CREXENDO, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
 
1.            
Significant Accounting Policies
 
Description of Business - Crexendo, Inc. is incorporated in the state of Nevada. As used hereafter in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements, we refer to Crexendo, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, as “we,” “us,” or “our Company.” Crexendo is a next-generation CLEC and an award-winning leader and provider of unified communications cloud telecom services, broadband Internet services, and other cloud business services that are designed to provide enterprise-class cloud services to any size business at affordable monthly rates. The Company has two operating segments, which consist of Cloud Telecommunications and Web Services.
 
Basis of Presentation – The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of Crexendo, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, which include Crexendo Business Solutions, Inc. and Crexendo International, Inc. All intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the results of operations, financial position, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows of our Company.
 
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.
 
 Cash and Cash Equivalents - We consider all highly liquid, short-term investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had cash and cash equivalents in financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits in the amount of $888,000 and $1,038,000, respectively.
 
Restricted Cash – We classified $100,000 and $100,000 as restricted cash as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. Cash is restricted for compensating balance requirements on purchasing card agreements. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had restricted cash in financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits in the amount of $100,000 and $100,000, respectively.
 
The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash reported on the balance sheet to the cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows (in thousands):
 
 
 
March 31,
 
 
 
2018
 
Cash and cash equivalents
 $1,117,000 
Restricted cash
  100,000 
Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the condensed
    
  consolidated statement of cash flows
 $1,217,000 
 
Trade Receivables – Trade receivables from our cloud telecommunications and web services segments are recorded at invoiced amounts. We have historically offered to our web site development software customers the option to finance, typically through twenty-four and thirty-six month extended payment term agreements (“EPTAs”). EPTAs are reflected as short-term and long-term trade receivables, as applicable, as we have the intent and ability to hold the receivables for the foreseeable future, until maturity or payoff. EPTAs are recorded on a nonaccrual cash basis beginning on the contract date.
 
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts –The allowance represents estimated losses resulting from customers’ failure to make required payments. The allowance estimate is based on historical collection experience, specific identification of probable bad debts based on collection efforts, aging of trade receivables, customer payment history, and other known factors, including current economic conditions. We believe that the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate based on our assessment to date, however, actual collection results may differ materially from our expectations.
 
Contract Assets – Contract assets primarily relate to the Company’s rights to consideration for work completed but not billed as of the reporting date. The contract assets are transferred to receivables when the rights become unconditional.
 
 
7
 
 
Contract Costs - Contract costs primarily relate to incremental commission costs paid to sales representatives and sales leadership as a result of obtaining telecommunications contracts which are recoverable. The Company capitalized contract costs in the amount of $747,000 and $743,000 at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. Capitalized commission costs are amortized based on the transfer of goods or services to which the assets relate which typically range from thirty-six to sixty months, and are included in selling and marketing expenses. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company amortized $112,000 and $92,000, respectively, and there was no impairment loss in relation to the costs capitalized.
 
Inventory – Finished goods telecommunications equipment inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value (first-in, first-out method). In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, we regularly evaluate whether inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. If net realizable value is less than cost, the write-down is recognized as a loss in earnings in the period in which the excess occurs.
 
Certificate of Deposit - Certificate of Deposit (“CD”) is collateral for merchant accounts. In March 2017, the bank removed the collateral requirement; therefore we sold the CD and transferred the proceeds to our cash and cash equivalents.
 
Property and Equipment - Depreciation and amortization expense is computed using the straight-line method in amounts sufficient to allocate the cost of depreciable assets over their estimated useful lives ranging from two to five years. The cost of leasehold improvements is amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the term of the related lease. Depreciation expense is included in general and administrative expenses and totaled $1,000 and $3,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Depreciable lives by asset group are as follows:
 
Computer and office equipment
2 to 5 years
Computer software
3 years
Furniture and fixtures
4 years
Leasehold improvements
2 to 5 years
 
Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. The cost and accumulated depreciation of property and equipment sold or otherwise retired are removed from the accounts and any related gain or loss on disposition is reflected in the statement of operations.
 
Goodwill – Goodwill is tested for impairment using a fair-value-based approach on an annual basis (December 31) and between annual tests if indicators of potential impairment exist.
 
Intangible Assets - Our intangible assets consist primarily of customer relationships and developed technology. The intangible assets are amortized following the patterns in which the economic benefits are consumed. We periodically review the estimated useful lives of our intangible assets and review these assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. The determination of impairment is based on estimates of future undiscounted cash flows. If an intangible asset is considered to be impaired, the amount of the impairment will be equal to the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the asset.
 
Contract Liabilities – Our contract liabilities consist primarily of advance consideration received from customers for telecommunications contracts. The product and monthly service revenue is recognized on completion of the implementation and the remaining activation fees are reclassified as deferred revenue.
 
Use of Estimates - In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements, management makes assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reported periods.  Specific estimates and judgments include valuation of goodwill and intangible assets in connection with business acquisitions, allowances for doubtful accounts, uncertainties related to certain income tax benefits, valuation of deferred income tax assets, valuations of share-based payments and recoverability of long-lived assets.  Management’s estimates are based on historical experience and on our expectations that are believed to be reasonable.  The combination of these factors forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from our current estimates and those differences may be material.
 
Product and Service Revenue Recognition - Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products or services and excludes any amounts collected on behalf of third parties. We enter into contracts that can include various combinations of products and services, which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. We recognize revenue for delivered elements only when we determine there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance. Changes in the allocation of the sales price between delivered and undelivered elements can impact the timing of revenue recognized but does not change the total revenue recognized on any agreement. Revenue is recognized net of any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities. For more detailed information about revenue, see Note 3.
 
 
8
 
 
Cost of Service Revenue – Cost of service includes Cloud Telecommunications and Web Services cost of service revenue. Cloud Telecommunications cost of service revenue primarily consists of fees we pay to third-party telecommunications and broadband Internet providers, costs of other third party services we resell, personnel and travel expenses related to system implementation, and customer service. Web Services cost of service revenue consists primarily of customer service costs and outsourcing fees related to fulfillment of our professional web management services.
 
Cost of Product Revenue – Cost of product revenue primarily consists of the costs associated with the purchase of desktop devices and other third party equipment we purchase for resale.
 
Research and Development - Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Costs related to internally developed software are expensed as research and development expense until technological feasibility has been achieved, after which the costs are capitalized.
 
Fair Value Measurements - The fair value of our financial assets and liabilities was determined based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value which are the following: 
 
Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for the identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
 
Level 2 — Other observable inputs available at the measurement date, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, either directly or indirectly, including:
 
·      Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
·      Quoted prices for identical or similar assets in non-active markets;
·      Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and
·      Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by other observable market data.
 
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data and reflect the use of significant management judgment.  These values are generally determined using pricing models for which the assumptions utilize management’s estimates of market participant assumptions.
 
Notes Payable – We record notes payable net of any discounts or premiums. Discounts and premiums are amortized as interest expense or income over the life of the note in such a way as to result in a constant rate of interest when applied to the amount outstanding at the beginning of any given period.
 
Income Taxes - We recognize a liability or asset for the deferred tax consequences of all temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years when the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Accruals for uncertain tax positions are provided for in accordance with accounting guidance. Accordingly, we may recognize the tax benefits from an uncertain tax position only if it is more-likely-than-not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Accounting guidance is also provided on de-recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and income tax disclosures. Judgment is required in assessing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the financial statements or tax returns. Variations in the actual outcome of these future tax consequences could materially impact our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, we evaluate all significant available positive and negative evidence, including historical operating results, estimates of future taxable income and the existence of prudent and feasible tax planning strategies. We have placed a full valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets.
 
Interest and penalties associated with income taxes are classified as income tax expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
 
 
9
 
 
Stock-Based Compensation - For equity-classified awards, compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period based on the computed fair value on the grant date of the award.  Equity classified awards include the issuance of stock options.
 
Comprehensive Loss – There were no other components of comprehensive loss other than net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.
 
Operating Segments - Accounting guidance establishes standards for the way public business enterprises are to report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires enterprises to report selected information about operating segments in financial reports issued to stockholders. The Company has two operating segments, which consist of Cloud Telecommunications and Web Services. Research and development expenses are allocated to Cloud Telecommunications and Web Services segments based on the level of effort, measured primarily by wages and benefits attributed to our engineering department.  Indirect sales and marketing expenses are allocated to the Cloud Telecommunications and Web Services segments based on level of effort, measured by month-to-date contract bookings.  General and administrative expenses are allocated to both segments based on revenue recognized for each segment. Accounting guidance also establishes standards for related disclosure about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. We generate over 90% of our total revenue from customers within North America (United States and Canada) and less than 10% of our total revenues from customers in other parts of the world.
 
Significant Customers – No customer accounted for 10% or more of our total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. One telecommunications services customer accounted for 11% and 10% of total trade accounts receivable as of March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
 
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements - In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory, which will require an entity to measure in scope inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using LIFO or the retail inventory method. The amendments do not apply to inventory that is measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method. The amendments apply to all other inventory, which includes inventory that is measured using first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost. We adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805) Clarifying the Definition of a Business, that provides guidance to assist entities with evaluating when a set of transferred assets and activities (set) is a business. Under the new guidance, an entity first determines whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. If this threshold is met, the set is not a business. If it’s not met, the entity then evaluates whether the set meets the requirement that a business include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. Under today’s guidance, it doesn’t matter whether all the value relates primarily to one asset. Under ASU 2017-01, a set is not a business when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. The ASU includes guidance on which types of assets can and cannot be combined into a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets for the purpose of applying the threshold. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those years. We adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2018. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. As a result, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows.
 
On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new accounting standards. Amounts generally described as restricted cash are now presented with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. As a result of adoption, there was no impact to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. A reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash presented on the balance sheet to the totals presented in the statement of cash flows as cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash has been added to the footnote disclosures, see Note 1.
 
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which amends ASC 230, to clarify guidance on the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows. The changes to the classification of how certain cash receipts and payments are presented within the statement of cash flows had no impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

The adoption of these new ASUs required us to restate the previously reported cash and cash equivalent amounts reported in prior periods to include restricted cash, see Note 2-Changes in Accounting Principles.
 
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which requires that a performance target that affects vesting and could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. A reporting entity should apply existing guidance in ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, as it relates to such awards. ASU 2014-12 is effective for us in our first quarter of fiscal 2017 with early adoption permitted using either of two methods: (i) prospective to all awards granted or modified after the effective date; or (ii) retrospective to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter, with the cumulative effect of applying ASU 2014-12 as an adjustment to the opening retained earnings balance as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements. The Company adopted ASU 2014-12 effective January 1, 2017. The adoption of this ASU did not impact our condensed consolidated financial statements, as there are no performance targets associated with outstanding awards.
 
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The objective of ASU 2014-09 is to establish a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2018 utilizing the full retrospective method of adoption allowed by the standard, in order to provide for comparative results in all periods presented. Under the standard, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. We elected to adopt the standard effective January 1, 2018, using the full retrospective method, which required us to restate each prior reporting period presented, see Note 2-Changes in Accounting Principles. The most significant impact of the standard relates to our accounting for incremental costs to obtain a contract and principal versus agent considerations. Specifically, incremental sales leadership commission were expensed immediately rather than ratably over the term of the related contracts. Revenue from the resell of broadband Internet services and professional website management services were recognized on a gross basis as a principal rather than on net basis as an agent. The new standard focuses on control of the specified goods and service as the overarching principle and the Company does not control the delivery of the goods and services. Revenue recognition related to our hardware, telecommunications services and website hosting services remains substantially unchanged. See Note 2 for disclosures related to changes in accounting policies.
 
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting, the amendments provide guidance on determining which changes to the terms and conditions of share-based payment awards require an entity to apply modification accounting under Topic 718. Effective for all entities for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company adopted ASU 2017-09 effective January 1, 2018. The adoption of this ASU did not impact our condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test is performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In addition, income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit should be considered when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The amendments also eliminate the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. This guidance is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2017-04 should be adopted on a prospective basis. The Company is in the process of evaluating the potential impact of this new ASU on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, in order to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for those leases classified as operating leases under previous Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). The ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee should recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (including interim periods within those periods) using a modified retrospective approach and early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new ASU on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Changes in Accounting Principles
 
Except for the changes below, the Company has consistently applied the accounting principles to all periods presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company adopted Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers with a date of the initial application of January 1, 2018. As a result, the Company has changed its accounting policies for revenue recognition as detailed below.
 
The Company applied Topic 606 retrospectively using the practical expedient in paragraph 606-10-65-1(f)(3), under which the Company does not disclose the amount of consideration allocated to the remaining performance obligations or an explanation of when the Company expects to recognize that amount as revenue for all reporting periods presented before the date of the initial application – i.e. January 1, 2018. The details of the significant changes and quantitative impact of the changes are disclosed below.
 
A.            
Commission fees payable
 
The Company previously recognized management level indirect sales commission expense related to contracts as selling expenses when they were incurred. Under Topic 606, the Company capitalizes those commission fees as costs of obtaining a contract, when they are incremental and, if they are expected to be recovered, it amortizes them consistently with the pattern of transfer of the good or service over the specific contract life or the average contract life for the group of contracts that resulted in the achievement of the sales commissions. If the expected amortization period is one year or less, the commission fee is expensed when incurred. The adoption of this new accounting policy resulted in a cumulative adjustment to the accumulated deficit related to the incremental contract acquisition cost that was previously expensed being capitalized. Refer to Impacts to Previously Reported Results below for the impact of adoption of the standard on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
B.            
Principal versus agent considerations
 
For the majority of our contracts, we expect no changes. We have certain contracts where we recognize revenue from reselling third party products and services, such as broadband Internet access and professional website management services as a principal on a gross basis. Under Topic 606, the Company recognizes revenue on a net basis as an agent. The new standard focuses on control of the specified goods and service as the overarching principle and the Company does not control the delivery of the goods and services. The adoption of this new accounting policy required us to restate certain previously reported results, including the reduction of service revenue and related cost of service revenue. There was no impact on the accumulated deficit as a result of any changes to our current policy. Refer to Impacts to Previously Reported Results below for the impact of adoption of the standard on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
The Company adopted ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash. As a result, amounts generally described as restricted cash are included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. Refer to Impacts of Previously Reported Results below for the impact of the standard on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Revenue
 
Revenue is measured based on a consideration specified in a contract with a customer, and excludes any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer. Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a customer, are excluded from revenue. The following is a description of principal activities – separated by reportable segments – from which the Company generates its revenue. For more detailed information about reportable segments, see Note 14.
 
Telecommunications Segment
 
Products and services may be sold separately or in bundled packages. The typical length of a contract for service is thirty-six to sixty months. Customers are billed for these services on a monthly basis. For bundled packages, the Company accounts for individual products and services separately if they are distinct – i.e. if a product or service is separately identifiable from other items in the bundled package and if a customer can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the customer. The consideration (including any discounts) is allocated between separate products and services in a bundle based on their relative stand-alone selling prices. The stand-alone selling prices are determined based on the prices at which the Company separately sells the desktop devices and telecommunication services. For items that are not sold separately (e.g. additional features) the Company estimates stand-alone selling prices using the adjusted market assessment approach. When we provide a free trial period, we do not begin to recognize recurring revenue until the trial period has ended and the customer has been billed for the services.
 
Desktop Devices - Revenue generated from the sale of telecommunications equipment (desktop devices) is recognized when the customer takes possession of the devices and the cloud telecommunications services begin. The Company typically bills and collects the fees for the equipment upon entering into a contract with a customer. Cash receipts are recorded as a contract liability until implementation is complete and the services begin.
 
 
14
 
 
Equipment Financing Revenue - Fees generated from renting our cloud telecommunication equipment (IP or cloud telephone desktop devices) through leasing contracts are recognized as revenue based on whether the lease qualifies as an operating lease or sales-type lease. The two primary accounting provisions which we use to classify transactions as sales-type or operating leases are: 1) lease term to determine if it is equal to or greater than 75% of the economic life of the equipment and 2) the present value of the minimum lease payments to determine if they are equal to or greater than 90% of the fair market value of the equipment at the inception of the lease. The economic life of most of our products is estimated to be three years, since this represents the most frequent contractual lease term for our products, and there is no residual value for used equipment. Residual values, if any, are established at the lease inception using estimates of fair value at the end of the lease term. The vast majority of our leases that qualify as sales-type leases are non-cancelable and include cancellation penalties approximately equal to the full value of the lease receivables. Leases that do not meet the criteria for sales-type lease accounting are accounted for as operating leases. Revenue from sales-type leases is recognized upon installation and the interest portion is deferred and recognized as earned. Revenue from operating leases in recognized ratably over the applicable service period.
 
Cloud Telecommunications Services - Telecommunication services include voice, data, and collaboration software. The Company recognizes revenue as services are provided in service revenue. Telecommunications services are billed and paid on a monthly basis.
 
Broadband Internet Access – Fees generated from reselling broadband Internet access are recognized as revenue net of the costs charged by the third party service providers. Broadband Internet access services are billed and paid on a monthly basis.
 
Professional Services Revenue – Professional services revenue includes activation fees and any professional installation services. Installation services are recognized as revenue when the services are completed. The Company generally allocates a portion of the activation fees to the desktop devices, which is recognized at the time of the installation or customer acceptance, and a portion to the service, which is recognized over the contract term using the straight-line method. Our telecommunications services contracts typically have a term of thirty-six to sixty months.
 
Commission Revenue - We have affiliate agreements with third-party entities that are resellers of satellite television services and Internet service providers. We receive commissions when the services are bundled with our offerings and we recognize commission revenue when received.
 
Web Services Segment
 
Website Hosting Service – Fees generated from hosting customer websites are recognized as revenue as the services are provided in service revenue. Website hosting services are billed and collected on a monthly basis.
 
Professional Website Management Service and Other– Fees generated from reselling professional website management services are recognized as revenue net of the costs charged by the third party service providers. Professional website management services are billed and paid on a monthly basis.
 
Disaggregation of Revenue
 
In the following table, revenue is disaggregated by primary major product line, and timing of revenue recognition. The table also includes a reconciliation of the disaggregated revenue with the reportable segments.

Net Loss Per Common Share
 
Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed giving effect to all dilutive common stock equivalents, consisting of common stock options and warrants. Diluted net loss per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 is the same as basic net loss per common share because the common share equivalents were anti-dilutive due to the net loss. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per common share:

Notes Payable
 
Related-Party Note Payable
 
On December 30, 2015, Crexendo, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a Term Loan Agreement (the "Loan Agreement"), with Steven G. Mihaylo, as Trustee of The Steven G. Mihaylo Trust dated August 19, 1999 (the "Lender"). Mr. Mihaylo is the principal shareholder and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The term of the Loan is five years, with simple interest paid at 9% per annum until a balloon payment is due December 30, 2020. The Loan Agreement provides for interest to be paid in shares of common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) at a stock price of $1.20. For the first two years of the Loan term, interest will be paid in advance at the beginning of each year; for the last three years of the Loan term, interest will be paid at the end of each year. After the second year of the Loan term, there is no pre-payment penalty for early repayment of the outstanding principal amount of the Loan. If the Loan is repaid within the first two years of the Loan term, the Company will forfeit prepaid interest as a pre-payment penalty.
 
In February 2017, the Company entered into a second amendment to our Loan Agreement with Steven G. Mihaylo. The amendment extends the ability of the Board of Directors to request the remaining $1.0 million available under the Loan Agreement if necessary to fund operations through May 30, 2018. All other terms remain the same as initial loan agreement.
 
In September 2017, Steven G. Mihaylo exercised 444,999 options for a total strike price of $974,000. In December 2017, Steven G. Mihaylo exercised 12,001 options for a total strike price of $22,000. The Company used the proceeds from the stock options exercise to repay $996,000 of the $1.0 million outstanding related party note payable. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company accelerated the amortization of the debt discount in the amount of $77,000 as a result of the repayment.

Income Taxes
 
Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was (6.8)% and (0.8)%, respectively, which resulted in an income tax provision of $(4,000) and $(4,000), respectively. The tax provision is due to state tax payments made with extensions filed.
 
Significant management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes and in determining whether deferred tax assets will be realized in full or in part. In assessing the recovery of the deferred tax assets, we considered whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of our deferred tax assets will not be realized.  The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.  We considered the scheduled reversals of future deferred tax assets, projected future taxable income, the suspension of the sale of product and services through the seminar sales channel, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.  As a result, we determined it was more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would not be realized; accordingly, we recorded a full valuation allowance. Subsequent to placing a full valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets, adjustments impacting our tax rate have been and are expected to continue to be insignificant.

Commitments and Contingencies
 
Operating Leases
 
We lease office space under non-cancelable operating lease agreements. Currently we have one lease agreement in Reno, NV, which is expiring in 2018. The operating lease for our Reno, NV office contains customary escalation clauses. Rental expense incurred on operating leases for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was approximately $5,000 and $5,000, respectively.

On February 28, 2014, the Company sold and leased back the land, building and furniture associated with the corporate headquarters in Tempe, Arizona to a Company that is owned by the major shareholder and CEO of the Company for $2.0 million in cash. The Company recognized a deferred gain of $281,000 on sale-leaseback, which was amortized over the initial lease term of thirty-six months to offset rent expense. Deferred gain amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was $0 and $16,000, respectively.

Three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to three months ended March 31, 2017
 
Service revenue
 
Service revenue consists primarily of fees collected for cloud telecommunications services, professional services, interest from sales-type leases, broadband Internet services, administrative fees, website hosting, and web management services. Service revenue increased 21% or $427,000, to $2,442,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $2,015,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Cloud Telecommunications service revenue increased 28% or $482,000, to $2,217,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $1,735,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Web service revenue decreased 20% or $55,000, to $225,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $280,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017.
 
Product Revenue
 
Product revenue consists primarily of fees collected for the sale of desktop phone devices and third party equipment. Product revenue increased by 31% or $87,000, to $366,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $279,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Product revenue fluctuates from one period to the next based on timing of installations. Our typical customer installation is complete within 30 days. However, larger enterprise customers can take multiple months, depending on size and the number of locations. Product revenue is recognized when products have been installed and services commence. We believe growth will initially be seen through increase in our backlog.
 
Loss Before Income Taxes
 
Loss before income tax decreased 88% or $452,000, to $59,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to loss before income tax of $511,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease in loss before income tax is primarily due to the increase in revenue of $514,000 and an increase in other income of $34,000, offset by an increase in operating expenses of $96,000.
 
Income Tax Provision
 
We had an income tax provision of $4,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to an income tax provision of $4,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. We had a pre-tax loss for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 of $59,000 and $511,000, respectively, and a full valuation allowance on all of our deferred tax assets for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
 
To evaluate our business, we consider and use non-generally accepted accounting principles (“Non-GAAP”) net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of operating performance. These measures include the same adjustments that management takes into account when it reviews and assesses operating performance on a period-to-period basis. We consider Non-GAAP net income (loss) to be an important indicator of overall business performance because it allows us to evaluate results without the effects of share-based compensation, rent expense paid with common stock, interest expense paid with common stock, and amortization of intangibles. We define EBITDA as U.S. GAAP net income (loss) before interest income, interest expense, other income and expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. We believe EBITDA provides a useful metric to investors to compare us with other companies within our industry and across industries. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA adjusted for share-based compensation, and rent expense paid with stock. We use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to review and assess operating performance. We also believe use of Adjusted EBITDA facilitates investors’ use of operating performance comparisons from period to period, as well as across companies.
 
In our May 8, 2018 earnings press release, as furnished on Form 8-K, we included Non-GAAP net loss, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. The terms Non-GAAP net loss, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA are not defined under U.S. GAAP, and are not measures of operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in analytical tools, and when assessing our operating performance, Non-GAAP net loss, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for net loss or other consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations include, but are not limited to:
 
 
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
 
they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
 
they do not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt that we may incur;
 
they do not reflect income taxes or the cash requirements for any tax payments;
 
although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will be replaced sometime in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
 
while share-based compensation is a component of operating expense, the impact on our financial statements compared to other companies can vary significantly due to such factors as the assumed life of the options and the assumed volatility of our common stock; and
 
other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
 
We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our U.S. GAAP results and using Non-GAAP net income (loss), EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA only as supplemental support for management’s analysis of business performance. Non-GAAP net income (loss), EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are calculated as follows for the periods presented.
 
RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
 
In accordance with the requirements of Regulation G issued by the SEC, we are presenting the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures and reconciling the unaudited Non-GAAP financial metrics to the comparable U.S. GAAP measures.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
 
In preparing our financial statements, we make estimates, assumptions and judgments that can have a significant impact on our revenue, operating income or loss and net income or loss, as well as on the value of certain assets and liabilities on our balance sheet. We believe that the estimates, assumptions and judgments involved in our accounting policies described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 have the greatest potential impact on our financial statements, so we consider them to be our critical accounting policies and estimates. Our senior management has reviewed the development and selection of our critical accounting policies and estimates and their disclosure in this Form 10-Q with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.

Service Revenue
 
Cloud Telecommunications service revenue consists primarily of fees collected for cloud telecommunications services, professional services, interest from sales-type leases, administrative fees, and broadband Internet services. Service revenue increased 28% or $482,000, to $2,217,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $1,735,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase in service revenue is due to an increase in contracted service revenue, usage charges, and professional services revenue of $507,000, offset by a decrease in sales-type lease interest of $25,000. A substantial portion of Cloud Telecommunications service revenue is generated through thirty-six to sixty month service contracts. As such, we believe growth in Cloud Telecommunications segment will initially be seen through increases in our backlog.
 
Product Revenue
 
Product revenue consists primarily of fees collected for the sale of desktop phone devices and third party equipment. Product revenue increased 31% or $87,000, to $366,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $279,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Product revenue fluctuates from one period to the next based on timing of installations. Our typical customer installation is complete within 30 days. However, larger enterprise customers can take multiple months, depending on size and the number of locations. Product revenue is recognized when products have been installed and services commence. We believe growth will initially be seen through increases in our backlog.
 
Backlog
 
Backlog represents the total contract value of all contracts signed, less revenue recognized from those contracts as of March 31, 2018 and 2017. Below is a table which displays the Cloud Telecommunications segment revenue backlog as of January 1, 2018 and 2017, and March 31, 2018 and 2017, which we expect to recognize as revenue within the next thirty-six to sixty months (in thousands):
 
 
Cloud Telecommunications backlog as of January 1, 2018
 $19,871 
Cloud Telecommunications backlog as of March 31, 2018
 $20,715

Cloud Telecommunications backlog as of March 31, 2017

Cost of Service Revenue
 
Cost of service revenue consists primarily of fees we pay to third-party telecommunications carriers, broadband Internet, and software providers, costs related to installations, and customer support. Cost of service revenue increased 15% or $94,000, to $708,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $614,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase in cost of service revenue was primarily due to an increase in salary and benefits of $36,000, an increase in bandwidth costs of $32,000, an increase in credit card processing fees of $11,000, and a $15,000 increase in costs related to installations. These increases are directly related to the growth in monthly recurring revenue.
 
Cost of Product Revenue
 
Cost of product revenue consists of the costs associated with the purchase of desktop phone devices and third party equipment. Cost of product revenue increased 73% or $79,000, to $187,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $108,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase is primarily due to the increase in product revenue and an increase in shipping costs.
 
Research and Development
 
Research and development expenses primarily consist of payroll and related expenses, related to the development of new cloud telecommunications features and products. Research and development salary expenses decreased 5% or $9,000, to $175,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $184,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 due to fluctuations in salary and benefits.
 
Selling and Marketing
 
Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of direct sales representative salaries and benefits, partner channel commissions, amortization of costs to acquire contracts, the production of marketing materials, and sales support software. Selling and marketing expenses increased 25% or $167,000, to $829,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $662,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase in selling and marketing expense was due an increase in salary and benefits of $76,000, an increase in commission expenses of $100,000 directly related to an increase in revenue, and an increase in travel expenses of $23,000, offset by a decrease in bad debt of $11,000 and a decrease in business development costs of $21,000, which includes trade shows and other marketing materials.
 
General and Administrative
 
General and administrative expenses consist of salaries and benefits for executives, administrative personnel, legal, rent, accounting and other professional services, and other administrative corporate expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased 16% or $162,000, to $872,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $1,034,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to a company-wide reduction in general and administrative expenses as we continue to cut unnecessary expenses. Consolidated general and administrative expenses decreased 19%, or $226,000 to $945,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $1,171,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. We reduced software support costs by $89,000 resulting from utilizing more affordable software. Stock compensation expense decreased $176,000, offset by a $20,000 increase in data center costs, a $10,000 increase in board fees, and $19,000 increase in administrative expenses.
 
Other Income/(Expense)
 
Other income/(expense) primarily relates to the allocated portions of interest expense, offset by sublease rental income. Net other income increased 113% or $34,000, to $4,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $(30,000) for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase is primarily due to a decrease in interest expense of $31,000 on our related party note payable and an increase in sublease income of $3,000 resulting from a sub-lease signed in the fourth quarter of 2017.

Service Revenue
 
Service revenue is generated primarily through website hosting, professional web management services, and extended payment term agreements (EPTAs). Web Services segment revenue decreased 20% or $55,000, to $225,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $280,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease in service revenue is primarily due to a decrease in hosting revenue of $46,000, a $6,000 decrease in EPTA revenue due to decrease in outstanding receivables, and a decrease of $3,000 from a decline in web management professional services.
 
Cost of Service Revenue
 
Cost of service revenue consists primarily of bandwidth, customer service costs, and credit card processing fees. Cost of service revenue decreased 30% or $9,000, to $21,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $30,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The cost of revenue decrease is primarily related to a reduction in customer service costs as well as a reduction in credit card processing fees due to the reduction in revenue.
 
 Research and Development
 
Research and development expenses primarily consist of salaries and benefits, and related expenses which are attributable to the development of our website development software products. Research and development expenses were $6,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $6,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017.
 
General and Administrative
 
General and administrative expenses consist of salaries and benefits for executives, administrative personnel, legal, rent, accounting and other professional services, and other administrative corporate expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased 47% or $64,000, to $73,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $137,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The decrease in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to less of an allocation of corporate general and administrative expenses resulting from the 20% decrease in revenue for the period, and a company-wide reduction in general and administrative expenses as we continue to cut unnecessary expenses. Consolidated general and administrative expenses decreased 19%, or $226,000 to $945,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to $1,171,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. We reduced software support costs by $89,000 resulting from utilizing more affordable software. Stock compensation expense decreased $176,000, offset by a $20,000 increase in data center costs, a $10,000 increase in board fees, and $19,000 increase in administrative expenses.
 
Other Income
 
Other income primarily relates to interest income from the collection of EPTA receivables and the allocated portions of interest expense and sublease rental income. Other income was $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of March 31, 2018 and 2017, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,117,000 and $968,000, respectively. Changes in cash and cash equivalents are dependent upon changes in, among other things, working capital items such as contract liabilities, contract costs, accounts payable, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, and various accrued expenses, as well as purchases of property and equipment and changes in our capital and financial structure due to debt repayments and issuances, stock option exercises, sales of equity investments and similar events. We believe that our operations along with existing liquidity sources will satisfy our cash requirements for at least the next 12 months. If the assumptions underlying our business plan regarding future revenue and expenses change or if unexpected opportunities or needs arise, we may seek to raise additional cash by selling equity or debt securities.
 
Working Capital
 
Working capital increased 4% or $35,000 to $956,000 as of March 31, 2018 as compared to $921,000 at December 31, 2017. The increase in working capital was primarily related to an increase in contract assets of $1,000, an increase in inventories of $59,000, and increase in contract costs of $9,000, an increase in prepaid expenses of $165,000, a decrease in accounts payable of $3,000, a decrease in notes payable of $37,000, and a decrease in contract liabilities of $57,000, offset by decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $165,000, a decrease in trade receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts of $11,000, a decrease in equipment financing receivables of $18,000, an increase in accrued expenses of $98,000, and an increase in income taxes payable of $4,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2018.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
Cash and cash equivalents decreased 13% or $165,000 to $1,117,000 at March 31, 2018 as compared to $1,282,000 at December 31, 2017. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we used cash flows for operating activities of $127,000 and $38,000 for financing activities. The $38,000 used for financing activities primarily related to repayments of notes payable of $40,000, offset by proceeds from stock option exercises of $2,000 during the period.
 
Inventories
 
Inventories increased 45% or $59,000 to $190,000 at March 31, 2018 as compared to $131,000 at December 31, 2017. The increase is due to replenishing inventory from shipments made during the prior quarter.
 
Prepaid Expenses
 
Prepaid expenses increased 66% or $165,000 to $416,000 at March 31, 2018 as compared to $251,000 at December 31, 2017. The increase is from an $85,000 payment for a 2018 annual software subscription, $78,000 is from an increase in prepaid inventories for prepayments on shipments that will be received in the next 90 days, and a $2,000 increase in other prepaid expense accounts.
 
Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses
 
Accounts payable decreased 4% or $3,000 to $76,000 at March 31, 2018 as compared to $79,000 at December 31, 2017. Our accounts payable as of March 31, 2018 were generally within our vendors’ terms of payment. The increase is primarily related to the timing of check processing schedule.
 
Accrued expenses increased 10% or $98,000 to $1,059,000 at March 31, 2018 as compared to $961,000 at December 31, 2017. The increase is from a $79,000 increase in accrued salaries due to accruing ten days at March 31, 2018 as compared to five days at December 31, 2017, a $14,000 increase in accrued paid time off due to fewer vacation days taken in the first quarter of 2018, and a $5,000 increase in other accrued expense accounts.
 
Notes Payable
 
Notes payables decreased 51% or $40,000 to $39,000 at March 31, 2018 as compared to $79,000 at December 31, 2017. The decrease is primarily related to payments on annual financing contracts.
 
 
31
 
 
Contract Liabilities
 
Contract liabilities decreased 9% or $57,000 to $557,000 at March 31, 2018 as compared to $614,000 at December 31, 2017. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in customer down payments typically received at contract inception. During the quarter we entered into a few contracts that do not require advance payments for equipment purchases. Our typical customer installation is complete within 30 days. However, larger enterprise customers can take multiple months, depending on size and the number of locations.
 
Capital
 
Total stockholders’ equity increased $1,000, to $1,631,000 at March 31, 2018 as compared to $1,630,000 at December 31, 2017. The increase in total stockholders’ equity was attributable to an increase in additional paid-in capital of $2,000 for proceeds from the exercise of stock options, and $62,000 for stock options issued to employees, offset by a net loss of $63,000.
 
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
As of March 31, 2018, we are not involved in any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of SEC Regulation S-K.
 
Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
The information set forth under Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements under the caption “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” is incorporated herein by reference.
 
Forward-Looking Statements and Factors That May Affect Future Results and Financial Condition
 
With the exception of historical facts, the statements contained in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which reflect our current expectations and beliefs regarding our future results of operations, performance and achievements. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties and are based upon assumptions and beliefs that may or may not materialize. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning:
 
● 
our belief that our target market will increasingly look to Internet solutions providers who leverage industry and customer practices, increase predictability of success of their Internet initiatives and decrease implementation risks by providing low-cost, scalable solutions with minimal lead time;
● 
our belief that we can compete successfully by relying on our infrastructure and marketing strategies as well as techniques, systems and procedures, and by adding additional products and services in the future;
● 
our belief that we can continue our success by periodic review and revision of our methods of doing business and by continuing our expansion into domestic and international markets;
● 
our belief that a key component of our success comes from a number of new, recently developed proprietary technologies and that these technologies and advances distinguish our services and products from our competitors and further help to substantially reduce our operating costs and expenses;
● 
our contention that we do not offer our customers a “business opportunity” or a “franchise” as those terms are defined in applicable statutes of the states in which we operate;
● 
our belief that there is a large, fragmented and under-served population of small businesses and entrepreneurs searching for professional services firms that offer business-to-consumer e-commerce solutions coupled with support and continuing education;
● 
our expectation that our offering of products and services will evolve as some products are replaced by new and enhanced products intended to help our customers achieve success with their Internet-related businesses; and
● 
our expectation that the costs and expenses we incur will be insignificant as deferred revenue amounts are recognized as product and other revenues when cash is collected.
 
We caution readers that our operating results are subject to various risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results and outcomes to differ materially from those discussed or anticipated, including changes in economic conditions and Internet technologies, interest rate fluctuations, and the factors set forth in the section entitled, “Risk Factors,” under Part I, Item 1A of the 2017 Form 10-K. We also advise readers not to place any undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q, which reflect our beliefs and expectations only as of the date of this Report. We assume no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements to reflect new events or circumstances or any changes in our beliefs or expectations, other than as required by law.
