Note 1 Business Organization, Nature of Operations, and Basis of Presentation
BioRestorative Therapies, Inc. (and including its subsidiaries, “BRT” or the “Company”) is a development stage enterprise whose primary activities since inception have been the development of its business plan, negotiating strategic alliances and other agreements, raising capital and the sponsorship of research and development activities. BRT develops medical procedures using cell and tissue protocols, primarily involving adult stem cells designed for patients to undergo minimally invasive cellular-based treatments. BRT’s website is at www.biorestorative.com. BRT’s “brtxDISC Program” (Disc Implanted Stem Cells) is designed to offer a non-surgical cellular therapy for the treatment and relief of bulging and herniated discs. BRT’s “ThermoStem® Program” (Brown Fat Stem Cells) focuses on treatments for metabolic disorders, specifically targeting Type 2 diabetes and obesity by using brown fat stem cells. BRT has developed an ingredient derived from human adult stem cells, which can be used by third party companies in the development of their own skin care products. The ingredient was developed pursuant to BRT’s “brtx-C Cosmetic Program”. BRT’s Stem Pearls brand offers plant stem cell-based cosmetic skincare products that are available for purchase online at www.stempearls.com.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2013, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 and for the period from December 30, 2008 (inception) to September 30, 2013. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year ending December 31, 2013. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures of the Company as of December 31, 2012 and for the year then ended, and for the period from December 30, 2008 (inception) to December 31, 2012, which were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K on April 2, 2013.
Effective April 15, 2013, pursuant to authority granted by the stockholders and the Board of Directors of the Company, the Company implemented a 1-for-50 reverse split of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock (the “Reverse Split”) and a reduction in the number of shares of common stock authorized to be issued by the Company from 1,500,000,000 to 100,000,000. All share and per share information in this Form 10-Q has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Split.
Note 2 Going Concern and Management Plans
As of September 30, 2013, the Company had a working capital deficiency and a stockholders’ deficiency of $7,791,744 and $6,634,044, respectively. The Company has not generated significant revenues and incurred net losses of $18,191,785 during the period from December 30, 2008 (inception) through September 30, 2013. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company's primary source of operating funds since inception has been equity and debt financings. The Company intends to continue to raise additional capital through debt and equity financings. The Company is currently a development stage company and there is no assurance that these funds will be sufficient to enable the Company to fully complete its development activities or attain profitable operations. If the Company is unable to obtain such additional financing on a timely basis and, notwithstanding any request the Company may make, the Company’s debt holders do not agree to convert their notes into equity or extend the maturity dates of their notes, the Company may have to curtail its development, marketing and promotional activities, which would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations, and ultimately the Company could be forced to discontinue its operations and liquidate.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern and the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The carrying amounts of assets and liabilities presented in the financial statements do not necessarily purport to represent realizable or settlement values. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 2 Going Concern and Management Plans Continued
Subsequent to September 30, 2013, the Company has raised $350,000 through debt financing. As a result, the Company expects that the cash it has available will fund its operations through December 2013. While there can be no assurance that it will be successful, the Company is in active negotiations to raise additional capital. As of the filing date of this report, the Company has notes payable with an aggregate principal balance of $305,000 which are either past due or on demand. The Company is currently in the process of negotiating extensions or discussing conversions to equity with respect to these notes. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in extending or converting these notes. See Note 8 Subsequent Events for additional details.
Note 3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Stem Cell Cayman Ltd. (“Cayman”) and Stem Pearls, LLC. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods. The Company’s significant estimates and assumptions include the recoverability and useful lives of long-lived assets, the fair value of the Company’s stock, stock-based compensation, debt discount and the valuation allowance related to the Company’s deferred tax assets. Certain of the Company’s estimates, including the carrying amount of the intangible assets, could be affected by external conditions, including those unique to the Company and general economic conditions. It is reasonably possible that these external factors could have an effect on the Company’s estimates and could cause actual results to differ from those estimates.
Concentrations and Credit Risk
As of September 30, 2013, approximately 75% of the face value of the Company’s outstanding notes payable were sourced from a single entity (the “Bermuda Lender”). See Note 5 Notes Payable for additional discussion of the Bermuda Lender.
Cash
The Company maintains cash in bank accounts, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and periodically evaluates the credit worthiness of the financial institutions and has determined the credit exposure to be negligible. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had a de minimis amount deposited with an offshore financial institution which is not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
Revenue Recognition
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company’s revenue was attributable to sales of Stem Pearls® skincare products. The Company’s policy is to recognize product sales when the risk of loss and title to the product transfers to the customer, after taking into account potential returns. The Company recognizes sublicensing and royalty revenue when all of the following have occurred: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the service is completed without further obligation, (iii) the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.

Note 3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Continued
Net Loss Per Common Share
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of vested common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of vested common shares outstanding, plus the impact of common shares, if dilutive, resulting from the vesting of restricted stock and the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants.
The following securities are excluded from the calculation of weighted average dilutive common shares because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:
| | September 30, | |
| | 2013 | | 2012 | |
Options | | | 4,063,000 | | | 3,158,500 | |
Warrants | | | 4,545,890 | | | 2,750,000 | |
Total potentially dilutive shares | | | 8,608,890 | | | 5,908,500 | |
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company measures the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award. For employees, the fair value of the award is measured on the grant date and for non-employees, the fair value of the award is generally re-measured on vesting dates and interim financial reporting dates until the service period is complete. The fair value amount is then recognized over the period during which services are required to be provided in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. Since the shares underlying the Company’s 2010 Equity Participation Plan (the “Plan”) are not currently registered, the fair value of the Company’s restricted equity instruments was estimated by management based on observations of the cash sales prices of both restricted shares and freely tradable shares. Awards granted to directors are treated on the same basis as awards granted to employees.
Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the fiscal 2013 presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on the previously reported net loss.
Subsequent Events
The Company evaluates events that have occurred after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued. Based upon the evaluation, the Company did not identify any recognized or non-recognized subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the condensed consolidated financial statements, except as disclosed in Note 8.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-07, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) - Liquidation Basis of Accounting." This ASU addresses the requirements and methods of applying the liquidation basis of accounting and the disclosure requirements within Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 205 for the purpose of providing consistency between the financial reporting of U.S. GAAP liquidating entities. Generally, this ASU provides guidance for the preparation of financial statements and disclosures when liquidation is imminent. This ASU is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2013 and would only have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures if liquidation of the Company became imminent.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists." This ASU addresses the requirements regarding the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit within ASC Topic 740 for the purpose of providing consistency between the financial reporting of U.S. GAAP entities. Generally, this ASU provides guidance for the preparation of financial statements and disclosures when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. This ASU is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2013 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company received an aggregate of $119,255 in non-interest bearing advances from a director and an officer of the Company and made aggregate repayments of $90,325 of advances, such that the Company had a liability to a director, an officer and a family member of the same officer in the amounts of $9,990, $3,940, and $15,000, respectively, at September 30, 2013, which is due on demand. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company received an aggregate of $48,058 in non-interest bearing advances from an officer of the Company and made aggregate repayments of $22,000 of advances, such that the Company had a liability to the officer of $26,058 at September 30, 2012, which was due on demand and subsequently repaid.
Note 5 Notes Payable
On March 26, 2013, Cayman borrowed an additional $450,000 from the Bermuda Lender, which was combined with the already outstanding $3,550,000 of previous borrowings from the Bermuda Lender into a new $4,000,000 zero coupon note which matures on July 31, 2014. In consideration of the additional $450,000 loan, the waiver of accrued and unpaid interest of $213,000, and an extension of the maturity date of the outstanding loan, the Company issued to the Bermuda Lender 600,000 shares of common stock (valued at $480,000) and a five year warrant to purchase 400,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share (valued at $250,000). After determining that 266,250 shares of common stock were used to settle the accrued and unpaid interest, the Company determined that the relative fair value of the remaining equity securities issued was $457,826, which amount was set-up as debt discount and is being amortized via the interest method over the sixteen month term of the new note in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 470-60.

Note 5 Notes Payable Continued
On April 23, 2013, the Company and a lender agreed to extend the maturity date of a $25,000 note to June 30, 2013. The note bears interest at a rate of 15% per annum payable monthly. The parties also agreed that if the Company subsequently received at least $500,000 of net proceeds from an equity financing, the lender would have the right to demand immediate payment of the $25,000 note. In consideration of the foregoing, a five-year warrant to purchase 2,500 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 per share, with a relative fair value of $892, was issued to the lender and was recorded as a debt discount. On July 23, 2013, the maturity date of the note was extended to December 31, 2013. The extended note continues to bear interest at a rate of 15% per annum payable monthly. In connection with the extension, a five-year warrant to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share, with a relative fair value of $3,405, was issued to the lender and was recorded as a debt discount.
On June 6, 2013, the Company and a lender agreed to combine a previously outstanding $350,000 note (which was at maturity) with accrued and unpaid interest of $52,500 into a new $402,500 note (the “New Note”) which matures on December 6, 2013. The New Note bears interest at a rate of 15% per annum payable monthly. In consideration of the New Note, a five-year warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.75 per share, with a relative fair value of $18,435 using the Black-Scholes model, was issued to the lender and was recorded as a debt discount. In the event the New Note is not paid in full on or before December 6, 2013, the Company will issue to the lender a five-year warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price equal to 175% of the then fair market value of the Company’s common stock. As of September 30, 2013, the warrant had a fair value of $20,385 using the Black-Scholes model. The New Note shall be subject to acceleration as follows: (a) mandatory prepayment at a rate of 10.5% of Cosmetic Revenues (as defined in the New Note; excludes revenues associated with Stem Pearls® products); (b) if the Company receives debt and/or equity financing of at least $1,000,000, then $52,500 of the principal amount of the New Note shall be payable; (c) if the Company receives debt and/or equity financing of between $1,000,000 and $2,000,000, then an amount equal to 20% of such additional amount shall be payable; and (d) if the Company receives debt and/or equity financing of more than $2,000,000, then an amount equal to 10% of such additional amount shall be payable. In connection with the foregoing, the subscription agreement, dated June 6, 2012, was amended as follows: (a) the five-year period of royalty payments associated with Cosmetic Revenues shall commence on the date of the initial order of Cosmetic Products; (b) such royalty payments will range from 2% to 4% of Cosmetic Revenues, depending on the year the Cosmetic Revenues are earned and the status of the principal repayments, and are without maximum limitations. Given that the Company has not yet generated any Cosmetic Revenues, no royalty payments have been earned.
On July 19, 2013, the Company issued a lender a one-month note payable in the amount of $85,000, with interest of $15,000 due upon maturity (the “July Note Guaranteed Interest Amount”). In connection with the note, the Company issued a five-year warrant to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share. The warrant had a relative fair value of $3,767. In the event that the principal and July Note Guaranteed Interest Amount is not paid in full by the maturity date, the Company shall be obligated to pay to the lender interest on the unpaid principal sum and the unpaid Guaranteed Interest Amount at a rate of 15% per annum payable monthly. On August 19, 2013, the Company and the lender agreed to combine the outstanding $85,000 note (which was at maturity), accrued and unpaid interest of $15,000 and $50,000 of new proceeds into a new $150,000 note (the “New August Note”) which matures on August 19, 2014. The New August Note bears interest at a rate of 15% per annum payable monthly. In consideration of the foregoing, a five-year warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share, with a relative fair value of $18,116, was issued to the lender and was recorded as a debt discount.
On August 5, 2013, the Company issued a lender a six-month note payable in the amount of $36,000. The note bears interest at a rate of 12% per annum payable upon maturity. The note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the election of the Company during the period beginning five days prior to maturity and ending on the day immediately prior to maturity (the “August 5 Note Conversion Period”). The conversion price of the note is equal to the greater of (a) 60% of the fair value of the Company’s common stock, as determined by the average closing price of the Company’s common stock on the five trading days immediately preceding the August 5 Note Conversion Period or (b) $0.05 per share. As of September 30, 2013, the note is not convertible.
On August 8, 2013 and September 4, 2013, the Company repaid $2,000 on each date, respectively, of a note payable with an original principal balance of $8,500 such that the remaining principal balance as of September 30, 2013 was $4,500.

Note 5 Notes Payable Continued
On August 19, 2013, the Company issued a lender a six-month note payable in the amount of $35,000. The note bears interest at a rate of 12% per annum payable upon maturity. The note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the election of the Company during the period beginning five days prior to maturity and ending on the day immediately prior to maturity (the “August 19 Note Conversion Period”). The conversion price of the note is equal to the greater of (a) 60% of the fair value of the Company’s common stock, as determined by the average of the two lowest closing prices of the Company’s common stock on the five trading days immediately preceding the August 19 Note Conversion Period or (b) $0.05 per share.As of September 30, 2013, the note is not convertible.
On August 28, 2013, the Company issued a lender a note payable in the amount of $100,000, with interest of $20,000 due upon maturity (the “August Note Guaranteed Interest Amount”), which is being recognized during the term using the interest method. The note has a maturity date of December 31, 2013. In connection with the note, the Company issued a five-year warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share. The warrant had a relative fair value of $16,489. In the event that the principal and August Note Guaranteed Interest Amount is not paid in full by the maturity date, the Company shall be obligated to pay to the lender interest on the unpaid principal sum and the unpaid August Note Guaranteed Interest Amount at a rate of 15% per annum payable monthly, with payments due on the first date of each calendar month starting on February 1, 2014.
In addition to the debt financings described above, during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company issued an additional $223,600 of notes payable (which includes $600 of accrued interest that was converted to principal). In connection with the financings, five-year warrants to purchase 80,000 shares of common stock at exercise prices ranging from $1.50 to $2.50 per share, with an aggregate relative fair value of $25,601 using the Black-Scholes model, were issued to three of the lenders and were recorded as a debt discount. These notes are payable 6-12 months from the date of issuance and have a rate of interest of 15% per annum payable monthly.
In addition to the debt financings described above, during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the maturity dates of certain notes payable with an aggregate principal balance of $128,500 were extended to new maturity dates ranging from September 2013 through April 2014. All of the extended notes bear a 15% interest rate per annum payable monthly.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company and certain lenders agreed to exchange certain notes payable with an aggregate principal balance of $369,285, along with accrued and unpaid interest of $3,069, for an aggregate of 656,251 shares of common stock and five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 45,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share. The stock and warrants had an aggregate issuance date value of $379,554 and, as a result, the Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of $7,200. The lenders received piggyback registration rights related to the stock and the stock issuable pursuant to the warrants.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company issued 5,000 shares to a lender in connection with the 2012 extension of the maturity date of a note payable. The shares had a relative fair value of $3,704 and were expensed immediately as debt discount.

Consulting Agreements
On March 20, 2013, the Company granted an immediately vested, three-year warrant to purchase 10,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share to a consultant. The grant date value of $6,600 was recognized immediately.
On March 22, 2013, the Company granted an immediately vested, five-year warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.00 per share as consideration for legal services. The grant date value of $59,000 was recognized immediately.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, an aggregate of 52,552 and 123,036 shares of immediately vested common stock valued at $33,046 and $87,770, respectively, were issued to consultants for various services rendered to the Company.
Claims
On June 14, 2013, the Company received a claim letter from counsel to an alleged former consultant (“RAK Enterprises”) to the Company. The claims are associated with an alleged loan made in 2009 and an alleged consulting/employment agreement entered into with the Company effective in 2009. The aggregate claims are for approximately $218,000 of cash and approximately 93,912 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company has become aware of an action titled “RAK Enterprises v. BioRestorative Therapies” that was filed on November 8, 2013 with the Circuit Court of Palm Beach County, Florida. While the Company has not yet been served with the action and is unfamiliar with its contents, the Company has no reason to believe that such an action would make claims materially different than those presented by counsel in the aforementioned claim letter. The Company believes that the claims are without merit and it intends to vigorously defend this matter.
Note 7 Stockholders’ Deficiency
Common Stock Issuances
During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company issued an aggregate of 840,589 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $0.85 to $1.50 per unit to investors for aggregate gross proceeds of $905,000. In consideration of the purchases, the Company issued five-year warrants for the purchase of an aggregate of 403,590 shares of common stock, which are exercisable at exercise prices ranging from $1.50 to $4.00 per share of common stock. The warrants had an aggregate grant date fair value of $224,313.
See Note 5 Notes Payable for details associated with common stock issued in conjunction with the extension and exchange of notes payable and related accrued interest.
See Note 6 Commitments and Contingencies for details associated with common stock issued in conjunction with consulting agreements.
Warrant and Option Valuation
The Company has computed the fair value of warrants and options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Option forfeitures are estimated at the time of valuation and reduce expense ratably over the vesting period. This estimate will be adjusted periodically based on the extent to which actual option forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from the previous estimate, when it is material. The Company estimated forfeitures related to option grants at an annual rate of 0% for options granted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013. The expected term used for warrants and options issued to non-employees is the contractual life and the expected term used for options issued to employees is the estimated period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The Company utilizes the “simplified” method to develop an estimate of the expected term of “plain vanilla” employee option grants. Since the Company’s stock has not been publicly traded for a sufficiently long period of time, the Company is utilizing an expected volatility figure based on a review of the historical volatilities, over a period of time, equivalent to the expected life of the instrument being valued, of similarly positioned public companies within its industry. The risk-free interest rate was determined from the implied yields from U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bonds with a remaining term consistent with the expected term of the instrument being valued.

In applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model to warrants granted, the Company used the following weighted average assumptions:
| | For The Three Months Ended | | | For The Nine Months Ended | |
| | September 30, | | | September 30, | |
| | 2013 | | | 2012 | | | 2013 | | | 2012 | |

Expected dividends | | 0.00 | % | | 0.00 | % | | 0.00 | % | | 0.00 | % |
The weighted average estimated fair value of the warrants granted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $0.32 and $0.54, respectively, and was $0.70 and $0.65 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively.
The Company recorded stockbased compensation expense of $26,701 and $47,305 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, and $147,668 and $340,780 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, and $594,558 during the period from December 30, 2008 (inception) to September 30, 2013, related to stock warrants issued as compensation, which is reflected as consulting expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. As of September 30, 2013, there was $18,095 of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to stock warrants that is subject to non-employee mark-to-market adjustments and will be amortized over a weighted average period of 0.3 years.

The note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the election of the Company during the period beginning five days prior to maturity and ending on the day immediately prior to maturity (the “October 21 Note Conversion Period”). The conversion price of the note is equal to the greater of (a) 55% of the fair value of the Company’s common stock, as determined by the average closing price of the Company’s common stock on the five trading days immediately preceding the October 21 Note Conversion Period or (b) $0.05 per share.
On October 25, 2013, the Company issued a lender a note payable in the amount of $50,000 with a maturity date of May 8, 2014. The note bears interest at a rate of 12% per annum payable upon maturity.

In the event that the principal is not paid in full by the maturity date, the Company shall be obligated to pay to the lender interest on the unpaid principal at a rate of 8% per annum until the principal is paid or converted into shares of the Company’s common stock. In the event that the principal amount is not paid in full by March 8, 2014 and May 8, 2014, the principal amount of the note shall be deemed to be increased by $5,000 and $2,500, respectively.

Overview
We are a development stage enterprise whose primary activities since inception have been the development of our business plan, negotiating strategic alliances and other agreements, raising capital and the sponsorship of research and development activities. We develop medical procedures using cell and tissue protocols, primarily involving adult stem cells, designed for patients to undergo minimally invasive cellular-based treatments. Our website is at www.biorestorative.com. Our “brtxDISC Program” (Disc Implanted Stem Cells) is designed to offer a non-surgical cellular therapy for the treatment and relief of bulging and herniated discs. This research is still in the non-clinical, investigational stage. Our “ThermoStem® Program” (Brown Fat Stem Cells) focuses on treatments for metabolic disorders, specifically targeting Type 2 diabetes and obesity by using brown fat stem cells. Initial non-clinical research indicates that increased amounts of brown fat in the body may be responsible for additional caloric burning as well as reduced glucose and lipid levels in the body.
Pursuant to our “brtx-C Cosmetic Program”, we have developed an ingredient derived from human adult stem cells, which can be used by third party companies in the development of their own skin care products. Our Stem Pearls brand offers plant stem cell-based cosmetic skincare products that are available for purchase online at www.stempearls.com.
We currently are seeking to develop an infrastructure to establish a laboratory for the possible development of cellular-based treatment protocols, stem cell-related intellectual property and research applications.
Since inception, we have incurred substantial losses. As of September 30, 2013, the deficit accumulated during the development stage was $18,191,785, our stockholders’ deficiency was $6,634,044 and our working capital deficiency was $7,791,744. Through September 30, 2013, we have not yet generated significant revenues and our losses have principally been operating expenses incurred in development, marketing and promotional activities in order to commercialize our products and services, plus costs associated with meeting the requirements of being a public company. We expect to continue to incur substantial costs for these activities over at least the next year.
Based upon our working capital deficiency as of September 30, 2013 and the lack of substantial revenues from inception to September 30, 2013, we require equity and/or debt financing to continue our operations. Between December 2008 and September 30, 2013, we raised an aggregate of $6,818,139 in debt financing and $3,721,300 in equity financing. As of September 30, 2013, our outstanding debt of $5,306,000, together with interest at rates ranging between 8% and 20% per annum, was due on various dates through August 2014. Subsequent to September 30, 2013 and through the filing date, we have received aggregate debt financing of $350,000. As a result, we expect that the cash we have available will fund our operations through December 2013. While there can be no assurance that we will be successful, we are in active negotiations to raise additional capital. If we are unable to obtain such additional financing on a timely basis and, notwithstanding any request we may make, our debt holders do not agree to convert their notes into equity or extend the maturity dates of their notes, we may have to curtail our development, marketing and promotional activities, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, and ultimately we could be forced to discontinue our operations and liquidate. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below.

Gross profit
Revenues consisted of sales of Stem Pearls® skincare products. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, revenues were $125 as compared to $5,225 for the three months ended September 30, 2012.
Cost of goods sold consisted of the costs of the underlying products. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, cost of goods sold was $10 as compared to $1,270 for the three months ended September 30, 2012.
Marketing and promotion
Marketing and promotion expenses include advertising and promotion, marketing and seminars, meals, and entertainment and travel expenses. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, marketing and promotion expenses increased by $2,379, or 16%, from $15,012 to $17,391, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012, primarily due to increased travel expenses.
We expect that marketing and promotion expenses will continue to increase in the future as we increase our marketing activities following full commercialization of our products and services.
Consulting
Consulting expenses consist of consulting fees and stock-based compensation to consultants. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, consulting expenses decreased $209,453, or 53%, from $392,352 to $182,899, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease is primarily due to an approximate $214,000 decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation to directors and consultants primarily resulting from the issuance of warrants to consultants which resulted in $144,000 of expense being recognized in the three months ended September 30, 2012.
Research and development
Research and development expenses include cash and non-cash compensation of (a) our Chief Executive Officer (in part); (b) our Vice President of Research and Development; and (c) our Scientific Advisory Board members, and costs related to our brown fat and disc/spine initiatives. Research and development expenses are expensed as they are incurred. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, research and development expenses increased by $139,603, or 51%, from $275,315 to $414,918, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase is primarily related to cash and non-cash compensation of (a) our Chief Executive Officer (in part); (b) our Vice President of Research and Development; and (c) our Scientific Advisory Board members (approximately $135,000 of the increase).
We expect that our research and development expenses will continue to increase with the continuation of the aforementioned initiatives.
General and administrative
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, bonuses, payroll taxes, severance costs and stock-based compensation to employees (excluding any cash or non-cash compensation of (a) our Chief Executive Officer attributable to research and development and (b) our Vice President of Research and Development) as well as corporate support expenses such as legal and professional fees, investor relations and occupancy related expenses. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, general and administrative expenses decreased by $12,549, or 2%, from $526,458 to $513,909, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012.
We expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase as we expand our staff, develop our infrastructure and incur additional costs to support the growth of our business.
Interest expense
For the three months ended September 30, 2013, interest expense decreased $116,375, or 67%, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease was due to a reduction in interest-bearing outstanding short-term borrowings as compared to the second quarter of 2012.
Amortization of debt discount
For the three months ended September 30, 2013, amortization of debt discount increased by $18,469, or 19%, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012, primarily due the timing of the recognition of the debt discount expense.

Revenues consisted of sales of Stem Pearls® skincare products during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, revenues consisted of sublicense fees and sales of Stem Pearls® skincare products. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, revenues were $1,680 as compared to $15,225 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
Cost of goods sold consisted of the costs of the underlying products. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, cost of goods sold was $208 as compared to $1,270 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
Marketing and promotion
Marketing and promotion expenses include advertising and promotion, marketing and seminars, meals, and entertainment and travel expenses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, marketing and promotion expenses decreased by $2,625, or 3%, from $85,608 to $82,983, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012, primarily due to cash constraints.
We expect that marketing and promotion expenses will increase in the future as we increase our marketing activities following full commercialization of our products and services.
Consulting
Consulting expenses consist of consulting fees and stock-based compensation to consultants. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, consulting expenses decreased $661,180, or 54%, from $1,214,584 to $553,404, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease is primarily due to an approximate $663,000 decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation to directors and consultants primarily resulting from the issuance of warrants to consultants with a $324,000 charge in the nine months ended September 30, 2012, a grant of options to directors which were 50% immediately vested with a $247,000 immediate charge in the nine months ended September 30, 2012, and the issuance of our common stock to consultants for services in the amount of $80,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
Research and development
Research and development expenses include cash and non-cash compensation of (a) our Chief Executive Officer (in part); (b) our Vice President of Research and Development; and (c) our Scientific Advisory Board members, and costs related to our brown fat and disc/spine initiatives. Research and development expenses are expensed as they are incurred. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, research and development expenses increased by $739,912, or 165%, from $448,364 to $1,188,276, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase is primarily related to the commencement of our brown fat and disc/spine initiatives at the end of the second quarter of 2012 (approximately $208,000 of the increase) and cash and non-cash compensation of (a) our Chief Executive Officer (in part); (b) our Vice President of Research and Development; and (c) our Scientific Advisory Board members (approximately $399,000 of the increase).
We expect that our research and development expenses will continue to increase with the continuation of the aforementioned initiatives.
General and administrative
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, bonuses, payroll taxes, severance costs and stock-based compensation to employees (excluding any cash or non-cash compensation of (a) our Chief Executive Officer attributable to research and development and (b) our Vice President of Research and Development) as well as corporate support expenses such as legal and professional fees, investor relations and occupancy related expenses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, general and administrative expenses decreased by $414,736, or 19%, from $2,134,006 to $1,719,270, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease is primarily as a result of greater salary and executive bonus expense (approximately $175,000 of the decrease) and the tax liability associated with the vesting of our CEO’s restricted stock (approximately $193,000 of the decrease) in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as well as a decrease in employee non-cash stock-based compensation related to options granted to our employees and our CEO (approximately $68,000 of the decrease).
We expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase as we expand our staff, develop our infrastructure and incur additional costs to support the growth of our business.
Interest expense
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, interest expense decreased $177,630, or 38%, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease was due to a reduction in interest-bearing outstanding short-term borrowings as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
Amortization of debt discount
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, amortization of debt discount increased by $29,713, or 12%, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012, primarily due the recognition of the debt discount expense.
Loss on extinguishment of notes payable
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, loss on extinguishment of notes payable decreased by $46,440, or 87%, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012, which is associated with the excess value of equity securities exchanged for outstanding debt obligations.
Gain on settlement of note and payables, net
For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, gain on settlement of note and payables, net was $23,077, which represented the difference between our recorded payment obligation and the agreed amount that was ultimately paid pursuant to a settlement agreement with our former chief financial officer.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
We measure our liquidity in a number of ways, including the following:
| | September 30, | | December 31, | |
| | 2013 | | 2012 | |
| | (unaudited) | | | | |
Cash | | $ | 642 | | $ | 363 | |
Working Capital Deficiency | | $ | (7,791,744) | | $ | (2,784,676) | |
Notes Payable (Gross - Current) | | $ | 5,306,000 | | $ | 1,003,685 | |
Availability of Additional Funds
Based upon our working capital deficiency and stockholders’ deficiency of $7,791,744 and $6,634,044, respectively, as of September 30, 2013 and the insignificance of the revenues from inception to September 30, 2013, we require additional equity and/or debt financing to continue our operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Between December 2008 and September 30, 2013, we raised an aggregate of $6,818,139 in debt financing and $3,721,300 in equity financing. As of September 30, 2013, our outstanding debt of $5,306,000, together with interest at rates ranging between 8% and 20% per annum, was due on various dates through August 2014. Subsequent to September 30, 2013 and through the filing date, we have received aggregate debt financing of $350,000. As of the date of filing, our outstanding debt was as follows:
| | Principal | |
Maturity Date | | Amount | |
| | | | |
Past Due/On Demand | | $ | 305,000 | |
QE 12/31/13 | | | 600,500 | |
QE 3/31/14 | | | 151,000 | |
QE 6/30/14 | | | 144,500 | |
QE 9/30/14 | | | 4,260,000 | |
QE 12/31/14 | | | 200,000 | |
| | | | |
| | $ | 5,661,000 | |
As a result, we expect that the cash we have available will fund our operations through December 2013. Thereafter, we will need to raise further capital, through the sale of additional equity or debt securities, to support our future operations and to repay our debt (unless, if requested, the debt holders agree to convert their notes into equity or extend the maturity dates of their notes). Our operating needs include the planned costs to operate our business, including amounts required to fund working capital and capital expenditures. Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of our available funds will depend on many factors, including our ability to successfully commercialize our products and services, competing technological and market developments, and the need to enter into collaborations with other companies or acquire other companies or technologies to enhance or complement our product and service offerings.
We may be unable to raise sufficient additional capital when we need it or raise capital on favorable terms. Debt financing may require us to pledge certain assets and enter into covenants that could restrict certain business activities or our ability to incur further indebtedness, and may contain other terms that are not favorable to our stockholders or us. If we are unable to obtain adequate funds on reasonable terms, we may be required to significantly curtail or discontinue operations or obtain funds by entering into financing agreements on unattractive terms.
Our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate our continuation as a going concern and the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The carrying amounts of assets and liabilities presented in the financial statements do not necessarily purport to represent realizable or settlement values. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, our sources and uses of cash were as follows:
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities
We experienced negative cash flow from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 in the amounts of $1,908,651 and $2,101,468, respectively. The net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily due to cash used to fund a net loss of $4,120,201, adjusted for non-cash expenses in the aggregate amount of $952,926, partially offset by $1,258,624 of net cash provided by changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities, primarily as a result of extending payments to vendors, due to cash constraints during the period. The net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily due to cash used to fund a net loss of $4,617,627, adjusted for non-cash expenses in the aggregate amount of $1,525,317, partially offset by $990,842 of cash provided by changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities, primarily as a result of extending payments to vendors, due to cash constraints during the period.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities
During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, no cash was used in investing activities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, cash used in investing activities was $1,002,533, primarily due to cash used to acquire intangible assets in the amount of $1,000,000.
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $1,908,930 and $3,136,558, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, $905,000 of proceeds were from equity financings and $975,000 of proceeds, net of repayments, were from debt financings. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, $925,000 of proceeds were from equity financings and $2,185,500 of proceeds, net of repayments, were from debt financings.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
There are no material changes from the critical accounting policies set forth in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our Form 10-K filed on April 2, 2013. Please refer to that document for disclosures regarding the critical accounting policies related to our business.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
None.
Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not applicable.
Item 4: Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), such as this Quarterly Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Principal Executive and Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Internal controls are procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that (1) our transactions are properly authorized, recorded and reported; and (2) our assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use, to permit the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, management, with the participation of our Principal Executive and Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our Principal Executive and Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Controls
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) during the quarter ended September 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations of the Effectiveness of Control
A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations of any control system, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
On June 14, 2013, we received a claim letter from counsel to an alleged former consultant (“RAK Enterprises”) to us. The claims are associated with an alleged loan made in 2009 and an alleged consulting/employment agreement entered into with us effective in 2009. The aggregate claims are for approximately $218,000 of cash and approximately 93,912 shares of our common stock. We have become aware of an action titled “RAK Enterprises v. BioRestorative Therapies” that was filed on November 8, 2013 with the Circuit Court of Palm Beach County, Florida. While we have not yet been served with the action and are unfamiliar with its contents, we have no reason to believe that such an action would make claims materially different than those presented by counsel in the aforementioned claim letter. We believe that the claims are without merit and we intend to vigorously defend this matter.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Not applicable.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
During the three months ended September 30, 2013, we issued the following securities in transactions not involving any public offering. For each of the following transactions, we relied upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. For each such transaction, we did not use general solicitation or advertising to market the securities, the securities were offered to a limited number of persons, the investors had access to information regarding us (including, as applicable, information contained in our annual report for the year ended December 31, 2012; quarterly report for the period ended March 31, 2013; quarterly report for the period ended June 30, 2013; current reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission; and press releases made by us), and we were available to answer questions from prospective investors. We reasonably believe that each of the investors is an accredited investor. The proceeds were used to reduce our working capital deficit.

| (1) | The value of the non-cash consideration was estimated to be the fair values of our restricted common stock and warrants to purchase shares of restricted common stock. Since our shares are thinly traded in the open market, the fair value of our equity instruments was estimated by management based on observations of the cash sales prices of both restricted shares and freely tradable shares. The fair values of warrants were computed using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. |
