INTERNATIONAL ISOTOPES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2024

 

 

(1)       The Company and Basis of Presentation

 

International Isotopes Inc. (INIS) was incorporated in Texas in November 1995. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and include all operations and balances of INIS and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including RadQual, LLC (RadQual) and TI Services, LLC (TI Services). RadQual is a global supplier of molecular imaging quality control and calibration devices, and is based at INIS headquarters in Idaho Falls, Idaho. TI Services is headquartered in Boardman, Ohio and distributes products for nuclear medicine, nuclear cardiology, and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging. INIS, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries are collectively referred to herein as the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us.”

 

Nature of Operations – The Company manufactures a full range of nuclear medicine calibration and reference standards, generic sodium iodide I-131 drug product, cobalt teletherapy sources, and a varied selection of radiochemicals for medical research, and clinical applications. For 2024, the Company’s business consists of five business segments: Theranostics Products, Cobalt Products, Nuclear Medicine Standards, Medical Device Products, and Fluorine Products. The Company’s headquarters and all manufacturing operations are located in Idaho Falls, Idaho.

 

With the exception of certain unique products, the Company’s normal operating cycle is considered to be one year. Due to the time required to produce some cobalt products, the Company’s operating cycle for those products is considered to be two to three years. Accordingly, preliminary payments received on cobalt contracts, where shipment will not take place for greater than one year, have been recorded as unearned revenue and, depending upon estimated ship dates, classified under either current or long-term liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. These unearned revenues are being recognized as revenue in the periods during which the cobalt shipments take place. All assets expected to be realized in cash or sold during the normal operating cycle of business are classified as current assets.

 

Principles of Consolidation – The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with GAAP and include all operations and balances of INIS and its wholly-owned subsidiaries including RadQual and TI Services. See Note 4 “Investment and Business Consolidation” for additional information. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Interim Financial Information – The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and reclassifications considered necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading and for a fair and comparable presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024 or any future periods. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on March 29, 2024.

Business Condition – Since inception, the Company has incurred substantial losses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company reported a net loss of $237,245 and net cash provided by operating activities of $568,215. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company reported net loss of $759,961 and net cash provided by operating activities of $697,645.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company continued its focus on its strongest long-standing core business segments which consist of its Theranostics Products (previously called Radiochemical Products), Cobalt Products, and Nuclear Medicine Standards, and in particular, the pursuit of new business opportunities within those segments. Additionally, the Company has begun to focus on the start-up of its Medical Device segment which includes assets purchased from AMICI in 2023 and investing into an EasyFill Automated Iodine Capsule System.

 

The Company holds a Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) construction and operating license for the depleted uranium facility in, as well as the property agreement with, Lea County, New Mexico, where the plant is intended to be constructed. The NRC license for the de-conversion facility is a forty (40) year operating license and is the first commercial license of this type issued in the United States. On February 8, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell all of our assets related to the Fluorine Products segment and the Planned Uranium De-Conversion Facility, including the Lea County land, ("DUF6 Asset Sale"). The Company expects to close the agreement within 12 to 24 months of signing. Closing is contingent on various conditions being met, including approvals and agreements by the NRC and other third parties.

 

The Company expects that cash from operations, equity or debt financing, and its current cash balance will be sufficient to fund operations for the next twelve months. Future liquidity and capital funding requirements will depend on numerous factors, including commercial relationships, technological developments, market factors, available credit, and management of redeemable convertible preferred stock. There is no assurance that additional capital and financing will be available on acceptable terms to the Company or at all.

(7)       Commitments and Contingencies

 

Dependence on Third Parties

 

The production of Cobalt-60 is dependent upon the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), and its prime operating contractor, which controls the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) and laboratory operations at the ATR located outside of Idaho Falls, Idaho. In October 2014, the Company signed a ten-year contract with the DOE for the irradiation of cobalt targets for the production of cobalt-60. The Company is able to purchase cobalt targets for a fixed price per target with an annual 5% escalation in price. The contract term is October 1, 2014 through September 30, 2024. The Company and DOE have determined that supply will continue for the next 18-24 months under the 2014 agreement. The Company and DOE are currently working on an extension to this contract for future irradiation and supply of Cobalt. The DOE may end the contract if it determines termination is necessary for the national defense, security or environmental safety of the United States.

 

Sales of our most predominant Theranostics Products are dependent upon a few key suppliers. An interruption in production by any of these individual suppliers could have an immediate negative impact upon Theranostics Products sales until material could be purchased from alternate suppliers including obtaining regulatory approval to use material from alternative suppliers if necessary. The Company has identified additional suppliers in 2024, with anticipated regulatory approvals for those suppliers in 2025 and continue to search for additional means to produce and procure certain critical isotopes.

 

The Nuclear Medicine Reference and Calibration Standard products sold by the Company are dependent upon certain radioisotopes that are supplied to the Company through agreements with several suppliers. A loss of any of these suppliers could adversely affect operating results by causing a delay in production or a possible loss of sales. In nine months ended September 30, 2024, there was a global shortage of Cobalt-57 isotopes, a key isotope for this business segment that resulted in significant lost sales. The Company has added additional suppliers in 2024 and continue to search for additional means to produce and procure certain critical isotopes, including through our Chinese Joint Venture. In the third quarter of 2024 our main supply of Cobalt-57 was restored. We have seen a sharp decrease in cancellations of orders, and we have been able to process through our backlogged orders. We expect increased revenue due to this backlog catch-up throughout the remainder of 2024 and potentially into the first quarter of 2025 as our global isotope supply chain has normalized.

 

 

 

Contingencies

 

Because all the Company’s business segments involve the handling or use of radioactive material, the Company is required to have an operating license from the NRC and specially trained staff to handle these materials. The Company has amended this operating license numerous times to increase the amount of material permitted within the Company’s facility. Although this license does not currently restrict the volume of business operations performed or projected to be performed in the upcoming year, additional processing capabilities and license amendments could be implemented that would permit the processing of other reactor-produced radioisotopes by the Company. The financial assurance required by the NRC to support this license has been provided for with a surety bond held with North American Specialty Insurance Company which is supported by a restricted money market account held with Merrill Lynch. In the nine months ended September 30, 2024 the Company funded an additional $484,000 to this restricted money market account. At September 30, 2024, the balance of this account was $1,414,777.

 

On February 8, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell all of our assets related to the Fluorine Products segment and the Planned Uranium De-Conversion Facility, including the Lea County land, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $12.5 million, subject to conditions. The Company expects to close the agreement within 12 to 24 months of signing. Closing is contingent on various conditions being met, including approvals and agreements by the NRC and other third parties. The Company has not recorded the value of this property as an asset and will not do so until such time that material changes to or sufficient progress on the project has been made to meet the Company’s obligations under the agreements for permanent transfer of the title.

The Company’s revenue consists primarily of distribution of theranostics including sodium iodide I-131 drug product, calibration and reference standards manufactured for use in the nuclear medicine industry, and cobalt source manufacturing. With the exception of certain unique products, the Company’s normal operating cycle is considered to be one year. Due to the time required to produce some cobalt products, the Company’s operating cycle for those products is considered to be two to three years. Accordingly, preliminary payments received on cobalt contracts where shipment has not taken place have been recorded as unearned revenue on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets and classified under current or long-term liabilities, depending upon estimated ship dates. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company reported current unearned revenue of $656,656. For the period ended December 31, 2023, the Company reported current unearned revenue of $932,682. These unearned revenues will be recognized as revenue in the periods during which the cobalt shipments take place.

 

Contract Balances

 

The Company records a receivable when it has an unconditional right to receive consideration after the performance obligations are satisfied.  As of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, accounts receivable totaled $1,471,917 and $1,469,298, respectively.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company did not incur material impairment losses with respect to its receivables.

 

 

(9)      Leases

 

The Company leases office and warehouse space under operating leases. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments under the lease. Operating lease, right-of-use assets, and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the reasonably certain lease term. The implicit rates with the Company’s operating leases are generally not determinable and the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date to determine the present value of its lease payments. The determination of the Company’s incremental borrowing rate requires judgement. The company determines its incremental borrowing rate for each lease using its then-current borrowing rate. Certain of the Company’s leases include options to extend or terminate the lease. The Company establishes the number of renewal options periods used in determining the operating lease term based upon its assessment at the inception of the operating lease. The option to renew the lease may be automatic, at the option of the Company, or mutually agreed to between the landlord and the Company. Once the facility lease term has begun, the present value of the aggregate future minimum lease payments is recorded as a right-of-use asset. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

 

International Isotopes Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiaries (including RadQual, LLC, TI Services, LLC, RadVent, LLC, and Radnostix, LLC) (collectively, the "Company", "we", "our", or "us") manufacture a full range of nuclear medicine calibration and reference standards, manufacture a range of cobalt products, and distribute sodium iodide I-131 as a generic drug. We own 100% interest of RadQual, LLC (RadQual), a global supplier of molecular imaging quality control and calibration devices. As TI Services, LLC is a 50/50 joint venture between the Company and RadQual, TI Services, LLC is also a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

Our business consists of the following five business segments:

 

Theranostics Products. Our Theranostics Products segment (formerly called Radiochemical Products) includes production and distribution of our FDA approved generic sodium iodide I-131 drug product for the treatment of hyperthyroidism and carcinoma of the thyroid. This segment also includes distribution of certain other theranostic APIs, radiochemical products, and contract manufacturing of radiopharmaceutical products for our customers. Additionally, this segment includes the Theranostics Products segment of our Radnostix China Joint Venture.

 

Cobalt Products. Our Cobalt Products segment includes the production of bulk cobalt (cobalt-60), fabrication of cobalt capsules for radiation therapy and various industrial applications, and recycling of expended cobalt sources. We are the only company in the U.S. that can provide all these unique services. There has been a significant increase in regulation by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) in recent years that has created a significant barrier to new entrants into this market. The Company has a contract in place with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for the production of high specific activity cobalt in the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) in Idaho. This agreement will be in effect until October 2024.

 

Nuclear Medicine Standards. Our Nuclear Medicine Standards segment consists of the manufacture of sources and standards, including those associated with Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging. These sources are used for indication of patient positioning for SPECT imaging, SPECT camera operational testing, and calibration of dose measurement equipment. Revenue from nuclear medicine products includes consolidated sales from TI Services, LLC (TI Services), a 50/50 joint venture that we formed with RadQual in December 2010 to distribute our products, as well as sales from RadQual. Our nuclear medicine standards products include a host of specially designed items used in the nuclear medicine industry. In addition to the manufacture of these products, we have developed a complete line of specialty packaging for the safe transport and handling of these products as well as manufacturing of industrial calibration & reference sources made by the Company, distribution of 3rd Party industrial calibration & reference sources, and the sale of bulk radioisotopes.

 

On August 6, 2024, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Phantech LLC to form PhanQual. PhanQual will leverage INIS’s and Phantech’s technologies, facilities, experience, and global network to design, manufacture, and distribute sealed sources, including adapting Phantech's patented and cutting-edge fillable calibration source technology, into sealed source calibration devices to better serve the R&D and theranostics community. Additionally, RadQual will globally distribute Phantech’s entire portfolio of fillable sources through RadQual’s global network of distributors. PhanQual’s revenues and operations will operate through RadQual and will be included in our Nuclear Medicine Standards segment. The Company has already begun commercial sales of PhanQual products.

Medical Devices. A new reportable business segment starting in 2024. While we have not yet commercialized any medical devices, we have invested in this segment throughout 2023 and 2024 and anticipate additional investments for the remainder of 2024 with commercialization of products starting later in 2024. In June 2023, we acquired several medical devices with related assets and intellectual property rights from AMICI, Inc. We have been working on start-up of manufacturing of the Swirler® and Tru-Fit™ Mouthpiece assets under the branding of RadVent. Additionally, we also have investments in a joint venture arrangement for the startup of our EasyFill Automated Iodine Capsule System. We also plan to commercialize 3rd party medical devices and accessories related to the radiopharmaceutical and theranostics spaces and provide engineering, installation, and preventative maintenance and services related to those medical devices.

 

Fluorine Products. We established the Fluorine Products segment in 2004 in conjunction with the development and operation of the proposed depleted uranium de-conversion facility in Lea County, New Mexico. Near the end of 2013, due to changes in the nuclear industry, we placed further engineering work for this project on hold. On February 8, 2024, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell all of our assets related to the Fluorine Products segment and the Planned Uranium De-Conversion Facility, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $12.5 million, subject to conditions. We expect to close the agreement within 12 to 24 months of signing. Closing is contingent on various conditions being met, including approvals and agreements by the NRC and other third parties.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Three Months Ended September 30, 2024, Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2023

 

Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $3,924,444 as compared to $2,918,556 for the same period in 2023, an overall increase of $1,005,888, or approximately 34%. This increase in revenue was the result of increased revenues in our Theranostics Products and Cobalt Products partially offset by decreased revenue in our Nuclear Medicine Standards segment due to a global shortage of Cobalt-57 isotope during the period, as discussed in more detail below.

Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $81,884, compared to $82,346 for the same period in 2023. This is a decrease of $462, or approximately 1%. Interest expense includes dividends accrued on our Series C Preferred Stock. As discussed below, we issued Series C Preferred Stock in February 2017 and May 2017. For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we accrued dividends payable of $60,945 in each period, which have been recorded as interest expense. See Note 7 “Debt” to our unaudited consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report for additional information about our indebtedness and the associated interest expense.

 

On September 25, 2024, with the approval of a majority of holders of the Series C Preferred Stock, the mandatory redemption date of the Series C Preferred was extended for an additional two years to February 28, 2027.

 

We had net income of $150,251 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to net loss of $348,605 for the same period in 2023. This increase in net income of $498,856 that is largely the result of increased revenue in our Theranostics Products and Cobalt Products segments and increased gross profit percentages partially offset by the decrease in revenue in our Nuclear Medicine Standards Products segment coupled with continued investment in the start-up of our Medical Device Products segment for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023.

 

Theranostics Products. Revenue from the sale of theranostics products for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $2,183,197, compared to $1,534,898 for the same period in 2023. This is an increase of $648,299, or approximately 42% during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase is the result of continued increased sales of our generic sodium iodide I-131 drug product. We expect continued sales growth for our Theranostics products going forward, primarily from the sale of our generic sodium iodide I-131 drug product and new sales of theranostic API product

 

Gross profit of theranostics products for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $1,606,064, compared to $998,061 for the same period in 2023, and gross profit percentages were approximately 74% and 65% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. This increased gross profit percentage was the result of better pricing for our raw material isotope and more efficient utilization of this raw material. Cost of sales for theranostics products increased to $577,133 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $536,837 for the same period in 2023. This is an increase of $40,296, or approximately 8%, and was the result of the increase in revenue. Operating expense for this segment increased to $316,798 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $310,648 for the same period in 2023. This in an increase in operating expense of $6,150, or approximately 2%. This segment reported net income of $1,289,266 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to net income of $687,413 for the same period in 2023. The increase in net income of $601,853 is the result of increases in revenue and increased gross profit percentage.

Cobalt Products. Revenue from the sale of cobalt products for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $814,845, compared to $328,978 for the same period in 2023. This represents an increase of $485,867, or approximately 148%. The increase was primarily due to the timing of cobalt sealed source manufacturing sales. Large value sales of high activity cobalt sources occur at various times throughout the year. Frequently the timing of these sales can have a significant impact on period comparisons.

 

 

Cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2024, was $462,835, as compared to $118,921, for the same period in 2023. Gross profit for cobalt products for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $352,010 compared to $210,057 for the same period in 2023. This is an increase of $141,953, or approximately 68%. Operating expense in this segment increased to $403,815 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, from $119,344 for the same period in 2023. This is an increase of $284,471, or approximately 238%. This increase in operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 is primarily the result of $230,000 of waste disposal costs that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2024 with no comparable expense in the same period in 2023. We had a net loss for cobalt products of $51,805 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to a net income of $90,713 for the same period in 2023. The decrease in net income of $142,518, or approximately 157%, was attributable to increased waste expense partially offset by the increase in sales and gross profit. 

 

 

Nuclear Medicine Standards. Revenue from nuclear medicine products for the three months ended September 30, 2024, was $926,402, compared to $1,054,680 for the same period in 2023. This represents a decrease in revenue of $128,278, or approximately 12%. The decrease is due to a global shortage of Cobalt-57 isotope during the three months ended September 30, 2024, which began in January of 2024. Due to this shortage of raw material and our inability to deliver products, we experienced extraordinary rates of cancellations of orders throughout FY2024, causing a loss of revenue of more than $300,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.  In the third quarter of 2024 our supply of Cobalt-57 was restored, we have seen a sharp decrease in cancellations as we have been able to process backlogged orders. We expect an increase in revenue as we catch up on backlogged orders throughout the remainder of 2024 and into the first quarter of 2025 as our global isotope supply chain has been normalized.

 

Cost of sales for our nuclear medicine standards segment for the three months ended September 30, 2024, was $435,048, as compared to $470,130 for the same period in 2023. The decrease in cost of sales in the period-to-period comparison of $35,082, or 7%, was due to decreased revenue during the three-month period ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023. Gross profit for our nuclear medicine standards segment for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $491,354 compared to $584,550 for the same period in 2023. This is a decrease in gross profit of $93,196, or approximately 16%.

 

Operating expense for this segment for the three months ended September 30, 2024 decreased to $451,835, from $509,834 for the same period in 2023. This is a decrease of $57,999, or approximately 11%, and is the result of the decreased sales activity in the segment. Net income for this segment for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $39,519, compared to a net income of $74,716 for the same period in 2023. This is a decrease in net income of $35,197 and is the result of decreased revenue. 

 

Medical Device Products. For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we had no revenue for our Medical Device Products segment.

 

Operating expense for this segment for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $167,451 with no operating expenses in the same period in 2023. Expenses include costs for labor, professional services, and research and development related to the startup of this new business segment as no commercial activities have begun.

 

Fluorine Products. For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we had no revenue for our fluorine products segment.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we incurred $26,095 of expenses related to maintenance of plans, designs, and other assets for a proposed de-conversion facility, as compared to $27,870 for the same three-month period in 2023

 

On February 8, 2024, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell all of our assets related to the Fluorine Products segment and the Planned Uranium De-Conversion Facility. We expect to close the agreement within 12 to 24 months of signing. Closing is contingent on various conditions being met, including approvals and agreements by the NRC and other third parties. Upon closing of this agreement, the costs of maintenance for the assets in this segment would not continue. With no assets nor operating activities, this business segment would be phased out.

Operating expense increased approximately 8% to $6,599,765 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, from $6,100,809 for the same period in 2023. This increase of $498,956 is due to a 20% increase in General, Administrative, and Consulting Expenses and a 20% increase in Research and Development costs which was offset by a 3% decrease in Salaries and Contract Labor Expenses. The increase in General, Administrative, and Consulting Expenses is primarily the result of increased professional expenses for building out Medical Device segments and waste disposal expenses that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023. We had one-time professional expenses of approximately $200,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 related to legal consulting and root cause audits for NRC enforcement and settlement for a violation that occurred in 2022, and we had $230,000 of waste disposal expenses. The increase in Research and Development cost is due to increased expenses related to product development during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023. Research and Development cost includes approximately $150,000 of legal fees related to one-time licensing and intellectual property expense in the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in Salaries and Contract Labor Expenses is primarily due to decreased officer compensation.

Other income was $176,094 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $123,803 for the same period in 2023. This is an increase of $52,291, or approximately 42%, was due to an increase in miscellaneous income partially offset by $63,000 of other expense for NRC fines. We have taken extensive internal actions to mitigate the risk of any similar violations and penalties occurring again. These matters have been finalized with the NRC.

 

Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $244,695, compared to $247,542 for the same period in 2023. This is a decrease of $2,847, or approximately 1%. Interest expense includes dividends accrued on our Series C Preferred Stock. As discussed below, we issued Series C Preferred Stock in February 2017 and May 2017. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, we accrued dividends payable of $151,008 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, which have been recorded as interest expense. See Note 7 “Debt” to our unaudited consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report for additional information about our indebtedness and the associated interest expense.

 

On September 25, 2024, with the approval of a majority of holders of the Series C Preferred Stock, the mandatory redemption date of the Series C Preferred was extended for an additional two years to February 28, 2027.

 

Our net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was $237,245 compared to net loss of $759,961 for the same period in 2023. This is a decrease in net loss of $522,716, or approximately 69% improvement, that is largely the result of increased revenue in our Theranostics Products and Cobalt Products segments and increased gross profit percentages partially offset by the decrease in revenue in our Nuclear Medicine Standards Products segment coupled with continued investment in the start-up of our Medical Device Products segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023.

 

Theranostics Products. Revenue from the sale of theranostics products for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $6,257,410, compared to $5,033,337 for the same period in 2023. This is an increase of $1,224,073, or approximately 24% during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase is the result of continued growth in sales of our generic sodium iodide I-131 drug product. We expect this sales growth to continue for our Theranostics products going forward, primarily from the sale of our generic sodium iodide I-131 drug product and new sales of theranostic API product.

 

Gross profit of theranostics products for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $4,498,675, compared to $3,269,100 for the same period in 2023, an increase of 38%. Gross profit percentages were approximately 72% and 65% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Cost of sales for theranostics products decreased to $1,758,735 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $1,764,237 for the same period in 2023. The increase in gross profit percentage was primarily the result of increased utilization and decreased pricing for our raw material isotope. Operating expense for this segment decreased to $1,024,555 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $1,097,120 for the same period in 2023. This decrease in operating expense of $72,565, or approximately 7% was primarily due to decreased labor costs. This segment reported net income of $3,474,120 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to net income of $2,171,980 for the same period in 2023. The increase in net income of $1,302,140 or 60% is the result of increases in revenue, increased gross profit percentage, and decreased expenses.

Cobalt Products. Revenue from the sale of cobalt products for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $1,641,012, compared to $935,544 for the same period in 2023. This represents an increase of $705,468, or approximately 75%. The increase was primarily due to the timing of cobalt sealed source manufacturing sales and available of cobalt-60 raw material. Large value sales of high activity cobalt sources occur at various times throughout the year. Frequently the timing of these sales can have a significant impact on period comparisons.

 

Cost of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was $901,546, as compared to $456,280, for the same period in 2023. Gross profit for cobalt products for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $739,466 compared to $479,264 for the same period in 2023. This is an increase of $260,202 or approximately 54% and is attributable to increased revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Operating expense in this segment increased to $758,272 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, from $361,156 for the same period in 2023. This is an increase of $397,116, or approximately 110%. This increase in operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 is primarily the result of increased waste disposal costs including a $230,000 waste disposal expense that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to the same period in 2023. Our net loss for cobalt products was $18,806 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to a net income of $118,108 for the same period in 2023. The decrease in net income of $136,914, or approximately 116%, was attributable to a $230,000 waste disposal expense partially offset by increased revenue and gross profit. 

 

 

Nuclear Medicine Standards. Revenue from nuclear medicine products for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was $2,099,713, compared to $3,151,375 for the same period in 2023. This represents a decrease in revenue of $1,051,662, or approximately 33%. The decrease is due to a global shortage of Cobalt-57 isotope during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 beginning in January 2024. Due to this shortage of raw material and inability to deliver products, we experienced extraordinary rates of cancellations of orders throughout FY2024, causing an overall loss of revenue of more than $300,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. In the third quarter of 2024 our main supply of Cobalt-57 was restored. We have seen a sharp decrease in cancellations of orders, and we have been able to process through our backlogged orders. We expect increased revenue due to this backlog catch-up throughout the remainder of 2024 and potentially into the first quarter of 2025 as our global isotope supply chain has normalized.

 

Cost of sales for our nuclear medicine standards segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was $1,004,804, as compared to $1,484,422 for the same period in 2023. The decrease in cost of sales in the period-to-period comparison of $479,618, or 32%, was due to decreased revenue during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in 2023. Gross profit for our nuclear medicine standards segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $1,094,909 compared to $1,666,953 for the same period in 2023 This is a decrease in gross profit of $572,044, or approximately 34%.

 

Operating expense for this segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 decreased to $1,423,652, from $1,453,724 for the same period in 2023. This is a decrease of $30,072, or approximately 2%. Net loss for this segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $328,743, compared to a net income of $213,229 for the same period in 2023. This is a decrease in net income of $541,972, or approximately 254% and is the result of decreased revenue.

 

Medical Device Products. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we had no revenue for our Medical Device Products segment as no commercial activities have begun.

 

Operating expense for this segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $279,801 with no operating expenses in the same period in 2023. Expenses include costs for labor, professional services, and research and development related to the startup of this new business segment.

 

Fluorine Products. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we had no operating revenue for our fluorine products segment.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we incurred $80,941 of expenses related to maintenance of plans, designs, and other assets for a proposed de-conversion facility, as compared to $79,004 for the same nine-month period in 2023.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we received other income of $50,000 for payments related to the DUF6 Asset Sale. As compared to $7,920 of other income for the same nine-month period in 2023.

 

On February 8, 2024, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell all of our assets related to the Fluorine Products segment and the Planned Uranium De-Conversion Facility. We expect to close the agreement within 12 to 24 months of signing. Closing is contingent on various conditions being met, including approvals and agreements by the NRC and other third parties. Upon closing of this agreement, the costs of maintenance for the assets in this segment would not continue. With no assets nor operating activities, this business segment would be phased out.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

At September 30, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of $2,372,983 as compared to $2,688,141 at December 31, 2023. This is a decrease of $315,158 or approximately 12%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net cash provided by operating activities was $568,215 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net cash provided in operating activities was $697,645. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was a result of a one-time receipt of a tax refund receivable in 2023.

 

This decrease in cash and cash equivalents at period end is mainly due to a $484,000 transfer from cash and cash equivalents to restricted cash to fund an increase to our decommissioning funding plan. Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash increased by $218,867 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

 

Inventories at September 30, 2024 totaled $845,041, and inventories at December 31, 2023 totaled $927,111. Our inventory consists of work in process material for our Theranostics Products, Cobalt Products, Nuclear Medicine Products, and Medical Device Products segments. The decrease in revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was mostly due to decreased inventory of Cobalt-57 raw material and Cobalt-57 finished goods due to the global shortage of Cobalt-57.

 

Cash used in investing activities was $231,307 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and cash used in investing activities was $550,629 for the same period in 2023. The cash used in both periods was for the purchase of equipment offset by sales of equipment. 

 

Cash used in financing activities was $118,041 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and cash provided by financing activities for the same period in 2023 was $403,665. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, cash paid for interest was $157,320 as compared to cash paid for interest of $159,926. the for the same nine-month period in 2023. Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we received $8,627 in proceeds from the sale of our common stock through our Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as compared to $7,127 in proceeds from the sale of our common stock through our Employee Stock Purchase Plan in 2023. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, principal payments on notes payable were $124,364, as compared to $50,792 for the same period in 2023.

 

In February 2024, we paid our annual dividend on the Series C Preferred Stock. Dividends payable totaled $243,780 at that time. Some holders of the Series C Preferred Stock elected to settle their dividend payments with shares of the Company’s common stock in lieu of cash. The Company issued 1,808,400 shares of common stock in lieu of a dividend payment of $90,420. The remaining $153,360 of dividend payable was settled with cash.

 

On September 25, 2024, with the approval of a majority of holders of the Series C Preferred Stock, the mandatory redemption date of the Series C Preferred was extended for an additional two years to February 28, 2027.

 

Total increase in cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was $218,867 compared to a cash increase of $550,681 for the same period in 2023.

 

We expect that cash from operations, cash raised via equity financing, and our current cash balance will be sufficient to fund operations for the next twelve months. Our future liquidity and capital funding requirements will depend on numerous factors, including commercial relationships, technological developments, market factors, available credit, and preferred stock shareholders. There is no assurance that additional capital and financing will be available on acceptable terms to the Company or at all.

Debt

 

In December 2013, we entered into a promissory note agreement with our then Chairman of the Board and one of our major shareholders, pursuant to which we borrowed $500,000 (the 2013 Promissory Note). The 2013 Promissory Note is secured and bears interest at 6% per annum and was originally due June 30, 2014. According to the terms of the 2013 Promissory Note, at any time, the lenders may settle any or all of the principal and accrued interest with shares of our common stock. In June 2014, pursuant to a modification, the maturity date was extended to December 31, 2017. In February 2017, the 2013 Promissory Note was further modified to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2020, with all remaining terms unchanged. In December 2019, the 2013 Promissory Note was further modified to extend the maturity date to December 31, 2021, with all remaining terms unchanged.

At September 30, 2024, accrued interest payable on the 2013 Promissory Note was $324,234.

 

In April 2018, we borrowed $120,000 from our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board pursuant to a promissory note (the 2018 Promissory Note). The 2018 Promissory Note accrues interest at 6% per annum, which is payable upon maturity of the 2018 Promissory Note. The 2018 Promissory Note was originally unsecured and originally matured on August 1, 2018. At any time, the holder of the 2018 Promissory Note may elect to have any or all of the principal and accrued interest settled with shares of our common stock based on the average price of the shares over the previous 20 trading days.
