Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1: Description of Business

 

DecisionPoint Systems, Inc., which we sometimes refer to as the “Company”, “we” or “us”, is an enterprise mobility systems integrator that sells, installs, deploys and repairs mobile computing and wireless systems that are used both within a company’s facilities and in the field. These systems generally include mobile computers, mobile application software, and related data capture equipment including bar code scanners and radio frequency identification (“RFID”) readers. We also provide professional services, consulting, staging, kitting, deployment, maintenance, proprietary and third-party software and software customization as an integral part of our customized solutions for our customers. The suite of products utilizes the latest technologies with the intent to make complex mobile technologies easy to use, understand and keep running within all vertical markets such as merchandising, sales and delivery, field service, logistics and transportation and warehouse management.

 

In June 2018, we acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of Royce Digital Systems, Inc. (“RDS”). RDS provides innovative enterprise print and mobile technologies, deployment services and on-site maintenance.

 

In December 2020, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of ExtenData Solutions, LLC (“ExtenData”). ExtenData is focused on enterprise mobility solutions and provides software product development, mobile computing, identification and tracking solutions, and wireless tracking solutions. 

 

Note 2: Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

We have prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of DecisionPoint Systems, Inc. and its subsidiaries on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DecisionPoint Systems, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, DecisionPoint Systems International (“DPSI”), DecisionPoint Systems Group, Inc. (“DPS Group”), RDS and ExtenData. ExtenData was acquired on December 4, 2020, and as such, has been consolidated into our financial position and results of operations beginning December 5, 2020. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted from these interim financial statements as permitted by SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in our Special Financial Report on Form SP 15D2 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

 

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

 

COVID-19

 

COVID-19 and the response to the virus have negatively impacted economic activity in many sectors. The potential future economic impacts of COVID-19, while uncertain, could materially adversely impact the Company’s results of operations. The financial related impact and duration of the pandemic cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

 

Operating Segments

 

Under the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 280-10, two or more operating segments may be aggregated into a single operating segment for financial reporting purposes if aggregation is consistent with the objective and basic principles, if the segments have similar characteristics, and if the segments are similar in each of the following areas: (i) the nature of products and services, (ii) the nature of the production processes, (iii) the type or class of customer for their products and services, and (iv) the methods used to distribute their products or provide their services. We believe each of the Company’s segments meet these criteria as they provide similar products and services to similar customers using similar methods of production and distribution. Because we believe each of the criteria set forth above has been met and each of the Company’s segments has similar characteristics, we aggregate results of operations in one reportable operating segment.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Certain accounting policies involve judgments and uncertainties to such an extent that there is a reasonable likelihood that materially different amounts could have been reported under different conditions, or if different assumptions had been used. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on a regular basis.

Revenue Recognition

  

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps: (1) identification of the contract with a customer; (2) identification of the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determination of the transaction price; (4) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognition of revenue when, or as, a performance obligation is satisfied.

 

We combine contracts with the same customer into a single contract for accounting purposes when the contracts are entered into at or near the same time and the contracts are negotiated as a single commercial package, consideration in one contract depends on the other contract, or the services are considered a single performance obligation. If an arrangement involves multiple performance obligations, the items are analyzed to determine the separate units of accounting, whether the items have value on a standalone basis and whether there is objective and reliable evidence of their standalone selling price. The total contract transaction price is allocated to the identified performance obligations based upon the relative standalone selling prices of the performance obligations. The standalone selling price is based on an observable price for services sold to other comparable customers, when available, or an estimated selling price using a cost plus margin approach. We estimate the amount of total contract consideration we expect to receive for variable arrangements by determining the most likely amount we expect to earn from the arrangement based on the expected quantities of services we expect to provide, and the contractual pricing based on those quantities. We only include some or a portion of variable consideration in the transaction price when it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur or when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. We consider the sensitivity of the estimate, our relationship and experience with our client and variable services being performed, the range of possible revenue amounts and the magnitude of the variable consideration to the overall arrangement.

 

As discussed in more detail below, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services under the terms of a contract and is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. We do not have any material extended payment terms, as payment is due at or shortly after the time of the sale. Sales, value-added and other taxes collected concurrently with revenue producing activities are excluded from revenue.

 

We recognize contract assets or unbilled receivables related to revenue recognized for services completed but not yet invoiced to our clients. Unbilled receivables are recorded when we have an unconditional right to contract consideration. A contract liability is recognized as deferred revenue when we invoice clients, or receive customer cash payments, in advance of performing the related services under the terms of a contract. Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price allocated to the performance obligations that are unsatisfied as of the end of each reporting period. Deferred revenue is recognized as revenue when we have satisfied the related performance obligation.

 

As of September 30, 2021, the total aggregate transaction price allocated to the unsatisfied performance obligations was approximately $7.3 million, of which approximately $4.5 million is expected to be recognized over the next 12 months. As of December 31, 2020, the total aggregate transaction price allocated to the unsatisfied performance obligations was approximately $7.8 million, of which $3.6 million and $4.2 million in performance obligations were satisfied in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.

 

Hardware, consumables, and software products - We recognize product revenue at the point in time when a client takes control of the hardware, consumables and/or software, which typically occurs when title and risk of loss have passed to the client. Our selling terms and conditions reflect that F.O.B ‘dock’ contractual terms establish that control is transferred from us at the point in time when the product is shipped to the customer.

 

Revenues from software license sales are recognized as a single performance obligation on a gross basis as we are acting as a principal in these transactions at the point the software license is delivered to the customer. Generally, software licenses are sold with accompanying third-party delivered software assurance, which allows customers to upgrade, at no additional cost, to the latest technology if new capabilities are introduced during the period that the software assurance is in effect. In most instances, we determined that the accompanying third-party delivered software assurance is critical or essential to the core functionality of the software license because we do not sell the software license and standard warranty on a standalone basis (which indicates that the customer cannot benefit from the software license and standard warranty on its own), the software license and the standard warranty are not separately identifiable, the software license assurance warranty are inputs of a combined item in the contract, the assurance warranty and software license are highly interdependent and interrelated because the core functionality of the license is dependent on the assurance warranty, and our promise to provide the assurance warranty that is necessary for the software license to continue to provide significant benefit to the customer. As a result, the software license and the accompanying third-party delivered software assurance are recognized as a single performance obligation. We consider several factors to determine whether we are acting as a principal or an agent, including whether we are the primary obligor to the customer, have established our own pricing and have inventory and credit risks.

 

Our internally developed software solution generates SaaS revenues from implementation, training and subscription fees. The initial term of the SaaS agreements is generally one year. The subscription fees are recognized over the subscription period. The implementation fees are necessary and integral for the customer to utilize the software. As such, the implementation fees are deferred and amortized over the subscription period.

  

We also offer third-party SaaS subscriptions to our customers. The third-party subscriptions are recognized on a net basis as we are acting as an agent in these transactions, whereas our internally developed software solution offering is recognized on a gross basis.

 

6

 

 

We leverage drop-ship shipments with many of our partners and suppliers to deliver hardware and consumable products to our clients without having to physically hold the inventory at our warehouses, thereby increasing efficiency and reducing costs. We recognize revenue for drop-ship arrangements on a gross basis as the principal in the transaction when the product is received by the client because we control the product prior to transfer to the client. We also assume primary responsibility for the fulfillment in the arrangement, we assume inventory risk if the product is returned by the client, we set the price of the product charged to the client, we assume credit risk for nonpayment by our customer, and we work closely with clients to determine their hardware specifications.

 

Professional services - We provide professional services which include consulting, staging, deployment, installation, repair and customer specified software customization. The arrangement with a customer is based on either a time and material basis or a fixed fee. For our time and materials service contracts, we recognize revenues as those services are provided and consumed, as this is the best output measure of how the services are transferred to the customer. Fixed fee contracts are recognized in the period in which the services are performed or delivered using a proportional service model. Except for installation services that are recognized over the subscription period as previously described, all other professional services are recognized on a gross basis in the period in which the services are performed or delivered.

 

Maintenance services - We sell certain Original Equipment Manufacturer (“OEM”) hardware and software maintenance support arrangements to our clients. We also offer an internal maintenance agreement related to hardware. These contracts are support service agreements for the hardware and/or software products that were acquired from us and others. Although these are third-party support agreements for maintenance on the specific hardware and/or software products, our internal help desk and systems engineers assist customers by providing technical assistance on the source of or how to fix the problem. In addition, we provide a turn back feature, deploying replacements as needed while we manage the return and reverse logistics of the product back to the OEM. Revenue related to service contracts is recognized ratably over the term of the agreement, generally over one to three years.

 

We generally act as the principal in the transaction as the primary obligor for fulfillment in the arrangement, we set the price of the service charged to the customer, and we assume credit risk for the amounts invoiced. In addition, we manage back-end warranties, service contracts and repairs for multiple products and suppliers. We leverage our knowledge base of mobility best practices by consolidating multiple supplier’s maintenance requirements under a single point in contact through us. Our internal support team assists our customers first by performing an initial technical triage to determine the source of the problem including, but not limited to, physical damage and software issues and whether they can be handled remotely by the client or returned for repair. Further, we receive the returned products, confirm that the equipment is operational or not, either repair or refurbish the equipment internally or return it to the manufacturer directly to repair. We then obtain the product turn back from the manufacturer and either send it back out to a specific customer location or place in a customer’s spare pool. As a result, we recognize the revenue on a gross basis. For certain of our agreements, the accompanying third-party delivered software assurance is recognized on a net basis when we are acting as an agent in these transactions.

 

We defer costs to acquire contracts, including commissions, incentives and payroll taxes if they are incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a customer contract with a term exceeding one year. Deferred contract costs are amortized to sales and marketing expense over the contract term, generally over one to three years. We have elected to recognize the incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a term of less than one year as a selling expense when incurred. We include deferred contract acquisition costs in “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we deferred $147,535 and $136,417, respectively, of related contract acquisition costs. We recorded $230 and $52,295 in amortized deferred contract acquisition costs in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. We recorded ($3,254) and $15,642 in amortized deferred contract acquisition costs in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Accounting Standards Adopted

 

On January 1, 2021, we adopted ASU 2020-10, “Codification Improvements”. This ASU amended a variety of Topics, including presentation and disclosures of financial statements, interim reporting, accounting changes and error corrections. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

  

On January 1, 2021, we adopted ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes,”. ASU 2019-12 removed certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04 (“ASU 2020-04”), Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU 2020-04 provides optional expedients and financial reporting and accounting exceptions for contracts, hedging accounting and other transactions that reference London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) and are expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform and will not apply to contracts entered into after December 31, 2022. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, which refines the scope of Topic 848 and clarifies some of its guidance as part of the FASB’s monitoring of global reference rate activities. The new guidance was effective upon issuance, and we can elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU will require the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets, including trade receivables, held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates, which, among other things, defers the effective date of ASU 2016-13 for public filers that are considered smaller reporting companies, as defined by the SEC, to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted. Although management continues to analyze the provisions of this ASU, currently, we believe the adoption of this ASU will not significantly impact the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial position.

 

There are no other accounting standards that have been issued but not yet adopted that we believe could have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 3: Acquisition

 

ExtenData Solutions, LLC

 

On December 4, 2020, the Company entered into a Membership Unit Purchase Agreement and concurrently closed upon the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of ExtenData for $5,169,787. The consideration we paid was comprised of cash of $4,419,787 of which $169,787 and $4,250,000 was paid in March 2021 and December 2020, respectively, and an estimated earn-out obligation valued at $750,000, subject to the financial performance of ExtenData during each of the two years following the closing of the acquisition. The earn-out obligation is recorded in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and “Other liabilities” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Amortization expense recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Amortization expense is calculated on an accelerated basis.

 

Note 5: Net Income Per Share

 

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per share is calculated similarly to basic per share amounts, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. For periods in which there is a net loss, potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of fully diluted net loss per share as their effect is anti-dilutive.

Note 6: Line of Credit

 

PWBF Line of Credit

 

The amended and restated credit agreement with Pacific Western Business Finance (“PWBF”) provided a line of credit of $10 million with a maturity date of September 2023. Outstanding amounts incurred interest at the prime rate plus 1.25% with a floor of 4.75% and was secured by substantially all of our assets.

 

The availability under the line of credit was determined from a borrowing base calculation on our existing accounts receivable balance. As of December 31, 2020, we had $1.2 million outstanding under the line of credit.

 

Effective on July 30, 2021, the amended and restated credit agreement between us and PWBF was terminated. The credit agreement with PWBF was terminated in connection with the Company entering into a new credit facility with MUFG Union Bank, National Association as described below. No pre-payment penalty was paid in connection with the termination of the credit agreement with PWBF.

 

MUFG Union Bank Line of Credit

 

On July 30, 2021, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with MUFG Union Bank, National Association (the “Bank”). The Loan Agreement provides for a revolving line of credit of up to $9.0 million with our obligations being secured by a security interest in substantially all of our assets. Loans extended to us under the Loan Agreement are scheduled to mature on July 31, 2024.

 

Interest and Fees

 

Loans under the Loan Agreement with an outstanding balance of at least $150,000 bear interest, at our option, at a base interest rate equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 2.50% or a base rate equal to an index offered by the Bank for the interest period selected and is payable at the on the last day of each month commencing on August 31, 2021 (4.75% at September 30, 2021). If the LIBOR rate is selected, the interest rate on the loans adjusts at the end of each LIBOR rate period (1, 2, 3, 6, or 12 month term) selected by us. All other loan amounts bear interest at a rate equal to an index rate determined by the Bank, which shall vary when the index rate changes. We have the right to prepay variable interest rate loans, in whole or in part at any time, without penalty or premium. Amounts outstanding with a base interest rate may be prepaid in whole or in part provided we have given the Bank written notice of at least five days prior to prepayment and pay a prepayment fee. At any time prior to the maturity date, we may borrow, repay and reborrow amounts under the Loan Agreement, subject to the prepayment terms, and as long as the total outstanding does not exceed $9.0 million. The Loan Agreement requires a commitment fee of 0.25% per year, payable quarterly and in arrears, on any unused portion of the line of credit.

 

Covenants

 

Under the Loan Agreement, we are subject to a variety of customary affirmative and negative covenants, including that we (i) achieve a net profit of not less than $1.0 million at the end of each fiscal year, (ii) maintain a ratio of total debt to EBITDA of not greater than 3.0:1.0 measured at the end of each quarter, and (iii) not realize a net loss for more than two consecutive quarters. The Loan Agreement also prohibits us from, or otherwise imposes restrictions on us with respect to, among other things, liquidating, dissolving, entering into any consolidation, merger, division, partnership, or other combination, selling or leasing a majority of our assets or business or purchase or lease all or the greater part of the assets or business of another entity or person.

 

As of September 30 2021, we were in compliance with all of our covenants, were eligible to borrow up to $9.0 million, and had no outstanding borrowings under the line of credit.

Note 7: Term Debt

 

The following table sets forth our outstanding term debt (in thousands):

 

   Maturity Date  September 30,
2021
   December 31,
2020
 
EIDL promissory note  August 27, 2051  $150   $150 
PWBF PPP loan  May 4, 2022   
    471 
PWBF PPP loan  April 20, 2022   
    740 
Total long-term debt     $150   $1,361 

 

PWBF PPP Loans

 

On April 20, 2020 and May 4, 2020, we received $740,000 and $471,000, respectively, in proceeds from loans from PWBF, which were granted pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program of the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security Act (collectively, the “PPP Loans”). Under the terms of the PPP Loans, interest accrued on the outstanding principal at the rate of 1.0% per annum with a deferral of payments for three months and with a term of two years. Principal payments were to be due and payable in 18 consecutive payments beginning on November 1, 2020 in the amount of $41,437 for the PPP Loan received on April 20, 2020 and $26,374 beginning on December 1, 2020 for the PPP Loan received on May 4, 2020. The CARES Act provides for forgiveness of up to the full amount borrowed, subject to certain conditions, and based on the use of proceeds for qualifying expenses including payroll, benefits, rent and utilities. We used the entire PPP Loan proceeds for qualifying expenses. In December 2020, we applied for loan forgiveness, including principal and accrued interest as permitted by the CARES Act. Principal and interest payments due under the PPP Loans were deferred until the review and approval of any forgiveness is made by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”). We accounted for the PPP Loans under the ASC 740 debt model.

 

In February and March 2021, we received SBA notices of forgiveness of the PPP Loans in whole, including all accrued interest to date. As a result, we recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt of $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2021.

 

EIDL Promissory Note

 

On August 27, 2020, we received $150,000 in connection with a promissory note from the SBA under the Economic Injury Disaster Loan (“EIDL”) program pursuant to the CARES Act. Under the terms of the EIDL promissory note, interest accrues on the outstanding principal at an interest rate of 3.75% per annum and with a term of 30 years with equal monthly payments of principal and interest of $731 beginning on August 27, 2021.

 

Note 8: Warrants

               686,100   $354   $0.52

 

On February 3, 2021, the common stock warrants issued by the Company in September 2016 were fully exercised by all of the holders on a cashless basis. As a result of the cashless exercise, 303,008 shares of common stock were issued.

 

Note 9: Share-Based Compensation

 

Under our amended 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”), 2,200,000 shares of our common stock are reserved for issuance under the plan.

 

Under the 2014 Plan, common stock incentives may be granted to our officers, employees, directors, consultants, and advisors (and prospective directors, officers, managers, employees, consultants and advisors) and our affiliates can acquire and maintain an equity interest in us, or be paid incentive compensation, which may (but need not) be measured by reference to the value of our common stock.

 

The 2014 Plan permits us to provide equity-based compensation in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, unrestricted stock and other stock bonus awards and performance compensation awards.

 

11

 

 

The 2014 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee, which determines recipients and the number of shares subject to the awards, the exercise price and the vesting schedule. The term of stock options granted under the 2014 Plan cannot exceed ten years. Options shall not have an exercise price less than 100% of the fair market value of our common stock on the grant date, and generally vest over a period of five years. If the individual possesses more than 10% of the combined voting power of all classes of our stock, the exercise price shall not be less than 110% of the fair market of a share of common stock on the date of grant.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, certain employees and directors exercised vested stock options through a cashless exercise. The options exercised were net settled in satisfaction of the exercise price. The exercised options, utilizing a cashless exercise, are summarized in the following table:

 262,882   $0.94    139,640    14,509    108,733   $1.78   $24,662 

 

Share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. The fair values of stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

 

Weighted average grant-date fair value per option granted  $0.75 
Expected option term   3.0 years 
Expected volatility factor   70.0%
Risk-free interest rate   0.19%
Expected annual dividend yield   
 

 

We estimate expected volatility using historical volatility of common stock of our peer group over a period equal to the expected life of the options. The expected term of the awards represents the period of time that the awards are expected to be outstanding. We considered expectations for the future to estimate employee exercise and post-vest termination behavior. We do not intend to pay common stock dividends in the foreseeable future, and therefore have assumed a dividend yield of zero. The risk-free interest rate is the yield on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities for a period that is commensurate with the expected term of the awards.

 

As of September 30, 2021, there was $0.3 million of total unrecognized share-based compensation related to unvested stock options. These costs have a weighted average remaining recognition period of 2.2 years.

 

Note 10: Contingencies

 

Litigation

 

From time to time, we are subject to litigation incidental to the conduct of our business. When applicable, we record accruals for contingencies when it is probable that a liability will be incurred, and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. While the outcome of lawsuits and other proceedings against us cannot be predicted with certainty, in our opinion, individually or in the aggregate, no such lawsuits are expected to have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

Concentrations

 

One customer accounted for approximately 14% of consolidated net revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of consolidated net revenues. While we believe our relationships with such customers are stable, most arrangements are made by purchase order and are terminable at will by either party. A significant decrease or interruption in business from our significant customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Financial instruments that potentially expose us to a concentration of credit risk principally consist of accounts receivable. We sell product to a large number of customers in many different geographic regions. To minimize credit risk, we perform ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements that discuss future events or expectations, projections of results of operations or financial condition, trends in our business, business prospects and strategies and other “forward-looking” information. In some cases, you can identify “forward-looking statements” by words like “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” These statements may relate to, among other things, our expectations regarding for our financial results, revenue, operating expenses and other financial measures in future periods, and the adequacy of our sources of liquidity to satisfy our working capital needs, capital expenditures, and other liquidity requirements. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the factors discussed under “Risk Factors” in documents and reports we have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Some additional factors that could cause actual results to differ include:

 

  our plans to obtain any requisite outside funding for our current and proposed operations and potential acquisition and expansion efforts;
  the ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, or any other health epidemic, on our business, our clientele, or the global economy as a whole;
 

the concentration of our customers and the potential effect of the loss of a significant customer;

  debt obligations of the Company arising from our line of credit or otherwise;
  our ability to integrate the business operations of businesses that we acquire from time to time;
  our general history of operating losses;
  our ability to compete with companies producing similar products and services;
  the scope of protection we are able to establish and maintain for intellectual property rights covering our products and technology;
  the accuracy of our estimates regarding expenses, future revenue, capital requirements and needs for additional financing;
  our ability to develop and maintain our corporate infrastructure, including our internal controls;
  our ability to develop innovative new products; and
  our financial performance.

 

Our financial statements are stated in United States Dollars (“$”) and are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In this Quarterly Report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars and all references to “common shares” refer to the common shares in our capital stock.

 

Overview

 

DecisionPoint is a provider and integrator of mobility and wireless systems for business organizations. The Company designs, deploys and supports mobile computing systems that enable customers to access employers’ data networks at various locations (i.e. the retail selling floor, nurse workstations, warehouse and distribution centers or on the road deliveries via enterprise-grade handheld computers, printers, tablets, and smart phones). The Company also integrates data capture equipment including bar code scanners and radio frequency identification (RFID) readers.

  

In December 2020, we completed the acquisition of ExtenData Solutions, LLC, a privately held company with corporate headquarters in Centennial, CO. DecisionPoint acquired ExtenData to better serve its customers, deepen its expertise in manufacturing, transportation and logistics, and hospitality, and provide a stronger regional presence across the Rocky Mountain and Southwest regions of the United States. 

 

The future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and results of operations is unknown and will depend on future developments, which fluctuate and are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, the effectiveness of vaccines and vaccination rates, and additional preventative and protective actions that governments, or we or our customers, may implement, which may result in an extended period of continued business disruption and reduced operations. While our overall business and revenue since the onset of the pandemic have not been materially adversely impacted, certain of our customers, particularly those in the retail sector, have been significantly impacted by COVID-19 and the pandemic has contributed to disruptions in supply chains and labor shortages across industries, and therefore our results of operations during 2020 and through September 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected in the remainder of 2021 in light of the uncertainties surrounding the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on many of our customers. Although our results of operations were not materially adversely impacted, we have experienced supplier shipment delays due to a supply chain and logistic challenges resulting in delays in revenue recognition.

Components of Results of Operations

 

Net Sales

 

Net sales reflect revenue from the sale of hardware, software, consumables and professional services (including hardware and software maintenance) to our clients, net of sales taxes.

 

Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services under the terms of a contract and is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. We do not have any material extended payment terms, as payment is due at or shortly after the time of the sale. Sales, value-added and other taxes collected concurrently with revenue producing activities are excluded from revenue.

 

Cost of Sales, Sales and Marketing Expenses, and General and Administrative Expenses

 

The following illustrates the primary costs classified in each major expense category:

 

Cost of sales, include:

 

  Cost of goods sold for hardware, software and consumables;
  Cost of professional services, including maintenance;
  Markdowns of inventory; and
  Freight expenses.

 

Sales and marketing expenses, include:

 

  Sales salaries, benefits and commissions;
  Consulting;
  Marketing tools;
  Travel; and
  Marketing promotions and trade shows.

 

General and administrative expenses, include:

 

  Corporate payroll and benefits;
  Depreciation and amortization;
  Rent;
  Utilities; and
  Other administrative costs such as maintenance of corporate offices, supplies, legal, consulting, audit and tax preparation and other professional fees.

The increase in net sales was primarily driven by a $3.0 million increase in overall net sales that were primarily associated with sales by ExtenData which we acquired in December 2020 (and, thus, there were not corresponding sales by ExtenData included in our results of operations for the comparable period in 2020), as well as an increase in net sales across all categories associated for in retail and healthcare as a result of many of our customers conducting more normalized operations in the 2021 period compared to the 2020 period when greater COVID-19 driven restrictions were in place.

Cost of sales increased by 56.0%, or $5.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the same prior year period primarily due to higher sales volume across all categories and a $2.2 million increase in overall cost of sales associated with cost of sales of ExtenData that we acquired in December 2020 (and, thus, there were not corresponding costs of sales of ExtenData included in our results of operations for the comparable period in 2020).

Gross profit increased $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the prior year period, primarily as a result of overall higher sales volume and the other impacts noted above. The increase in gross profit margin for hardware was primarily attributed to a large order of higher margin hardware for one of our retail customers. The increase in gross profit margin for professional services was attributed to higher sales volume leveraging fixed personnel costs.

Sales and marketing expenses increased $0.8 million, or 77.5%, for the three months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the prior year period due to increased expenses for ExtenData operations that was acquired in December 2020 (and, thus, there were not corresponding sales and marketing expenses of ExtenData included in our results of operations for the comparable period in 2020) including marketing licenses and sales integration costs. In addition, sales commissions were higher for the three months ended September 30, 2021in result of higher sales volume as compared to the prior year period. As a percentage of sales, sales and marketing expenses increased 70 basis points primarily due to incremental one-time costs associated with the sales integration efforts with ExtenData.

16

 

 

General and administrative expenses increased $0.5 million, or 45.9%, for the three months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase in costs was primarily due to a $0.4 million increase in expenses associated with the acquisition of ExtenData in December 2020 (and, thus, there were not corresponding general and administrative expenses by ExtenData included in our results of operations for the comparable period in 2020), director and executive compensation and benefits, and an increase in legal and compliance costs. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative costs decreased 100 basis points primarily due to leverage of fixed general and administrative expenses associated with higher sales volume.

 

Interest expense. The decrease in interest expense to $17,000 from $61,000 last year was due to a decrease in average debt balances as compared to the same period last year.

 

Income tax (expense) benefit. Income tax expense was approximately $249,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and income tax benefit was $2,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2020.

 

Net income. Net income was $0.6 million compared to $0.2 million in the same period last year.

 

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 (Unaudited)

 

Net sales

   $49,460   $45,059   $4,401    9.8%

 

Net sales increased by 9.8%, or $4.4 million, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase in net sales was primarily driven by a $8.7 million increase in overall net sales associated with sales by ExtenData that we acquired in December 2020 (and, thus, there were not corresponding sales by ExtenData included in our results of operations for the comparable period in 2020), partially offset by a decrease in hardware and software sales in the retail sector due to significant equipment upgrades (and resulting purchases of our products and services) that occurred in the prior year period from one of our largest customers, as well as supply chain issues impacting product availability in 2021. Significant customer equipment upgrades occur periodically and the related net sales, and the timing of those net sales, are difficult to estimate with a high degree of certainty.

Cost of sales increased by 9.2%, or $3.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the same prior year period primarily due a $6.1 million increase in overall cost of sales associated with cost of sales of ExtenData that we acquired in December 2020 (and, thus, there were not corresponding cost of sales for ExtenData included in our results of operations for the comparable period in 2020), partially offset by lower hardware and software costs associated with significant equipment upgrades that occurred in the prior year.

Sales and marketing expenses increased $1.6 million, or 40.2%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the prior year period due to increased expenses for ExtenData operations that was acquired in December 2020 (and, thus, there were not corresponding expenses for ExtenData included in our results of operations for the comparable period in 2020). As a percentage of sales, sales and marketing expenses increased 250 basis points primarily as a result of higher marketing personnel costs and sales integration costs.

General and administrative expenses increased $1.4 million, or 42.1%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase in costs was primarily due to a $1.2 million increase in expenses associated with the acquisition of ExtenData in December 2020 (and, thus, there were not corresponding expenses for ExtenData included in our results of operations for the comparable period in 2020), director and executive compensation and benefits, and an increase in legal and compliance costs. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative costs increased 210 basis points due to the higher compensation, legal and compliance costs.

 

Interest expense. The decrease in interest expense to $67,000 from $232,000 last year was due to a decrease in average debt balances as compared to the same period last year.

Gain on extinguishment of debt. We recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt of $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2021 in connection with the SBA’s forgiveness of the PPP Loans.

 

Income tax expense. Income tax expense was approximately $0.3 million and $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively. The lower income tax rate this year is associated with lower income before income taxes and the tax exemption for the gain on extinguishment of debt recognized in the first quarter of 2021.

 

Net income. Net income was $2.1 million compared to $2.3 million in the same period last year.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2021, our principal sources of liquidity were cash totaling $2.6 million and availability under our line of credit. In recent years we have financed our operations primarily through cash generated from operating activities, borrowings from term loans and our line of credit. We have historically generated operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities as reflected in our accumulated deficit. We have generated operating income for the years ended December 31, 2018 through December 31, 2021. Based on our recent trends and our current future projections, we expect to generate cash from operations for the year ending December 31, 2021. Given our projections, combined with our existing cash and credit facilities, we believe the Company has sufficient liquidity for at least the next 12 months.

 

Our ability to continue to meet our cash requirements will depend on, among other things, the effect of COVID-19 on U.S. and global economic activity, continuing disruptions in supply chains and labor shortages across industry sectors caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, our ability to achieve anticipated levels of revenues and cash flow from operations, our ability to manage costs and working capital successfully and the continued availability of financing, if needed. We cannot provide any assurance that our assumptions used to estimate our liquidity requirements will remain accurate due to, among other things, the unpredictability of the COVID-19 global pandemic and its effect on the Company and its customers and suppliers. Consequently, the duration of the pandemic and our estimates on the severity of the impact on our future earnings and cash flows could change and have a material impact on our results of operations and financial condition. In the event of a sustained market deterioration, and declines in net sales, we may need additional liquidity, which would require us to evaluate available alternatives and take appropriate actions. We cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to obtain any additional sources of financing or liquidity on acceptable terms, or at all.

Current liabilities   17,251    21,777    (4,526)
Working capital (deficit)   921    (639)   1,560 

 

The improvement in working capital is primarily due to timing of payments of accounts payable and the payoff during 2021 of the outstanding line of credit balance of $1.2 million at December 31, 2020.

 

Line of Credit

 

On July 30, 2021, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with MUFG Union Bank, National Association. The Loan Agreement provides for a revolving line of credit of up to $9.0 million with our obligations being secured by a security interest in substantially all of our assets. Loans extended to us under the Loan Agreement are scheduled to mature on July 31, 2024. The availability under the line of credit is not determined by a borrowing base calculation on our existing accounts receivable balance and currently bears interest at 2.75%.

 

As of September 30 2021, we were eligible to borrow up to $9.0 million, and had no outstanding borrowings under the line of credit.

 

PPP Loans

 

On April 20, 2020 and May 4, 2020, we received $740,000 and $471,000, respectively, in proceeds from loans from PWBF, which were granted pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program of the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security Act (collectively, the “PPP Loans”). We used the entire PPP Loan proceeds for qualifying expenses. In December 2020, we applied for loan forgiveness, including principal and accrued interest as permitted by the CARES Act. In February and March 2021, we received forgiveness of the PPP Loans in whole, including all accrued interest to date.

EIDL Promissory Note

 

On August 27, 2020, we received $150,000 in connection with a promissory note from the SBA under the Economic Injury Disaster Loan (“EIDL”) program pursuant to the CARES Act. Under the terms of the EIDL promissory note, interest accrues on the outstanding principal at an interest rate of 3.75% per annum and with a term of 30 years with equal monthly payments of principal and interest of $731 beginning on August 27, 2021.

 

Impact of CARES Act on Company Liquidity

 

On March 27, 2020, former President Trump signed into law the CARES Act which, among other things, includes provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferment of employer side social security payments, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. We continue to examine the impacts the CARES Act may have on our business.

 

ExtenData Solutions, LLC Acquisition

 

On December 4, 2020, the Company entered into a Membership Unit Purchase Agreement and concurrently therewith closed upon the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of ExtenData for $5,169,787. The consideration we paid was comprised of cash of $4,419,787, of which $169,787 and $4,250,000 was paid as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and an estimated earn-out obligation valued at $750,000, subject to the financial performance of ExtenData during each of the two years following the closing of the acquisition. As a result of the acquisition, ExtenData became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. ExtenData is focused on enterprise mobility solutions and provides software product development, mobile computing, identification and tracking solutions, and wireless tracking solutions. The operating results for ExtenData have been consolidated into our results of operations beginning December 5, 2020.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires the appropriate application of certain accounting policies, some of which require us to make estimates and assumptions about future events and their impact on amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Since future events and their impact cannot be determined with absolute certainty, the actual results will inevitably differ from our estimates. A summary of our significant accounting policies is included in Note 2 to the audited consolidated annual financial statements in our Special Financial Report on Form SP 15D2 for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with borrowings, if any, under our line of credit, which bears interest at variable rates. As of September 30, 2021, we had no outstanding borrowings under our credit facility.

 

Impact of Inflation

 

Our results of operations and financial condition are presented based on historical cost. While it is difficult to accurately measure the impact of inflation due to the imprecise nature of the estimates required, we believe the effects of inflation, if any, on our results of operations and financial condition have been immaterial.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2021. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including its principal executive and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2021, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer e concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no material changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

In December 2020, we acquired ExtenData, and we continue to integrate the ExtenData business into our financial reporting controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. We have migrated a significant portion of the information technology and data of ExtenData into our information technology infrastructure. While we have made significant progress in the migration, we anticipate the transition and migration efforts to occur throughout the remainder of 2021 and into 2022 as we continue to enhance and refine our processes.
