Pittsburgh, PA, March 03, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NEWMEDIAWIRE -- The United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania released a memorandum opinion granting Innovative Designs’ motion to strike the testimony of the Federal Trade Commission’s expert witness, which triggered Innovative Designs’ legal counsel to initiate the filing of a Rule 52(c) motion, which is contained in the “Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Title VI. Trials; Rule 52. Findings and Conclusions by the Court; Judgment on Partial Findings”.
Innovative Designs CEO, Joseph Riccelli, commented about how IDI’s legal representative, Mr. Anthony Patterson, concluded that the FTC’s expert witness had failed to meet the legal standard set by Daubert, which is the precedent governing the admissibility of an expert’s testimony. Mr. Riccelli stated, “IDI is now working on a motion to request that the Court enter a judgement against the FTC under Rule 52(c), which will then allow me and my staff the opportunity to become 100% focused upon IDI’s business interests.”

PITTSBURGH, PA--(Marketwired - Nov 4, 2015) - Innovative Designs Inc. (OTCQB : IVDN) Foreign assembly has been completed on machinery to produce Innovative Designs' insulation Insultex�. Shipping will occur within a few weeks. Upon arrival and set-up, Innovative Designs will begin domestic production of its Insultex� insulation. Three major benefits that will occur are (1) The ability to now market and sell Insultex� to Canadian accounts through the NAFTA Agreement, (2) Work with governmental contracts that specify products are required to be "Made in the U.S.A." and (3) Eliminate the high cost of shipping full containers into the United States. Innovative Designs CEO, Joseph Riccelli commented, "It's all positives when it came to making this decision. The production capabilities of the machine are amazing. We will never be caught in an Insultex� shortage with the ability to react and produce at a moment's notice. Our Insultex House Wrap� will now become price competitive outside of the U.S. market through the NAFTA agreement, eliminating the tariffs that currently exist."

Management Discussion and Analysis
Revenues for the quarter ended July 31, 2015 were $46,593 compared to revenues of $195,035 for the quarter ended July 31, 2014. The decrease is caused, primarily, by the fact that during the quarter ended July 31, 2014, a distributor of our House Wrap product purchased approximately $160,000 of the product. We are focusing most of our resources and efforts toward the development of a market for our House Wrap product line. During the three month period ended July 31, 2015 House Wrap sales totaled $43,389 in comparison with $174,388 during the three month period ended July 31, 2014. Our net loss for the three months ended July 31, 2015 was ($233,958).

Management Discussion and Analysis
Revenues for the quarter ended January 31, 2015 were $286,404 compared to revenues of $373,252 for the quarter ended January 31, 2014, the decrease in revenue was largely the result of decreased sales of our Arctic Armor product line. The decrease is caused, in part, by increased competition in this product area. We are also focusing most of our resources and efforts toward the development of a market for our House Wrap product line. During the three month period ended January 31, 2015 House Wrap sales totaled $7,605 in comparison with $6,851 during the three month period ended January 31, 2014. Our net loss for the three months ended January 31, 2015 was $(15,590). In February 2015, we announced that the laboratory which we use for testing our House Wrap product passed international accreditation which can now be documented on lab results. This allows the Company to begin an aggressive marketing program to national home builders who require the type of accreditation recently achieved.

Revenues for the quarter ended July 31, 2014 were $195,035 compared to revenues of $11,117 for the quarter ended July 31, 2013, as a result of the increase in sales in House Wrap during the three month period ended July 31, 2014. During the three month period ended July 31, 2014 House Wrap sales totaled $192,041 in comparison with $3,019 during the three month period ended July 31, 2013. Our net loss for the three months ended July 31, 2014 was $(123,249). The majority of the House Wrap was purchased by our mid-west distributor, A Team Lindus.
Deal Flow
ITEM 3.02 UNREGISTERED SALE OF EQUITY SECURITIES
From the period April 22, 2014 through July 23, 2014, the registrant sold its Common Stock to 26 investors in various private placements. The Common Stock was sold at prices ranging from $.40 per share to $.70 per share. A total of 1,080,680 shares were sold. The total proceeds received were $632,340. No sales commissions were paid. The registrant intends to use the proceeds from the sales to purchase raw material inventory, invest in new equipment and general working capital purposes. We believe the sales were exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended by virtue of Section 4(2) of the Act. All of the purchasers were sophisticated investors and no general solicitation or advertising was used. Except for one entity all of the investors were for the benefit of individuals. The vast majority of the purchasers were existing stockholders of the registrant.
Also, on June 20, 2014, we exchange shares of our Common Stock in return for the debt held by a stockholder; we issued 20,800 shares of our Common Stock in exchange for $12,500 of debt.
On May 5, 2014, we issued 15,000 shares of our Common Stock to one person for consulting services valued at $6,000. On June 4, 2014, we issued 40,000 shares of our Common Stock to one person for professional services valued at $16,000. On June 30, 2014 we issued 10,000 shares of our Common Stock to a stockholder in exchange for services valued at $5,000. And on June 24, 2014, we issued 15,000 shares of our Common Stock to one person for consulting services valued at $7,500. We believe that all of these transactions were exempt from the registration requirement of the 1933 Securities Act, as amended, by virtue of Section 4(2) of the act as all persons receiving the shares were sophisticated persons.

Management Discussion and Analysis
Revenues for the quarter ended April 30, 2014 were $66,670 compared to revenues of $55,010 for the quarter ended April 30, 2013. As a result of the colder winter that was experienced, our customers are ordering later in the year. Approximately 76% of our sales for the period were for our Arctic Armor products, and House Wrap accounted for approximately 23% of sales for the period. Our net loss for the three months ended April 30, 2014 was $(202,663).
Our House Wrap product continues to await the International Code Council’s certification of the lab which certifies the R value of House Wrap. Once such certification is obtained, we believe that the R value of House Wrap will be increased such that large national home builders will be able to use the product in their home construction. We cannot predict with any degree of accuracy as to when such certification will be obtained. We are currently supplying smaller contractors with the product. House Wrap is currently being offered, online, by Lowes, Home Depot and Tool King.
