5-year trend
dashed bar = fiscal Q4 derived from 10-K annual − Q1 − Q2 − Q3 (SEC requires only three 10-Qs per year).
What this company does
Universal Safety Products designs and markets consumer safety devices, primarily smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors sold under the company's brand and to retailers. Revenue comes from product sales, but the top line collapsed to roughly $4.6 million for the nine months from $17.3 million a year earlier, driving an operating loss. The company sold a portion of its business for $4.95 million, paid a $2.3 million special dividend, raised $2.5 million in convertible debt, and rebranded from Universal Security Instruments—signaling a major strategic reset.
Key risks
- Revenue collapse: Q3 net sales fell to $22,549 from $5.5M YoY; nine-month sales down 73% to $4.6M, gross loss in quarter.
- Going concern signals: accumulated deficit grew to $11.5M; $1.88M convertible debenture plus $949K derivative liability now exceed remaining inventory of $754K.
- Dilution/cash drain: $2.31M dividend paid while issuing $2.5M convertible debt; shareholders' equity halved to $2.27M in nine months.
