Note 1. Interim Fina nci al Statements

The accompanying financial statements of ChromaDex Corporation (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries, ChromaDex, Inc., ChromaDex Analytics, Inc. and Spherix Consulting, Inc. include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals, that, in the opinion of the management of the Company, are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of April 4, 2015 and results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended April 4, 2015 and March 29, 2014. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended January 3, 2015 appearing in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on March 19, 2015. Operating results for the three months ended April 4, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the full year ending on January 2, 2016. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The balance sheet at January 3, 2015 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

Note 2. Nature of Business and Liquidity

Nature of business : The Company is a natural products company that discovers, acquires, develops and commercializes proprietary-based ingredient technologies through its business model that utilizes its wholly owned business units, including ingredient technologies, catalog of natural product fine chemicals, chemistry and analytical testing services, and product regulatory and safety consulting services. The Company provides science-based solutions to the nutritional supplement, food and beverage, animal health, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries.

Liquidity : The Company has incurred a loss from operations of approximately $906,000 and a net loss of approximately $1,026,000 for the three-month period ended April 4, 2015. As of April 4, 2015, the cash and cash equivalents totaled approximately $3,216,000.

The Company has approximately $2,500,000 of available credit on its term loan that can be drawn down by July 31, 2015. While we anticipate that our current cash and cash equivalents on hand, cash generated from operations and the available credit on the term loan that can be drawn down will be sufficient to meet our projected operating plans through at least May 15, 2016, we may require additional funds, either through additional equity or debt financings or collaborative agreements or from other sources. We have no commitments to obtain such additional financing, and we may not be able to obtain any such additional financing on terms favorable to us, or at all. If adequate financing is not available, the Company will further delay, postpone or terminate product and service expansion and curtail certain selling, general and administrative operations. The inability to raise additional financing may have a material adverse effect on the future performance of the Company.

Note 3. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation : The financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared on a consolidated basis and reflect the consolidated financial position of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated from these financial statements. The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to December 31. Every fifth or sixth fiscal year, the inclusion of an extra week occurs due to the Company’s floating year-end date. The fiscal year 2014 ended on January 3, 2015 consisted of 53 weeks. The fiscal year 2015 ending on January 2, 2016 will include the normal 52 weeks.

Changes in accounting principle: In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03, Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The amendments in this ASU require that debt issuance costs related to a debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs have not changed. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the amendments is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued.

-5-

Table of Contents

The Company early adopted the amendments in this ASU effective as of April 4, 2015. As of April 4, 2015 and January 3, 2015, the Company had unamortized debt issuance costs of $80,455 and $91,361, respectively. The Company had previously presented the debt issuance costs as other noncurrent assets in its consolidated balance sheet as of January 3, 2015 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission on March 19, 2015. The early adoption has resulted in adjustments to the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of January 3, 2015, by reclassifying the debt issuance costs as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability. Below are the effects of the change on the consolidated balance sheet as of January 3, 2015.

Stock Awards

On January 27, 2015, the Company awarded 350,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to non-employees. 210,000 of these shares were fully vested and non-forfeitable and the remaining 140,000 shares can be surrendered and forfeited if the Company delivers termination notices for any reason prior to May 28, 2015. The fair value of the awards for the fully vested 210,000 shares was $180,600, and was measured based on the trading price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant. This fair value was expensed immediately on the date of grant. The expense for the remaining forfeitable 140,000 shares are recognized ratably through May 28, 2015. The fair values will be remeasured until the shares are fully vested.

As of April 4, 2015, there was approximately $98,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to the stock awards to non-employees. That cost is expected to be recognized over a period of approximately 2 months as of April 4, 2015.

Restricted Stock

Restricted stock awards granted by the Company to non-employees generally feature time vesting service conditions, specified in the respective service agreements. Restricted stock awards issued to non-employees are accounted for at current fair value through the vesting period. The fair value of vested non-employee restricted shares awarded during the three months ended April 4, 2015 was approximately $7,000, which represents the market value of the Company’s common stock on respective vesting dates charged to expense.

ITEM 2. MANAGE MEN T'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

This Quarterly Report on Form 10−Q (the “Form 10−Q”) contains “forward-looking statements,” as defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements reflect the Company’s current expectations of the future results of its operations, performance and achievements. Forward-looking statements are covered under the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company has tried, wherever possible, to identify these statements by using words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “plans,” “intends” and similar expressions. These statements reflect management’s current beliefs and are based on information now available to it. Accordingly, these statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and contingencies that could cause the Company’s actual results, performance or achievements in 2015 and beyond to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, such statements. Such statements, include, but are not limited to, statements contained in this Form 10-Q relating to our business, financial performance, business strategy, recently announced transactions and capital outlook. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward- looking statements include: a continued decline in general economic conditions nationally and internationally; decreased demand for our products and services; market acceptance of our products; the ability to protect our intellectual property rights; the impact of any litigation or infringement actions brought against us; competition from other providers and products; risks in product development; the inability to raise capital to fund continuing operations; changes in government regulation; the ability to complete customer transactions, and other factors relating to our industry, our operations and results of operations and any businesses that may be acquired by us. Should one or more of these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned. Additional risks, uncertainties, and other factors are set forth under Item 1A “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending January 3, 2015 and filed with the Commission on March 19, 2015 and in future reports the Company files with the Commission. Readers of this Form 10−Q should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Except as required by federal securities laws, the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements to reflect new events or uncertainties.

You should read the following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company together with the financial statements and the related notes presented in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Table of Contents

Overview

We discover, acquire, develop and commercialize proprietary-based ingredient technologies through our business model which utilizes our wholly-owned synergistic business units. These units include the supply of phytochemical reference standards, which are small quantities of plant-based compounds typically used to research an array of potential attributes, and reference materials, related contract services, and proprietary ingredients. We perform chemistry-based analytical services at our laboratory in Boulder, Colorado, typically in support of quality control or quality assurance activities within the dietary supplement industry. Through our subsidiary Spherix Consulting, Inc., we also provide scientific and regulatory consulting to clients in the food, supplement and pharmaceutical industries to manage potential health and regulatory risks.

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues, if any, and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate such estimates and judgments, including those described in greater detail below. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The Company has approximately $2,500,000 of available credit on its term loan that can be drawn down by July 31, 2015. We anticipate that our current cash and cash equivalents on hand, cash generated from operations and the available credit on the term loan that can be drawn down will be sufficient to meet our projected operating plans through at least May 15, 2016. We may, however, seek additional capital prior to May 15, 2016, both to meet our projected operating plans after May 15, 2016 and/or to fund our longer term strategic objectives.

Additional capital may come from public and/or private stock or debt offerings, borrowings under lines of credit or other sources. These additional funds may not be available on favorable terms, or at all. Further, if we issue equity or debt securities to raise additional funds, our existing stockholders may experience dilution and the new equity or debt securities we issue may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our existing stockholders. In addition, if we raise additional funds through collaboration, licensing or other similar arrangements, it may be necessary to relinquish valuable rights to our products or proprietary technologies, or to grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. If we cannot raise funds on acceptable terms, we may not be able to develop or enhance our products, obtain the required regulatory clearances or approvals, achieve long term strategic objectives, take advantage of future opportunities, or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated customer requirements. Any of these events could adversely affect our ability to achieve our development and commercialization goals, which could have a material and adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. If we are unable to establish small to medium scale production capabilities through our own plant or though collaboration we may be unable to fulfill our customers’ requirements. This may cause a loss of future revenue streams as well as require us to look for third party vendors to provide these services. These vendors may not be available, or charge fees that prevent us from pricing competitively within our markets.

Some of our operations are subject to regulation by various state and federal agencies. In addition, we expect a significant increase in the regulation of our target markets. Dietary supplements are subject to FDA, FTC and U.S. Department of Agriculture regulations relating to composition, labeling and advertising claims. These regulations may in some cases, particularly with respect to those applicable to new ingredients, require a notification that must be submitted to the FDA along with evidence of safety. There are similar regulations related to food additives.

Results of Operations

Our net sales and net loss for the three-month periods ending on April 4, 2015 and March 29, 2014 were as follows:

	Three months ending
	April 4, 2015			March 29, 2014

Net sales	$	5,261,000		$	3,074,000
Net loss		(1,026,000	)		(1,848,000	)

Basic and Diluted loss per common share	$	(0.01	)	$	(0.02	)

Over the next two years, we plan to continue to increase research and development efforts for our line of proprietary ingredients, subject to available financial resources.

Net Sales

Net sales consist of gross sales less discounts and returns.

	Three months ending
	April 4, 2015		March 29, 2014		Change
Net sales:
Ingredients	$	2,680,000	$	1,136,000		136	%
Core standards and contract services		2,300,000		1,736,000		32	%
Scientific and regulatory consulting		281,000		202,000		39	%

Total net sales	$	5,261,000	$	3,074,000		71	%

The increase in sales for the ingredients segment is due to increased sales throughout most of the ingredients we sell, including “NIAGEN®,” “PURENERGY®,” and “PTEROPURE®.”

The increase in sales for the core standards and contract services segment is primarily due to increased sales of analytical testing and contract services.

The increase in sales for the scientific and regulatory consulting segment is mainly due to completion of more consulting projects during the three-month period ended April 4, 2015. In the comparable period in 2014, we did not complete as many projects due to client related delays.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales include raw materials, labor, overhead, and delivery costs.

	Three months ending
	April 4, 2015					March 29, 2014
	Amount		% of net sales			Amount		% of net sales
Cost of sales:
Ingredients	$	1,603,000		60	%	$	718,000		63	%
Core standards and contract services		1,574,000		68	%		1,194,000		69	%
Scientific and regulatory consulting		156,000		56	%		177,000		88	%

Total cost of sales	$	3,333,000		63	%	$	2,089,000		68	%

The cost of sales, as a percentage of net sales, decreased 5% for the three-month period ended April 4, 2015 compared to the three-month period ended March 29, 2014.

The decrease in cost of sales, as a percentage of net sales, for the ingredients segment is largely due to the increased purchase volume, which enabled us to obtain lower prices from our suppliers as a result.

The cost of sales as a percentage of net sales for the core standards and contract services segment slightly decreased to 68% from 69%. The increase in analytical testing and contract services sales led to a higher labor utilization rate, which resulted in lowing our cost of sales as a percentage of net sales. However, this was offset by increased costs in fine chemical reference standards as additional reserves were placed for the portion of the inventory that are considered slow-moving and obsolete.

The percentage decrease in cost of sales for the scientific and regulatory consulting segment is largely due to increased sales as fixed labor costs make up the majority of costs for the consulting segment.

Gross Profit

Gross profit is net sales less the cost of sales and is affected by a number of factors including product mix, competitive pricing and costs of products and services.

	Three months ending
	April 4, 2015		March 29, 2014		Change
Gross profit:
Ingredients	$	1,077,000	$	418,000		158	%
Core standards and contract services		727,000		542,000		34	%
Scientific and regulatory consulting		124,000		25,000		396	%

Total gross profit	$	1,928,000	$	985,000		96	%

The increased gross profit for the ingredients segment is due to the increased sales throughout the ingredient portfolio we offer, as well as obtaining lower prices from our suppliers as a result of increased purchase volumes.

The increased gross profit for the core standards and contract services segment is largely due to the increased sale of analytical testing and contract services. Fixed labor costs make up the majority of costs for analytical testing and contract services and these fixed labor costs did not increase in proportion to sales, hence yielding a more profit.

The increased gross profit for the scientific and regulatory consulting segment is due to the increase in sales which resulted in a higher labor utilization rate.

Operating Expenses-Sales and Marketing

Sales and Marketing Expenses consist of salaries, advertising and marketing expenses.

	Three months ending
	April 4, 2015		March 29, 2014		Change
Sales and marketing expenses:
Ingredients	$	275,000	$	240,000		15	%
Core standards and contract services		311,000		213,000		46	%
Scientific and regulatory consulting		-		12,000		-100	%

Total sales and marketing expenses	$	586,000	$	465,000		26	%

For the ingredients segment, the increase is largely due to increased marketing efforts for our line of proprietary ingredients.

For the core standards and contract services segment, the increase is largely due to hiring two additional sales and marketing staff and making certain operational changes.

For the scientific and regulatory consulting segment, we did not incur any sales and marketing expenses for the three-month period ended April 4, 2015.

Operating Expenses-General and Administrative

General and Administrative Expenses consist of research and development, general company administration, IT, accounting and executive management.

	Three months ending
	April 4, 2015		March 29, 2014		Change

General and administrative	$	2,248,000	$	2,338,000		-4	%

One of the factors that contributed to the decrease in general and administrative expense was a decrease in share-based compensation. For the three-month period ended April 4, 2015, our share-based compensation decreased to approximately $716,000, compared to approximately $1,000,000 for the comparable period in 2014.

Non-operating income- Interest Income

Interest income consists of interest earned on money market accounts. Interest income for the three-month period ended April 4, 2015 was approximately $1,000, essentially equal to approximately $1,000 for the three-month period ended March 29, 2014.

Non-operating Expenses- Interest Expense

Interest expense consists of interest on loan payable and capital leases.

	Three months ending
	April 4, 2015		March 29, 2014		Change

Interest expense	$	120,000	$	10,000		1100	%

The increase in interest expense was largely related to the Term Loan Agreement dated September 29, 2014, between the Company and Hercules Technology II, L.P., under which the Company has the right to draw down up to $5.0 million; the Company drew down $2.5 million of that total on September 29, 2014.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation expense for the three-month period ended April 4, 2015, was approximately $67,000 as compared to $51,000 for the three-month period ended March 29, 2014. We depreciate our assets on a straight-line basis, based on the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Amortization expense of intangible assets for the three-month period ended April 4, 2015, was approximately $10,000 as compared to $8,000 for the three-month period ended March 29, 2014. We amortize intangible assets using a straight-line method over 10 years.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

From inception and through April 4, 2015, we have incurred aggregate losses of approximately $41 million. These losses are primarily due to expenses associated with the development and expansion of our operations. These operations have been financed through capital contributions, the issuance of common stock and warrants through private placements, and the issuance of debt.

Our board of directors periodically reviews our capital requirements in light of our proposed business plan. Our future capital requirements will remain dependent upon a variety of factors, including cash flow from operations, the ability to increase sales, increasing our gross profits from current levels, reducing selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales, continued development of customer relationships, and our ability to market our new products successfully. However, based on our results from operations, we may determine that we need additional financing to implement our business plan. There can be no assurance that any such financing will be available on terms favorable to us or at all. Without adequate financing we may have to further delay or terminate product and service expansion and curtail certain selling, general and administrative expenses. Any inability to raise additional financing would have a material adverse effect on us.

The Company has approximately $2,500,000 of available credit on its term loan that can be drawn down by July 31, 2015. While we anticipate that our current cash and cash equivalents on hand, and cash generated from operations and the available credit on the term loan that can be drawn down will be sufficient to meet our projected operating plans through at least May 15, 2016, we may seek additional capital prior to May 15, 2016, both to meet our projected operating plans through and after May 15, 2016 and to fund our longer term strategic objectives. To the extent we are unable to raise additional cash or generate sufficient revenue to meet our projected operating plans prior to May 15, 2016, we will revise our projected operating plans accordingly.

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended April 4, 2015 was approximately $591,000 as compared to approximately $1,405,000 for the three months ended March 29, 2014. Along with the net loss, decrease in accounts payable and increase in trade receivables were the largest uses of cash during the three-month period ended April 4, 2015. Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 29, 2014 largely reflects an increase in trade receivables and an increase in inventories along with the net loss.

We expect our operating cash flows to fluctuate significantly in future periods as a result of fluctuations in our operating results, shipment timetables, accounts receivable collections, inventory management, and the timing of our payments, among other factors.

Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $101,000 for the three months ended April 4, 2015, compared to approximately $1,074,000 provided by for the three months ended March 29, 2014. Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended April 4, 2015 mainly consisted of purchases of leasehold improvements and equipment. Net cash provided by investing activities for the three months ended March 29, 2014 mainly consisted of proceeds received from the assignment of the Senior Note issued by NeutriSci to an unrelated third party. NeutriSci originally issued the Senior Note to the Company as a part of the consideration for the purchase of the BluScience product line.

Net cash used in financing activities

Net cash used in financing activities was approximately $57,000 for the three months ended April 4, 2015, compared to approximately $6,000 for the three months ended March 29, 2014. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended April 4, 2015 mainly consisted of principal payments on capital leases. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 29, 2014 mainly consisted of principal payments on capital leases, offset by proceeds from exercise of stock options.

Dividend policy

We have not declared or paid any dividends on our common stock. We presently intend to retain earnings for use in our operations and to finance our business. Any change in our dividend policy is within the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend, among other things, on our earnings, debt service and capital requirements, restrictions in financing agreements, if any, business conditions, legal restrictions and other factors that our Board of Directors deems relevant.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

During the three months ended April 4, 2015, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements other than ordinary operating leases as disclosed in the “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending January 3, 2015 and filed with the Commission on March 19, 2015.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITAT IVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

The Company had an outstanding loan payable of $2.5 million at April 4, 2015. Interest is payable monthly at the greater of either (i) 9.35% plus the prime rate as reported in The Wall Street Journal (the “Prime Rate”) minus 3.25%, or (ii) 9.35%. If the Prime Rate rises, the Company will incur more interest expenses. The loan is repayable in installments over 30 months, following an initial interest-only period until September 2015.

Our capital lease obligations bear interest at a fixed rate and therefore have no exposure to changes in interest rates.

The Company’s cash consists of short term, high liquid investments in money market funds managed by banks. Due to the short-term duration of our investment portfolio and the relatively low risk profile of our investments, a sudden change in interest rates would not have a material effect on either the fair market value of our portfolio, or our operating results or cash flows.

Foreign Currency Risk

All of our long-lived assets are located within the United States and we do not hold any foreign currency denominated financial instruments.

Effects of Inflation

We do not believe that inflation and changing prices during the three months ended April 4, 2015 and March 29, 2014 had a significant impact on our results of operations.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDU RE S

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a – 15(e) and 15d – 15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. They have concluded that, based on such evaluation, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of April 4, 2015.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a−15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that occurred during the Company’s first fiscal quarter that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
