Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

Note 1 - Nature of Business

(a)

Reporting Entity

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2014 included in Form 10-K of Akers Biosciences, Inc. and Subsidiaries (“the Company”).

The condensed consolidated financial statements include two dormant subsidiaries, Akers Acquisition Sub, Inc. and Bout Time Marketing Corporation. All material intercompany balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.

(b)

Nature of Business

The Company commenced research and development operations in September 1989, and until 2005 had devoted substantially all its efforts to establishing the new business.

The Company’s primary focus is the development and sale of disposable diagnostic testing devices that can be performed in minutes, to facilitate time sensitive therapeutic decisions. The Company’s main products are a disposable breathalyzer test that measures the blood alcohol content of the user, a rapid test detecting the antibody causing an allergic reaction to Heparin and a disposable breathalyzer test that measures Free Radical activity in the human body. When the Company enters into an agreement with a new distributor it requires an upfront licensing fee to be paid for the right to sell the Company’s products in specific markets.

Note 2 - Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

(a)

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in U.S. Dollars and in accordance with GAAP.

The Company is an emerging growth company as the term is used in The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act enacted on April 5, 2012 and has elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements.

AKERS BIOSCIENCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

(b)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. In particular, information about significant areas of estimation, uncertainty and critical judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements is included in the following notes for revenue recognition, allowances for doubtful accounts, inventory write-downs, impairment of intangible assets and valuation of share based payments.

(c)

Reclassifications

Trade receivables – related parties in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2014 and Product revenue – related parties in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 were reclassified to conform with the classification in 2015.

(d)

Foreign Currency

These condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency. All financial information presented in U.S. Dollars has been rounded to the nearest dollar. Foreign currency transaction gains or losses, resulting from loans and cash balances denominated in foreign currencies, are recorded in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

(e)

Comprehensive Income/(Loss)

The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (FASB ASC) 220 in reporting comprehensive income (loss). Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income.

(f)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances. The Company considers all highly liquid investments, which include short-term bank deposits (up to 3 months from date of deposit) that are not restricted as to withdrawal date or use, to be cash equivalents. Bank overdrafts are shown as part of trade and other payables in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

(g)

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, receivables and trade and other payables. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, receivables and trade and other payables approximate their fair value because of their short maturities. The Company believes the carrying amount of its note receivable approximates its fair value based on rates and other terms. The fair value of marketable securities is described in Note 2(g).

(h)

Fair Value Measurement – Marketable Securities

The framework for measuring fair value provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC 820 are described as follows:

	Level 1	Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.

	Level 2	Inputs to the valuation methodology include

	●	quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

	●	quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;

	●	inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability;

	●	inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The asset or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

(i)

Trade Receivables, Trade Receivables – Related Party and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The carrying amounts of current trade receivables is stated at cost, net of allowance for doubtful accounts and approximate their fair value given their short term nature.

AKERS BIOSCIENCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

The normal credit terms extended to customers ranges between 30 and 90 days. The Company reviews all receivables that exceed terms and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on management’s assessment of the collectability of trade and other receivables. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the amount of allowance. The Company considers the historical level of credit losses, makes judgments about the credit worthiness of each customer based on ongoing credit evaluations and monitors current economic trends that might impact the level of credit losses in the future.

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, allowances for doubtful accounts were $864,000 (Note 4) and $-. Allowances charged for doubtful accounts amounted to $- and $864,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and $- for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

(j)

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company is exposed to credit risk in the normal course of business primarily related to trade receivables and cash and cash equivalents.

Substantially all of the Company’s cash is maintained with Fulton Bank of New Jersey and Bank of America. The funds are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to a maximum of $250,000 per account or instrument, but are otherwise unprotected. The Company placed $361,800 and $399,417 with Fulton Bank of New Jersey, $27,532 and $52,384 with Bank of America and $4,040 with PayPal as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade receivables exists as approximately 72% of its revenue was generated by two customers for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. These customers accounted for 20% of gross trade receivables (including related parties) as of September 30, 2015. In order to limit such risks, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition.

Included in accounts receivable as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 is a receivable of $500,000 and $1,000,000 due to be paid in two installments of $500,000, the first on April 30, 2015 and the second on July 30, 2015. The April 2015 payment of $500,000 was received on August 11, 2015.

(k)

Inventories

Inventories are measured at the lower of cost or market. The cost of inventories is based on the weighted-average principle, and includes expenditures incurred in acquiring the inventories, production or conversion costs and other costs incurred in bringing them to their existing location and condition. In the case of manufactured inventories and work in progress, costs include an appropriate share of production overheads based on normal operating capacity.

(l)

Property, Plant and Equipment

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Costs include expenditures that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset.

Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and are recognized within “other income” in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Depreciation is recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations on the accelerated basis over the estimated useful lives of the property, plant and equipment. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or their useful lives.

The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:

		Useful Life
		(in years)
Plant and equipment		5-12
Furniture and fixtures		5-10
Computer equipment & software		3-5

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date.

(m)

Intangible Assets

(i)

Patents and Trade Secrets

The Company has developed or acquired several diagnostic tests that can detect the presence of various substances in a person’s breath, blood, urine and saliva. Propriety protection for the Company’s products, technology and process is important to its competitive position. As of September 30, 2015, the Company has nine patents from the United States Patent Office in effect (7,896,167; 8,097,171; 7,285,246; 7,837,936; 8,003,061; 8,425,859; 8,871,521; 5,827,749 and 8,808,639). Other patents are in effect in Australia through the Design Registry (348,310; 348,311 and 348,312), the Community Trade Mark in the European Union ((OHIM) 002216895-0001; 002216895-0002 and 002216895-0003) and in Japan (4,885,134 and 4,931,821). Patents are in the national phase of prosecution in many Patent Cooperation Treaty participating countries. Additional proprietary technology consists of numerous different inventions. The Company intends to file additional patent applications, where appropriate, relating to new products, technologies and their use in the U.S., European and Asian markets. Management intends to protect all other intellectual property (e.g. copyrights, trademarks and trade secrets) using all legal remedies available to the Company.

(ii)

Patent Costs

Costs associated with applying for patents are capitalized as patent costs. Once the patents are approved, the respective costs are amortized over their estimated useful lives (maximum of 17 years) on a straight-line basis. Patent pending costs for patents that are not approved are charged to the statement of operations the year the patent is rejected.

(iii)

Other Intangible Assets

Other intangible assets that are acquired by the Company, which have definite useful lives, are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.

(iv)

Amortization

Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, other than goodwill, from the date that they are available for use. The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:

		Useful Life
		(in years)
Patents and trademarks		12-17
Customer lists		5

(n)

Recoverability of Long-lived Assets

In accordance with FASB ASC 360-10-35 “Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets”, long-lived assets to be held and used are analyzed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable or that the useful lives of those assets are no longer appropriate. The Company evaluates at each balance sheet date whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate possible impairment. As a result of this evaluation, the Company determined that the carrying amounts of the two patents and a trademark are not recoverable and therefore recorded an impairment charge. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 $466,476 (2014 $-) was recorded as impairment expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Company determines the existence of such impairment by measuring the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) and comparing such amount to the carrying amount of the assets. An impairment loss, if one exists, is then measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the discounted estimated future cash flows. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value of such assets less costs to sell. Asset impairment charges are recorded to reduce the carrying amount of the long-lived asset that will be sold or disposed of to their estimated fair values. Charges for the asset impairment reduce the carrying amount of the long-lived assets to their estimated salvage value in connection with the decision to dispose of such assets.

Investments

In accordance with FASB ASC 323, the Company recognizes investments in joint ventures based upon the Company’s ability to significantly influence the operational or financial policies of the joint venture. An objective judgment of the level of influence is made at the time of the investment based upon several factors including, but not limited to the following:

	a)	Representation on the Board of Directors

	b)	Participation in policy-making processes

	c)	Material intra-entity transactions

	d)	Interchange of management personnel

	e)	Technological dependencies

	f)	Extent of ownership and the ability to influence decision making based upon the makeup of other owners when the shareholder group is small.

The Company follows the equity method for valuating investments in joint ventures when the existence of significant influence over operational and financial policy has been established, as determined by management; otherwise, the Company will valuate these investments using the cost method.

Investments recorded using the cost method will be assessed for any decrease in value that has occurred that is other than temporary and the other than temporary decrease in value shall be recognized. As and when circumstances and facts change, the Company will evaluate the Company’s ability to significantly influence operational and financial policy to establish a basis for converting the investment accounted for using the cost method to the equity method of valuation.

On March 9, 2015, the Company contributed capital of $64,675 in Hainan Savy Akers Biosciences, Ltd., a company incorporated in the People’s Republic of China, resulting in a 19.9% ownership interest. The contribution was adjusted downward to $64,091 on April 8, 2015; the net effect of the currency conversion when the contribution was processed in Hainan. This is included in other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2015 and is accounted for using the cost method.

(p)

Revenue Recognition

In accordance with FASB ASC 605, the Company recognizes revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of a customer or distributor arrangement exists, (ii) a retailer, distributor or wholesaler receives the goods and acceptance occurs, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) the collectability of the revenue is reasonably assured. Subject to these criteria, the Company recognizes revenue from product sales when title passes to the customer based on shipping terms. The Company typically does not accept returns nor offer charge backs or rebates except for certain distributors. Revenue recorded is net of any discount, rebate or sales return. No accrual for estimated sales returns are necessary as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

The Company instituted a significant price increase for certain PIFA products effective May 1, 2015. In an effort to phase in the increase for existing customers, the Company is providing a rebate to its distributors for the price increase through December 31, 2015 for their existing customer base as of April 30, 2015. The Company has established an accrual of $70,282 and $362,150, which is a reduction of revenue, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 for this program. Accounts receivable will be reduced when the rebates are applied by the customer.

License fee revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the license agreement.

When the Company enters into arrangements that contain more than one deliverable, the Company allocates revenue to the separate elements under the arrangement based on their relative selling prices in accordance with FASB ASC 605-25.

(q)

Income Taxes

The Company follows FASB ASC 740 when accounting for income taxes, which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for temporary differences between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense or benefit is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

(r)

Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs

The Company charges actual shipping plus a handling fee to customers, which amounted to $10,998 and $43,776 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and $8,440 and $25,677 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. These fees are classified as part of product revenue in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Shipping and other related delivery costs, including those for incoming raw materials are classified as part of the cost of net revenue, which amounted to $15,590 and $82,997 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and $18,031 and $47,238 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Research and Development Costs

In accordance with FASB ASC 730, research and development costs are expensed when incurred.

(t)

Stock-based Payments

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of FASB ASC 718, “Compensation—Stock Compensation”, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values on the grant date. The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the shorter of the period over which services are to be received or the vesting period.

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation awards to non-employees in accordance with FASB ASC 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”. Under FASB ASC 505-50, the Company determines the fair value of the stock-based compensation awards granted as either the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based awards to non-employees on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the period which services are to be received. At the end of each financial reporting period, prior to vesting or prior to the completion of services, the fair value of equity based payments will be re-measured and the non-cash expense recognized during the period will be adjusted accordingly. Since the fair value of equity based payments granted to non-employees is subject to change in the future, the amount of the future expense will include fair value re-measurements until the equity based payments are fully vested or the service is completed.

(u)

Basic and Diluted Earnings per Share of Common Stock

Basic earnings per common share are based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares plus dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period.

The calculation of the basic and diluted loss per share for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was based on a loss attributable to common stockholders of $2,326,893 and $1,124,320.

The calculation of basic and diluted loss per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 was based on a loss of $5,734,921 and $2,230,708 attributable to common stockholders.

Potential common shares consist of options and warrants. Diluted net loss per common share was the same as basic loss per common share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 since the effect of options and warrants would be anti-dilutive due to the net loss attributable to the common stockholders for the periods. Instruments excluded from dilutive earnings per share, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive, were 175,000 units of options for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 1,989 units of warrants and 175,000 units of options for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Overview

Akers Bio develops, manufactures and supplies rapid, point-of-care screening and testing products designed to bring health-related information directly to the patient or clinician in a time and cost-efficient manner. Akers believes it has advanced the science of diagnostics through the development of several proprietary platform technologies that provide product development flexibility.

All of Akers’ rapid, single-use tests are performed in vitro (outside the body) and are designed to enhance patient well-being and reduce the cost of healthcare. The Company’s current product offerings and pipeline products focus on delivering diagnostic assistance in a wide variety of healthcare fields/specialties, including cardiology/emergency medicine, metabolism/nutrition, diabetes, oncology and infectious disease detection, as well as for on and off-the-job alcohol safety initiatives.

Akers believes that low-cost, single-use testing not only saves time and money, but allows for more frequent, near-patient testing which may save lives. We believe that our FDA-cleared rapid diagnostic tests help facilitate targeted diagnoses and real-time treatment. We also believe that our rapid diagnostic tests surpass most other current diagnostic products with their flexibility, speed, ease-of-use, readability, low cost and accuracy. In minutes, detection of disease states and medical conditions can be performed on single-patient specimens, without sacrificing accuracy.

We believe the use of rapid tests, which can be performed at the point-of-care when and where the patient is being consulted, can result in immediate diagnostic decisions and subsequent treatment regimens and is an important development in the practice of medicine. Point-of-care testing addresses today’s challenges in the healthcare industry, such as:

	●	cost pressures/efficiency of healthcare delivery;

	●	need for affordable mass screening tests for key infectious diseases, cardiac conditions, and metabolic markers;

	●	need for easy to use, accurate at-home tests for individuals to monitor their personal health and wellness; and

	●	public health needs in developing countries lacking basic health infrastructure.

Management’s Plans and Basis of Presentation

To date, the Company has in large part relied on equity financing to fund its operations, raising $13,101,336, net of expenses, in an initial public offering on the NASDAQ Capital Market in 2014. The Company has experienced recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. Management’s strategic plans include the following:

	●	continuing to advance the development and commercialization of the Company’s products, especially those that utilize MPC Biosensor, PIFA and seraSTAT technologies;

	●	continuing to strengthen and forge domestic and international relationships with well-established sales organizations with strong distribution channels in specific target markets for both our currently marketed and emerging products;

	●	establishing clinical protocols that support regulatory submissions and publication of data within peer-reviewed journals; and

	●	continuing to monitor and implement cost control initiatives to conserve cash.

- 28 -

Despite our plans, the Company expects to continue to incur losses from operations for the near-term and these losses could be significant for the following reasons:

	●	some of Akers’ distribution partnerships have been recently established or are in the process of being initiated and, therefore, consistent and historical ordering patterns have not been instituted;

	●	the Company continues to incur expenses related to the initial commercialization and marketing activities for METRON, VIVO, BreathScan Lync™, and product development (research, clinical trials, regulatory tasks) costs for its emerging products including Breath PulmoHealth, BreathScan® DKA and PIFA PLUSS® Infectious Disease point-of-care tests); and

	●	to expand the use of its clinical laboratory products, the Company may need to invest in additional marketing support programs to increase brand awareness.

At September 30, 2015, Akers had cash of $393,372, working capital of $7,001,044, stockholders’ equity of $9,798,229 and an accumulated deficit of $90,599,007. The Company believes that its current working capital position will be sufficient to meet its estimated cash needs for at least the next 24 months. The Company closely monitors its cash balances, cash needs and expense levels.

Summary of Statements of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2015 and 2014

Revenue

Akers’ revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2015 totaled $169,473, a 63% decrease from the three months ended September 30, 2014. The revenue decline is attributed to two factors; first, lower than usual distributor stock depletion of our PIFA Heparin/PF4 Rapid Assay products; and second, no licensing revenue was recorded during the three month period ended September 30, 2015 (2014: $93,333) following the cancellation of the License and Supply Agreement with ChubeWorkx Guernsey Limited (“ChubeWorkx”) in May, 2015.

The table below summarizes our revenue by product line for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 as well as the percentage of change year-over-year:

Product Lines	3 Months Ended September 30, 2015		3 Months Ended September 30, 2014		Percent Change
MicroParticle Catalyzed Biosensor (“MPC”)	$	23,953	$	38,201		(37	)%
Particle ImmunoFiltration Assay (“PIFA”)		116,783		309,459		(62	)%
Rapid Enzymatic Assay (“REA”)		-		-		-	%
Other		28,737		12,320		133	%
Product Revenue Total	$	169,473	$	359,980		(53	)%
License Fees		-		93,333		(100	)%
Total Revenue	$	169,473	$	453,313		(63	)%

- 29 -

The Company’s MPC product sales declined 37%. The decline is related to the irregular timing of orders from various distributors that purchase alcohol breathalyzers annually or semi-annually. The new distributor in the European Union (“EU”), which placed an initial order for 2,000,000 devices in June, 2015, did not request the release of any additional device shipments during the three month period ending September 30, 2015; however, the Company will release product as directed by the distributor over the next nine months. The Company launched its METRON disposable breath test for ketones on the Amazon Marketplace in the three month period ended September 30, 2015. While the METRON sales were small in its debut quarter, the Company believes that revenues will grow in the fourth quarter. The Company also expects to realize revenue from its BreathScan Lync health and wellness line in the fourth quarter.

Domestic sales of the Company’s PIFA Heparin/PF4 Rapid Assay products, part of the PIFA line, declined 62%, primarily reflecting lower than usual distributor stock depletion of our PIFA Heparin/PF4 Rapid Assay products during the third quarter. Demand for these products is returning to normal levels in the fourth quarter and our distributors are returning to their usual purchasing patterns. The Company has expanded its sales and marketing staff to cover most of the United States, adding technical sales account executives whose role is to significantly support the sales representatives of Akers’ US distribution partners, Cardinal Health (“Cardinal”), Fisher HealthCare (“Fisher”) and Typenex Medical (“Typenex”). We expect to see the revenue benefits from the expansion of the sales and marketing staff as the additional sales executives become more involved with the distributor representatives in their sales regions.

International sales of the Company’s PIFA Heparin/PF4 Rapid Assay products were still developing, but will be greatly enhanced with the recent approval of the product in China. This approval is expected to stimulate minimum purchase requirements with our distributor, Novotek, of approximately $1 million in 2015 and $6 million in 2016.

Other operating revenue increased due to a rise in miscellaneous component sales and shipping and handling fees.

Cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2015 increased by 10% to $177,952 (2014: $162,145). Direct cost of sales increased to 42% of product revenue while indirect cost of sales increased to 63% for the three months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to 19% and 26% respectively for the same period in 2014.

Direct cost of sales for the three month period ended September 30, 2015 were $71,722 (2014: 67,940). The increase for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was related to direct personnel costs.

Indirect cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2015 were $106,230 (2014: 94,205). The increase is attributed to an ongoing project to improve the management, reporting and turn-over rate of our production inventory. The increase was mitigated by a reduction in indirect personnel expenses in the three months ended September 30, 2015. In addition, the percentage increase is affected by the fixed cost nature of many of the components in this category.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2015, totaled $760,336, which was an 8% decrease as compared to $826,756 for the three months ended September 30, 2014.

The table below summarizes our general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 as well as the percentage of change year-over-year:

Description	3 Months Ended September 30, 2015		3 Months Ended September 30, 2014		Percent Change
Personnel Costs	$	194,740	$	186,667		4	%
Professional Service Costs		242,355		356,266		(32	)%
Stock Market & Investor Relations Costs		146,859		141,496		4	%
Other General and Administrative Costs		176,382		142,327		23	%
Total General and Administrative Expense	$	760,336	$	826,756		(8	)%

- 30 -

The decline in professional service costs for the three months ended September 30, 2015 is related to a decrease in legal fees ($146,640 (2014: $297,232)) but was offset by increases in personnel recruiting and general consulting services ($61,292 (2014: $-)).

The increase in other general and administrative costs for the three months ended September 30, 2015 is due to a significant increase in travel costs associated with the stimulation of sales and marketing initiatives globally, including the Hainan-Savy Akers Biosciences joint venture in Mainland China.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2015 totaled $725,832, which was a 102% increase as compared to $358,650 for the three months ended September 30, 2014.

The table below summarizes our sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 as well as the percentage of change year-over-year:

Description	3 Months Ended September 30, 2015		3 Months Ended September 30, 2014		Percent Change
Personnel Costs	$	371,133	$	110,496		236	%
Professional Service Costs		170,985		177,778		(4	)%
Royalties and Outside Commission Costs		113,308		30,180		275	%
Other Sales and Marketing Costs		70,406		40,196		75	%
Total Sales and Marketing Expenses	$	725,832	$	358,650		102	%

Personnel costs increased in the three months ended September 30, 2015 due to the expansion of the sales and marketing department from 3 employees at September 30, 2014 to 11 employees as of September 30, 2015.

Royalties and outside commission costs increased due to the accrual of a legal settlement liability of $75,000 (2014: $-)(See Note 18 - Contingencies).

Other sales and marketing costs increased primarily due to the increased travel by the expanded sales and marketing staff in support of our customer and distributor base.

- 31 -

Research and Development

Research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2015 totaled $319,646, which was a 74% increase as compared to $183,886 for the three months ended September 30, 2014.

The table below summarizes our research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 as well as the percentage of change year-over-year:

Description	3 Months Ended September 30, 2015		3 Months Ended September 30, 2014		Percent Change
Personnel Costs	$	156,569	$	127,602		23	%
Clinical Trial Costs		12,075		2,500		383	%
Professional Service Costs		106,763		25,967		311	%
Other Research and Development Costs		44,239		27,817		59	%
Total Research and Development Expenses	$	319,646	$	183,886		74	%

Personnel costs increased during the three months ended September 30, 2015. The increase is due to the addition of laboratory technicians and the promotion of a senior technician to provide technical product support to the Company’s sales associates, distributors and end customers.

Clinical trial costs, professional service costs and other research and development costs have increased in the three months ended September 30, 2015 due to the significant costs associated with preparing several key products for market. Major expenses include engineering fees related to the development of molds for new products, development of the BreathScan Lync and associated apps for tablets and smartphones, new packaging design, testing and clinical trials.

The following table illustrates research and development costs by project for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively:

Impairment of Non-Current Assets

The Company performed a routine analysis of its intangible assets and determined that two patents and a trademark acquired in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 are no longer contributing to the Company’s revenue flows and were therefore impaired for $466,476 (2014: $-) during the three months ended September 30, 2015.

Other Income and Expense

Other income increased for the three months ended September 30, 2015 to $18,519 from $18,447 for the same period in 2014. Other income and expenses primarily consist of interest and dividend earnings on the marketable securities and the note receivable totaling $20,478 (2014: $19,469) and a loss on foreign currency transactions of $2,001 (2014: $1,022).

Income Taxes

As of September 30, 2015, the Company does not believe any uncertain tax positions exist that would result in the Company having a liability to the taxing authorities. The Company’s policy is to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if and when required, as part of interest expense and general and administrative expense, respectively in the consolidated statement of operations.

Summary of Statements of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 and 2014:

Revenue

Akers’ revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 totaled $1,646,443, a 45% decrease from the same period in 2014. Importantly, sales of the flagship PIFA Heparin/PF4 Rapid Assay products increased by 9% over the nine month period ended September 30, 2014. The reduction in overall revenue resulted from there having been an initial stocking order for Tri-Cholesterol “Check” tests during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 which was not repeated in the nine months ended September 30, 2015; and from the impact on sales of BreathScan breathalyzer products following the French government’s postponement, indefinitely, of the fine that was to be imposed for drivers failing to possess breathalyzers in their vehicles.

The table below summarizes our revenue by product line for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 as well as the percentage of change year-over-year:

Product Lines	9 Months Ended September 30, 2015		9 Months Ended September 30, 2014		Percent Change
MicroParticle Catalyzed Biosensor (“MPC”)	$	233,758	$	878,659		(73	)%
Particle ImmunoFiltration Assay (“PIFA”)		1,015,742		931,647		9	%
Rapid Enzymatic Assay (“REA”)		-		864,000		(100	)%
Other		76,387		46,083		66	%
Product Revenue Total	$	1,325,887	$	2,720,389		(51	)%
License Fees		320,556		260,000		23	%
Total Revenue	$	1,646,443	$	2,980,389		(45	)%

- 33 -

The Company’s MPC product sales declined during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. This reflects that during the same period of 2014, the Company received its last order from ChubeWorkx for the Company’s alcohol breathalyzer product. The decline was partially offset by an initial stocking order from a new distributor in the European Union (“EU”) for alcohol breathalyzers. An initial order for 2,000,000 devices was received and units began to ship in June, 2015. Additional shipments will be released as directed by the distributor over the next nine months. The company launched its METRON disposable breath test for ketones on the Amazon Marketplace in the three month period ended September 30, 2015. While the METRON sales were small in its debut quarter, the Company believes that revenues will grow in the fourth quarter. The Company also expects to realize revenue from its BreathScan Lync health and wellness line in the fourth quarter.

Domestic sales of the Company’s PIFA Heparin/PF4 Rapid Assay products continue to grow. The Company has expanded its sales and marketing staff to cover most of the United States, adding technical sales account executives whose role is to significantly support the sales representatives of Akers’ US distribution partners, Cardinal Health (“Cardinal”), Fisher HealthCare (“Fisher”) and Typenex Medical (“Typenex”). We have begun to recognize the revenue benefits from the expansion of the sales and marketing staff and expect this to continue as the additional sales executives become more involved with the distributor representatives in their sales regions.

In fact, there are now over 200 US hospitals using our product, and we expect this number to a total close to 250 by the end of 2015. We are currently experiencing growth rates of approximately 20 hospitals per month, on average. Each hospital represents approximately $15,000 per annum in revenue net to Akers. On this basis, assuming these average metrics continue, by December 31, 2015, annualized PIFA Heparin/PF4 Rapid Assay product revenue for the US alone should be $3.75 million entering 2016.

There were no sales in the nine months ended September 30, 2015 for the Tri-Cholesterol “Check” tests, part of the REA line of products, which generated sales of $864,000 during the same period of 2014. The revenue generated in the 2014 sale of the Tri-Cholesterol “Check” tests was due to an initial stocking order from 36 Strategies General Trading, LLC to distribute the tests in Australia, Singapore, the United Arab Emirates and Oman (See Note 4 – Trade Receivables – Related Party). The Company continues to work with 36S to gain approval for the Company’s Tri-Cholesterol product in Australia.

Other operating revenue increased due to a rise in shipping and handling fees, a result of the mix of domestic and international shipments and an increase in sales of miscellaneous components.

The Company’s exclusive License and Supply Agreement with ChubeWorkx Guernsey Limited (“ChubeWorkx”) for the Company’s proprietary breathalyzer product was cancelled by both parties on May 7, 2015. As a result of this event, and per the terms of the original agreement, the Company recognized the remaining $166,667 of deferred revenue in the statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The Company is now able to solicit business outside the United States for its alcohol breathalyzer products and has begun to receive and ship orders.

Cost of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 decreased by 18% to $745,319 (2014: $907,876). Direct cost of sales increased to 26% of product revenue while indirect cost of sales increased to 30% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to 22% and 12% respectively for the same period in 2014. Overall, cost of sales, as a percentage of product revenue, was 56% and 34% for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.

- 34 -

Direct cost of sales for the nine month period ended September 30, 2015 showed an increase due to one significant event that occurred in the nine months ended September 30, 2014; during prior periods, the Company had written-off its REA product inventory while it worked to develop a market and identify a distributor for the product line. As a result of this action, no significant cost of sales was associated with the REA product revenue in the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

The increase in indirect cost of sales is attributed to an ongoing project to improve the management, reporting and turn-over rate of our production inventory which will be completed during the fourth quarter. The increase was mitigated by a reduction in indirect personnel expenses in the nine months ended September 30, 2015. In addition, the percentage increase is affected by the fixed cost nature of many of the components in this category.

Akers’ gross profit margin, as a percentage of revenue, decreased to 55% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to 70% in 2014 for the reasons described above.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, totaled $3,205,300, which was a 28% increase as compared to $2,497,485 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

The table below summarizes our general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 as well as the percentage of change year-over-year:

Description	9 Months Ended September 30, 2015		9 Months Ended September 30, 2014		Percent Change

Total General and Administrative Expenses	$	3,205,300	$	2,497,485		28	%

Professional services included significant increases in recruiting services and legal fees during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The increase in recruiting fees are related to the expansion of the sales and marketing staff while the legal fees are associated with various corporate and legal affairs. Offsetting the professional service expenses was the elimination of management fees paid to Nicolette Consulting Group for services that were incurred in the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

The Company recognized cost savings in all of its stock market and investor relations categories. These include consulting, investor relations, stock exchange fees and transfer agent fees.

The Company established an allowance for doubtful accounts of $864,000 for a receivable that was due June 30, 2015 after receiving communications from the customer that indicated a high level of risk of collectability in the nine months ended September 30, 2015. This allowance is reflected in the other general and administrative expenses.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 totaled $1,854,623, which was a 92% increase as compared to $966,357 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

The table below summarizes our sales and marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 as well as the percentage of change year-over-year:

- 35 -

Description	9 Months Ended September 30, 2015		9 Months Ended September 30, 2014		Percent Change
Personnel Costs	$	987,740	$	376,785		162	%

Total Sales and Marketing Expenses	$	1,854,623	$	966,357		92	%

Personnel costs increased in the nine months ended September 30, 2015 due to the expansion of the sales and marketing department from 3 employees at September 30, 2014 to 11 employees as of September 30, 2015.

The increase in professional service costs is for international sales consultants and domestic marketing consultants to assist in the development of new market opportunities and to increase our market penetration in our existing markets; and web designers to assist with the design and implementation of a new internet presence.

Royalties and outside commission costs increased due to the accrual of a legal settlement liability of $75,000 (2014: $-)(See Note 18 - Contingencies).

Research and Development

Research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 totaled $1,003,445, which was a 46% increase as compared to $686,376 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

The table below summarizes our research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 as well as the percentage of change year-over-year:

Other Research and Development Costs		126,608		81,975		54	%
Total Research and Development Expenses	$	1,003,445	$	686,376		46	%

Personnel costs decreased during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company issued stock options to key employees, where during the same period of 2015, no costs were incurred which was offset by increased due to the addition of laboratory technicians and the promotion of a senior technician to provide technical product support of the Company’s sales associates, distributors and end customers.

- 36 -

Clinical trial costs, professional service costs and other research and development costs have increased in the nine months ended September 30, 2015 due to the significant costs associated with preparing several key products for market. Major expenses include engineering fees related to the development of molds for new products, development of the BreathScan Lync and associated apps for tablets and smartphones, new packaging design, testing and clinical trials.

The following table illustrates research and development costs by project for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Impairment of Non-Current Assets

Other Income and Expense

Other income increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 to $87,728 from $56,719 for the same period in 2014. The increase is the result of interest and dividend earnings on the marketable securities and the note receivable totaling $89,647 (2014: $49,176) and was partially offset by a loss on foreign currency transactions of $7,971 (2014: gain of $2,874).

Income Taxes

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company generated a net loss attributable to shareholders of $5,734,921 and $2,230,708, respectively. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $90,599,007 and $84,864,086 and had cash totaling $393,272 and $455,841, respectively.

Currently, our primary focus is to expand the domestic and international distribution of our PIFA Heparin/PF4 rapid assays. The Company’s secondary focus is preparing for the launch of our health and wellness product line linked to smartphones and tablets. The Company continues commercialization tasks for METRON as well as development activities for its PIFA PLUSS® Infectious Disease single-use assays, BreathScan® DKA, and Breath PulmoHealth products, including advancement of the steps required for FDA clearance or CE marking in the EU where necessary.

We expect to continue to incur losses from operations for the near-term and these losses could be significant as we incur product development, clinical and regulatory activities, contract consulting and other product development and commercialization related expenses. We believe that our current working capital position will be sufficient to meet our estimated cash needs for at least 24 months. We are closely monitoring our cash balances, cash needs and expense levels. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result in the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

We expect that our primary expenditures will be to continue development of our health and wellness line, PIFA PLUSS® Infectious Disease single-use assays, BreathScan® DKA and Breath PulmoHealth products, enrolling patients in clinical trials to support performance claims, generating studies in peer-reviewed journals to support product marketing, and provide data for the FDA 510(k) clearance/CE certifications processes when required. We will also continue to support commercialization and marketing activities of commercialized products (PIFA Heparin/PF4 rapid assays, PIFA PLUSS® PF4, breath alcohol detectors and METRON in the US and internationally. Based upon our experience, clinical trial and related regulatory expenses can be significant costs. Steps to achieve commercialization of emerging products will be an ongoing and evolving process with expected improvements and possible subsequent generations being evaluated for commercialized and emerging tests. Should we be unable to achieve FDA clearance for products that require such regulatory “approval”, develop performance characteristics for rapid tests that satisfy market needs, or generate sufficient revenue from commercialized products, we would need to rely on other business or product opportunities to generate revenue and costs that we have incurred for the patents may be deemed impaired.

Capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 were $60,254 (2014: $24,987). Capital expenditures, primarily for production, laboratory and facility improvement costs for the year ending December 31, 2015 are expected to be approximately $250,000. As per the Company’s lease agreement, the owner of the facility will be handling the majority of facility upgrades, and we anticipate financing any production and laboratory capital expenditures through working capital.

The Company invested $64,091 for a 19.9% ownership position in a joint venture with Hainan Savy Investment Management, Ltd and Mr. Thomas Knox, the Company’s Non-executive Co-chairman, to research, develop, produce and sell Akers’ rapid diagnostic screening and testing products in China. The new entity, incorporated in the People’s Republic of China, operates as Hainan Savy Akers Biosciences, Ltd.

The Company may enter into generally short-term consulting and development agreements primarily for testing services and in connection with clinical trials conducted as part of the Company’s development process which may include activities related to the development of technical files for FDA 510(k) clearance submissions. Such commitments at any point in time may be significant but the agreements typically contain cancellation provisions.

- 38 -

We lease our manufacturing facility which also contains our administrative offices. Our current lease was executed January 1, 2013 and is effective through December 31, 2019. The Company has leased this property from the current owner since 1997.

Due to recent market events that have adversely affected all industries and the economy as a whole, management has placed increased emphasis on monitoring the risks associated with the current environment, particularly the recoverability of current assets, the fair value of assets, and the Company’s liquidity. At this point in time, there has not been a material impact on the Company’s assets and liquidity. Management will continue to monitor the risks associated with the current environment and their impact on the Company’s results.

The Company’s net cash provided by investing and financing activities totaled $3,937,978 during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Cash was consumed by capital expenditures, the investment in Hainan Savy Akers Biosciences, Ltd. and the purchase of marketable securities of $176,664. Proceeds from the sale of marketable securities and a policy renewal incentive from an insurer contributed cash of $4,114,642 for the period ended September 30, 2015.

Critical Accounting Policies

We intend to utilize the extended transition period provided in Securities Act Section 7(a)(2)(B) as allowed by Section 107(b)(1) of the JOBS Act for the adoption of new or revised accounting standards as applicable to emerging growth companies. Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies may delay adopting new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with these new or revised accounting standards. Since we will not be required to comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for other public companies, our financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of companies that comply with public company effective dates. If we were to elect to comply with these public company effective dates, such election would be irrevocable pursuant to Section 107 of the JOBS Act.

- 39 -

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results inevitably will differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements include estimates associated with revenue recognition, impairment analysis of intangibles and stock-based compensation.

The Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows are impacted by the accounting policies the Company has adopted. In order to get a full understanding of the Company’s financial statements, one must have a clear understanding of the accounting policies employed. A summary of the Company’s critical accounting policies follows:

Trade Receivables, Trade Receivables – Related Party and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The carrying amounts of current trade receivables is stated at cost, net of allowance for doubtful accounts and approximate their fair value given their short term nature.

Fair Value Measurement – Marketable Securities

	Level 1	Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the Ability to access.

	Level 2	Inputs to the valuation methodology include

	●	quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

	●	quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;

	●	inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability;

	●	inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

- 40 -

If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3

Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

Intangible Assets

The Company has developed or acquired several diagnostic tests that can detect the presence of various substances in a person’s breath, blood, urine and saliva. Propriety protection for the Company’s products, technology and process is important to its competitive position. As of September 30, 2015, the Company has nine patents from the United States Patent Office in effect (7,896,167, 8,097,171, 7,285,246, 7,837,936, 8,003,061, 8,425,859, 8,871,521, 5,827,749 and 8,808,639). Other patents are in effect in Australia through the Design Registry (348,310, 348,311 and 348,312), the Community Trade Mark in the European Union ((OHIM) 002216895-0001, 002216895-0002 and 002216895-0003) and in Japan (4,885,134 and 4,931,821). Patents are in the national phase of prosecution in many Patent Cooperation Treaty participating countries. Additional proprietary technology consists of numerous different inventions. The Company intends to file additional patent applications, where appropriate, relating to new products, technologies and their use in the US, European and Asian markets. Management intends to protect all other intellectual property (e.g. copyrights, trademarks and trade secrets) using all legal remedies available to the Company.

Costs associated with applying for patents are capitalized as patent costs. Once the patents are approved, the respective costs are amortized over a period of twelve to seventeen years on a straight-line basis. Patent pending costs for patents that are not approved are charged to operations the year the patent is rejected.

In addition, patents may be purchased from third parties. The costs of acquiring the patent are capitalized as patent costs if it represents a future economic benefit to the Company. Once a patent is acquired it is amortized over its remaining life. The Company amortizes these costs over the shorter of the legal life of the patent or its estimated economic life using the straight-line method. The Company tests intangible assets with finite lives upon significant changes in the Company’s business environment.

As a result of this evaluation, the Company determined that two patents and a trademark should be impaired. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 $466,476 (2014 $-) was recorded as impairment expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Long-Lived Assets

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment. Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and are recognized net within “other income” in profit or loss.

Investments

	a)	Representation on the Board of Directors

	b)	Participation in policy-making processes

	c)	Material intra-entity transactions

	d)	Interchange of management personnel

	e)	Technological dependencies

	f)	Extent of ownership and the ability to influence decision making based upon the makeup of other owners when the shareholder group is small.

Revenue Recognition

License fee revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the license agreement.

Stock-based Compensation

FASB ASC 718, Share-Based Payment, defines the fair-value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation plans and transactions used by the Company to account for its issuances of equity instruments to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value as well as to acquire goods or services from non-employees. Transactions in which the Company issues stock-based compensation to employees, directors and consultants and for goods or services received from non-employees are accounted for based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. The Company utilizes pricing models in determining the fair values of options and warrants issued as stock-based compensation. The Black-Scholes model is utilized to calculate the fair value of equity instruments.

- 42 -

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has evaluated all recently issued and adopted accounting pronouncements and believes such pronouncements do not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Interest Rates

The primary objective for our investment activities is to preserve principal while maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. This is accomplished by investing excess cash in highly liquid debt and equity investments of highly rated entities which are classified as trading securities.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no significant known off balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We do not hold any derivative instruments and do not engage in any hedging activities.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

Pursuant to Rule 13a- 15(b) under the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Principal Executive Officer (“PEO”) and Principal Financial Officer (“PFO”), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

From time to time, we are a party to litigation and subject to claims incident to the ordinary course of business. Future litigation may be necessary to defend ourselves and our customers by determining the scope, enforceability and validity of third party proprietary rights or to establish our proprietary rights.

- 43 -

On October 15, 2014 a complaint was filed by Akers Biosciences, Inc. in federal district court (Southern District of New York) seeking a declaratory judgment of non-breach of a contract with Mr. Lawrence Martin. This complaint was filed in response to various threats of litigation proffered by Mr. Martin’s counsel in connection with the alleged breach of a purchase agreement entered into by the Company and Mr. Martin on January 23, 2007 (“2007 Purchase Agreement”), as amended on April 18, 2012. Prior to filing the complaint the Company, in good faith, attempted to ascertain the basis for the breach allegations with an eye to resolve any possible claims outside of court but such discussions ultimately were rendered fruitless. Responsive to the Company’s filing, Mr. Martin has filed a complimentary suit in the sixth judicial circuit court (Pinellas County, FL) alleging, among other counts, breach of the 2007 Purchase Agreement for failure to pay certain royalties allegedly owed to Mr. Martin. The Company successfully removed the Florida state court case filed by Mr. Martin to the Federal District Court, Middle District, Florida. On March 10, 2015, the Federal Southern District of New York denied Mr. Martin’s request to transfer venue to Florida and retained jurisdiction. In light of this decision, the Company and Mr. Martin have entered into a Stipulation that Mr. Martin’s Florida Action will be dismissed without prejudice. On October 2, 2015, the Company settled the lawsuit with Mr. Martin. Subject to the exclusions allowed under the Settlement Agreement regarding confidentiality, the Company shall pay a cash amount of $75,000 paid over 12 months to Mr. Martin as well as assign back U.S. patents 7,285,246 and 7,837,936 on or before January 1, 2016. Additionally, the existing royalty obligations under the Purchase Agreement of 2007, as amended on April 18, 2012, of the Company to Mr. Martin shall be in force until January 1, 2016 when the 2007 Purchase Agreement, as amended on April 18, 2012, shall be terminated. Additionally, the parties provided to each other full releases from all claims against each other starting from the beginning of time until the date of the October 2 Settlement Agreement. A $75,000 accrual was recorded as of September 30, 2015 and is included in sales and marketing expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income.

With the exception of the foregoing, we are not currently involved in any litigation that we believe could have a materially adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our Company, threatened against or affecting our Company or our common stock, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

We believe there are no changes that constitute material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 23, 2015.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

There were no unregistered sales of the Company’s equity securities during the quarter ended September 30, 2015, other than those previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

There has been no default in the payment of principal, interest, sinking or purchase fund installment, or any other material default, with respect to any indebtedness of the Company.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.

Not applicable.

Item 5. Other Information.

There is no other information required to be disclosed under this item which was not previously disclosed.
