NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2016 AND 2015

NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Summary
 
FitLife Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) is a national provider of innovative and proprietary nutritional supplements for health conscious consumers marketed under the brand names NDS Nutrition Products(TM) (“NDS”) (www.ndsnutrition.com), PMD(TM) (www.pmdsports.com), SirenLabs(TM) (www.sirenlabs.com), CoreActive(TM) (www.coreactivenutrition.com), and Metis Nutrition(TM) (www.metisnutrition.com) (together, “NDS Products”). With the consummation of the merger with iSatori, Inc. (“iSatori”) on September 30, 2015, which became effective on October 1, 2015, described below (the “Merger”), the Company added several brands to its product portfolio, including iSatori (www.isatori.com), CT Fletcher, BioGenetic Laboratories, and Energize (together, “iSatori Products”).  The NDS Products are distributed principally through franchised General Nutrition Centers, Inc. (“GNC”) stores located both domestically and internationally, and, with the addition of Metis Nutrition, through corporate GNC stores in the United States.   The iSatori Products are sold through more than 25,000 retail locations, which include specialty, mass, and online.
 
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on July 26, 2005. In October 2008, the Company acquired the assets of NDS Nutritional Products, Inc., a Nebraska corporation, and moved those assets into its wholly owned subsidiary NDS Nutrition Products, Inc., a Florida corporation (“NDS”).  The Company’s NDS Products are sold through NDS and the iSatori Products are sold through iSatori, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
 
FitLife Brands is headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska and maintains an office in Golden, Colorado, which it acquired in connection with the Merger. For more information on the Company, please go to http://www.fitlifebrands.com. The Company’s common stock currently trades under the symbol FTLF on the OTC:PINK market.
 
iSatori Merger

On September 30, 2015, the Company consummated the Merger contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated May 18, 2015 (the “Merger Agreement“), among the Company, ISFL Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub“), and iSatori, pursuant to which iSatori merged with and into Merger Sub, with iSatori surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.  The Merger was approved by iSatori shareholders at a special meeting held on September 29, 2015 and became effective on October 1, 2015 (the “Closing Date“). 
 
In connection with the closing of the Merger, each share of iSatori common stock outstanding on the Closing Date became exchangeable for 0.1732 shares of the Company's common stock (the “Exchange Ratio“). In the event any iSatori shareholder would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share of the Company's common stock, the Company agreed to pay the value of those fractional interests in cash. The Company issued a total of 2,315,644 shares of common stock and paid a total of $239 for remaining fractional interests to former iSatori shareholders in connection with the Merger.
 
Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, the Company increased the size of its Board of Directors (the “Board“) from five to seven members, appointed Stephen Adele, Chief Executive Officer of iSatori, to serve on the Board, and appointed two independent directors, Messrs. Seth Yakatan and Todd Ordal, each of whom were designated by iSatori, to the Board. Concurrently with these appointments, Dr. Fadi Aramouni resigned from the Board.
 
In addition to the foregoing, the Company secured an option to purchase, on or before December 31, 2015, approximately 600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, otherwise issuable to the two largest shareholders of iSatori, and secured a right of first refusal to purchase approximately 460,000 shares of the Company’s common stock issuable to a certain iSatori shareholder in the connection with the Merger. After careful consideration of many factors, including available cash resources, the Company’s Board of Directors elected not to exercise the purchase option prior to its expiration. The right of first refusal, however, remains outstanding.

 
On September 11, 2015, the Company loaned iSatori $750,000 pursuant to a Demand Promissory Note ("Note"), due and payable on demand after October 15, 2015 in the event the Merger was not consummated on or before such date. The proceeds from the Note were to be used by iSatori for the payment, in the ordinary course of business, of payroll and accounts payable of iSatori pending consummation of the Merger. The Note was deemed satisfied in full in connection with the Closing Date of the Merger and was included as an element of the total purchase price, which also included the assumption of outstanding debt of approximately $1.1 million and the issuance of approximately 2.3 million shares of Company common stock. In connection with the Merger, the Company also converted all issued and outstanding options and warrants of iSatori into options and warrants of FitLife in an amount equal to the number of iSatori options and warrants issued and outstanding multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, at an exercise equal to the original exercise price divided by the Exchange Ratio. The treasury stock net equivalent of all issued and outstanding options and warrants were factored into the calculation of the final Exchange Ratio, the vast majority of which were and remain significantly out of the money.
 
At closing, in connection with adjustment provisions outlined in the Merger Agreement, iSatori established certain reserves and write-offs totaling approximately $1.8 million, which write-offs, together with the issuance of the Note and other variances of certain working capital accounts, resulted in a reduction of the Exchange Ratio under the terms of the Merger Agreement from 0.3000 to 0.1732 shares of common stock of the Company for each share of iSatori common stock issued and outstanding.

NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Interim Financial Statements
 
The accompanying interim condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation are included. Operating results for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016. While management of the Company believes the disclosures presented herein are adequate and not misleading, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited condensed consolidated financial statements and the footnotes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
  
NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  Significant accounting policies are as follows: 
 
Principle of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and NDS Nutrition Products, Inc.  Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated condensed financial statements.
 
Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and (iii) the reported amount of net sales and expenses recognized during the periods presented. Adjustments made with respect to the use of estimates often relate to improved information not previously available. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of financial statements; accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates.
  
These estimates and assumptions also affect the reported amounts of revenues, costs and expenses during the reporting period.  Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on a regular basis.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 
Revenue Recognition

Revenue is derived from product sales. The Company recognizes revenue from product sales in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605 “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” which assesses revenue upon: (i) the time customers are invoiced at shipping point provided title and risk of loss has passed to the customer, (ii) evidence of an arrangement exists, (iii) fees are contractually fixed or determinable, (iv) collection is reasonably assured through historical collection results and regular credit evaluations, and (v) there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance.
  
The Company offers discounts on sales to GNC franchises on many of its products.  Discounts are updated monthly and made available to all franchisees.  Revenue is recorded net of all discounts taken at the time of sale for all direct sales.  Indirect sales involve sales through GNC’s centralized distribution platform.  Fulfillment to franchisees from GNC’s distribution centers often spans several months and accounting periods after the initial indirect sale.  Given that the discount programs change monthly, it is impossible to predict with any certainty what discounts will be taken on which products and at what time.  As a result, the Company has historically booked gross revenue through the indirect channel upon shipment to GNC.  Discounts taken by franchisees upon fulfillment from GNC’s distribution center are billed back to the Company as a credit to a future invoice.  The Company accounted for these deductions (“Vendor Funded Discounts”) as a selling and marketing expense in the period that the deduction was taken by GNC.  Management believes this approach was the best way to match the expense to the timing of actual product fulfillment at the store level when the discounts are actually taken.  In an effort to ensure consistent accounting policies across all operating divisions after the acquisition of iSatori, the Company elected to modify its accounting policy for Vendor Funded Discounts.  Going forward, for all indirect distribution, the Company will estimate anticipated discounts at the time product is shipped to GNC’s distribution center(s) and recognize that estimate as a deduction from gross revenue at the time of shipment to GNC.  Actual discounts will be compared to the estimate each accounting period and adjusted as necessary. Total revenue and selling and marketing expense will be reduced by the amount of the estimate, and the new policy will have no effect on operating or net income.  Results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014, and the nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were reported using the previous gross revenue approach, while results from operations for the year ended December 31, 2015 and quarter ended June 30, 2016 were reported using the new accounting policy for Vendor Funded Discounts.
 
Accounts Receivable

All of the Company’s accounts receivable balance is related to trade receivables. Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company will maintain allowances for doubtful accounts, estimating losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments for products. Accounts with known financial issues are first reviewed and specific estimates are recorded. The remaining accounts receivable balances are then grouped in categories by the amount of days the balance is past due, and the estimated loss is calculated as a percentage of the total category based upon past history. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when it is probable the receivable will not be recovered. The Company recorded an expense of $2,991 related to bad debt and doubtful accounts during the quarter ended June 30, 2016.
 
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
 
The determination of collectability of the Company’s accounts receivable requires management to make frequent judgments and estimates in order to determine the appropriate amount of allowance needed for doubtful accounts. The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts is estimated to cover the risk of loss related to accounts receivable. This allowance is maintained at a level we consider appropriate based on factors that affect collectability. These factors include historical trends of write-offs, recoveries and credit losses, the careful monitoring of customer credit quality, and projected economic and market conditions. Different assumptions or changes in economic circumstances could result in changes to the allowance. 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At June 30, 2016, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in the bank.
  
Inventory

The Company’s inventory is carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. The Company evaluates the need to record adjustments for inventory on a regular basis. Company policy is to evaluate all inventories including raw material and finished goods for all of its product offerings across all of the Company’s operating subsidiaries. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the value of the Company’s inventory was $3,649,240 and $4,790,301, respectively.
   
 
Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method. When items are retired or otherwise disposed of, income is charged or credited for the difference between net book value and proceeds realized.  Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and replacements and betterments are capitalized.
 
The range of estimated useful lives used to calculate depreciation for principal items of property and equipment are as follows:

Asset Category
Depreciation/Amortization Period
Furniture and fixtures
3 Years
Office equipment
3 Years
Leasehold improvements
5 Years
 
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“FASB”) ASC Topic 350 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. In accordance with ASC Topic 350, goodwill, which represents the excess of the purchase price and related costs over the value assigned to net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of businesses acquired and accounted for under the purchase method, acquired in business combinations is assigned to reporting units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination as of the acquisition date. Under this standard, goodwill and intangibles with indefinite useful lives are no longer amortized. The Company assesses goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually during the fourth quarter, or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred in accordance with ASC Topic 350. If the carrying value of a reporting unit's goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, the Company records an impairment loss equal to the difference. ASC Topic 350 also requires that the fair value of indefinite-lived purchased intangible assets be estimated and compared to the carrying value. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the estimated fair value of the indefinite-lived purchased intangible assets is less than the carrying value.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with ASC Topic 3605, “Long-Lived Assets,” such as property, plants, equipment, and purchased intangibles are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Goodwill and other intangible assets are tested for impairment. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount in which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. There were no events or changes in circumstances that necessitated an impairment of long-lived assets.
 
Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are provided based on the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48 – “Accounting For Uncertainty In Income Taxes”–an interpretation of ASC Topic 740 (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not, that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount, which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating the Company's tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments. At June 30, 2016, the Company did not record any liabilities for uncertain tax positions.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its operating cash balances at a large, commercial bank with offices across the country. The Federal Depository Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insures accounts up to $250,000.
  
 
Earnings Per Share
 
Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options, warrants, and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company. In the event of a loss, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share, because of the effect of the additional securities, a net loss would be anti-dilutive.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties other than in a forced sale or liquidation.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, income tax payable and related party payable, if any, approximate fair value.

NOTE 6 - INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 the Company wrote off the remaining balance of its investment in YogaEarth Group LLC (“YogaEarth”) and recorded a $50,000 expense in connection with the write off. Contemporaneously with the write off, the Company, YogaEarth and other third parties (collectively, the “Parties”) entered into a settlement agreement (the “Settlement”) related to prior investment activity and intellectual property development initiatives undertaken by the Parties. Under the terms of the Settlement, YogaEarth agreed to sell its 50% ownership position in the kaniwa protein extraction intellectual property (the “Kaniwa IP”) to the other Parties for the termination of certain equity rights and claims held by such parties in and against YogaEarth. Under the terms of the Settlement, the Company issued shares of its common stock with a fair market value of $84,500 to the third parties in exchange for their 37.5% of the Kaniwa IP, resulting in the Company owning 100% of the Kaniwa IP. The Company booked the $220,000 implied value of the Kainwa IP to intangible assets, net and recorded a gain on the transaction of $137,500. On December 22, 2014, the USPTO notified the Company that its claims under the Kaniwa IP were not allowed. The Company filed a response with the USPTO on March 23, 2015. In July 2015, the Company received a Notice of Allowance from the USPTO regarding its claims for the Kaniwa IP. On April 19, the Company received confirmation from the USPTO that the patent related to the Kaniwa IP was issued.

NOTE 10 - NET INCOME / (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share also includes the weighted average number of outstanding warrants and options in the denominator. In the event of a loss, the diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share. The weighted average number of diluted shares of common stock outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2016 included 10,408,264 shares of common stock, 110,620 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding common stock purchase warrants, and 1,001,657 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options to purchase common stock. The following table represents the computation of basic and diluted income and (losses) per share for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

Warrants

The Company values all warrants using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  Critical assumptions for the Black-Scholes option-pricing model include the market value of the stock price at the time of issuance, the risk-free interest rate corresponding to the term of the warrant, the volatility of the Company’s stock price, dividend yield on the common stock, as well as the exercise price and term of the warrant.  The Black Scholes option-pricing model was the best determinable value of the warrants that the Company “knew up front” when issuing the warrants in accordance with Topic 505. Other than as expressly noted below, the warrants are not subject to any form of vesting schedule and, therefore, are exercisable by the holders anytime at their discretion during the life of the warrant.  No discounts were applied to the valuation determined by the Black-Scholes option-pricing model; provided, however, that in determining volatility the Company utilized the lesser of the 90-day volatility as reported by Bloomberg or other such nationally recognized provider of financial markets data and 40.0%.  
  
As of June 30, 2016, 110,620 warrants to purchase common stock of the Company were issued and outstanding, additional information about which is included in the following table:

Private Placements, Other Issuances and Cancellations

The Company periodically issues shares of its common stock, as well as options and warrants to purchase shares of common stock to investors in connection with private placement transactions, and to advisors, consultants and employees for the fair value of services rendered. Absent an arm’s length transaction with an independent third-party, the value of any such issued shares is based on the trading value of the stock at the date on which such transactions or agreements are consummated. The Company expenses the fair value of all such issuances in the period incurred, with the exception of options that are subject to vesting which are expensed ratably on a monthly basis over the life of the vesting period. During the quarter ended June 30, 2016, the Company issued (i) 5,357 shares of common stock subscribed for services rendered by directors that elected to take their board fees in shares of common stock in lieu of cash payment and recorded an expense of $7,500 for the fair value of services rendered, and (ii) 291,000 common stock purchase options in the aggregate subject to three year vesting to certain key employees consistent with past practice for which in recorded a net expense of $12,372.

The Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $21,000,000 for federal purposes available to offset future taxable income through 2035 and 2,298,000 for State of Colorado purposes which expire in various years through 2035, The Company has provided a valuation reserve against the full amount of the net operating loss benefit, because in the opinion of management the benefits from net operating losses carried forward may be impaired or limited on certain circumstances. Events which may cause limitations in the amount of net operating losses that the Company may utilize in any one year include, but are not limited to, limitations imposed under  Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, from change of more than 50% over a three-year period. The impact of any limitations that may be imposed for future issuances of equity securities, including issuances with respect to acquisitions have not been determined.
  
ASC 740 requires the consideration of a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets. Significant management judgment is required in determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. In evaluating the ability to recover deferred tax assets, the Company considered available positive and negative evidence, giving greater weight to its recent cumulative losses and its ability to carry-back losses against prior taxable income and lesser weight to its projected financial results due to the challenges of forecasting future periods. The Company also considered, commensurate with its objective verifiability, the forecast of future taxable income including the reversal of temporary differences. At that time the Company continued to have sufficient positive evidence, including recent cumulative profits, a reduction in operating expenses, the ability to carry-back losses against prior taxable income and an expectation of improving operating results, showing a valuation allowance was not required. At the end of the year ended of quarter ended June 30, 2016 and year ended December 31, 2015, expectations of taxable income necessitated a reduction in the valuation allowance and a restoration of $689,000 of deferred tax assets related to net operating losses expected to be utilized in the next 12 months.  At June 30, 2016, the Company continues to maintain the deferred tax asset of $689,000.

Management will elect additional changes to revenue recognition to comply with the most conservative SEC recognition on a forward going accrual basis as the model is replicated with other similar markets. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth therein.
  
Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors and risks that could affect our results and achievements and cause them to materially differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements include those identified in the section titled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, as well as other factors that we are currently unable to identify or quantify, but that may exist in the future.

These increases in total revenue for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016 were driven by continued improvement in sales of product through GNC, and the addition of revenue attributable to iSatori Products, which contributed $2,669,595 and $5,018,405 in total revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. Excluding the impact of iSatori, revenue for the three month and six month period ended June 30, 2016 increased $966,163 and $2,387,159, respectively.

Revenue for the three month period ended March 31, 2016 included $270,724 of Vendor Funded Discounts (defined in Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein) from iSatori that were reclassed from a selling and marketing expense to a contra-revenue account during the quarter ended June 30, 2016. Management did not believe this reclassification was material and, therefore, did not compromise the reliability of our first quarter financial statements, as reported in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 16, 2016, and all necessary adjustments have been made for the six month period ended June 30, 2016. The following table shows the impact on several key income statement line items, on both an as reported and as adjusted basis.

The Company continually reformulates and introduces new products, as well as seeks to increase both the number of stores and number of approved products that can be sold within the GNC franchise system that comprise its domestic and international distribution footprint and, while no assurances can be given, anticipates that such efforts together with anticipated sales growth attributable to iSatori Products will continue to drive future revenue growth.  While currently not a material component of revenue, management anticipates that continued international expansion within the GNC franchise system, as well as the introduction of new NDS Products and iSatori Products will also contribute to future growth.

 Cost of Goods Sold.  Cost of goods sold for the three months ended June 30, 2016 increased to $4,851,166 as compared to $3,090,595 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, and increased to $9,115,857 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to $5,357,305 for the six months ended June 30, 2015.  The increase during the three and six month periods was primarily attributable to increased sales volumes including sales of iSatori Products.
 
General and Administrative Expense.   General and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2016 increased to $1,356,464 as compared to $682,891 for the three months ended June 30, 2015.  General and administrative expense for the six months ended June 30, 2016 increased to $2,745,671 as compared to $1,615,137 for the six months ended June 30, 2015.  The increase in general and adminstrative expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 is principally attributable to integration of iSatori operations following completion of the Merger.
  
Selling and Marketing Expense.  Selling and marketing expense for the three months ended June 30, 2016 increased to $1,111,129 as compared to $910,953 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, and increased to $2,026,687 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to $1,514,757 for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The change in selling and marketing expense for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2016 is principally attributable to the addition of iSatori. As net sales increase, selling and marketing expense is anticipated to simultaneously increase, although management anticipates that selling and marketing expense will increase at a slower rate.

 
Depreciation and Amortization.  Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended June 30, 2016 increased to $125,995 as compared to $55,388 for the three months ended June 30, 2015.  Depreciation and amortization for the six months ended June 30, 2016 increased to $250,751 as compared to $110,665 for the six months ended June 30, 2015.  
 
Net Income/(Loss).  We generated a profit of $1,079,036 and $1,893,190 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, as compared to a profit of $243,539 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and a profit of $201,276 for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The period over period increases were principally attributable to increased sales volume of NDS Products, sales of iSatori Products and continued strong gross margins.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
The Company has historically financed its operations primarily through equity and debt financings, and more recently, cash flow from operations. The Company has also provided for its cash needs by issuing common stock, options and warrants for certain operating costs, including consulting and professional fees. The Company did not engage in any financing activities during the quarter ended June 30, 2016. The anticipated cash derived from operations and existing cash resources are expected to provide for the Company’s liquidity for the next 12 months.  
  
Cash Provided by/(Used in) Operations. Our cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $176,610, as compared to cash provided by operating activities of $693,302 for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease is attributable to increased accounts receivables and inventories balances due, in part, to the addition of iSatori operations and sales, as well as variations in certain working capital accounts consistent with normal business practices and outcomes. Net working capital increased to $5,059,096 as of the quarter ended June 30, 2016 compared to $7,142,458 as of June 30, 2015.

Cash Provided by/(Used in) Investing Activities.  Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $(19,592) as compared to $(258,196) used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015.  The primary difference was related to a temporary reduction in activity related to the Company’s stock buyback program.

Cash Provided by/(Used in) Financing Activities.   Our cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $250,548, as compared to $(125,247) cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2015. We drew down $520,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2016 from our existing line of credit with U.S. Bank.  We expect to pay back all amounts borrowed under this line of credit, as well as any outstanding principal under the Company’s existing term loan with U.S. Bank as soon as praticable.

ITE3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our business is currently conducted principally in the United States. As a result, our financial results are not affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or economic conditions in foreign markets. We do not engage in hedging transactions to reduce our exposure to changes in currency exchange rates, although as the geographical scope of our business broadens, we may do so in the future.
 
Our exposure to risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our investments in short-term financial instruments. Investments in both fixed rate and floating rate interest earning instruments carry some interest rate risk. The fair value of fixed rate securities may fall due to a rise in interest rates, while floating rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates fall. Partly as a result of this, our future interest income may fall short of expectations due to changes in interest rates or we may suffer losses in principal if we are forced to sell securities that have fallen in estimated fair value due to changes in interest rates. However, as substantially all of our cash equivalents consist of bank deposits and short-term money market instruments, we do not expect any material change with respect to our net income as a result of an interest rate change.

We do not hold any derivative instruments and do not engage in any hedging activities.
  
 
ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
(a)             Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our disclosure controls and procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance that the controls and procedures would meet their objectives. As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
  
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, management has conducted an assessment, including testing, using the criteria in Internal Control — Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Our system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Management has used the framework set forth in the report entitled Internal Control-Integrated Framework published by the COSO to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on this assessment, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2016. This Quarterly Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Quarterly Report. There has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

(b)             Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that could materially affect, or are reasonably likely to affect, our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2016. There have not been any significant changes in the Company's critical accounting policies identified since the Company filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K as of December 31, 2015.


PART II
 
OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
On September 26, 2014, Environmental Research Center, Inc., a California non-profit corporation (“ERC”) issued a 60-day notice (“Notice”) of intent to file suit against ourselves and NDS Nutrition Products, Inc. (“NDS”) for alleged labeling violations of California Health & Safety Code Sec. 25249.5 et seq., commonly referred to as “Proposition 65”.  After months of negotiations, ERC sent the Company its demand for $300,000 in fines and fees in September of 2015.  ERC filed suit on October 22, 2015, but did not serve the Company with requisite notice until December 2015. The parties reached a settlement for $90,000 and executed a Consent Judgment on December 31, 2015.  The hearing to approve the Consent Judgment was heard before the Superior Court of California, County of Alameda, on April 12, 2016.  The settlement was approved, and the Company paid $90,000 in settlement on April 18, 2016.
 
On December 31, 2014, various plaintiffs, individually and on behalf of a purported nationwide and sub-class of purchasers, filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, captioned Ryan et al. v. Gencor Nutrients, Inc. et al., Case No.: 4:14-CV-05682.  The lawsuit includes claims made against the manufacturer and various producers and sellers of products containing a nutritional supplement known as Testofen, which is manufactured and sold by Gencor Nutrients, Inc. (“Gencor”).  Specifically, the Ryan plaintiffs allege that various defendants have manufactured, marketed and/or sold Testofen, or nutritional supplements containing Testofen, and in doing so represented to the public that Testofen had been clinically proven to increase free testosterone levels.  According to the plaintiffs, those claims are false and/or not statistically proven.  Plaintiffs seek relief under violations of the Racketeering Influenced Corrupt Organizations Act, breach of express and implied warranties, and violations of unfair trade practices in violation of California, Pennsylvania, and Arizona law.  NDS utilizes Testofen in a limited number of nutritional supplements it manufactures and sells pursuant to a license agreement with Gencor.
 
On February 19, 2015 this matter was transferred to the Central District of California to the Honorable Manuel Real.  Judge Real had previously issued an order dismissing a previously filed but similar lawsuit that had been filed by the same lawyer who represents the plaintiffs in the Ryan matter.  That related lawsuit is on appeal to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.  This matter has been stayed pending the resolution of that appeal.
 
On October 27, 2015, the Company filed a declaratory judgment in the U.S. District Court for the District of Nebraska, captioned Fitlife Brands, Inc. v. Met-Rx Substrate Technology, Inc., Case No. 8:15-cv-00388, seeking a declaration that its METIS NUTRITION trademark was not likely to cause confusion with various MET-RX trademarks owned by Met-Rx Substrate Technology, Inc. (“Met-Rx”).  This dispute originally began as an action in front of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) when the Company first filed for the METIS NUTRITION trademark, and Met-Rx filed a Notice of Opposition to the Company’s application, arguing that the METIS NUTRITION mark was likely to cause confusion with various MET-RX trademarks owned by Met-Rx.  At the Company’s request, the USPTO stayed the matter, and the Company initiated the current proceeding.  On April 18, 2016, Met-Rx answered the Company’s Complaint, and also brought a Counterclaim seeking injunctive relief and damages due to alleged trademark infringement, false designation of origin, trademark dilution, common law unfair competition and common law passing off.  The Company disputes the allegations contained in the Counterclaim and does not believe there is any likelihood of confusion between the two marks.  Discovery should begin in the near future.

We are currently not involved in any litigation except noted above that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. Other than described above, there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting the Company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of the Company’s or our subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
 
There are no risk factors identified by the Company in addition to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.


ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

During the quarter ended June 30, 2016, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock. The Company’s Repurchase Program authorizes the Company to purchase up to $600,000 of our common stock per annum, subject to maximum repurchases of $50,000 per month. Additional purchases under the Repurchase Program may be made from time to time at the discretion of management as market conditions warrant and subject to certain regulatory restrictions and other considerations.

As of August 12, 2016, the Company had repurchased an aggregate total of 206,187 shares of our common stock under the Repurchase Program, at an average purchase price of $1.93 per share.
