NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying interim condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation are included. Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. While management of the Company believes the disclosures presented herein are adequate and not misleading, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited condensed consolidated financial statements and the footnotes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Significant accounting policies are as follows:
Principle of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FitLife Brands, Inc. and NDS Nutrition Products, Inc. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated condensed financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and (iii) the reported amount of net sales and expenses recognized during the periods presented. Adjustments made with respect to the use of estimates often relate to improved information not previously available. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of financial statements; accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates.
These estimates and assumptions also affect the reported amounts of revenues, costs and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is derived from product sales. The Company recognizes revenue from product sales in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 605 “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” which assesses revenue upon: (i) the time customers are invoiced at shipping point provided title and risk of loss has passed to the customer, (ii) evidence of an arrangement exists, (iii) fees are contractually fixed or determinable, (iv) collection is reasonably assured through historical collection results and regular credit evaluations, and (v) there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance.
Accounts Receivable
All of the Company’s accounts receivable balance is related to trade receivables. Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company will maintain allowances for doubtful accounts, estimating losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments for products. Accounts with known financial issues are first reviewed and specific estimates are recorded. The remaining accounts receivable balances are then grouped in categories by the amount of days the balance is past due, and the estimated loss is calculated as a percentage of the total category based upon past history. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when it is probable the receivable will not be recovered. The Company recorded a $300 contra-expense related to bad debt and doubtful accounts during the quarter ended March 31, 2014 in connection with the partial collection of accounts previously written off.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The determination of collectability of the Company’s accounts receivable requires management to make frequent judgments and estimates in order to determine the appropriate amount of allowance needed for doubtful accounts. The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts is estimated to cover the risk of loss related to accounts receivable. This allowance is maintained at a level we consider appropriate based on factors that affect collectability. These factors include historical trends of write-offs, recoveries and credit losses, the careful monitoring of customer credit quality, and projected economic and market conditions. Different assumptions or changes in economic circumstances could result in changes to the allowance.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At March 31, 2014, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in the bank.
Inventory
The Company’s inventory is carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. The Company evaluates the need to record adjustments for inventory on a regular basis. Company policy is to evaluate all inventories including raw material and finished goods for all of its product offerings across all of the Company’s operating subsidiaries. At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the value of the Company’s inventory was $1,926,002 and $2,752,636, respectively.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method. When items are retired or otherwise disposed of, income is charged or credited for the difference between net book value and proceeds realized. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and replacements and betterments are capitalized.
The range of estimated useful lives used to calculate depreciation for principal items of property and equipment are as follows:
|
Asset Category
|
Depreciation/Amortization Period
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“FASB”) ASC Topic 350 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. In accordance with ASC Topic 350, goodwill, which represents the excess of the purchase price and related costs over the value assigned to net tangible and identifiable intangible assets of businesses acquired and accounted for under the purchase method, acquired in business combinations is assigned to reporting units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination as of the acquisition date. Under this standard, goodwill and intangibles with indefinite useful lives are no longer amortized. The Company assesses goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually during the fourth quarter, or more frequently if events and circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred in accordance with ASC Topic 350. If the carrying value of a reporting unit's goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, the Company records an impairment loss equal to the difference. ASC Topic 350 also requires that the fair value of indefinite-lived purchased intangible assets be estimated and compared to the carrying value. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the estimated fair value of the indefinite-lived purchased intangible assets is less than the carrying value.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with ASC Topic 3605, “Long-Lived Assets,” such as property, plants, equipment, and purchased intangibles are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Goodwill and other intangible assets are tested for impairment. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount in which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. There were no events or changes in circumstances that necessitated an impairment of long-lived assets.
Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are provided based on the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48 – “Accounting For Uncertainty In Income Taxes”–an interpretation of ASC Topic 740 ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not, that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount, which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating the Company's tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments. At March 31, 2014, the Company did not record any liabilities for uncertain tax positions.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company maintains its operating cash balances at a large, commercial bank with offices across the country. The Federal Depository Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insures accounts up to $250,000.
Earnings Per Share
Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options, warrants, and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company. In the event of a loss, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share, because of the effect of the additional securities, a net loss would be anti-dilutive.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties other than in a forced sale or liquidation.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, income tax payable and related party payable, if any, approximate fair value.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $56,448 as compared to $58,791 for the three month period ended March 31, 2013.
NOTE 6 - INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
During the quarter ended March 31, 2014 the Company wrote off the remaining balance of its investment in YogaEarth Group LLC ("YogaEarth") and recorded a $50,000 expense in connection with the write off. Contemporaneously with the write off, FitLife, YogaEarth and other third parties (collectively, the "Parties") entered into a settlement agreement (the "Settlement") related to prior investment activity and intellectual property development initiatives undertaken by the Parties. Under the terms of the Settlement, YogaEarth agreed to sell its 50% ownership position in the kaniwa protein extraction intellectual property (the "IP") to the other Parties for the termination of certain equity rights and claims held by such parties in and against YogaEarth. Under the terms of the Settlement, FitLife issued the third parties common stock with a fair market value of $84,500 in exchange for the 37.5% of the IP owned by the third parties, resulting in the Company owning 100% of the IP. The Company booked the $220,000 implied value of the IP to intangible assets, net and recorded a gain on the transaction of $137,500. During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, the Company also filed a patent application with the USPTO for the IP.

NOTE 10 - NET INCOME / (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share also includes the weighted average number of outstanding warrants and options in the denominator. In the event of a loss, the diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share. The weighted average number of diluted shares of common stock outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2014 included 8,138,018 shares of common stock, 209,808 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding common stock purchase warrants, and 180,000 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options to purchase common stock. The following table represents the computation of basic and diluted income and (losses) per share for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

NOTE 11 - EQUITY
Common and Preferred Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 150,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value, of which 8,117,474 common shares were issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2014. The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value, none of which were issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2014. The Company is authorized to issue 1,000 shares of its 10% Cumulative Perpetual Series B Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value, none of which were issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2014. The Company is authorized to issue 500 shares of its Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01, none of which were issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2014.
As of March 31, 2014, 72,894 shares of common stock were subscribed.
As of March 31, 2014, 180,000 options to purchase common stock of the Company were issued and outstanding, 60,000 of which had an exercise price equal to $1.00 per share, and 120,000 of which had an exercise price equal to $0.90 per share.
Warrants
The Company values all warrants using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Critical assumptions for the Black-Scholes option-pricing model include the market value of the stock price at the time of issuance, the risk-free interest rate corresponding to the term of the warrant, the volatility of the Company’s stock price, dividend yield on the common stock, as well as the exercise price and term of the warrant. The Black Scholes option-pricing model was the best determinable value of the warrants that the Company “knew up front” when issuing the warrants in accordance with Topic 505. Other than as expressly noted below, the warrants are not subject to any form of vesting schedule and, therefore, are exercisable by the holders anytime at their discretion during the life of the warrant. No discounts were applied to the valuation determined by the Black-Scholes option-pricing model; provided, however, that in determining volatility the Company utilized the lesser of the 90-day volatility as reported by Bloomberg or other such nationally recognized provider of financial markets data and 40.0%.
As of March 31, 2014, 209,808 warrants to purchase common stock of the Company were issued and outstanding, additional information about which is included in the following table:

Private Placements, Other Issuances and Cancellations
The Company periodically issues shares of its common stock, as well as options and warrants to purchase shares of common stock to investors in connection with private placement transactions, and to advisors, consultants and employees for the fair value of services rendered. Absent an arm’s length transaction with an independent third-party, the value of any such issued shares is based on the trading value of the stock at the date on which such transactions or agreements are consummated. The Company expenses the fair value of all such issuances in the period incurred. During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, the Company issued 37,334 shares of common stock for services and recorded an expense of $86,335 for the fair value of services rendered.

The Company has a net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $20,325,000 for federal purposes available to offset future taxable income through 2032, which expire in various years through 2032, The Company has provided a valuation reserve against the full amount of the net operating loss benefit, because in the opinion of management the benefits from net operating losses carried forward may be impaired or limited on certain circumstances. Events which may cause limitations in the amount of net operating losses that the Company may utilize in any one year include, but are not limited to, limitations imposed under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, from change of more than 50% over a three-year period. The impact of any limitations that may be imposed for future issuances of equity securities, including issuances with respect to acquisitions have not been determined.
ASC 740 requires the consideration of a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets. Significant management judgment is required in determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. In evaluating the ability to recover deferred tax assets, the Company considered available positive and negative evidence, giving greater weight to its recent cumulative losses and its ability to carry-back losses against prior taxable income and lesser weight to its projected financial results due to the challenges of forecasting future periods. The Company also considered, commensurate with its objective verifiability, the forecast of future taxable income including the reversal of temporary differences. At that time the Company continued to have sufficient positive evidence, including recent cumulative profits, a reduction in operating expenses, the ability to carry-back losses against prior taxable income and an expectation of improving operating results, showing a valuation allowance was not required. At the end of the year ended December 31, 2013, changes in previously anticipated expectations and continued operating losses necessitated a valuation allowance against the tax benefits recognized in this quarter and prior quarters since they are no longer “more-likely-than-not” realizable. Under current tax laws, this valuation allowance will not limit the Company’s ability to utilize U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets provided it can generate sufficient future taxable income in the U.S.
NOTE 13 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In accordance with the Subsequent Events Topic of the FASB ASC 855, we have evaluated additional subsequent events, and have determined that no additional subsequent events are reasonably likely to impact the financial statements other than as set forth above.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Forward-Looking Statements
Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains various “forward looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, regarding future events or the future financial performance of the Company that involve risks and uncertainties. Certain statements included in this Form 10-Q, including, without limitation, statements related to anticipated cash flow sources and uses, and words including but not limited to “anticipates”, “believes”, “plans”, “expects”, “future” and similar statements or expressions, identify forward looking statements. Any forward-looking statements herein are subject to certain risks and uncertainties in the Company’s business, including but not limited to, reliance on key customers and competition in its markets, market demand, product performance, technological developments, maintenance of relationships with key suppliers, difficulties of hiring or retaining key personnel and any changes in current accounting rules, all of which may be beyond the control of the Company. The Company adopted at management’s discretion, the most conservative recognition of revenue based on the most astringent guidelines of the SEC. Management will elect additional changes to revenue recognition to comply with the most conservative SEC recognition on a forward going accrual basis as the model is replicated with other similar markets. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth therein.
Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors and risks that could affect our results and achievements and cause them to materially differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements include those identified in the section titled “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, as well as other factors that we are currently unable to identify or quantify, but that may exist in the future.
In addition, the foregoing factors may affect generally our business, results of operations and financial position. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date the statement was made. We do not undertake and specifically decline any obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
Overview
FitLife Brands, Inc., formerly Bond Laboratories, Inc. (the “Company”), is a national provider of innovative and proprietary nutritional supplements for health conscious consumers marketed under the brand names NDS Nutrition Products™ (“NDS”) (www.ndsnutrition.com), PMD™ (www.pmdsports.com), SirenLabs™ (www.sirenlabs.com) and CoreActive™ (www.coreactivenutrition.com). The Company manufactures and distributes a full line of nutritional supplements to support athletic performance, weight loss and general health predominantly through franchised General Nutrition Centers, Inc. (“GNC”) stores located both domestically and internationally.
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on July 26, 2005. In October 2008, the Company acquired the assets of NDS Nutritional Products, Inc., a Nebraska corporation, and moved those assets into its wholly owned subsidiary NDS Nutrition Products, Inc., a Florida corporation (“NDS”).
FitLife Brands is headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska. For more information on the Company, please go to http://www.fitlifebrands.com. The Company’s common stock currently trades under the symbol FTLF on the OTCBB market.
Results of Operations
Net Sales. Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2014 increased to $6,333,076 as compared to $6,061,141 for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The 4.5% increase was driven by strong domestic demand particularly during latter part of the quarter. The Company’s sales during the period ended March 31, 2014 were also impacted by an inventory build-up by some of our customers in advance of our planned transition to GNC’s centralized distribution platform, which went into effect May 1, 2014. Management believes that the impact from these changes is short-term in nature and will not affect revenue beyond the quarter ended June 30, 2014.
We currently market approximately 50 products to over 1,100 GNC franchise locations both domestic and international. The Company continually seeks to increase both the number of stores and number of approved products that comprise its domestic and international distribution footprint and, while no assurances can be given, we anticipate that such efforts will continue to drive future revenue growth. While currently not a material component of revenue, management anticipates that continued international expansion will be a major driver of future growth.
Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2014 increased to $3,976,400 as compared to $3,791,233 for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The increase during the three-month period was primarily attributable to increased sales volume during the respective periods. While the Company is still evaluating the impact the transition to the new distribution platform may have on our overall cost structure, management anticipates that any cost increases related to the new distribution platform will be mitigated, if not entirely offset, by operating efficiencies associated with the transition. Management will continue to evaluate and respond accordingly going forward.
General and Administrative Expense. General and administrative expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 decreased to $805,228 as compared to $997,743 for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The decrease in general and administrative expense for the period was primarily attributable to lower personnel costs.
Selling and Marketing Expense. Selling and marketing expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 decreased to $568,366, as compared to $610,089 for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The decrease in selling and marketing expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2014 is principally attributable to lower costs related to sample packs. As net sales increase, selling and marketing expense is anticipated to simultaneously increase, although management anticipates that selling and marketing expense will increase at a lower rate.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2014 decreased to $56,448 as compared to $58,791 for the three months ended March 31, 2013.
Net Income/(Loss). We generated a profit of $893,346 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to a profit of $587,415 for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The increase was principally attributable to a combination of increased gross profit and decreased operating expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has historically financed its operations primarily through equity and debt financings, and more recently, cash flow from operations. The Company has also provided for its cash needs by issuing common stock, options and warrants for certain operating costs, including consulting and professional fees. The Company did not engage in any financing activities during the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The anticipated cash derived from operations and existing cash resources are expected to provide for the Company’s liquidity for the next 12 months.
Cash Provided by/(Used in) Operations. Our cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $72,242, as compared to cash used by operating activities of $(127,540) for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The increase is attributable to fluctuations in working capital accounts and non-cash expenses related to the issuance of common stock and options. Notwithstanding the foregoing, net working capital increased to $6,482,528 as of the quarter ended March 31, 2014 from $5,659,176 as of March 31, 2013.
Cash Provided by/(Used in) Investing Activities. Cash provided by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $50,000 as compared to $100,000 used for investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our business is currently conducted principally in the United States. As a result, our financial results are not affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or economic conditions in foreign markets. We do not engage in hedging transactions to reduce our exposure to changes in currency exchange rates, although as the geographical scope of our business broadens, we may do so in the future.
Our exposure to risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our investments in short-term financial instruments. Investments in both fixed rate and floating rate interest earning instruments carry some interest rate risk. The fair value of fixed rate securities may fall due to a rise in interest rates, while floating rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates fall. Partly as a result of this, our future interest income may fall short of expectations due to changes in interest rates or we may suffer losses in principal if we are forced to sell securities that have fallen in estimated fair value due to changes in interest rates. However, as substantially all of our cash equivalents consist of bank deposits and short-term money market instruments, we do not expect any material change with respect to our net income as a result of an interest rate change.
We do not hold any derivative instruments and do not engage in any hedging activities.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports 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 Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our disclosure controls and procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance that the controls and procedures would meet their objectives. As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, management has conducted an assessment, including testing, using the criteria in Internal Control — Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Our system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Management has used the framework set forth in the report entitled Internal Control-Integrated Framework published by the COSO to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on this assessment, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of March 31, 2014. This Quarterly Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Quarterly Report. There has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
(b) Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that could materially affect, or are reasonably likely to affect, our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2014. There have not been any significant changes in the Company's critical accounting policies identified since the Company filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K as of December 31, 2013.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Settled Patent Infringement Claims
On September 25, 2013 Thermolife International, LLC ("Thermolife") filed a claim against NDS in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California, alleging that NDS impermissibly used Thermolife's patented formulations in certain NDS products. The Company, along with approximately 36 other entities defending against similar claims filed by Thermolife (the "Joint Defense Group") filed its answer with the Court on October 16, 2013 denying the allegations. An additional claim was filed against the Company in the United States District Court for the Central District of California on September 27, 2013, alleging that the Company sold products that impermissibly infringed on Thermolife patents. The Company filed its answer with the court on October 18, 2013 denying the allegations. Thermolife sought to recover an unspecified amount of compensatory damages from the Company, and injunctions to enjoin NDS from further acts of alleged infringement. While the Company believed that the claims filed by Thermolife were without merit, during the quarter ended March 31, 2014, the Company settled the claims brought in both actions. The settlement required the Company to pay a fee, which management did not believe was material. The settlement removed the risk of continued litigation and, more importantly, avoided the cost of ongoing litigation.
On September 27, 2013 the Tawnsaura Group, LLC ("Tawnsaura") filed a claim against NDS in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, alleging that NDS is impermissibly used Tawnsaura's patented technologies in certain products containing Citrulline. The Company was among approximately 40 other entities defending similar claims filed by Tawnsaura. The Court stayed the case indefinitely pending the outcome of a patent validity hearing. Tawnsaura sought to recover an unspecified amount of compensatory damages from the Company and an injunction to enjoin NDS from further acts of alleged infringement. While the Company believed that the claims were without merit, during the quarter ended March 31, 2014, the Company settled this matter and secured a license for the use of Citrulline. The settlement required the Company to pay a fee, which management did not believe was material. In addition to providing the Company with a license, the settlement removed the risk of continued litigation and, more importantly, avoided the cost of ongoing litigation.
We are currently not involved in any other litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of the Company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting the Company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of the Company’s or our subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.
There are no risk factors identified by the Company in addition to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
