Boxlight Corporation

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

THE COMPANY AND RECENT ACQUISITIVE GROWTH

 

Boxlight Corporation (“Boxlight”) designs, produces and distributes interactive technology solutions to the education, corporate and government markets under its Clevertouch and Mimio brands. The Company’s solutions include interactive displays, collaboration software, supporting accessories and professional services.

 

On March 23, 2021 the Company acquired Interactive Concepts BV, a Belgium company (“Interactive”) and a distributor of interactive technologies. On September 24, 2020, Boxlight acquired Sahara Presentation Systems PLC (“Sahara”), a leader in distributed and manufactured AV solutions, headquartered in the United Kingdom.

 

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Boxlight and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial information and interim financial reporting guidelines and rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2020 and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The December 31, 2020 balance sheet included herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures, including notes, required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

 

ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Note _ in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for 2020 contained in the Annual Report describes the significant accounting policies that the Company used in preparing our consolidated financial statements. On an ongoing basis, The Company evaluates our estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to revenue/reserves and allowances. The Company bases estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The Company’s financial instruments primarily include cash, accounts receivable, derivative liabilities, accounts payable and debt. Due to the short-term nature of cash, accounts receivables and accounts payable, the carrying amounts of these assets and liabilities approximate their fair value. Debt approximates fair value due to either the short-term nature or recent execution of the debt agreement. The amount of consideration received is deemed to approximate the fair value of long-term debt net of any debt discount and issuance cost.

 

F-5
 

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants. A fair value hierarchy has been established for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

 

  Level 1 Inputs - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
     
  Level 2 Inputs - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as interest rates, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.) or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market data by correlation or other means.
     
  Level 3 Inputs - Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

 

Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

 

The following table sets forth, by level within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s financial liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (in thousands):

REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

In accordance with the FASB’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), the Company recognizes revenue at the amount to which it expects to be entitled when control of the products or services is transferred to its customers. Control is generally transferred when the Company has a present right to payment and the title, and the significant risks and rewards of ownership of products or services are transferred to its customers. Product revenue is derived from the sale of projectors, interactive panels and related software and accessories to distributors, resellers, and end users. Service revenue is derived from hardware maintenance services, product installation, training, software maintenance, and subscription services.

 

Nature of Products and Services and Related Contractual Provisions

 

The Company’s sales of interactive devices, including panels, projectors, and other interactive devices generally include hardware maintenance services, a license to software, and the provision of related software maintenance. In most cases, interactive devices are sold with hardware maintenance services with terms of approximately 60 months. Software maintenance includes technical support, product updates on a when and if available basis, and error correction services. At times, non-interactive projectors are also sold with hardware maintenance services with terms of approximately 60 months. The Company also licenses software independently of its interactive devices, in which case it is bundled with software maintenance, and in some cases, subscription services that include access to on-line content, and cloud-based applications. The Company’s software subscription services provide access to content and software applications on an as needed basis over the Internet, but do not provide the right to take delivery of the software applications.

 

The Company’s product sales, including those with software and related services, generally include a single payment up front for the products and services, and revenue is recorded net of estimated sales returns and rebates based on the Company’s expectations and historical experience. For most of the Company’s product sales, control transfers, and therefore, revenue is recognized when products are shipped at the point of origin. When the Company transfers control of its products to the customer prior to the related shipping and handling activities, the Company has adopted a policy of accounting for shipping and handling activities as a fulfillment cost rather than a performance obligation. For many of the Company’s software product sales, control is transferred when shipped at the point of origin since the software is installed on the interactive hardware device in advance of shipping. For software product sales, control is transferred when the customer receives the related interactive hardware since the customer’s connection to the interactive hardware activates the software license at which time the software is made available to the customer. For the Company’s software maintenance, hardware maintenance, and subscription services, revenue is recognized ratably over time as the services are provided since time is the best output measure of how those services are transferred to the customer.

 

The Company’s installation, training and professional development services are generally sold separately from the Company’s products. Control of these services is transferred to our customers over time with hours/time incurred in providing the service being the best depiction of the transfer of services since the customer is receiving the benefit of the services as the work is performed.

 

For the sale of third-party products and services where the Company obtains control of the products and services before transferring it to the customer, the Company recognizes revenue based on the gross amount billed to customers. The Company considers multiple factors when determining whether it obtains control of the third-party products and services including, but not limited to, evaluating if it can establish the price of the product, retains inventory risk for tangible products or has the responsibility for ensuring acceptability of the product or service. The Company has not historically entered into transactions where it does not take control of the product or service prior to transfer to the customer.

 

The Company excludes all taxes assessed by a governmental agency that are both imposed on and concurrent with the specific revenue-producing transaction from revenue (for example, sales and use taxes). In essence, the Company is reporting these amounts collected on behalf of the applicable government agency on a net basis as though they are acting as an agent. The taxes collected and not yet remitted to the governmental agency are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Significant Judgments

 

For contracts with multiple performance obligations, each of which represent promises within a contract that are distinct, the Company allocates revenue to all distinct performance obligations based on their relative stand-alone selling prices (“SSPs”). The Company’s products and services included in its contracts with multiple performance obligations generally are not sold separately and there are no observable prices available to determine the SSP for those products and services. Since observable prices are not available, SSPs are established that reflect the Company’s best estimates of what the selling prices of the performance obligations would be if they were sold regularly on a stand-alone basis. The Company’s process for estimating SSPs without observable prices considers multiple factors that may vary depending upon the unique facts and circumstances related to each performance obligation including, when applicable, the estimated cost to provide the performance obligation, market trends in the pricing for similar offerings, product-specific business objectives, and competitor or other relevant market pricing and margins. Because observable prices are generally not available for the Company’s performance obligations that are sold in bundled arrangements, the Company does not apply the residual approach to determining SSP. However, the Company does have certain performance obligations for which pricing is highly variable or uncertain, and contracts with those performance obligations generally contain multiple performance obligations with highly variable or uncertain pricing. For these contracts the Company allocates the transaction price to those performance obligations using an alternative method of allocation that is consistent with the allocation objective and the guidance on determining SSPs in Topic 606 considering, when applicable, the estimated cost to provide the performance obligation, market pricing for competing product or service offerings, residual values based on the estimated SSP for certain goods, product-specific business objectives, incremental values for bundled transactions that include a service relative to similar transactions that exclude the service, and competitor pricing and margins. A separate price has not been established by the Company for its hardware maintenance services and software maintenance services. In addition, hardware maintenance services, software solutions, and the related maintenance services are never sold separately and are proprietary in nature, and the related selling price of these products and services is highly variable or uncertain. Therefore, the SSP of these products and services is estimated using the alternative method described above, which includes residual value techniques.

 

The Company has applied the portfolio approach to its allocation of the transaction price for certain portfolios of contracts that are executed in the same manner, contain the same performance obligations, and are priced in a consistent manner. The Company believes that the application of the portfolio approach produces the same result as if they were applied at the contract level.

 

Contract Balances

 

The timing of invoicing to customers often differs from the timing of revenue recognition and these timing differences can result in receivables, contract assets, or contract liabilities (deferred revenue) on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Fees for the Company’s product and most service contracts are fixed, except as adjusted for rebate programs when applicable, and are generally due within 30-60 days of contract execution. Fees for installation, training, and professional development services are fixed and generally become due as the services are performed. The Company has an established history of collecting under the terms of its contracts without providing refunds or concessions to its customers. The Company’s contractual payment terms do not vary when products are bundled with services that are provided over multiple years. In these contracts where services are expected to be transferred on an ongoing basis for several years after the related payment, the Company has determined that the contracts generally do not include a significant financing component. The upfront invoicing terms are designed 1) to provide customers with a predictable way to purchase products and services where the payment is due in the same timeframe as when the products, which constitute the predominant portion of the contractual value, are transferred, and 2) to ensure that the customer continues to use the related services, so that the customer will receive the optimal benefit from the products over their lives. Additionally, the Company has elected the practical expedient to exclude any financing component from consideration for contracts where, at contract inception, the period between the transfer of services and the timing of the related payment is not expected to exceed one year.

 

The Company has an unconditional right to consideration for all products and services transferred to the customer. That unconditional right to consideration is reflected in accounts receivable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in accordance with Topic 606. Contract liabilities are reflected in deferred revenue in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and reflect amounts allocated to performance obligations that have not yet been transferred to the customer related to software maintenance, hardware maintenance, and subscription services. The Company has no material contract assets on March 31, 2021 or December 31, 2020. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, the Company recognized $1.6 million and $0.9 million, respectively of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Variable Consideration

 

The Company’s otherwise fixed consideration in its customer contracts may vary when refunds or credits are provided for sales returns, stock rotation rights, price protection provisions, or in connection with certain other rebate provisions. The Company generally does not allow product returns other than under assurance warranties or hardware maintenance contracts. However, the Company, on a case-by-case basis, will grant exceptions, mostly “buyer’s remorse” where the distributor or reseller’s end customer either did not understand what they were ordering, or determined that the product did not meet their needs. An allowance for sales returns is estimated based on an analysis of historical trends. In very limited situations, a customer may return previous purchases held in inventory for a specified period of time in exchange for credits toward additional purchases. The Company includes variable consideration in its transaction price when there is a basis to reasonably estimate the amount of the fee and it is probable there will not be a significant reversal. These estimates are generally made using the expected value method based on historical experience and are measured at each reporting date. There was no material revenue recognized in Q1 of 2021 related to changes in estimated variable consideration that existed at December 31, 2020.

 

Remaining Performance Obligations

 

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of accounting within the contract. The transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised good or service to the customer. The Company identifies performance obligations at contract inception so that it can monitor and account for the obligations over the life of the contract. Remaining performance obligations represent the portion of the transaction price in a contract allocated to products and services not yet transferred to the customer. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the aggregate amount of the contractual transaction prices allocated to remaining performance obligations was $17.2 million and $16.1 million, respectively. The Company expects to recognize revenue on 27% of the remaining performance obligations during the 2nd thru 4th quarters of 2021, 28% in 2022, 37% in 2023 and 2024, with the remaining 8% recognized thereafter.

 

In accordance with Topic 606, the Company has elected not to disclose the value of remaining performance obligations for contracts for which the Company recognizes revenue at the amount to which it has the right to invoice for services performed (for example, a time-and-materials professional services contracts). In addition, the Company has elected not to disclose the value of remaining performance obligations for contracts with performance obligations that are expected, at contract inception, to be satisfied over a period that does not exceed one year.

 

Disaggregated Revenue

 

The Company disaggregates revenue based upon the nature of its products and services and the timing and in the manner which it is transferred to the customer. Although all products are transferred to the customer at a point in time, hardware and some software is pre-installed on the interactive device are transferred at the point of shipment, while some software is transferred to the customer at the time the hardware is received by the customer or when software product keys are delivered electronically to the customer. All service revenue is transferred over time to the customer; however, professional services are generally transferred to the customer within a year from the contract date as measured based upon hours or time incurred while software maintenance, hardware maintenance, and subscription services are generally transferred over five years from the contract execution date as measured based upon the passage of time.

Contract Costs

 

The Company capitalizes incremental costs to obtain a contract with a customer if the Company expects to recover those costs. The incremental costs to obtain a contract are those that the Company incurs to obtain a contract with a customer that it would not have otherwise incurred if the contract were not obtained (e.g. a sales commission). The Company capitalizes the costs incurred to fulfill a contract only if those costs meet all the following criteria:

 

  The costs relate directly to a contract or to an anticipated contract that the Company can specifically identify.
     
  The costs generate or enhance resources of the Company that will be used in satisfying (or in continuing to satisfy) performance obligations in the future.
     
  The costs are expected to be recovered.

 

Certain sales commissions incurred by the Company are determined to be incremental costs to obtain the related contracts, which are deferred and amortized ratably over the estimated economic benefit period. For these sales commissions that are incremental costs to obtain where the period of amortization would be recognized over a period that is one year or less, the Company has elected the practical expedient to expense those costs as incurred. Commission costs that are deferred are classified as current or non-current assets based on the timing of when the Company expects to recognize the expense and are included in prepaid and other assets and other assets, respectively, in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Total deferred commissions at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and the related amortization for 2021 were less than $0.1 million. No impairment losses were recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

 

The Company has not historically incurred any material fulfillment costs that meet the criteria for capitalization.

 

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

We reviewed all material events through the date of these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued for subsequent event disclosure consideration as described in Note 16.

 

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASC 842 “Leases” that creates new accounting and reporting guidelines for leasing arrangements. The new guidance requires organizations that lease assets to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet related to the rights and obligations created by those leases, regardless of whether they are classified as finance or operating leases. Under the previous guidance, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease primarily depended on its classification as a finance or operating lease. The new guidance also requires disclosures to help financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. For Emerging Growth Companies, the new standard is not effective until annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new pronouncement on its financial statements.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments Credit Losses” (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The new guidance replaces the incurred loss methodology with the current expected credit loss (CECL) methodology. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including trade accounts receivable. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) and net investments in leases recognized by a lessor in accordance with Topic 842. This new guidance changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. Since the Company is an Emerging Growth Company, the ASU is not effective until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within that fiscal year. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have, if any, on its financial statements.

 

F-10
 

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes” (Topic 740). The new guidance modifies the requirements for the timing of adoption of enacted changes in tax law. The effects of changes on taxes currently payable or refundable for the current year must be reflected in the computation of the annual effective tax rate. Since the Company is an Emerging Growth Company, the ASU is not effective until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have, if any, on its financial statements.

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, “Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity.” The new guidance simplifies the accounting for certain convertible instruments and for contracts in an entity’s own equity. Key provisions include the elimination of the “cash conversion” guidance and the “beneficial conversion feature” guidance in ASC 470-20 as well as a simplification of the settlement assessment that entities are required to perform to determine whether a contract qualifies for equity classification by removing certain conditions in ASC 815-40-25. Since the Company is an Emerging Growth Company, the ASU is not effective until annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2023. Earlier application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on its financial statements.

 

There were various other accounting standards and interpretations issued recently, some of which although applicable, are expected to a have a material impact on our financial position, operations or cash flows.

 

NOTE 2 – RECENT BUSINESS ACQUISITION

 

Interactive Concepts

 

On March 23, 2021 the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Interactive Concepts BV, a company incorporated and registered in Belgium and a distributor of interactive technologies (“Interactive”), for total consideration of approximately $3.3 million in cash, common stock and deferred consideration. The company has been Boxlight’s key distributor in Belgium and Luxembourg.

 

The valuation of intangible assets acquired was not final at the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. Amounts recorded for acquired intangibles and goodwill are provisional. The finalization of the valuation of certain acquired intangibles may result in measurement period adjustments to the fair value of customer relationships and intangibles and corresponding changes to the carrying value of goodwill. As a result of the eight-day period between the acquisition date and March 31, 2021, such adjustments are not expected to materially affect prospective amortization, which will be calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date, or have other material effects on the reported results of operations or cash flows.

 

The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the estimate of the fair value of consideration paid:

Sahara Presentation Systems PLC

 

On September 24, 2020, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Sahara Holdings Limited, a private limited company operating under the laws of the UK and all of its subsidiaries, including Sahara Presentation Systems PLC (collectively, “Sahara”). Sahara is a distributor of audio and video software and equipment including the Clevertouch branded product line of interactive touch screens. This strategic acquisition expanded the Company’s geographic footprint, industry verticals served, and enhanced the Company’s technology and product offerings.

 

As consideration for the purchase of Sahara, the Company transferred $73.7 million to the Sellers, including $44.9 million in cash (net of $6.0 million in cash acquired) and $28.9 million in convertible preferred stock. The convertible preferred stock was comprised of 1,586,620 shares of Series B convertible redeemable preferred stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) and 1,320,850 shares of Series C convertible redeemable preferred stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”). The fair value of the preferred shares issued was $16.5 million and $12.4 million for the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, respectively. See further discussion of the features of the preferred shares in Note 10.

 

On March 24, 2021 the Company entered into a share redemption and conversion agreement with the former shareholders of Sahara Presentation Systems PLC (“Sahara”) who together own approximately 96% of our Series B and Series C preferred stock. Under the terms of the agreement, we agreed to redeem and purchase from such preferred stockholders on or before June 30, 2021 all of the shares of Series B preferred stock for £11.5 million (or approximately $15.9 million) being the stated or liquidation value of the Series B preferred stock plus (b) accrued dividends from January 1, 2021 to the date of purchase. In addition, the holders of 96% of the Series C preferred stock agreed to convert those shares into 7,.6 million shares of our Class A Common Stock at a conversion price of $1.66 per share. In the event for any reason, we do not complete the conversion and redemption by June 30, 2021, and the Sahara shareholders do not agree to an extension, the agreement will terminate without liability by any party.

 

The consideration transferred to the selling shareholders along with the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. The excess consideration over the net fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recognized as goodwill.

 

The fair value of the deferred revenue at the date of acquisition was determined based on the estimated direct and incremental costs to fulfill the remaining performance obligations associated with the deferred revenue, plus a reasonable profit margin. Accordingly, the carrying amount of deferred revenue at the acquisition date was reduced to its estimated fair value based on the assumptions above which has resulted in and will result in a reduction in revenue that otherwise would have been recognized in periods subsequent to the acquisition date.

 

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the estimate of the fair value of consideration paid:

Paycheck Protection Program Loan

 

On May 22, 2020, the Company received loan proceeds of $1.09 million under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). The loans and accrued interest received under the PPP are forgivable to the extent borrowers use the loan proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll, benefits, rent and utilities, and maintains their payroll levels during the designated period prior to which the PPP would otherwise be repayable. The Company used the proceeds for purposes consistent with the PPP. During 2020, the Company applied for forgiveness in the amount of $837 thousand of the original PPP loan and is presently awaiting a decision from the Small Business Administration.

NOTE 8 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

 

The Company determined that certain warrants to purchase common stock do not satisfy the criteria for classification as equity instruments due to the existence of certain net cash and non-fixed settlement provisions that are not within the sole control of the Company. Conversion and exercise prices may be lowered if the Company issues securities at lower prices in the future. Such warrants are measured at fair value at each reporting date, and the changes in fair value are included in determining net income (loss) for the period. In determining the fair value of the derivative liabilities, the Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

 

   March 31, 2021 
Common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants   270,000 
Market value of common stock on measurement date  $2.53 
Exercise price  $0.42 
Risk free interest rate (1)   0.16%
Expected life in years   0.75 years 
Expected volatility (2)   142%
Expected dividend yields (3)   0%

 

   December 31, 2020 
Common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants   295,000 
Market value of common stock on measurement date  $1.53 
Exercise price  $0.42 
Risk free interest rate (1)   0.13%
Expected life in years   1 year 
Expected volatility (2)   160%
Expected dividend yields (3)   0%

 

  (1) The risk-free interest rate was determined by management using the applicable Treasury Bill as of the measurement date.
  (2) The expected volatility was determined by calculating the volatility of the Company’s peers’ common stock.
  (3) The Company does not expect to pay a dividend in the foreseeable future.

 

The following table shows the change in the Company’s derivative liabilities rollforward for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

 

   Amount 
Balance, December 31, 2019  $147 
Change in fair value of derivative liabilities   (29)
      
Balance, March 31, 2020  $118 

 

   Amount 
Balance, December 31, 2020  $363 
Exercise of warrants   (51)
Change in fair value of derivative liabilities   265 
      
Balance, March 31, 2021  $577 

 

The change in fair value of derivative liabilities includes losses from exercise price modifications.

NOTE 9 – INCOME TAXES

 

Pretax loss resulting from domestic and foreign operations is as follows (in thousands):

 

   Three Months Ended March, 31   Three Months Ended March, 31 
   2021   2020 
United States  $(5,243)  $(1,950)
Foreign   44    - 
           
Total pretax book loss   (5,199)  $(1,950)

 

The Company recorded income tax expense of $21 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

 

The Company operates in the United States, United Kingdom and other jurisdictions. Income taxes have been provided based upon the tax laws and rates of the countries in which operations are conducted and income is earned.

 

Prior to the Sahara acquisition, the Company had a net deferred tax asset position in the United States, the United Kingdom, and other jurisdictions, primarily driven by the aforementioned net operating losses. The recoverability of these deferred tax assets depends on the Company’s ability to generate taxable income in the jurisdiction to which the carryforward applies. The Company also depends on specific tax provisions in each jurisdiction that could impact utilization. The Company has evaluated both positive and negative evidence as to the ability of its legacy entities in each jurisdiction to generate future taxable income. Based on its long history of cumulative losses in those jurisdictions, we believe it is appropriate to maintain a full valuation allowance on the Company’s net deferred tax asset at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

 

Due to the Sahara acquisition, the Company has recognized a net deferred tax liability for the acquired entities, primarily driven by acquired intangible assets for which it does not have tax basis in the jurisdictions in which operates (primarily the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and the United States). The Company does not expect to qualify for any consolidated filing positions in any of these countries, so there is no ability to net the deferred tax liabilities of the Sahara companies against the deferred tax assets of the legacy Boxlight companies.

 

The tax years from 2016 to 2020 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject. The Company has not identified any uncertain tax positions at this time.

 

NOTE 10 – EQUITY

 

Preferred Shares

 

The Company’s articles of incorporation, as amended on September 18, 2020, provide that the Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock consisting of: 1) 250,000 shares of non-voting Series A preferred stock, par value of $0.0001 per share; 2) 1,586,620 shares of voting Series B preferred stock, par value of $0.0001 per share; 3) 1,320,850 shares of voting Series C preferred stock, par value of $0.0001 per share; and 4) 46,842,530 shares of “blank check” preferred stock to be designated by the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

Issuance of preferred shares

 

Series A Preferred Stock

 

At the time of the Company’s initial public offering 250,000 shares of the Company’s non-voting convertible Series A preferred stock were issued to Vert Capital for the acquisition of Genesis. All of the Series A preferred stock was convertible into 398,406 shares of Class A common stock. On August 5, 2019 a total of 82,028 shares of Series A preferred stock were converted into a total of 130,721 shares of Class A common stock.

 

F-17
 

 

Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock

 

As discussed in Note 2, on September 25, 2020, in connection with the acquisition of Sahara, the Company issued 1,586,620 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and 1,320,850 shares of Series C Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock has a stated and liquidation value of $10.00 per share and pays a dividend out of the earnings and profits of the Company at the rate of 8% per annum, payable quarterly. The Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into the Company’s Class A common stock at a conversion price of $1.66 per share which was the closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market on September 25, 2020 (the “Conversion Price”). Such conversion may occur either (i) at the option of the holder at any time after January 1, 2024 or (ii) automatically upon the Company’s Class A common stock trading at 200% of the Conversion Price for 20 consecutive trading days (based on a volume weighted average price). The Series C Preferred Stock has a stated and liquidation value of $10.00 per share and is convertible into the Company’s Class A common stock at the Conversion Price either (i) at the option of the holder at any time after January 1, 2026 or (ii) automatically upon the Company’s Class A common stock trading at 200% of the Conversion Price for 20 consecutive trading days (based on a volume weighted average price).

 

To the extent not previously converted into the Company’s Class A common stock, the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be redeemable at the option of the holders at any time or from time to time commencing on January 1, 2024, upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the holders, for a redemption price, payable in cash, equal to the sum of (a) ($10.00) multiplied by the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock being redeemed (the “Redeemed Shares”), plus (b) all accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, on such Redeemed Shares. The Series C Preferred Stock is also subject to redemption on the same terms commencing January 1, 2026.

 

As disclosed in in Note 2, the aggregate estimated fair value of the Series B and C Preferred Stock of $28.9 million was included as part of the total $79.7 million consideration paid for the purchase of Sahara.

 

As the redemption features in the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock are not solely with the control of the Company, the Company has classified the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock as mezzanine or temporary equity in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet.

 

On March 24, 2021 the Company entered into a share redemption and conversion agreement with certain holders of Series B and Series C preferred stock which allows the Company to redeem and purchase each stockholder’s shares of Series B preferred stock on or before June 30, 2021 for the stated or liquidation value of approximately £11.5 million (or approximately $15.9 million) plus accrued dividends from January 1, 2021 to the date of purchase. The same stockholders hold 96% of the Series C preferred stock. Upon redemption, the Series C shares would convert into approximately 7.6 million shares of Class A Common Stock at the stated conversion price of $1.66 per share. In the event for any reason, we do not complete the conversion and redemption by June 30, 2021, and the Sahara shareholders do not agree to an extension, the agreement will terminate without liability by any party.

 

Common Stock

 

The Company’s common stock consists of 200,000,000 shares of Class A voting common stock and 50,000,000 shares of Class B non-voting common stock. Class A and Class B common stock have the same rights except that Class A common stock is entitled to one vote per share while Class B common stock has no voting rights. Upon any public or private sale or disposition by any holder of Class B common stock, such shares of Class B common stock shall automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock. As of March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, the Company had 56,786,557 and 53,3436,518 shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding, respectively. No Class B shares were outstanding at either March 31, 2021 or December 31, 2020.

Exercise of stock options

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, options to purchase a total of 319,434 shares of Class A common stock were exercised.

 

NOTE 11 – STOCK COMPENSATION

 

The total number of underlying shares of the Company’s Class A common stock available for grant to directors, officers, key employees and consultants of the Company or a subsidiary of the Company under the Company’s 2021 and 2014 Equity Inventive Plans, as amended (the “Equity Incentive Plans”), in the aggregate were 5,000,000 and 116,837 shares, respectively. The 2021 Equity Incentive Plan was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on April 12, 2021 and is pending shareholder approval. All grants made under the Equity Incentive Plans must be approved by the Company’s Board of Directors prior to issuance.

 

Stock Options

 

Under our Equity Incentive Plan, an employee may receive an award that provides the opportunity in the future to purchase the Company’s shares at the market price of our stock on the date the award is granted (the strike price). The options become exercisable over a range of immediately vested to four-year vesting periods and, if not exercised, expire five years from the grant date, unless stated differently in the relevant option agreements. Stock options have no financial statement effect on the date they are granted but rather are recorded over time as compensation expense. We record compensation expense based on the estimated fair value of the awards which is amortized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Accordingly, total expense related to the award is reduced by the fair value of options that are forfeited by employees that leave the Company prior to vesting.

 

The following is a summary of the stock option activities during the three months ended March 31, 2021:

 

   Number of Units   Weighted

The Company estimates the fair value of each stock option award on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the stock options had an intrinsic value of approximately $5.5 million and $2.9 million, respectively.

Restricted Stock Units

 

Under our Equity Incentive Plans, pursuant to the Equity Incentive Plans, the Company may grant restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to certain employees and non-employee directors. Upon granting the RSUs, the Company records a fixed compensation expense equal to the fair market value of the underlying shares of RSUs granted on a straight-line basis over the requisite services period for the RSUs. Compensation expense related to the RSUs is reduced by the fair value of units that are forfeited by employees that leave the Company prior to vesting. The restricted stock units vest over a range of immediately vested to four-year vesting periods in accordance with the terms of the applicable RSU grant agreement.

 

The following is a summary of the restricted stock activities during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Overview

 

We are a technology company that is seeking to become a world leading innovator and integrator of interactive products and software for schools, as well as for business and government interactive spaces. We currently design, produce and distribute interactive displays, collaboration software, supporting accessories and professional services. We also distribute science, technology, engineering and math (or “STEM”) products, including our robotics and coding system, 3D printing solution and portable science lab. All our products are integrated into our software suite that provides tools for presentation creation and delivery, assessment and collaboration.

 

To date, we have generated substantially all of our revenue from the sale of our interactive displays and software to the educational market in the United States and Europe.

 

We have also implemented a comprehensive plan to reach profitability both from our core business operations and as a result of making strategic business acquisitions. We have already started to implement this strategy as set forth below. Highlights of our plan include:

 

  Integrating products of the acquired companies and cross training our sales reps to increase their offerings.
     
  Hiring new sales representatives with significant industry experience in their respective territories.
     
  Expanding our reseller partner network both in key territories and in new markets, increasing our penetration and reach.

 

Recent Acquisitions

 

On September 24, 2020, the Company acquired Sahara Presentation Systems PLC, a leader in distributed and manufactured AV solutions (“Sahara”). Headquartered in the United Kingdom, Sahara is a leader in distributed AV products and a manufacturer of multi-award-winning touchscreens and digital signage products, including the globally renowned Clevertouch and Sedao brands. In consideration for the acquisition, the Company paid to the shareholders of Sahara a total purchase price of GBP 74.0 million (approximately USD $94.9 million) in the form of GBP 52.0 million (approximately USD $66.7 million) in cash and GBP 22.0 million (approximately USD $28.2 million) in our Series B convertible preferred stock and our Series C convertible preferred stock.

On March 24, 2021, we entered into a share redemption and conversion agreement with the former Sahara shareholders who own approximately 96% of our Series B and Series C preferred stock. Under the agreement, we agreed to redeem and purchase from such preferred stockholders on or before June 30, 2021 all of the shares of Series B preferred stock for £11.5 million being the stated or liquidation value of the Series B preferred stock plus (b) accrued dividends from January 1, 2021 to the date of purchase. In addition, the holders of 96% of the Series C preferred stock agreed to convert those shares into 7.6 million shares of our Class A Common Stock at a conversion price of $1.66 per share. In the event, for any reason, we do not complete the conversion and redemption by June 30, 2021, and the Sahara shareholders do not agree to an extension, the agreement will terminate without liability by any party.

 

Acquisition Strategy and Challenges

 

Our growth strategy includes acquiring assets and technologies of companies that have products, technologies, industry specializations or geographic coverage that extend or complement our existing business. The process to undertake a potential acquisition is time-consuming and costly. We expect to expend significant resources to undertake business, financial and legal due diligence on our potential acquisition targets, and there is no guarantee that we will complete any acquisition that we pursue.

 

We believe we can achieve significant cost-savings by merging the operations of the companies we acquire and after their acquisition leverage the opportunity to reduce costs through the following methods:

 

  Staff reductions – consolidating resources, such as accounting, marketing and human resources.
     
  Economies of scale – improved purchasing power with a greater ability to negotiate prices with suppliers.
     
  Improved market reach and industry visibility – increase in customer base and entry into new markets.

 

Components of our Results of Operations and Financial Condition

 

Revenues

 

Revenues are comprised of hardware products, software services, and professional development revenues less sales discounts.

 

  Product revenue. Product revenue is derived from the sale of our interactive projectors, flat panels, peripherals and accessories, along with other third-party products, directly to our customers, as well as through our network of domestic and international distributors.
     
  Professional development revenue. We receive revenue from providing professional development services through third parties and our network of distributors.

 

Cost of revenues

 

Our cost of revenues is comprised of the following:

 

  costs to purchase components and finished goods directly;
     
  third-party logistics costs;
     
  inbound and outbound freight costs, and customs and duties charges;

 

4
 

 

  costs associated with the repair of products under warranty;
     
  write-downs of inventory carrying value to adjust for excess and obsolete inventory and periodic physical inventory counts;
     
  cost of professionals to deliver professional development training related to the use of our products; and

 

We outsource some of our warehouse operations and order fulfillment and purchase products from related and third parties. Our product costs will vary directly with volume and the costs of underlying product components as well as the prices we are able to negotiate with our contract manufacturers. Shipping costs fluctuate with volume as well as with the method of shipping chosen in order to meet customer demand. As a global company with suppliers centered in Asia and customers located worldwide, we have used, and may in the future use, air shipping to deliver our products directly to our customers. Air shipping is more costly than sea or ground shipping or other delivery options. We primarily use air shipping to meet the demand of our products during peak seasons and new product launches.

 

Gross profit and gross profit margin

 

Our gross profit and gross profit margin have been, and may in the future be, influenced by several factors including: product, channel and geographical revenue mix; changes in product costs related to the release of projector models; component, contract manufacturing and supplier pricing and foreign currency exchange. As we primarily procure our product components and manufacture our products in Asia, our suppliers incur many costs, including labor costs, in other currencies. To the extent that exchange rates move unfavorably for our suppliers, they may seek to pass these additional costs on to us, which could have a material impact on our future average selling prices and unit costs. Gross profit and gross profit margin may fluctuate over time based on the factors described above.

 

Operating expenses

 

We classify our operating expenses into two categories: general and administrative and research and development.

 

General and administrative. General and administrative expense consists of personnel related costs, which include salaries and stock-based compensation, as well as the costs of professional services, such as accounting and legal, facilities, information technology, depreciation and amortization and other administrative expenses. General and administrative expense may fluctuate as a percentage of revenue, notably in the second and third quarters of our fiscal year when we have historically experienced our highest levels of revenue.

 

Research and development. Research and development expense consist primarily of personnel related costs, prototype and sample costs, design costs and global product certifications mostly for wireless certifications.

 

Other income (expense), net

 

Other income (expense), net primarily consists of interest expense associated with our debt financing arrangements, gains (losses) on the settlements of debt and trade payable obligations exchanged for common shares, and the effects of changes in the fair value of derivative liabilities.

 

Income tax expense

 

We are subject to income taxes in the United States, United Kingdom, Mexico, Sweden, Finland, Holland, and Germany where we do business. The United Kingdom, Mexico, Sweden, Finland, Holland, and Germany have a statutory tax rate different from that in the United States. Additionally, certain of our international earnings are also taxable in the United States. Accordingly, our effective tax rates will vary depending on the relative proportion of foreign to U.S. income, the absorption of foreign tax credits, changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities and changes in tax laws. We regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from the examination of our tax returns by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, and other tax authorities to determine the adequacy of our income tax reserves and expense. Should actual events or results differ from our current expectations, charges or credits to our income tax expense may become necessary. Any such adjustments could have a significant impact on our results of operations.

Operating Results – Boxlight Corporation

 

For the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020

 

Revenues. Total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $33.4 million as compared to $5.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, resulting in a 484% increase. Revenues primarily consist of hardware revenue, software revenue, and professional development. The increase in revenues was primarily a result of the acquisition of Sahara Presentation Systems in September 2020 and increased demand for our solutions in both the U.S. and Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

 

Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $25.2 million as compared to $4.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, resulting in an 509% increase. Cost of revenues consists primarily of product cost, freight expenses, customs expense and inventory adjustments. The increase in cost of revenues was associated with the increase in revenues, and also additional customs/freight costs which increased from approximately $700 thousand in Q1 2020 to $1.3 million in Q1 2021 due to supply chain challenges caused by product fulfillment complications attributable to the Covid-19 pandemic.

 

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $8.2 million as compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The Gross Profit Margin decreased from 28% in Q1 2020 to 25% in Q1 2021. The gross margin decrease was primarily driven by the effects of customs and freight expenses discussed above, and certain purchase accounting adjustments stemming from the Sahara acquisition and effecting recognized revenues.

 

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative (“G&A”) expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $10.0 million and 30% of revenue as compared to $3.9 million and 69% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase resulted from additional personnel costs associated with the acquired Sahara operations. The reduction in G&A costs as a percentage of revenue was due to the effect of significant cost cutting actions undertaken during 2020 in response to the general depressed economic environment caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.

 

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expense was $474 thousand and 1% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to $316 thousand and 5% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Research and development expense primarily consists of costs associated with development of proprietary technology. The increase in research and development expense was primarily driven by an increase in contract services related to software development.

 

Other Income (Expense). Other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $(3.1) million as compared to income of $713 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Other expense increased primarily due to an $601 thousand increase in interest expense associated with increased borrowings, and $2.9 million of additional losses recognized upon the settlement of certain debt obligations in exchange for issuance of common shares.

 

Net loss. Net losses were $5.2 million and $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase in the net loss was primarily due to the lower gross profit margins, increased interest expense, and losses incurred on the settlement of certain debt obligations in exchange for shares of our common stock.

 

To provide investors with additional insight and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and decision-making surrounding operations, we supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements which are prepared in accordance with GAAP with EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, both non-GAAP financial measures of earnings.

 

6
 

 

EBITDA represents net income (loss) before income tax expense, interest income, interest expense, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA, plus stock compensation expense, the change in fair value of derivative liabilities, purchase accounting impact of fair valuing inventory and deferred revenue, and non-cash losses associated with debt settlement. Our management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as financial measures to evaluate the profitability and efficiency of our business model, and to assess the strength of the underlying operations of our business. These adjustments, and the non-GAAP financial measure that is derived from them, provide supplemental information to analyze our operations between periods and over time. Investors should consider our non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

 

The following table contains reconciliations of net losses to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented.

Discussion of Effect of Seasonality on Financial Condition

 

Certain accounts on our financial statements are subject to seasonal fluctuations. As our business and revenues grow, we expect these seasonal trends to be reduced. The bulk of our products are shipped to our educational customers prior to the beginning of the school year, usually in between June and September. To prepare for the upcoming school year, we generally build up inventories during the second quarter of the year. Therefore, inventories tend to be at the highest levels at that point in time. In the first quarter of the year, inventories tend to decline significantly as products are delivered to customers and we do not need the same inventory levels during the first quarter. Accounts receivable balances tend to be at the highest levels in the third quarter, in which we record the highest level of sales.

 

Due to travel restrictions and concerns for the safety for our employees during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we have reduced face-to-face meetings with customers and attendance at tradeshow events. We are currently assessing the impact these changes will have on our peak season sales. Our initial assessment is that funding priority will be given to initiatives that provide for continuity of learning which may result in lower priority on total learning solution sales including hardware, software and teacher training.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of March 31, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of $10.0 million and a working capital balance of $21.8 million. This financial position represents a significant improvement from a year ago at March 31, 2020 when we had a working capital deficit of $(7.1) million and $612 thousand of cash and cash equivalents.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we had net cash used in operating activities of $1.6 million and $890 thousand, respectively, net cash used by investing activities of $194 thousand and $0 respectively, and net cash (used in) provided by financing activities of $(747) thousand and $434 thousand, respectively. We had accounts receivable net of allowances of $22.9 million and $4.3 million as of March 31, 2021 and year ended December 31, 2020, respectively.

 

7
 

 

In addition to the cash flows generated by our ongoing operating activities we financed our operations during 2021 with a new $20.0 million tranche of debt funded by our primary lender, and from a pre-existing accounts receivable financing arrangement with another lender who purchases 85% of the eligible accounts receivable of the Company, for up to $6.0 million, with the right of recourse. Our accounts receivable and our ability to borrow against accounts receivable provides us with an additional source of liquidity as cash payments are collected from customers in the normal course of business. Our accounts receivable balance fluctuates throughout the year based on the seasonality of our business.

 

In the current COVID-19 pandemic environment, the availability of capital has been significantly reduced and the cost of capital has increased. Increasing our capital through equity issuance at this time could cause significant dilution to our existing stockholders as a result of diminished stock value due to market volatility and uncertainty arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. However, we are confident that the Company will be able to manage through the current challenges in the equity and debt finance markets by managing payment terms with customers and vendors.

 

Our cash requirements consist primarily of day-to-day operating expenses, capital expenditures and contractual obligations with respect to facility leases and other operating leases. We lease all of our office facilities. We expect to make future payments on existing leases from cash generated from operations. We have limited credit available from our major vendors and are required to prepay for the majority of our inventory purchases, which further constrains our cash liquidity.

 

Recent Financing

 

On September 21, 2020, we and Lind Global Asset Management LLC (“Lind Global”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Lind Global SPA”), pursuant to which Lind Global purchased from the Company a $22,000,000 secured convertible note (the “Convertible Note”) in exchange for payment to us of $20,000,000 (the “Funding”). Under the terms of the Lind Global SPA, in addition to the issuance of the Convertible Note, the Company paid to Lind (i) a commitment fee of $400,000 and (ii) a bonus fee (the “Bonus Payment”) of $500,000 payable in shares of Class A common stock of the Company, with the per share price of the Bonus Payment shares calculated based on the 20-day VWAP of the Class A Common Stock prior to closing. The Convertible Note has a term of 24-months, bears a 4% interest rate (0% interest so long as the Class A Common Stock trades at $3.50 or more per share), is repayable in 22 equal instalments commencing 60 days after the Funding and, at the option of the Company, may be repaid in either cash or Class A common stock. Class A common stock issuable to Lind Global in conjunction with the Bonus Payment and the Convertible Note was registered pursuant to a shelf takedown on the Company’s existing shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (SEC File No. 333-239939).

 

In conjunction with our entry into the Lind Global SPA and the issuance of the Convertible Note, on September 21, 2020, the Company and Lind Global Macro Fund, LP, an affiliate of Lind Global(“Lind”), entered into a third amended and restated security agreement (the “Third A&R Security Agreement”) for purposes of amending and restating a prior security agreement, dated as of February 4, 2020, between the Company and Lind in order to incorporate the Lind Global SPA and the Convertible Note therein. In addition, on September 21, 2020, the Company, Sallyport Commercial Finance, LLC (“Sallyport”), as first lien creditor, and Lind and Lind Global, as second lien creditors, entered into a third amended and restated intercreditor agreement (the “Third A&R Intercreditor Agreement”) for purposes of amending and restating the second amended and restated intercreditor agreement, dated as of February 4, 2020, between the Company, Sallyport and Lind, in order to (i) incorporate Lind Global as a second lien creditor and (ii) reaffirm and confirm the relative priority of each creditor’s respective security interests in the Company’s assets, among other matters.

 

On July 28, 2020, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Maxim Group, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Maxim”), pursuant to which Maxim, as representative of the underwriters, agreed to underwrite the public offering (the “Offering”) of up to 15,000,00 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, at a public offering price of $2.00 per share, in addition to an overallotment option (the “Overallotment Option”) of 2,250,000 shares of Common Stock. The Offering closed on July 31, 2020, with the sale of all 17,250,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, including the Overallotment Option, for gross proceeds of $34,500,000. Maxim acted as sole book-running manager, National Securities Corporation acted as a co-manager for the Offering, and A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners (“A.G.P.”) acted as financial advisor. As compensation for underwriting the Offering, the underwriters received an underwriting discount of 7%, equaling approximately $2,415,000, in addition to $60,000 in expenses. A.G.P.’s compensation was paid out of the underwriting discount. The Offering was made pursuant to the Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (SEC File No. 333-239939) (the “Registration Statement”) and the related base prospectus included therein, as supplemented by the prospectus supplement dated July 28, 2020 (the “Preliminary Prospectus”) and the final prospectus supplement, filed July 29, 2020 (the “Final Prospectus” and collectively with the Preliminary Prospectus, the “Prospectus”)

As approved by the Company’s board of directors on June 22, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement with Everest Display, Inc., a Taiwan corporation (“EDI”), and EDI’s subsidiary, AMAGIC Holographics, Inc., a California corporation (“AMAGIC”), effective June 11, 2020, pursuant to which EDI forgave $1,000,000 in accounts payable owed by the Company to EDI in exchange for the Company’s issuance of 869,565 shares (the “Shares”) of its Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, to AMAGIC at a $1.15 per share purchase price. The Shares were issued to AMAGIC pursuant to an exemption from registration provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

On June 8, 2020, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “June Underwriting Agreement”) with Maxim pursuant to which Maxim agreed to underwrite the public offering (the “June Offering”) of 13,333,333 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s Class A common stock at a public offering price of $0.75 per share. National acted as co-manager of the June Offering. The June Offering closed on June 11, 2020, with the Company’s sale of the Shares for gross proceeds of $10,000,000. In addition, the Company granted the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional 2,000,000 shares of Class A common stock at the public offering price less discounts and commissions (the “June Over-Allotment Option”). The June Over-Allotment Option was exercised in full on June 24, 2020, for additional proceeds of $1,500,000, through the sale of an additional 1,999,667 shares of Class A common stock. Maxim acted as sole-bookrunner and National acted as co-manager for the Offering. Gross proceeds, before underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses, totaled $11.5 million. As compensation for underwriting the Offering, Maxim and National together received an underwriting discount of 7% of the Offering and the Over-Allotment Option and were reimbursed for up to $85,000 in underwriting expenses. The June Offering was conducted pursuant to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (SEC File No. 333-238634) previously filed with and subsequently declared effective by the SEC.

 

On February 4, 2020, we and Lind Global Marco Fund, LP (the “Investor” or “Lind”) entered into a purchase agreement (the “2020 SPA”) pursuant to which we received $750,000 in exchange for the issuance to Lind of (1) an $825,000 convertible promissory note, payable at an 8% interest rate, compounded monthly (the “2020 Note”), (2) certain shares of restricted Company Class A common stock valued at $60,000, calculated based on the 20-day volume average weighted price of the Class A common stock for the period ended February 4, 2020, and (3) a commitment fee of $26,250. The Note matures over 24 months, with repayment commencing on August 4, 2020, after which time the Company will be obligated to make monthly payments of $45,833 (the “Monthly Payments”), plus interest. Interest payments owed under the 2020 Note (the “Interest Payments”) began accruing on the one-month anniversary of the issuance of the Note, however such accrued Interest Payments, which may be paid in either conversion shares or cash, did not become until after the six month anniversary of the Note’s issuance. We may make the Monthly Payments and any Interest Payments in shares of the Company’s Class A common stock so long as such shares are either registered for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or may be sold without restriction pursuant to Rule 144 thereunder. As such, the Monthly Payments may be subject to reduction in any month by any amounts converted into the Company’s Class A common stock. In connection with this transaction the Company and Lind amended and restated the $4,400,000 note and the $1,375,000 note referred to below that we issued to Lind in March and December 2019, respectively, to provide that we would not make any payments under the Lind notes in the form of Class A Common Stock if such payments could cause the Company to violate any rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market. In addition, on February 4, 2020, we and Lind entered into a second amended and restated security agreement for purposes of amending and restating a prior security agreement, dated as of December 13, 2019. Also, Sallyport Commercial Finance, LLC, as first lien creditor, and Lind, as second lien creditor, entered into a second amended and restated intercreditor agreement for purposes of amending and restating the intercreditor agreement between the parties, dated as of December 13, 2019, in order to reaffirm and confirm the relative priority of each creditor’s respective security interests in our assets.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). In connection with the preparation of our financial statements, we are required to make assumptions and estimates about future events and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the related disclosures. We base our assumptions, estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared. On a regular basis, we review the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.

 

Our significant accounting policies are discussed in the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. We believe that the following accounting estimates are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results, and they require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, resulting from the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain:

 

  1. Revenue recognition
     
  2. Business acquisitions
     
  3. Goodwill and Intangible assets
     
  4. Share-based compensation expense

Emerging Growth Company

 

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. As an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of certain specified reduced reporting and other regulatory requirements that are available to public companies that are emerging growth companies.

 

These provisions include:

 

(1) an exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;
   
(2) an exemption from the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards until they would apply to private companies;
   
(3) an exemption from compliance with any new requirements adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or the PCAOB, requiring mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report in which the auditor would be required to provide additional information about our audit and our financial statements; and
   
(4) reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements.

 

We have elected to take advantage of the exemption from the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards until they would apply to private companies. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

 

As a “smaller reporting company,” this item is not required.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted to the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms, and that information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive and financial officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report (“Evaluation Date”), pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses described in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

Notwithstanding the existence of the material weaknesses, we believe that the consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present in accordance with U.S. GAAP, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in this report.

 

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls.

 

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all controls systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving its objectives.

 

11
 

 

(b) Changes in internal controls over financial reporting.

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

None.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS 

 

The Company has experienced challenges within the global supply chain which has impacted the business in three key areas: (i) movement and/or delay in production schedules due to component shortages, (ii) continued delays to global shipping and receipt of goods and (iii) increased shipping costs which has reduced gross profit margin. In addition, there is presently a global silicon chip supply shortage that could potentially cause disruptions in our supply chain. While the Company’s business has not yet been affected by such disruption, in the event any of our suppliers experience such supply chain disruption, there is potential that such disruption could ultimately affect our ability to timely obtain and deliver finished goods and products.

 

For additional risk factors pertinent our business please refer to the Part I Item 1A of the Company’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which is incorporated by reference herein.

 

ITEM 2. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED EQUITY SECURITIES

 

On January 29, 2021, pursuant to an exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D thereunder, the Company issued 793,375 shares of Class A common stock to Amagic Holographics Inc., an affiliate of K Laser Technology Inc. (“K Laser”) in exchange for cancellation of $1,983,436 in accounts payable owed by the Company to K Laser’s affiliate.

 

On March 24, 2021 we entered into a share redemption and conversion agreement with the former Sahara Presentation Systems PLC (“Sahara”) shareholders. Under the agreement, the Company has an option to redeem and purchase from such preferred stockholders on or before June 30, 2021 all of the shares of Series B preferred stock for £11,508,495 (or approximately $15,876,084) being the stated or liquidation value of the Series B preferred stock plus (b) accrued dividends from January 1, 2021 to the date of purchase. In addition, the holders of 96% of the Series C preferred stock agreed to convert those shares into 7,630,699 shares of our Class A Common Stock at a conversion price of $1.66 per share. In the event that we do not complete the conversion and redemption by June 30, 2021, and the Sahara shareholders do not agree to an extension, the redemption and conversion agreement will terminate without liability by any party.
