NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

General:

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and regulations for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements are not included herein. The Company believes all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of these interim statements have been included and that they are of a normal and recurring nature. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto, included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020. The results for the three months ended September 30, 2020, are not necessarily an indication of the results for the full fiscal year ending June 30, 2021.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Scientific Industries, Inc., Altamira Instruments, Inc. (“Altamira”), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary, and Scientific Bioprocessing, Inc. (“SBI”), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary, and Scientific Packaging Industries, Inc., an inactive wholly-owned subsidiary (all collectively referred to as the “Company”). All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

COVID-19 Pandemic

The challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy began to impact the Company’s operations at the end of the third quarter of the year ended June 30, 2020. At that time, the Company took appropriate action and put plans in place to diminish the effects of COVID-19 on its operations, enabling the Company to continue to operate with minor or temporary disruptions to its operations. The Company took immediate action as it pertains to COVID-19 preparedness by implementing the Center for Disease Control’s guidelines for employers in order to protect the Company’s employees’ health and safety, with actions such as implementing work from home, social distancing in the workplace, requiring self -quarantine for any employee showing symptoms, wearing face coverings, and training employees on maintaining a healthy work environment. However, if an employee becomes infected in the future, and the Company is forced to shut down for a period of time, it could have a short-term negative impact on operations. At the beginning of the pandemic, the Catalyst Research Instruments and Bioprocessing Systems Operations were shut down due to state mandates, however, the impact on operations was immaterial, and the Company has been able to retain its employees without furloughs or layoffs, in part, due to the Company’s receipt of a $563,800 loan under the Federal Government’s Paycheck Protection Program. The Company has not experienced and does not anticipate any material impact on its ability to collect its accounts receivable due to the nature of its customers, which are primarily distributors of laboratory equipment and supplies that have the ability to pay. However, there were some delays in receiving some accounts receivable due for catalyst research instruments due to customer shutdowns, and there was a material negative impact on the revenues of the Catalyst Research Instruments operations. The Company has not experienced and does not anticipate any material impairment to its tangible and intangible assets, system of internal controls, supply chain, or delivery and distribution of its products as a result of COVID-19, however the ultimate impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows is dependent on future developments, including the duration or worsening of the pandemic and the related length of its impact on the global economy, which are uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time.

Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the The Financial Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement", which is part of the FASB disclosure framework project to improve the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to the financial statements. The amendments in the new guidance remove, modify, and add certain disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements covered in Topic 820, "Fair Value Measurement." The new standard was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption was permitted for either the entire standard or only the requirements that modify or eliminate the disclosure requirements, with certain requirements applied prospectively, and all other requirements applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The adoption of this standard on July 1, 2020 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

R Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which is designed to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740. ASU No. 2019-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years; this ASU allows for early adoption in any interim period after issuance of the update. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance .

2. Revenue

The Company records revenues in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as amended” (“ASC Topic 606”). In accordance with Topic 606, the Company accounts for a customer contract when both parties have approved the contract and are committed to perform their respective obligations, each party’s rights can be identified, payment terms can be identified, the contract has commercial substance, and it is probable that the Company will collect substantially all of the consideration to which it is entitled. Revenue is recognized when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied by transferring control of a promised product or service to a customer.

Nature of Products and Services

We generate revenues from the following sources: (1) Benchtop Laboratory Equipment, (2) Catalyst Research Instruments, and (3) Royalties.

The following table summarizes the Company’s disaggregation of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

	Benchtop Laboratory Equipment	Catalyst Research Instruments	Bioprocessing Systems	Corporate And Other	Consolidated
Three Months Ended September 30, 2020:

Revenues	$ 1,930,300	$ 137,100	$ 88,900	$ -	$ 2,156,300

Foreign Sales	631,900	57,200	86,300	-	775,400

	Benchtop Laboratory Equipment	Catalyst Research Instruments	Bioprocessing Systems	Corporate And Other	Consolidated
Three Months Ended September 30, 2019:

Revenues	$ 1,576,200	$ 138,700	$ 289,300	$ -	$ 2,004,200

Foreign Sales	397,600	71,700	-	-	469,300

Benchtop Laboratory Equipment sales are comprised primarily of standard benchtop laboratory equipment from its stock to laboratory equipment distributors, or to end users primarily via e-commerce. The sales cycle from time of receipt of order to shipment is very short varying from a day to a few weeks. Customers either pay by credit card (online sales) or net 30-90 days, depending on the customer. Once the item is shipped under the FOB terms specified in the order, which is primarily “FOB Factory”, other than a standard warranty, there are no other obligations to the customer. The standard warranty is typically for a period of, one to two years for parts and labor and is deemed immaterial.

Catalyst Research Instrument sales are comprised primarily of large instruments which begin with a standard model and then are customized to a customer’s specifications. The sales cycle can be quite long, typically ranging from one to three months, from the time an order is received to the time the instrument is shipped to the customer. Payment terms vary from customer to customer and can include advance payments which are recorded as contract liabilities. Some contracts call for training and installation, which is considered ancillary and not a material part of the contract. Due to the size and nature of the instruments, the Company subjects the instruments to an extensive factory acceptance testing process prior to shipment to ensure that they are fully operational once they reach the customer’s site. Normally, the Company warrantees its instruments for a period of twelve months for parts and labor the fulfillment of which normally consists of replacement of small components or software support.

Royalty revenues pertain to royalties earned by the Company, which are paid on a calendar year basis, under a licensing agreement from a single licensee and its sublicenses. The Company is then obligated to pay 50% of all royalties received to the entity that licenses the intellectual property to the Company. During the year, the Company’s management uses its best judgement to estimate the royalty revenues earned during the period.

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

	●	Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer
	●	Identification of the performance obligations in the contract
	●	Determination of the transaction price
	●	Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
	●	Recognition of revenue when, or as, a performance obligation is satisfied

The Company has made the following accounting policy elections and elected to use certain practical expedients, as permitted by the FASB, in applying ASC Topic 606: 1) all revenues are recorded net of returns, allowances, customer discounts, and incentives; 2) although sales and other taxes are immaterial, the Company accounts for amounts collected from customers for sales and other taxes, if any, net of related amounts remitted to tax authorities; 3) the Company expenses costs to obtain a contract as they are incurred if the expected period of benefit, and therefore the amortization period, is one year or less; 4) the Company accounts for shipping and handling activities that occur after control transfers to the customer as a fulfillment cost rather than an additional promised service and these fulfillment costs fall within selling expenses; 5) the Company is always considered the principal and never an agent, because it has full control and responsibility until title is transferred to the customer; 6) the Company does not assess whether promised goods or services are performance obligations if they are immaterial in the context of the contract with the customer such as is the case with catalyst instruments.

3. Segment Information and Concentrations

The Company views its operations as three segments: the manufacture and marketing of standard benchtop laboratory equipment for research in university, hospital and industrial laboratories sold primarily through laboratory equipment distributors and laboratory and pharmacy balances and scales (“Benchtop Laboratory Equipment Operations”), the manufacture and marketing of custom-made catalyst research instruments for universities, government laboratories, and chemical and petrochemical companies sold on a direct basis (“Catalyst Research Instruments Operations”) and the design and marketing of bioprocessing systems and products and related royalty income (“Bioprocessing Systems”).

Approximately 47% and 36% of net sales of Benchtop Laboratory Equipment for the three month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, were derived from the Company’s main product, the Vortex-Genie 2 mixer, excluding accessories.

Approximately 27% and 33% of total Benchtop Laboratory Equipment sales were derived from the Torbal Scales Division for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

For the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, three customers accounted for approximately 23% (both periods) of net sales of the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment Operations (21% and 18% of the Company’s total revenues). Sales of Catalyst Research Instruments are generally comprised of a few very large orders averaging approximately $50,000 per order to a limited number of customers, who differ from order to order. Sales to two customers during the three months ended September 30, 2020 accounted for approximately 88% of the Catalyst Research Instruments Operations revenues and 6% of the Company’s total revenues. Sales to two other customers during the three months ended September 30, 2019 accounted for approximately 90% of the Catalyst Research Instrument Operations’ revenues and 6% of the Company’s total revenues .

4. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The FASB defines the fair value of financial instruments as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements do not include transaction costs.

The accounting guidance also expands the disclosure requirements around fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Each fair value measurement is reported in one of the three levels, which is determined by the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are described below:

Level 1 - Inputs that are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.

Level 2 - Quoted prices in markets that are not considered to be active or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3 - Prices or valuation that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

In valuing assets and liabilities, the Company is required to maximize the use of quoted market prices and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company calculated the fair value of its Level 1 and 2 instruments based on the exchange traded price of similar or identical instruments where available or based on other observable instruments. These calculations take into consideration the credit risk of both the Company and its counterparties. The Company has not changed its valuation techniques in measuring the fair value of any financial assets and liabilities during the period.

The fair value of the contingent consideration obligations are based on a probability weighted approach derived from the estimates of earn-out criteria and the probability assessment with respect to the likelihood of achieving those criteria. The measurement is based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market, therefore, the Company classifies this liability as Level 3 in the following tables.

The following tables set forth by level within the fair value hierarchy the Company’s financial assets that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2020 and June 30, 2020 according to the valuation techniques the Company used to determine their fair values:

Total amortization expense was $15,800 and $19,500 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. As of September 30, 2020, estimated future amortization expense related to intangible assets is $44,000 for the remainder of the fiscal year ending, June 30, 2021, $36,800 for fiscal 2022, $20,200 for fiscal 2023, $16,400 for fiscal 2024 and $11,600 for fiscal 2025.

7. Loss Per Common Share

Loss per common share data was computed as follows:

	For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2020	For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2019
Loss	$ (263,300 )	$ (56,200 )

Weighted average common shares outstanding	2,861,263	1,494,212

Basic loss per common share	(.09 )	(.04 )
Diluted loss per common share	(.09 )	(.04 )

Approximately 126,700 and 1,349,850 shares of the Company's common stock issuable upon the exercise of options and warrants, respectively, were excluded from the calculation because the effect would be anti-dilutive due to the loss for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Approximately, 44,200 shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options were excluded from the calculation for the three months ended September 30, 2019 because they were anti-dilutive.

8. Leases

The Company recognizes all long-term leases on its balance sheet as a liability for its lease obligation, measured at the present value of lease payments not yet paid, and a corresponding asset representing its right to use the underlying asset over the lease term.

The Company leases certain properties consisting principally of a facility in Bohemia, New York (headquarters) through January 2025, a facility in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania for its Catalyst Research Instrument Operations through November 2020 and on a month to month basis thereafter, and another facility in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania for its Bioprocessing Systems Operations through May 2023, and a sales and administration office in Orangeburg, New York for its Torbal Division of the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment Operations through October 2022. There are no renewal options with any of the leases, no residual values or significant restrictions or covenants other than those customary in such arrangements, and no non-cash activities, and any rent escalations incorporated within the leases are included in the calculation of the future minimum lease payments, as further described below. All of the Company’s leases are deemed operating leases.

The Company determines whether an agreement contains a lease at inception based on the Company’s right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the identified asset and its right to direct the use of the identified asset. Lease liabilities represent the present value of future lease payments and the Right-Of-Use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use the underlying assets for the respective lease terms. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. The ROU asset is further adjusted to account for previously recorded lease expenses such as deferred rent and other lease liabilities. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate of 5.0% as the discount rate to calculate the present value of future lease payments, which was the interest rate that its bank would charge for a similar loan.

The Company elected not to recognize a ROU asset and a lease liability for leases with an initial term of twelve months or less. In addition to minimum lease payments, certain leases require payment of a proportionate share of real estate taxes and certain building operating expenses or payments based on an excess of a specified base. These variable lease costs are not included in the measurement of the ROU asset or lease liability due to unpredictability of the payment amount and are recorded as lease expenses in the period incurred. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain residual value guarantees.

The Company elected available practical expedients for existing or expired contracts of lessees wherein the Company is not required to reassess whether such contracts contain leases, the lease classification or the initial direct costs. The Company is not utilizing the practical expedient which allows the use of hindsight by lessees and lessors in determining the lease term and in assessing impairment of its ROU assets. The Company utilized the transition method allowing entities to only apply the new lease standard in the year of adoption.

As of September 30, 2020, the weighted-average remaining lease term for operating lease liabilities was approximately 3.5 years and the weighted-average discount rate was 5.0%. Total cash payments under these leases were $78,600, of which $78,800 was recorded as leases expense.

The Company’s approximate future minimum rental payments under all leases existing at September 30, 2020 through February 2025 are as follows:

Fiscal year ending June 30,	Amount
Remainder of 2021	$ 204,200
2022	260,300
2023	245,300
2024	195,900
2025	91,600

Total future minimum payments	997,300
Less: Imputed interest	93,000

Total Present Value of Operating Lease Liabilities	904,300

I tem 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking statements. Certain statements contained in this report are not based on historical facts, but are forward-looking statements that are based upon various assumptions about future conditions. Actual events in the future could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking information. Numerous unknown factors and future events could cause such differences, including but not limited to, product demand, market acceptance, success of marketing strategy, success of expansion efforts, impact of competition, adverse economic conditions, and other factors affecting the Company’s business that are beyond the Company’s control, which are discussed elsewhere in this report. Consequently, no forward-looking statement can be guaranteed. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this report.

Overview. The Company reflected a loss before income tax benefit of $324,400 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to a loss before income tax benefit of $75,500 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, primarily due to increased operating expenses incurred by the Company’s Bioprocessing Systems Operations, partially offset by increased income from the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment Operations resulting from increased orders for its Genie™ brand products. The Bioprocessing Systems Operations continues to expand its operations with additional personnel and infrastructure and investing in sales and marketing.

Results of Operations. Net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2020 increased $152,100 (7.6%) to $2,156,300 from $2,004,200 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, reflecting an increase of $354,100 (22.5%) in net sales of Benchtop Laboratory Equipment primarily due to sales of its Genie brand products, which are used in COVID related research and testing. The Benchtop Laboratory Equipment sales reflected $517,700 of Torbal® brand product sales for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $522,400 in the three months ended September 30, 2019 due to decreased sales of pharmacy scales, partially offset by increased sales of its new automated pill counter. Sales of Catalyst Research Instruments decreased slightly by $1,600 to $137,100 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $138,700 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 with an order backlog for Catalyst Research Instruments of $263,500, all of which is expected to be shipped during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021, compared to $173,500 as of September 30, 2019. Revenues derived from the Bioprocessing Systems Operations which are comprised primarily of net royalties accrued from sublicenses decreased by $200,400 (69.3%) to $88,900 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $289,300 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 due to decreased royalties resulting from the termination of the Company’s previously held European patent.

The gross profit percentage on a combined basis was 46.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to 48.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 due primarily to lower margins on the Catalyst Research Instruments. However, gross margins for the Benchtop Laboratory Equipment Operations were higher due to increased sales, particularly of higher margin products.

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2020 increased by $69,400 (13.6%) to $579,600 compared to $510,200 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 mainly due to the expansion of the Scientific Bioprocessing Operations with increased personnel and related expenses, and corporate expenses

Selling expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2020 increased $212,600 (68.8%) to $521,700 from $309,100 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 primarily due to increased sales and marketing costs related to new personnel, websites, market research, and advertising expenditures by the Bioprocessing Systems Operations.

Research and development expenses increased by $7,700 (3.3%) to $244,300 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $236,600 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, mainly due to product development activities by the Bioprocessing Systems Operations.

The Company reflected an income tax benefit of $61,100 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $19,500 for the three months ended September 30, 2019, primarily due to the increased loss generated during the current period.

As a result of the foregoing, the Company recorded a net loss of $263,300 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to a net loss of $56,200 for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Liquidity and Capital Resources. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $4,204,200 to $3,355,500 as of September 30, 2020 from $7,559,700 as of June 30, 2020, due primarily to converting cash on-hand to short term liquid investments.

Net cash used in operating activities was $414,400 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $324,100 during the three months ended September 30, 2019, primarily as a result of the increased loss incurred for the current period. Net cash used in investing activities was $3,776,400 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $25,700 used during the three months ended September 30, 2019 principally due to purchases of investments, and to a lesser extent new capital equipment purchases by the Bioprocessing Systems Operations . Net cash used in financing activities was $13,400 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 all due to contingent consideration payments made to sellers of the Bioprocessing Systems Operations, compared to cash proceeds of $7,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2019 from exercises of stock options .

The Company's working capital decreased by $231,900 to $9,867,200 as of September 30, 2020 compared to $10,099,100, as of June 30, 2020 due to the loss generated during the period.
