NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June
30, 2020
(Unaudited)
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,
2019 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, 2019.
The
unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, 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 six months ended June 30, 2020 and
2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year.
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 of $586,020 for the six months ended June 30,
2020 and has not generated sufficient positive cash flows from operations. As of June 30, 2020 the Company had a working capital
deficiency of $634,822, excluding related party liabilities of $1,505,100. 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 $304,699, which has a maturity date of December 31, 2020, 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, 2020 will be
available. However, the Company believes it may not have sufficient cash to meet its various cash needs through August 31, 2021
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.

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 accounts, 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, other than as disclosed above,
such 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.
Discontinued
Operations
In
accordance with ASU No. 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, a
disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported as discontinued operations
if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial
results when the components of an entity meets the criteria in paragraph 205-20-45-1E to be classified as held for sale. When
all of the criteria to be classified as held for sale are met, including management, having the authority to approve the action,
commits to a plan to sell the entity, the major current assets, other assets, current liabilities, and noncurrent liabilities
shall be reported as components of total assets and liabilities separate from those balances of the continuing operations. At
the same time, the results of all discontinued operations (which we presented as operations to be disposed and operations disposed),
less applicable income taxes (benefit), shall be reported as components of net income (loss) separate from the net income (loss)
of continuing operations in accordance with ASC 205-20-45.
Leases
The
Company has one leased building in Boca Raton, Florida that is classified as operating lease right-of use (“ROU”)
assets and operating lease liabilities in the Company’s unaudited consolidated balance sheet as per ASC 842. ROU assets
and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the
commencement date for leases exceeding 12 months. Minimum lease payments include only the fixed lease component of the agreement.
Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in cost of Selling, General
and Administrative expenses.
The
standard was effective for us beginning January 1, 2019. The Company elected the available practical expedients on adoption. The
adoption had a material impact on our unaudited consolidated balance sheets, but did not have a material impact on our unaudited
consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The most significant impact was the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities
for operating leases.
Net
Loss Per Share
Basic
net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net 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. No dilution adjustment has been made to the weighted average outstanding
common shares in the periods presented because the assumed exercise of outstanding options and warrants and the conversion of
preferred stock and debt would be anti-dilutive.
The
following table sets forth the potential shares of common stock that are not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per
share:

Covid-19
In
December 2019, an outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) originated in Wuhan, China, and has since spread to a number
of other countries, including the United States. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a
pandemic. In addition, as of the time of the filing of this Form 10-Q, several states in the United States remain in states of
emergency, and travel restrictions continue to be applied in several countries around the world, including the United States.
Vycor Medical experienced a reduction in demand during the six months ended June 30, 2020 in the US and Internationally. Although
neurosurgery is not considered an elective procedure, general hospital dislocation and diversion of resources away from non-emergency
surgeries, or surgeries that can be postponed for a short period without harm, has impacted our revenues during the six months
ended June 30, 2020 and could continue to do so. In addition, sales and marketing efforts by Vycor’s representatives have
been disrupted or curtailed due to lockdown and social distancing, and this has and may continue to hinder the recovery of revenues.
While our operations are principally located in the United States, and our sub-contract manufacturers are located in the United
States, we participate in a global supply chain, and the existence of a worldwide pandemic, the fear associated with COVID-19,
or any, pandemic, and the reactions of governments around the world in response to COVID-19, or any, pandemic, to regulate the
flow of labor and products and impede the travel of personnel, may impact our ability to conduct normal business operations, which
could adversely affect our results of operations and liquidity. Disruptions to our supply chain and business operations, or to
our suppliers’ or customers’ supply chains and business operations, could include disruptions from the closure of
supplier and manufacturer facilities, interruptions in the supply of raw materials and components, personnel absences, or restrictions
on the shipment of our or our suppliers’ or customers’ products, any of which could have adverse ripple effects on
our manufacturing output and delivery schedule. Although we have implemented business continuity plans for our offices and personnel
to enable continuity of service remotely, if a critical number of our employees become too ill to work, or we are not able to
access a sufficient quantity of our inventory for shipment due to enforced office closures, our production ability could be materially
adversely affected in a rapid manner. Similarly, if our customers experience adverse business consequences due to COVID-19, or
any other, pandemic, demand for our products could also be materially adversely affected in a rapid manner. Global health concerns,
such as COVID-19, could also result in social, economic, and labor instability in the countries and localities in which we or
our suppliers and customers operate. Any of these uncertainties could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition or results of operations.

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; in June 2020 Vycor announced that it would be entering into
a license agreement and transition agreement (the “Agreements”) with HelferApp GmbH, a cognitive therapy specialist.
Under the Agreements, HelferApp will be licensed to provide NovaVision’s products and therapies in Germany, Austria and
Switzerland to patients and professionals; and will assume responsibility for the current patients of NovaVision in the territory.
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.

to $28, 534 and from $70,030 to $38,225, respectively, is primarily due to a reduction in Selling, general and administrative
expenses as a result of the wind-down of operations in Germany.

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 2,879,521 shares of Common Stock as of June 30, 2020. 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. In addition, the Company agreed to issue
warrants to purchase 2,308,405 shares of Common Stock at $0.27, the same terms as the 2018 Offering, exercisable for three years
from January 1, 2018, if and when the conversion option is exercised. 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.
The
Company leases office space located at 951 Broken Sound Parkway, Suite 320, Boca Raton, FL 33487 from WPT Land 2 L.P., for a gross
rent of approximately $5,700 plus sales tax per month that will expire on September 30, 2020. Based on the original lease agreement,
the Company has the one-time option to renew the lease for another three years with minimum annual rent at market price, not less
than the original lease payment amount. In January 2020, the Company exercised the option to extend the original lease for another
three years with the expiration date of August 31, 2023. In accordance with ASC 842-10-35, the Company considered this lease extension
as the modification of the original lease and re-measured the lease liability and the right-of-use assets on the commencement
date of the lease extension.
The
Company recognized the following in its unaudited consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

SHARE-BASED
COMPENSATION
|
Stock
Option Plan
Under
ASC Topic 718, the Company estimates the fair value of option awards on the date of grant using an option pricing model. The grant
date fair value is recognized over the option-vesting period, the period during which an employee is required to provide service
in exchange for the award. No compensation cost is recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the requisite
service. Under these standards, compensation cost for employee cost for employee stock-based awards is based on the estimated
grant-date fair value and recognized over the vesting period of the applicable award on a straight-line basis.
For
each of the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized share-based compensation of $0 for employee stock
options.
Stock
appreciation rights may be granted either on a stand-alone basis or in conjunction with all or part of any other stock options
granted under the plan. As of June 30, 2020 there were no awards of any stock appreciation rights.
Non-Employee
Stock 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”. 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.
Aggregate
stock-based compensation for stock granted to non-employees for each of the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $266,699.
The expense related to stock not issued during each of the periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 comprises $42,000, related to
stock granted but not issued to directors under the Directors Deferred Compensation Plan. As of June 30, 2020, there was $0 of
total unrecognized compensation costs related to warrant and stock awards and non-vested options.
Stock-based
Compensation Valuation Methodology
Stock-based
compensation resulting from the issuance of Common Stock is calculated by reference to the valuation of the Stock on the date
of issuance, the expense being recognized as the compensation is earned. Stock-based compensation expenses related to employee
options and warrants granted to non-employees are recognized as the stock options and warrants are earned. The fair value of the
stock options or warrants granted is estimated at the grant date, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and the expense
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. The grant date fair value of employee share options and similar instruments is estimated using the Black-Scholes
option pricing model on the basis of the fair value of the underlying common stock on the measurement date, adjusted for the unique
characteristics of those equity instruments, using the assumptions noted in the table below. Expected volatility is based on the
historical volatility of a peer group of publicly traded companies. The expected term of options and warrants was based upon the
expected life of the option or warrant, and the risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury Constant Maturity rate.
There
were no options or warrants issued during either of the periods ending June 30, 2020 and 2019.

COMMITMENTS
AND CONTINGENCIES

Lease
The
Company leases office space located at 951 Broken Sound Parkway, Suite 320, Boca Raton, FL 33487 from WPT Land 2 L.P., for a gross
rent of approximately $5,700 plus sales tax per month. The lease terminates September 30, 2020 and has been extended for a further
three years to August 31, 2023. The Company’s subsidiary in Germany occupied premises on a rolling 12 month lease agreement
with a 3 month notice period of EUR1,650 per month (approximately $1,815), which was terminated effective June 30, 2020. Rent
expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 for the continuing operations was $39,349 and $38,139 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 six months ended June 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019
respectively.
