NOTE 11 – CONCENTRATIONS

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade accounts receivable and cash deposits. The Company places its cash in banks at levels that, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. On September 30, 2023, the Company had cash in bank in excess of FDIC insured levels of $814,353. To reduce its risk associated with the failure of such financial institution, the Company evaluates at least annually the rating of the financial institution in which it holds deposits. Any material loss that the Company may experience in the future could have an adverse effect on its ability to pay its operational expenses or make other payments and may require the Company to move its cash to other high quality financial institutions. The Company reviews its bank relationships in order to mitigate its risk to ensure that its exposure is limited or reduced to the FDIC protection limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through September 30, 2023.

Geographic Concentrations of Sales

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, all sales were in the United States.

Customer Concentrations

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, one customer accounted for approximately 12.9% of total sales. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, one customer accounted for 10% of total sales. On September 30, 2023, three customers accounted for 63.9% (25.5%, 10.3% and 28.1%, respectively) of the total accounts receivable balance. On December 31, 2022, three customers accounted for 41.1% (10.3%, 19.3% and 11.5%, respectively) of the total accounts receivable balance.

Vendor concentrations

Generally, the Company purchases substantially all of its inventory from five suppliers. The loss of these suppliers may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition. However, the Company believes that, if necessary, alternate vendors could supply similar products in adequate quantities to avoid material disruptions to operations.
