Note 1 - Description of Business, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Cryo-Cell International, Inc. (“the Company” or “Cryo-Cell”) was incorporated in Delaware on September 11, 1989 and is headquartered in Oldsmar, Florida. The Company is organized in three reportable segments, cellular processing and cryogenic cellular storage, with a current focus on the collection and preservation of umbilical cord blood stem cells for family use, the manufacture of PrepaCyte CB units, the processing technology used to process umbilical cord blood stem cells and cellular processing and cryogenic storage of umbilical cord blood stem cells for public use. Revenues recognized for the cellular processing and cryogenic cellular storage represent sales of the umbilical cord blood stem cells program to customers and income from licensees selling the umbilical cord blood stem cells program to customers outside the United States. Revenues recognized for the manufacture of PrepaCyte CB units represent sales of the PrepaCyte CB units to customers. Revenue recognized for the cryogenic storage of umbilical cord blood stem cells for public use is generated from the sale of the cord blood units to the National Marrow Donor Program (“NMDP”), which distributes the cord blood units to transplant centers located in the United States and around the world. The Company’s headquarters facility in Oldsmar, Florida handles all aspects of its U.S.-based business operations including the processing and storage of specimens, including specimens obtained from certain of its licensees’ customers. The specimens are stored in commercially available cryogenic storage equipment.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements including the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of August 31, 2020 and November 30, 2019, the related Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, Cash Flows for the nine months ended August 31, 2020 and 2019 and Stockholders’ Deficit for the three and nine months ended August 21, 2020 and 2019 have been prepared by Cryo-Cell International, Inc. and its subsidiaries pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial reporting. Certain financial information and note disclosures, which are normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's November 30, 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and changes in cash flows for all periods presented have been made. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for any interim period in the future or the entire year ending November 30, 2020.

Effective December 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), using the modified retrospective transition method. ASC 606 applies to all contracts with customers, except for contracts that are within the scope of other standards, such as leases, insurance, collaboration arrangements and financial instruments. ASC 606 also impacts certain other areas, such as the accounting for costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASC 606 also requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.

Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when, or as, obligations under the terms of a contract are satisfied, which occurs when control of the promised services are transferred to the customers. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring services to a customer ("transaction price").

At contract inception, if the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company evaluates its contracts with customers using the five-step model: (1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to separate performance obligations; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company evaluates its contracts for legal enforceability at contract inception and subsequently throughout the Company’s relationship with its customers. If legal enforceability with regards to the rights and obligations exist for both the Company and the customer, then the Company has an enforceable contract and revenue recognition is permitted subject to the satisfaction of the other criteria. If, at the outset of an arrangement, the Company determines that a contract with enforceable rights and obligations does not exist, revenues are deferred until all criteria for an enforceable contract are met. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that collection of the consideration that the Company is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services being transferred to the customer, will occur.

Contract modifications exist when the modification either creates new or changes in the existing enforceable rights and obligations. The Company’s contracts are occasionally modified to account for changes in contract terms and conditions, which the Company refers to as an upgrade or downgrade. An upgrade occurs when a customer wants to pay for additional years of storage. A downgrade occurs when a customer originally entered into a long-term contract (such as twenty-one year or lifetime plan) but would like to change the term to a one-year contract. Upgrade modifications qualify for treatment as a separate contract as the additional services are distinct and the increase in contract price reflects the Company’s stand-alone selling price for the additional services and will be accounted for on a prospective basis. Downgrade modifications do not qualify for treatment as a separate contract as there is no increase in price over the original contract, thus failing the separate contract criteria. As such, the Company separately considers downgrade modifications to determine if these should be accounted for as a termination of the existing contract and creation of a new contract (prospective method) or as part of the existing contract (cumulative catch-up adjustment). ASC 606 requires that an entity account for the contract modification as if it were a termination of the existing contract, and the creation of a new contract, if the remaining goods or services are distinct from the goods or services transferred on or before the date of the contract modification. As the services after the modification were previously determined to be distinct, the Company concluded that downgrade modifications qualify under this method and will be accounted for on a prospective basis. Although contract modifications do occur, they are infrequent.

At contract inception, the Company assesses the goods and services promised in the contracts with customers and identifies a performance obligation for each promise to transfer to the customer a good or service (or bundle of goods or services) that is distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. To identify the performance obligations, the Company considers all of the goods or services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices. The Company determined that the following distinct goods and services represent separate performance obligations involving the sale of its umbilical cord blood product:

Processing and storage fees include the Company providing umbilical cord blood and tissue cellular processing and cryogenic cellular storage for private use. Revenues recognized for the cellular processing and cryogenic cellular storage represent sales of the umbilical cord blood stem cells program to customers and income from licensees who are selling the umbilical cord blood stem cells program to customers outside the United States.

The Company recognizes revenue from processing fees at the point in time of the successful completion of processing and recognizes storage fees over time, which is ratably over the contractual storage period as well as other income from royalties paid by licensees related to long-term storage contracts which the Company has under license agreements. Contracted storage periods are annual, twenty-one years and life-time. The life-time storage plan is based on a life expectancy of 81 years, which is the current estimate by the Center for Disease Control for United States women’s life expectancy and concluded that additional data analysis would result in an immaterial difference in revenue. Deferred revenue on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets includes the portion of the annual, the twenty-one-year and the life-time storage fees that are being recognized over the contractual storage period as well as royalties received from foreign licensees relating to long-term storage contracts for which the Company has future obligations under the license agreement. The Company classifies deferred revenue as current if the Company expects to recognize the related revenue over the next 12 months from the balance sheet date.

When determining the transaction price of a contract, an adjustment is made if payment from a customer occurs either significantly before or significantly after performance, resulting in a significant financing component. For all plans being annual, twenty-one years and life-time, the storage fee is paid at the beginning of the storage period (prepaid plans). Alternatively, the Company offers payment plans (including a stated service fee) for customers to pay over time for a period of one to twenty-four plus months. The one-time plan includes the collection kit, processing and testing, return medical courier service and twenty-one years of pre-paid storage fees. The life-time plan includes the collection kit, processing and testing, return medical courier service and pre-paid storage fees for the life of the customer. The Company concluded that a significant financing component is not present within either the prepaid or overtime payment plans. The Company has determined that the twenty-one year and life-time prepayment options do not include a significant financing component as the payment terms were structured primarily for reasons other than the provision of financing and to maximize profitability.

The Company has determined that the majority of plans that are paid over time are paid in less than a year. When considered over a twenty-four-month payment plan, the difference between the cash selling price and the consideration paid is nominal. As such, the Company believes that its payment plans do not include significant financing components as they are not significant in the aggregate when considered in the context of all contracts entered into nor significant at the individual contract level.

The Company elected to apply the practical expedient where the Company does not need to assess whether a significant financing component exists if the period between when it performs its obligations under the contract and when the customer pays is one year or less.

As of August 31, 2020, the total aggregate transaction price allocated to the unsatisfied performance obligations was recorded as deferred revenue amounting to $35,308,468, which will be recognized ratably on a straight-line basis over the contractual period of which $9,107,027, will be recognized over the next twelve months.

In December 2005, the Company began providing its customers that enrolled after December 2005 a payment warranty under which the Company agrees to pay $50,000 to its client if the umbilical cord blood product retrieved is used for a stem cell transplant for the donor or an immediate family member and fails to engraft, subject to various restrictions. Effective February 1, 2012, the Company increased the $50,000 payment warranty to a $75,000 payment warranty to all of its new clients. Effective June 1, 2017, the Company increased the payment warranty to $100,000 to all new clients who choose the premium processing method, PrepaCyte CB. Additionally, under the Cryo-Cell Cares^TM program, the Company will pay $10,000 to the client to offset personal expenses if the umbilical cord blood product is used for bone marrow reconstitution in a myeloablative transplant procedure. The product warranty and the Cryo-Cell Cares program are available to clients who enroll under this structure for as long as the specimen is stored with the Company. In the processing and storage agreements, the Company provides limited rights which are offered to customers automatically upon contract execution. The Company has determined that the payment warranty represents variable consideration payable to the customer.

Based on the Company’s historical experience to date, the Company has determined the payment warranty to be fully constrained under the most likely amount method. Consequently, the transaction price does not currently reflect any expectation of service level credits. At the end of each reporting period, the Company will update the estimated transaction price related to the payment warranty including updating its assessment of whether an estimate of variable consideration is constrained to represent faithfully the circumstances present at the end of the reporting period and the changes in circumstances during the reporting period.

As the Company’s processing and storage agreements contain multiple performance obligations, ASC 606 requires an allocation of the transaction price based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised services underlying each performance obligation. The Company has selected an adjusted market assessment approach to estimate the stand-alone selling prices of the processing services and storage services and concluded that the published list price is the price that a customer in that market would be willing to pay for those goods or services. The Company also considered the fact that all customers are charged the list prices current at the time of their enrollment where the Company has separately stated list prices for processing and storage.

Prior to the adoption of ASC 606, the Company expensed in the period, all commissions paid to its internal and external sales representatives the Company employs and to its customers for generating new contracts. With the adoption of ASC 606 as of December 1, 2018, the Company capitalizes commissions that are incremental in obtaining customer contracts and the costs incurred to fulfill a customer contract if those costs are not within the scope of another topic within the accounting literature and meet the specified criteria. These costs are deferred in other current or long-term assets and are expensed to selling, general and administrative expenses as the Company satisfies the performance obligations by transferring the service to the customer. These assets will be periodically assessed for impairment. As a practical expedient, the Company elected to recognize the incremental costs of obtaining its annual contracts as an expense when incurred, as the amortization period of the asset recognized would have been one year.

The Company has determined that payments under the Company’s refer-a-friend program (“RAF program”) are incremental costs of obtaining a contract as they provide an incentive for existing customers to refer new customers to the Company and is referred to as commission. The amount paid under the RAF program (either through issuance of credits to customers or check payments) which exceeds the typical commission payment to a sales representative is recorded as a reduction to revenue under ASC 606. During the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020, the Company recorded $14,261 and $37,405, respectively, in commission payments to customers under the RAF program as a reduction to revenue. During the three and nine months ended August 31, 2019, the Company recorded $10,747 and $25,216, respectively, in commission payments to customers under the RAF program as a reduction to revenue. As of December 1, 2018, the Company capitalized $329,231 in incremental contract acquisition costs related to contracts that were not completed, net of the cumulative amortization expense of $66,533 through the adoption date. The Company did not record any impairment losses in relation to costs capitalized. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020, the Company capitalized additional contract acquisition costs of $22,351 and $68,152, respectively, net of amortization. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2019, the Company capitalized additional contract acquisition costs of $23,180 and $67,668, respectively, net of amortization expense.

The Company sells and provides units not likely to be of therapeutic use for research to qualified organizations and companies operating under Institutional Review Board approval. Control is transferred at the point in time when the shipment has occurred, at which time, the Company records revenue.

Licensee and royalty income consist of royalty income earned on the processing and storage of cord blood stem cell specimens by an affiliate where the Company has a License and Royalty Agreement. The Company records revenue from processing and storage of specimens and pursuant to agreements with licensees. The Company records the royalty revenue in same period that the related processing and storage is being completed by the affiliate.

The Company records revenue from the sale of the PrepaCyte CB product line upon shipment of the product to the Company’s customers.

The Company elected to apply the practical expedient to account for shipping and handling activities performed after the control of a good has been transferred to the customer as a fulfillment cost. Shipping and handling costs that the Company incurs are therefore expensed and included in cost of sales.

The adoption of ASC 606 did not have an impact on the timing of revenue recognition for any of the Company’s revenue streams.

The revenue as reflected in the statements of comprehensive income is disaggregated by products and services.

The following table provides information about assets and liabilities from contracts with customers:

The Company, in general, requires the customer to pay for processing and storage services at the time of processing. Contract assets include deferred contract acquisition costs, which will be amortized along with the associated revenue. Contract liabilities include payments received in advance of performance under the contract and are realized with the associated revenue recognized under the contract. Accounts receivable consists of amounts due from clients that have enrolled and processed in the umbilical cord blood stem cell processing and storage programs related to renewals of annual plans and amounts due from license affiliates, and sublicensee territories. The Company did not have asset impairment charges related to contract assets in the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020.

The following table presents changes in the Company’s contract assets and liabilities during the nine months ended August 31, 2020:

The following table presents changes in the Company’s contract assets and liabilities during the nine months ended August 31, 2019:

Accounts receivable consist of uncollateralized amounts due from clients that have enrolled and processed in the umbilical cord blood stem cell processing and storage programs and amounts due from license affiliates, and sublicensee territories. Accounts receivable are due within 30 days and are stated at amounts net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. The Company determines its allowance by considering the length of time accounts receivable are past due, the Company’s previous loss history, and the client’s current ability to pay its obligations. Therefore, if the financial condition of the Company’s clients were to deteriorate beyond the estimates, the Company may have to increase the allowance for doubtful accounts which could have a negative impact on earnings. The Company writes-off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts.

As part of the Cord:Use Purchase Agreement, (see Note 2), the Company has an agreement with Duke University (“Duke”) expiring on January 31, 2025 for Duke to receive, process, and store cord blood units for the Public Cord Blood Bank (“Duke Services”). As of August 31, 2020, the Company had approximately 6,000 cord blood units in inventory. These units are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Costs include the cost of collecting, transporting, processing and storing the unit. Costs charged by Duke for their Duke Services are based on a monthly fixed fee for processing and storing 12 blood units per month. The Company computes the cost per unit for these Duke Services and capitalizes the unit cost on all blood units shipped and stored in a year at Duke. If the Company ships and stores less than 144 blood units with Duke in a one-year period, a portion of these fixed costs are expensed and included in facility operating costs. Certain costs of collection incurred, such as the cost of collection staff and transportation costs incurred to ship Public Bank units from hospitals to the stem cell laboratory are allocated to banked units based on an average cost method. The change in the number of expected units to be sold could have a significant impact on the estimated net realizable value of banked units which could have a material effect on the value of the inventory. Costs incurred related to cord blood units that cannot be sold are expensed in the period incurred and are included in facility operating costs in the accompanying statements of operations. The Company records a reserve against inventory for units which have been processed and frozen but may not ultimately become distributable (see Note 4). Due to changes in sales trends and estimated recoverability of cost capitalized into inventory, an impairment charge of $2,332,763 was recognized during the three and nine months ended August 31, 2019 to reduce inventory from cost to net realizable value and is included in the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to be recovered or settled. The Company records a valuation allowance when it is “more likely than not” that all of the future income tax benefits will not be realized. When the Company changes its determination as to the amount of deferred income tax assets that can be realized, the valuation allowance is adjusted with a corresponding impact to income tax expense in the period in which such determination is made. The ultimate realization of the Company’s deferred income tax assets depends upon generating sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of the tax attributes. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the Company projects future levels of taxable income. This assessment requires significant judgment. The Company examines the evidence related to the recent history of losses, the economic conditions in which the Company operates and forecasts and projections to make that determination.

The Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. Increases or decreases to the unrecognized tax benefits could result from management’s belief that a position can or cannot be sustained upon examination based on subsequent information or potential lapse of the applicable statute of limitation for certain tax positions.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, the Company had no provisions for interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

The Company evaluates the realizability of its long-lived assets, which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment, such as reductions in demand or when significant economic slowdowns are present. Reviews are performed to determine whether the carrying value of an asset is impaired, based on comparisons to undiscounted expected future cash flows. If this comparison indicates that there is impairment and carrying value is in excess of fair value, the impaired asset is written down to fair value, which is typically calculated using: (i) quoted market prices or (ii) discounted expected future cash flows utilizing a discount rate. The Company did not note any impairment for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020 and 2019.

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of the assets acquired from Cord:Use (see Note 2) over the estimated fair value of the net tangible, intangible and identifiable assets acquired. The annual assessment of the reporting unit is performed as of September 1st, and an assessment is performed at other times if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the asset below its carrying value. The Company first performs a qualitative assessment to test goodwill for impairment and concludes if it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If the qualitative assessment concludes that it is not more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying value, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. If the qualitative assessment concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value, then the two-step goodwill impairment test is required. Step one of the impairment assessment compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value and if the fair value exceeds its carrying value, goodwill is not impaired. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, the implied fair value of goodwill is compared to the carrying value of goodwill. If the implied fair value exceeds the carrying value then goodwill is not impaired; otherwise, an impairment loss would be recorded by the amount the carrying value exceeds the implied fair value.

Effective December 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), using the modified retrospective approach and utilizing the effective date as its date of initial application. As a result, prior periods are presented in accordance with the previous guidance in ASC 840, Leases (“ASC 840”). The Company has elected to apply the ‘package of practical expedients’ which allows the Company to not reassess i) whether existing or expired arrangements contain a lease, ii) the lease classification of existing or expired leases, or iii) whether previous initial direct costs would qualify for capitalization under the new lease standard.

At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present in the arrangement. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet as a right-of-use (ROU) assets and as short-term and long-term lease liabilities, as applicable. The Company does not have any financing leases.

Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are initially recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected remaining lease term. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As a result, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate to discount lease payments, which reflects the fixed rate at which the Company believes it could borrow on a collateralized basis the amount of the lease payments in the same currency, for a similar term, in a similar economic environment.

The Company has elected not to recognize leases with an original term of one year or less on the balance sheet. The Company typically only includes an initial lease term in its assessment of a lease arrangement. Options to renew a lease are not included in the Company’s assessment unless there is reasonable certainty that the Company will renew.

As of August 31, 2020, the Company has two stock-based compensation plans, which are described in Note 8 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements. The Company’s stock-based employee compensation plan became effective December 1, 2011 as approved by the Board of Directors and approved by the stockholders at the 2012 Annual Meeting. The Company recognized approximately $451,000 and $240,000 for the nine months ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019 respectively, of stock compensation expense. The Company recognized approximately $162,000 and $14,000 for the three months ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, respectively, of stock compensation expense.

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation based on the fair value of the related awards. Under the fair value recognition guidance of stock-based compensation accounting rules, stock-based compensation expense is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period of the award. The fair value of service-based vesting condition and performance-based vesting condition stock option awards is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model. For stock option awards with only service-based vesting conditions and graded vesting features, the Company recognizes stock compensation expense based on the graded-vesting method. To value awards with market-based vesting conditions the Company uses a binomial valuation model. The Company recognizes compensation cost for awards with market-based vesting conditions on a graded-vesting basis over the derived service period calculated by the binomial valuation model. The use of these valuation models involves assumptions that are judgmental and highly sensitive in the determination of compensation expense and include the expected life of the option, stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate, dividend yield, exercise price, and forfeiture rate. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of valuation and reduce expense ratably over the vesting period.

The estimation of stock awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment and to the extent that actual results or updated estimates differ from current estimates, such amounts will be recorded as a cumulative adjustment in the period they become known. The Company considered many factors when estimating forfeitures, including the recipient groups and historical experience. Actual results and future changes in estimates may differ substantially from current estimates.

The Company issues performance-based equity awards which vest upon the achievement of certain financial performance goals, including revenue and income targets. Determining the appropriate amount to expense based on the anticipated achievement of the stated goals requires judgment, including forecasting future financial results. The estimate of the timing of the expense recognition is revised periodically based on the probability of achieving the required performance targets and adjustments are made as appropriate. The cumulative impact of any revision is reflected in the period of the change. If the financial performance goals are not met, the award does not vest, so no compensation cost is recognized and any previously stock-recognized stock-based compensation expense is reversed.

The Company issues equity awards with market-based vesting conditions which vest upon the achievement of certain stock price targets. If the awards are forfeited prior to the completion of the derived service period, any recognized compensation is reversed. If the awards are forfeited after the completion of the derived service period, the compensation cost is not reversed, even if the awards never vest.

Management uses a fair value hierarchy, which gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets. The fair value of financial instruments is estimated based on market trading information, where available. Absent published market values for an instrument or other assets, management uses observable market data to arrive at its estimates of fair value. Management believes that the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company believes that the fair value of its Revenue Sharing Agreements (”RSA”) liability recorded on the balance sheet is between the recorded book value and up to the Company’s previous settlement experience, due to the various terms and conditions associated with each RSA.

The Company uses an accounting standard that defines fair value as an exit price, representing 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. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the standard establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

The following table summarizes the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of August 31, 2020 and November 30, 2019, respectively, segregated among the appropriate levels within the fair value hierarchy:

The following is a description of the valuation techniques used for these items, as well as the general classification of such items pursuant to the fair value hierarchy:

Marketable securities - Effective December 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2016-01, which requires equity securities with readily determinable fair values to be measured at fair value with the changes in fair value recognized through net income. Such securities are no longer reflected as trading or available-for-sale but are noted as marketable securities. As a result of this accounting change, in the first quarter of 2019, the Company recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings of approximately $341,000 in the consolidated statements of stockholders’ deficit as of the date of adoption. Prior periods have not been restated for the impact of this accounting change. There was approximately $35,000 and ($1,000) in holding gain (losses), respectively, recorded in other income and expense on the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2019, respectively. There was approximately ($135,000) and ($133,000) in holding loss, respectively, recorded in other income and expense on the accompanying consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020, respectively. Included in the holding loss for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020, the Company recorded an approximately ($175,000) loss when it received a cash liquidating distribution of an investment.

Contingent consideration - The contingent consideration is the earnout that Cord:Use is entitled to from the Company’s sale of the public cord blood inventory from and after closing (See Note 2). The estimated fair value of the contingent earnout was determined using a Monte Carlo analysis examining the frequency and mean value of the resulting earnout payments. The resulting value captures the risk associated with the form of the payout structure. The risk-neutral method is applied, resulting in a value that captures the risk associated with the form of the payout structure and the projection risk. The carrying amount of the liability may fluctuate significantly and actual amounts paid may be materially different from the estimated value of the liability.

In December 2005, the Company began providing its customers that enrolled after December 2005 a payment warranty under which the Company agrees to pay $50,000 to its client if the umbilical cord blood product retrieved is used for a stem cell transplant for the donor or an immediate family member and fails to engraft, subject to various restrictions. Effective February 1, 2012, the Company increased the $50,000 payment warranty to a $75,000 payment warranty to all of its new clients. Effective June 1, 2017, the Company increased the payment warranty to $100,000 to all new clients who choose the premium processing method, PrepaCyte CB. Additionally, under the Cryo-Cell Cares^TM program, the Company will pay $10,000 to the client to offset personal expenses if the umbilical cord blood product is used for bone marrow reconstitution in a myeloablative transplant procedure. The product warranty and the Cryo-Cell Cares program are available to clients who enroll under this structure for as long as the specimen is stored with the Company. The Company has not experienced any claims under the warranty program nor has it incurred costs related to these warranties.

As discussed above, the Company has determined that the payment warranty represents variable consideration payable to the customer. Upon the adoption of ASC 606, the Company has concluded the payment warranty be fully constrained under the most likely amount method, therefore, the transaction price does not reflect any expectation of service level credits at August 31, 2020. At the end of each reporting period, the Company shall update the estimated transaction price related to the payment guarantee including updating its assessment of whether an estimate of variable consideration is constrained to represent faithfully the circumstances present at the end of the reporting period and the changes in circumstances during the reporting period.

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-15, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other Internal-Use Software (Topic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract. This update addresses how a customer should account for the costs of implementing a cloud computing service arrangement (also referred to as a “hosting arrangement”). Entities should account for costs associated with implementing a cloud computing arrangement that is considered a service contract in the same way as accounting for implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain software for internal use using the guidance in Topic 350-40. The amendments address when costs should be capitalized rather than expensed, the term to use when amortizing capitalized costs, and how to evaluate the unamortized portion of these capitalized implementation costs for impairment. The ASU also includes guidance on how to present implementation costs in the financial statements and creates additional disclosure requirements. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our financial statements.

In June 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This update simplifies the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions by expanding the scope of Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The guidance was effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within that reporting period. The Company evaluated this new standard and determined it had no impact on our financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The update removes Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our financial statements.

The aggregate consideration payable at closing under the Purchase Agreement was $14,000,000, with $10,500,000 paid in cash and the balance paid through the delivery to Seller of 465,426 shares of Cryo-Cell’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), at $7.52 per share. In addition, Cryo-Cell assumed certain limited liabilities incurred by Cord:Use in connection with its business that were unpaid as of the closing date and that directly relate to the services to be provided after closing by Cryo-Cell. Cryo-Cell also assumed certain of Cord:Use’s contracts and the obligations arising therefrom after the closing.

Additionally, Cord:Use is entitled to an earnout from Cryo-Cell’s sale of the public cord blood inventory from and after closing. Each calendar year after the closing, Cryo-Cell will pay to Cord:Use 75% of all gross revenues, net of any returns, received from the sale of public cord blood inventory in excess of $500,000. Such payments will be made quarterly, within 30 days of the end of the last month of each calendar quarter, until the public cord blood inventory is exhausted. In addition, each calendar year after closing, until the public cord blood inventory is exhausted, for every $500,000 of retained gross revenues, net of any returns, received and retained by Cryo-Cell in excess of the initial $500,000 retained by Cryo-Cell during such year, Cryo-Cell will deliver $200,000 worth of Cryo-Cell Common stock to Cord:Use, up to an aggregate value of $5,000,000. Cord:Use is also entitled to a portion of the gross profits generated, or deemed to have been generated, by Cryo-Cell from its ownership of the Tianhe Capital Stock.

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of the assets acquired from Cord:Use over the estimated fair value of the net tangible, intangible and identifiable assets acquired. The annual assessment of the reporting unit is performed as of September 1st, and an assessment is performed at other times if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the asset below its carrying value. The Company first performs a qualitative assessment to test goodwill for impairment and concludes if it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If the qualitative assessment concludes that it is not more likely than not that the fair value is less than the carrying value, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. If the qualitative assessment concludes that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value, then the two-step goodwill impairment test is required. Step one of the impairment assessment compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value and if the fair value exceeds its carrying value, goodwill is not impaired. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, the implied fair value of goodwill is compared to the carrying value of goodwill. If the implied fair value exceeds the carrying value then goodwill is not impaired; otherwise, an impairment loss would be recorded by the amount the carrying value exceeds the implied fair value.

The annual impairment assessment was performed as of September 1, 2019. The Company concluded that there was no impairment the assets acquired from Cord:Use.

As of both August 31, 2020 and November 30, 2019 goodwill is reflected at $1,941,411 on the consolidated balance sheets.

The operating results of Cord:Use have been included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income since the date of the acquisition.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company purchased the assets and assumed contracts that Cord:Use used in the operation of its cord blood business (See Note 2). The Company evaluated and determined that this acquisition qualifies as a separate segment.

The following table shows, by segment: net revenue, cost of sales, depreciation and amortization, operating profit, interest expense, and income tax (expense) benefit for the three months and nine months ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019:

The following table shows the assets by segment as of August 31, 2020 and November 30, 2019:

Inventory is comprised of public cord blood banking specimens, collection kits, finished goods, work-in-process and raw materials. Collection kits are used in the collection and processing of umbilical cord blood and cord tissue stem cells, finished goods include products purchased or assumed for resale and for the use in the Company’s processing and storage service. Inventory in the Public Cord Blood Bank includes finished goods that are specimens that are available for resale. The Company considers inventory in the Public Cord Blood Bank that has not completed all testing to determine viability to be work in process. Due to changes in sales trends and estimated recoverability of cost capitalized into inventory, an impairment charge of $2,332,763 was recognized during the second quarter of fiscal 2019 to reduce inventory from cost to net realizable value. The components of inventory at August 31, 2020 and November 30, 2019 are as follows:

The Company incurs certain legal and related costs in connection with patent and trademark applications. If a future economic benefit is anticipated from the resulting patent or trademark or an alternate future use is available to the Company, such costs are capitalized and amortized over the expected life of the patent or trademark. The Company’s assessment of future economic benefit involves considerable management judgment. A different conclusion could result in the reduction of the carrying value of these assets.

The 2012 Plan originally reserved 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for issuance pursuant to stock options, restricted stock, SARs, and other stock awards (i.e. performance shares and performance units). In May 2012, the Board of Directors approved an amendment to the 2012 Plan to increase the number of shares of the Company’s common stock reserved for issuance to 2,500,000 shares. In October 2019, the Board of Directors approved amendments to the plan, subject to ratification by the stockholders, which occurred at the Company’s 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on November 21, 2019.

As of August 31, 2020, there were 615,510 shares available for future issuance under the 2012 Plan.

The Company granted 1,500 options to an optionee during the second fiscal quarter of 2019 as approved by the Board of Directors. These options are not currently issued out of the 2006 or 2012 Plan.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock over the most recent period commensurate with the expected life of the Company’s stock options. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and employee termination within the valuation model. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The expected term of options granted to employees is based upon historical exercise data. Expected dividends are based on the historical trend of the Company not issuing dividends.

There were 7,000 and 51,969 options granted during the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020, respectively.

There were 110,965 and 112,465 options granted during the three and nine months ended August 31, 2019, respectively.

Variables used to determine the fair value of the options granted for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, respectively, are as follows:

	Three Months Ended	Three Months Ended	Nine Months Ended	Nine Months Ended
	August 31, 2020	August 31, 2019	August 31, 2020	August 31, 2019
Weighted average values:
Expected dividends	0%	0%	0%	0%
Expected volatility	51.8%	49.7%	62.6%	49.7%
Risk free interest rate	0.42%	1.39%	1.70%	1.40%
Expected life	6 years	5 years	9 years	5 years

Stock option activity for options with only service-based vesting conditions for the nine months ended August 31, 2020, was as follows:

Exercisable at August 31, 2020		1,047,166		$	3.23		3.08	$	5,380,026

The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the nine months ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019 was $4.94 and $3.32, respectively.

The aggregate intrinsic value represents the total value of the difference between the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of the period and the exercise price of the options, multiplied by the number of in-the-money stock options that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on either August 31, 2020 or November 30, 2019, as applicable. The intrinsic value of the Company’s stock options changes based on the closing price of the Company’s stock.

During the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020, the Company issued 0 and 20,000 common shares to option holders who exercised options for $0 and $41,000, respectively.

A summary of the status of the Company’s non-vested options as of August 31, 2020, and changes during the nine months ended August 31, 2020, is presented below:

As of August 31, 2020, there was approximately $314,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the 2006 Plan and the 2012 Plan. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.14 years as of August 31, 2020. The total fair value of shares vested during the nine months ended August 31, 2020 was approximately $474,000.

During the second fiscal quarter of 2018, the Company entered into Amended and Restated Employment Agreements (“2018 Employment Agreements”) with each of the Company’s Co-CEOs. Per the Employment Agreements, each of the Co-CEOs is to receive base grant equity awards in the form of qualified stock options of the Company’s common stock. As of December 20, 2019, David Portnoy and Mark Portnoy were granted 23,636 and 20,000 stock options of the Company’s common stock, respectively. The options were issued under the Company’s 2012 Stock Plan and will vest 1/3 upon grant, 1/3 on December 1, 2020 and the remaining 1/3 on November 30, 2021. The fair value of the options that vested through the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020 was approximately $6000 and $79,000, respectively, and is reflected as selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statement of comprehensive income. As of August 31, 2020, there was approximately $141,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to the non-vested options of common stock and these will continue to vest as notated above and per the 2018 Employment Agreements through November 30, 2021.

Per the 2018 Employment Agreements, based upon certain performance criteria, the Company shall grant David Portnoy and Mark Portnoy a percentage of up to 47,273 and 40,000, respectively, of qualified stock options of the Company’s common stock. For market-based vesting condition options, accounting principles do not require that the market condition be met in order for the compensation cost to be recognized. Fair value of these options has been determined using a Monte Carlo valuation approach. During fiscal 2019, 15,756 and 13,332, respectively, of qualified stock options were forfeited as certain market conditions were not met by the end of the requisite service period. The fair value of these options as of August 31, 2019 was approximately $136,000 and is reflected as selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statement of comprehensive income. There were no market-based vesting condition options for the nine months ended August 31, 2020. For performance-based vesting condition options, the Company estimates the fair value of qualified stock options that met certain performance targets by the end of the fiscal 2018 requisite service period using a Black-Scholes valuation model. As of August 30, 2019, the Company granted David Portnoy and Mark Portnoy 26,243 and 22,222 of non-qualified stock options of the Company’s common stock based upon certain performance criteria met by the end of the fiscal 2018 service period. These options were issued under the Company’s 2012 Stock Plan and will vest 1/3 upon date of grant, 1/3 on December 1, 2019 and 1/3 on November 30, 2020.

As of August 31, 2020, there was approximately $51,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to the non-vested options of common stock.

Per the Amendment Agreement, based upon certain performance criteria, the Company shall grant Oleg Mikulinsky a percentage of up to 8,000 of qualified stock options of the Company’s common stock. For market-based vesting condition options, accounting principles do not require that the market condition be met in order for the compensation cost to be recognized. Fair value of these options has been determined using a Monte Carlo valuation. During fiscal 2019, 2,666 of qualified stock options were forfeited as certain market conditions were not met by the end of the requisite service period. The fair value of these options as of August 31, 2019 was approximately $14,000, and is reflected as selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statement of comprehensive income. There were no market-based vesting condition options for the nine months ended August 31, 2020. For performance-based vesting condition options, the Company estimated the fair value of the qualified stock options that met certain performance targets by the end of the fiscal 2018 requisite service period using a Black-Scholes valuation model. As of September 4, 2019, the Company granted Oleg Mikulinsky 4,444 of qualified stock options of the Company’s common stock based upon certain performance criteria met by the end of the fiscal 2018 service period and per the Amendment Agreement. These options were issued under the Company’s 2012 Stock Plan and will vest 1/3 upon date of grant, 1/3 on December 1, 2019 and 1/3 on November 30, 2020.

On December 3, 2015, a complaint styled Gary T. Brotherson, M.D., et al. v. Cryo-Cell International, Inc., Case No. 15-007461-CI, Circuit Court, Sixth Judicial Circuit, Pinellas County, Florida, was served on the Company, naming it as defendant and alleging, among other things, that the Company breached certain agreements with plaintiffs and seeking damages in excess of $15,000, the jurisdictional amount of the court in which the action is pending. On January 12, 2016, the Company served its answer, affirmative defenses, and counterclaim against the plaintiffs.

On August 31, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), the Company entered into a Termination Agreement (“Termination Agreement”) with the Erie Group (the “Erie Group”), pursuant to which all such parties terminated all of their respective rights, duties, obligations, options, and liabilities to each other arising out of or related to the Cryo-Cell International, Inc. Space and Time Sharing (SATS) Lease Agreement, Addendum thereto, Addition to such Addendum, and Amendment to the Cryo-Cell International, Inc. Space and Time Sharing (SATS) Lease Agreement among the Company and the Erie Group (collectively, the “SATS Agreement”). Additionally, pursuant to the terms of the Termination Agreement, the Company made a payment of $1,939,748 on the Effective Date and the parties released each other from all claims related to the SATS Agreement and agreed to dismiss with prejudice to foregoing complaint. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Erie Group will no longer have the rights to share in a portion of the Company’s storage revenues derived from specimens which originated in the state of Illinois and its five contiguous states (See Note 15).

In addition, from time to time the Company is subject to proceedings, lawsuits, contract disputes and other claims in the normal course of its business. The Company believes that the ultimate resolution of current matters should not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, consolidated financial position or results of operations. It is possible, however, that there could be an unfavorable ultimate outcome for or resolution which could be material to the Company’s results of operations for a particular quarterly reporting period. Litigation is inherently uncertain and there can be no assurance that the Company will prevail. The Company does not include an estimate of legal fees and other related defense costs in its estimate of loss contingencies.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a pandemic related to the rapidly spreading coronavirus (“COVID-19”) outbreak. The Company faces various risks related to health epidemics, pandemics and similar outbreaks, including the global outbreak of COVID-19. The Company believes it has taken appropriate steps to minimize the risk to our employees and to maintain normal business operations but cannot at this time predict the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. It could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows. Operating results for the nine months ended August 31, 2020, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending November 30, 2020.

Effective June 9, 2020, the Company entered into a Patent Option Agreement (the “Option”) with Duke University (“Duke”). This exclusive Option is for a period of six months from the effective date of the Option. As consideration for the Option, the Company paid Duke a non-refundable, option fee of $350,000 during June 2020. Such option fee, plus any extension fee, will be fully credited against the license fee under the future license agreement. The Option is subject to extension by the Company for an additional six months by payment of $150,000 on or before the expiration of the initial six-month option period. In connection with the option, Cryo-Cell anticipates opening a clinic to help patients have greater access to cord blood treatments established by Duke University under the FDA granted Expanded Access Program.

The foregoing summary of the Option is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Option, a copy of which is attached to the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 11, 2020 as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference.

On August 31, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), the Company entered into a Termination Agreement (“Termination Agreement”) with the Erie Group (the “Erie Group”), pursuant to which all such parties terminated all of their respective rights, duties, obligations, options, and liabilities to each other arising out of or related to the Cryo-Cell International, Inc. Space and Time Sharing (SATS) Lease Agreement, Addendum thereto, Addition to such Addendum, and Amendment to the Cryo-Cell International, Inc.

Additionally, pursuant to the terms of the Termination Agreement, the Company made a payment of $1,939,748 on the Effective Date and the parties released each other from all claims related to the SATS Agreement and agreed to dismiss with prejudice the previously disclosed complaint (See Note 10). Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Erie Group will no longer have the rights to share in a portion of the Company’s storage revenues derived from specimens which originated in the state of Illinois and its five contiguous states. The payment amount of $1,939,748 was offset by the carrying amount of the long-term liability related to the SATS in the amount of $550,000 and accrued expenses in the amount of $279,100 to reflect the extinguishment of revenue sharing agreements in the amount of $1,070,900 for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020.

The Company is engaged in cellular processing and cryogenic storage, with a current focus on the collection and preservation of umbilical cord blood stem cells for family use. The Company’s principal sources of revenues are service fees for cord blood processing and preservation for new customers and recurring annual storage fees. Effective April 2016, the Company offers two pricing models, a standard plan and premium plan. The Company charges fees of $1,675 for the standard plan and $2,025 for the premium plan to new clients for the collection kit, processing, testing and return medical courier service, with discounts in the case of multiple children from the same family and in other circumstances. The Company charges an annual storage fee of $175 for new clients that enroll in the standard and premium plans; storage fees for existing customers depend on the contracts with such customers. The Company continues to offer a one-time payment plan for 18 years of storage and a lifetime payment plan, pursuant to which the client is charged $4,650 for the standard plan and $5,000 for the premium plan and approximately $5,800 for the standard plan and approximately $6,100 for the premium plan, respectively, less discounts in the case of multiple children from the same family and in other circumstances. The one-time plan includes the collection kit, processing and testing, return medical courier service and 18 years of prepaid storage fees. The lifetime plan includes the collection kit, processing and testing, return medical courier service and prepaid storage fees for the life of the client. The Company also receives other income from licensing fees and royalties from global affiliates.

On June 11, 2018, Cryo-Cell completed its acquisition of substantially all of the assets (the “Cord Purchase”) of Cord:Use Cord Blood Bank, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Cord:Use”), in accordance with the definitive Asset Purchase Agreement between Cryo-Cell and Cord:Use (the “Purchase Agreement”), including without limitation Cord:Use’s inventory of public cord blood units existing as of the closing date (the “Public Cord Blood Inventory”) and Cord:Use’s shares of common stock of Tianhe Stem Cell Biotechnologies, Inc., an Illinois corporation (the “Tianhe Capital Stock”). Cord:Use was in the business of public and private cord blood and tissue, collection, processing, storage and banking. The aggregate consideration payable at closing under the Purchase Agreement was $14,000,000, with $10,500,000 paid in cash and the balance paid through the delivery to Seller of 465,426 shares of Cryo-Cell’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), at $7.52 per share. In addition, Cryo-Cell assumed certain limited liabilities incurred by Cord:Use in connection with its business that were unpaid as of the closing date and that directly relate to the services to be provided after closing by Cryo-Cell. Cryo-Cell also assumed certain of Cord:Use’s contracts and the obligations arising therefrom after the closing. Additionally, Cord:Use is entitled to an earnout from Cryo-Cell’s sale of the Public Cord Blood Inventory from and after closing. Each calendar year after the closing, Cryo-Cell is required to pay to Cord:Use 75% of all gross revenues, net of any returns, received from the sale of public cord blood inventory in excess of $500,000. Such payments are to be made quarterly, within 30 days of the end of the last month of each calendar quarter, until the public cord blood inventory is exhausted. In addition, each calendar year after closing, until the public cord blood inventory is exhausted, for every $500,000 of retained gross revenues, net of any returns, received and retained by Cryo-Cell in excess of the initial $500,000 retained by Cryo-Cell during such year, Cryo-Cell is to deliver $200,000 worth of Cryo-Cell Common stock to Cord:Use, up to an aggregate value of $5,000,000. Cord:Use is also entitled to a portion of the gross profits generated, or deemed to have been generated, by Cryo-Cell from its ownership of the Tianhe Capital Stock.

During the nine months ended August 31, 2020, total revenue decreased 1% as compared to the same period in 2019. The Company reported net income of approximately $2,425,000 or $0.32 per basic common share for the nine months ended August 31, 2020 compared to net income of $1,446,000 or $0.19 per basic common share for the nine months ended August 31, 2019. Net income for the nine months ended August 31, 2020 principally resulted from a 4% decrease in cost of sales, a 1% decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses, a 14% decrease in interest expense and a 73% decrease in the Contingent Consideration (described below) which were offset by a 1% decrease in revenue and the termination of a revenue sharing agreement. On August 31, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), the Company entered into a Termination Agreement (“Termination Agreement”) with the Erie Group (the “Erie Group”), pursuant to which all such parties terminated all of their respective rights, duties, obligations, options, and liabilities to each other arising out of or related to the Cryo-Cell International, Inc. Space and Time Sharing (SATS) Lease Agreement, Addendum thereto, Addition to such Addendum, and Amendment to the Cryo-Cell International, Inc. Space and Time Sharing (SATS) Lease Agreement among the Company and the Erie Group (collectively, the “SATS Agreement”). Additionally, pursuant to the terms of the Termination Agreement, the Company made a payment of $1,939,748 on the Effective Date and the parties released each other from all

claims related to the SATS Agreement and agreed to dismiss with prejudice the previously disclosed complaint (See Note 10). Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Erie Group will no longer have the rights to share in a portion of the Company’s storage revenues derived from specimens which originated in the state of Illinois and its five contiguous states. The payment amount of $1,939,748 was offset by the carrying amount of the long-term liability related to the SATS in the amount of $550,000 and accrued expenses in the amount of $279,100 to reflect the extinguishment of revenue sharing agreements in the amount of $1,070,900 for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2020. Included in the net income for the nine months ended August 31, 2019 was an impairment charge of $2,332,763. Due to changes in sales trends and estimated recoverability of cost capitalized into inventory, an impairment charge of $2,332,763 was recognized during the second quarter of fiscal 2019 to reduce inventory from cost to net realizable value.

At August 31, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $8,107,608. The Company’s cash increased approximately $1,600,000 during the first nine months of fiscal 2020. Cash provided by operations was approximately $5,490,000 and cash provided due to the liquidation of marketable securities was $708,087 (see Note 1), which were offset by approximately $52,000 used for the purchase of property and equipment, $350,000 paid to Duke as part of the Patent Option Agreement (see Note 14), $1,900,000 toward the termination of a revenue sharing agreement (see Note 15) and approximately $2,325,000 used to repay the note payable.

The Company faces various risks related to health epidemics, pandemics and similar outbreaks, including the global outbreak of COVID-19. The Company believes it has taken appropriate steps to minimize the risk to our employees and to maintain normal business operations but cannot at this time predict the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. It could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows. Operating results for the nine months ended August 31, 2020, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending November 30, 2020.

Consistent with its fiduciary duties, the board of directors and management has reviewed and will continue to review strategic options and opportunities for the Company, in order to maximize shareholder value. These options may include, but are not limited to, strategic mergers or acquisitions, investments in other public and/or private companies, repurchases of RSA interests, a deregistration of the Company's common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or a going-private transaction. These options may or may not be related to the Company’s current business. In order to undertake any of the aforementioned activities, the Company may take on substantial debt or equity capital which could increase the risk of investment in the Company.

The ultimate realization of our deferred tax assets depends upon generating sufficient future taxable income prior to the expiration of the tax attributes. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, we must project future levels of taxable income. This assessment requires significant judgment. We examine the evidence related to the recent history of tax losses, the economic conditions in which we operate and our forecasts and projections to make that determination.

Pursuant to the terms of the Second Amendment to Credit Agreement, TCB made an additional advance to the Company in principal amount of $9,000,000 per an Amended and Restated Promissory Note dated June 11, 2018 between the Company and TCB in the principal amount of $15,500,000. The proceeds were used to finance a portion of the purchase price of the Cord:Use Purchase.

Prior to the loans, the Company’s principal source of cash has been from sales of its umbilical cord blood program to customers and royalties from licensees.

At August 31, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $8,107,608 as compared to $6,541,037 at November 30, 2019. The increase in cash and cash equivalents during the nine months ended August 31, 2020 was primarily attributable to the following:

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended August 31, 2020 was $5,489,878, which was attributable to the Company’s operating activities.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended August 31, 2019 was $5,170,392, which was attributable to the Company’s operating activities and an increase in the Company’s new clients choosing the prepaid storage plans versus the annual storage fee plan.

Net cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended August 31, 2020 was $305,691 which was attributable to cash received due to the liquidation of marketable securities in the amount of $708,087, offset by $52,396 used to purchase property and equipment and $350,000 used as part of the Patent Option Agreement with Duke (See Note 14).

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended August 31, 2019 was $507,339 which was primarily attributable to cash used to purchase property and equipment.

Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended August 31, 2020 was $4,228,998, which was primarily attributable to the payments of $2,324,998 to repay the note payable described above, $1,900,000 used to terminate a revenue sharing agreement (See Note 15), and $45,000 used to pay the Cord:Use earnout (See Note 1) which are offset by the receipt of $41,000 from the exercise of stock options.

Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended August 31, 2019 was $3,364,297, which was primarily attributable to the payments of $3,324,997 to repay the note payable described above, $45,000 used to pay the Cord:Use earnout offset by the receipt of $5,700 from the exercise of stock options.

The Company anticipates making discretionary capital expenditures of approximately $500,000 over the next twelve months for software enhancements and purchases of property and equipment. The Company anticipates funding future property and equipment purchases with cash-on-hand and cash flows from future operations.

The Company anticipates that its cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and cash flows from future operations will be sufficient to fund its known cash needs for at least the next 12 months. Cash flows from operations will depend primarily upon increasing revenues from sales of its umbilical cord blood and cord tissue cellular storage services and managing discretionary expenses. If expected increases in revenues are not realized, or if expenses are higher than anticipated, the Company may be required to reduce or defer cash expenditures or otherwise manage its cash resources during the next 12 months so that they are sufficient to meet the Company’s cash needs for that period. In addition, the Company may consider seeking equity or debt financing if deemed appropriate for its plan of operations, and if such financing can be obtained on acceptable terms. There is no assurance that any reductions in expenditures, if necessary, will not have an adverse effect on the Company’s business operations, including sales activities and the development of new services and technology.

This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. For a full discussion of our accounting policies please refer to Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 28, 2020. Our most critical accounting policies and estimates include: recognition of revenue and the related allowance for doubtful accounts, stock-based compensation, income taxes and license and revenue sharing agreements. We continually evaluate our judgments, estimates and assumptions. We base our estimates on the terms of underlying agreements, historical experience and other factors that we believe are reasonable based on the circumstances, the results of which form our management’s basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates. There have been changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from the information provided in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Please refer to Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonable likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

Based on their most recent review, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective, and that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and are effective to ensure that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

There were no other changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the nine months ended August 31, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Our management, including our Co-CEOs and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management or board override of the control.

The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Appearing as exhibits 31.1, 31.2 and 31.3 to this report there are Certifications of the Co-CEOs and the CFO. The Certifications are required in accordance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the Section 302 Certifications). This Item of this report is the information concerning the evaluation referred to in the Section 302 Certifications and this information should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.
