Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(1) General Information

Description of the Company – Astrotech Corporation (Nasdaq: ASTC) (“Astrotech,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a Delaware corporation organized in 1984, is a science and technology development and commercialization company that launches, manages, and builds scalable companies based on innovative technology in order to maximize shareholder value.

Basis of Presentation – The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended December 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2021. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2020.

Our Business Units

Astrotech Technologies, Inc.

Astrotech Technologies, Inc. (“ATI”) owns and licenses the Astrotech Mass Spectrometer Technology™ (the “AMS Technology”), the platform mass spectrometry technology originally developed by 1^st Detect Corporation (“1^st Detect”). The intellectual property includes 32 patents granted with two additional patents in process along with extensive trade secrets. With a number of diverse market opportunities for the core technology, ATI is structured to license the intellectual property for different fields of use. ATI currently licenses the AMS Technology to three wholly-owned subsidiaries of Astrotech, including to 1^st Detect for use in the security and detection market, to AgLAB Inc. (“AgLAB”) for use in the agriculture market, and to BreathTech Corporation (“BreathTech”) for use in breath analysis.

1^st Detect Corporation

1^st Detect, a licensee of ATI for the security and detection market, has developed the TRACER 1000™, the world’s first mass spectrometer (“MS”) based explosives trace detector (“ETD”) certified by the European Civil Aviation Conference (“ECAC”), designed to replace the ETDs used at airports, cargo facilities, secured facilities, and borders worldwide. The Company believes that ETD customers are unsatisfied with the currently deployed ETD technology, which is driven by ion mobility spectrometry (“IMS”). The Company believes that IMS-based ETDs are fraught with false positives, as they often misidentify personal care products and other common household chemicals as explosives, causing unnecessary delays, frustration, and significant wasted security resources. In addition, there are hundreds of different types of explosives, but IMS-based ETDs have a very limited threat detection library reserved only for those several explosives of largest concern. Adding additional compounds to the detection library of an IMS-based ETD fundamentally reduces the instrument’s performance, further increasing the likelihood of false alarms. In contrast, adding additional compounds does not degrade the TRACER 1000’s detection capabilities, as it has a virtually unlimited and expandable threat library.

In order to sell the TRACER 1000 to airport and cargo security customers in the European Union, ECAC certification is required. Certain other countries also accept ECAC certification. After receiving ECAC certification for the TRACER 1000 on February 21, 2019, the Company is now marketing to and taking orders from airports and cargo facilities outside of the U.S. that accept ECAC certification.

On June 26, 2019, the Company announced the official launch of the TRACER 1000, and on November 22, 2019, also announced the first commercial sale of TRACER 1000 units to a global shipping and logistics company.

In the United States, the Company is working with the Transportation Security Administration (“TSA”) towards Air Cargo certification. On March 27, 2018, the Company announced that the TRACER 1000 was accepted into TSA’s Air Cargo Screening Technology Qualification Test (“ACSQT”) and, on April 4, 2018, the Company announced that the TRACER 1000 was beginning testing with TSA for passenger screening at airports. On November 14, 2019, the Company announced that the TRACER 1000 had been selected by the TSA’s Innovation Task Force (“ITF”) to conduct live checkpoint screening at Miami International Airport. With similar protocols as ECAC testing, the Company has received valuable feedback from all programs. Following ECAC certification and the Company's early traction within the cargo market, testing for cargo security continued with the TSA. With the COVID-19 pandemic, all testing within the TSA was put on hold; however, cargo non-detection testing resumed this summer, and the Company subsequently announced on September 9, 2020 that the TRACER 1000 passed the non-detection testing portion of the TSA’s ACSQT. TSA cargo detection testing resumed this fall and continues to move forward. This is the next and final step to be listed on the Air Cargo Screening Technology List (“ACSTL”) as an “approved” device and,

if approved, thereby approved for cargo sales in the United States. Given the deterioration in air traffic caused by the pandemic, TSA certification testing for passenger checkpoint security has been put on indefinite hold.

Finally, on October 28, 2020, the Company announced that it had surpassed $1.0 million in purchase orders for the TRACER 1000 and an additional $1.0 million in future service and support commitments, also announcing DHL (Deutsche Post AG) as its largest flagship customer.

AgLAB Inc.

AgLAB is a licensee of ATI and has developed the AgLAB-1000™ series of mass spectrometers for use in the agriculture industry for both process control and the detection of trace amounts of solvents and pesticides. The AgLAB product line is a derivative of the Company’s core AMS Technology.

BreathTech Corporation

BreathTech is developing the BreathTest-1000™, a breath analysis tool to screen for volatile organic compound (“VOC”) metabolites found in a person’s breath that could indicate they may have an infection, including COVID-19 or pneumonia.

Development of the BreathTest-1000 follows the Company’s results in pre-clinical trials for the BreathDetect-1000™, a rapid self-serve breathalyzer that is designed to detect bacterial infections in the respiratory tract, including pneumonia. The pre-clinical trials were conducted in collaboration with UT Health San Antonio in 2017.

On October 20, 2020, the Company announced a joint development agreement with the Cleveland Clinic Foundation to explore leveraging the BreathTest-1000 to rapidly screen for COVID-19 or related indicators. The goal of the agreement is to develop a non-invasive device that will use breath samples to identify COVID-19 strains, with the potential to provide a low-cost, self-service screening option that could be deployed on a large-scale.

(2) Leases

As of July 1, 2019, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02 Leases: Topic 842 (“Topic 842”), using the modified retrospective method of adoption. Astrotech elected to use the transition option that allowed the Company to initially apply the new lease standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the year of adoption. The adoption of Topic 842 resulted in an adjustment to accumulated deficit of $230 thousand at the beginning of fiscal year 2020.

The Company had two existing facility leases and several small equipment leases. Astrotech leased office space consisting of 5,219 square feet in Austin, Texas that housed executive management, finance and accounting, sales, and marketing and communications. The lease began in November 2016 and originally expired in December 2023. On August 3, 2020, the Company decided to terminate the lease. Upon lease termination, the Company recognized a decrease in the related operating right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and operating lease liability of approximately $506 thousand and $540 thousand, respectively.

In May 2013, 1^st Detect completed build-out of a 16,540 square foot leased research and development and production facility in Webster, Texas. This facility is equipped with state-of-the-art laboratories, a clean room, a production shop, and offices for staff. The term of the lease is 62 months and includes options to extend for two additional five-year periods. In February 2015, 1^st Detect exercised its right of first refusal on the adjoining space of 9,138 square feet. The original lease began in May 2013 and was to expire in June 2018; these dates were amended in October 2014 with the amended lease beginning February 1, 2015, and expiring April 30, 2020, with provisions to renew and extend the lease for the entire premises, but not less than the entire premises, for two renewal terms of five years each. On June 1, 2018, the Company entered into its third amendment of the original lease removing 8,118 square feet from its leased space, leaving leased premises with a total square footage of 17,560. On January 21, 2020, the Company entered into its fourth amendment of the original lease, with the amended lease beginning May 1, 2020 and expiring April 30, 2021, with the option to renew and extend the lease for one renewal term of one year. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2021, the Company has decided to allow the Webster lease to expire on its expiration date and declined the option to renew the lease. This resulted in a reduction of the related operating ROU asset and operating lease liability of $171 thousand and $192 thousand, respectively.

Operating lease assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. Significant judgement is required when determining the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Upon the adoption of Topic 842, the Company’s accounting for financing leases, previously referred to as capital leases, remains substantially unchanged from prior guidance.

The balance sheet presentation of the Company’s operating and finance leases is as follows:

(In thousands)	Classification on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet	December 31, 2020

On August 3, 2020, the Company terminated its corporate office lease in Austin, Texas and wrote-off the remaining net book value of the related leasehold improvement assets in the amount of $229 thousand.

(4) Stockholders’ Equity

Public Offerings of Common Stock

On October 21, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “First Purchase Agreement”) with certain purchasers named therein, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell 7,826,086 shares (the “Public Offering Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at an offering price of $2.30 per share (the “Public Offering”).

The Public Offering resulted in gross proceeds of approximately $18.0 million before deducting the placement agent’s fees and related offering expenses.

Pursuant to an engagement agreement dated July 23, 2020, as amended, the Company engaged H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (the “Placement Agent”) to act as the Company’s exclusive placement agent in connection with the Public Offering. The Company issued to the Placement Agent, or its designees, warrants (the “Placement Agent’s Warrants No. 1”) to purchase up to 469,565 shares of Common Stock, which represents 6.0% of the Public Offering Shares sold in the Public Offering. The Placement Agent’s Warrants No. 1 have an exercise price of $2.875 per share, which represents 125% of the per share offering price of the Public Offering Shares, and a termination date of October 21, 2025. The Placement Agent’s Warrants No. 1 had a fair value per share of $2.01 as of the date of issuance.

On October 28, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Second Purchase Agreement”) with certain purchasers named therein, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell, in a registered direct offering (the “Registered Offering”), 2,887,906 shares (the “Registered Offering Shares”) of the Company’s Common Stock, at an offering price of $2.15 per share.

The Registered Offering resulted in gross proceeds of approximately $6.2 million before deducting the placement agent’s fees and related offering expenses.

Pursuant to an engagement agreement dated July 23, 2020, as amended, the Company engaged the Placement Agent to act as the Company’s exclusive placement agent in connection with the Registered Offering. The Company also issued to the Placement Agent, or its designees, warrants (the “Placement Agent’s Warrants No. 2”) to purchase up to 173,274 shares of Common Stock, which represents 6.0% of the Registered Offering Shares sold in the Registered Offering. The Placement Agent’s Warrants No. 2 have an exercise price of $2.6875 per share, which represents 125% of the per share offering price of the Registered Offering Shares, and a termination date of October 28, 2025. The Placement Agent’s Warrants No. 2 had a fair value per share of $1.80 as of the date of issuance.

At-the-Market Agreements

From November 9, 2018 through March 25, 2020, the Company sold 793,668 shares of Common Stock pursuant to an At-the-Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “B. Riley ATM Agreement”) with B. Riley FBR, under which B. Riley FBR acted as the sales agent. In connection with the sale of these shares of Common Stock, the Company received net proceeds of $2.3 million. The weighted-average sale price per share was $3.04. No additional shares of the Company’s Common Stock will be sold pursuant to the B. Riley ATM Agreement. The Company did not incur any termination penalties as a result of its termination of the B. Riley ATM Agreement.

Nasdaq Compliance

As previously noted in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, the Company was not in compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market because its stockholders’ equity was below the required minimum of $2.5 million at June 30, 2020. On September 11, 2020, the Company received a notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that it was not in compliance with the required stockholder’s equity of $2.5 million.

The notice had no immediate effect on the Company’s listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company originally had until October 26, 2020 to submit a plan to regain compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement; however, Nasdaq granted an extension of the deadline to submit a plan until November 2, 2020.

Following the offerings mentioned above, the Company is now in compliance with the minimum stockholders’ equity requirement.

(5) Net Loss per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and the if-converted method. Potentially dilutive common shares include outstanding stock options and share-based awards.

The following table reconciles the numerators and denominators used in the computations of both basic and diluted net loss per share:

	Three Months Ended December 31,						Six Months Ended December 31,
(In thousands, except per share data)	2020			2019			2020			2019
Numerator:
Net loss	$	(1,622	)	$	(2,083	)	$	(3,733	)	$	(4,151	)
Denominator:
Denominator for basic and diluted net loss per share — weighted average common stock outstanding		15,864			5,947			11,769			5,769
Basic and diluted net loss per common share:
Net loss	$	(0.10	)	$	(0.35	)	$	(0.32	)	$	(0.72	)

All unvested restricted stock awards for the six months ended December 31, 2020 are not included in diluted net loss per share, as the impact to net loss per share would be anti-dilutive. Options to purchase 321,225 shares of common stock at exercise prices ranging from $1.85 to $8.35 per share outstanding as of December 31, 2020 were not included in diluted net loss per share, as the impact to net loss per share would be anti-dilutive.

(6) Revenue Recognition

Astrotech recognizes revenue employing the generally accepted revenue recognition methodologies described under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“Topic 606”), which was adopted by the Company in fiscal year 2019. The methodology used is based on contract type and how products and services are provided. The guidelines of Topic 606 establish a five-step process to govern the recognition and reporting of revenue from contracts with customers. The five steps are: (i) identify the contract with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations within the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations within the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when or as the performance obligations are satisfied.

An additional factor is reasonable assurance of collectability. This necessitates deferral of all or a portion of revenue recognition until collection. During the three months ended December 31, 2020, the Company had one revenue source that totaled $130 thousand. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2020, the Company had one material revenue source. Revenue was recognized at a point in time consistent with the guidelines in Topic 606.

The Company disaggregates revenue by reporting segment to depict the nature of revenue in a manner consistent with its business operations and to be consistent with other communications and public filings. Refer to Note 13 for additional details of revenues by reporting segment.

Contract Assets and Liabilities. The Company enters into contracts to sell products and provide services, and it recognizes contract assets and liabilities that arise from these transactions. The Company recognizes revenue and corresponding accounts receivable according to Topic 606 and, at times, recognize revenue in advance of the time when contracts give us the right to invoice a customer. The Company may also receive consideration, per the terms of a contract, from customers prior to transferring goods to the customer. The Company records customer deposits as deferred revenue. Additionally, the Company may receive payments, most typically for service and warranty contracts, at the onset of the contract and before services have been performed. In such instances, the Company records a deferred revenue liability. The Company recognizes these contract liabilities as sales after all revenue recognition criteria are met.

Practical Expedients. In cases where the Company is responsible for shipping after the customer has obtained control of the goods, the Company has elected to treat the shipping activities as fulfillment activities rather than as a separate performance obligation. Additionally, the Company has elected to capitalize the cost to obtain a contract only if the period of amortization would be longer than one year. The Company only gives consideration to whether a customer agreement has a financing component if the period of time between transfer of goods and services and customer payment is greater than one year.

Product Sales. The Company recognizes revenue from sales of products upon shipment or delivery when control of the product transfers to the customer, depending on the terms of each sale, and when collection is probable. In the circumstance where terms of a product sale include subjective customer acceptance criteria, revenue is deferred until the Company has achieved the acceptance criteria unless the customer acceptance criteria are perfunctory or inconsequential. The Company generally offers customers payment terms of less than one year.

Freight. The Company records shipping and handling fees that it charges to its customers as revenue and related costs as cost of revenue.

Multiple Performance Obligations. Certain agreements with customers include the sale of equipment involving multiple elements in cases where obligations in a contract are distinct and thus require separation into multiple performance obligations, revenue recognition guidance requires that contract consideration be allocated to each distinct performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. The value allocated to each performance obligation is then recognized as revenue when the revenue recognition criteria for each distinct promise or bundle of promises has been met.

The standalone selling price for each performance obligation is an amount that depicts the amount of consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring the good or service. When there is only one performance obligation associated with a contract, the entire amount of consideration is attributed to that obligation. When a contract contains multiple performance obligations the standalone selling price is first estimated using the observable price, which is generally a list price net of applicable discount or the price used to sell the good or service in similar circumstances. In circumstances when a selling price is not directly observable, the Company will estimate the standalone selling price using information available to it including its market assessment and expected cost plus margin.

The timetable for fulfilment of each of the distinct performance obligations can range from completion in a short amount of time and entirely within a single reporting period to completion over several reporting periods. The timing of revenue recognition for each performance obligation may be dependent upon several milestones, including physical delivery of equipment, completion of site acceptance test, and in the case of after-market consumables and service deliverables, the passage of time.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic

The Company has taken what it believes are necessary precautions to safeguard its employees from the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company continues to follow the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (“CDC”) guidance and the recommendations and restrictions provided by state and local authorities. All of the Company’s employees who do not work in a lab setting are currently on a telecommunication work arrangement and have been able to successfully work remotely. The Company’s lab requires in-person staffing and the Company has been able to continue to operate its lab, minimizing infection risk to lab staff through a combination of social distancing and appropriate protective equipment. There can be no assurance, however, that key employees will not become ill or that the Company will be able to continue to operate its labs.

The continuing impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on the Company’s operations, including duration, severity, and scope, remains uncertain and cannot be fully predicted at this time. Accordingly, the Company believes that the COVID-19 pandemic could continue to adversely impact its results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition in the future.

As the Company’s business operations continue to be impacted by the pandemic, the Company continues to monitor the situation and the guidance that is being provided by relevant federal, state, and local public health authorities. The Company may take additional actions based upon their recommendations. However, it is possible that the Company may have to make further adjustments to its operating plans in reaction to developments that are beyond its control.

(7) Fair Value Measurement

The accounting standard for fair value measurements defines fair value, establishes a market-based framework or hierarchy for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The standard is applicable whenever assets and liabilities are measured and included in the financial statements at fair value.

The fair value hierarchy established in the standard prioritizes the inputs used in valuation techniques into three levels as follows:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

As of December 31, 2020, the fair value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents approximate their carrying value due to their short-term nature.

(8) Debt

On September 5, 2019, the Company entered into a private placement transaction with Thomas B. Pickens III, the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company for the issuance and sale of a secured promissory note (“Note No. 1”) to Mr. Pickens with a principal amount of $1.5 million. Interest on Note No. 1 shall accrue at 11% per annum. The principal amount and accrued interest on Note No. 1 shall become due and payable on September 5, 2020 (the “Maturity Date”). The Company may prepay the principal amount and all accrued interest on Note No. 1 at any time prior to the Maturity Date. In connection with the issuance of Note No. 1, the Company, along with 1^st Detect Corporation and Astrotech Technologies, Inc. (the “Subsidiaries”), entered into a security agreement, dated as of September 5, 2019, with Mr. Pickens (the “Security Agreement No. 1”), pursuant to which the Company and the Subsidiaries granted to Mr. Pickens a security interest in all of the Company’s and the Subsidiaries’ Collateral, as such term is defined in Security Agreement No. 1. In addition, the Subsidiaries jointly and severally agreed to guarantee and act as surety for the Company’s obligation to repay Note No. 1 pursuant to a subsidiary guarantee.

On February 13, 2020, the Company entered into a second private placement transaction with Mr. Pickens for the issuance and sale of a secured promissory note (“Note No. 2”) to Mr. Pickens with a principal amount of $1.0 million. Interest on Note No. 2 shall accrue at 11% per annum. The principal amount and accrued interest on Note No. 2 shall become due and payable on the Maturity Date. The Company may prepay the principal amount and all accrued interest on Note No. 2 at any time prior to the Maturity Date. In connection with the issuance of Note No. 2, the Company, along with the Subsidiaries, entered into a second security agreement, dated as of February 13, 2020, with Mr. Pickens (the “Security Agreement No. 2”), pursuant to which the Company and the Subsidiaries granted to Mr. Pickens a security interest in all of the Company’s and the Subsidiaries’ Collateral, as such term is defined in Security Agreement No. 2. In addition, the Subsidiaries jointly and severally agreed to guarantee and act as surety for the Company’s obligation to repay Note No. 2 pursuant to a subsidiary guarantee.

On August 24, 2020, the Company and Mr. Pickens agreed to extend the Maturity Date of both the notes and payment of accrued interest to September 5, 2021.

On April 14, 2020, the Company entered into a promissory note under the Paycheck Protection Program “(PPP”) for $542 thousand (the “PPP Promissory Note”) with a commercial bank (the “Bank”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The PPP Promissory Note bears interest at a rate of 1.0% per annum. Payments are due monthly beginning November 10, 2020. The remaining principal amount of the PPP Promissory Note along with any unpaid interest is due on April 1, 2022. The principal and interest may be forgiven if the proceeds are used for forgivable purposes as defined by the terms in the PPP Promissory Note, and the Company has used the proceeds from the PPP Promissory Note for forgivable purposes as defined by the terms of the PPP Promissory Note. The Company has applied for forgiveness under the provisions of the CARES Act and escrowed the balance of the note with the lender. Forgiveness is subject to the sole approval of the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) and it may deny our application for forgiveness in whole or in part. Interest expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2020 was approximately $1 thousand and $2 thousand, respectively.

On October 19, 2020, as required by the SBA prior to executing the First Purchase Agreement on October 21, 2020, the Company and the Bank entered into a Cash Reserve Agreement wherein the Company agreed to deliver to the Bank an amount equal to $542 thousand to be held in a separate restricted cash account in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Cash Reserve Agreement for the purpose of establishing a source of payment for the Company’s obligations to repay and/or obtain forgiveness of the PPP Promissory Note.

(9) Business Risk and Credit Risk Concentration Involving Cash

For the three and six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had one customer that materially comprised all of the Company’s revenue.

The Company maintains funds in bank accounts that may exceed the limit insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation of $250 thousand per depositor. The risk of loss attributable to these uninsured balances is mitigated by depositing funds in what we believe to be high credit quality financial institutions. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

(10) Stock-Based Compensation

Stock Option Activity Summary

The Company’s stock option activity for the six months ended December 31, 2020 is as follows:

The Company’s restricted stock activity for the six months ended December 31, 2020, is as follows:

	Shares (in thousands)			Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value
Outstanding at June 30, 2020		133		$	3.95

The remaining stock-based compensation expense of $161 thousand related to restricted stock awards granted will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.98 years.

(11) Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. As of December 31, 2020, the Company established a valuation allowance against all of its net deferred tax assets.

For the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred pre-tax losses in the amount of $1.6 million and $2.1 million, respectively. For the six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company incurred pre-tax losses in the amount of $3.7 million and $4.2 million, respectively. The total effective tax rate was approximately 0% for the each of the three and six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

For each of the six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company’s effective tax rate differed from the federal statutory rate of 21%, primarily due to the valuation allowance placed against its net deferred tax assets.

The CARES Act was signed into law on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act provided certain tax relief measures including the acceleration of the alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) credit previously paid. The CARES Act allows for the acceleration of the refundable AMT credit up to 100% of the AMT credit. In response to the impact of the CARES Act, the Company received the remaining AMT credit of $429 thousand for AMT previously paid during the three months ended September 30, 2020.

FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes” addresses the accounting for uncertainty in income tax recognized in an entity’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. The Company had no unrecognized tax benefit for the three and six months ended December 31, 2020 or 2019.

Loss carryovers are generally subject to modification by tax authorities until three years after they have been utilized; as such, the Company is subject to examination for the fiscal years ended 2001 through present for federal purposes and fiscal years ended 2006 through present for state purposes.

(12) Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to various lawsuits and other claims in the normal course of business. In addition, from time to time, the Company receives communications from government or regulatory agencies concerning investigations or allegations of noncompliance with laws or regulations in jurisdictions in which the Company operates.

The Company establishes reserves for the estimated losses on specific contingent liabilities, for regulatory and legal actions where the Company deems a loss to be probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. In other instances, the Company is not able to make a reasonable estimate of liability because of the uncertainties related to the outcome or the amount or range of potential loss.

Subsequent to the end of the second quarter of fiscal year 2021 and as of February 9, 2021, the Company has sold 1,139,323 shares of common stock pursuant to the Wainwright ATM Agreement. In connection with the sales of these shares of common stock, the Company has received net proceeds of approximately $3.5 million. The weighted-average sale price per shares was $3.14.

On February 11, 2021, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain purchasers named therein, pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell, in a registered direct offering (the “February Registered Offering”), 2,845,535 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s Common Stock at an offering price of $3.25 per share.

The February Registered Offering resulted in gross proceeds of approximately $9.25 million before deducting the placement agent’s fees and related offering expenses.

The Company will also issue to the Placement Agent, or its designees, warrants (the “Placement Agent’s Warrants”) to purchase up to 199,187 shares of Common

Stock, which represents 6.0% of the Shares sold in the February Registered Offering. The Placement Agent’s Warrants have an exercise price of $4.06 per share, which represents 125% of the per share offering price of the Shares and a termination date of February 11, 2026.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following information should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in Part I, Item 1 of this Report.

Business Overview

Astrotech Corporation (Nasdaq: ASTC) (“Astrotech,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a Delaware corporation organized in 1984, is a science and technology development and commercialization company that launches, manages, and builds scalable companies based on innovative technology in order to maximize shareholder value.

The Company’s efforts are focused on commercializing its platform mass spectrometry technology through its wholly-owned subsidiaries:

•

Astrotech Technologies, Inc. (“ATI”) owns and licenses intellectual property related to the Astrotech Mass Spectrometer Technology™ (the “AMS Technology”).

•

1^st Detect Corporation (“1^st Detect”) is a manufacturer of explosives and narcotics trace detectors developed for use at airports, secured facilities, and borders worldwide. 1^st Detect holds an exclusive AMS Technology license from ATI for airport security applications.

•

AgLAB, Inc. (“AgLAB”) is developing a series of mass spectrometers for use in the agriculture market for process control and the detection of trace amounts of solvents and pesticides. AgLAB holds an exclusive AMS Technology license from ATI for agriculture applications.

•

BreathTech Corporation (“BreathTech”) is developing a breath analysis tool to screen for volatile organic compound (“VOC”) metabolites found in a person’s breath that could indicate they may have an infection, including COVID-19 or pneumonia. BreathTech holds an exclusive AMS Technology license from ATI for breath analysis applications.

Our Business Units

Astrotech Technologies, Inc.

ATI owns and licenses the AMS Technology, the platform mass spectrometry technology originally developed by 1^st Detect. The intellectual property includes 32 granted patents and two additional patents in process along with extensive trade secrets. With a number of diverse market opportunities for the core technology, ATI is structured to license the intellectual property for different fields of use. ATI currently licenses the AMS Technology to three wholly-owned subsidiaries of Astrotech, including to 1^st Detect for use in the security and detection market, to AgLAB for use in the agriculture market, and to BreathTech for use in breath analysis.

1^st Detect Corporation

1^st Detect, an exclusive licensee of ATI for the security and detection market, has developed the TRACER 1000™, the world’s first mass spectrometer (“MS”) based explosives trace detector (“ETD”) certified by the European Civil Aviation Conference (“ECAC”), designed to replace the ETDs used at airports, cargo facilities, secured facilities, and borders worldwide. We believe that ETD customers are unsatisfied with the currently deployed ETD technology, which is driven by ion mobility spectrometry (“IMS”). We believe that IMS-based ETDs are fraught with false positives, as they often misidentify personal care products and other common household chemicals as explosives, causing unnecessary delays, frustration, and significant wasted security resources. In addition, there are hundreds of different types of explosives, but IMS-based ETDs have a very limited threat detection library reserved only for those several explosives of largest concern. Adding additional compounds to the detection library of an IMS-based ETD fundamentally reduces the instrument’s performance, further increasing the likelihood of false alarms. In contrast, adding additional compounds does not degrade the TRACER 1000’s detection capabilities, as it has a virtually unlimited and easily expandable threat library. With terrorist threats becoming more numerous, sophisticated, and lethal, security professionals have been looking for better instrumentation, and specifically for mass spectrometry, to address the evolving threats, but mass spectrometry has long been too expensive, too cumbersome, and not practical for security applications until the launch of the TRACER 1000.

In order to sell the TRACER 1000 to airport and cargo security customers in the European Union, ECAC certification is required. Certain other countries also accept ECAC certification. After receiving ECAC certification for the TRACER 1000 on February 21, 2019, we are now marketing to and taking orders from airports and cargo facilities outside of the U.S. that accept ECAC certification.

On June 26, 2019, the Company announced the official launch of the TRACER 1000, and on November 22, 2019, we announced our first commercial sale of TRACER 1000 units to a global shipping and logistics company.

In the United States, we are working with the Transportation Security Administration (“TSA”) towards Air Cargo certification. On March 27, 2018, we announced that the TRACER 1000 was accepted into TSA’s Air Cargo Screening Technology Qualification Test (“ACSQT”) and, on April 4, 2018, we announced that the TRACER 1000 was beginning testing with TSA for passenger screening at airports. On November 14, 2019, we announced that the TRACER 1000 had been selected by the TSA’s Innovation Task Force to conduct live checkpoint screening at Miami International Airport. With similar protocols as ECAC testing, we have received valuable feedback from all programs. Following ECAC certification and the Company's early traction within the cargo market, testing for cargo security continued with the TSA. With the COVID-19 pandemic, all testing within the TSA was put on hold; however, cargo non-detection testing resumed this summer, and we subsequently announced on September 9, 2020 that the TRACER 1000 passed the non-detection testing portion of the TSA’s ACSQT. TSA cargo detection testing resumed this fall and continues to move forward. This is the next and final step to be listed on the Air Cargo Screening Technology List (“ACSTL”) as an “approved” device and, if approved, thereby approved for cargo sales in the United States. Given the deterioration in air traffic caused by the pandemic, TSA certification testing for passenger checkpoint security has been put on indefinite hold.

AgLAB Inc.

AgLAB, an exclusive licensee of ATI for the agriculture market, has developed the AgLAB-1000™ series of mass spectrometers for process control and in the detection of trace levels of solvents and pesticides. The AgLAB product line is a derivative of the Company’s core AMS Technology. The AMS Technology provides a significant competitive advantage due to its small size, rugged design, quick analysis, ease of use, and affordability. These attributes are valuable for agriculture applications in both processing facilities and in the field.

BreathTech Corporation

BreathTech, an exclusive licensee of ATI for breath analysis, is developing the BreathTest-1000™, a breath analysis tool to screen for VOC metabolites found in a person’s breath that could indicate they may have an infection, including COVID-19 or pneumonia.

Development of the BreathTest-1000 follows the Company’s positive results in pre-clinical trials for the BreathDetect-1000™, a rapid self-serve breathalyzer that detects bacterial infections in the respiratory tract, including pneumonia. The pre-clinical trials were conducted in collaboration with UT Health San Antonio in 2017.

On October 20, 2020, we announced a joint development agreement with the Cleveland Clinic Foundation to explore leveraging the BreathTest-1000 to rapidly screen for COVID-19 or related indicators. The goal of the agreement is to develop a non-invasive device that will use breath samples to identify COVID-19 strains, with the potential to provide a low-cost, self-service screening option that could be deployed on a large-scale.

Trends and Uncertainties - COVID-19

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic.

We are subject to risks and uncertainties as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business is uncertain and difficult to predict, as the responses that we, other businesses, and governments are taking continue to evolve. Furthermore, capital markets and economies worldwide have also been negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and it is possible that it could cause a prolonged global economic recession. Policymakers around the globe have responded with fiscal policy actions to support the economy as a whole. The magnitude and overall effectiveness of these actions remain uncertain.

To date, we have seen delays with respect to the TSA certification process and parts of our supply chain as a result of COVID-19. In addition, with a reduction in air travel caused by the pandemic, we are seeing a reduction in near-term demand for ETDs at checkpoints.

It is possible that the continued spread of COVID-19 could cause further disruption in our supply chain; cause delay, or limit the ability of customers to perform, including in making timely payments to the Company; cause further delay in regulatory certification testing of our instruments; impact investment performance; and cause other unpredictable events. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may in the future materially impact our financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations is uncertain.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosures. We base our 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. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Results of Operations

Three months ended December 31, 2020, compared to three months ended December 31, 2019:

Selected consolidated financial data for the quarters ended December 31, 2020, and 2019 is as follows:

	Three Months Ended December 31,
(In thousands)	2020			2019
Revenue	$	130		$	205
Cost of revenue		128			196
Gross profit		2			9
Gross margin		2	%		4	%
Operating expenses:
Selling, general and administrative		803			1,110
Research and development		758			939
Total operating expenses		1,561			2,049
Loss from operations		(1,559	)		(2,040	)
Interest and other expense, net		(63	)		(43	)
Income tax benefit		—			—
Net loss	$	(1,622	)	$	(2,083	)

Revenue – Total revenue decreased $75 thousand during the second quarter of fiscal 2021, compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The decrease was due to the timing of orders. All of the revenue generated in the second quarters of fiscal 2021 and 2020 was from the sales of our TRACER 1000.

Cost of Revenue – Gross profit is comprised of revenue less cost of revenue. In the second quarters of fiscal 2021 and 2020, cost of revenue was comprised of labor, materials, shipping, warranty reserve, and overhead related to the sale of TRACER 1000 units. Gross margin was in the single digits as we have low volume production and certain costs related to refining our product for the cargo environment. Gross margin should improve as we increase production and benefit from associated volume discounts, and as we further enhance our technology for the cargo environment. Gross margin remained consistent in the second quarter fiscal 2021, compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2020.

Operating Expenses – Operating expenses decreased $488 thousand, or 24%, during the second quarter of fiscal 2021, compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2020. Significant changes to operating expenses include the following:

•

Selling, general and administrative decreased $307 thousand, or 28%, due to a decrease in office rent and related expenses associated with the former corporate office. In addition, due to COVID-19, our expenses related to travel and conferences also declined. Finally, we also had a decline in compensation and related expenses due to a reduction in headcount.

•

Research and development decreased $181 thousand, or 19%, during the second quarter of fiscal 2021, compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2020. This decrease is mainly due to decreases in compensation and related expenses as well as less materials purchased for R&D purposes as development of the core AMS Technology is largely complete.

Income Taxes – Income tax benefit did not change during the second quarter of fiscal 2021, compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The realization of tax benefits depends on the existence of future taxable income. Pursuant to ASC 740 “Income Taxes”, a valuation allowance has been established on all of the Company’s deferred tax assets.

Six months ended December 31, 2020, compared to six months ended December 31, 2019:

Selected consolidated financial data for the six months ended December 31, 2020, and 2019 is as follows:

	Six Months Ended December 31,
(In thousands)	2020			2019
Revenue	$	270		$	206
Cost of revenue		241			196
Gross profit		29			10
Gross margin		11	%		5	%
Operating expenses:
Selling, general and administrative		1,729			2,312
Research and development		1,367			1,794
Disposal of corporate lease		544			—
Total operating expenses		3,640			4,106
Loss from operations		(3,611	)		(4,096	)
Interest and other income, net		(122	)		(55	)
Income tax benefit		—			—
Net loss	$	(3,733	)	$	(4,151	)

Revenue – Total revenue increased $64 thousand during the six months ended December 31, 2020, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019. All of the material revenue generated during each of the six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 was from the sales of our TRACER 1000 units.

Cost of Revenue – Gross profit is comprised of revenue less cost of revenue. During each of the six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, cost of revenue was comprised of labor, materials, overhead, warranty reserve, and shipping related to the above sales. Gross margin increased to 11% during the six months ended December 31, 2020, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019, as the margin in the prior period was driven by the FIFO inventory methodology where much of the inventory used to build the TRACER 1000 had R&D volume pricing.

Operating Expenses – Operating expenses decreased $466 thousand, or 11%, during the six months ended December 31, 2020, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019. Significant changes to operating expenses include the following:

•

Selling, general and administrative decreased $583 thousand, or 25%, due to decreases in office rent and related expenses associated with the former corporate office. In addition, due to COVID-19, our expenses related to travel and conferences also declined. Finally, we also had a decrease in compensation and related expenses due to a reduction in headcount.

•

Research and development decreased $427 thousand, or 24%, mainly due to decreases in compensation and related expenses as well as less materials purchased for R&D purposes as development of the core AMS Technology is largely complete.

•

Disposal of long-lived assets increased $544 thousand due to our termination of our corporate office lease and the disposal of the leasehold improvement assets and right-of-use assets and lease liabilities associated with that lease. As a result of this termination, our net cash savings will be approximately $870 thousand over the next three years.

Income Taxes – Income tax benefit did not change during the six months ended December 31, 2020, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019. The realization of tax benefits depends on the existence of future taxable income. Pursuant to ASC 740 “Income Taxes”, a valuation allowance has been established on all of the Company’s deferred tax assets.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following is a summary of the change in our cash and cash equivalents:

	Six Months Ended December 31,
(In thousands)	2020			2019			Change
Change in cash and cash equivalents:
Net cash used in operating activities	$	(2,498	)	$	(3,356	)	$	858
Net cash used in investing activities		(16	)		—			(16	)
Net cash provided by financing activities		21,828			2,772			19,056
Net change in cash and cash equivalents	$	19,314		$	(584	)	$	19,898

Cash and Cash Equivalents

As of December 31, 2020, we held cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of $22.7 million, and our working capital was approximately $18.8 million. As of June 30, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3.3 million, and our working capital was approximately $0.3 million. Cash and cash equivalents increased $19.3 million as of December 31, 2020, compared to June 30, 2020, due to public offerings of common stock with net proceeds of approximately $21.8 million, partially offset by funding our normal operating activities and research and development initiatives.

Operating Activities

Cash used in operating activities decreased $0.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2020, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019, primarily due to a reduction in our expenses as well as a decrease in accounts receivable from receiving the remaining alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) credit.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities increased $16 thousand for the six months ended December 31, 2020, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019, due to purchases of equipment.

Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities increased $19.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2020, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019, due to the net proceeds from sale of common stock of $21.8 million in the current period, compared to a note payable from a related party as well as the sale of shares of common stock through an “at the market offering” program in the prior period.

Liquidity

Our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 indicated substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. On October 23, 2020, we completed a public offering of our common stock, raising gross proceeds of $18.0 million, and on October 30, 2020, we also completed a registered direct offering of our common stock, raising gross proceeds of $6.2 million. We believe this solves our liquidity issue, and we no longer have substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We will continue to evaluate opportunities to further strengthen our liquidity, including selling the Company or a portion thereof, licensing some of our technology, raising additional funds through the capital markets, debt financing, equity financing, merging, or engaging in a strategic partnership.

Income Taxes

The CARES Act was signed into law on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act provided certain tax relief measures including the acceleration of the AMT credit previously paid. The CARES Act allows for the acceleration of the refundable AMT credit up to

100% of the AMT credit. In response to the impact of the CARES Act, the Company received the remaining AMT credit of $429 thousand for AMT previously paid during the three months ended September 30, 2020.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2020, or June 30, 2020.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on the evaluation and criteria of these disclosure controls and procedures, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the six months ended December 31, 2020 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

As of December 31, 2020, we are not involved in any pending or threatened legal proceedings that we believe could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. From time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings and business disputes involving ordinary routine legal matters and claims incidental to our business. The ultimate legal and financial liability with respect to such matters generally cannot be estimated with certainty and requires the use of estimates in recording liabilities for potential litigation settlements or awards against us. Estimates for losses from litigation are made after consultation with outside counsel. If estimates of potential losses increase or the related facts and circumstances change in the future, we may be required to record either more or less litigation expense.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Our stock price has fluctuated in the past, has recently been volatile and may be volatile in the future, and as a result, investors in our common stock could incur substantial losses.

Our stock price has fluctuated in the past, has recently been volatile and may be volatile in the future. By way of example, on February 1, 2021, the price of our common stock closed at $2.11 per share, while on February 10, 2021, our stock price closed at $4.05 per share with no discernable announcements or developments by the Company or third parties. On January 14, 2021, the intra-day sales price of our common stock fluctuated between a reported low sale price of $2.24 and a reported high sales price of $2.58. We may incur rapid and substantial decreases in our stock price in the foreseeable future that are unrelated to our operating performance or prospects. In addition, the recent outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) has caused broad stock market and industry fluctuations. The stock market in general and the market for companies such as ours in particular have experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. As a result of this volatility, investors may experience losses on their investment in our common stock. The market price for our common stock may be influenced by many factors, including the following:

•

investor reaction to our business strategy;

•

the success of competitive products or technologies;

•

our continued compliance with the NASDAQ listing standards;

•

regulatory or legal developments in the United States and other countries, especially changes in laws or regulations applicable to our products;

•

actions taken by regulatory agencies with respect to our products, manufacturing process or sales and marketing terms;

•

variations in our financial results or those of companies that are perceived to be similar to us;

•

the success of our efforts to acquire or in-license additional products or product candidates;

•

developments concerning our collaborations or partners;

•

developments or disputes concerning patents or other proprietary rights, including patents, litigation matters and our ability to obtain patent protection for our products;

•

our ability or inability to raise additional capital and the terms on which we raise it;

•

declines in the market prices of stocks generally;

•

trading volume of our common stock;

•

sales of our common stock by us or our stockholders;

•

general economic, industry and market conditions; and

•

other events or factors, including those resulting from such events, or the prospect of such events, including war, terrorism and other international conflicts, public health issues including health epidemics or pandemics, such as the recent outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19), and natural disasters such as fire, hurricanes, earthquakes, tornados or other adverse weather and climate conditions, whether occurring in the United States or elsewhere, could disrupt our operations, disrupt the operations of our suppliers or result in political or economic instability.

These broad market and industry factors may seriously harm the market price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance. Further, recent increases are significantly inconsistent with any improvements in actual or expected operating performance, financial condition or other indicators of value, including our loss per share of $1.31 and $0.27 for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 and the three months ended September 30, 2020. Since the stock price of our common stock has fluctuated

in the past, has been recently volatile and may be volatile in the future, investors in our common stock could incur substantial losses. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted against companies. Such litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and diversion of management’s attention and resources, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects. There can be no guarantee that our stock price will remain at current levels or that future sales of our common stock will not be at prices lower than those sold to investors.

Additionally, securities of certain companies have recently experienced significant and extreme volatility in stock price due short sellers of shares of common stock, known as a “short squeeze.” These short squeezes have caused extreme volatility in both the stock prices of those companies and in the market, and have led to the price per share of those companies to trade at a significantly inflated rate that is disconnected from the underlying value of the company. Many investors who have purchased shares in those companies at an inflated rate face the risk of losing a significant portion of their original investment, as in many cases the price per share has declined steadily as interest in those stocks have abated. While we have no reason to believe our shares would be the target of a short squeeze, there can be no assurance that we won’t be in the future, and you may lose a significant portion or all of your investment if you purchase our shares at a rate that is significantly disconnected from our underlying value.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

On October 28, 2020, the Company issued the Placement Agent Warrants No. 2 to the Placement Agent. The Placement Agent Warrants and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Placement Agent Warrants have not been registered under the Securities Act and were issued in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act afforded by Section 4(a)(2) thereof.
