Item 1. Business
Corporate History
The Company was incorporated in Delaware on February 26, 2019 for the purpose of acquiring all of the equity of SteriLumen and MunnWorks. The Company acquired all of the capital stock of SteriLumen in March of 2019 pursuant to two exchange agreements in which the stockholders of SteriLumen exchanged all of their shares in SteriLumen for shares of common stock in the Company. The Company acquired all of the membership interests in MunnWorks in July of 2019 pursuant to an exchange agreement in exchange for shares of common stock of the Company. The Company conducts all of its operations through SteriLumen and MunnWorks. The Company’s current acquisition strategy is to acquire disinfection device companies or other complimentary medical businesses that allow us to demonstrate the effectiveness of the SteriLumen Disinfection System and devise and test new products, while achieving revenue and earnings growth.
On February 8, 2021 we acquired substantially all of the assets of Akida Holdings LLC (“Akida”) for $901,274.96 in cash and 1.375 million shares of our common stock and no assumption of any long term debt or non-operating liabilities pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement dated February 8, 2021 among the Company, SteriLumen, Akida and Akida’s members (the “Acquisition”). Prior to the Acquisition, Akida was the manufacturer of the Airocide™ system of air purification technologies, originally developed by NASA with assistance from the University of Wisconsin at Madison, that uses a combination of UVC and a proprietary, titanium dioxide based photocatalyst that may help to accelerate the reopening of the global economy with applications in the hospitality, hotel, healthcare, nursing homes, grocer, wine, commercial buildings and retail sectors. The Airocide™ system has been used by brands such as NASA, Whole Foods, Dole, Chiquita, Opus One, Sub-Zero Refrigerators and Robert Mondavi Wines.
The Airocide air purification products complement those of SteriLumen, and the distribution agreement with Akida proved successful as Akida saw significant increase in sales during the pandemic. The Akida distribution agreement helped us understand and appreciate the impact and import placed on air disinfection by the customer base we were beginning to engage. The company witnessed some key demand drivers first hand that could be profitably monetized if Akida had access to more working capital. We plan to build a path to a faster time to units and revenues through our supply chain optimization and investment in marketing to boost distribution. Akida's revenue for the full calendar year 2020 was approximately $4.7 million with EBITDA of approximately $921,000.
Our principal executive offices are located at 8480 East Orchard Road, Suite 2400, Greenwood Village, CO 80111and our telephone number is 720-531-4152. The Company currently has 37 employees, including executive officers, all of which are fulltime. Our website address is www.applieduvinc.com. The information contained therein or accessible thereby shall not be deemed to be incorporated into this Prospectus.
SteriLumen
Business Overview. SteriLumen was incorporated on December 8, 2016 in New York. SteriLumen develops and may acquire medical devices that eliminate pathogens that may cause healthcare-acquiured infections (HAIs) for distribution primarily to facilities that have high customer turnover such as hospitals, assisted living facilities, doctors’ offices and walk-in clinics as well as hotels, cruise lines, schools, airplanes and other public spaces. SteriLumen has developed and designed a unique, patented and automated disinfecting system that relies on high powered LEDs in the “C” range of the ultraviolet spectrum (UVC) that are designed into devices that work with bathroom fixtures “SteriLumen Disinfecting System”), which we believe will be effective in reducing HAIs caused by viruses, bacteria, fungi and other pathogens, including the coronavirus causing COVID-19 and other human viruses around the bathroom sink and other high-touch, pathogen intensive surfaces..
The SteriLumen Disinfecting System was initially developed by Max Munn while working with NBBJ1, a global architectural firm, and Healthcare Surface Consultants (“HSC”)2. SteriLumen owns all of the patents and other intellectual property with respect to the SteriLumen Disinfecting System and NBBJ and HSC have waived any claims they may have to any interest in the SteriLumen Disinfecting System. The SteriLumen Disinfecting System has five product lines: (i) disinfecting back-lit mirror that replaces the typical mirror (and wall lighting) found above the sink in a public facility bathroom (in development); (ii) disinfecting drain device (on market); (iii) disinfecting shelf that can be installed above a sink, beneath an existing bathroom mirror, or above other high-contamination risk surfaces (on market); (iv) mirrored medicine cabinet for residential use (in development) and (v) retrofit kit (in development). The Company has received confirmation from the U.S. Food & Drug Administration that the SteriLumen Disinfecting System is not a “device” under Section 201(h) of the FDA Act and therefore the Company is not required to comply with the requirements of the FDA Act. However, SteriLumen’s devices are in compliance with the FDA’s March 2020 “Enforcement Policy for Sterilizers, Disinfectant Devices, and Air Purifiers. During the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency”. In addition, the disinfecting shelf (SteriLumen Ribbon) and drain (SteriLumen Drain) systems have received certification from Underwriters Laboratories (UL), the global leader in product safety testing and certification.

During the last three years SteriLumen has focused on design, development, and manufacturing of the SteriLumen Disinfecting System and has evolved the system to incorporate an application (Clarity D3™) for remote monotiring and management of, and reporting from the devices. The disinfection technology together with the application comprise SteriLumen’s Data Driven Disinfection™ platform which we believe to be the first and only safe, simple, and validated connected platform of its kind on the market.
We pursue validation of our platform in both laboratory and real clinical settings. Initial devices were independently tested in 2020 at ResInnova Laboratories, an International Antimicrobial Council certified BSL-2 testing facility. The disinfecting mirror and disinfecting drain devices were found to be effective in killing (3- 4 log reductions) the most infectious and clinically important pathogens including C. difficile, methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), E. Coli, and OC43 human coronavirus, a strain structurally and genetically similar to SARS-CoV-2 and accepted as a surrogate for that virus. The Company is also sponsoring a study at Mount Sinai and its Icahn School of Medicine on the effectiveness of the SteriLumen Disinfecting System in patient bathrooms in a New York hospital in the Mount Sinai system. Mount Sinai has agreed to provide SteriLumen the results of their study in a report to be issued in the fourth quarter of 2021 as well as publishing their results in an academic, peer reviewed journal. The study performed under the Mount Sinai Agreement will be the first test of the SteriLumen Disinfecting System in a real worldhealthcare facility setting.
Since its inception, SteriLumen has devoted substantially all of its efforts to research and development, business planning, recruiting management and sales personnel, raising capital, developing relationships with potential suppliers and creating its own network of professional consultants. SteriLumen and Airocide product lines have manufacturing and assembly suppliers in Connecticut and Georgia in the United States, and Dongguan city in southern China; , and warehousing and distribution suppliers in California. By outsourcing the manufacturing, assembly, warehousing and distribution of our products, we can efficiently focus resources on design, marketing and sales while keeping overhead costs lower.
SteriLumen’s Airocide brands have enjoyed global sales in a variety of industries including healthcare, hospitality, grocery chains, wine making facilities, commercial real estate, schools, dental offices, and homes. As we bring the two brands together, delivering disinfection for both air and surfaces, initial sales efforts are targeting large commercial organizations in the sporting venue and hospitality markets in the US; we believe recent success here will support sales growth in the coming year. We intend to target international markets in Gulf Cooperation Council countries, China and Japan for both product lines, and continue to expand our global distributor network for Airocide
SteriLumen’s Data Driven Disinfection™ platform includes products with the following attributes:
Focus on high-contamination surfaces Focuses on pathogens that accumulate on the sink area, including handles, faucets, backsplash and in the drain.
Germicidal UVC LEDs. The UVC LEDs in our devices have demonstrated destruction of the most clinically relevant pathogens causing HAIs as well as destructionof SARS-CoV2, the virus causing COVID-19 (99.8% elimination in 5 seconds at a distance of 2cm).
Automatic operation. Built-in programmable controller that ensures operation for the full UVC dosage required daily and is not dependent on manual operation. Its functionality is expandable and may become a source for recurring income through additional data reporting, leasing and maintenance of add-on elements.
Continuous operation. Works in pre-programmed cycles that can be managed by a programmable controller. The motion detectors enclosed within each device allow continuous disinfection of high contamination areas as long as room occupants are within a safe distance of the device. Research has shown that microbes can rebound to pre-disinfection levels within two hours following manual terminal cleaning and disinfection. UVC products generally used for terminal cleaning in patient rooms have helped to reduce infections. Unfortunately, these can only be used after a patient is transferred/discharged and the patient room is vacant.
Safety. Built-in motion detector and sensor automatically shuts off the UVC light when anyone comes within range of the UVC light, eliminating safety concerns about UVC exposure. Once there is no movement in the room for 10 minutes the UVC light comes back on to restart and continue its cycle.
Removable UVC LED panel. The UVC LEDs are installed via removable panel forease of replacement or upgrade. The UVC LEDs are expected to become more powerful over time and users may want to replace the earlier generation UVC LEDs (at an interval and cost not yet determined) with more powerful models as the microbial world continues to change.
Ease of Installation. The unit is easy to install and uses standard electrical wiring.
Data and remote operations. The Clarity D3™ application enables Data Driven Disinfection™ with IOT connectivity using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and other RF technology for continuous transmission of use and functionality data for collection and analysis. Clarity D3 provides remote asset management and full visibility into the operation of the SteriLumen devices as well as efficacy reporting on the cycles that have run and subsequent cleanliness status. The app also enables Smart Maintenance, with LED cartridge lifecycle alerts, fault detection/reports and automatic system updates.
SteriLumen Drain. Consists of a stainless-steel pipe that is easily substituted for the ordinary pipe that fits between the bathroom sink drain cover and the C-trap. A UVC LED sits in a one-half inch perforation in the pipe in the plane of the interior of the pipe in order not to disrupt water flow. The UVC light destroys 6 logs (99.9999%) of the most common pathogens, thereby disinfecting the aerosol plume that rises out of the drain when the faucet is turned on.
SteriLumen Ribbon. Can be installed over sinks or other high-touch/contamination risk areas.
Airocide® Product Line
The Airocide technology is based on proprietary air purification designs and methods developed with NASA and the University of Wisconsin and licensed exclusively to the company, now owned by SteriLumen. The core technology is in use on the International Space Station and is based on photo-catalytic oxidation (PCO), a bioconversion process that continuously converts damaging molds, microorganisms, dangerous pathogens, destructive volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) and biological gasses into harmless water vapor. Unlike other air purification systems that provide “active” air cleaning, ionization or “photo-electrochemical oxidation” Airocide’s nanocoating technology permanently bonds titanium dioxide to the surface of the catalytic bed. This permits the perpetual generation of surface-bound (OH-) radicals over the large surface area created by their advanced geometric design and prevents the generation and release of ozone and other harmful byproducts. The proprietary formulation and methods for creating the catalyst are the basis of Airocide’s competitive advantage, making it the only consistently robust, highly effective, ozone free PCO technology on the market.
Airocide technology has been cleared by the FDA as a class II medical device, making it suitable for providing medical grade air purification in critical hospital settings such as operating rooms and surgical suites.
SteriLumen will market Airocide® product lines: APS (consumer units) and the GCS and HD lines (commercial units) and will enable the commercial units with Clarity D3™ to bring connectivity, reporting and asset management to our air purification products.
The APS series provides true, low maintenance filterless air purification ideal for residential and small or home office spaces. The GCS series is suitable for larger public spaces and enclosed rooms that may have high occupancy such as waiting rooms and hotel lobbies. The HD series is the most powerful, providing two-stage purification for fast sanitization of industrial spaces such as wine cellars, warehouses and food-processing facilities.
Product line for Hospitals
In October of 2020, we entered into an Exclusive Licensing & Joint Development Agreement with Axis Lighting to commercialize UVC devices for the hospital market. Axis Lighting is one of the largest independent architectural lighting companies in North America and operates a manufacturing facility with on-site design, engineering, and marketing staff to deliver high-performance LED luminaires for general, ambient and task lighting in offices, as well as in commercial and institutional spaces. BalancedCare™ by Axis provides healthcare lighting for wellness, offering patent-pending performance lighting for both visual comfort and functionality. BalancedCare™ addresses a number of requirements of today's complex healthcare environment, including infection control, and is supported and distributed through 98 Axis agents across North America.
Under the agreement, SteriLumen will work with Axis Lighting's BalancedCare™ team to leverage SteriLumen's intellectual property and proprietary know-how to commercialize a range of new LED-based technologies designed for use in the hospital sector. Axis will pay royalties to SteriLumen on sales of the commercial products developed through the collaboration. Our first jointly developed disinfection lighting fixture has completed the design phase and will launch later this year.
Markets
SteriLumen’s Data Driven Disinfection™ platform for surface and air disinfection addresses the pressing need in multiple markets to provide air and surfaces that are safe from disease-causing pathogens. The longevity of the pandemic and the increasing emergence of new strains of coronavirus in addition to other new pathogens creates a new normal where not only healthcare providers and patients, but customers, teachers, students and travelers are expecting disinfection and sanitization measures from employers, retail and hospitality establishments to protect the spaces they visit and occupy. SteriLumen and Airocide devices will help to keep environments safe and reduce the risk of transmission of disease causing pathogens such as coronavirus and healthcare-acquired infections (HAIs).
Pandemic Response and Preparedness
As Bloomberg reported in Dec 2020 (“Unsold U.S. Hotel Rooms Near 1 Billion as Lodging Crisis Deepens”), the coronavirus pandemic has cost hotels in the United States alone more than $46 billion in room revenue in 2020. Data from UBS Advisory Program and market data provider Statista estimates that the drop in foot traffic at US retail stores is down by nearly 35%, and the retail sector stands to lose up to 17% of stores over the next few years. Commercial vacancy rates are down significantly, but according to BOMA’s International Covid-19 CRE Impact Study, 74% of respondents believe in-person office space is vital to conducting successful business operations, validating demand for solutions to create safe office environments that enable employees to return to work.
Hospital Aquired Infections (HAIs)
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) defines HAIs as infections patients contract, while receiving treatment in a healthcare facility. HAIs are a significant problem in the United States and the cause of an estimated 99,000 deaths annually. The CDC states that preventing HAIs is a national priority, citing the following sobering statistics:
• approximately 1.7 million people in the United States contract a HAI every year, or 1 out of every 25 hospital patients;
• an estimated 99,000 people die from HAI’s annually;
• HAI cost to the healthcare system is $45 billion annually;
• patients with a HAI spend an average of 6.5 extra days in the hospital; and
• patients with a HAI are five times more likely to be readmitted and twice as likely to die.
HAI’s are preventable, and the federal government has instituted policies and penalties to ensure this issue is being addressed. In 2009, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) stopped paying hospital-related reimbursement for patients who acquired a HAI during their hospital stay. In 2011, CMS established fines for facilities with high rates of infection. The effects of reduced reimbursements have seriously impacted healthcare facilities with somereporting a reduction of up to 40% of their total revenue due to lost reimbursement.
Environmental disinfection is an important method in reducing the risk of HAIs. Evidence shows that traditional cleaning methods still leave persistent contamination of environmental surfaces.3 Without question, secondary disinfection technologies are needed for reducing the risk of surface contamination.
A big part of the challenge is controlling the presence of infectious agents in the patient room.
In SteriLumen’s platform for Data Driven Disinfection ™ addresses many of the issues that complicate effective disinfection of patient rooms and other areas at high risk for pathogen contamination including:
Restroom Designs: The bathroom is an area of high contamination. Toilets are located close to the sink and countertops. When flushed, they release a plume of microbial contamination into the air, ultimately landing on surfaces. Healthcare workers, the patient and visitors frequently use this room with many opportunities for acquisition and transmission of microbes throughout the patient care environment. Despite this, during a patient’s stay this room is typically cleaned only once a day.
3AJIC
Materials: Multiple surface materials and textiles cannot all be cleaned and disinfected effectively the same way. Surfaces that are not smooth can leave protective reservoirs for microbes to proliferate in and not be reached by the biocides used to destroy them.
Lack of Time: The average daily patient room disinfection time is 10 minutes (approximately 7 minutes for the main room and 3 minutes for the bathroom).
Despite best cleaning/disinfecting efforts, microbes can continue to thrive on surfaces for days, weeks, and even months.
Facilities understand the limitations of their current approach and are increasingly open to bundled or system-based solutions utilizing a variety of products and processes including “no touch” technology such as SteriLumen. No-touch systems are gaining acceptance by providing additional disinfection to the standard and required manual disinfection protocol described above. Many of these have been successful in addressing areas that may not have been disinfected effectively before. Examples of no-touch products include: (a) Hydrogen peroxide vapor or mist to get disinfectant into areas not always reached in the regular wipe-down, and (b) robotic systems that shine UVC light to kill bacteria. Each of these systems has significant limitations:
Room occupation: Both systems require that the room be unoccupied. As a result, they can only be used for “terminal” disinfection following patient discharge.
Line of sight: UVC systems require “line-of-sight” to the affected areas. Microbes on surfaces outside the line of sight of the light source are not affected. When used in a patient bathroom, for example, UVC robots cannot reach areas such as the inside of the sink bowl, drain, and areas behind the faucet.
The SteriLumen Disinfecting System can operate while the patient room is occupied and does not need human intervention.
UV Science & Technology
Ultraviolet light. Ultraviolet (“UV”) light is one form of electromagnetic energy produced primarily by the sun, although it can also come from man-made sources such as tanning beds and welding torches. UV light is a designated band of light (or electromagnetic energy) with wavelength from 100 to 400 nanometers (nm), which is shorter than visible light but longer than x-rays. UV light has enough energy to break chemical bonds. Due to their higher energies, UV photons can cause ionization, a process in which electrons break away from atoms. The resulting vacancy affects the chemical properties of the atoms and causes them to form or break chemical bonds that they otherwise would not. This can be useful for chemical processing, or it can be damaging to materials and living tissues. This damage can be beneficial, for instance, in disinfecting surfaces, but it can also be harmful, particularly to skin and eyes. UV is generally divided into three sub-bands: UVA, UVB, and UVC. Of the three, UVC has the shortest wavelength, the highest energy, and is most easily absorbed by most organic material.
UVC Disinfection. Using UV light to disinfect is a fast, effective, and safe technique that utilizes UVC. When exposed to UVC light, microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, cysts, and mold are affected in a way such that they can no longer multiply, rendering them harmless. UV disinfection can be used on surfaces, in air, and in water. Disinfection performance is a function of the UVC dose applied to the microorganism. While all micro-organisms respond to UVC light in different ways, if given the appropriate dose, which is the product of UVC power multiplied by time, 99.99% of micro-organisms can be killed. Microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, cysts, and mold are simple life forms that reproduce by subdivision, budding, or by producing spores. Reproduction of these organisms is vital to their life cycle: loss of their ability to grow and multiply is classified as cellular death, and renders them harmless and no longer pathogenic. When exposing microorganisms to UVC light, the energy generated from UVC light is absorbed into the microbes’ cellular RNA and DNA, damaging nucleic acids and preventing microorganisms from infecting and reproducing. The absorption of UVC energy forms new bonds between nucleotides, creating double bonds or “dimers.” Demineralization of molecules, particularly thymine, is the most common type of damage done to microorganisms by UVC. Formation of thymine dimers in the DNA of bacteria, fungi and viruses prevents replication and the ability to infect. Because UVC disinfection does not rely on chemicals or filtration materials, it can be used effectively and safely in many applications including in drinking water, in air.
LEDs. The traditional approach to generating UV light for disinfection applications has been the mercury discharge lamp, which is a fluorescent bulb without the phosphor coating. Recent advances in LED technology produced novel UV LEDs that generate specific UV wavelengths from solid-state microchips. Miniature, robust, and operating with a low electrical power, UV LEDs, unlike traditional mercury lamps, deliver highly stable output at the specific wavelengths needed for the application. LEDs also allow flexibility in design and can be arranged in a variety of designs includingflat panels, on flexible circuit boards, on the outside of cylinders and elsewhere.
Intellectual Property
Developing and maintaining a strong intellectual property position is an important element of our business. We maintain the intellectual property through a combination of patent protection, trademarks, and trade secrets. We have sought, and will continue to seek, patent protection for our technology, for improvements to our technology, as well as for any of our other technologies where we believe such protection will be advantageous.
As of March, 2021, SteriLumen owned seven issued patents and two pending patent applications in the United States; one issued patent in the European Union and 6 pending patent applications, which are pending in China, the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. The company’s pending U.S. patent applications are for Drain Disinfecting Device and method of installing the same and system for neutralizing pathogens on tactile surfaces. The issued patents and pending patent applications cover various aspects of the SteriLumen Disinfecting Systems including disinfection systems embedded into plumbing fixtures and vanity mirrors, and the mechanical components used in conjunction with such mirrors.
On December 3, 2019, SteriLumen received a trademark registration of its trademark or brand name “SteriLumen.”
The Airocide® products are covered by numerous international trademarks as well as 2 issued and one pending United States patents and their counterparts in Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, European Community, Gulf Cooperation Council, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Russian Federation, Taiwan, United Arab Emirates and United Kingdom. The Airocide family of patents protects the design of the consumer unit as well as specific utility of how the device works. The pending and issued patents cover, and are entitled “Photocatalytic Air Treatment System and Method”, “Air Treatment System,” “Air Purification System” and “Air Purification Device”. Certain aspects of the Airocide® technology concerning the specific implementation of the catalyst, reaction chamber, and geometry are covered by trade secret.
SteriLumen will protect and enforce its issued patents, trade secrets, know-how, copyrights, and trademarks, as well as continuing to pursue technological innovation and licensing opportunities, and developing and maintaining its competitive position in the vanity mirror and disinfecting product markets for hospitality, hospital and healthcare facilities. Our success depends in part on SteriLumen obtaining and enforcing patent protection for its products and processes, preserving and maintaining trade secrets, issued patents, copyrights and trademarks, and operating with state-of-the-art technologies while respecting the proprietary rights of third parties, and acquiring licenses for technology or products as may be beneficial to the company.
Our Strategy
AUVI seeks to acquire products, companies and technologies to complement its business in infection control and expand its offerings that protect people and environments from dangerous pathogens. We will also consider select acquisitions in medical devices or equipment that can be sold to the same customer base as our current products, which give us access to significant new markets, or which meet unmet needs in our current markets.
For our SteriLumen subsidiary, we believe that together, SteriLumen and Airocide devices represent safe, effective, unique and patented disinfecting systems that may significantly reduce the number of pathogens found in healthcare, industrial, educational and commercial facilities. Our initial targets for the combined solution of SteriLumen and Airocide are large commercial organizations in the sporting venue and hospitality markets in the United States.
Our goal is to build a company that successfully designs, develops and markets our platform for Data Driven Disinfection which will enable national economies to re-open and provide safe environments during and following the pandemic. Our platform will also be positioned to help decrease the national rate of HAIs. We will seek to achieve this goal by having SteriLumen actively involved in the following activities:
• Focus on large facilities in hospitality and sporting venues: this market segment has strong incentives to invest in additional disinfection to ensure guests and patrons return and left sales to pre-pandemic levels. Hotels, particularly those wishing to make disinfection, safety, and cleanliness part of their branded experience. In addition, our initial research indicates that the key stakeholders in this market value the asset management and reporting capabilities of our platform and provide key points of differentiation.
• Secondary focus on healthcare facilities outside of the hospital market: (i) Target infection prevention professionals in healthcare facilities including assisted living and long term care, clinics and ambulatory surgical centers.; (ii) Identify and target facilities that have been fined for high infection rates.
• Leverage relationships with Environmental Health and Safety organizations who are responsible for employee safety
• Continue scientific validation: through lab testing and data from real world deployments;publish case studies in peer reviewed journals.
• Leverage an outsourced supply chain: Leverage an outsourced supply chain for production and warehousing.
Other Market Segments
Beyond healthcare facilities, we are prioritizing our opportunities in additional market segments:
Airplane and Cruise Line Bathrooms. Because of the close quarters inside most airplane cabins, pathogens can easily be spread among passengers, especially on long flights where airplane bathrooms have more use and may not be cleaned before flight’s end. SteriLumen’s Data Driven Disinfection platform could provide an important means for disinfecting airplane bathrooms, keeping track of cleanliness during flights, and decreasing the spread of germs in the airplane cabin.
Schools. Schools and education authorities pay very close attention to disinfection to prevent the spread of influenza as well as other contagious threats. The CDC maintains guidelines for disinfection of schools and many other organizations also advise schools on proper disinfection protocol. SteriLumen’s disinfection systems could find a receptive audience among school facilities managers looking for new solutions to this issue.
Restaurants. Given the need to prevent foodborne illness, restaurants are constantly urging staff to wash their hands and are required by public health authorities to keep their premises as clean and germ-free as possible. SteriLumen could become part of upscale restaurants’ strategy to demonstrate dedication and commitment to customers and health department to reduce the spread of infections within their establishment.
Homes. Our Airocide brands have a strong foothold in the consumer marketplace and we will expand digital marketing activities to gain greater market share.
Competition
Given the uniqueness of the SteriLumen Disinfection Platform, we are not aware of any direct competition. However, there are indirect competitors utilizing UVC in ceiling and robot configurations as well as other no-touch chemical and “fog” disinfection systems.
No-touch Systems. No-touch systems have increased in popularity in recent years as complimentary and add on systems for addressing infection prevention issues following required cleaning and disinfection protocols. These have proven to be effective with a few major drawbacks. They are used only following patient transfer or discharge and cannot be used while the patient room is occupied. Due to the high cost for no touch systems, healthcare facilities generally choose one of several no-touch options, either UVC robots or peroxide vapor. An additional issue exists based on the available time for terminal disinfection if patients are waiting for a room or if staff is simply too busy to move this technology into the room and turn it on and off. Depending on the technology, the disinfecting system may need to be moved into the bathroom (additional cycle time) due to the constraints of the technology.
This system requires approximately 2 hours’ time in a completely sealed off room plus additional time to allow the air to clear before anyone can remove the seals put in place.
UVC systems. UVC disinfection is fast and very effective on surfaces in line of sight. Products on the market include but are not limited to ceiling mounted, wall-mounted, upper air UV disinfection units as well as UVC robots. Larger robot units recommend that their units be moved periodically to address critical areas that may be limited by shadowing or areas outside of the direct line of sight. Typically, the larger robots are used for terminal cleaning when the patient is discharged as a room must be empty to run these units. There are several manufacturers currently developing other products including smaller portable units that could be put in a patient room while the patient is receiving treatment elsewhere in the hospital. The competitive advantage of the SteriLumen system is its use of UVC LEDs. All of the below systems which generate UV light use mercury or xenon bulbs which are inherently dangerous if mishandled.
Peroxide vapor systems. Hydrogen peroxide vapor systems use machines to disperse a concentrated hydrogen peroxide vapor throughout a room. The micro condensation of the system on all surfaces deactivates harmful pathogens. The peroxide condensate breaks down to oxygen and water vapor, which means there is no harmful residue. Like UVC robot systems, peroxide vapor systems cannot be run when a patient is in the room. Furthermore, there is a need to seal the room and for personnel to wear hazmat suits during the disinfection process.
Competition in Air Purification
The Airocide technology is unique in the marketplace, offering numerous advantages over legacy technologies currently on the market such as HEPA filtration methods. Air purifiers relying on filter media, such as HEPA, trap contaminants, but can allow microscopic viruses to pass through unaffected. Ionizers or ozone generators can cause health issues when utilized in confined spaces. Electrostatic filters can quickly become contaminated and rendered ineffective. Unlike these conventional technologies, Airocide relies on a photo-catalytic reaction that enables it to destroy, rather than trap, even the most minute organic impurities in the air. From viruses to mold spores to volatile organic gases, Airocide offers unmatched efficacy in air purification technology as demonstrated in multiple independent laboratory tests.
MunnWorks
MunnWorks was formed on November 9, 2012, as a New York limited liability company. manufactures and supplies fine decorative framed mirrors, framed art, and vanities to primarily to the hospitality market. Max Munn, the President of Applied UV, is also the Chief Executive Officer of MunnWorks and has been involved in related businesses for over 35 years. MunnWorks manufactures its products domestically and overseas. Its domestic manufacturing operations are located in its headquarters in Mount Vernon, New York. MunnWorks supplies the major hotel brands in North America with its products. These brands include Hilton Hotels & Resorts, the various Hyatt branded hotels, the various Marriott branded hotels, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts and the subsidiary hotel brands for each of these major brands. MunnWorks has a national sales force and an established distribution network for hotels and restaurants in every major market in the United States and has begun to develop a distribution network for the assisted living market. These distribution networks will also be a significant asset for SteriLumen, as those networks will be utilized for the marketing and sales of the SteriLumen Disinfecting System. Additionally, MunnWorks advertises its products in hotel design magazines and participates in major national trade shows. During the last three years, MunnWorks has significantly expanded its sales force, including hiring a vice president of sales, increased investments in advertising, including expanding its presence at industry trade shows and full-page advertising in trade magazines such as Boutique Design and Hospitality Design and establishing a presence on social media outlets such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. MunnWorks currently manufactures approximately 20% to 25% of its products domestically, but expects this to increase to 35% due to increasing lead times, production costs and tariffs associated with manufacturing goods in China. We consider MunnWorks to be a leader in the custom design decorative framed mirror market. Our main competitors are Majestic Mirror located in Miami, Florida and Mirror Image located in Los Angeles who make decorative mirrors for hotels and Electric Mirror located in Seattle Washington who make backlit mirrors that are placed over vanities in the bathroom. None of these competitors have any meaningful domestic manufacturing capability.
On June 25, 2018, MunnWorks filed a voluntary petition for reorganization pursuant to Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in order to (i) pursue its appeal of a $1.4 million New York State court judgment arising out of an employment and business dispute with a former employer of Mr. Munn (of which Mr. Munn’s family-owned 50% of the equity) and (ii) preserve its ongoing operations from collection efforts with respect to such judgment. MunnWorks settled the dispute by making a $400,000 cash payment and on June 28, 2019, concluded its Chapter 11 proceedings.

We may in the future receive claims from third parties asserting, among other things, infringement of their intellectual property rights. Future litigation may be necessary to defend ourselves, our partners and our customers by determining the scope, enforceability and validity of third-party proprietary rights, or to establish our proprietary rights. The results of any future litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, and regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors. To date, we have not been made aware of any actual, pending or threatened litigation against the Company.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Overview
The Company was formed on February 26, 2019 for the purpose of acquiring all of the equity of SteriLumen and MunnWorks. The Company acquired all of the capital stock of SteriLumen in March of 2019 pursuant to two exchange agreements in which all of the stockholders of SteriLumen exchanged their shares in SteriLumen for shares of common stock in the Company. The Company acquired all of the equity of MunnWorks in July of 2019 pursuant to an exchange agreement in exchange for shares of common stock in the Company. The Company conducts all of its operations through SteriLumen and MunnWorks.
Sterilumen was formed to engage in the design, manufacture, assembly and distribution of the SteriLumen Disinfecting System for use in hospitals and other healthcare facilities. The Company has received several patent approvals for the SteriLumen Disinfecting System from the United States and the European Union and is in the process of receiving approval from various countries including China, Japan, Taiwan, South Korea and the Gulf Cooperation Council. The technology of the SteriLumen Disinfecting System uses UVC LED embedded in various bathroom fixtures or as a stand alone unit as a disinfection apparatus for use in inhabited facilities for killing airborne bacteria and other pathogens as well as killing bacteria and other pathogens residing on hard surfaces in proximity to the apparatus.
Following the Company’s initial public offering, product development efforts were accelerated. The system’s technology development roadmap, including connected and data-enabled capabilities has been refined and the Clarity D3 application will be launched along with the updated version of the SteriLumen Ribbon (now branded Lumicide™) in the fall of 2021. The Company has also achieved UL certification for both the stand-alone Ribbon, and integrated Drain products, ensuring that we meet requirements of commercial customers who rely on the UL mark as evicence of safety, quality and reliability.
The Company works with distributors to sell both SteriLumen and MunnWorks product lines, and is in the process of signing up new SteriLumen distributors of significant breadth and scale to introduce the SteriLumen products to new markets, including building management, commercial real estate, and environmental health and safety.
MunnWorks is a manufacturer of custom designed fine mirrors specifically for the hospitality industry with one manufacturing facility in Mount Vernon, New York. Our goal is to contribute to the creation of what our design industry clients seek: manufacturing better framed mirrors on budget and on time. As part of our long-term strategy, we have instituted multi-site production for high-value items, complicated designs and finishes. Our headquarters in Mount Vernon, NY serves as the center for multi-country manufacturing. We work with a satellite network of artisans and craftsmen, including gilders, carvers, and old-world finishers.
In addition to our domestic partners, we maintain overseas production capability with on-site MunnWorks employees. Moreover, as company policy, we conduct on-site factory visits for all in-process and outgoing orders, which are observed and checked by a project manager from our home office in Mount Vernon, NY before they leave our overseas partners’ facilities. The combination of quality, innovative, stylish merchandise, and value pricing has led us to develop a loyal customer base.

Net sales and gross profit are the most significant drivers of our operating performance. Net sales consist of all sales to customers, net of returns. Our net sales for year ended 2020 decreased by 58.7% to $5,732,734 from $9,095,150 in year ended 2019. All net sales for all periods presented were substantially generated from our MunnWorks subsidiary. Revenues and margins were significantly impacted from the suspension of operations of hotels and the impact to the hospitality industry from the COVID-19 pandemic.
Accordingly, gross profit expressed as a percentage of net sales can be influenced by many factors including overall sales performance. For year ended 2020, gross profit decreased 205.7% to $1,009,336 from $3,085,420 for year ended 2019. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased to 17.6% for year ended 2020 from 33.9% in year ended 2019, primarily driven by a significant decrease in sales generated from our domestic manufacturing. Major components and cost drivers of our cost of sales is influenced by the cost of materials, freight, overhead, and labor costs. In order to comply with the payroll protection program foregiveness requirements, the company kept many of their employees and there was significant downtime charged to cost of sales. Direct overhead costs from year to year remained consistent which resulted in higher overhead costs as a percentage of revenue. In addition, the company lowered its prices in order to stay competitive within the market.
Operating expenses, including the costs of operating our corporate office, are also an important component of our operating performance. Compensation and benefits comprise the majority of our operating expenses. Operating expenses contain fixed and variable costs and managing the operating expense ratio (operating expenses expressed as a percentage of net sales) is an important focus of management as we seek to increase our overall profitability. Operating expenses include cash costs as well as non-cash costs, such as stock based compensation and depreciation and amortization associated with corporate and property and equipment and impairment of long-lived assets. Operating expenses can also include certain costs that are of a one-time or non-recurring nature. For year ended 2020, Operating expenses increased 55.67% to $4,322,228 from $1,916,386 in year ended 2019. The change was primarily driven from an increase in professional fees, office salaries, research and development costs and stock based compensation. During 2020, the company hired a Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operations Officer, Vice President of Global Sales, and Vice President of Product Marketing and Corporate Development. The president of the company also took a $400,000 salary in 2020 that was not taken in 2019.
Net other income was $10,936 in year ended 2020, compared to net other income of $1,504,663 in year ended 2019, representing a decrease of $1,493,727. The decrease from 2019 was primarily due to a gain on settlement of $1,520,399 from the Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Case that was recorded in 2019. As a result of settlement in the bankruptcy case, the Company was able to settle certain liabilities at a significantly reduced amount. The difference between the carrying amount of the liability and the settled amount was recorded as a gain on settlement as other income.
Income tax expense was $66,854 in year ended 2020, compared to income tax expense of $106,801 in year ended 2019, representing a decrease of $40,007. The Company did not have income in 2020 and the amount expensed in 2020 related to a true up adjustment for 2019 taxes owed.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Applied UV, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2019, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.

The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Business
In March 2019, Applied UV, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed and incorporated in the State of Delaware for the intended purpose of creating a legal holding company structure for SteriLumen, Inc. and Munn Works, LLC and any future potential mergers or acquisitions. The then-existing shareholders and members of SteriLumen, Inc. and Munn Works, LLC exchanged all of their interest for shares of Applied UV, Inc. with substantially similar economic voting interests for each shareholder immediately before and after the share exchange. As a result of the share exchange, SteriLumen, Inc. and Munn Works, LLC became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Applied UV, Inc and, collectively referred to as (the “Company”). The combination met the criteria outlined in ASC 850 to be accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control and therefore the financial statements are being presented as if the transfer happened at the beginning of the period and prior year financial information has been retrospectively adjusted to furnish comparative information.
SteriLumen, Inc. is engaged in the design, manufacture, assembly and distribution of automated disinfecting mirror systems for use in hospitals and other healthcare facilities. The Company was incorporated in the State of New York in November of 2012 and is headquartered in Mount Vernon, New York. Munn Works, LLC is engaged in the manufacture of fine mirrors specifically for the hospitality industry.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Applied UV, Inc., Munn Works, LLC and SteriLumen, Inc. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
Restatement
Restatement of Financial Statements- The Company has restated herein its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019. While preparing its annual report for the year ended December 31, 2020 the Company identified an error in the timing of recognizing certain revenues. We erroneously recognized revenues in the amount of $234,570 in the fourth quarter of 2019. For the year ended and as of December 31, 2019, revenue was overstated by $234,570 and deferred revenue was understated by $234,570, respectively. See Note 16 for additional information.
Concentration of Credit and Business Risk
At times throughout the year, the Company maintains cash balances at various institutions, which may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, amounts of $37,029 and $459,543, respectively were in excess of FDIC insured limits.
The Company provides credit in the normal course of business. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for doubtful accounts based on factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.
For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company had four major suppliers that accounted for approximately 78% of supplies and materials used by the Company and for the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company had three major suppliers that accounted for approximately 76% of supplies and materials used by the Company. The amounts have been recorded as costs of sales in the consolidated statements of income.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company does not have any cash equivalents at December 31, 2019 and 2018.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2019 (As Restated) and 2018
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are non-collateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms generally requiring payment within 30-60 days from the invoice date. The carrying amounts of accounts receivable is reduced by a an allowance for doubtful accounts that reflects management’s best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected. The Company includes any accounts receivable balances that are determined to be uncollectible, along with a general reserve, in its overall allowance for doubtful accounts. Management reviews accounts receivable on a monthly basis to determine if any receivables will be potentially uncollectible. Historical bad debts and current economic trends are used in evaluating the allowance for doubtful accounts. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance. Based on the information available, the Company believes an allowance for doubtful accounts of $50,000 as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 is adequate.
Inventory
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out method. Inventory is comprised of raw materials that are purchased on the initial start date of a specific project and are capitalized using the percentage of completion method of accounting. We amortize these costs to the associated contract proportion with our percentage of completion on the contract, calculated using a cost-based input method. Capitalized costs are considered impaired when the net contract cost asset plus future costs to complete the contract are less than the remaining revenue to be recognized under the contract. When capitalized costs are impaired, we record a charge to the impairment, impairment charges cannot be reversed. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018 no impairment charges were recorded and management has determined that an excess and obsolete reserve is not required.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation of furniture and fixtures is provided using the straight-line method, generally over the terms of the lease. Repairs and maintenance expenditures, which do not extend the useful lives of the related assets, are expensed as incurred. Depreciation of machinery and equipment is based on the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Years
Machinery and equipment Lesser of term of lease or useful life
Furniture and fixtures
An asset is disposed of or retired when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from continued use of the asset. The gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an asset is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset.
Revenue and Cost Recognition
On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted accounting standard ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all the related amendments using the modified retrospective method for all customer contracts not yet completed as of the adoption date. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a significant impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Revenue and Cost Recognition (continued)
The Company recognizes revenue when the performance obligations in the client contract has been achieved. A performance obligation is a contractual promise to transfer a distinct service to the customer. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when or as, the customer receives the benefit of the performance obligation. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised services in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those services. To achieve this core principal, the Company applies the following five steps:
1) Identify the contract with a customer
A contract with a customer exists when (i) the Company enters into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and, (iii) the Company determines that collection of substantially all consideration for services that are transferred is probable based on the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration. The Company applies judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors including the customer’s historical payment experience or, in the case of a new customer, published credit and financial information pertaining to the customer.
2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract
Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from the Company, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. To the extent a contract includes multiple promised services, the Company must apply judgment to determine whether promised services are capable of being distinct in the context of the contract. If these criteria are not met the promised services are accounted for as a combined performance obligation. The Company promises to design, manufacture and sell custom mirrors through contractual arrangements. It was determined that most services within a contract are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer over the term of the agreement and are therefore highly interdependent upon each other. As such, the Company determined that the services within a contract are not separately identifiable in the context of the contract and should therefore be bundled into a single performance obligation.
3) Determine the transaction price
The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for transferring services to the customer. We evaluate whether a significant financing component exists when we recognize revenue in advance of customer payments that occur over time. We do not adjust the transaction price for the effects of financing if, at contract inception, the period between the transfer of control to a customer and final payment is expected to be one year or less. The Company establishes pricing for contracts with customers based on a fixed price for a fixed fee. Contracts do not provide for a discount or refund to customers and historically, no discounts or refunds have been given.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Revenue and Cost Recognition (continued)
4) Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract
If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. However, if a series of distinct services that are substantially the same qualifies as a single performance obligation in a contract with variable consideration, the Company must determine if the variable consideration is attributable to the entire contract or to a specific part of the contract. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price based on management’s judgment. The identified promises are considered to be bundled in arriving at the overall promise within the contract. This promise therefore results in one performance obligation, to design, manufacture and sell custom mirrors to our customer, therefore, allocation of the transaction price is not necessary.
5) Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation
Revenue is comprised of projects that are completed within our own facility or from a third-party vendor (direct sales). For projects that are completed within our own facility, the Company satisfies performance obligations at over time. For projects that are completed from a third-party vendor, the performance obligation is recognized at a point in time.
As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, total deferred revenue was $1,479,870 and $1,180,159. As of December 31, 2019, deferred revenue was comprised of work generated from our own Mount Vernon facility of $844,331, work performed at the third-party manufacturer of $598,510 and billings made upfront of $37,029. As of December 31, 2018, deferred revenue was comprised of work generated from our own Mount Vernon facility of $514,280, work performed at the third-party manufacturer of $206,337 and billings made upfront of $459,542. Deferred revenue balances at the beginning of the 2019 and 2018 reporting periods was recognized in full during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Each component of deferred revenue is further explained below.
For projects, that are completed within our own facility, we design, manufacture and sell custom mirrors for hotels and hospitals through contractual agreements. These sales require us to deliver our products within three to six months from commencement of order acceptance. We recognize revenue over time by using the input method based on costs incurred as it depicts our progress toward satisfaction of the performance obligation. Under this method, revenue arising from fixed price contracts is recognized as work is performed based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligations. Incurred costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs and depreciation costs. Contract material costs are included in incurred costs when the project materials have been purchased or moved to work in process as required by the project’s engineering design. Cost based input methods of revenue recognition require us to make estimates of costs to complete the projects. In making such estimates, significant judgment is required to evaluate assumptions related to the costs to complete the projects, including materials, labor and other system costs. If the estimated total costs on any contract are greater than the net contract revenues, we recognize the entire estimated loss in the period the loss becomes known and can be reasonably estimated. Deferred Revenue represents amounts billed in excess of revenues and profits recognized. Total deferred revenue from the input method of accounting was $844,331 and $514,280 as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Revenues and profits recognized in excess of amounts billed typically does not occur as we will not perform any work in excess of the amount we bill to our customers. On January 1, 2019, total deferred revenue from the input method of accounting was $204,880.
Each product or service delivered to a third-party customer that is manufactured by a third-party vendor is considered to satisfy a performance obligation. Performance obligations generally occur at a point in time and are satisfied when control of the goods passes to the customer. These sales are shipped from the manufacturer to the customer without our taking physical inventory possession. We report direct sales on a gross basis, that is, the amounts billed to our customers are recorded as “Sales,” and inventory purchased from manufacturers are recorded as Cost of Sales. We are the principal of direct sales because we control the inventory before it is transferred to our customers. Our control is evidenced by us being primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to our customers, taking on inventory risk of returned product, and having discretion in establishing pricing. We typically pay our vendors a portion of the total cost up front and the remaining balance is accrued for and paid within 30 to 60 days of when the products are shipped from the third-party warehouse. Vendor payments are capitalized until completion of the project and are recorded as vendor deposits. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the vendor deposit balance was $104,517 and $95,556, respectively.

5) Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation (continued)
Losses expected to be incurred on contracts in progress are charged to operations in the period such losses are determined. Deferred revenue from these projects as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 was $598,510 and $206,337, respectively. On January 1, 2019, total deferred revenue from these projects were $255,875. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, there were no losses charged to expense.
There are times that we bill upfront where no work is performed until 30 to 60 days after the deposit is received from our customer. Accordingly, no revenue is recognized and the amounts are deferred. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, deferred revenue balances related to these invoices were $37,029 and $459,542, respectively. On January 1, 2019, total deferred revenue related to these billings were $291,372.
For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company generated revenues of $6,394,222 at a point in time and $2,700,928 over time.
For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company generated revenues of $5,815,970 at a point in time and $1,740,474 over time.
Shipping and Handling Charges
The Company reports shipping and handling fees charged to customers as part of net sales and the associated expense as part of cost of sales. Shipping charges amounted to $1,664,950 and $938,111 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Advertising
Advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 was $218,724 and $265,637, respectively.
Research and Development
The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research and Development (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. The Company did not incur any research and development expenses during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.
Income Taxes
The Company files income tax returns using the accrual basis of accounting. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Current income taxes are based on the year’s income taxable for federal and state tax reporting purposes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement 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. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extend that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Per FASB ASC 740-10, disclosure is not required of an uncertain tax position unless it is considered probable that a claim will be asserted and there is a more-likely-than-not possibility that the outcome will be unfavorable. Using this guidance, as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company has no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. The Company’s 2018, 2017 and 2016 Federal and State tax returns remain subject to examination by their respective taxing authorities. Neither of the Company’s Federal or State tax returns are currently under examination.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company records the fair value of assets and liabilities in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurement. FASB ASC 820 establishes a framework for measuring fair value under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC 820 are as follows:
Level 1 - Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.
Level 2 - Valuations based generally on observable inputs for similar assets and liabilities, or identical or similar assets and liabilities in inactive markets.
Level 3 - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Valuation techniques could include the use of discounted cash flow models and other similar techniques.
The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The fair value of capital lease obligations approximate their carrying value because these financial instruments bear interest at rates that approximate current market rates for loans with similar maturities and credit quality.
Stock- Based Compensation
The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation awards in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (“ASC”), Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718"). ASC 718 requires all stock-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options and restricted stock and modifications to existing stock options, to be recognized in the statements of operations based on their fair values.
Patent Costs
We capitalize costs consisting principally of outside legal costs and filing fees related to obtaining patents. We amortize patent costs over the useful life of the patent, beginning with the date the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or foreign equivalent, issues the patent. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we capitalized $60,092 and $0 of patent costs. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we have not recorded any amortization expense for these patents.
Warranty Costs
The Company typically provides warranty on its products. The Company accrues for the estimated warranty costs at the time when revenue is recognized. The warranty accruals are regularly monitored by management based upon historical experience and any specifically identified failures. While the Company engages in extensive product quality assessment, actual product failure rates, material usage or service delivery costs could differ from estimates and revisions to the estimated warranty liability would be required. There was no warranty accrual as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Subsequent Events Evaluation Date
The Company evaluated the events and transactions subsequent to the December 31, 2019 balance sheet date, in accordance with ASC 855-10-50, "Subsequent Events", through June 23, 2020, which is the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or the FASB, issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize right-of-use, or ROU, assets and related lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases greater than one year in duration. We adopted ASC 842 on January 1, 2019 using a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The modified retrospective approach did not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. The adoption of this standard resulted in the recording of ROU assets and lease liabilities for all our lease agreements with original terms of greater than one year. The adoption of ASC 842 did not have a significant impact on our statements of income or cash flows.
In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions by expanding the scope of ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. Under the new standard, most of the guidance on stock compensation payments to nonemployees would be aligned with the requirements for share-based payments granted to employees. This standard became effective for our company on January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our financial statements.
Not Yet Adopted
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which removes, modifies and adds various disclosure requirements related to fair value disclosures. Disclosures related to transfers between fair value hierarchy levels will be removed and further detail around changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period and unobservable inputs used in determining level 3 fair value measurements will be added, among other changes. ASU 2018-13 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted. We will modify our disclosures beginning in the first quarter of 2020 to conform to this guidance. We do not expect the adoption of this standard and the associated changes to our disclosures to have a material impact to our financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology for financial assets with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. The new credit losses model must be applied to loans, accounts receivable, and other financial assets. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those annual periods. We plan to adopt the new standard in the first quarter of 2020 using a modified retrospective approach with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the year of adoption. We do not believe this guidance will have a material impact on our statements of operations or cash flows.
We currently believe that all other issued and not yet effective accounting standards are not relevant to our financial statements.

NOTE 6 - LOANS PAYABLE
In December of 2012, the Company received $260,000 from Seagrace Partners that accrued interest at 5% annually with no maturity date and no stated terms of repayment. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the note had an outstanding principal balance of $0 and $131,336, respectively. Interest expense related to this note for the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 was $5,902 and $7,656, respectively. The outstanding principal balance of $132,390 was reclassed to liabilities subject to compromise (note payable- pre-petition). In 2019, the Company entered into a settlement agreement in relation to the Company's Chapter 11 Bankruptcy (as further described in Note 10 of the financial statements) with the note holder where the Company would pay $80,000 over the next 90 days, in four equal installments of $20,000. The entire $80,000 was repaid prior to December 31, 2019. In addition, the Company will provide the third party lender 8,000 shares of common stock in the Company (subject to certain transfer restrictions), in an amount which will have a public trading value within 24 months of at least $85,000. If the value of the stock does not reach $85,000 at the end of 24 months, the shareholders of the Company will provide the third party lender make-up stock to reach the value of $85,000 with a maximum amount of shares to be issued of 17,000 shares. This repayment would constitute as full and final payment of any and all obligations to the lender. On the date of the settlement, the Company recorded a loss on extinguishments in the amount of $34,610.
In June of 2018 and June of 2016, the Company received advances from On Deck Capital in the amounts of $150,000 and $100,000, respectively. The June 2016 note matured in one year from the date of issuance and required 52 weekly payments of $2,346. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the balance of this note was $0 and interest expense of $3,981 was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2018. The June 2018 note matured in one year from the date of issuance and required 52 weekly payments of $3,605. As of December 31, 2018, the company made no repayments on this note and has an outstanding principal balance of $150,000. As part of the Chapter 11 Bankruptcy, the outstanding principal balance of $150,000 was reclassed to liabilities subject to compromise (note payable- pre-petition) as further described in Note 10 of the financial statements. Accrued interest on this note as of December 31, 2018 was $17,360 and an additional $20,140 was accrued for based on the proof of claim submitted by the note holder. These amounts were also reclassed to liabilities subject to compromise (accounts payable and accrued expenses- pre-petition) as further described in Note 10 of the financial statements. In 2019, the Company paid $18,750, which was 10% of the allowed proof of claim in the Chapter 11 Bankruptcy of $187,500. In addition, the Company was required to pay $157,500 in a five payments in the amount of $30,000 per year, with an additional $7,500 in year two. The Company recognized a gain on extinguishments of $11,250 in relation to the settlement in the year ended December 31, 2019.

NOTE 8 - RELATED PARTY
In February of 2019, the Company engaged Carmel, Milazzo & Feil LLP (the "Firm") to represent and assist the company with all general corporate legal matters including the preparation and filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission of a registration statement on Form S-1 through the Company's intended initial public offering. Ross Carmel, a former board member of Applied UV, is a partner at the firm. The firm will perform services in exchange for three percent of the outstanding shares of the Company's common stock, issued as follows: 1.) One percent due upon execution of the agreement 2.) One percent due up the filing of the Form S-1; and 3.) One percent due upon the SEC declaring the Form S-1 effective. As of December 31, 2019, the company was liable to issue 102,067 shares of common stock to the firm. These shares have not been issued to date and have been recorded as a liability to be settled in stock for an amount of $507,805. Because these legal fees are directly related to the initial public offering, the amount has been capitalized and is included in other assets.
NOTE 9 - LEASING ARRANGEMENTS
The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 prospectively as of January 1, 2019, the date of initial application, and therefore prior comparative periods were not adjusted. As part of the adoption, the Company elected the “package of expedients”, which permits the Company not to reassess under the new standard the Company’s prior conclusions about lease identification and initial direct costs. The Company did not elect the use-of hindsight or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements, the latter not being applicable to the Company. The Company has lease arrangements which are classified as short-term in nature. The Company has elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. This means, for those leases that qualify, the Company will not recognize Right of Use ("ROU") assets or lease liabilities.
The Company determines whether an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company has operating leases for office space and office equipment. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of one year to seven years, some of which include options to extend the lease term for up to five years. The Company considered these options to extend in determining the lease term used to establish the Company’s right-of use assets and lease liabilities once reasonably certain of exercise. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

NOTE 9 - LEASING ARRANGEMENTS (continued)
ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made in advance of lease commencement and excludes lease incentives. The lease terms used in the calculations of the operating ROU assets and operating lease liabilities include options to extend or terminate the lease when the Company is reasonably certain that it will exercise those options. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate of 5% based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. On the date of adoption the company recorded a ROU asset and a corresponding lease liability in the amount of $710,075.
On February 7, 2014, the Company entered into a lease agreement in Mount Vernon, New York on a month to month basis. The monthly rent under this arrangement from January 1, 2018 through November 30, 2018 was $10,000 per month, from December 2018 through February 2019 was $11,150 per month. The Company then amended the lease for a term that commenced on April 1, 2019 and expire on the 31st day of March 2024 at a monthly rate of $13,400. Rent expense for the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 was $156,300 and $121,150, respectively. The lease can be cancelled by either party with 150 days of written notice.
Schedule maturities of operating lease liabilities outstanding as of December 31, 2019 are as follows:
$ 160,800
160,800
160,800
160,800
40,200
Total lease payments 683,400
Less: Imputed Interest (68,878 )
Present value of future minimum lease payments $ 614,522
Consistent with ASC 842-20-50-4, the Company calculated its total lease cost based solely on its monthly rent obligation. The Company had no cash flows arising from its lease, no finance lease cost, short term lease cost, or variable lease costs. Our lease does not produce any sublease income, or any net gain or loss recognized from sale and leaseback transactions. As a result, the Company did not need to segregate amounts between finance and operating leases for cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities, segregated between operating and financing cash flows; supplemental non-cash information on lease liabilities arising from obtaining right-of-use assets; weighted-average calculations for the remaining lease term; or the weighted-average discount rate.

NOTE 11 - SHARE EXCHANGE
On March 26, 2019, March 27, 2019 and July 31, 2019, we and the shareholder of SteriLumen, Inc. and the sole member of Munn Works, LLC, completed the transactions contemplated by three Share Exchange Agreements. Pursuant to the applicable Share Exchange Agreements, SteriLumen, Inc. and Munn Works, LLC transferred to us all assets and liabilities. The shareholders of SteriLumen, Inc. exchanged all of their shares in SteriLumen for 2,000 preferred and 2,001,252 common shares of Applied UV, Inc. The sole member of Munn Works, LLC exchanged all of its membership interest in Munn Works, LLC for 3,000,000 common shares of Applied UV, Inc.

NOTE 12 - LEGAL
APF Management filed and served a complaint in 2013 New York state court against Munn Works, LLC, Max Munn and various other parties seeking recovery of damages and was awarded various damages on behalf of APF.
On June 25, 2018, Munn Works, LLC. entered Chapter 11 bankruptcy in order to facilitate an appeal and a resolution to this matter. As part of the Chapter 11 bankruptcy, APF management filed a claim in the amount of $1,474,505. All of the parties agreed to resolve the disputes whereby, APF would receive $400,000 payable by the Company. The amount was settled and paid in full in 2019.

NOTE 12 - LEGAL (continued)
Administration of Chapter 11 Case
In June of 2018, Munn Works, LLC received Bankruptcy court approval of certain "first-day" motions, which preserved the Company's ability to continue operations without interruption in Chapter 11. As part of the "first-day" motions, the Company received approval to pay or otherwise honor certain pre-petition obligations generally designed to support the Company's operations. Additionally, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Company's authority to pay for goods and services received post-petition in the ordinary course of business.
As part of the chapter 11 case, the Company has retained, pursuant to Bankruptcy Court authorization, legal and other professionals to advise the Company in connection with the administration of its chapter 11 case and its litigation with APF management, and certain other professionals to provide services and advice in the ordinary course business. As a result of the chapter 11 filing, the payment of pre-petition liabilities is generally subject to compromise pursuant to a plan of reorganization. Generally, under the Bankruptcy Code, actions to enforce or otherwise effect payment of pre-bankruptcy filing liabilities are stayed. Although payment of pre-petition claims generally is not permitted, the Bankruptcy Court granted the Company authority to pay certain pre-petition claims in designated categories and subject to certain terms and conditions. Among other things, the Bankruptcy Court has authorized the Company to pay certain pre-petition claims relating to employees and critical vendors.
On June 25, 2018. the Company filed schedules of assets and liabilities and statement of financial affairs (the "Schedules") with the Bankruptcy Court. The Bankruptcy Court has entered an order setting October 26, 2018 as the deadline for filing proofs of claim (the "Bar Date"). The Bar Date is the date by which claims against the Company relating to the period prior to the commencement of the Company's chapter 11 case must be filed if such claims are not listed in liquidated, non-contingent and undisputed amounts in the Schedules, or if the claimant disagrees with the amount, characterization or classification of its claim as reflected in the Schedules. Claims that are subject to the Bar Date and which are not filed on or prior to the Bar Date, may be barred from participating in any distribution that may be made under a plan of reorganization in the Company's chapter 11 case.
The Company applied Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 852, Reorganizations, which is applicable to companies under bankruptcy protection, and requires amendments to the presentation of key financial statement line items. It requires that the financial statements for periods subsequent to the chapter 11 filing distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. Revenues, expenses, realized gains and losses, and provisions for losses that can be directly associated with the reorganization and restructuring of the business must be reported separately as reorganization items in the consolidated statements of operations. The balance sheet must distinguish pre-petition liabilities subject to compromise from both those pre-petition liabilities that are not subject to compromise and from post-petition liabilities. Liabilities that may be subject to a plan of reorganization must be reported at the amounts expected to be allowed in the Company's chapter 11 case, even if they may be settled for lesser amounts as a result of the plan of reorganization or negotiations with creditors. In addition, cash used by reorganization items are disclosed separately in the consolidated statements of cash flow.
Liabilities Subject to Compromise
Pre-petition liabilities that are subject to compromise are required to be reported at the amounts expected to be allowed in the Company's chapter 11 case, even if they may be settled for lesser amounts. The amounts classified as Liabilities Subject to Compromise as of December 31, 2018 may be subject to future adjustments depending on Bankruptcy Court actions, further developments with respect to disputed claims, determinations of the secured status of certain claims, if any, the value of any collateral securing such claims, or other events. The Company cannot reasonably estimate the value of the claims that will ultimately be allowed in its chapter 11 case until its evaluation, investigation and reconciliation of all filed claims has been completed.

NOTE 12 - LEGAL (continued)
Liabilities Subject to Compromise (Continued)
The amount of liabilities subject to compromise represents the Company's estimate, where an estimate is determinable, of known or potential pre-petition claims to be addressed in connection with its chapter 11 case. Such liabilities are reported at the Company's current estimate, where an estimate is determinable, of the allowed claim amount, even though they may be settled for lesser amounts. These claims remain subject to future adjustments depending on Bankruptcy Court actions, further developments with respect to disputed claims, determinations of the secured status of certain claims, if any, the value of any collateral securing such claims, or other events.
As of December 31, 2018, Liabilities subject to Compromise consist of the following (note: all liabilities were settled in 2019, therefore no balances remain as of December 31, 2019):
Accounts payable and accrued expenses- pre-petition $ 492,014
Notes payable- pre-petition 370,390
Expectation damages accrual- APF Management 1,474,505
Total $ 2,336,909
Pursuant to Bankruptcy Court Order dated May 31, 2019, the Debtor’s Second Amended Chapter 11 Plan dated April 29, 2019 (the “Plan”) was approved and confirmed. The Plan provided treatment for five (5) classes of claims, with the general unsecured claims composing Class 4 Claimants. Under the Plan, Class 4 Claimants, would receive 10% of their Allowed Claim on the Effective Date. As a result of the bankruptcy claim, APF received and settled for $400,000 where a gain on settlement of $1,074,505 was recorded. As described in Note 6 of the financial statements, the Company recorded a total net gain from settlement of debt and gains from its Chapter 11 Bankruptcy case in the amount of $57,640. Other various pre-petition creditors received and settled for a total of $103,761, resulting in a gain on settlement in the amount of $388,253. The entire amount was escrowed on or before May 23, 2019 and paid within 15 days of the effective date of the stipulation. As a result of the transaction, the Company recorded a total gain on settlement of $1,520,398.
NOTE 13 - INCOME TAXES

December 31, 2019 (As Restated) and 2018
NOTE 13 - INCOME TAXES (continued)
The income tax provision differs from the expense that would result from applying federal statutory rates to income before income taxes because the Company is subject to state income taxes, deferred income taxes are based on average tax rates and a portion of gifts and meals and entertainment are not tax deductible. A valuation allowance has been provided to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. federal government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, or the Tax Act. The Tax Act makes broad and complex changes to the U.S. federal tax code, including, but not limited to reducing the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent, effective January 1, 2018.
Prior to the share exchange, Munn Works, LLC was taxed as a single member Limited Liability Company for federal and state income tax purposes. As such, the Company will not pay income taxes for earnings prior to the share exchange, as any income or loss will be included in the tax returns of the individual member. Accordingly, no provision is made for income taxes in the financial statements prior to the share exchange.
Effective tax rates differ from the federal statutory rate of 21% applied to income before provision for income taxes due to the following:
Federal statutory rate times financial statement income $ 610,746 $ 151,251
Less: Tax Rate applied to pre share exchange earnings (501,233 ) (151,251 )
Permanent tax basis differences (7,838 ) -
State taxable income 5,186 -
Total provision for income taxes $ 106,861 $ -
NOTE 14 - SEGMENT REPORTING
FASB Codification Topic 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for reporting financial and descriptive information about an enterprise’s reportable segments. The Company has two reportable segments: the design, manufacture, assembly and distribution of automated disinfecting systems for use in public spaces, hospitals and other healthcare facilities (disinfectant segment) and the manufacture of fine mirrors specifically for the hospitality industry (hospitality segment). The segments are determined based on several factors, including the nature of products and services, the nature of production processes, customer base, delivery channels and similar economic characteristics.
An operating segment’s performance is evaluated based on its pre-tax operating contribution, or segment income. Segment income is defined as net sales less cost of sales, and segment selling, general and administrative expenses, and does not include amortization of intangibles, stock-based compensation, other charges (income), net and interest and other, net.
All net sales, cost of goods sold, and other income (expense) was generated or incurred from the hospitality segment of our business. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the hospitality segment of our business incurred $1,860,422 and $1,857,240, respectively, of selling, general and administrative expenses. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the disinfectant mirror segment of our business incurred $55,963 and $55,861, respectively, of selling, general and administrative expenses.

NOTE 15 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT
Management has evaluated subsequent events through June 23, 2020, the date the financial statements were available to be issued. As a result of the spread of the COVID-19 Coronavirus and the resulting stay-at-home orders issued by the state and local municipalities in which the Company operates, the Company is experiencing reduced sales. The duration of the reduction in sales may be only temporary. However, the related financial impact and duration cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. On April 3, 2020, the Company submitted a Paycheck Protection Program application to Chase Bank for a loan amount equal to $296,287. The amount was approved and the Company has received the funds. The amount will be used to cover payroll costs, rent, and utilities. Employee and compensation levels are expected to be maintained, however, it is not certain at this time whether or not the loan will be forgiven.
On April 20, 2020, SteriLumen entered into the Mount Sinai Agreement pursuant to which Mount Sinai has agreed to conduct a study of the effectiveness of the SteriLumen Disinfecting System in 17 patient bathrooms at Mount Sinai St. Luke’s Hospital in New York, NY. SteriLumen will be responsible for funding the direct and indirect costs of Mount Sinai’s research in the amount of $160,000 plus all of the cost of microbiological testing. To the extent any intellectual property resulting from the research is conceived by Mount Sinai it will be the intellectual property of Mount Sinai and to the extent it is conceived by SteriLumen it will be the intellectual property of SteriLumen. SteriLumen has a 60-day exclusive option to negotiate a license for Mount Sinai’s resulting patent rights if such patent was obtained at SteriLumen’s request and SteriLumen has paid for all the costs in obtaining the patent. If the results of the study contained in Mount Sinai’s final report are used by SteriLumen in a successful regulatory filing or a successful fundraising effort, the Sponsor will be obligated to pay Mount Sinai a fee of $30,000.
Max Munn, Chief Executive Officer of the Company is entitled to a five-year warrant to purchase 80,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price equal to the greater of $5.00 per share and the per share market value of the Company's common stock at the date of the grant in lieu of cash salary. The issuance of the warrants is contingent upon an initial public offering.
In May of 2020, we adopted the Applied UV, Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which is effective as of March 31, 2020. Under the Plan, the Company may grant nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, and other awards. Awards of up to 600,000 shares of common stock to Company employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors are available under the Plan. The type of grant, vesting provisions, exercise price and expiration dates are to be established by the Board at the date of grant.

On April 1, 2020, we issued options to purchase 2,000 shares of Company common stock to the Board, of which 1,250 have been cancelled. The options are subject to equal quarterly vesting over a one-year period.
In June of 2020, we effected a 5:1 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) by filing an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State. The Reverse Stock Split combined every five shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to effecting the Reverse Stock Split into one share of Common Stock. As a result, the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock was retroactively adjusted in the consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 16 - RESTATEMENT
The Company has restated herein its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019. While preparing its annual report for the year ended December 31, 2020 the Company identified an error in the timing of recognizing certain revenues. We erroneously recognized revenues in the amount of $234,570 in the fourth quarter of 2019. For the year ended and as of December 31, 2019, revenue was overstated by $234,570 and deferred revenue was understated by $234,570, respectively. The tables below summarize the impact of the restatements described above on financial information previously reported on the Company’s Forms S-1 for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Applied UV, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there were no critical audit matters.
We have served as the Company's auditor since 2020.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Business
In March 2019, Applied UV, Inc. (the "Company") was formed and incorporated in the State of Delaware for the intended purpose of creating a legal holding company structure for SteriLumen, Inc. and Munn Works, LLC and any future potential mergers or acquisitions. The then-existing shareholders and members of SteriLumen, Inc. and Munn Works, LLC exchanged all of their interest for shares of Applied UV, Inc. with substantially similar economic voting interests for each shareholder immediately before and after the share exchange. As a result of the share exchange, SteriLumen, Inc. and Munn Works, LLC became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Applied UV, Inc and, collectively referred to as (the "Company"). The combination met the criteria outlined in ASC 850 to be accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control and therefore the financial statements are being presented as if the transfer happened at the beginning of the period and prior year financial information has been retrospectively adjusted to furnish comparative information.
SteriLumen, Inc. is engaged in the design, manufacture, assembly and distribution of automated disinfecting mirror systems for use in hospitals and other healthcare facilities. The Company was incorporated in the State of New York in November of 2012 and is headquartered in Mount Vernon, New York. Munn Works, LLC is engaged in the manufacture of fine mirrors specifically for the hospitality industry.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP").
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Applied UV, Inc., Munn Works, LLC and SteriLumen, Inc. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
Concentration of Credit and Business Risk
At times throughout the year, the Company maintains cash balances at various institutions, which may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, amounts of $11,546,724 and $37,029, respectively were in excess of FDIC insured limits.
The Company provides credit in the normal course of business. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for doubtful accounts based on factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company had two major suppliers that accounted for approximately 25.4% of supplies and materials used by the Company and for the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company had four major suppliers that accounted for approximately 78% of supplies and materials used by the Company. The amounts have been recorded as costs of sales in the consolidated statements of operations.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company does not have any cash equivalents at December 31, 2020 and 2019.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are non-collateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms generally requiring payment within 30-60 days from the invoice date. The carrying amounts of accounts receivable is reduced by a an allowance for doubtful accounts that reflects management’s best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected. The Company includes any accounts receivable balances that are determined to be uncollectible, along with a general reserve, in its overall allowance for doubtful accounts. Management reviews accounts receivable on a monthly basis to determine if any receivables will be potentially uncollectible. Historical bad debts and current economic trends are used in evaluating the allowance for doubtful accounts. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance. Based on the information available, the Company believes an allowance for doubtful accounts of $100,000 as of December 31, 2020 and $50,000 as of December 31, 2019 is adequate.
Inventory
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out method. Inventory is comprised of raw materials that are purchased on the initial start date of a specific project and are capitalized using the percentage of completion method of accounting. We amortize these costs to the associated contract proportion with our percentage of completion on the contract, calculated using a cost-based input method. Capitalized costs are considered impaired when the net contract cost asset plus future costs to complete the contract are less than the remaining revenue to be recognized under the contract. When capitalized costs are impaired, we record a charge to the impairment, impairment charges cannot be reversed. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019 no impairment charges were recorded and management has determined that an excess and obsolete reserve is not required.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation of furniture and fixtures is provided using the straight-line method, generally over the terms of the lease. Repairs and maintenance expenditures, which do not extend the useful lives of the related assets, are expensed as incurred. Depreciation of machinery and equipment is based on the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Years
Machinery and equipment Lesser of term of lease or useful life
Furniture and fixtures
An asset is disposed of or retired when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from continued use of the asset. The gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an asset is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Revenue and Cost Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when the performance obligations in the client contract has been achieved. A performance obligation is a contractual promise to transfer a distinct service to the customer. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when or as, the customer receives the benefit of the performance obligation. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised services in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those services. To achieve this core principal, the Company applies the following five steps:
1) Identify the contract with a customer
A contract with a customer exists when (i) the Company enters into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party's rights regarding the services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and, (iii) the Company determines that collection of substantially all consideration for services that are transferred is probable based on the customer's intent and ability to pay the promised consideration. The Company applies judgment in determining the customer's ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors including the customer's historical payment experience or, in the case of a new customer, published credit and financial information pertaining to the customer.
2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract
Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from the Company, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. To the extent a contract includes multiple promised services, the Company must apply judgment to determine whether promised services are capable of being distinct in the context of the contract. If these criteria are not met the promised services are accounted for as a combined performance obligation. The Company promises to design, manufacture and sell custom mirrors through contractual arrangements. It was determined that most services within a contract are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer over the term of the agreement and are therefore highly interdependent upon each other. As such, the Company determined that the services within a contract are not separately identifiable in the context of the contract and should therefore be bundled into a single performance obligation.
3) Determine the transaction price
The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for transferring services to the customer. We evaluate whether a significant financing component exists when we recognize revenue in advance of customer payments that occur over time. We do not adjust the transaction price for the effects of financing if, at contract inception, the period between the transfer of control to a customer and final payment is expected to be one year or less. The Company establishes pricing for contracts with customers based on a fixed price for a fixed fee. Contracts do not provide for a discount or refund to customers and historically, no discounts or refunds have been given.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Revenue and Cost Recognition (continued)
4) Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract
If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. However, if a series of distinct services that are substantially the same qualifies as a single performance obligation in a contract with variable consideration, the Company must determine if the variable consideration is attributable to the entire contract or to a specific part of the contract. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price based on management's judgment. The identified promises are considered to be bundled in arriving at the overall promise within the contract. This promise therefore results in one performance obligation, to design, manufacture and sell custom mirrors to our customer, therefore, allocation of the transaction price is not necessary.
5) Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation
Revenue is comprised of projects that are completed within our own facility or from a third-party vendor (direct sales). For projects that are completed within our own facility, the Company satisfies performance obligations at over time. For projects that are completed from a third-party vendor, the performance obligation is recognized at a point in time.
As of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, total deferred revenue was $841,636 and $1,479,870. As of December 31, 2020, deferred revenue was comprised of work generated from our own Mount Vernon facility of $233,080 and work performed at the third party manufacturer of $608,576. At December 31, 2019, deferred revenue was $1,479,870 which the entire amount was recognized as revenue during the year ended December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2019, deferred revenue was comprised of work generated from our own Mount Vernon facility of $844,331, work performed at the third party manufacturer of $598,510 and billings made upfront of $37,029.
For projects, that are completed within our own facility, we design, manufacture and sell custom mirrors for hotels and hospitals through contractual agreements. These sales require us to deliver our products within three to six months from commencement of order acceptance. We recognize revenue over time by using the input method based on costs incurred as it depicts our progress toward satisfaction of the performance obligation. Under this method, revenue arising from fixed price contracts is recognized as work is performed based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligations. Incurred costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs and depreciation costs. Contract material costs are included in incurred costs when the project materials have been purchased or moved to work in process as required by the project’s engineering design. Cost based input methods of revenue recognition require us to make estimates of costs to complete the projects. In making such estimates, significant judgment is required to evaluate assumptions related to the costs to complete the projects, including materials, labor and other system costs. If the estimated total costs on any contract are greater than the net contract revenues, we recognize the entire estimated loss in the period the loss becomes known and can be reasonably estimated. Deferred Revenue represents amounts billed in excess of revenues and profits recognized. Total deferred revenue from the input method of accounting was $233,080 and $844,331 as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Revenues and profits recognized in excess of amounts billed typically does not occur as we will not perform any work in excess of the amount we bill to our customers. On January 1, 2019, total deferred revenue from the input method of accounting was $204,880.

Revenue and Cost Recognition (continued)
5) Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation (continued)
Each product or service delivered to a third-party customer that is manufactured by a third-party vendor is considered to satisfy a performance obligation. Performance obligations generally occur at a point in time and are satisfied when control of the goods passes to the customer. These sales are shipped from the manufacturer to the customer without our taking physical inventory possession. We report direct sales on a gross basis, that is, the amounts billed to our customers are recorded as "Sales," and inventory purchased from manufacturers are recorded as Cost of Sales. We are the principal of direct sales because we control the inventory before it is transferred to our customers. Our control is evidenced by us being primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to our customers, taking on inventory risk of returned product, and having discretion in establishing pricing. We typically pay our vendors a portion of the total cost up front and the remaining balance is accrued for and paid within 30 to 60 days of when the products are shipped from the third-party warehouse. Vendor payments are capitalized until completion of the project and are recorded as vendor deposits. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the vendor deposit balance was $40,800 and $104,517, respectively.
Losses expected to be incurred on contracts in progress are charged to operations in the period such losses are determined. Deferred revenue from these projects as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 was $608,576 and $635,540, respectively. On January 1, 2019, total deferred revenue from these projects were $255,875. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, there were no losses charged to expense.
There are times that we bill upfront where no work is performed until 30 to 60 days after the deposit is received from our customer. Accordingly, no revenue is recognized and the amounts are deferred. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, deferred revenue balances related to these invoices were $- and $37,029, respectively. On January 1, 2019, total deferred revenue related to these billings were $291,372.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company generated revenues of $2,984,655 at a point in time and $2,748,079 over time.
For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company generated revenues of $6,628,792 at a point in time and $2,466,358 over time.
In October of 2020, we entered into an Exclusive Licensing & Joint Development Agreement with Axis Lighting to commercialize UVC devices for the hospital market. Axis Lighting is one of the largest independent architectural lighting companies in North America and operates a manufacturing facility with on-site design, engineering, and marketing staff to deliver high-performance LED luminaires for general, ambient and task lighting in offices, as well as in commercial and institutional spaces. BalancedCare™ by Axis provides healthcare lighting for wellness, offering patent-pending performance lighting for both visual comfort and functionality. BalancedCare™ addresses a number of requirements of today's complex healthcare environment, including infection control, and is supported and distributed through 98 Axis agents across North America. The Company has not generated any revenues from this contract and is in the process of analyzing the contract to assess whether this arrangement involves joint operating activities performed by parties that are both active participants in the activities and exposed to significant risks and rewards dependent on the commercial success of such activities and within the scope of ASC Topic 808, Collaborative Arrangements (“ASC 808”). This assessment is performed throughout the life of the arrangement based on changes in the responsibilities of all parties in the arrangement. For collaboration arrangements that are deemed to be within the scope of ASC 808, the Company first determines which elements of the collaboration are deemed to be within the scope of ASC 808 and those that are more reflective of a vendor-customer relationship and therefore within the scope of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”).
Shipping and Handling Charges
The Company reports shipping and handling fees charged to customers as part of net sales and the associated expense as part of cost of sales. Shipping charges amounted to $1,225,752 and $1,664,950 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Advertising
Advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 was $317,560 and $162,173, respectively.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Research and Development
The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research and Development (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred $310,672 research and development expenses during the year ended December 31, 2020. The Company did not incur any research and development expenses during the year ended December 31, 2019.
Income Taxes
The Company files income tax returns using the accrual basis of accounting. Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Current income taxes are based on the year's income taxable for federal and state tax reporting purposes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement 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. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extend that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable income will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Per FASB ASC 740-10, disclosure is not required of an uncertain tax position unless it is considered probable that a claim will be asserted and there is a more-likely-than-not possibility that the outcome will be unfavorable. Using this guidance, as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company has no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. The Company's 2019, 2018 and 2017 Federal and State tax returns remain subject to examination by their respective taxing authorities. Neither of the Company's Federal or State tax returns are currently under examination.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company records the fair value of assets and liabilities in accordance with Financial Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820, Fair Value Measurement. FASB ASC 820 establishes a framework for measuring fair value under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC 820 are as follows:
Level 1 - Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.
Level 2 - Valuations based generally on observable inputs for similar assets and liabilities, or identical or similar assets and liabilities in inactive markets.
Level 3 - Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. Valuation techniques could include the use of discounted cash flow models and other similar techniques.
The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The fair value of capital lease obligations approximate their carrying value because these financial instruments bear interest at rates that approximate current market rates for loans with similar maturities and credit quality.

Stock- Based Compensation
The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation awards in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 ("ASC"), Compensation-Stock Compensation ("ASC 718"). ASC 718 requires all stock-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options and restricted stock and modifications to existing stock options, to be recognized in the statements of operations based on their fair values.
Patent Costs
We capitalize costs consisting principally of outside legal costs and filing fees related to obtaining patents. We amortize patent costs over the useful life of the patent which is typically 20 years, beginning with the date the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, or foreign equivalent, issues the patent. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, we capitalized $182,654 and $60,092 of patent costs. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, we recorded $4,566 and $0, respectively, of amortization expense for these patents. The amounts are included in other assets on the balance sheet.
Warranty Costs
The Company typically provides warranty on its products. The Company accrues for the estimated warranty costs at the time when revenue is recognized. The warranty accruals are regularly monitored by management based upon historical experience and any specifically identified failures. While the Company engages in extensive product quality assessment, actual product failure rates, material usage or service delivery costs could differ from estimates and revisions to the estimated warranty liability would be required. There was no warranty accrual as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Subsequent Events Evaluation Date
The Company evaluated the events and transactions subsequent to the December 31, 2020 balance sheet date, in accordance with ASC 855-10-50, "Subsequent Events", through March 30, 2021, which is the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or the FASB, issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize right-of-use, or ROU, assets and related lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases greater than one year in duration. We adopted ASC 842 on January 1, 2019 using a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The modified retrospective approach did not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. The adoption of this standard resulted in the recording of ROU assets and lease liabilities for all our lease agreements with original terms of greater than one year. The adoption of ASC 842 did not have a significant impact on our statements of operations or cash flows.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)
Recently Adopted (Continued)
In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions by expanding the scope of ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. Under the new standard, most of the guidance on stock compensation payments to nonemployees would be aligned with the requirements for share-based payments granted to employees. This standard became effective for our company on January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which removes, modifies and adds various disclosure requirements related to fair value disclosures. Disclosures related to transfers between fair value hierarchy levels will be removed and further detail around changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period and unobservable inputs used in determining level 3 fair value measurements will be added, among other changes. ASU 2018-13 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard and the associated changes to our disclosures did not have a material impact to our financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology for financial assets with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. The new credit losses model must be applied to loans, accounts receivable, and other financial assets. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those annual periods. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, as part of its Simplification Initiative to reduce the cost and complexity in accounting for income taxes. This standard removes certain exceptions related to the approach for intra period tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. It also amends other aspects of the guidance to help simplify and promote consistent application of GAAP. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the effects that the adoption of this guidance will have its consolidated financial statements.
We currently believe that all other issued and not yet effective accounting standards are not relevant to our financial statements.

In addition, the Company will provide the third party lender 8,000 shares of common stock in the Company (subject to certain transfer restrictions), in an amount which will have a public trading value within 24 months of at least $85,000. If the value of the stock does not reach $85,000 at the end of 24 months, the shareholders of the Company will provide the third party lender make-up stock to reach the value of $85,000 with a maximum amount of shares to be issued of 17,000 shares.

The Plan permits the granting of Nonqualified Stock Options, Incentive Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares, Performance Units and Other Awards. The objectives of the Plan are to optimize the profitability and growth of the Company through incentives that are consistent with the Company’s goals and that link the personal interests of Participants to those of the Company’s stockholders. The Plan is further intended to provide flexibility to the Company in its ability to motivate, attract and retain the services of Participants who make or are expected to make significant contributions to the Company’s success and to allow Participants to share in the success of the Company. From time to time, we may issue Incentive Awards pursuant to the Plan. Each of the awards will be evidenced by and issued under a written agreement.
If an incentive award granted under the Plan expires, terminates, is unexercised or is forfeited, or if any shares are surrendered to us in connection with an incentive award, the shares subject to such award and the surrendered shares will become available for future awards under the Plan. The number of shares subject to the Plan, and the number of shares and terms of any Incentive Award may be adjusted in the event of any change in our outstanding common stock by reason of any stock dividend, spin-off, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, merger, consolidation, liquidation, business combination or exchange of shares, or similar transaction.
There are 462,500 shares available for future grants under the plans.

Share-based compensation expense for options totaling $15,049 was recognized in our results for the year ended December 31, 2020 based on awards vested. There was no option activity prior to December 31, 2019.
The valuation methodology used to determine the fair value of the options issued during the year was the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes model requires the use of a number of assumptions including volatility of the stock price, the average risk-free interest rate, and the weighted average expected life of the options.
The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon observed interest rates on zero coupon U.S. Treasury bonds whose maturity period is appropriate for the term of the options.
Estimated volatility is a measure of the amount by which the Company’s stock price is expected to fluctuate each year during the expected life of the award. The Company’s calculation of estimated volatility is based on historical stock prices of these peer entities over a period equal to the expected life of the awards. The Company uses the historical volatility of peer entities due to the lack of sufficient historical data of its stock price.
As of December 31, 2020, there was $307,459 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested employee options granted under the Company’s share-based compensation plans that is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1 year.

Upon the effectiveness of the Company’s S-1 registration statement in August of 2020, the Company issued the Firm an additional 59,728 common shares with a fair market value of $298,640.
NOTE 9 - LEASING ARRANGEMENTS
The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 prospectively as of January 1, 2019, the date of initial application, and therefore prior comparative periods were not adjusted. As part of the adoption, the Company elected the “package of expedients”, which permits the Company not to reassess under the new standard the Company’s prior conclusions about lease identification and initial direct costs. The Company did not elect the use-of hindsight or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements, the latter not being applicable to the Company. The Company has lease arrangements which are classified as short-term in nature. The Company has elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. This means, for those leases that qualify, the Company will not recognize Right of Use ("ROU") assets or lease liabilities.
The Company determines whether an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company has operating leases for office space and office equipment. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of one year to seven years, some of which include options to extend the lease term for up to five years. The Company considered these options to extend in determining the lease term used to establish the Company’s right-of use assets and lease liabilities once reasonably certain of exercise. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

NOTE 9 - LEASING ARRANGEMENTS (continued)
ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made in advance of lease commencement and excludes lease incentives. The lease terms used in the calculations of the operating ROU assets and operating lease liabilities include options to extend or terminate the lease when the Company is reasonably certain that it will exercise those options. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate of 5% based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. On the date of adoption the company recorded a ROU asset and a corresponding lease liability in the amount of $710,075.
On February 7, 2014, the Company entered into a lease agreement in Mount Vernon, New York on a month to month basis. The monthly rent under this arrangement from January 1, 2018 through November 30, 2018 was $10,000 per month, from December 2018 through February 2019 was $11,150 per month. The Company then amended the lease for a term that commenced on April 1, 2019 and expire on the 31st day of March 2024 at a monthly rate of $13,400. Rent expense for the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 was $171,600 and $156,300, respectively. The lease can be cancelled by either party with 150 days of written notice.
Schedule maturities of operating lease liabilities outstanding as of December 31, 2020 are as follows:
$ 160,800
160,800
160,800
40,200
Total lease payments 522,600
Less: Imputed Interest (41,175 )
Present value of future minimum lease payments $ 481,425
Consistent with ASC 842-20-50-4, the Company calculated its total lease cost based solely on its monthly rent obligation. The Company had no cash flows arising from its lease, no finance lease cost, short term lease cost, or variable lease costs. Our lease does not produce any sublease income, or any net gain or loss recognized from sale and leaseback transactions. As a result, the Company did not need to segregate amounts between finance and operating leases for cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities, segregated between operating and financing cash flows; supplemental non-cash information on lease liabilities arising from obtaining right-of-use assets; weighted-average calculations for the remaining lease term; or the weighted-average discount rate.

NOTE 12 - LEGAL (continued)
Administration of Chapter 11 Case
In June of 2018, Munn Works, LLC received Bankruptcy court approval of certain "first-day" motions, which preserved the Company's ability to continue operations without interruption in Chapter 11. As part of the "first-day" motions, the Company received approval to pay or otherwise honor certain pre-petition obligations generally designed to support the Company's operations. Additionally, the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Company's authority to pay for goods and services received post-petition in the ordinary course of business.
As part of the chapter 11 case, the Company has retained, pursuant to Bankruptcy Court authorization, legal and other professionals to advise the Company in connection with the administration of its chapter 11 case and its litigation with APF management, and certain other professionals to provide services and advice in the ordinary course business. As a result of the chapter 11 filing, the payment of pre-petition liabilities is generally subject to compromise pursuant to a plan of reorganization. Generally, under the Bankruptcy Code, actions to enforce or otherwise effect payment of pre-bankruptcy filing liabilities are stayed. Although payment of pre-petition claims generally is not permitted, the Bankruptcy Court granted the Company authority to pay certain pre-petition claims in designated categories and subject to certain terms and conditions. Among other things, the Bankruptcy Court has authorized the Company to pay certain pre-petition claims relating to employees and critical vendors.
On June 25, 2018. the Company filed schedules of assets and liabilities and statement of financial affairs (the "Schedules") with the Bankruptcy Court. The Bankruptcy Court has entered an order setting October 26, 2018 as the deadline for filing proofs of claim (the "Bar Date"). The Bar Date is the date by which claims against the Company relating to the period prior to the commencement of the Company's chapter 11 case must be filed if such claims are not listed in liquidated, non-contingent and undisputed amounts in the Schedules, or if the claimant disagrees with the amount, characterization or classification of its claim as reflected in the Schedules. Claims that are subject to the Bar Date and which are not filed on or prior to the Bar Date, may be barred from participating in any distribution that may be made under a plan of reorganization in the Company's chapter 11 case.
The Company applied Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 852, Reorganizations, which is applicable to companies under bankruptcy protection, and requires amendments to the presentation of key financial statement line items. It requires that the financial statements for periods subsequent to the chapter 11 filing distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. Revenues, expenses, realized gains and losses, and provisions for losses that can be directly associated with the reorganization and restructuring of the business must be reported separately as reorganization items in the consolidated statements of operations. The balance sheet must distinguish pre-petition liabilities subject to compromise from both those pre-petition liabilities that are not subject to compromise and from post-petition liabilities. Liabilities that may be subject to a plan of reorganization must be reported at the amounts expected to be allowed in the Company's chapter 11 case, even if they may be settled for lesser amounts as a result of the plan of reorganization or negotiations with creditors. In addition, cash used by reorganization items are disclosed separately in the consolidated statements of cash flow.
Liabilities Subject to Compromise
Pre-petition liabilities that are subject to compromise are required to be reported at the amounts expected to be allowed in the Company's chapter 11 case, even if they may be settled for lesser amounts. The amounts classified as Liabilities Subject to Compromise as of December 31, 2018 may be subject to future adjustments depending on Bankruptcy Court actions, further developments with respect to disputed claims, determinations of the secured status of certain claims, if any, the value of any collateral securing such claims, or other events. The Company cannot reasonably estimate the value of the claims that will ultimately be allowed in its chapter 11 case until its evaluation, investigation and reconciliation of all filed claims has been completed.

NOTE 12 - LEGAL (continued)
Liabilities Subject to Compromise (Continued)
The amount of liabilities subject to compromise represents the Company's estimate, where an estimate is determinable, of known or potential pre-petition claims to be addressed in connection with its chapter 11 case. Such liabilities are reported at the Company's current estimate, where an estimate is determinable, of the allowed claim amount, even though they may be settled for lesser amounts. These claims remain subject to future adjustments depending on Bankruptcy Court actions, further developments with respect to disputed claims, determinations of the secured status of certain claims, if any, the value of any collateral securing such claims, or other events.
Pursuant to Bankruptcy Court Order dated May 31, 2019, the Debtor’s Second Amended Chapter 11 Plan dated April 29, 2019 (the “Plan”) was approved and confirmed. The Plan provided treatment for five (5) classes of claims, with the general unsecured claims composing Class 4 Claimants. Under the Plan, Class 4 Claimants, would receive 10% of their Allowed Claim on the Effective Date. As a result of the bankruptcy claim, APF received and settled for $400,000 where a gain on settlement of $1,074,505 was recorded. As described in Note 6 of the financial statements, the Company recorded a total net gain from settlement of debt in the amount of $57,640. Other various pre-petition creditors received and settled for a total of $103,761, resulting in a gain on settlement in the amount of $388,253. The entire amount was escrowed on or before May 23, 2019 and paid within 15 days of the effective date of the stipulation. As a result of the transaction, the Company recorded a total gain on settlement of $1,520,398.
NOTE 13- MOUNT SINAI AGREEMENT
On April 20, 2020 SteriLumen entered into the Mount Sinai Agreement pursuant to which Mount Sinai has agreed to conduct a study of the effectiveness of the SteriLumen Disinfecting System in 17 patient bathrooms at Mount Sinai St. Luke’s Hospital in New York, NY. SteriLumen will be responsible for funding the direct and indirect costs of Mount Sinai’s research in the amount of $160,000 plus all of the cost of microbiological testing. To the extent any intellectual property resulting from the research is conceived by Mount Sinai it will be the intellectual property of Mount Sinai and to the extent it is conceived by SteriLumen it will be the intellectual property of SteriLumen. SteriLumen has a 60-day exclusive option to negotiate a license for Mount Sinai’s resulting patent rights if such patent was obtained at SteriLumen’s request and SteriLumen has paid for all the costs in obtaining the patent. If the results of the study contained in Mount Sinai’s final report are used by SteriLumen in a successful regulatory filing or a successful fundraising effort, the Sponsor will be obligated to pay Mount Sinai a fee of $30,000. The company has accrued and expensed the entire amount as of December 31, 2020.

NOTE 14 - INCOME TAXES
The provision for federal and state income taxes for the years ended is as follows:
Current provision:
Federal $ 53,265 $ 113,786
State 5,671
Deferred provision (benefit):
Federal $ 12,110 $ (12,110 )
State (486 )
Total Deferred 12,596 (12,596 )
Total provision for income taxes $ 66,854 $ 106,861
There is no current or deferred tax expense for 2020 with the exception of a true up adjustment from the prior year, due to the Company’s loss position. Realization of the future tax benefits related to the deferred tax assets is dependent on many factors, including the Company’s ability to generate taxable income within the net operating loss carryforward period. Management has considered these factors in reaching its conclusion as to the valuation allowance for financial reporting purposes and has recorded a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset.
The income tax effect of temporary differences comprising the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities is a result of the following at December 31:
Deferred tax assets:
Net operating loss $ 299,088 $ -
Amortization and start up costs - 12,596
Stock based compensation 189,883 -
Accrual to cash conversion 367,289 -
Total 856,260 12,596
Valuation allowance (856,260 ) -
Net $ - $ 12,596
The income tax provision differs from the expense that would result from applying federal statutory rates to income before income taxes because the Company is subject to state income taxes, deferred income taxes are based on average tax rates and a portion of gifts and meals and entertainment are not tax deductible. A valuation allowance has been provided to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
Prior to the share exchange, Munn Works, LLC was taxed as a single member Limited Liability Company for federal and state income tax purposes. As such, the Company will not pay income taxes for earnings prior to the share exchange, as any income or loss will be included in the tax returns of the individual member. Accordingly, no provision is made for income taxes in the financial statements prior to the share exchange.
Effective tax rates differ from the federal statutory rate of 21% applied to income before provision for income taxes due to the following:
Federal statutory rate times financial statement income $ (677,930 ) $ 610,746
Less: Tax Rate applied to pre share exchange earnings - (501,233 )
Permanent tax basis differences (7,838 )
Deferred true up 38,048 -
State taxable income, net (205,098 ) 5,186
Change in Valuation allowance 856,520 -
True up 54,258 -
Other -
Total provision for income taxes $ 66,854 $ 106,861
The Company has available net operating loss approximately $1,094,000 for tax purposes to offset future taxable income . Pursuant to the Tax Reform Act of 1986, annual utilization of the Company’s net operating loss and contribution carryforwards may be limited if a cumulative change in ownership of more than 50% is deemed to occur within any three-year period. The tax years 2017 through 2020 remain open to examination by federal agencies and other jurisdictions in which it operates.
NOTE 15 - SEGMENT REPORTING
FASB Codification Topic 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for reporting financial and descriptive information about an enterprise’s reportable segments. The Company has two reportable segments: the design, manufacture, assembly and distribution of automated disinfecting systems for use in public spaces, hospitals and other healthcare facilities (disinfectant segment) and the manufacture of fine mirrors specifically for the hospitality industry (hospitality segment). The segments are determined based on several factors, including the nature of products and services, the nature of production processes, customer base, delivery channels and similar economic characteristics.

NOTE 16 - PAYROLL PROTECTION PROGRAM
In April of 2020, the Company submitted a Paycheck Protection Program application to Chase Bank for a loan amount equal to $296,827. The amount was approved and the Company has received the funds. The Lender will have 90 days to review borrower’s forgiveness application and the SBA will have an additional 60 days to review the Lender’s decision as to whether the borrower’s loan may be forgiven. Under the CARES Act, loan forgiveness is available for the sum of documented payroll costs, covered rent payments, covered utilities, and certain covered mortgage interest payments during the twenty four-week period beginning on the date of first disbursement of the PPP Loan. For purposes of the CARES Act, payroll costs exclude compensation of an individual employee earning more than $100,000, prorated annually. Not more than 40% of the forgiven amount may be for non-payroll costs. Forgiveness is reduced if full-time headcount declines, or if salaries and wages for employees with salaries of $100,000 or less annually are reduced by more than 25%. Although the Company currently believes that its use of the PPP Loan will meet the conditions for forgiveness of the PPP Loan, the Company cannot assure that the PPP Loan will be forgiven, in whole or in part.
Future maturities of the loan payable, if not forgiven, are as follows:
Twelve months ending December 31,

NOTE 17- RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
While preparing its annual report for the year ended December 31, 2020 the Company identified an error in the timing of recognizing certain revenues. We erroneously recognized revenues in the amount of $234,570 in the fourth quarter of 2019 and $56,766 in the first quarter of 2020. As of December 31, 2020 and March 31, 2021, deferred revenue was understated by $234,570 and $291,336, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2020 and the three months ended March 31, 2021, revenue was overstated by $234,570 and $56,766, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2020, revenue was understated by $291,336. For the six and nine months ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020, revenue was understated by $234,570.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are the controls and other procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including the principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
We have carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act as of December 31, 2020.

Board of Directors
Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board. Our Board consists of seven directors, five of whom qualify as “independent” under the listing standards of Nasdaq.
Directors serve until the next annual meeting and until their successors are elected and qualified. Officers are appointed to serve for one year until the meeting of the Board following the annual meeting of shareholders and until their successors have been elected and qualified.
Board Leadership Structure and Risk Oversight
The Board oversees our business and considers the risks associated with our business strategy and decisions. The Board currently implements its risk oversight function as a whole. Each of the Board committees, as set forth below, will also provide risk oversight in respect of its areas of concentration and reports material risks to the board for further consideration.
Director Independence
Our board of directors are composed of a majority of “independent directors” as defined under the rules of Nasdaq. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(a)(2) provides that an “independent director” is a person other than an officer or employee of the company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the Company’s Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.
Under such definition, our Board has undertaken a review of the independence of each director. Based on information provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, our Board has determined that Joel Kanter, Dr. Eugene A. Bauer, Dr. Alastair Clemow, Dr. Dallas Hack and Eugene Burleson are all independent directors of the Company.
Board Committees
Our board of directors has established three standing committees, audit committee, compensation committee and nominating and corporate governance committee, each of which operate under a charter that has been approved by our board of directors.

• inquiring and discussing with management our compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
• pre-approving all audit services and permitted non-audit services to be performed by our independent auditor, including the fees and terms of the services to be performed;
• appointing or replacing the independent auditor;
• determining the compensation and oversight of the work of the independent auditor (including resolution of disagreements between management and the independent auditor regarding financial reporting) for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or related work;
• establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by us regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or reports which raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies; and
• approving reimbursement of expenses incurred by our management team in identifying potential target businesses.
The audit committee is composed exclusively of “independent directors” who are “financially literate” as defined under the Nasdaq listing standards. The Nasdaq listing standards define “financially literate” as being able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including a company’s balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement.
Compensation Committee
We have established a compensation committee of the board of directors to consist of Alastair Clemow, Eugene Bauer and Eugene Burleson, each of whom is an independent director. Each member of our compensation committee is also a non-employee director, as defined under Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, and an outside director, as defined pursuant to Section 162(m) of the Code.

Code of Ethics
