VYCOR MEDICAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2023

(Unaudited)

 

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Vycor Medical, Inc. (the “Company” or “Vycor”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Commission. In accordance with those rules and regulations certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 derives from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. Certain prior period amounts on the unaudited consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

 

Ability to continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses since its inception, including a net loss available to common stockholders of $301,006 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and since inception has not generated sufficient positive cash flows from operations, although did generate positive cash flows from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. As of September 30, 2023 the Company had a working capital deficiency of $458,274, excluding related party liabilities of $2,947,050. These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

The Company is executing on a plan to achieve a reduction in cash operating losses. Included within the working capital deficiency above is a term note for $300,000 to EuroAmerican Investment Corp. (“EuroAmerican”), together with accrued interest of $460,798 which has a maturity date of December 31, 2023, having been extended on a number of occasions from its initial due date of June 11, 2011. At this time, it is not known whether any further extension of the note beyond December 31, 2023 will be available. However, the Company believes it may not have sufficient cash to meet its various cash needs through November 30, 2024 unless the Company is able to obtain additional cash from the issuance of debt or equity securities. Fountainhead Capital Management Limited (“Fountainhead”), the Company’s largest shareholder, has provided working capital funding to the Company on an as-needed basis, although there is no guarantee that this will continue to be the case. The Company may consider seeking additional equity or debt funding, although there is no assurance that this would be available on acceptable terms or at all. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may have to delay or curtail development or commercialization of products, or cease some of its operations.

 

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Vycor Medical, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, NovaVision, Inc. (a Delaware corporation), NovaVision GmbH (a German corporation) and Sight Science Limited (a UK corporation), both wholly owned subsidiaries of NovaVision, Inc. The Company is headquartered in Boca Raton, FL. All material inter-company account balances, transactions, and profits have been eliminated in consolidation. Following the decision in April 2020 to close the German office of NovaVision, the activities of NovaVision GmbH have been accounted for as discontinued operations.

 

7

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

From time-to-time new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard setting bodies that may have an impact on the Company’s accounting and reporting. The Company believes that recently issued accounting pronouncements and other authoritative guidance for which the effective date is in the future will not have an impact on its accounting or reporting or that such impact will not be material to its financial position, results of operations and cash flows when implemented.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new accounting standard, ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all the related amendments (new revenue standard) to all contracts. The adoption of the new accounting standard had no impact on company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Vycor Medical generates revenue from the sale of its surgical access system to hospitals and other medical professionals. Vycor Medical records revenue from product sales when obligations under the terms of a contract with customers are satisfied. Generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of the goods to customers. Vycor Medical does not provide for product returns or warranty costs.

 

Vycor determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

 

	●	Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer
	●	Identification of the performance obligations in the contract
	●	Determination of the transaction price
	●	Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
	●	Recognition of revenue when Vycor satisfy a performance obligation

 

NovaVision generates revenues from various programs, therapy services and other sources such as software license sales. Therapy services revenues represent fees from NovaVision’s vision restoration therapy software, eye movement training software, diagnostic software, clinic set up and training fees, and the professional and support services associated with the therapy. NovaVision provides vision restoration therapy directly to patients. The typical therapy program consists of NeuroEyeCoach, performed over 2-4 weeks, and six modules of Vision Restoration Therapy, performed over 6 months. A patient contract comprises set-up fees and monthly therapy fees. Set-up fees are recognized at the outset of the contract and therapy revenue is recognized ratably over the therapy period. Patient therapy is restricted to being completed by a patient within a specified time frame.

 

Deferred revenue results from patients paying for the therapy in advance of receiving the therapy.

 

The Company disaggregates its revenue by division – Vycor and NovaVision – and by geography – United States and Europe – and presents the disaggregation in Note 6.

 

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares consist of incremental shares issuable upon exercise of stock options and warrants and conversion of preferred stock and convertible debt. Such potentially dilutive shares are excluded when the effect would be to reduce a net loss per share.

 

8

 

The following table sets forth the potential shares of common stock that are included in the calculation of diluted net income per share where a net income is reported:

 

		September 30, 2023				September 30, 2022
Debentures convertible into common stock			3,622,848				3,394,276
Preferred shares convertible into common stock			1,272,052				1,272,052
Total			4,894,900				4,666,328

 

3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

 

In April 2020, the board of Vycor took the decision to close the German operations of NovaVision, including the German office and NovaVision GmbH, and instead migrate to a licensed business model; effective July 1, 2020 ,Vycor entered into a license agreement with a German-based partner. The NovaVision German office was closed effective June 30, 2020. The Company will continue to fund the remaining expenses of the German operations, which are non-material, until such a time as NovaVision GmbH will be formally wound up.

 

Reconciliation of the major line items from discontinued operations that are presented in the unaudited consolidated balance sheets and unaudited consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) are as follows:

In January 2018 the Company entered into an amendment agreement (the “Amendment”) with EuroAmerican Investments (“EuroAmerican”) regarding its $300,000 loan note (the “Note”). Under the Amendment, the Note was extended and the conversion terms of the Note were reduced to $0.21, the same as the offering price of the 2018 Offering. Conversion of the Note and accrued interest would result in the issuance of 3,622,848 shares of Common Stock as of September 30, 2023. Notwithstanding, EuroAmerican agreed that the Note could not be converted without first offering the Company the right to redeem the Note at principal and accrued interest, and secondly Fountainhead the right to purchase the Note, which cannot be converted prior to such offer and the failure of the Company and Fountainhead to exercise such option in accordance with the amendment terms. The amendment was recognized as a modification, based on the guidance in ASC 470-50.

 

The Company routinely finances all their insurance policies through a third-party finance company which requires a down payment and subsequent monthly payments, the time periods vary from 10 months to 12 equal monthly payments.

Potential German tax liability

 

In June 2012 the Company’s NovaVision German subsidiary received a preliminary assessment for Magdeburg City trade tax of €75,000 (approximately $82,000), with an additional interest charge of €12,000 (approximately $13,200). This assessment is for the 2010 fiscal year and relates to the Company’s acquisition of the assets of the former NovaVision, Inc. An initial assessment for corporate tax for the same period was preliminarily reduced to zero. The Company did not accept this trade tax assessment and appealed against it to the relevant tax authorities with a view to its reduction. The relevant tax authorities agreed to suspend the assessment pending the outcome of certain court hearings and proposed tax legislation, and the Company agreed to make monthly payments on account totaling €75,000 (approximately $82,000) which were completed in October 2016 and fully expensed. At that time the Company appealed against the interest charge of €12,000 (approximately $13,200) which the tax authorities did not accept but also agreed to suspend pending the outcome of the hearings and proposed legislation outlined above. Accordingly, the Company has made no provision for this liability in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022 respectively. The Company is in the process of winding down the entity, as disclosed in Note 3.

1. Organizational History

 

The Company was formed as a limited liability company under the laws of the State of New York on June 17, 2005 as “Vycor Medical LLC”. On August 14, 2007, we converted into a Delaware corporation and changed our name to “Vycor Medical, Inc.” (“Vycor”). The Company’s listing went effective on February 2009 and on November 29, 2010 Vycor completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of NovaVision, Inc. (“NovaVision”) and on January 4, 2012 Vycor, through its wholly-owned NovaVision subsidiary, completed the acquisition of all the shares of Sight Science Limited (“Sight Science”), a previous competitor to NovaVision.

 

2. Overview of Business

 

Vycor is dedicated to providing the medical community with innovative and superior surgical and therapeutic solutions and operates two distinct business units within the medical device industry. Vycor Medical designs, develops and markets medical devices for use in neurosurgery. NovaVision provides non-invasive rehabilitation therapies for those who have vision disorders resulting from neurological brain damage such as that caused by a stroke. Both businesses adopt a minimally or non-invasive approach. The Company has 56 issued or allowed patents and a further 11 pending. The Company leverages joint resources across the divisions to operate in a cost-efficient manner.

 

The Company periodically engages in discussions with potential strategic partners for or purchasers of each or both of our operating divisions. In April 2020, the board of Vycor took the decision to close the German operations of NovaVision, including the German office and NovaVision GmbH, and instead migrate to a licensed business model, entering into a license agreement with a local German partner. Under the agreement, the partner is licensed to provide NovaVision’s products and therapies in Germany, Austria and Switzerland to patients and professionals. The NovaVision German office was closed effective June 30, 2020.

 

17

 

Vycor Medical

 

Vycor Medical designs, develops and markets medical devices for use in neurosurgery. Vycor Medical’s ViewSite Brain Access System (“VBAS”) is a next generation retraction and access system. Vycor Medical is ISO 13485:2016 and MDSAP (Medical Device Single Audit Program) certified, and VBAS has U.S. FDA 510(k) clearance and CE Marking for Europe (Class III) for brain and spine surgeries, and regulatory approvals in a number of other international markets. Vycor Medical has 38 granted and 11 pending patents.

 

NovaVision

 

NovaVision provides non-invasive, computer-based rehabilitation therapies targeted at people who have impaired vision as a result of stroke or other brain injury and has 18 granted patents.

 

Strategy

 

The Company is continuing to execute on a plan to achieve revenue growth and a reduction in annual cash operating losses¹, and generated cash operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. For Vycor Medical this plan includes: increasing market penetration in the US; increasing international growth in territories where we are not represented or under-represented and continued new product development in response to market demands and demonstrating applicability in a broader range of pathologies. In the US the Company is focused on increasing market penetration through targeting neurosurgeons systematically, both through its distribution and marketing network and also directly by leveraging existing key opinion leader (“KOL”) neurosurgeon VBAS supporters to access new neurosurgeon users.

 

The Company has for some time been working to better integrate its VBAS with neuronavigation. The first phase of the modification of the existing VBAS product range was completed in September 2017 and was well received by surgeons. The second phase involved the introduction of an optional Alignment Clip accessory that snaps onto the VBAS and allows for a neuronavigation pointer to be fully integrated into the body of the VBAS; this new model range, known as the VBAS AC, was launched in September 2022, with the international roll-out being complete by the end of 2023. The Company will continue to work with neuronavigation companies to seek ways to further integrate the VBAS with neuronavigation and with other companies with complementary technologies used in neurosurgery. We will also be exploring with neurosurgeons and focus groups additional selected development work targeted at increasing the ease and applicability of our products to additional common procedures.

 

For NovaVision, given the company’s resources, and the large size and diversity of its end markets, we believe that the most efficient way to tackle the distribution of its broad range of patient and professional products is by partnering with entities in selected geographies that have either direct access to the end users or a desire and financial wherewithal to leverage the NovaVision therapy platform, including into new areas. As a result, the Company closed the NovaVision German office and entered into a license agreement with a local German for Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Management is also open to a broad range of alternatives for NovaVision as a whole, which could comprise distribution and marketing partnerships, licensing, merger or sale.

The net repayment of normal insurance financing should also be taken into account when considering cash provided by (used in) operating activities.

 

The following table shows the principal components of cash provided by (used in) operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, with a commentary of changes during the periods and known or anticipated future changes:

 

		September 30, 2023				September 30, 2022				$ Change

Cash provided by (used in) operating activities, adjusted for net insurance repayments		$	35,500			$	(165,270	)		$	200,770

 

20

 

The adjustments to reconcile net income (loss) to cash of $53,427 in the period have no impact on liquidity, and the change in net income (loss) of $120,346 is due to the increase in Vycor sales, as is the change in accounts receivable of $44,600.

 

Additional inventory of $37,118 was purchased during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as part of normal production, and the Company anticipates purchasing additional new inventory of approximately $60,000 during the next twelve months.

 

Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $3,482 and consisted of the purchase of chin rests for patients in NovaVision.

 

Financing Activities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 the Company paid down insurance of $11,578.

 

Liquidity and Plan of Operations, Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses since its inception, including a net loss available to common stockholders of $301,006 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and since inception has not generated sufficient positive cash flows from operations, although did generate positive cash flows from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. As of September 30, 2023 the Company had a working capital deficiency of $458,274, excluding related party liabilities of $2,947,050. These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

As described earlier in this ITEM 2 “Strategy”, the Company is executing on a plan to achieve a reduction in cash operating losses², and generated cash operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Included within the working capital deficiency above is a term note for $300,000 to EuroAmerican Investment Corp. (“EuroAmerican”), together with accrued interest of $460,798, which has a maturity date of December 31, 2023, having been extended on a number of occasions from its initial due date of June 11, 2011. At this time, it is not known whether any further extension of the note beyond December 31, 2023 will be available. However, the Company believes it may not have sufficient cash to meet its various cash needs through November 30, 2024 unless the Company is able to obtain additional cash from the issuance of debt or equity securities. Fountainhead, the Company’s largest shareholder, has provided working capital funding to the Company on an as-needed basis, although there is no guarantee that this will continue to be the case. The Company may consider seeking additional equity or debt funding, although there is no assurance that this would be available on acceptable terms or at all. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may have to delay or curtail development or commercialization of products or cease some of its operations.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Not applicable

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We are required to maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer (also our principal executive officer) and our chief financial officer (also our principal financial and accounting officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

The Company’s management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), have evaluated the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and our CFO have concluded that a material weakness occurred as of April 1, 2021 with the resignation of the independent members of the Company’s Audit Committee as of that date. Effective that date, our disclosure and controls were no longer effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports its files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its CEO and its CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

The matter involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were a lack of a functioning audit committee with independent members, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures. This weakness occurred as of April 1, 2021 due to the resignation of the independent members of the Audit Committee from the Board of Directors effective as of April 1, 2021. As of November 13, 2023, this material weakness continues to exist.

 

Management believes that the material weakness set forth did not have an effect on our financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and the lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.

 

(b) Changes in Internal Controls

 

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal period to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

The Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and CFO, does not expect that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree or compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

PART II

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

We are subject from time to time to litigation, claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business. As of November 13, 2023, we were not a party to any material litigation, claim or suit whose outcome could have a material effect on our financial statements.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

 

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide information required by this Item.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
BASIS OF PRESENTATION	1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION   The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Vycor Medical, Inc. (the “Company” or “Vycor”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Commission. In accordance with those rules and regulations certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 derives from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.   The unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. Certain prior period amounts on the unaudited consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.   Ability to continue as a Going Concern   The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses since its inception, including a net loss available to common stockholders of $301,006 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and since inception has not generated sufficient positive cash flows from operations, although did generate positive cash flows from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. As of September 30, 2023 the Company had a working capital deficiency of $458,274, excluding related party liabilities of $2,947,050. These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.   The Company is executing on a plan to achieve a reduction in cash operating losses. Included within the working capital deficiency above is a term note for $300,000 to EuroAmerican Investment Corp. (“EuroAmerican”), together with accrued interest of $460,798 which has a maturity date of December 31, 2023, having been extended on a number of occasions from its initial due date of June 11, 2011. At this time, it is not known whether any further extension of the note beyond December 31, 2023 will be available. However, the Company believes it may not have sufficient cash to meet its various cash needs through November 30, 2024 unless the Company is able to obtain additional cash from the issuance of debt or equity securities. Fountainhead Capital Management Limited (“Fountainhead”), the Company’s largest shareholder, has provided working capital funding to the Company on an as-needed basis, although there is no guarantee that this will continue to be the case. The Company may consider seeking additional equity or debt funding, although there is no assurance that this would be available on acceptable terms or at all. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may have to delay or curtail development or commercialization of products, or cease some of its operations.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES   Principles of Consolidation   The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Vycor Medical, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, NovaVision, Inc. (a Delaware corporation), NovaVision GmbH (a German corporation) and Sight Science Limited (a UK corporation), both wholly owned subsidiaries of NovaVision, Inc. The Company is headquartered in Boca Raton, FL. All material inter-company account balances, transactions, and profits have been eliminated in consolidation. Following the decision in April 2020 to close the German office of NovaVision, the activities of NovaVision GmbH have been accounted for as discontinued operations.     Recent Accounting Pronouncements   From time-to-time new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard setting bodies that may have an impact on the Company’s accounting and reporting. The Company believes that recently issued accounting pronouncements and other authoritative guidance for which the effective date is in the future will not have an impact on its accounting or reporting or that such impact will not be material to its financial position, results of operations and cash flows when implemented.   Revenue Recognition   On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new accounting standard, ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all the related amendments (new revenue standard) to all contracts. The adoption of the new accounting standard had no impact on company’s consolidated financial statements.   Vycor Medical generates revenue from the sale of its surgical access system to hospitals and other medical professionals. Vycor Medical records revenue from product sales when obligations under the terms of a contract with customers are satisfied. Generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of the goods to customers. Vycor Medical does not provide for product returns or warranty costs.   Vycor determines revenue recognition through the following steps:     ● Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer         ● Identification of the performance obligations in the contract         ● Determination of the transaction price         ● Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract         ● Recognition of revenue when Vycor satisfy a performance obligation   NovaVision generates revenues from various programs, therapy services and other sources such as software license sales. Therapy services revenues represent fees from NovaVision’s vision restoration therapy software, eye movement training software, diagnostic software, clinic set up and training fees, and the professional and support services associated with the therapy. NovaVision provides vision restoration therapy directly to patients. The typical therapy program consists of NeuroEyeCoach, performed over 2-4 weeks, and six modules of Vision Restoration Therapy, performed over 6 months. A patient contract comprises set-up fees and monthly therapy fees. Set-up fees are recognized at the outset of the contract and therapy revenue is recognized ratably over the therapy period. Patient therapy is restricted to being completed by a patient within a specified time frame.   Deferred revenue results from patients paying for the therapy in advance of receiving the therapy.   The Company disaggregates its revenue by division – Vycor and NovaVision – and by geography – United States and Europe – and presents the disaggregation in Note 6.   Net Income (Loss) Per Share   Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares consist of incremental shares issuable upon exercise of stock options and warrants and conversion of preferred stock and convertible debt. Such potentially dilutive shares are excluded when the effect would be to reduce a net loss per share.     The following table sets forth the potential shares of common stock that are included in the calculation of diluted net income per share where a net income is reported:       September 30, 2023   September 30, 2022 Debentures convertible into common stock     3,622,848       3,394,276   Preferred shares convertible into common stock     1,272,052       1,272,052   Total     4,894,900       4,666,328

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS   In April 2020, the board of Vycor took the decision to close the German operations of NovaVision, including the German office and NovaVision GmbH, and instead migrate to a licensed business model; effective July 1, 2020 ,Vycor entered into a license agreement with a German-based partner. The NovaVision German office was closed effective June 30, 2020.

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION	8. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION   The Company from time-to-time issues common stock, stock options or common stock warrants to acquire services or goods from non-employees. Common stock, stock options and common stock warrants issued to other than employees or directors are recorded on the basis of their fair value, which is measured as of the “measurement date” using an option pricing model, or their contractual value if different in the case of common stock. The “measurement date” for options and warrants related to contracts that have substantial disincentives to non-performance is the date of the contract, and for all other contracts is the vesting date. Expense related to the options and warrants is recognized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the period over which services are to be received or the life of the option or warrant.   Non-Employee Stock Compensation   Aggregate stock-based compensation for stock granted to non-employees for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $7,777 and $187,381, respectively.

See Note 5.   Potential German tax liability   In June 2012 the Company’s NovaVision German subsidiary received a preliminary assessment for Magdeburg City trade tax of €75,000 (approximately $82,000), with an additional interest charge of €12,000 (approximately $13,200). This assessment is for the 2010 fiscal year and relates to the Company’s acquisition of the assets of the former NovaVision, Inc. An initial assessment for corporate tax for the same period was preliminarily reduced to zero. The Company did not accept this trade tax assessment and appealed against it to the relevant tax authorities with a view to its reduction. The relevant tax authorities agreed to suspend the assessment pending the outcome of certain court hearings and proposed tax legislation, and the Company agreed to make monthly payments on account totaling €75,000 (approximately $82,000) which were completed in October 2016 and fully expensed. At that time the Company appealed against the interest charge of €12,000 (approximately $13,200) which the tax authorities did not accept but also agreed to suspend pending the outcome of the hearings and proposed legislation outlined above. Accordingly, the Company has made no provision for this liability in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022 respectively.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation   The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Vycor Medical, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, NovaVision, Inc. (a Delaware corporation), NovaVision GmbH (a German corporation) and Sight Science Limited (a UK corporation), both wholly owned subsidiaries of NovaVision, Inc. The Company is headquartered in Boca Raton, FL. All material inter-company account balances, transactions, and profits have been eliminated in consolidation. Following the decision in April 2020 to close the German office of NovaVision, the activities of NovaVision GmbH have been accounted for as discontinued operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements   From time-to-time new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard setting bodies that may have an impact on the Company’s accounting and reporting. The Company believes that recently issued accounting pronouncements and other authoritative guidance for which the effective date is in the future will not have an impact on its accounting or reporting or that such impact will not be material to its financial position, results of operations and cash flows when implemented.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition   On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new accounting standard, ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all the related amendments (new revenue standard) to all contracts. The adoption of the new accounting standard had no impact on company’s consolidated financial statements.   Vycor Medical generates revenue from the sale of its surgical access system to hospitals and other medical professionals. Vycor Medical records revenue from product sales when obligations under the terms of a contract with customers are satisfied. Generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of the goods to customers. Vycor Medical does not provide for product returns or warranty costs.   Vycor determines revenue recognition through the following steps:     ● Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer         ● Identification of the performance obligations in the contract         ● Determination of the transaction price         ● Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract         ● Recognition of revenue when Vycor satisfy a performance obligation   NovaVision generates revenues from various programs, therapy services and other sources such as software license sales. Therapy services revenues represent fees from NovaVision’s vision restoration therapy software, eye movement training software, diagnostic software, clinic set up and training fees, and the professional and support services associated with the therapy. NovaVision provides vision restoration therapy directly to patients. The typical therapy program consists of NeuroEyeCoach, performed over 2-4 weeks, and six modules of Vision Restoration Therapy, performed over 6 months. A patient contract comprises set-up fees and monthly therapy fees. Set-up fees are recognized at the outset of the contract and therapy revenue is recognized ratably over the therapy period. Patient therapy is restricted to being completed by a patient within a specified time frame.   Deferred revenue results from patients paying for the therapy in advance of receiving the therapy.   The Company disaggregates its revenue by division – Vycor and NovaVision – and by geography – United States and Europe – and presents the disaggregation in Note 6.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share	Net Income (Loss) Per Share   Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares consist of incremental shares issuable upon exercise of stock options and warrants and conversion of preferred stock and convertible debt. Such potentially dilutive shares are excluded when the effect would be to reduce a net loss per share.     The following table sets forth the potential shares of common stock that are included in the calculation of diluted net income per share where a net income is reported:       September 30, 2023   September 30, 2022 Debentures convertible into common stock     3,622,848       3,394,276   Preferred shares convertible into common stock     1,272,052       1,272,052   Total     4,894,900       4,666,328
