Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below.
  
Basis of Presentation - The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
   
Principals of Consolidation – These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AntriaBio, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
   
Development Stage - The Company's financial statements are presented as those of a development stage enterprise. Activities during the development stage primarily include equity and debt based financing and the development of the business plan.
 
Accounting Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions impact, among others, the following: estimated useful lives and potential impairment of intangible assets, the fair value of share-based payments, estimates of the probability and potential magnitude of contingent liabilities and the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets due to continuing and expected future operating losses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Risks and Uncertainties - The Company's operations may be subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, regulatory and other risks associated with a development stage company, including the potential risk of business failure. See above regarding change in business and see Note 3 regarding going concern matters.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents - In the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. 
 
Note Receivable – Related Party Notes receivable represent amounts due to the Company, and are recorded at cost less an allowance for note losses, if necessary.
 
Deferred Finance Costs - Direct, incremental finance costs related to the convertible notes payables are amortized over the term of the respective instrument through charges to interest expense using the effective interest method. Net deferred financing cost were $146,037, $76,507 and $51,028 as of June 30, 2013, and 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, which is net of accumulated amortization of $362,088, $82,793 and $23,972 as of June 30, 2013 and 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. All deferred finance costs will amortize in 2014.
  
Fixed Assets - Fixed assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives. The fixed assets have not been placed in service as of June 30, 2013 and are therefore have not begun depreciating.
 
Intangible Assets – Costs of establishing patents, consisting of legal and filing fees paid to third parties, are expensed as incurred. The value of the current intangible asset is based on the asset values assigned in the asset acquisition discussed in Note 5. The intangible assets are being amortized over 11 years which is the remaining life of the patents acquired.
 
Due from Related Parties - Due from related parties represent obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers, have been paid for on behalf of a related party, and are classified as a current receivable if payment is due within one year or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If not, they are presented as non-current assets.
 
Convertible Notes Payable - Borrowings are recognized initially at the principal amount received. Borrowings are subsequently carried at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognized as interest expense in the statements of operation over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
 
Beneficial Conversion Feature of Convertible Notes Payable - The Company accounts for convertible notes payable in accordance with the guidelines established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") 98-5, Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios, and EITF 00-27, Application of Issue No 98-5 To Certain Convertible Instruments. The Beneficial Conversion Feature ("BCF") of a convertible note is normally characterized as the convertible portion or feature of certain notes payable that provide a rate of conversion that is below market value or in-the-money when issued. The Company records a BCF related to the issuance of a convertible note when issued and also records the estimated fair value of any warrants issued with those convertible notes. Beneficial conversion features that are contingent upon the occurrence of a future event are recorded when the contingency is resolved.
 
The BCF of a convertible note is measured by allocating a portion of the note's proceeds to the warrants, if applicable, and as a reduction of the carrying amount of the convertible note equal to the intrinsic value of the conversion feature, both of which are credited to additional paid-in-capital. The Company calculates the fair value of warrants issued with the convertible note using the Black Scholes valuation model and uses the same assumptions for valuing any employee options in accordance with ASC Topic 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation. The only difference is that the contractual life of the warrants is used.
 
The value of the proceeds received from a convertible note is then allocated between the conversion features and warrants on a relative fair value basis. The allocated fair value is recorded in the financial statements as a debt discount (premium) from the face amount of the note and such discount is amortized over the expected term of the convertible note (or to the conversion date of the note, if sooner) and is charged to interest expense using the effective interest method.
 
Revenue – The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. We consider revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the product has been shipped or the services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collection is reasonably assured.
 
Operating Expenses - Expenses necessary to generate revenue are expensed in the period incurred.
   
Income Taxes – On July 14, 2011, Antria Delaware converted from a limited liability company to a C-corporation. As a limited liability company for federal and state income tax purposes, Antria Delaware’s earnings and losses are passed directly through to its members and included in the personal tax returns of its members. Accordingly, the statements of operations do not include any provision for income taxes for the period from March 24, 2010 (inception) through July 14, 2011.
 
After July 14, 2011, the Company accounts for income taxes under an asset and liability approach. This process involves calculating the temporary and permanent differences between the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The temporary differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which would be recorded on the Company’s balance sheets in accordance with ASC 740, which established financial accounting and reporting standards for the effect of income taxes. The Company must assess the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and, to the extent the Company believes that recovery is not likely, the Company must establish a valuation allowance. Changes in the Company’s valuation allowance in a period are recorded through the income tax provision on the statements of operations.
 
ASC 740 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Additionally, ASC 740 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As a result of the implementation of ASC 740, the Company recognized no material adjustment in the liability for unrecognized income tax benefits. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, as a component of income tax expense. There were no interest or penalties recorded or accrued at June 30, 2013 or 2012. Similarly, as of June30, 2013, the Company has no uncertain tax positions. The Company is still subject to income tax examinations for all federal and Colorado taxes since inception.
   
Segment Reporting Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker. The chief operating decision-maker, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer and the board of directors that makes strategic decisions. The Company operates one segment.
 
Comprehensive Income (Loss) Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as all changes in stockholder’s equity from transactions and other events and circumstances. Therefore, comprehensive income (loss) includes our net loss and all charges and credits made directly to stockholder’s equity other than stockholders contributions and distributions. As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company has no items other than net loss affecting comprehensive loss.
 
Income (Loss) Per Common Share Basic income (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) available to the common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during that period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated on the treasury stock method, by dividing income available to common shareholders, adjusted for the effects of dilutive convertible securities, by the weighted average number of shares of common shares outstanding during the period and all additional common shares that would have been outstanding had all potential dilutive common shares been issued.
 
Although there were common stock equivalents of 10,172,431 shares outstanding at June 30, 2013, consisting of stock options; warrants and convertible notes with a fixed conversion price; they were not included in the calculation of earnings per share because they would have been anti-dilutive.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments - From inception, the Company adopted ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which provides a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The standard also expands disclosures about instruments measured at fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
 
·
Level 1: Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets;
·
Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and
·
Level 3: Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
 
The carrying amounts of financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable – related party, due from related parties, and notes payable approximated fair value as of June 30, 2013 and 2012 and December 31, 2011 due to the relatively short maturity of the respective instruments.
 
The warrant derivative liability recorded as of June 30, 2013 is recorded at an estimated fair value based on a Black-Scholes pricing model. The warrant derivative liability is a level 3 fair value instrument with the entire change in the balance recorded through earnings. See significant assumptions in Note 9.
 
Reclassifications Certain amounts reported in prior years in the Consolidated Financial Statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.
 
Subsequent Events – The Company has considered subsequent events through the date of issuance of this Report on Form 10-K, and has determined no additional disclosure is necessary.
