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.
8 |
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.
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 and 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.

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.
