Financial and corporate highlights for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2020 include the following:
David Evans, Ph.D., Guardion’s interim President and Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Science Officer, commented, “As we continue to develop our investment into clinical research to build strong differentiated brand claims, we are entering the commercial phase of our business development process. Despite a challenging environment with the COVID-19 pandemic, which has slowed our progress both in terms of connecting directly with doctors and consumers, as well as conducting day-to-day business, sales continue to be up year-over-year. Over the course of this pandemic, it has become increasingly clear that there are multiple business opportunities for Guardion to explore, including enhancing our digital distribution channels and e-commerce platform and expanding our international distribution opportunities. In addition, we are working closely with CFA to identify and evaluate strategic transactions and opportunities to enhance shareholder value.”
Dr. Evans concluded, “We continue to receive third party validation of our products, including recently published studies, in the journal Nutrients, showing superior efficacy of our proprietary formulation, Lumega-Z®, in terms of both absorption level and improvement in visual function, versus PreserVision®, the industry leading AREDS-2 gel cap product formulation. These results clearly support our brand messaging and offer an evidenced-based foundation to support our evolving product development strategies. We will continue our commitment to scientific and clinical validation of our proprietary products and to report on our results to our shareholders as this information occurs.”
Results of Annual Meeting of Shareholders and Nasdaq Delisting Issue
On October 29, 2020, the Company held its annual meeting of shareholders (the “Meeting”). At the Meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved all four proposals, including extending the discretionary authority previously granted to the Board of Directors to effect a “reverse stock split,” at a specific ratio within a range of no split and one-for-thirty (1-for-30), with the exact ratio to be determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion on or before October 29, 2021.
Since the Company does not intend to execute a reverse stock split prior to November 30, 2020, Guardion expects to receive a notice of delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) shortly after November 30, 2020 because the trading price of the Company’s common stock does not meet the $1.00 per share minimum bid price requirement.
The Company intends to appeal any notice of delisting that Nasdaq issues after November 30, 2020 to request a further extension of time (not to exceed 180 days from the date of the notice of delisting) to regain compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement. Such temporary relief would allow the Company additional time to execute on its business initiatives to generate greater shareholder value, which the Company hopes would then be reflected by an increase in the price of the Company’s common stock. During the appeal process, the Company’s common stock will continue to be listed on Nasdaq.
A permanent delisting from Nasdaq could adversely impact the liquidity of the Company’s common stock and limit the ability of the Company to raise additional capital in the future.
Financial Results
Three Months Ended September 30, 2020
Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2020 increased by approximately 57% to approximately $253,000, as compared total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2019 of approximately $161,000, primarily due to increased sales of medical foods and nutraceuticals and medical devices in the current period.
Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2020 decreased by approximately 8% to approximately $2,291,000 as compared to operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2019 of approximately $2,503,000, primarily due to a decrease in selling and marketing expenses in the current period.
Operating loss for the three months ended September 30, 2020 decreased by approximately $260,000 to approximately ($2,152,000), as compared to the operating loss for the three months ended September 30, 2019 of approximately ($2,412,000). Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was approximately ($2,143,000), or ($0.02) per share, as compared to a net loss of approximately ($2,385,000), or ($0.07) per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2019.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020

This increase was primarily due to a large initial test order of a nutraceutical product placed by the Company’s Malaysian distributor of $890,000 that was recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and increased sales of medical food product lines, partially offset by a decrease in medical device sales which were affected by the impact of COVID-19 closures during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Operating loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 decreased by approximately $1,214,000 to approximately ($5,196,000), as compared to the operating loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 of approximately ($6,410,000). Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was approximately ($5,198,000), or ($0.06) per share, as compared to a net loss of approximately ($6,823,000), or ($0.26) per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.
