OMNIQ CORP.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of OMNIQ Corp, and its wholly owned subsidiaries, referred to herein as “we,” “us,” “OMNIQ,” or the “Company”. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary for fair financial statement presentation. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Certain prior period amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation. These condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Form 10-K”).
We describe our significant accounting policies in Note 2 of the notes to consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. During nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, there were no significant changes to those accounting policies.
Net loss per share is provided in accordance with FASB ASC 260-10, “Earnings per Share”. Basic net loss per common share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding, assuming all dilutive potential common shares were issued, unless doing so is anti-dilutive. The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for computing basic EPS for the nine-months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022 were and , respectively. Diluted net loss per share of common stock is the same as basic net loss per share of common stock because the effects of potentially dilutive securities are antidilutive.
September 30, 2023 | September 30, 2022 | |||||||
Options to purchase common stock | 1,601,657 | 2,173,583 | ||||||
Warrants to purchase common stock | 1,431,734 | 1,481,734 | ||||||
Potential shares excluded from diluted net loss per share | 3,033,391 | 3,655,317 |
Contract Balances
We recognize revenue once the product has been shipped. For some transactions we collect a deposit on the transaction. These deposits represent cash received under noncancelable contracts before the related product or service is transferred to the customer. We record this as a customer deposit, which is included in accounts payable and other accrued expenses on our consolidated balance sheet. Such amounts are recognized as revenue by the Company upon shipment of the product or performance of the services when the revenue recognition criteria is met and generally within one year.
The balances of customer deposits included in accounts payable and other accrued expenses as of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022 were approximately $573 thousand and $1 million, respectively. The amount of revenue recognized in the nine-months ended September 30, 2023, that related to the customer deposits as of December 31, 2022 was $1.2 million.

NOTE 2 – LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. The following are the principal conditions or events which potentially raise substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern:
● | Balancing the need for operational cash with the need to add additional products | |
● | Timely and cost-effective development of products | |
● | Working capital deficit of $43 million as of September 30, 2023 | |
● | Accumulated deficit of $96 million as of September 30, 2023 | |
● | Multiple periods of losses from operations | |
● | Noncompliance with certain debt covenants |
These facts and others have raised concerns about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis, which we have successfully accomplished to date.
The following conditions, plans and actions are currently being implemented to address the Company’s conditions:
● | Outstanding warrants exist from prior offerings that could be exercised for cash depending upon the performance of our stock. |
● | The Company’s acquisition of Dangot Computers, Ltd. has improved the balance sheet, profitability, and cash flow and is expected to help the Company as a whole to generate positive cash flows from operations for the foreseeable future. |
● | The acquisition of Dangot has added capabilities to the Company which have already transformed into significant new orders in the Parking segment. Management expects the collaboration and cross sales to contribute to improved revenues and margins. |
● | Management is evaluating operating expenses and is developing a plan to reduce expenditures without negatively impacting current operations. |
● | Blue Star - The Company’s total accounts payable due to Blue Star as of September 30, 2023, was approximately $39 million. Blue Star is an unsecured creditor, financing a substantial amount the Company’s supply chain demand. Management believes that Blue Star will continue supplying the Company with preferable credit terms. Blue Star has agreed to the annual interest rate of 5% on invoices that are past due. As an unsecured creditor of the Company, Blue Star has no incentive to force a liquidation. The Company has enjoyed a good mutual relationship for the past four years. |
● | Management is in the process of finalizing a new line of credit with an additional financial institution. |
● | In October 2023 management finalized an equity raise which resulted in $2.5 million in net cash received from investors. See note 12. |

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company’s management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e)) as of September 30, 2023, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial and Accounting Officer) concluded that, as of September 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of the end of the period covered to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and its principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. This was due to the following material weaknesses which are indicative of many small companies with limited staff: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and Securities and Exchange Commission guidelines. Management anticipates that such disclosure controls and procedures will not be effective until the material weaknesses are remediated.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are 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 in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Principal Executive Officer, and our Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
During 2022, we identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which were disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
We have been implementing additional internal control procedures in order to address the material weaknesses identified in our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023.
