NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2013 AND 2012
 
NOTE 1- FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared by Lightwave Logic, Inc. (the Company).  These statements include all adjustments (consisting only of its normal recurring adjustments) which management believes necessary for a fair presentation of the statements and have been prepared on a consistent basis using the accounting polices described in the Summary of Accounting Policies included in the 2012 Annual Report.  Certain financial information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, although the Company firmly believes that the accompanying disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.   The interim operating results for the three and six months ending June 30, 2013 may not be indicative of operating results expected for the full year.

Loss per Share
 
The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) 260, “Earnings per Share”, resulting in the presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share.  Because the Company reported a net loss in 2013 and 2012, common stock equivalents, including stock options and warrants were anti-dilutive; therefore, the amounts reported for basic and dilutive loss per share were the same.
 
Comprehensive Income
 
The Company follows FASB ASC 220.10, “Reporting Comprehensive Income.”  Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income.  Since the Company has no items of other comprehensive income, comprehensive income (loss) is equal to net income (loss).
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

As of June 30, 2013, there are no recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted which would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

As of June 30, 2013 and for the period then ended, there were no recently adopted accounting pronouncements that had a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 2 – MANAGEMENT’S PLANS
 
The Company currently has a cash position of approximately $3,020,000.  Based upon the current cash position and expenditures of approximately $250,000 per month and no debt service, management believes the Company has sufficient funds currently to finance its operations through July 2014.  In May 2011, the Company signed an agreement with an institutional investor to sell up to $20 million of common stock. Under the agreement subject to certain conditions and at the Company's sole discretion, the institutional investor has committed to invest up to $20 million in the Company's common stock over a 30-month period with the remaining available amount of $13,150,001.  The Company filed a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission covering the resale of the shares that may be issued to the institutional investor.  The institutional investor is obligated to make purchases as the Company directs in accordance with the agreement that may be terminated by the Company at any time, without cost or penalty. The agreement expires in December 2013.  Sales of shares will be made in specified amounts and at prices that are based upon the market prices of the Company's common stock.  In June 2013 the Company signed a new agreement with an institutional investor to resale up to $20 million of common stock.  Under the agreement subject to certain conditions and at the Company’s sole discretion, the institutional investor has committed to invest up to $20 million in the Company’s common stock over a 30-month period.  The Company will file a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, within 10 business days after filing its June 30, 2013 Form 10-Q, covering the resale of the shares that may be issued to the institutional investor.  Additional funding may also be provided by the exercise of 1,178,750 outstanding warrants at an exercise price of $1.00 and $1.25, which may raise additional capital up to approximately $2,285,000. The 1,178,750 warrants expire on September 15, 2013.   With additional capital raised, the Company expects to achieve a level of revenues attractive enough to fulfill its development activities and achieve a level of revenue adequate to support the Company’s business model.  The Company continues to develop and test its next generation Electro-Optic and third-order material platform to support and cultivate potential customers, strategic partners and develop photonic devices.  Management believes the Company’s initial revenue stream will be in prototype devices, application and non-recurring engineering charges, and material charges for specialty non-linear application prior to moving into full commercialization and production.

Item 2
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations provides information that management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our plans and financial condition. The following selected financial information is derived from our historical financial statements and should be read in conjunction with such financial statements and notes thereto set forth elsewhere herein and the "Forward-Looking Statements" explanation included herein.

Overview
 
Lightwave Logic, Inc. (then known as Eastern Idaho Internet Service, Inc.) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada in 1997, where we engaged in the business of marketing Internet services until June 30, 1998 when our operations were discontinued.  We were then inactive until we acquired PSI-TEC Corporation as our wholly owned subsidiary on July 14, 2004, at which time our name was changed to PSI-TEC Holdings, Inc.  On October 20, 2006, we completed a parent-subsidiary merger with PSI-TEC Corporation whereby we were the surviving corporation of the merger, and our name was changed to Third-Order Nanotechnologies, Inc. On March 10, 2008, we changed our name to Lightwave Logic, Inc. to better suit our strategic business plan and to facilitate stockholder recognition of our Company and our business. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us” and other similar terms means Lightwave Logic, Inc., a Nevada corporation.

We are a development stage, organic nonlinear materials and electro-optical device company. Our primary area of expertise is the chemical synthesis of chromophore dyes used in the development of organic Application Specific Electro-Optic Polymers (ASEOP) and Organic Non-Linear All-Optical Polymers (NLAOP) that have high electro-optic and optical activity. Both types of materials are thermally and photo-chemically stable, which we believe could have utility across a broad range of applications in devices that address markets like, telecommunication, data communications, high-speed computing and photovoltaic cells.  Secondarily, the company is developing proprietary electro-optical and all-optical devices utilizing the advanced capabilities of our materials for the application in the fields mentioned above.

In order to transmit digital information at extremely high-speeds (wide bandwidth) over the Internet, it is necessary to convert the electrical signals produced by a computer into optical signals for transmission over long-distance fiber-optic cable.   Molecularly engineered materials known as electro-optic polymers when designed into optical devices perform the actual conversion of an electrical signal to an optical signal.

We are currently developing electro-optic polymers that promise performance many times faster than any technology currently available and that have unprecedented thermal stability. High-performance electro-optic materials produced by our Company have demonstrated stability as high as 350 degrees Celsius.  Stability above 250 degrees Celsius is necessary for vertical integration into many semi-conductor production lines. In December 2011 one of our non-linear optical polymers, Perkinamine IndigoTM demonstrated an unusually high electro-optical effect of greater than 250 picometers per volt on 1.5 micron films with excellent thermal and photo stability. Independent research laboratories at Photon-X and The University of Colorado confirmed these characteristics. We continued our development program on Perkinamine IndigoTM to better understand the properties that gave us the results reported in December 2011.  More recent measurements have shown an electro-optical effect closer to 100 picometers per volt in a 500 nm thin films. We are continuing to perform development work to better understand these results.

Our non-linear all optical polymers have demonstrated resonantly enhanced Third-order properties about 2,630 times larger than fused silica, which means that they are very photo-optically active in the absence of an RF layer.  In this way they differ from our electro-optical polymers and are considered more advanced next-generation materials.
 
 
24

 

 
Our revenue model relies substantially on the assumption that we will be able to successfully develop non-linear polymer materials and photonic device products, which will use non-linear all-optical and electro-optic polymers for applications within the industries described below. When appropriate, we intend to create specific materials for each of these applications and use our proprietary knowledge base to continue to enhance its discoveries.

telecommunications/data communications
·
backplane optical interconnects
·
cloud computing and data centers
·
photovoltaic cells
·
medical applications
·
satellite reconnaissance
·
navigation systems
·
radar applications
·
optical filters
·
special light modulators
·
all-optical transistors
·
entertainment
 
 
To be successful, we must, among other things:
 
·
Develop and maintain collaborative relationships with strategic partners;
·
Continue to expand our research and development efforts for our products;
·
Develop and continue to improve on our manufacturing processes and maintain stringent quality controls;
·
Produce commercial quantities of our products at commercially acceptable prices;
·
Rapidly respond to technological advancements;
·
Attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel; and
·
Obtain and retain effective intellectual property protection for our products and technology.
 
We believe that Moore's Law (a principle which states the number of transistors on a silicon chip doubles approximately every eighteen months) will create markets for our high-performance electro-optic materials and photonic device products.
 
Plan of Operation
 
Since inception, we have been engaged primarily in the research and development of our polymer materials technologies and potential photonic device products. We are devoting significant resources to engineer next-generation electro-optic polymers for future applications to be utilized by electro-optic device manufacturers, such as telecommunications component and systems manufacturers, networking and switching suppliers, semiconductor companies, aerospace companies, government agencies and internal device development. We expect to continue to develop products that we intend to introduce to these rapidly changing markets and to seek to identify new markets. We expect to continue to make significant operating and capital expenditures for research and development activities.
 
 
25

 
 
As we move from a development stage company to a product supplier, we expect that our financial condition and results of operations will undergo substantial change. In particular, we expect to record both revenue and expense from product sales, to incur increased costs for sales and marketing and to increase general and administrative expense. Accordingly, the financial condition and results of operations reflected in our historical financial statements are not expected to be indicative of our future financial condition and results of operations.
 
On September 25, 2006 we obtained independent laboratory results that confirmed the thermal stability of our PerkinamineTM electro-optic materials. Thermal stability as high as 350 degrees Celsius was confirmed, significantly exceeding many other then commercially available high performance electro-optic materials, such as CLD-1 that exhibits thermal degradation in the range of 250 degrees Celsius to 275 degrees Celsius. This high temperature stability of our materials eliminates a major obstacle to vertical integration of electro-optic polymers into standard microelectronic manufacturing processes (e.g. wave/vapor-phase soldering) where thermal stability of at least 300 degrees Celsius is required. In independent laboratory tests, ten-percent material degradation, a common evaluation of overall thermal stability, did not occur until our PerkinamineTM materials base was exposed to temperatures as high as 350 degrees Celsius, as determined by Thermo-Gravimetric Analysis (TGA). The test results supported our Company's progress to introduce our materials into commercial applications such as optical interconnections, high-speed telecom and datacom modulators, and military/aerospace components.

On September 26, 2006, we were awarded the 2006 Electro-Optic Materials Technology Innovation of the Year Award by Frost & Sullivan.  Frost & Sullivan's Technology Innovation of the Year Award is bestowed upon candidates whose original research has resulted in innovations that have, or are expected to bring, significant contributions to multiple industries in terms of adoption, change, and competitive posture. This award recognizes the quality and depth of our Company's research and development program as well as the vision and risk-taking that enabled us to undertake such an endeavor.

In July 2007, our Company developed an innovative process to integrate our unique architecture into our anticipated commercial devices, whereby dendritic spacer systems are attached to its core chromophore. In the event we are successful in developing a commercially viable product, we believe these dendrimers will reduce the cost of manufacturing materials and reduce the cost and complexity of tailoring the material to specific customer requirements.

In March 2008, we commenced production of our first prototype photonic chip, which we delivered to Photon-X, LLC to fabricate a prototype polymer optical modulator and measure its technical properties. In June 2009 we released test results conducted by Dr. C.C. Teng that re-confirmed our previous test results.

In August 2009, Photon-X, LLC commenced a compatibility study, process sequences, and fabricated wafers/chips containing arrays of phase modulators. The first one hundred plus modulators (bench top devices) were completed at the end of October 2009, and were successfully characterized for insertion loss, Vpi, modulation dynamic range and initial frequency response in March 2010. The multi-step manufacturing process we utilized to fabricate our modulators involved exposing our proprietary PerkinamineTM materials to extreme conditions that is typically found in standard commercial manufacturing settings. Our step-by-step analysis throughout the fabrication process demonstrated to us that our PerkinamineTM materials could successfully withstand each step of the fabrication process without damage.

           In August 2009, we retained Perdix, Inc. in Boulder, Colorado to help us identify and build prototype products for high growth potential target markets in fiber optic telecommunications systems. During October 2009, we initiated the development and production of our prototype amplitude modulator, which can ultimately be assembled into 1- and 2- dimensional arrays that are useful for optical computing applications, such as encryption and pattern recognition. We expected our initial prototype amplitude modulator to be completed by the end of the second quarter 2010. We continued to work on this device throughout 2010 and discovered its design had limitations so we terminated the program to take a different design approach. We embarked on the new design approach in 2011 with another partner, Boulder Nonlinear Systems (BNS). A feasibility study with the new design partner was started in late 2011. This research and development program continued through 2012 into the first half of 2013, and it is expected to be completed by the end of the third quarter of 2013. We expect the results of this study will guide us on how to better design our prototype spatial light modulator.

In December 2009, we filed our sixth patent application. The provisional application covers stable free radical chromophores for use in Non-Linear optical applications. The new polymeric electro-optic material has enormous potential in spatial light modulation and all optical signal processing (light switching light).

In March 2010, we successfully concluded the electrical and optical performance testing stage of our proof of principle prototype phase modulator and began application engineering of our technology in customer design environments.  The Company is working directly with interested large system suppliers to attempt to engineer specific individual electro-optic materials in support of their proprietary device designs, which would be implemented in next generation products.
 
In October of 2010, we completed the concept stage of a novel design for an advanced optical computing application and moved forward into the design stage with Celestech, Inc. of Chantilly, Virginia.  This application is presently on hold while Celestech continues to engage its customer on its schedule. Additionally, we are working on three other applications with Celestech, two of which are in white paper design stage. Development of these applications continued through 2012 and into 2013. If these projects continue to move forward, they will incorporate one or more of our Company’s advanced electro-optical polymer materials.
 
In October of 2010, we announced the results of testing performed by Lehigh University that demonstrated the Third-order non-linear properties of our proprietary molecules in the Perkinamine NRTM chromophore class.  Lehigh University determined that the material was 100 times stronger than the highest off-resonance small molecule currently known.  They also determined that it was 2,600 times more powerful than fused silica and demonstrated extremely fast (less than 1 picosecond) photo-induced non-linear response that would be capable of modulation at a rate of 1 THz (terahertz). Additional testing at Lehigh University of the Company’s other Perkinamine class of materials demonstrated Third-order non-linear properties, which may have utility in all optical switches.

In February and April 2011, respectively, the United States Patent Office granted our Company two patents:  US Patent No. 7,894,695 covering our Tricyclic Spacer System for Non-Linear Optical Devices and US Patent No. 7,919,619 for Heterocyclical Chromophore Architectures directed to our PerkinamineTM chromophores.  These composition of matter patents taken together protect the core of our electro-optical materials portfolio.
 
In March 2011, we entered into a research and development agreement with the City University of New York’s (“CUNY”) Laboratory for Nano Micro Photonics (LaNMP) to develop Third-order non-linear devices. The combination of LaNMP’s device capabilities together with our materials expertise should accelerate the development of all-optical devices. The agreement ran through the end of 2011. The goal of the project was to fabricate and test slot waveguides embedded with two types of nonlinear optical polymers obtained from our Company. These two polymers were PerkinamineTM and Perkinamine NRTM. In CUNY’s final report it showed they successfully demonstrated that the Perkinamine and Perkinamine NR survived their 170o C processing temperature without degradation. According to their report, they were successful in one processing run wherein they showed the possibility to realize waveguides with very smooth sidewalls. Reflectivity measurements carried out under optical pumping showed phase shift in the PerkinamineTM material. We are continuing research in this area with the University of Colorado, Boulder.

In March 2011 the City University of New York’s Laboratory for Nano Micro Photonics (LaNMP) fabricated our first-ever all optical waveguides using PerkinamineTM and Perkinamine NRTM chromophores.  It is anticipated that LaNMP could use this device architecture to develop various all-optical devices including an all-optical transistor. This effort, starting with an all-optical switch, is being continued at the University of Colorado, Boulder through an agreement entered into in January 2013.

In December 2011, we announced the discovery of a new material named Perkinamine IndigoTM.  We believe this represents a major advancement in the field of organic nonlinear optical materials.  The material demonstrated an unusually high electro-optical effect of greater than 250 picometers per volt with excellent thermal and photo stability.  Independent research laboratories at Photon-X and The University of Colorado confirmed these characteristics. We do, however, have to do a complete characterization of these materials to fully understand what material properties are causing these results before any of our partners will move forward with this material. The potential large system supplier we are working with will be characterizing the material at their location using their proprietary devices while we continue our work with the University of Colorado, Boulder. In order to further characterize our Perkinamine class of materials, including Perkinamine IndigoTM, the Company has developed Mach-Zehnder interferometry and standard Teng-Man test set-ups in its own facilities. The Company’s optical lab is testing and measuring the electro-optic coefficent of our materials.

In June 2012 we opened a new internal research laboratory facility in Newark, Delaware in the Delaware Technology Park, near the University of Delaware. This new lab facility enables us to synthesize and test our materials in the same facility and will help us accelerate our development efforts. It is equipped with state of the art equipment necessary to expand our ability to conduct synthetic chemistry in much more tightly controlled conditions. Additionally, we have equipped a separate advanced optical laboratory at the same location where the necessary testing of material candidates will be performed as they emerge from our new synthesis laboratory.  

In July 2012 we entered into an agreement with The University of Colorado, Boulder to conduct analytical testing and to carry out studies that will give a better understanding of the properties of a new class of composite organic electro-optic materials. This class of materials is our Perkinamine IndigoTM. The processing and measurements are to be carried out primarily at the Guided Wave Optics Laboratory (GWOL). The work is being done in close collaboration with Company personnel.

In September 2012 the United States Patent Office granted our Company U.S. Patent No. 8,269,004, entitled Heterocyclical Anti-Aromatic Chromophore Architectures.  This patent protects the unique molecular structures that give our chromophores the thermal stability necessary to withstand CMOS processing temperatures without compromising electro-optical effects.

In November 2012 Australia granted our Company Australian Patent No. AU2005302506 entitled Heterocyclical Chromophore Architectures.  This patent protects the unique molecular structures that give our chromophores the thermal stability necessary to withstand CMOS processing temperatures without compromising electro-optical effects.

In February 2013 we delivered to a potential large system supplier customer prototype devices that were coated with our advanced organic nonlinear electro-optical polymer, Perkinamine IndigoTM. Tests conducted by the University of Colorado, Boulder on coupons coated with the material demonstrated consistent R33 measurements from 100-125 picometers per volt, which exceeded the potential large system supplier customer's stated requirements.

In March 2013 we entered into a product development contractor agreement with EM Photonics (EMP) of Newark, Delaware to fabricate and test waveguides and phase modulators during an initial development phase using existing EMP polymer modulator design and processes. In June 2013 we consolidated the EMP design program into our University of Colorado, Boulder (UCB) program after we fabricated structures with UCB that will be used as the basic building blocks of our Integrated Optical Device effort for the construction of both our advanced telecom modulator and data communications transceiver. 

 
In April 2013 our potential large system supplier customer informed us that their preliminary testing results on the prototype devices coated with Perkinamine Indigo™ that we delivered to them in February 2013 demonstrated several of the key performance parameters that they desired. There are still additional tests that need to be completed.  We are working with our potential customer utilizing our Perkinamine Indigo™ chromophore in a number of host polymers and will evaluate these polymers in conjunction with our chromophores for a specific performance attributes for their application.

In April 2013 Japan granted our Company Japanese Patent No. 5241234 entitled Heterocyclical Chromophore Architectures.  This patent protects the unique molecular structures that give our chromophores the thermal stability necessary to withstand CMOS processing temperatures without compromising electro-optical effects.

We ultimately intend to use our next-generation non-linear all-optical and electro-optic polymers for future applications vital to the following industries. We expect to create specific materials for each of these applications as appropriate:

·
telecommunications/data communications
·
backplane optical interconnects
·
cloud computing and data centers
·
photovoltaic cells
·
medical applications
·
satellite reconnaissance
·
navigation systems
·
radar applications
·
optical filters
·
special light modulators
·
all-optical transistors and
·
entertainment

In an effort to maximize our future revenue stream from our non-linear all-optical and electro-optic polymer products, our business model anticipates that our revenue stream will be derived from one or some combination of the following: (i) technology licensing for specific product applications; (ii) joint venture relationships with significant industry leaders; or (iii) the production and direct sale of our own electro-optic device components. Our objective is to be a leading provider of proprietary technology and know-how in the photonic device markets. In order to meet this objective, subject to successful testing of our technology and having available financial resources, we intend to:

·
Develop non-linear all-optical and electro-optic polymers and photonic devices;
·
Continue to develop proprietary intellectual property;
·
Streamline our product development process;
·
Develop a comprehensive marketing plan;
·
Maintain/develop strategic relationships with government agencies, private firms, and academic institutions; and
·
Continue to attract and retain high level science and technology personnel to our Company.

Our Proprietary Products in Development

As part of a two-pronged marketing strategy, our Company is developing several devices, which are in various stages of development that utilize our organic nonlinear optical materials.

They include:

Telecommunications Modulator

We have recently begun a second-generation design of a unique telecommunications modulator incorporating our newly developed material PerkinamineTM Indigo.  To date, we have completed phase one of the second-generation design, and the first set of optical structures that will be used as the basic building blocks of our unique telecommunications modulator. We intend to have a working bench-top prototype sometime during 2013 followed by fully packaged modulators for commercial marketing. We anticipate this modulator will be able to exceed the performance of existing legacy modulators by an order of magnitude, and will allow for improvements in the form of reduced power consumption and reduced device cost.

Spatial Light Modulator

We have a development program to develop a Spatial Light Modulator with an outside manufacturer, Boulder Nonlinear Systems (BNS) utilizing certain PerkinamineTM chromophores.  A spatial modulator is a form of optical computer that can perform various advanced tasks, such as object and facial recognition, by using advanced mathematical calculations known as Fourier Transforms. Our organic nonlinear optical materials can potentially produce update rates of more than a million times per second, which is a significant improvement in processing speed over existing Liquid Crystal Display technology that updates at only 30 to 60 times per second.

Optical Filter

We are in preliminary design and fabrication phases of development of an optical filter using our proprietary PerkinamineTM and Perkinamine NRTM materials within a SiNx photonics platform. A tunable optical filter is ideal for any application requiring tuning over a wide range of wavelengths.  Initial work has been done in collaboration with City University of New York, but limitations in their process capabilities have led us to seek alternate fabrication facilities, which are underway at this time.
All-Optical Switch

An all-optical switch is one that enables signals in optical fibers or networks to be selectively switched from one fiber or circuit to another.  Many device designs have been developed and commercialized in today’s telecom networks to effect optical switching by using mechanical or electrical control elements to accomplish the switching event.  Future networks will require all-optical switches that can be more rapidly activated with a low energy and short duration optical (light) control pulse. We are in early development of an all-optical switch in collaboration with the University of Colorado, Boulder under a sponsored research agreement.

Multi-Channel Optical Modem

We are in early feasibility study of a multi-wavelength optical modem that will enable an order of magnitude increase in Internet capacity over legacy fiber.

Additionally, we must create an infrastructure, including operational and financial systems, and related internal controls, and recruit qualified personnel. Failure to do so could adversely affect our ability to support our operations.

We have incurred substantial net losses since inception. We have satisfied our capital requirements since inception primarily through the issuance and sale of our common stock. During 2004 we raised approximately $529,000 from the issuance of convertible promissory notes, of which $30,000 was converted into common stock of the Company during 2004 and the remaining $499,000 converted in 2005. Also, during 2005, we raised an aggregate of $1,000,000 from the private sale of our common stock. During 2006 we raised approximately $425,000 from the private sale of our common stock, of which $200,000 was rescinded during 2007. During 2007 we raised approximately $2,301,524 from the private sale of our common stock. During 2008 we raised approximately $414,000 from the private sale of our common stock and $375,270 from the exercise of outstanding warrants. Through June 30, 2009, we raised approximately $855,000 from the private sale of our common stock. We also issued shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock in exchange for services rendered to our Company, including professional services.  During October 2009 we obtained proceeds of $455,000 from the exercise of outstanding warrants. During 2010 we raised $1,500,000 from the private sale of our common stock and $539,000 from the exercise of outstanding options and warrants. We also issued shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock in exchange for services rendered to our Company.

During 2011 we raised $1,000,000 from the private sale of our common stock and warrants to purchase our common stock. We also issued shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock in exchange for services rendered to our Company.

Additionally, in May 2011, we signed an agreement with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC (“Lincoln Park”) to sell up to $20 million of common stock. Under the agreement subject to certain conditions and at our sole discretion, Lincoln Park has committed to invest up to $20 million in our common stock over a 30-month period. We filed a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission covering the resale of the shares that may be issued to Lincoln Park.  Lincoln Park is obligated to make purchases as we direct in accordance with the agreement, which may be terminated by us at any time, without cost or penalty. Sales of shares are made in specified amounts and at prices that are based upon the market prices of our common stock immediately preceding the sales to Lincoln Park. The agreement expires in December 2013.

During 2011 Lincoln Park purchased 185,185 shares of common stock for proceeds of $200,000. During 2012 Lincoln Park purchased 3,539,100 shares of common stock for proceeds of $4,849,999.  Also, during 2012, we raised $447,700 from the exercise of options and warrants. For the six months ending June 30, 2013, Lincoln Park purchased 1,628,386 shares of common stock for proceeds of $1,800,001.

Conferences increased $8,445 to $9,060 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $615 for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Legal fees decreased $8,186 to $89,272 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $97,458 for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

We expect general and administrative expense to increase in future periods as we increase the level of corporate and administrative activity, including increases associated with our operation as a public company; and significantly increase expenditures related to the future production and sales of our products.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) increased $83,894 to ($204,132) for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from ($120,238) for the six months ended June 30, 2012, relating primarily to the commitment fee associated with the resale of shares to an institutional investor of new agreement for resale during the corresponding six-month period.

Net Loss

Net loss was $2,071,634 and $1,898,950 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, for an increase of $172,684, due primarily to increases in salaries and wages, laboratory lease rent, depreciation, laboratory materials and supplies, insurance expense, accounting, conferences and commitment fee to institutional investor offset by decreases in outsourced testing expenses, non-cash stock option and warrant amortization and legal expenses.

Significant Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our 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 related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates based upon historical experience and various 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 are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results may differ materially from these estimates.
 
We believe our significant accounting policies affect our more significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our financial statements.  Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 contains a discussion of these significant accounting policies. There have been no significant changes in our significant accounting policies since December 31, 2012.  See our Note 1 in our unaudited financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2013, as set forth herein.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, net cash used in operating activities was $1,374,206 and net cash used in investing activities was $126,015, which was due primarily to the Company’s research and development activities and general and administrative expenditures.  Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $1,822,525. At June 30, 2013, our cash and cash equivalents totaled $3,259,183, our assets totaled $4,282,153, our liabilities totaled $210,503, and we had stockholders' equity of $4,071,650.

Sources and Uses of Cash
 
Our future expenditures and capital requirements will depend on numerous factors, including: the progress of our research and development efforts; the rate at which we can, directly or through arrangements with original equipment manufacturers, introduce and sell products incorporating our polymer materials technology; the costs of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patent claims and other intellectual property rights; market acceptance of our products and competing technological developments; and our ability to establish cooperative development, joint venture and licensing arrangements.  We expect that we will incur approximately $3,000,000 of expenditures over the next 12 months.  Our cash requirements are expected to increase at a rate consistent with the Company’s path to revenue growth as we expand our activities and operations with the objective of commercializing our electro-optic polymer technology during 2013. We continue to develop and test our next generation electro-optic and third-order material platform to support and cultivate potential customers, strategic partners and develop photonic devices.  Management believes our initial revenue stream will be in prototype devices, application and non-recurring engineering charges, and material charges for specialty non-linear application prior to moving into full commercialization and production.

Our business does not presently generate the cash needed to finance our current and anticipated operations. Presently, our Company has a cash position of approximately $3,020,000; based upon our current cash position and expenditures of approximately $250,000 per month and no debt service, management believes we have sufficient funds currently to finance our operations through July 2014.  We plan to continue obtaining additional financing, now and in the future, until such time that we can conduct profitable revenue-generating activities.
 
Such future sources of financing may include cash from equity offerings, exercise of stock options, warrants and proceeds from debt instruments; but we cannot assure you that such equity or borrowings will be available or, if available, will be at rates or prices acceptable to us.
 
In May 2011 we signed our stock purchase agreement with Lincoln Park whereby subject to certain conditions and at our sole discretion, Lincoln Park has committed to purchase up to $20 million of our common stock over a 30-month period. We registered for resale by Lincoln Park 10,000,000 shares of our common stock in June 2011. The stock purchase agreement expires in December 2013. In June 2013 we signed our new stock purchase agreement with Lincoln Park to sell up to $20 million of common stock whereby subject to certain conditions and at our sole discretion, Lincoln Park has committed to purchase up to $20 million of our common stock over a 30-month period. We are preparing to file a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission covering the resale of the shares that may be issued to Lincoln Park pursuant to the new stock purchase agreement.  Pursuant to both agreements, Lincoln Park is obligated to make purchases as the Company directs in accordance with the purchase agreements, which may be terminated by the Company at any time, without cost or penalty. Sales of shares will be made in specified amounts and at prices that are based upon the market prices of our Company's common stock immediately preceding the sales to Lincoln Park. We expect this financing to provide our Company with sufficient funds to maintain its operations for the foreseeable future. With the additional capital, we expect to achieve a level of revenues attractive enough to fulfill our development activities and adequate enough to support our business model for the foreseeable future.  We cannot assure you that we will meet the conditions of the stock purchase agreement with Lincoln Park in order to obligate Lincoln Park to purchase our shares of common stock. In the event we fail to do so, and other adequate funds are not available to satisfy either short-term or long-term capital requirements, or if planned revenues are not generated, we may be required to substantially limit our operations. This limitation of operations may include reductions in capital expenditures and reductions in staff and discretionary costs.
 
There are no trading volume requirements or restrictions under the purchase agreement, and we will control the timing and amount of any sales of our common stock to Lincoln Park. Lincoln Park has no right to require any sales by us, but is obligated to make purchases from us as we direct in accordance with the purchase agreement. We can also accelerate the amount of common stock to be purchased under certain circumstances. There are no limitations on use of proceeds, financial or business covenants, restrictions on future funding, rights of first refusal, participation rights, penalties or liquidated damages in the purchase agreement. We may terminate the purchase agreement at any time, at our discretion, without any penalty or cost to us. Lincoln Park may not assign or transfer its rights and obligations under the purchase agreement.

We expect that our cash used in operations will increase during 2013 and beyond as a result of the following planned activities:

·
The addition of management, sales, marketing, technical and other staff to our workforce;
·
Increased spending for the expansion of our research and development efforts, including purchases of additional laboratory and production equipment;
·
Increased spending in marketing as our products are introduced into the marketplace;
·
Developing and maintaining collaborative relationships with strategic partners;
·
Developing and improving our manufacturing processes and quality controls; and
·
Increases in our general and administrative activities related to our operations as a reporting public company and related corporate compliance requirements.
