Daxor Corporation

February 28, 2019

Dear Fellow Shareholder:

Daxor Corporation (“Daxor”or the “Company”) is an investment company with medical instrumentation and biotechnology operations. We have attached a report of our portfolio holdings and investment activity for the year ended December 31, 2018. Please review this information carefully. The Company has been reporting as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 since January 1, 2012.

2018 was a very exciting year for our Company – important research results relating to blood volume measurement using our BVA-100 device were published in leading journals, the company received an SBIR Phase-I grant from the US Department of Defense, and the Company announced a joint research program with CHF Solutions (Nasdaq: CHFS) to explore the potential synergies between our BVA-100 measurement device and their Aquadex fluid removal system. In addition, Daxor has made key hires in the areas of sales, marketing, engineering, and medical education to drive commercialization and adoption of our device. Sales in the key area of cardiology use are growing, interest from researchers is increasing for further studies, and our stock performance reflects a greater interest from investors who see the merits of our developments. In addition, the Company received approval from the SEC for a shelf registration of shares and engaged the services of an investor relations firm to improve information flow to interested parties. Our NAV has been stable and our share price rose from $4.57 at the end of 2017 to a closing price of $8.20 at the close of 2018.

In the area of research, a crucial study on the use of the BVA-100 to guide heart failure treatment was published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology – Heart Failure (“JACC-HF”) in November of 2018. This peer-reviewed study quantified that in the examination of 245 patient serial admissions for heart failure (“HF”) that 30 day readmissions were reduced by 56% and mortality by 82% and that on a 365 day measure mortality was reduced by 86% compared to match controls. Researchers noted that the one year mortality rate was reduced from 35% to less than 5% in the BVA-guided arm. HF affects nearly 6 million Americans. HF leads to nearly one million hospital admissions a year and is one of the leading costs and killers in the United States. Numerous prior studies documented that the management of HF was challenging because the volume conditions of patients are difficult to assess. This is the problem that is solved by the BVA-100 and this new study indicates that the benefit of our precision diagnostic is substantial when used to guide treatment.

The prevalence of HF is increasing as the population ages and our health systems are increasingly looking to what solutions provide value – and BVA-guided care has a new strong piece of evidence. Our test is a rapid blood test, can be done for both in-patient and out-patient HF management and is reimbursed by Medicare and insurance. We look forward to data quantifying the cost-savings for hospitals through reduced/avoided readmissions as well as better quality scores from better outcomes. Additional research was presented in 2018 in the use of BVA for optimal Hypertension diagnosis, surgical blood loss, and ICU usage. It is an exciting time as more researchers are waking up to the value of our under-studied diagnostic and its usefulness in managing blood volume optimally in a wide variety of indications.

Daxor has been actively engaged in a program of increasing operating efficiency and efforts to focus its marketing and sales efforts in its operating division on it key products in the blood volume measurement field. The year over year loss of the operating division has fallen while our kit sales have risen, reflecting the increasing value of our technology and marketing efforts. In the area of cardiology usage, for the second straight year our kit sales have risen over 18% year over year driven by increasing awareness of the value of blood volume analysis to improve heart failure outcomes through reduced mortality and reduced readmissions. The Company hired a new head of sales at the start of 2019 and a new head of marketing in the summer of 2018, both of whom have extensive experience in the area of point-of-care diagnostic sales and marketing. Management will seek to further bolster this team with a well-trained sales force to increase sales of devices and kits in the coming year as well as exploring additional sales channels through alliances and distribution agreements.

Daxor received funding from the Department of Defense for a research grant to create a next-generation combat-capable blood volume analyzer. This phase I grant and possible future phase II awards will provide a non-dilutive opportunity for Daxor to create a product with both military and civilian uses of greater speed and simplicity. In addition, Daxor continues to invest in further research and development as has an active development program focused on the next generation of our products beyond the military uses focused on in-patient and out-patient use. The Company has filed new patents relating to its key technology of blood volume measurement and has an active R&D pipeline that is set for further innovations in 2019. Years of efforts in this area are bearing fruit in the form of both intellectual property and next generation design for our technologies which promise to make our product faster, easier, and more valuable to clinicians.

The Company also continues to explore the possibility of partnering with other companies with the appropriate scientific expertise and financial assets to begin a more aggressive marketing program even as we have our own development underway. Management believes the potential benefits for a partnering company are significant because of our intellectual property as well as the technologic superiority of our device paired with our growing patent portfolio. Additional distribution agreements with 3 rd party distributors are under consideration which would provide for a channel of sales that the company does not currently use.

The Company’s investment policy is to maintain a minimum of 80% of its portfolio in electric utilities (currently 84.08%.). The Board of Directors has authorized this minimum to be temporarily lowered to 70% when management deems it to be necessary or advisable. Investments in non-utility stocks will generally not exceed 20% of the value of the portfolio. The company has benefited from the benign interest rate environment and dividends which have added to our bottom line, however a strong move in the long end of the yield curve represents a risk of loss to the company’s investment strategy. The company has written covered calls on some of its interest-bearing stocks; however this risk has not been completely removed by such hedging activity and year-end market volatility relating to interest rate uncertainty continues to be a driver of portfolio profit and loss swings.

The Company in the past has engaged in the short selling of stock and uncovered calls, although as of the close of the 2018 fiscal year it does not currently have any such investments and curtailed such activity during the 2018 fiscal year. When this occurs, the short position is marked to market, and this adjustment is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss in the statement of operations. The Company uses historical cost to determine all gains and losses. The fair market value is readily obtainable because all of the Company’s marketable securities are classified as Level 1.

The Company also uses options as follows in order to increase yearly investment income:

| a) | The
use of “Call” Options . Covered options can be sold up to a maximum of
20% of the value of the portfolio.
This provides extra income in addition to dividends received from the Company’s
investments. The risk of this strategy is that investments may be called away, which
the Company may have preferred to retain. Therefore, a limitation of 20% is placed on
the amount of stock on which options can be written. The amount of the portfolio on which
options are actually written is usually between 3-10% of the portfolio. The historical
turnover of the portfolio is such that the average holding period is in excess of ten
years for our securities. |
| --- | --- |
| b) | The
use of “Put” Options . Put options are written on stocks which
the Company is willing to purchase. While
the Company does not have a high rate of turnover in its portfolio, there is some turnover;
for example, due to preferred stocks being called back by the issuing Company, or stocks
being called away because call options have been written. If the stock does not go below
the put exercise price, the Company records the proceeds from the sale as income. If
the put is exercised, the cost basis is reduced by the proceeds received from the sale
of the put option. There may be occasions where the cost basis of the stock is lower
than the market price at the time the option is exercised. |
| c) | Speculative
Short Sales/Short Options . The Company normally limits its speculative transactions
to no more than 15% of
the value of the portfolio. The Company may sell uncovered calls on certain stocks. If
the stock price does not rise to the price of the call, the option is not exercised and
the Company records the proceeds from the sale of the call as income. If the call is
exercised, the Company will have a short position in the related stock. The Company then
has the choice of covering the short position, or selling a put against it. If the put
is exercised, then the short position is covered. The Company’s current accounting
policy is to mark to market at the end of each quarter any short positions and include
it in the income statement. While the Company may have speculative positions equal to
15% of its accounts, in actual practice the net short stock positions usually account
for less than 10% of the assets of the Company. |

At December 31, 2018, the Company had net assets of $13,062,008 or $3.49 per share versus net assets of $13,757,621 or $3.68 per share at December 31, 2017. The Company had net dividend income of $427,584, net realized gains from investments of $580,884, net realized loss from options of $324,706, and a net change in the unrealized depreciation on investments, options and securities borrowed of $239,519. The Company had realized losses from the operating division of $2,082,176. The total realized and unrealized loss on investments and investment in operating division for the year ending on December 31, 2018 was $1,227,150.

The Company has focused primarily on its operating division operations and reduced its dependence on income from short term stock market investing from prior years but still generates considerable income from dividends received and covered options written. Because of its investing program, the SEC currently classifies Daxor as an investment company, and we understand why the SEC has required the Company to be designated as such, however our primary focus has always been on our operational objectives. The Company anticipates that as income from operations increases and the value of our medical device company increases that it will, at a future time, request a change back to its previous designation as an operating division and report accordingly.

The strong trend of healthcare is toward individualized care and cost-effectiveness. Our instrument is a non-invasive, inexpensive, and rapid solution to the expensive problem of fluid derangement. Our BVA-100 device enables the accurate management of the fluid levels of patients, whether it is in the heart failure clinic or the ICU, and studies published and presented are proving just how exciting the potential for this approach is. Reducing mortality, lowering complications, reducing hospital resource use and length of stay with a non-invasive and 98% accurate test is achievable with our patented technology, and we are working hard to get that message out.

Any shareholder who is interested in learning more about our medical instrumentation and biotechnology operations should visit our website at www.daxor.com for more detailed information. We periodically issue press releases regarding research reports and placements of the BVA-100 Blood Volume Analyzer in hospitals.

In closing, we are enthusiastic regarding the progress that the company has made in 2018 and look forward to the many challenges and opportunities that have become available to us. We remain focused on our goal of significantly improving patient outcomes, the health economic outcomes of our client hospitals, and continuing to drive increasing shareholder value.

Cordially Yours,

Michael Feldschuh

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2018

1. Organization and Investment Objective

Daxor Corporation (the “Company”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, closed-end management investment company.

The Company’s investment goals, objectives and principal strategies are as follows:

| 1. | The
Company’s investment goals and objectives are capital preservation, maintaining returns on capital with a high degree
of safety and generating income from dividends and option sales to help offset operating losses from the Company’s Operating
Division. |
| --- | --- |
| 2. | In
order to achieve these goals, the Company maintains a diversified securities portfolio comprised primarily of electric utility
company common and preferred stocks. The Company also sells covered calls on portions of its portfolio and also sells puts
on stocks it is willing to own. It also sells uncovered calls and may have net short positions in common stock up to 15% of
the value of the portfolio. The net short position is the total fair market value of the Company’s short positions reduced
by the amount due to the Company from the Brokers. If the amount due from the Broker is more than the fair market value of
the short positions, the Company will have a net receivable from the Broker. The Company’s investment policy is to maintain
a minimum of 80% of its portfolio in equity securities of utility companies. The Board of Directors has authorized this minimum
to be temporarily lowered to 70% when Company management deems it to be necessary. Investments in utilities are primarily
in electric companies. Investments in non-utility stocks will generally not exceed 20% of the value of the portfolio. |

2. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the year. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Company in the preparation of its financial statements.

Valuation of Investments

The Company carries its investments in securities at fair value and utilizes various methods to measure the fair value of its investments on a recurring basis. Fair value is an estimate of the exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants (i.e., the exit price at the measurement date). Fair value measurements are not adjusted for transaction costs. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of inputs are:

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2018

2. Significant Accounting Policies - (continued)

Valuations of Investments (continued)

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for an asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available; representing the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Investments in securities, securities borrowed and put and call options that are freely traded and are listed on a national securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price on the last business day of the year; securities traded on the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the mean between the last reported bid and asked prices.

The Company establishes valuation processes and procedures to ensure that the valuation techniques for investments that are categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are fair, consistent, and verifiable. At December 31, 2018 and at December 31, 2017, Level 3 investments consist solely of the Company’s investment in its wholly owned Operating Division at fair value. The Company’s Audit Committee oversees the valuation process of the Company’s Level 3 investments. The Audit Committee is comprised of members of the Company’s Board of Directors and is responsible for the valuation processes and procedures and evaluating the overall fairness and consistent application of the valuation policies. For this valuation process the Audit Committee meets semi-annually or as needed, and in conjunction with reports from an independent valuation company determines the valuations of the Company’s Level 3 investments. Valuations determined by the Audit Committee are required to be supported by the independent valuation company whose reports may include information such as market data, third-party pricing sources, industry accepted pricing models, counterparty prices, or other appropriate methods. On an annual basis, the Company engages the services of an independent valuation company to perform an independent review of the valuation of the Company’s investment in its wholly owned Operating Division, and may adjust its valuations based on the recommendations from the valuation firm.

2. Significant Accounting Policies - (continued)

Valuation of Derivative Instruments

The Company accounts for derivative instruments under FASB ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” which establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that derivative instruments be recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities at fair value. The changes in the fair values of derivatives are included in the statements of operations as a component of net change in unrealized depreciation on investments, options and securities borrowed.

Investment Transactions and Income and Expenses

Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments are calculated on the basis of identifying the specific securities delivered. Dividend income and expense are recorded on the ex-dividend date, and interest income is recognized on the accrual basis. Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis.

Distributions

Net investment income and net realized gains are accumulated within the Company and used to pay expenses, to make additional investments or held in cash as a reserve and at the discretion of the Company, to pay dividends to shareholders.

Revenue Recognition

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC” topic 606). The new revenue recognition guidance requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance requires an entity to follow a five step model to (a) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (b) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (c) determine the transaction price, (d) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (e) recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

The Company recognizes revenues in the Operating Division from product sales when a product is shipped and recognizes revenue from service contracts as the revenues are earned over the life of service contract and performance obligations are met.

The Company believes that there is no impact on opening retained earnings upon adoption of the new revenue recognition standards as related to the Operating Division.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” This pronouncement requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the estimated future tax consequences of events attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of changes in tax rates is recognized in the statement of operations in the period in which the enactment rate changes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reduced through the establishment of a valuation allowance at such time as, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company accounts for uncertainties in income taxes under the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10-05, “Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes” The ASC clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. The ASC prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The ASC provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

3. Fair Value Measurements of Investments, Financial Instruments and Related Risks

The following tables summarize the inputs used as of December 31, 2018 for the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2018, categorized by the above mentioned fair value hierarchy and also by denomination:

| Assets | Level
1 | Level
2 | Level
3 | Total |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Common
Stocks | $ 10,939,964 | $ - | $ - | $ 10,939,964 |

1 | Level
2 | Level
3 | Total |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Call
Options | $ 37,390 | $ - | $ - | $ 37,390 |

Purchased call and put options: When the Company purchases an option, an amount equal to the premium paid by the Company is recorded as an investment on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, the value of which is marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option purchased. If the purchased option expires, the Company realizes a loss equal to the amount of premium paid. When an instrument is purchased or sold through the exercise of an option, the related premium paid is added to the basis of the instrument acquired or deducted from the proceeds of the instrument sold. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid.

Written call and put options: When the Company writes (sells) an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Company is recorded as an obligation on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, the value of which is marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the written option. If the written option expires, the Company realizes a gain equal to the amount of premium received. When an instrument is purchased or sold through the exercise of an option, the related premium received is adjusted to the basis of the instrument acquired or the instrument sold. The risk associated with writing options is based on the difference between the strike price of the option and current market price of the underlying security less premium received. See Note 7 for further discussion of Investment and Market Risk Factors and risks of written call and put options.

Securities borrowed: The Company sells securities that it does not own, and it will therefore be obligated to purchase such securities at a future date. The value of the open short position is recorded as a liability, and the Company records an unrealized gain or loss to the extent of the difference between the proceeds received and the fair value of the open short position. The Company records a realized gain or loss when a short position is closed out. By entering into short sales, the Company bears the market risk of increases in the value of the security sold short in excess of the proceeds received. Possible losses from short sales differ from losses that could be incurred from purchases of securities because losses from short sales may be unlimited whereas losses from purchases cannot exceed the total amount invested. See Note 1 regarding the Company’s investment goals and its use of covered positions and Note 7 for further discussion of Investment and Market Risk Factors.

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company realized proceeds of $1,792,214 from the sale of investment securities and $102,300 from writing call and put options. During the same period, the Company spent $42,510 to purchase investment securities and $15,485 to purchase call and put options.

3. Fair Value Measurements of Investments, Financial Instruments and Related Risks - (continued)

The following table is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (level 3) during the period ended December 31, 2018:

| | Balance
at | |
| --- | --- | --- |
| | December

| Balance,
December 31, 2017 | $ 4,900,000 | |
| Net
change in unrealized appreciation on operating division | 750,000 | |

in/advances to operating division | 2,082,176 | |
| Realized
loss on investment in operating division | (2,082,176 | ) |
| Balance,
December 31, 2018 | $ 5,650,000 | |

The Company’s Level 3 asset consists of its investment in its wholly owned Operating Division at fair value and requires significant judgment due to the absence of quoted market prices, inherent lack of liquidity, heavy reliance on Level 3 inputs, and the long-term nature of such investments. Since its inception, the Operating Division has not generated significant revenue and has incurred substantial operating losses. Due to these substantial losses, the Operating Division has been completely dependent on funding from the Company to sustain its operations. Investment in Operating Division is primarily located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee and was initially valued at transaction value for identified assets (property and equipment, land, buildings and laboratory equipment), less accumulated depreciation adjusted for investment in/advances to operating division, business operations and activity and realized losses. Based on Company initiatives started in 2016 and through 2018, related to potential partnerships, joint ventures, product development, marketing and other operations of the Operating Division, the Company hired an independent valuation company to perform a valuation of the Operating Division. The independent valuation company updated the initial 2016 valuation and subsequent valuations at December 31, 2017 and 2018, respectively, using the Income Approach and Market Approaches as defined in SFAS 157 (ASC 820). Based on the valuation approaches, the valuation ranges were $5,400,000 to $5,900,000 for the Income Approach at December 31, 2018. In determining the Income Approach value range, the Gordon Growth Model valuation technique was used with a discount rate of 30% and long-term growth rate of 3.0%. Significant increases (decreases) in these unobservable inputs in isolation could result in significant changes in fair value measurements. The Income Approach was weighted 100% given the current financial performance and expectations as to longer-term revenue growth and profitability resulting in a midpoint of value range of $5,650,000 .

4. Derivative Instruments

The Company writes call and put options in order to generate additional investment income as part of its investment strategy. In the opinion of management, the use of financial derivative instruments in its investment program is appropriate and customary for the investment strategies employed reducing certain investment risks.

For the period ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded a net realized gain of $88,367 on call and put options and a net unrealized gain of $3,044 on call and put options. The primary underlying risk of the call options held at year end is equity price risk. The net realized gain is included in the net realized gain from options in the Statement of Operations. The net unrealized gain is included in net change in unrealized depreciation on investments, options and securities borrowed in the Statement of Operations.

5. Income Taxes (Benefit)

The net income tax expense (benefit) for the year ended December 31, 2018 is comprised of the following:

| State

| --- | --- | --- |
| Foreign
Tax Withheld on Dividends | 2,481 | |
| Total
current income tax expense | 21,434 | |
| Tax

| Net
income tax (benefit) | $ (332,552 | ) |

The Company has a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $18,431,000 at December 31, 2018. Approximately $16,745,000 of these losses relate to years prior to 2018 and will begin to expire in 2033. Approximately $1,686,000 of these losses relate to 2018 and will not expire, but are subject to limitations on usage.

The Company also has a capital loss carry forward of approximately $1,754,000 which will expire in 2019.

For tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, the Alternative Minimum Tax (“AMT”) on corporations is repealed. Credits may offset regular tax liability for years 2018 through 2021 and will be fully refundable by 2021. As a result, the Company recorded $353,986 as tax credits receivable.

At December 31, 2018, the Company had no material unrecognized tax benefits and no adjustments to liabilities or operations were required. The Company does not expect that its unrecognized tax benefits will materially increase within the next twelve months. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in investment administrative expenses. As of December 31, 2018, the Company has not recorded any provisions for accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

5. Income Taxes (Benefit)- (continued)

In certain cases, the Company’s uncertain tax positions are related to tax years that remain subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities. The Company files federal, state and local income tax returns in jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations. The 2012 through 2017 tax years generally remain subject to examination by federal, state and local tax authorities.

Under Internal revenue code section 542, a company is defined as a Personal Holding Company (“PHC”) if it meets both an ownership test and an income test. The ownership test is met if a company has five or fewer shareholders that own more than 50% of the company, which is applicable to Daxor. The income test is met if PHC income items such as dividends, interest and rents exceed 60% of adjusted ordinary gross income. Adjusted ordinary income is defined as all items of income except capital gains. For the year ended December 31, 2018, more than 60% of Daxor’s adjusted gross income came from items defined as PHC income.

Determining the PHC tax liability requires computing Daxor’s “undistributed PHC income” and taxing such PHC income at the statutory rate of 20%. Undistributed PHC income is current year taxable income of the Company, exclusive of the net operating loss carry forward deduction that is allowed for regular tax purposes. The Company incurred no liability for PHC for the year ended December 31, 2018 due to the net operating losses applied to realized gains incurred during the year.

6. Deferred Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes result from differences in the recognition of gains and losses on marketable securities; stock options and mark to market on short positions, as well as from carry forwards of the Company’s net operating losses of approximately $18,431,000, net capital losses of approximately $1,754,000 and tax credits of approximately $962,000 for tax purposes.

6. Deferred Income Taxes - (continued)

The significant components of deferred tax assets and liabilities are reflected in the following table:

| Unrealized
gains on investments in securities | $ | ) |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Unrealized
losses on call options written | 708 | |
| Unrealized
gain on investment in operating division | (520,910 | ) |

| Deferred
Income Tax Available for use | $ 3,342,819 | |
| Valuation
allowance | (3,342,819 | ) |
| Net
Deferred Tax Asset | - | |

Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on future earnings. Due to the uncertainty of the realization of its net deferred tax assets, the Company has provided a valuation allowance. In assessing the potential to realize the deferred tax asset, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some or perhaps all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which these temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making their assessment. The Company recorded a valuation allowance of $3,342,819 at December 31, 2018. The operating loss carry forwards begin to expire in 2033 and the capital loss carry forwards expire in 2020. If the Company becomes profitable before the expiration of the loss carry forwards, it would have the ability to utilize them in order to offset any taxable income. The valuation allowance increased by $319,140 to $3,342,819 at December 31, 2018 from $3,023,679 at December 31, 2017.

7. Investment and Market Risk Factors

The Company enters into investments in securities, call and put options and securities borrowed and/or financial instruments that may have off balance sheet risks, where the potential loss due to changes in the market (market risk), failure of counterparty to perform on the transaction risk (credit risk) and other risk elements, such as interest rate risk, exceeds the value and/or obligations of such financial instruments. It is the Company’s general policy to mitigate such risks by transacting with established counterparties. The main counterparty that the Company transacts with and custodies investment assets at is UBS Financial Services, Inc. (“Broker”). In December 2018 the Company transferred all the net assets previously held at TD Ameritrade to UBS Financial Services, Inc.

The Company’s investments in securities arise from investments in long common and preferred stocks, selling common stocks short and transacting in put and call (naked and covered) options. These investments are subject to equity risks of increases and decreases in market exchange prices such as on the NASDAQ.

7. Investment and Market Risk Factors - (continued)

The Company is subject to certain inherent risks arising from its investing activities of selling securities short and writing put and call options. Selling securities short creates an obligation to purchase the securities at an unknown future date, subject to the Company’s discretion, at the then prevailing future market prices. Securities borrowed create the risk that the ultimate obligation may exceed the liability reflected in these financial statements.

The Company collects premiums and the opportunity to create option premium income when writing put and call options if the options expire out-of-the-money. Writing put and call options gives the option buyer the right to exercise the option against the option writer. Writing put options obligates the writer to purchase the stock at the strike price if the stocks’ current market price is below the strike price prior to expiration of the put option. The potential loss in writing a put option is the strike price less the premium collected if the stock price falls to zero. Writing call options obligates the writer to sell the stock at the strike price if the stock’s current market price is greater than the strike price prior to expiration of the call option. The potential loss in writing a naked call option is unlimited as the rise of a stock price is unlimited. The potential loss in writing a covered call is limited to the strike price less the cost of the underlying security the Company holds in the portfolio. The Company endeavors to write covered calls but may also write naked calls.

Cash receivable from broker and margin loans payable reflect accounts with the Company’s Broker. Cash receivable from broker represents amounts receivable from brokers that are available for investing but have not been invested. Margin loans payable represents obligations to the Broker for leveraging investments in securities. Investments in securities are collateral for the margin loans payable. The Company does not have the right of setoff nor netting agreements between brokers.

The Company’s investments may be subject to changes in interest rates as they may affect equity and option markets. Interest rate risk refers to the fluctuations in value of fixed-income securities resulting from the inverse relationship between price and yield. For example, an increase in general interest rates will tend to reduce the market value of already issued fixed-income investments, and a decline in general interest rates will tend to increase their value. In addition, debt securities with longer maturities, which tend to have higher yields, are subject to potentially greater fluctuations in value from changes in interest rates than obligations with shorter maturities.

The Company is subject to volatility risk which refers to the magnitude of the movement, but not the direction of the movement, in a financial instrument’s price over a defined time period. Large increases or decreases in a financial instrument’s price over a relative time period typically indicate greater volatility risk, while small increases or decreases in its price typically indicate lower volatility risk.

Legal, tax and regulatory changes continue to occur in the United States and globally, additionally, regulatory environments, as a whole, continue to evolve and change. The effect of any future legal, tax and/or regulatory changes are unknown and could be substantial and adverse.

8. Related Party Transactions

The Company reported $225,357 of investment administrative charges on the Statement of Operations for the period ended December 31, 2018. These charges represent a portion of the payroll and related expenses of three employees of the Operating Division for services performed for the Company. The Company purchased in the open market 8,330 shares of Company Stock at an average price of $3.87 per share or $32,222. The Company sold in the open market 18,459 shares of the Company Stock at an average price of $7.51, or $138,550.

The Company has total margin loans payable at December 31, 2018 of $4,454,613. These loans are secured by the Company’s investments in marketable securities. The interest expense on the margin loans for the period ended December 31, 2018 was $121,255. The ability of the Company to incur margin debt at any given time is based on the current amount outstanding and the market value of the portfolio of marketable securities.

13. Stock Options

In June 2004, the Company created the 2004 Stock Option Plan in an effort to provide incentive to employees, officers, agents, consultants, and independent contractors through proprietary interest. The Board of Directors acts as the Plan Administrator, and may issue these options at its discretion. Daxor is not currently issuing options under the Plan, and will not issue options unless it receives exemptive relief or a favorable no-action response from the SEC regarding the operation of the Plan.

The maximum number of shares that may be issued under the Plan is 200,000 or 5% of the Company’s outstanding shares, whichever is greater. Under the provisions of the Option Plan, the exercise price of any stock options issued is a minimum of 110% of the closing market price of the Company’s stock on the grant date of the option. Prior to June 2004, the Company issued options to various employees under the previous Stock Option Plan that was also administered by the Board of Directors. All issuances have varying vesting and expiration timelines. As at December 31, 2018, 205,150 options were outstanding and 90,858 were exercisable.

At December 31, 2018, there was $297,474 of unvested stock-based compensation expense to recognize. The Company recognized $83,834 of share-based compensation expense in the Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2018. The aggregate intrinsic value at December 31, 2018 was $0 and was calculated based on the difference between the closing market price of the Company’s common stock and the exercise price of the underlying options.

To calculate the option-based compensation, the Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company’s determination of fair value of option-based awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, risk-free interest rate, and the expected life of the options. The risk-free interest rate is based on a treasury instrument whose term is consistent with the expected life of the stock options. The expected volatility, holding period, and forfeitures of options are based on historical experience.

In 2018, 128,650 stock options were issued to employees and outside consultants with a weighted average exercise price of $9.04. The 128,650 stock options issued during 2018 are still outstanding and 49,188 stock options have vested as of December 31, 2018.

The fair values of stock options granted were estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions for the years ended December 31:

2018 2017
Risk
free rates 2.75 % 2.07 %
Expected
life (in years) 2

There was $1,500 in fees payable to members of the Board of Directors at December 31, 2018, which were paid on January 4, 2019.

16 . Registration Statement

The Company has filed a Form N-2 Registration Statement under the Securities Act of 1933, which permits the Company to raise additional equity capital by issuing additional shares of common stock from time to time in varying amounts and by different offering methods, at prices and on terms to be determined by market conditions at the time of offering. During any 12-month period, the aggregate market value of securities the Company may offer may not exceed one third of the aggregate market value of voting and non-voting common equity held by persons who are not affiliates of the Company.

17. Contingency

Idant Labs, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company is currently defending against a civil complaint in Federal District Court in the State of Illinois in relation to the sale of anonymous donor semen that allegedly led to the birth of two children with alleged autism. The Company’s principal operating company, Daxor Corporation, previously a named defendant, filed and won a motion to dismiss the case on a variety of grounds. Management is of the opinion that the plaintiff’s claims are without merit. Management is also of the opinion that a reserve against assets regarding this claim is not appropriate at this time.

18. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, The SEC adopted amendments to Regulation S-X to update and simplify the disclosure requirements for registered investment companies by eliminating requirements that are redundant or duplicative of US GAAP requirements or other SEC disclosure requirements. The new amendments require the presentation of the total, rather than the components, of distributable earnings on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and the total, rather than the components, of common stock distributions from net investment income and common stock distributions from net realized gains on the Statement of Changes and Net Assets. The amendments also removed the requirement for the parenthetical disclosure of undistributed net investment income on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets. All changes have been reflected in the Company’s financial statements.

In August 2018, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-13 (“ASU 2018-13”) related to FASB ASC Topic 820 Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 eliminates, amends, and adds to the fair value measurement disclosure requirements of ASC Topic 820. The amendments are designed to provide more useful information to financial statement users. ASU 2018-13 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of applying this provision.

In November 2016, the FASB issued guidance which reduced the diversity in practice as to how changes in restricted cash are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The guidance required that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted the guidance as of January 1, 2018. Upon adoption, changes in restricted cash, which had previously been presented as operating activities, are now included within beginning and ending cash in the statement of cash flows. The balance is included as restricted cash in the statement of assets and liabilities at December 31, 2017. No balance exists at December 31, 2018

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes existing lease accounting standards. Together with subsequent amendments, this created Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842 (“ASC 842”). ASC 842 requires that a lessee recognize a right-of-use asset and a corresponding liability for its obligation under virtually all operating leases, as well as expands disclosure requirements. ASC 842 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of the adoption of ASC 842 on the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of its Operating Division.

ITEM 7. DISCLOSURE OF PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR CLOSED-END MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES.

Daxor Corporation is involved in many matters of corporate governance through the proxy voting process. We exercise our voting responsibilities with the primary goal of maximizing the long term value of our investments. Our consideration of proxy issues is focused on the investment implications of each proposal.

Our management evaluates and votes each proxy ballot that we receive. We do not use a proxy voting service. We recognize that a company’s management is entrusted with the day to day operations of the company, as well as long term strategic planning, subject to the oversight of the company’s board of directors. Our guidelines are based on the belief that a company’s shareholders have a responsibility to evaluate company performance and to exercise the rights and duties pertaining to ownership.

Due to the nature of our business and our size, it is unlikely that conflicts will arise in our voting of proxies of public companies. We do not engage in investment banking nor we do we have private advisory clients. In the highly unlikely event that a conflict of interest does arise on a proxy voting issue, we will defer that vote to our independent directors.

ITEM 8. PORTFOLIO MANAGERS OF CLOSED-END MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES

Since Daxor does not have a portfolio manager, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company manages Daxor’s portfolio.

ITEM 9. PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES BY CLOSED-END MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANY AND AFFILIATED PURCHASERS.

ITEM 11. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Deficiencies in the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures were not adequately designed and operating effectively to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the registrant in the reports it files or submits under the 1940 Act and Securities Exchange Act of 1934 was recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely fashion within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Management has taken corrective steps to resolve these matters so that future reporting may take place within the specified time frame of the 1940 Act.

(b) There were no significant changes in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant’s last fiscal half-year that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting other than the above mentioned corrective steps to improve the timeliness of financial reports as required under the 1940 Act.

Daxor did not lend out portfolio securities.
