OBLONG, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2022
(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Business Description and Significant Accounting Policies

Business Description

Oblong, Inc. (“Oblong” or “we” or “us” or the “Company”) was formed as a Delaware corporation in May 2000 and is a provider of patented multi-stream collaboration technologies and managed services for video collaboration and network applications. Prior to March 6, 2020, Oblong, Inc. was named Glowpoint, Inc. (“Glowpoint”). On March 6, 2020, Glowpoint changed its name to Oblong, Inc.

Basis of Presentation

The Company's fiscal year ends on December 31 of each calendar year. The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared on substantially the same basis as our annual consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. In the opinion of the Company's management, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The December 31, 2021 year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data in this document was derived from audited consolidated financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q does not include all disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 and notes thereto included in the Company's fiscal 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 29, 2022 (the “2021 10-K”).

The results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods included in these condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or the entire fiscal year.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Oblong and our 100%-owned subsidiaries, (i) GP Communications, LLC (“GP Communications”), whose business function is to provide interstate telecommunications services for regulatory purposes, (ii) Oblong Industries, and (iii) Oblong Europe Limited, a subsidiary of Oblong Industries. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The U.S. Dollar is the functional currency for all subsidiaries.

Segments

The Company currently operates in two segments: (1) “Collaboration Products” which represents the Oblong Industries business surrounding our Mezzanine™ product offerings and (2) “Managed Services” which represents the Oblong (formerly Glowpoint) business surrounding managed services for video collaboration and network solutions. See Note 10 - Segment Reporting for further discussion.

Use of Estimates

Preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from the estimates made. We continually evaluate estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for reasonableness. Appropriate

-6-


adjustments, if any, to the estimates used are made prospectively based upon such periodic evaluation. The significant areas of estimation include determining the allowance for doubtful accounts, the estimated lives and recoverability of property and equipment and intangible assets, the inputs used in the valuation of goodwill and intangible assets in connection with our impairment tests, and the inputs used in the fair value of equity based awards.

Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies used in preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements are disclosed in our 2021 10-K, and there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13 as amended, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326).” Topic 326 introduces an impairment model that is based on expected credit losses, rather than incurred losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments (e.g. accounts receivable, loans and held-to-maturity securities), including certain off-balance sheet financial instruments (e.g., loan commitments). The expected credit losses should consider historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments, over the contractual term. Financial instruments with similar risk characteristics may be grouped together when estimating expected credit losses. Topic 326 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has evaluated the impact the new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements, and does not expect the impact to be material.

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options. The FASB is issuing this update to clarify and reduce diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity classified written call options (for example, warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. ASU 2021-04 is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity should apply the amendments prospectively to modifications or exchanges occurring after the effective date of the amendments. The Company has adopted this standard, effective January 1, 2022, and it did not have a material affect on our financial statements.

Casualty Loss

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company discovered that $533,000 of inventory was stolen from the Company’s warehouse in City of Industry, California. This theft has been recorded as a casualty loss of $533,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 on the Company’s condensed consolidated Statements of Operations. The theft is being investigated further by the Los Angeles, CA Sheriff’s Department and a claim has been filed with the Company’s insurance company. We are seeking to recover the majority of the loss through our insurance policies and we will offset the casualty loss with the recognition of a gain of any proceeds should we subsequently receive them from our insurance company. No assurances can be provided that we will be successful in recovering any or all of the casualty loss.

Note 2 - Liquidity and Going Concern Uncertainty

As of June 30, 2022, we had $5,107,000 in cash and working capital of $5,461,000. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we incurred a net loss of $13,572,000 and used $3,911,000 of net cash in operating activities.

Future Capital Requirements and Going Concern

Our capital requirements in the future will continue to depend on numerous factors, including the timing and amount of revenue for the Company, customer renewal rates and the timing of collection of outstanding accounts receivable, in each case particularly as it relates to the Company’s major customers, the expense to deliver services, expense for sales and marketing, expense for research and development, and capital expenditures. We expect to continue to invest in product development and sales and marketing expenses with the goal of growing the Company’s revenue in the future. The Company believes that, based on its current projection of revenue, expenses, capital expenditures, and cash flows, it will not have sufficient resources to fund its operations for the next twelve months following the filing of this Report. We believe additional capital will be required to fund operations and provide growth capital including investments in technology, product development and sales and marketing. To access capital to fund operations or provide growth capital, we will need to raise capital in one or more debt and/or equity offerings. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising necessary capital or that any such offering will be on terms acceptable to the Company. If we are unable to raise additional capital that may be needed on terms acceptable to us, it

-7-


could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The factors discussed above raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from these uncertainties.

Note 3 - Goodwill

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, goodwill was zero and $7,367,000, respectively, recorded in connection with the October 1, 2019 acquisition of Oblong Industries (our Collaboration Products reporting unit).
We test goodwill for impairment on an annual basis on September 30 of each year, or more frequently if events occur or circumstances change indicating that the fair value of the goodwill may be below its carrying amount. To determine the fair value of the reporting unit for the goodwill impairment test, we use a weighted average of the discounted cash flow method and market-based method.

We considered the sustained decline in our stock price to be a triggering event for an interim goodwill impairment test, as of both March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, and we recorded impairment charges against the carrying value of Goodwill of $6,229,000 and $7,367,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, as the carrying amount of the Collaboration Products reporting unit exceeded its fair value on the test dates. These charges are recognized as “Impairment Charges” on our condensed consolidated Statements of Operations. Following these impairment charges, our goodwill value was reduced to zero as of June 30, 2022.

At each reporting period, we determine if there was a triggering event that may result in an impairment of our intangible assets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we considered the declines in revenue for the Collaboration Products reporting segment to be a triggering event for an impairment test of intangible assets for this reporting unit. Based on the corresponding recoverability tests of the intangible assets for this reporting unit, we determined no impairment changes were required for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. The recoverability test consisted of comparing the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by those assets to the respective carrying amounts, and involves significant judgements and assumptions, related primarily to the future revenue and profitability of the assets. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated economic lives of the assets, which range from five years to ten years in accordance with ASC Topic 350.

Related amortization expense was $580,000, $1,160,000, $613,000, and $1,224,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Note 6 - Leases

We lease three facilities in Los Angeles, California and one facility in Austin, Texas, each providing office space. We also lease a facility in City of Industry, California, providing warehouse space. These leases expire between 2022 and 2024. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we exited leases in Boston, Massachusetts and Dallas, Texas. We currently occupy the warehouse space in City of Industry, and the office facility in Austin, Texas, and we have a sublease in place for one of the Los Angeles office spaces. With the exception of these spaces described above, we currently operate out of remote employment sites with a remote office located at 25587 Conifer Road, Suite 105-231, Conifer, Colorado 80433.

Lease expenses, including common charges and net of sublet proceeds, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $76,000, $145,000, $92,000, and $167,000, respectively.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, payments of $125,000, $298,000, $218,000, and $451,000 were made on leases, respectively. The following table summarizes the future undiscounted cash payments reconciled to the lease liability (in thousands):

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we did not enter into any new leases, we exited our Boston, MA and our Dallas, TX leases upon expiration, and we vacated two of the properties in Los Angeles. The properties we vacated are under leases until May 2023 and management does not expect to be able to sublet the properties given the limited time remaining on the leases. Therefore, due to not utilizing the asset, management believes that the right-of-use assets attached to these leases have lost their value. An impairment charge of $179,000 was recorded for these assets during the three months ended June 30, 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we entered into one new operating lease, modified one operating lease, and terminated two operating leases. The following table provides a reconciliation of activity for our right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities (in thousands):

The intrinsic value of vested options, unvested options and exercised options were not significant for all periods presented. Net stock compensation expense, related to stock options, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was a negative $1,000 made up of $83,000 in expense and $84,000 in forfeiture credits. No stock compensation expense, related to stock options, was recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The remaining unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for options as of June 30, 2022 is $247,000, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.00 years.
Restricted Stock Awards

As of June 30, 2022 and 2021, there were 627 unvested restricted stock awards outstanding, with a weighted average grant date price of $15.80. The awards were issued in 2014 and vest over the lesser of ten years, a change in control, or separation from the company. Due to the variability of the vesting, the expense was amortized over an average service period of five years, therefore, there is no unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock awards as of June 30, 2022.

Restricted Stock Units

As of June 30, 2022 and 2021, there were no unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”) outstanding. As of June 30, 2022, 28,904 vested RSUs remain outstanding as shares of common stock have not yet been delivered for these units in accordance with the terms of the RSUs.

There was no stock compensation expense related to RSUs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. There was no remaining unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for RSUs as of June 30, 2022.

Note 9 - Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding does not include any potentially dilutive securities or unvested restricted stock. Unvested restricted stock, although classified as issued and outstanding at June 30, 2022 and 2021, is considered contingently returnable until the restrictions lapse and will not be included in the basic net loss per share calculation until the shares are vested. Unvested restricted stock does not

-12-


contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends and dividend equivalents. Unvested RSUs are not included in calculations of basic net loss per share, as they are not considered issued and outstanding at time of grant.

Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potential shares of common stock, including stock options, preferred stock, RSUs, and unvested restricted stock, to the extent they are dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, all such common stock equivalents have been excluded from diluted net loss per share as the effect to net loss per share would be anti-dilutive (due to the net loss).

The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted net loss per share (in thousands, except per share data):

From time to time, we are subject to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings for which we have insurance coverage.

COVID-19

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization announced that infections of the novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) had become pandemic, and on March 13, 2020, the U.S. President announced a National Emergency relating to the disease. There has been continued widespread infection in the United States and abroad, as COVID-19 has had, and continues to have, a significant impact around the world, prompting governments and businesses to take unprecedented measures in response. Such measures have included restrictions on travel and business operations, temporary closures of businesses, hybrid operations of businesses and for workers, and quarantine and shelter-in-place orders. Some businesses have imposed vaccine mandates and many businesses are experiencing labor shortages. These factors have also impacted the supply chain, leading to significant delays and shortages. These measures, while intended to protect human life, have had serious adverse impacts on domestic and foreign economies. The severity and duration of such impacts are uncertain as new variants of the COVID-19 virus emerge and a resulting surge in diagnosed cases may be seen. The sweeping nature of the coronavirus pandemic makes it extremely difficult to predict how the Company’s business and operations will be affected in the longer run. The COVID-19 pandemic has materially affected our revenue and results of operations for 2020, 2021, and the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decreases in our revenue are primarily attributable to the effects of the global pandemic on our channel partners and customers as they evaluate how and when to re-open their commercial real estate footprints. The Company’s results reflect the challenges due to long and unpredictable sales cycles, delays in customer retrofit budgets, project starts, and supply delayed orders in our distribution channels as a direct result of customer implementation schedules shifting due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic in particular has, and may continue to have, a significant economic and business impact on our Company. During 2020, 2021, and the first half of 2022, we have seen a continuing weakness in revenue as our customers across all sectors delayed order placements in reaction to the ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic that caused our customers to suspend or postpone real estate retrofit projects due to budget and occupancy uncertainties. We continue to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our customers, suppliers and logistics providers, and to evaluate governmental actions being taken to curtail and respond to the spread of the virus. The significance and duration of the ongoing impact on us is still uncertain. Material adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on market drivers, our customers, suppliers or logistics providers could significantly impact our operating results. We will continue to actively follow, assess and analyze the ongoing

-17-


impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and adjust our organizational structure, strategies, plans and processes to respond. Because the situation continues to evolve, we cannot reasonably estimate the ultimate impact to our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial position that the COVID-19 pandemic may have. Continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic and government actions in response thereto could cause further disruptions to our operations and the operations of our customers, suppliers and logistics partners and could significantly adversely affect our near-term and long-term revenues, earnings, liquidity and cash flows.

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

Overview

We are a provider of patented multi-stream collaboration products and managed services for video collaboration and network solutions.

Mezzanine™ Product Offerings

Our flagship product is called Mezzanine™, a family of turn-key products that enable dynamic and immersive visual collaboration across multi-users, multi-screens, multi-devices, and multi-locations. Mezzanine™ allows multiple people to share, control and arrange content simultaneously, from any location, enabling all participants to see the same content in its entirety at the same time in identical formats, resulting in dramatic enhancements to both in-room and virtual videoconference presentations. Applications include video telepresence, laptop and application sharing, whiteboard sharing and slides. Spatial input allows content to be spread across screens, spanning different walls, scalable to an arbitrary number of displays and interaction with our proprietary wand device. Mezzanine™ substantially enhances day-to-day virtual meetings with technology that accelerates decision making, improves communication, and increases productivity. Mezzanine™ scales up to support the most immersive and commanding innovation centers; across to link labs, conference spaces, and situation rooms; and down for the smallest work groups. Mezzanine’s digital collaboration platform can be sold as delivered systems in various configurations for small teams to total immersion experiences. The family includes the 200 Series (two display screen), 300 Series (three screen), and 600 Series (six screen). We also sell maintenance and support contracts related to Mezzanine™.

Historically, customers have used Mezzanine™ products in conventional commercial real estate spaces such as conference rooms. As discussed below, sales of our Mezzanine product have been adversely affected by commercial response to the COVID-19 pandemic. We expect to continue to invest in product development and sales and marketing expenses with the goal of growing the Company’s revenue in the future. These initiatives will require significant investment in technology and product development and sales and marketing. We believe additional capital will be required to fund these investments and our operations.

Unallocated operating expenses in Corporate include costs during the 2022 Second Quarter that are not specific to a particular segment but are general to the group; included are expenses incurred for administrative and accounting staff, general liability and other insurance, professional fees and other similar corporate expenses.

Revenue. Total revenue decreased 35% in the 2022 Second Quarter compared to the 2021 Second Quarter. The following table summarizes the changes in components of our revenue (in thousands), and the significant changes in revenue are discussed in more detail below.

Managed Services

The decrease in revenue for video collaboration services is mainly attributable to lower revenue from existing customers (either from reductions in price or level of services) and loss of customers to competition.

The decrease in revenue for network services is mainly attributable to net attrition of customers and lower demand for our services given the competitive environment and pressure on pricing that exists in the network services business.


-20-


We expect revenue declines in our Managed Services segment will continue in the future.

Collaboration Products
The decrease in revenue for visual collaboration product offerings is primarily attributable to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our existing and target customers as they evaluate how and when to re-open their conventional office and conference facility footprints, as Mezzanine™ products are currently used in conventional spaces such as conference rooms. The Company’s results reflect the challenges due to long and unpredictable sales cycles, delays in customer retrofit budgets, project starts, and supply delayed orders in our distribution channels as a direct result of customer implementation schedules shifting due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic in particular has, and may continue to have, a significant economic and business impact on our Company. During 2020, 2021 and the first half of 2022, we saw a weakness in revenue as our prospective customers across all sectors delayed order placements in reaction to the ongoing impacts of the pandemic that caused our customers to suspend or postpone real estate retrofit projects due to budget and occupancy uncertainties. We continue to monitor the impact of the pandemic on our customers, suppliers and logistics providers, and evaluate governmental actions being taken to curtail and respond to the spread of the virus. The significance and duration of the ongoing impact on us is still uncertain. Material adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on market drivers, our customers, suppliers or logistics providers may be expected to continue to significantly impact our operating results. We will continue to actively follow, assess and analyze the ongoing impact of the pandemic and adjust our organizational structure, strategies, plans and processes to respond. Because the situation continues to evolve, we cannot reasonably estimate the ultimate impact to our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial position that the pandemic may have. Continuation of the pandemic and government actions in response thereto could cause further disruptions to our operations and the operations of our customers, suppliers and logistics partners and may be expected to continue to significantly adversely affect our near-term and long-term revenues, earnings, liquidity and cash flows.

Cost of Revenue (exclusive of depreciation and amortization and casualty loss). Cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization and casualty loss, includes all internal and external costs related to the delivery of revenue. Cost of revenue also includes taxes which have been billed to customers. Cost of revenue by segment is presented in the following table (in thousands):

20222021
Cost of Revenue
Managed Services$525 $739 
Collaboration Products401 510 
Total cost of revenue$926 $1,249 

The decrease in cost of revenue is mainly attributable to lower costs associated with the decrease in revenue during the same period. The Company’s gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 31% in the 2022 Second Quarter compared to 39% in the 2021 Second Quarter.

Total operating expenses$9,440 $3,278 $6,162 188 %

Research and Development. Research and development expenses include internal and external costs related to developing new product offerings as well as features and enhancements to our existing product offerings. The decrease in research and development expenses for the 2022 Second Quarter compared to the 2021 Second Quarter is primarily attributable to lower personnel costs due to reduced headcount, partially offset by a $66,000 increase in consulting and outsourced labor costs between these periods.

Sales and Marketing Expenses. The decrease in sales and marketing expenses for 2022 Second Quarter compared to the 2021 Second Quarter is mainly attributable to the lower personnel costs due to reduced headcount and lower marketing costs.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses include direct corporate expenses and costs of personnel in the various corporate support categories, including executive, finance and accounting, legal, human resources and information technology. The decrease in general and administrative expenses for the 2022 Second Quarter compared to the 2021 Second Quarter is mainly attributable to a decrease in bad debt expense of $195,000.

Impairment Charges. The impairment charges in the 2022 Second Quarter are mainly attributable to impairment charges on goodwill for our Collaboration Products reporting unit, and the impairment in the 2021 Second Quarter was attributable to impairment charges on property and equipment no longer in service. Future declines of our revenue, cash flows and/or stock price may give rise to a triggering event that may require the Company to record impairment charges in the future related to our intangible assets and other long-lived assets.

Casualty Loss. During the second quarter of 2022, the Company discovered that $533,000 of inventory was stolen from the Company’s warehouse in City of Industry, California. This theft has been recorded as a casualty loss of $533,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 on the Company’s condensed consolidated Statements of Operations. The theft is being investigated further by the Los Angeles, CA Sheriff’s Department and a claim has been filed with the Company’s insurance company. We are seeking to recover the majority of the loss through our insurance policies and we will offset the casualty loss with the recognition of a gain of any proceeds should we subsequently receive them from our insurance company. No assurances can be provided that we will be successful in recovering any or all of the casualty loss.

Depreciation and Amortization. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses for the 2022 Second Quarter compared to the 2021 Second Quarter is mainly attributable to the disposition and impairment of certain assets during the second half of 2021 and the first half of 2022, as well as a decrease in depreciation as certain assets became fully depreciated.

Loss from Operations. The increase in the Company’s loss from operations for the 2022 Second Quarter compared to the 2021 Second Quarter is mainly attributable to lower revenue and gross profit and higher operating expenses as addressed above.

Managed Services

The decrease in revenue for video collaboration services is mainly attributable to lower revenue from existing customers (either from reductions in price or level of services) and loss of customers to competition.

The decrease in revenue for network services is mainly attributable to net attrition of customers and lower demand for our services given the competitive environment and pressure on pricing that exists in the network services business.

We expect revenue declines in our Managed Services segment will continue in the future.

Collaboration Products
The decrease in revenue for visual collaboration product offerings is primarily attributable to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our existing and target customers as they evaluate how and when to re-open their conventional office and conference facility footprints, as Mezzanine™ products are currently used in conventional spaces such as conference rooms, as discussed above in - Oblong’s Results of Operations - Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 (the “2022 Second Quarter”) compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 (the “2021 Second Quarter”).

Cost of Revenue (exclusive of depreciation and amortization and casualty loss). Cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization and casualty loss, includes all internal and external costs related to the delivery of revenue. Cost of revenue also includes taxes which have been billed to customers. Cost of revenue by segment is presented in the following table (in thousands):

Research and Development. Research and development expenses include internal and external costs related to developing new product offerings as well as features and enhancements to our existing product offerings. The increase in research and development expenses for the first half of 2022 compared to the first half of 2021 is primarily attributable to a $300,000

-24-


increase in consulting and outsourced labor costs between these periods, partially offset by lower personnel costs due to reduced headcount.

Sales and Marketing Expenses. The decrease in sales and marketing expenses for the first half of 2022 compared to the first half of 2021 is mainly attributable to lower personnel costs due to reduced headcount and lower marketing costs.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses include direct corporate expenses and costs of personnel in the various corporate support categories, including executive, finance and accounting, legal, human resources and information technology. The decrease in general and administrative expenses for the first half of 2022 compared to the first half of 2021 is mainly attributable to decreases of $390,000 in stock-based expense for professional service fees and $324,000 in bad debt expense, partially offset by an increase in personnel expenses, primarily attributable to receiving an Employee Retention Credit (“ERC”) during the first half of 2021 and not during the first half of 2022.

Impairment Charges. The impairment charges in the first half of 2022 are primarily attributable to impairment charges on goodwill for our Collaboration Products reporting unit and the impairment of the right-of-use assets associated with two of our Los Angeles, CA leases. The impairment charge in the first half of 2021 was attributable to impairment charges on property and equipment no longer in service. Future declines of our revenue, cash flows and/or stock price may give rise to a triggering event that may require the Company to record impairment charges in the future related to our intangible assets and other long-lived assets.

Casualty Loss. During the second quarter of 2022, the Company discovered that $533,000 of inventory was stolen from the Company’s warehouse. This theft has been recorded as a casualty loss of $533,000 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 on the Company’s condensed consolidated Statements of Operations.

We are seeking to recover the majority of the loss through our insurance policies and we will offset the casualty loss with the recognition of a gain of any proceeds should we subsequently receive them from our insurance company. No assurances can be provided that we will be successful in recovering any or all of the casualty loss.

Depreciation and Amortization. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses for the first half of 2022 compared to the first half of 2021 is mainly attributable to the disposition and impairment of certain assets during the second half of 2021 and the first half of 2022 as well as a decrease in depreciation as certain assets became fully depreciated.

Loss from Operations. The increase in the Company’s loss from operations for the first half of 2022 compared to the first half of 2021 is mainly attributable to lower revenue and gross profit and higher operating expenses as addressed above.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2022, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Inflation

Management does not believe inflation had a significant effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented.

Critical Accounting Policies

There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Critical accounting policies and the significant estimates made in accordance with such policies are regularly discussed with our Audit Committee. Those policies are discussed under “Critical Accounting Policies” in “Part II. Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” as well as in our condensed consolidated financial statements and the footnotes thereto, each included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December, 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on March 29, 2022 (the “2021 Annual Report”).

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2022, we had $5,107,000 in cash and working capital of $5,461,000. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we incurred a net loss of $13,572,000 and used $3,911,000 of net cash in operating activities.


-25-


Our capital requirements in the future will continue to depend on numerous factors, including the timing and amount of revenue for the Company, customer renewal rates and the timing of collection of outstanding accounts receivable, in each case particularly as it relates to the Company’s major customers, the expense to deliver services, expense for sales and marketing, expense for research and development, and capital expenditures. We expect to continue to invest in product development and sales and marketing expenses with the goal of growing the Company’s revenue in the future. The Company believes that, based on its current projection of revenue, expenses, capital expenditures, and cash flows, it will not have sufficient resources to fund its operations for the next twelve months following the filing of this Report. We believe additional capital will be required to fund operations and provide growth capital including investments in technology, product development and sales and marketing. To access capital to fund operations or provide growth capital, we will need to raise capital in one or more debt and/or equity offerings. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising necessary capital or that any such offering will be on terms acceptable to the Company. If we are unable to raise additional capital that may be needed on terms acceptable to us, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The factors discussed above raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from these uncertainties.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by the rules and regulations of the SEC, we are not required to provide this information.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2022. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2022, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms and are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 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

From time to time, we are subject to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings for which we have insurance coverage. As of the date hereof, we are not party to any legal proceedings that we currently believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

A description of the risks associated with our business, financial conditions and results of operations is set forth in “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our 2021 Annual Report. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to these risks during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The risks described in the 2021 Annual Report are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results.


-26-


We may incur non-cash impairment charges for our right-of-use and intangible assets which would negatively impact our operating results. The failure to use the full value of our right-of-use assets, such as that which occurred in the second quarter of 2022, could result in significant impairment charges which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

The Company assesses the impairment of purchased intangible assets subject to amortization when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets might not be recoverable. The determination of related estimated useful lives and whether or not these assets are impaired involves significant judgments, related primarily to the future profitability and/or future value of the assets. Changes in the Company’s strategic plan and/or other-than-temporary changes in market conditions could significantly impact these judgments and could require adjustments to recorded asset balances. As a result of declines in revenue for the Collaboration Products reporting segment, we concluded that a triggering event had occurred and conducted impairment testing of our intangible assets during the six months ended June 30, 2022. Based on the corresponding recoverability tests of the intangible assets for the Collaboration Products reporting unit, we determined that no impairment changes were required for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The recoverability test consisted of comparing the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by those assets to the respective carrying amounts.

The fair value determinations underlying the quantitative aspect of our impairment testing require considerable judgment and are sensitive to changes in underlying assumptions, estimates and market factors. Estimating the fair value of our intangible assets requires us to make assumptions and estimates regarding our future plans, as well as industry, economic and regulatory conditions. If current expectations are not met, or if market factors outside of our control change significantly, then our intangible assets might become impaired in the future, adversely affecting our operating results. The carrying amounts of our intangible assets are susceptible to impairment risk if there are unfavorable changes in such assumptions, estimates, and market factors. To the extent that we experience future declines in revenue, business conditions deteriorate, or key assumptions and estimates differ significantly from our management’s expectations, it may be necessary to recognize an impairment charge in the future.

Cyber-attacks, data breaches or malware or a breach of our physical security systems may disrupt our business operations, result in the loss of critical and confidential information, harm our operating results and financial condition, and damage our reputation; and cyber-attacks or data breaches on our customers’ networks, or in cloud-based services provided by or enabled by us, could result in claims of liability against us, damage our reputation or otherwise harm our business. In the ordinary course of providing video communications services, we transmit sensitive and proprietary information of our customers. We are dependent on the proper function, availability and security of our information systems, including without limitation those systems utilized in our operations. We have undertaken measures to protect the safety and security of our inventory and of our information systems and the data maintained within those systems, and on an annual basis, we test the adequacy of our security measures. Despite our implementation of security measures, there can be no assurance our safety and security measures will detect and prevent security breaches in a timely manner or otherwise prevent damage or interruption of our systems and operations or inventory theft. The products and services we sell to customers, and our servers, data centers and the cloud-based solutions on which our data, and data of our customers, suppliers and business partners are stored, are vulnerable to improper functioning, cyber-attacks, data breaches, malware, and similar disruptions from unauthorized access or tampering by malicious actors or inadvertent error. Any such event could compromise our products, services and networks or those of our customers, and the proprietary information stored on our systems or those of our customers could be improperly accessed, processed, disclosed, lost or stolen, which could subject us to liability to our customers, suppliers, business partners and others, give rise to legal/regulatory action, and could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition and may cause damage to our reputation. A security breach at any one of our physical facilities, such as that occurred in the second quarter of 2022, could result in a significant loss of inventory, or increase expenses relating to the resolution and future prevention of similar thefts, any of which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Efforts to limit the ability of malicious actors to disrupt the operations of the Internet or undermine our own security efforts may be costly to implement and meet with resistance and may not be successful. Breaches of security in our customers’ networks, or in cloud-based services provided by or enabled by us, regardless of whether the breach is attributable to a vulnerability in our products or services, could result in claims of liability against us, damage our reputation, or otherwise harm our business.


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

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities by the Company

There have been no unregistered sales of securities by the Company during the period covered by this Report that have not been previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K.
