The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the Company will need additional financing to fund additional material capital expenditures and to fully implement its business plan. There are no assurances that additional financing will be available on favorable terms, or at all. If additional financing is not available, the Company will need to reduce, defer or cancel development programs, planned initiatives and overhead expenditures as a way to supplement the cash flows generated by operations. The Company has a backlog of fees under contract in addition to the Company's accounts receivable balance. The failure to adequately fund its capital requirements could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, the sale of additional equity securities to raise financing will result in additional dilution to the Company's stockholders and incurring additional indebtedness could involve the imposition of covenants that restrict its operations. Management, in the normal course of business, is trying to raise additional capital through sales of common stock as well as seeking financing from third parties, via both debt and equity, to balance the Company's cash requirements and to finance specific capital projects.
Off Balance Sheet Transactions and Related Matters
Other than operating leases discussed in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements, there are no off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, obligations (including contingent obligations), or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons that have, or may have, a material effect on financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources of the Company.
