achieved during testing and we are excited to expand the work with BioLargo to other applications targeting food safety concerns.”

Given this work, we intend to expand our focus to the agriculture and food processing industry.

This validation thus far further demonstrates the effectiveness of our AOS Filter technology and it points to the growing excitement for our significant commercial opportunity across multiple industries. By expanding the work to include high-level disinfection within the food and agriculture industry, we can confidently point to the expanded scope of our future commercial markets.

Testing / Validation-

The infrastructure that we have put in place at the University of Alberta affords us the resources to validate a host of technical claims for all of our BioLargo Technologies, including our AOS Filter, products that rely upon our Cupridyne formulas, and our Isan technology.

Grant Aid

We have a number of grant applications in process. We expect to receive grants at BioLargo Water and we are active in supporting cooperative research projects for grant aid in which the University of Alberta would also be the primary recipient. We are careful to avoid situations in which our intellectual property would or could be impaired. We are actively seeking collaborators from industry as well as from research fields. We believe that a number of applications of our technology are in the national interest in both Canada and the USA. We believe that this type of capital resource would be highly beneficial to our company and our shareholders, and as such are pursuing this venue with precision.

Design Work

Our AOS Filter should be considered to be in the ‘design phase’ of development. The proof of claim is accomplished. We are now optimizing the design of the AOS Filter so that it can be easily scaled up or down and can function with precision to meet the demands of specific challenges from industry. As financial resources come available, whether through our own capital and/or grant aid and/or strategic alliances, we expect this work to accelerate. We believe our system is scalable and our technical claims will be replicated to a commercially scalable and effective design.

Pilot

Our pilot work is in process. Our current work to optimize our design for functional and effective use in specific areas of commercial uses, (like oil sands or food processing) requires knowledge of each industry in order to meet the needs and value proposition of each segment. We have contributors in both of these areas to guide as we create a functional design. We also have technical advisors in the food and beverage, oil and gas and drinking water industries. As financial resources are more available, we can accelerate the actual engineering, manufacturing/assembly and eventually on-site commercial trials to scale. Absent more substantial financial resources, as has been the case in our most recent history, our work continues, albeit at a slower pace. We believe that our work in each of these areas is valuable and substantial from a scientific perspective and will lead to substantial commercial opportunities.

Testing Joint Venture / Strategic Alliance

We are evaluating a proposal to work closely with a leading independent water quality testing organization. The plan would entail the creation of a testing laboratory in our offices in which our AOS Filter would be constructed to process water samples from customers around the globe. Understanding that no two waters are alike, we know that any practical treatment system must be able to deal with the unique characteristics of any customer waters. Under this plan, we would use the AOS Filter to treat the sample water. The treated water sample would be tested by our strategic alliance partner, (the independent lab), to verify the AOS Filter’s effectiveness at dismantling or removing these contaminants. We believe the technical challenges faced by industry and increasing regulatory compliance requirements are so difficult and potentially so capital intensive that these potential customers would gladly pay a nominal charge for this type of screening tool, so that the client could use this information as a way to refine their budgets and capital expenditures to help insure that any solution they invest in will actually work and determine if our AOS Filter is a commercially viable solution for their need. This type of arrangement would provide BioLargo Water a way to refine and optimize its system while, at the same time gather substantial data and generate meaningful revenues. This plan is in its formative stages and requires additional capital. We are working towards this plan as quickly as we are able.

Isan System License

On August 8, 2014, we and our co-owner Peter Holdings Ltd. entered into a manufacturing and distribution license agreement for our Isan system technology with Clarion Water, a new operating division of InsulTech Manufacturing, LLC (www.insultech.com). Insultech has over 20 years of commercial success around the globe representing hundreds of millions in sales of technical products to Fortune 100 companies.

The Isan system leverages the power of iodine to provide the world's most effective disinfection dosing systems. It has been referred to as one of the most important technical advancements in food safety in the past 20 years. It won a “top 50 water company award” by the Artemis Project in 2010 and a DuPont Innovation Award for its excellence in science and innovation in 2004.

Per the terms of the agreement, Clarion receives the exclusive global manufacturing and distribution rights to the Isan system and use of all historical data to support its commercial focus. Clarion will pay BioLargo a patent maintenance fee of $25,000 per year paid quarterly in arrears, and royalties on revenue equal to 10% paid quarterly in arrears. There are no minimum royalty payments for the first two years, but at year three (beginning July 1, 2016) the minimum royalties are $50,000 per quarter, at year four $75,000 per quarter, and at year five and onward $100,000 per quarter. The intellectual property subject to the license agreement includes all intellectual property related to the Isan System, including all patents, trademarks, proprietary knowledge, and other similar know-how or rights relating to or arising out of the Isan System or the patents related to the Isan System. The agreement contains other terms and conditions typically found in intellectual property license agreements.

Commercial, Household and Personal Care Products

CHAPP includes broad product categories and many opportunities for the application of our technology. It is defined by the ability to utilize similar, if not identical, consumption products in multiple market segments. Detergents, single use absorbents, wipes, products that provide odor or disinfection control, and stain removal all fall within this category. Packaging ranges from consumer sizes of a few ounces to bulk packaging for commercial or industrial use. We are currently marketing products in this category under four brands – Odor-No-More, Nature’s Best Solution, Deodorall, and NBS - direct to consumers, through retail stores, and most recently, to the U.S. Government.

We have made great strides in our work with the U.S. Government so far this year. In May 2014, our line of “Suction Canister Solidifiers” were issued U.S. Government “National Stocking Numbers”, making them available for order by various government and military agencies, and the Army Medical Material Agency (USAMMA) will include the "Suction Canister Solidifiers" for use in triage and surgery in future U.S. Army troop deployments. Some small troop deployment orders have been placed, and we expect those to continue as existing supplies need to be replaced. In October, we filled a $50,000 order of our Specimen Transport Solidifiers to the Defense Logistics Agency (“DLA”), through our distribution partner Downeast Logistics (the revenues will be reported in the fourth quarter). We are actively bidding on DLA requests for product bids for our Suction Canister Solidifiers, our Specimen Transport Solidifiers, and other products.

We are continuing our efforts to generate “private label” clients. We have fulfilled some small orders for various products that we produced under a third party’s private brand. We are meeting with new potential customers for private label opportunities. We also are in discussions with potential strategic alliance partners to provide large scale manufacturing and distribution should we secure orders for the private label business opportunities.

Additionally, we continue to seek relationships with established companies for potential technology licenses in which our technology would be incorporated into new products for existing brands, or established products.

Our sales in the CHAPP product category to-date are nominal. Product development, sales, and marketing require significant financial resources that we currently do not have. As such, our progress in this area has been slower than we had hoped. We are actively marketing the technology for licensure to established companies in this industry segment, and are continuing to expand our proof of claims and product designs for various odor and moisture control applications.

Advanced Wound Care – Clyra Medical Technologies Subsidiary

In 2012 we formed a subsidiary Clyra Medical Technologies, Inc. (“Clyra”) to commercialize our technology in the medical products industry, with an initial focus on advanced wound care. Our advanced wound care products combine broad-spectrum antimicrobial capabilities with iodine’s natural and well-understood metabolic pathway to promote healing. We believe these benefits, along with reduced product costs as compared with other antimicrobials, give our products a competitive advantage in the marketplace.

Clyra is currently in the product development and testing phase for a wound gel and wound cleaner product, and intends ultimately to apply for FDA 510(k) approval for these two products to be sold into the advanced wound care industry. This development work is primarily being conducted in conjunction with our research at the University of Alberta, and we believe is nearing completion. While no assurances can be made about the ultimate success any FDA applications once filed, given the forward looking nature of such events, Clyra has retained and engaged a team of experts in the area to guide it through the process. The product development process has been more time consuming than originally anticipated, and our limited financial resources have impacted our ability to complete the process. Given the timing of the FDA process, and the requirement for approval before product can be sold, we do not anticipate product sales until 2015. In the interim, we will continue to seek licensing partners, secure additional and dedicated capital resources for Clyra, and refine our product roll out, marketing, and distribution plans. A U.S. patent was recently issued for these products under development.

This patent covers our technology as used in products being developed by our subsidiary, Clyra Medical Technologies.

Results of Operations—Comparison of the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.

Revenue

We generated $16,448 and $46,821 in product revenues during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014, and $18,418 and $52,764 in product revenues during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013. In addition, in the three-month period ended September 30, 2013 we recorded $100,000 in license revenue (initially recorded as a customer deposit in a 2011 transaction with Central Garden & Pet). Our product revenue in the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013, consisted primarily of sales of our Deodorall branded sports equipment spray and Odor-No-More bedding additive. Our product revenue for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014, consisted primarily of sales of our Odor-No-More bedding additive and our Nature’s Best Science Suction Canister Solidifier and Specimen Transport Solidifier.

Cost of Goods Sold

Our cost of goods sold was $7,731 or 47% and $19,184 or 41% of revenues, excluding the $100,000 license revenue in 2013, for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014, as compared with $8,381 or 46% and $23,563 or 45% of revenues for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013. Our cost of goods sold includes costs of raw materials, contract manufacturing, and proportions of salaries and expenses related to the sales and marketing efforts of our Odor-No-More branded products. Because we have not achieved a meaningful revenue base, and our number of products is increasing, the inclusion of the fixed costs related to the product development and manufacturing increases our cost of goods disproportionately, resulting in high percentage fluctuations.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, General and Administrative expenses were $652,432 and $2,208,461 for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014, compared to $536,026 and $1,470,936 for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013, an increase of $116,406 and $737,525, respectively. The increase in 2014 is primarily attributable to the non-cash expense associated with the stock options and common stock issued during 2014 for officer compensation and consulting and professional expenses. The largest components of our selling general and administrative expenses were:

a. Salaries and Payroll-related Expenses: These expenses were $169,566 and $505,849 for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014, compared to $140,217 and $401,457 for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013, an increase of $29,349 and $104,392, respectively. The increase is primarily related to additional non-cash expense related to the option issued to our Chief Financial Officer in 2014.

b. Consulting Expenses: These expenses were $191,460 and $501,220 for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014, compared to $72,167 and $255,383 for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013, an increase of $119,293 and $245,837, respectively. As noted above, the increase is primarily attributable to the non-cash expense associated with the stock options and common stock issued in 2014.

c. Professional Fees: These expenses were $85,428 and $280,685 for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014, compared to $134,431 and $287,072 for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013, a decrease of $49,003 and $6,387, respectively. The decrease is primarily attributable to reduced non-cash expense associated with the fair value of the stock options issued in 2014 compared to the non-cash expense associated with the fair value of stock options issued to professionals in 2013.

d. Investor Relations. These expenses were $87,628 and $352,435 for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014, compared to $2,255 and $10,988 for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013, an increase of $85,373 and $341,447, respectively. The increase is due to the retention of an investor and public relations firm that began work in January 2014 as the Company has increased its public market profile.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses were $186,973 and $479,954 for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014, compared to $267,861 and $603,568 for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013, a decrease of $80,888 and $123,614. The research and development expenses have declined this year as the major expenditures for the proof of claim for the AOS filter have been satisfied. The levels of spending are consistent with the expansion of our technology into the wound care and water treatment industries and may increase in the future.

Interest expense

Interest expense totaled $3,665 and $313,117 for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014, compared to $2,528 and $240,556 for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013, an increase of $1,137 and $72,561, respectively. The three-month period activity is largely due to the interest accrued on the Notes Payable and the lack of new warrant issuances in the quarter. The decrease in the nine month period is the result of the difference in the fair value of the winter 2012 Warrant one-year extension of $233,000 issued in 2013 compared to the interest expense incurred related to the conversion of our note payables in the first quarter of 2014.

Net Loss

Net loss for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014 was $837,083 and $2,982,095, a loss of $0.01 and $0.04 per share, compared to a net loss for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013 of $799,108 and $2,194,049, a loss of $0.01 and $0.03 per share. The net loss per share is remaining consistent because the increase in expenses are offset by the increase in the weighted average number of shares issued and outstanding.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have been, and anticipate that we will continue to be, limited in terms of our capital resources. Until we are successful in commercializing products or negotiating and securing payments for licensing rights from prospective licensing candidates, we expect to continue to have operating losses. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $151,660 at September 30, 2014. We had a working capital deficit of $358,586 as of September 30, 2014, compared with negative working capital of $605,961 as of December 31, 2013. We had negative cash flow from operating activities of $1,415,421 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, compared to a negative cash flow from operating activities of $827,474 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013. We used cash from financing activities to fund operations. Our cash position is insufficient to meet our continuing anticipated expenses or fund anticipated operating expenses. Accordingly, we will be required to raise significant additional capital to sustain operations and further implement our business plan and we may be compelled to reduce or curtail certain activities to preserve cash.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of our business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, we had a net loss of $2,982,095 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, and an accumulated stockholders’ deficit of $78,274,871as of September 30, 2014. The foregoing factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Ultimately, our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to attract significant new sources of capital, attain a reasonable threshold of operating efficiencies and achieve profitable operations by licensing or otherwise commercializing products incorporating our BioLargo technology. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

As of September 30, 2014, we had $50,000 principal amount outstanding on a note payable, and $420,930 of outstanding accounts payable.

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, we received an aggregate $1,505,644 gross and $1,475,644 net proceeds pursuant to our private securities offerings, consisting of $787,500 from our Summer 2013 offering, $197,144 from the exercise of our Winter 2012 Warrants, $80,000 from the exercise of our Summer 2013 Warrants, and $245,000 from the Clyra Spring 2014 private securities offering.

We will be required to raise substantial additional capital to expand our operations, including without limitation, hiring additional personnel, additional scientific and third-party testing, costs associated with obtaining regulatory approvals and filing additional patent applications to protect our intellectual property, and possible strategic acquisitions or alliances, as well as to meet our liabilities as they become due for the next 12 months. We may also be compelled to reduce or curtail certain activities to preserve cash. We have been, and may continue to be, required to financially support the operations our subsidiaries, none of which are operating at a positive cash flow.

In addition to the private securities offerings discussed above, we are continuing to explore numerous alternatives for our current and longer-term financial requirements, including additional raises of capital from investors in the form of convertible debt or equity. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise any additional capital. No commitments are in place as of the date of the filing of this report for any such additional financings. Moreover, in light of the current unfavorable economic conditions, we do not believe that any such financing is likely to be in place in the immediate future.

It is also unlikely that we will be able to qualify for bank or other financial institutional debt financing until such time as our operations are considerably more advanced and we are able to demonstrate the financial strength to provide confidence for a lender, which we do not currently believe is likely to occur for at least the next 12 months or more.

If we are unable to raise sufficient capital, we may be required to curtail some of our operations, including efforts to develop, test, market, evaluate and license our BioLargo technology. If we were forced to curtail aspects of our operations, there could be a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, valuation of intangible assets and investments, and share-based payments. We base our estimates on anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, including assumptions as to future events. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results that differ from our estimates could have a significant adverse effect on our operating results and financial position. We believe that the following significant accounting policies and assumptions may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity than others.

The methods, estimates and judgments the Company uses in applying these most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results of the Company reports in its financial statements.

We anticipate that revenue will come from two sources: sales of Commercial, Household and Personal Care products and from royalties and license fees from our intellectual property. Commercial, Household and Personal Care revenue is recognized upon shipment of the product and all other contingencies have been met. Licensees typically pay a license fee in one or more installments and ongoing royalties based on their sales of products incorporating or using our licensed intellectual property. License fees are recognized over the estimated period of future benefit to the average licensee.

It the Company’s policy to expense share based payments as of the date of grant in accordance with Auditing Standard Codification Topic 718 “Share-Based Payment.” Application of this pronouncement requires significant judgment regarding the assumptions used in the selected option pricing model, including stock price volatility and employee exercise behavior. Most of these inputs are either highly dependent on the current economic environment at the date of grant or forward-looking expectations projected over the expected term of the award. As a result, the actual impact of adoption on future earnings could differ significantly from our current estimate.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Inflation

Inflation affects the cost of raw materials, goods and services we use. In recent years, inflation overall has been modest, but we believe inflation may increase our costs in the near future. We seek to mitigate the adverse effects of inflation primarily through improved productivity and strategic buying initiatives. Additionally, some of our products incorporate oil-based polymers, which are subject to price fluctuations based on the price of crude oil, as well as shortages.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

We conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Report.

Our procedures have been designed to ensure that the information relating to our company, including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that as of the evaluation date our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
