Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

 

1. Organization

 

hopTo Inc., a Delaware corporation, through its wholly-owned subsidiary GraphOn Corporation (collectively, “we”, “us,” “our” or the “Company”) are developers of application publishing software which includes application virtualization software and cloud computing software for multiple computer operating systems including Windows, UNIX and several Linux-based variants.

 

The Company sells a family of products under the brand name GO-Global, which is a software application publishing business and is the Company’s sole revenue source at this time. GO-Global is an application access solution for use and/or resale by independent software vendors, hosting service providers, corporate enterprises, governmental and educational institutions, and others, who wish to take advantage of cross-platform remote access and Web-enabled access to their existing software applications, as well as those who are deploying secure, private cloud environments.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of hopTo Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation. The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) applicable to interim financial information and the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, such unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnote disclosures required in annual financial statements.

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all adjustments, which include only normal, recurring adjustments, that are, in our opinion, necessary to state fairly the results for the periods presented. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, which was filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022 (“2021 10-K Report”). The interim results presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, or any future period.

 

Certain prior year information has been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Amounts could materially change in the future. These significant estimates include the valuation of the allowances for doubtful accounts, depreciation of long-lived assets, allowances for deferred tax assets and accruals of liabilities.

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company markets and licenses its products indirectly through channel distributors, value-added resellers, independent software vendors (“ISVs”), hosting service providers, corporate enterprises, governmental and educational institutions and others. Our product licenses are perpetual. We also separately sell intellectual property licenses, maintenance contracts, which are comprised of license updates and customer service access, as well as other products and services.

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” Revenues under ASC 606 are recognized when the promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

Product Sales

 

All of our licenses are delivered to the customer electronically. The Company sends the license key to the customer to download the related software from the Company portal. We recognize revenue upon delivery of these licenses.

 

Services Revenue

 

The Company has maintenance contracts that entitle customers to support and certain updates to the product. Revenue from maintenance contracts is recognized ratably over the related contract period, which generally ranges from one to five years.

 

Subscription Revenue

 

The Company sells subscription licenses that provide the customer with the right to use the software, maintenance and support and certain updates to the product. Subscription licenses are delivered electronically by either the Company’s cloud licensing server or by sending a term license key to the customer to download the related software from the Company portal. Revenue from subscription licenses is recognized ratably over the related contract period, which generally ranges from one month to one year.

 

The Company’s product sales by geographic area are presented in Note 5.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid holdings with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts that reflects our best estimate of potentially uncollectible trade receivables. The allowance is based on assessments of the collectability of specific customer accounts and the general aging and size of the accounts receivable. We regularly review the adequacy of our allowance for doubtful accounts by considering such factors as historical experience, credit worthiness, and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. We specifically reserve for those accounts deemed uncollectible. We also establish, and adjust, a general allowance for doubtful accounts based on our review of the aging and size of our accounts receivable. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $9,000 and $7,000, respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company had one reseller comprising 13.4%, and two resellers each comprising 12.3% of total sales. For the same periods ended September 30, 2021, the Company had three resellers comprising 24.5%, 14.6% and 13.5% of total sales.

 

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has three resellers comprising 28.9%, 25.7%, and 13.8% and four resellers comprising 39.7%, 15.0%, 11.9%, and 11.7%, 27.8%, respectively, of net accounts receivable.

 

For the purposes of this description, “sales” refers to the dollar value of orders received from these customers and partners in the period indicated. The sales values do not necessarily equal recognized revenue for these periods due to our revenue recognition policies which require deferral of revenue associated with prepaid software service fees. The loss of one of these resellers would not have a material impact as the Company could take over the end customer relationship.

 

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

 

In accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share,” the basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects per share amounts that would have resulted if diluted potential common stock had been converted to common stock. Dilutive common share equivalents as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, representing 248,216 of outstanding in-the-money warrants, were included in the computation of diluted net income per share using the Treasury Stock Method. During the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had total common stock equivalents of 3,200 and 65,217 respectively, which were excluded from the computation of net income per share because they are anti-dilutive.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due to the nature of the accounts and their short-term maturities.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

The FASB issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. There have been several ASUs to date, including those above, that amend the original text of ASC. Management believes that those issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to us or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact our financial statements.

 

Right-of-use Assets (ROU) and Lease Liabilities

 

On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02), which establishes ASC 842 and supersedes the lease accounting guidance under ASC 840. The standard generally requires lessees to recognize operating and finance lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use (ROU) assets on the balance sheet and provide enhanced disclosures on the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from lease arrangements. The Company adopted ASC 842 using the modified retrospective approach. The Company elected the package of practical expedients available for existing contracts, which allowed the Company to carry forward our historical assessments of lease identification, lease classification, and initial direct costs. The Company also elected a policy to not apply the recognition requirements of ASC 842 for short-term leases with a term of 12 months of less

 

As of January 1, 2022, the effective date, the Company identified one operating lease arrangement relating to the Company’s headquarters facility. The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in a recognition of an ROU asset and lease liability of $73,800 on the Company’s balance sheet relating to the leases as of January 1, 2022. The adoption of the standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statements of cash flows.

Forward-Looking Information

 

This report includes, in addition to historical information, “forward-looking statements”. All statements other than statements of historical fact we make in this report are forward-looking statements. In particular, the statements regarding industry prospects and our expectations regarding future results of operations or financial position (including those described in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations) are forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to a number of uncertainties and risks that could cause actual results to differ significantly from those described in the forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause such a difference include the following:

 

  the success of products depends on a number of factors including market acceptance and our ability to manage the risks associated with product introduction;
  local, regional, national and international economic conditions and events, and the impact they may have on us and our customers;
  our revenue could be adversely impacted if any of our significant customers reduces its order levels or fails to order during a reporting period; customer demand is based on many factors out of our control;
  as a result of the new revenue recognition standards, if any significant end user customer or reseller substantially changes its order level, or fails to order during the reporting period, whether the order is placed directly with us or through one of our non-stocking resellers, our software licenses revenue could be materially impacted; and
  other factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth under Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 31, 2022, and in other documents we have filed with the SEC.

Revenues

 

Our software revenue is entirely related to our GO-Global product line, and historically has been primarily derived from product licensing fees and service fees from maintenance contracts. The majority of this revenue has been earned, and continues to be earned, from a limited number of significant customers, most of whom are resellers. Many of our resellers purchase software licenses that they hold in inventory until they are resold to the ultimate end user (a “stocking reseller”).

 

When a software license is sold directly to an end user by us, or by one of our resellers who does not stock licenses into inventory, revenue is recognized immediately upon shipment, assuming all other criteria for revenue recognition are met. Consequently, if any significant end user customer substantially changes its order level, or fails to order during the reporting period, whether the order is placed directly with us or through one of our non-stocking resellers, our software licenses revenue could be materially impacted.

 

Almost all stocking resellers maintain inventories of our Windows products; few stocking resellers maintain inventories of our UNIX products.

Software licenses revenue from our UNIX/Linux products decreased by $14,100 or 90.6% to $1,500 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $15,900 for the same periods of 2021. The decrease was due to lower revenue from stocking order licenses and lower standard license sale.

 

Software Service Fees

 

Service fees attributable to our Windows product service increased by $110,700 or 16.2% to $795,200 during three months ended September 30, 2022, from $684,500 for the same period in 2021. The increase was due to an increase in subscriptions and maintenance renewals from existing customers.

The decrease was primarily the result of the lower level of UNIX product sales throughout the prior year and an expiration of a long-term maintenance contract.

 

Cost of Revenues

 

Cost of revenue is comprised primarily of software service costs, which represent the costs of customer service. Also included in cost of revenue are software product costs, which are primarily comprised of the amortization of capitalized software development costs and costs associated with licenses to third party software included in our product offerings, and the required import tax withholdings from Brazil resellers. We incur no significant shipping or packaging costs as virtually all of our deliveries are made via electronic means over the Internet.

 

Cost of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased by $13,700, or 38.0%, to $49,800 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $36,100 for the same period in 2021. Cost of revenue 5.6% of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and for the same period in 2021.

Selling and marketing expenses represented approximately 25.4% and 16.5% of total revenue for the three months ended September 30 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

The increase in selling and marketing expenses was primarily due to an increase in consulting services as we continue to expand our sales and marketing initiatives for the three months ended September 30, 2022.

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses primarily consist of employee costs, legal, accounting, other professional services (including those related to our patents), rent, travel and entertainment and insurance. Certain costs associated with being a publicly held corporation are also included in general and administrative expenses, as well as bad debt expense.

 

General and administrative expenses decreased by $267,500, or 164.7%, to $429,900 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $162,400 for the same period in 2021. General and administrative expenses represented approximately 43.9% and 17.7% of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

The increase in general and administrative expense was primarily due increase in employee related expenses and board of director fees granted during the three months ended September 30, 2022, that were not paid in the prior year period.

This represented approximately 38.7% and 38.5% of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

The increase in research and development expense was primarily due to an increase in wages and software subscriptions during the three months ended September 30, 2022.

 

Other Income

 

Other income decreased by $164,100 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same periods in 2021. The decrease primarily due to a decline in the value of marketable securities relative to the three months ended September 30,2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2022, we had cash of $4,821,400 and a working capital position of $4,207,600 as compared to cash of $4,755,300 and a working capital position of $4,316,500 at December 31, 2021. The increase in cash as of September 30, 2022 was primarily the result of cash provided by operations during the period. We expect our results from operations and capital resources will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months.

 

The following is a summary of our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

Net cash flows provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $76,200 while net cash flows provided for the nine months ended September 30,2021 was $208,800. The decrease in cash flows used in operating activities is the result of an increase in accounts receivable and deferred revenue and offset by decrease in prepaid assets and change in value in marketable securities compared to the prior year period.

 

The Company had net cash flows of $10,100 used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, while the Company had net cash flows of $24,100 for the same periods ended September 30, 2021.

Not applicable.

 

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2022.

 

There has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

 

There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those set forth under Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2022.

 

The coronavirus pandemic could adversely affect our results of operations.

 

The recent coronavirus pandemic throughout the United States and the world has resulted in the United States and other countries halting or sharply curtailing the movement of people, goods and services. All of this has caused extended shutdowns of businesses and the prolonged economic impact remains uncertain. At this point, we believe the conditions will have a material adverse effect on our business but given the rapidly changing developments we cannot accurately predict what effects these conditions will have on our business, which will depend on, among other factors, the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the duration of the outbreak and travel restrictions and business closures imposed by the United States and various other governments.
