ONE STOP SYSTEMS, INC. (OSS)

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For The Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2020 and 2019

NOTE 1 – THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Historical Information and Company Overview

One Stop Systems, Inc. (“we,” “our,” “OSS,” or the “Company”) was originally incorporated as a California corporation in 1999 after initially being formed as a California limited liability company in 1998. On December 14, 2017, the Company was reincorporated as a Delaware corporation in connection with its initial public offering.  The Company designs, manufactures and markets industrial grade computer systems and components that are based on industry standard computer architectures. The Company markets its products to manufacturers of automated equipment used for entertainment, telecommunications, industrial and military applications.

During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company formed a new wholly-owned subsidiary in Germany, One Stop Systems, GmbH (“OSS GmbH”).  During July 2016, the Company acquired Mission Technologies Group, Inc. (“Magma”) and it operations.

In April 2017, the Company and a related entity formed a joint venture named SkyScale, LLC in the State of California (“SkyScale”).  In accordance with the Contribution Agreement, each member contributed $750,000 and received a 50% interest in the joint venture.  The purpose of SkyScale was to engage in the business of providing high performance computing capabilities as cloud services.  As a result of changes in the competitive landscape and downward pressure on pricing from large competitors, the members to the SkyScale joint venture agreement agreed to dissolve SkyScale and ceased operations as of December 31, 2018.

On August 31, 2018, the Company acquired Concept Development Inc. (“CDI”) located in Irvine, California.  CDI specializes in the design and manufacture of custom high-performance computing systems for airborne in-flight entertainment and networking systems.

On October 31, 2018, OSS GmbH acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of Bressner Technology GmbH, a Germany limited liability company located near Munich, Germany (“Bressner”).  Bressner provides standard and customized servers, panel PCs, and PCIe expansion systems.  Bressner also provides manufacturing, test, sales and marketing services for customers throughout Europe.

Liquidity and Going Concern Considerations

 

Given our recent operating losses, the Company’s primary sources of liquidity have been provided by (i) the Company’s February 2018 initial public offering (net proceeds were approximately $16,100,000), (ii) March 2019 notes payable from members of the Board of Directors and others of $1,500,000, (iii) the July 2019 sale of 1,554,832 shares of the Company’s common stock for net cash proceeds of $2,488,148; (iv) the April 24, 2020 sale of $3,000,000 of Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes issued at a 10% original issue discount and (v) receipt of approximately $1,500,000 on April 28, 2020 of government loan proceeds under the Paycheck Protection Program.

 

As of June 30, 2020, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were $4,654,602 and working capital was $14,381,656.  Cash and cash equivalents held by Bressner totaled $677,715 (USD) at June 30, 2020, and Bressner’s debt covenants do not permit the use of those funds by its parent company. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company experienced an operating loss of $1,917,040, with cash used in operating activities of $2,935,059.  Our largest customer, engaged in the media and entertainment industry, is having significant financial hardships attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic and as a result has been slow in paying its outstanding accounts receivables. The Company has formulated a plan whereby extended payment terms have been made available, and our customer is presently honoring those terms.

 

The Company’s revenue growth, inclusive of two acquisitions made in 2018, has resulted in growth of the Company as a whole, but has been offset by increased spending in all areas of operating expenses:  general and administrative, marketing and selling, and research and development.  

 

The coronavirus, or COVID-19, which has been declared by the World Health Organization to be a “public health emergency of international concern,” has spread across the globe and is impacting worldwide economic

10


activity. A public health pandemic, including COVID-19, poses the risk that we or our employees, contractors, suppliers, and other partners may be prevented from conducting business activities for an indefinite period of time, including due to shutdowns that may be requested or mandated by governmental authorities.

 

More generally, COVID-19 raises the possibility of an extended global economic downturn, which could affect demand for our products and services and impact our results and financial condition even after the pandemic is contained and remediation/restriction measures are lifted. For example, we may be unable to collect receivables from customers that are significantly impacted by COVID-19. Also, a decrease in orders in a given period could negatively affect our revenues in future periods. COVID-19 may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, including risks associated with our customers and supply chain. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of the impact of COVID-19 to our business.

 

At present, it is clear the global economy has been negatively impacted by COVID-19, and demand for some of our products and services have been reduced due to uncertainty and the economic impact of COVID-19. For example, customers in certain of the industries most impacted by COVID-19, have requested, and we expect will continue to request, relief to existing contracts or payment obligations, and the impact of those is uncertain. Furthermore, some customers are delaying payments owed to the Company while they address immediate financial crises in their operations due to COVID-19. In particular, in the media and entertainment industry, demand for the use of outdoor media equipment has been impacted due to restrictions on public gatherings. Until such restrictions improve, we expect that demand for certain of our clients’ products and services will be limited, and thus, may impact our financial results and operations.

 

Specifically, our business has also begun to be negatively affected by a range of external factors related to COVID-19 that are not within our control. For example, numerous measures have been implemented by governmental authorities across the globe to contain the virus, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, restrictions and limitations of public gatherings, and business limitations and shutdowns. Many of our customers’ businesses have been severely impacted by these measures and some have been required to reduce employee headcount as a result. If a significant number of our customers are unable to continue as a going concern, this would have an adverse impact on our business and financial condition. In addition, many of our customers are working remotely, which may delay the timing of new business and implementations of our services. If COVID-19 continues to have a substantial impact on our partners, customers, or suppliers, our results of operations and overall financial performance will be harmed.

Though management has been proactively managing through the current known impacts, if the situation further deteriorates or the outbreak results in further restriction on both supply and demand factors, our cash flows, financial position and operating results for fiscal year 2020 and beyond will be negatively impacted. Neither the length of time nor the magnitude of the negative impacts can be presently determined.

The longer the COVID-19 pandemic persists, the greater the potential for significant adverse impact to our business operations.   Quarantines, travel restrictions, prohibitions on non-essential gatherings, shelter-in-place orders and other similar directives and policies intended to reduce the spread of the disease, may reduce our productivity and that of the third parties on which we rely and may disrupt and delay many aspects of our business. .

We have not developed a specific and comprehensive contingency plan designed to address the challenges and risks presented by the COVID-19 pandemic and, even if and when we do develop such a plan, there can be no assurance that such plan will be effective in mitigating the potential adverse effects on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Management’s plans with respect to the above is to continue its efforts towards responding to the changing economic landscape attributable to COVID-19, to restructure the Company with the primary objectives of reducing costs, conserving cash, strengthening margins, and improving company-wide execution.  Specific actions already implemented by management include a reduction in force, a freeze on hiring, reduced work week, minimizing overtime, travel and entertainment, and contractor costs.  On April 7, 2020, the Company implemented a cost reduction plan which included the termination of certain employees and elimination of certain costs.  Estimated savings from this effort are estimated to be $2.5 to $3.0 million for the year ending 2020.  

While management expects these actions to result in prospective cost reductions, management is also committed to securing debt and/or equity financing to ensure that liquidity will be sufficient to meet the Company’s

11


cash requirements through at least a period of the next twelve months. Management believes potential sources of liquidity include at least the following:

 

 

In March 2019, the Company received funding commitments in the amount of $4,000,000 from members of the Board of Directors, of which $1,500,000 has been drawn through December 31, 2019, of which notes payable $660,081 remains outstanding at June 30, 2020.  The unused remaining funding commitments expired as of April 1, 2020.

 

 

In May 2019, the Company filed a Form S-3 prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Commission which became effective on June 19, 2019, and allows the Company to offer up to $100,000,000 aggregate dollar amount of shares of its common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants to purchase its common stock, preferred stock or debt securities, subscription rights to purchase its common stock, preferred stock or debt securities and\or units consisting of some or all of these securities, in any combination, together or separately, in one of more offerings, in amounts, at prices and on the terms that the Company will determine at the time of the offering and which will be set forth in a prospectus supplement and any related free writing prospectus.

 

 

On April 24, 2020, the Company completed a $6.0 million debt financing on a non-interest bearing convertible note with a 10% original issue discount.  The first tranche of $3.0 million was received April 27, 2020, with an additional $3.0 million available seven months from the date of closing at the option of the Company conditioned upon meeting certain requirements.  The note is repayable in twenty-two installments beginning three months after closing in cash or shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

 

On April 28, 2020, the Company received a Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan in the amount of $1,499,360.  Management believes that most of the loan, if not all, will likely be forgiven.

 

As a result of management’s cost reduction plans, the Company’s potential sources of liquidity and management’s most recent cash flow forecasts, management believes that the Company has sufficient liquidity to satisfy its anticipated cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. However, there can be no assurance that management’s cost reduction efforts will be effective, the forecasted cash flows will be achieved, or that external sources of financing, including the issuance of debt and/or equity securities, will be available at times and on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all.  

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis of accounting in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”), as set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”).  

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the presumption that users of the interim financial information have either read or have access to the audited consolidated financial statements for the latest year ended December 31, 2019.  Accordingly, note disclosures which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the December 31, 2019 audited consolidated financial statements have been omitted from these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements.  The Company evaluated all subsequent events and transactions through the date of filing this report.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying condensed financial statements.  Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020.  For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2019 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 26, 2020.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of OSS, which include the acquisition of Concept Development Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary, OSS GmbH, which also includes the

12


acquisition of Bressner Technology GmbH.  Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

There have been no changes to our accounting policies disclosed in our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes for the year ended December 31, 2019.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions.

 

On an ongoing basis, our management evaluates these estimates and assumptions, including those related to determination of standalone selling prices of our products and services, allowance for doubtful account and sales reserves, income tax valuations, stock-based compensation, goodwill, intangible assets and inventory valuations and recoverability. We base our estimates on historical data and experience, as well as various other factors that our management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities.

 

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. We are not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to our estimates or assumptions or a revision of the carrying value of our assets or liabilities as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These estimates and assumptions may change as new events occur and additional information is obtained. As a result, actual results could differ materially from these estimates and assumptions.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”).  Under ASU 2016-02, lessees will be required to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term.  ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal year 2023.  Early application is permitted.  Lessees must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements.  The modified retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented.  Lessees may not apply a full retrospective transition approach.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-02 on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.  Based on our preliminary analysis, management expects the Company’s assets and liabilities to increase by the present value of the lease payments disclosed in Note 9.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 amends the guidance on the impairment of financial instruments. This update adds an impairment model (known as the current expected credit losses model) that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Under the new guidance, an entity recognizes, as an allowance, its estimate of expected credit losses. In November 2019, ASU 2016-13 was amended by ASU 2019-10 that changed the effective date of ASU 2016-13 to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. Further, the ASU clarifies that operating lease receivables are not within the scope of ASC Subtopic 326-20 and should instead be accounted for under the new leasing standard, ASC 842. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2016-13 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

13


In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”) as part of its overall simplification initiative to reduce costs and complexity of applying accounting standards. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions from Topic 740, Income Taxes, including (i) the exception to the incremental approach for intra period tax allocation; (ii) the exception to accounting for basis differences when there are ownership changes in foreign investments; and (iii) the exception in interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. ASU 2019-12 also simplifies GAAP in several other areas of Topic 740 such as (i) franchise taxes and other taxes partially based on income; (ii) transactions with a government that result in a step up in the tax basis of goodwill; (iii) separate financial statements of entities not subject to tax; and (iv) enacted changes in tax laws in interim periods. ASU 2019-12 is effective for annual reporting periods and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2021, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2019-12 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Recently Implemented Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in FASB Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. ASU 2014-09 implements a five-step process for customer contract revenue recognition that focuses on transfer of control, as opposed to transfer of risk and rewards.  This guidance provides a single, comprehensive accounting model for revenue arising from contracts with customers. This guidance supersedes most of the existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. Under this model, revenue is recognized at an amount that a company expects to be entitled to upon transferring control of goods or services to a customer, as opposed to when risks and rewards transfer to a customer. The new guidance also requires additional disclosures about the nature, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flow arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments. We adopted this standard beginning January 1, 2019 and used the modified retrospective method of adoption. Under the new guidance, based on the nature of our contracts, we continued to recognize revenue in a similar manner as with the former guidance. Additionally, we expect the unit of accounting, that is, the identification of performance obligations, will be consistent with current revenue guidance. Accordingly, the adoption of this standard did not significantly impact our revenues.  

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU 2016-15”), which is intended to reduce the existing diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted, provided that all of the amendments are adopted in the same period. The Company’s adoption of this guideline did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business (“ASU 2017-01”). The amendments in this update clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. ASU 2017-01 is effective for the Company for the year ended December 31, 2019 and interim reporting periods within 2020. The effect of the adoption of this guidance did not significantly impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In July 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-11 (“ASU 2017-11”), which addressed (I) accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features, and (II) replacement of the indefinite deferral for mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of certain nonpublic entities and certain mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests with a scope exception. The main provisions of Part I of ASU 2017-11 is to change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments and embedded features with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument or embedded conversion option no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value as a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments, the amendments require entities that present

14


earnings per share (EPS) to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS. Under previous US GAAP, the existence of down round features often result in an accounting conclusion that the evaluated feature or instrument is not indexed to the entity’s own stock, which results in classification as a derivative liability. ASU 2017-11 was adopted early by the Company on April 1, 2020, with adjustments (if any) reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year. The Company’s April 2020 convertible note payable described in Note 7 possesses down round features.

 

In September 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Stock-based Compensation: Improvements to Nonemployee Share-based Payment Accounting, which amends the existing accounting standards for share-based payments to nonemployees. This ASU aligns much of the guidance on measuring and classifying nonemployee awards with that of awards to employees. Under the new guidance, the measurement of nonemployee equity awards is fixed on the grant date. This ASU becomes effective for the year ending December 31, 2020 (and interim periods in 2021) and early adoption is permitted but no earlier than an entity’s adoption date of Topic 606. Entities will apply the ASU by recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the annual period of adoption. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2018-07 will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Foreign Debt Obligations

Bressner Technology GmbH has three term loans outstanding as of June 30, 2020 with a total balance outstanding of €1,198,222 (US$1,346,159) as follows:

 

Bressner entered into a note payable in April 2019 in the amount of €500,000 (US$561,350) which bears interest at 2.25% and matures on March 31, 2021 with monthly payments of principal and interest of €22,232 (US$24,960).

Bressner entered into a note payable in September 2019 in the amount of €300,000 (US$336,810) which bore interest at 1.65.% and matured on March  24, 2020, with a balloon payment of principal and interest.  The outstanding balance was paid in full as of March 31, 2020.  At December 31, 2019, the outstanding balance was €301,650 (US$338,663).

Notes Payable

In April 2019, the Company borrowed $350,000 from three individuals for a two year period at an interest rate of 9.5% which requires the Company to make monthly principal and interest payments of $16,100 per month.  These loans are secured by the assets of the Company.  In connection with these loans, the Company issued to the noteholders warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock equal to 10% of the original principal at a price per share equal to $2.15 per share.  Accordingly, the Company issued to the noteholders warrants to purchase 16,276 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $2.15 per share. The relative fair value of each warrant was $0.90.  The relative fair value of warrants was estimated using Black-Scholes with the following weighted-average assumptions: fair value of the Company’s common stock at issuance of $2.15 per share; five year contractual term; 44.60% volatility; 0.0% dividend rate; and a risk-free interest rate of 2.307%.  The total relative fair value of the warrants issued is $14,037.  The balance outstanding as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 is $154,230 and $241,054, respectively.

Notes Payable – Related Parties

In April 2019, the Company borrowed $1,150,000 from three individuals who serve on the Company’s board of directors for a two year period at an interest rate of 9.5% which requires the Company to make monthly principal and interest payments of $52,900 per month.  These loans are secured by the assets of the Company.  In connection with these loans, the Company issued to the noteholders warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock equal to 10% of the original principal at a price per share equal to $2.15 per share.  Accordingly, the Company issued to the noteholders warrants to purchase 53,490 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $2.15 per share. The relative fair value of each warrant was $0.90.  The relative fair value of warrants was estimated using Black-Scholes with the following weighted-average assumptions: fair value of the Company’s common stock at issuance of $2.15 per share; five year contractual term; 42.60% volatility; 0.0% dividend rate; and a risk-free interest rate of 2.3067%.  The relative fair value of warrants issued is $46,121. The balance outstanding as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 is $505,851 and $791,170, respectively.

Debt Discount

 

The relative fair value of warrants were recorded as debt discount, decreasing notes payable and related-party notes payable and increasing additional paid-in-capital on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.  The debt discounts are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the corresponding notes payable using the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest method.

 

For the three month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, total debt discount amortization was $59,329 and $6,266, respectively, and such amounts are included in interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.  For the six month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, total debt discount amortization was $66,849 and $6,266 respectively, and such amounts are included in interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Paycheck Protect Plan Loan

On April 28, 2020, One Stop Systems, Inc. received authorization pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) as administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”) for a “PPP” loan. On May 11, 2020, the Loan was funded and the Company received proceeds in the amount of $1,499,360 (the “PPP Loan”).

The PPP Loan, which took the form of a two-year promissory note, matures on April 28, 2022 and bears interest at a rate of 1.0% per annum. Monthly principal and interest payments, less the amount of any potential forgiveness (discussed below), will commence on October 28, 2020. The Company did not provide any collateral or guarantees for the PPP Loan, nor did the Company pay any facility charge to obtain the PPP Loan. The Promissory Note provides for customary events of default, including, among others, those relating to failure to make payment, breaches of any term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in the Note and payment of unauthorized expenses or use of proceeds contrary to CARES Act rules. The Company may prepay the principal of the PPP Loan at any time without incurring any prepayment charges.

 

Under the original rules, all or a portion of the Loan may be forgiven by the SBA and lender upon application by the Company beginning 60 days but not later than 120 days after loan approval and upon documentation of expenditures in accordance with the SBA requirements. Under the CARES Act, loan forgiveness is available for the sum of documented payroll costs, covered rent payments, and covered utilities during the eight week period beginning on the date of loan approval. For purposes of the CARES Act, payroll costs exclude compensation of an individual employee in excess of $100,000, prorated annually. Not more than 25% of the forgiven amount may be for non-payroll costs. Forgiveness is reduced if full-time headcount declines, or if salaries and wages for employees with salaries of $100,000 or less annually are reduced by more than 25%. In the event the PPP Loan, or any portion thereof, is forgiven pursuant to the PPP, the amount forgiven is applied to outstanding principal.

 

However, the original rules governing loans granted under the PPP have been subsequently undated.  The time period to spend the received funds has been extended from the original eight weeks to twenty-four weeks.  Payroll is only required to be 60%, and the commencement date for the repayment has also been extended accordingly.

Senior Secured Convertible Note:

 

On April 20, 2020, the Company, entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an institutional investor, providing for the issuance of the Company’s Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes with a principal face amount of up to $6,000,000.   The notes are, subject to certain conditions, convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, at an initial conversion price per share of $2.50. The notes will be issued with a 10% original issue discount.

 

At the initial closing of this offering, the Company issued notes of $3,000,000, and can consummate additional closings of up to $3,000,000, subject to the prior satisfaction of certain closing conditions. The initial investor purchased the notes for an aggregate purchase price of $2,700,000 at the initial closing.  The notes bear no interest rate (except upon event of default) and, unless earlier converted or redeemed, will mature on April 1, 2022.

 

The Notes are convertible at any time, in whole or in part, at the option of the investors, into shares of common stock at the initial conversion price of $2.50 per share. The conversion price is subject to adjustment for issuances of securities below the conversion price then in effect and for stock splits, combinations or similar events. If immediately following the close of business on the six month anniversary of the issuance date of each note, the conversion price then in effect exceeds 135% of the volume weighted average price VWAP (the “Market Price”), the initial conversion price under any such note will be automatically lowered to the Market Price.

 

Commencing July 1, 2020, the Company will make monthly amortization payments equal to 1/22nd of the initial principal, any accrued and unpaid interest and late charges and any deferred or accelerated amount, of such note, which may be satisfied in cash at a redemption price equal to 105% of such installment amount (110% of such installment amount on notes issued at additional closings).

Subject to the satisfaction of certain equity conditions set forth in the notes, installment amounts may be satisfied in shares of our common stock, with such installment conversion at a conversion price equal to the lower of (i) the conversion price then in effect and (ii) the greater of (x) the floor price of $1.00 (80% of the Nasdaq market price at date of purchase agreement) and (y) the lower of (I) 82.5% the volume weighted average price of our common stock on the trading day immediately before the applicable installment date and (II) 82.5% of the lowest volume weighted average price in the 20 days prior to the installment date. Shares of our common stock to be issued with respect to any such installment will be pre-delivered on the 2nd trading day after the applicable installment notice date as defined in the notes) with a true-up on the applicable installment date. The market value of any installment amount below the floor price will be cash settled on the applicable installment date.  

 

Management evaluated the embedded conversion feature to determine whether bifurcation was required as a separate derivative liability.  Management first determined that the conversion feature was not within the scope of ASC 480. It then determined that the embedded derivative should be separated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative instrument because it met the criteria of ASC 815-15-25-1, primarily because the contract provides for delivery of an asset that puts the recipient in substantially the same position as net settlement.  However, in part due to the Company’s adoption of ASC 2017-11 on April 1, 2020, which allowed management to disregard the down round provisions of the conversion feature, management determined that a scope exception to derivative accounting existed by satisfying the additional conditions necessary for equity classification specified by ASC 815-10-15-74 and ASC 815-40-25.  As a result of management’s analysis, the conversion feature was not accounted for separately from the debt instrument and the Company will recognize the contingent beneficial conversion feature when, or if, such is triggered.   

The original issue discount of 10% on the Senior Secured Convertible Note was recorded as a debt discount, decreasing the note payable.  This debt discount is amortized to interest expense using the effective interest rate method over the term of the loan.  For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020, total debt discount amortization was $49,141 and such amount is included in interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

 

Debt issuance costs in the amount of $316,274 related to this indebtedness were capitalized as a debt issuance costs and deducted from the face value of the note.  Such costs are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest rate method over the term of the loan.  Total debt issuance costs amortized during the three and six month period ended June 30, 2020 was $51,806 and such amount is included in interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

As of June 30, 2020, the amount of unearned stock-based compensation estimated to be expensed from 2020 through 2029 related to unvested common stock options is $415,020, net of estimated forfeitures. The weighted-average period over which the unearned stock-based compensation is expected to be recognized is 2.58 years.

If there are any modifications or cancellations of the underlying unvested awards, the Company may be required to accelerate, increase or cancel any remaining unearned stock-based compensation expense or calculate and record additional expense.  Future stock-based compensation expense and unearned stock-based compensation will increase to the extent that the Company grants additional common stock options or other stock-based awards.

Restricted Stock Units

Restricted stock units may be granted at the discretion of the compensation committee of the Board of Directors under the Company’s 2017 Equity Incentive Plan that was adopted on October 10, 2017 (the “2017 Plan”) in connection with the hiring and retention of personnel and are subject to certain conditions.  Restricted stock units generally vest quarterly or semi-annually over a period of one to three years and are typically forfeited if employment is terminated before the restricted stock unit vest.  The compensation expense related to the restricted stock units is calculated as the fair value of the common stock on the grant date and is amortized to expense over the vesting period and is adjusted for estimated forfeitures.

NOTE 9 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal

 

From time to time the Company is subject to various legal claims and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business.  In the opinion of management, after consultation with legal counsel, the ultimate disposition of any such matters as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, will not have a materially adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company.

Guarantees and Indemnities

 

The Company has made certain indemnities, under which it may be required to make payments to an indemnified party, in relation to certain transactions.  The Company indemnifies its directors, officers, employees and agents to the maximum extent permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware.  In connection with its facility lease, the Company has indemnified its lessor for certain claims arising from the use of the facilities.  Also, in connection with its Credit Agreement (Note 8), the Company has agreed to indemnify its lender and others related to the use of the proceeds and other matters.  The duration of the indemnities varies, and in many cases is indefinite.  These indemnities do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make.  Historically, the Company has not been obligated to make any payments for these obligations and no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Leases

 

The Company leases its offices, manufacturing, and warehouse facility in San Diego County under a non-cancelable operating lease. Our corporate headquarters are in a leased space comprising approximately 29,342 square feet in Escondido, California under a lease that was renewed in August 2018 and expires in August 2024.  The Company also leases a 3,208 square foot facility in Salt Lake City, Utah that houses our Ion software development team. The Company is the lessee of a leased space comprising approximately 12,000 square feet located in Irvine, California with the lease expiring in March 2021.  Bressner Technology GmbH, leases space comprising 8,073 square feet on a month to month basis.

Customer Concentration

 

During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, approximately 21%, and 53% and 34%, and 44% of net sales represent customers which are each greater than 10% of our consolidated annual revenue.  As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, approximately 56% and 72%, respectively of net trade accounts receivables represent customer balances which are each greater than 10% of our consolidated trade accounts receivable balance.  

 

As a result of the recent worldwide economic impact attributable to the coronavirus, disguise, the Company’s largest customer, has been experiencing a slowdown in its business as the entertainment and media markets have been required to scale back or cancel large group gatherings and as a result the Company has implemented a modified payment plan for this customer for the collection of outstanding accounts receivables which are being paid as scheduled.

  

During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, approximately 47%, and 20% and 33%, and 29% of net purchases represent vendors/suppliers which are each greater than 10% of our consolidated purchases.

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

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and operating results together with our financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements based upon current beliefs, plans and expectations that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” or in other parts of this Quarterly Report.

Overview

OSS designs, manufactures and markets custom high speed computing systems for high performance computing (HPC) applications. These applications require ultra-fast processing power and the ability to quickly access and store ever-growing data sets.  Systems are built using the latest GPU (graphical processing unit) and solid-state flash (memory) technologies.  We are a niche provider of HPC custom servers, compute accelerators, and flash storage arrays.  We deliver this technology to customers through sale of equipment and software to customers.  

Concept Development Inc., (CDI) which was acquired on August 31, 2018, specializes in the design and manufacture of specialized high-performance in-flight entertainment systems for commercial aircraft.  CDI’s capabilities include electrical, mechanical and software design as well as extensive experience in test and certifications required for airborne systems.

Components of Results of Operations

Revenue

 

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the new accounting standard update ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which superseded nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under GAAP, to all contracts using the modified retrospective method.  For a more detailed description of our revenue recognition policies see the Company’s consolidated financial statements Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies for the years ended December 2019 and 2018 as included in our 2019 Form 10-K.

Cost of revenue

Cost of revenue primarily consists of costs of materials, costs paid to third-party contract manufacturers (which may include the costs of components), and personnel costs associated with manufacturing and support operations. Personnel costs consist of wages, bonuses, benefits, stock-based compensation expenses. Cost of revenue also includes freight, allocated overhead costs and inventory write-offs and changes to our inventory and warranty reserves. Allocated overhead costs consist of certain facilities and utility costs. We expect cost of revenue to increase in absolute dollars, as product revenue increases.

Operating expenses

Our operating expenses consist of general and administrative, sales and marketing and research and development expenses. Salaries and personnel-related costs, benefits, and stock-based compensation expense, are the most significant components of each category of operating expenses.

Revenue

For the three month period ended June 30, 2020, total revenue decreased $3,260,909 or 21.9%, as compared to the same period in 2019. The decrease was primarily driven by reduced revenue from OSS’ core media and entertainment business and data storage units of $3,088,973 or 20.8 percentage points of the decrease.  Bressner contributed an additional $336,155 or 2.3 percentage points increase for the quarter as compared to the prior year and CDI had a reduction in revenue of $508,091 or 3.4 percentage point decrease of the total reduction in revenue.    

For the six month period ended June 30, 2020, total revenue increased $40,829 or less than 1%, as compared to the same period in 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, OSS’s has experienced a reduction in revenue of approximately $4,100,000 from its two largest customers.  These decreases have been offset by new business opportunities associated with the Company’s AI on the fly products and as a result OSS experienced a net decrease in revenue for the period of $500,782 or approximately 2.0 percentage points.  Bressner contributed $727,210 or an increase of 2.9 percentage points and CDI had a decrease of $185,599 or 0.8 percentage points of the total increase in revenue.    

Cost of revenue and gross margin

Cost of revenue decreased $1,172,946 or 12.4%, for the three month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019. The decrease in cost of revenue was primarily driven by cost of revenue from OSS’ core business which had a reduction of $1,128,236 or 11.9 percentage points of the decrease as a result of the reduction in media and entertainment sales and sales of data storage units.  Bressner contributed an increase of $454,785 or 4.8 percentage points and CDI had a reduction in costs of $499,495 or 5.3 percentage points of the total decrease in cost of revenue.    

Cost of revenue increased by $1,144,728 or 6.7%, for the six month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019. The increase in cost of revenue was primarily driven by cost of revenue from OSS’ lower margin products which contributed $764,611 or 4.5 percentage points of the increase.  Bressner contributed $726,181 or 4.2 percentage points on increased revenues.  CDI experienced a reduction in costs of $346,064 or 2.0 percentage points as a result of cost reduction measures.      

The overall gross margin percentage decreased from 36.4% for the three month period ended June 30, 2019 to 28.6% for the three month period ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of 7.8 percentage points.  The gross margin for the core OSS business for the three month period ended June 30, 2020 was 33.7%, which was 9.2 percentage points less in comparison to the prior year period of 42.9% attributable to the lack of sales of data storage units to military end-users.  CDI’s gross margin improved from 19.8% to 43.5% as a result of significant cost containment efforts in the current quarter.  Bressner contributed gross margin at a rate of 19.0% as compared to 23.6% in the same year ago period due to change in product mix.  

The overall gross margin percentage decreased from 31.4% for the six month period ended June 30, 2019 to 26.9% for the three month period ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of 4.5 percentage points.  The gross margin for the core OSS business for the six month period ended June 30, 2020 was 30.7%, which was 7.3 percentage points less in comparison to the prior year period of 38.0%.  The majority of the decline is attributable to the reduction of sales of data storage units (DSU) to military end users in the second quarter as compared to the prior year.  Military grade DSUs tend to command higher margins as compared to other products.  CDI improved margin from 10.9% to 28.9% as a result of cost reduction efforts.  Bressner contributed gross margin at a rate of 20.5% as compared to 22.3% in the same year ago period.  

Operating expenses

General and administrative expense

General and administrative expense decreased $2,054,120 or 52.3%, for the three month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to same period in 2019.  The decrease is primarily driven by an impairment charge of $1,697,394 that was recognized in the prior year due to a write down in goodwill at CDI.  In addition, there were costs savings attributable to a cost reduction initiative that took effect in April 2020, in which the workforce was reduced and cost containment efforts were implemented.  Overall general and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of revenue to 16.1% during the three month periods ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 26.4% during the same period in 2019.

30


General and administrative expense decreased $1,583,990 or 26.5 %, for the six month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to same period in 2019.  The decrease is primarily driven by an impairment charge of $1,697,394 that was recognized in the prior year due to a write down in goodwill at CDI.  In addition, there were costs savings attributable to a cost reduction initiative that took effect in April 2020, in which the workforce was reduced and cost containment efforts were implemented.  These cost savings were more than offset by accruals for severance benefits attributable to the termination of our former president and chief executive officer.  Overall general and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of revenue to 17.6% during the six month periods ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 24.0% during the same period in 2019.

Marketing and selling expense

Marketing and selling expense decreased $391,905 or 31.7% during the three month periods ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019.  The decreases in marketing and selling expenses is primarily attributable to a cost reduction initiative that took effect in April 2020, in which the workforce was reduced and cost containment efforts were implemented. Additionally, as a result of COVID-19 there has been a reduction in travel and tradeshows.  Marketing and selling expense decreased as a percentage of revenue to 7.3% during the three month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 8.3% during the same period in 2019.

Marketing and selling expense decreased $340,487 or 14.3% during the six month periods ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019.  The decreases in marketing and selling expenses is primarily attributable to a cost reduction initiative that took effect in April 2020, in which the workforce was reduced and cost containment efforts were implemented.

Research and development expense

Research and development expense decreased by $216,532 or 17.7% during the three month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to same period in 2019.  The majority of the decrease is primarily attributable to a cost reduction initiative that took effect in April 2020, in which the workforce was reduced and cost containment efforts were implemented.  Overall, total research and development expense increased as a percentage of revenue to 8.7% during the three month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 8.2% during the same period in 2019 primarily because of the calculation based upon a smaller revenue number.

Research and development expense decreased by $275,071 or 11.0% during the six month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to same period in 2019.  The majority of the decrease is primarily attributable to a cost reduction initiative that took effect in April 2020, in which the workforce was reduced and cost containment efforts were implemented.  These reductions were offset by increases at Bressner of $143,364 and CDI of $55,057 attributable to on-going projects.  Overall, total research and development expense decreased as a percentage of revenue to 8.9% during the six month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 10.0% during the same period in 2019.

Interest income

Interest income increased $89,175 for the three month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to same period in 2019.  The increase is attributable to increased finance charges on outstanding accounts receivable balances from our largest customer in the media and entertainment industry.

Other income (expense), net

Other income (expense), for the three month period ended June 30, 2020 resulted in a net increase in other income and expense of $16,292 and compared to the same period in 2019, attributable to foreign currency translation re-measurements gains and losses.  

Other income (expense), for the six month period ended June 30, 2020 resulted in a net decrease in other income and expense of $19,534 and compared to the same period in 2019, attributable to foreign currency translation re-measurements gains and losses.  

Provision for income taxes / Income tax benefits

We have recorded an income tax (benefit) provision of $(441,511) and $558,072, respectively, for the three month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, and $(908,809) and $(543,839), respectively, for the six month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.  The 2020 benefit is attributable to projected annual taxable income for 2020 with a projected tax rate of 33.9% as compared to the prior year of 49.7%.  The projected effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 differs from the statutory rate mainly due to permanent non-deductible goodwill amortization for Bressner Technology GmbH, income from the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income inclusion, as well as projecting federal, foreign and state tax liabilities for the year.

In determining the periodic income tax expense, GAAP requires the Company to forecast its annual effective income tax rate (“AETR”) for the years December 31, 2020 and 2019.  Based on management’s projections, the Company expects income tax benefits related to research and development credits and equity compensation benefits to exceed our pretax earnings in 2020 and 2019.

Liquidity and capital resources

 

Given our recent operating losses, the Company’s primary sources of liquidity have been provided by (i) the Company’s February 2018 initial public offering (net proceeds were approximately $16,100,000), (ii) March 2019 notes payable from members of the Board of Directors and others of $1,500,000, (iii) the June 2019 sale of 1,554,832 shares of the Company’s common stock for net cash proceeds of $2,488,148, (iv) the April 24, 2020 sale of $3,000,000 of Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes issued at a 10% original issue discount and (v) receipt of approximately $1,500,000 on April 28, 2020 of government loan proceeds under the Payroll Protection Program.

 

As of June 30, 2020, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were $4,654,602 and working capital of $14,381,656.  Cash and cash equivalents held by Bressner totaled $677,715 (USD) at June 30, 2020, and Bressner’s debt covenants do not permit the use of those funds by its parent company. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company experienced an operating loss of $1,917,040 with cash used in operating activities of $2,935,059. Our largest customer who is engaged in the media and entertainment industry is having significant financial hardships attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic and as a result has been slow in paying its outstanding

32


accounts receivables. The Company has formulated a plan whereby extended payment terms have been made available, and our customer is presently honoring those terms.

The Company’s revenue growth, inclusive of two acquisitions made in 2018, has resulted in growth of the Company as a whole, but has been offset by increased spending in all areas of operating expenses:  general and administrative, marketing and selling, and research and development.

 

The coronavirus, or COVID-19, which has been declared by the World Health Organization to be a “public health emergency of international concern,” has spread across the globe and is impacting worldwide economic activity. A public health pandemic, including COVID-19, poses the risk that we or our employees, contractors, suppliers, and other partners may be prevented from conducting business activities for an indefinite period of time, including due to shutdowns that may be requested or mandated by governmental authorities.

 

More generally, COVID-19 raises the possibility of an extended global economic downturn, which could affect demand for our products and services and impact our results and financial condition even after the pandemic is contained and remediation/restriction measures are lifted. For example, we may be unable to collect receivables from customers that are significantly impacted by COVID-19. Also, a decrease in orders in a given period could negatively affect our revenues in future periods. COVID-19 may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, including risks associated with our customers and supply chain. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of the impact of COVID-19 to our business.

 

At present, it is clear the global economy has been negatively impacted by COVID-19, and demand for some of our products and services have been reduced due to uncertainty and the economic impact of COVID-19. For example, customers in certain of the industries most impacted by COVID-19, have requested, and we expect will continue to request, relief to existing contracts or payment obligations, and the impact of those is uncertain. For example, some customers are delaying payments owed to the Company while they address immediate financial crises in their operations due to COVID-19. In particular, in the media and entertainment industry, demand for the use of outdoor media equipment has been impacted due to restrictions on public gatherings. Until such restrictions improve, we expect that demand for certain of our clients’ products and services will be limited, and thus, may impact our financial results and operations.

 

Specifically, our business has also begun to be negatively affected by a range of external factors related to COVID-19 that are not within our control. For example, numerous measures have been implemented by governmental authorities across the globe to contain the virus, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, restrictions and limitations of public gatherings, and business limitations and shutdowns. Many of our customers’ businesses have been severely impacted by these measures and some have been required to reduce employee headcount as a result. If a significant number of our customers are unable to continue as a going concern, this would have an adverse impact on our business and financial condition. In addition, many of our customers are working remotely, which may delay the timing of new business and implementations of our services. If COVID-19 continues to have a substantial impact on our partners, customers, or suppliers, our results of operations and overall financial performance will be harmed.

Though management has been proactively managing through the current known impacts, if the situation further deteriorates or the outbreak results in further restriction on both supply and demand factors, our cash flows, financial position and operating results for fiscal year 2020 and beyond will be negatively impacted. Neither the length of time nor the magnitude of the negative impacts can be presently determined.

The longer the COVID-19 pandemic persists, the greater the potential for significant adverse impact to our business operations.   Quarantines, travel restrictions, prohibitions on non-essential gatherings, shelter-in-place orders and other similar directives and policies intended to reduce the spread of the disease, may reduce our productivity and that of the third parties on which we rely and may disrupt and delay many aspects of our business. .

33


We have not developed a specific and comprehensive contingency plan designed to address the challenges and risks presented by the COVID-19 pandemic and, even if and when we do develop such a plan, there can be no assurance that such plan will be effective in mitigating the potential adverse effects on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Management’s plans with respect to the above is to continue its efforts towards responding to the changing economic landscape attributable to COVID-19, to restructure the Company with the primary objectives of reducing costs, conserving cash, strengthening margins, and improving company-wide execution.  Specific actions already implemented by management include a reduction in force, a freeze on hiring, reduced work week, minimizing overtime, travel and entertainment, and contractor costs.  On April 7, 2020, the Company implemented a cost reduction plan which included the termination of certain employees and elimination of certain costs.  Estimated savings from this effort are expected to be $2.5 to $3.0 million for the year ending 2020.

While management expects these actions to result in prospective cost reductions, management is also committed to securing debt and/or equity financing to ensure that liquidity will be sufficient to meet the Company’s cash requirements through at least a period of the next twelve months. Management believes potential sources of liquidity include at least the following:

 

 

In March 2019, the Company received funding commitments in the amount of $4,000,000 from members of the Board of Directors, of which $1,500,000 has been drawn through December 31, 2019. As of April 1, 2020, the remaining unfunded commits expired.

 

 

In May 2019, the Company filed a Form S-3 prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Commission which became effective on June 19, 2019, and allows the Company to offer up to $100,000,000 aggregate dollar amount of shares of its common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants to purchase its common stock, preferred stock or debt securities, subscription rights to purchase its common stock, preferred stock or debt securities and\or units consisting of some or all of these securities, in any combination, together or separately, in one of more offerings, in amounts, at prices and on the terms that the Company will determine at the time of the offering and which will be set forth in a prospectus supplement and any related free writing prospectus.  

 

 

On April 24, 2020, the Company consummated the initial closing of the offering (the “Initial Closing”) under the Purchase Agreement and issued a Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note with an aggregate of $3,000,000 to an institutional investor (“Initial Note”). The investors purchased the Initial Note for an aggregate purchase price of $2,700,000, at the Initial Closing after a 10% original issue discount.  The Initial Note bears no interest rate (except upon event of default) and, unless earlier converted or redeemed, will mature on the date that is the twenty-three (23) month anniversary of the last day from the Initial Closing in either cash or shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

On April 28, 2020, the Company received a Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan in the amount of $1,499,360.  Management believes that most of the loan, if not all, will likely be forgiven.

As a result of management’s cost reduction plans, the Company’s potential sources of liquidity and management’s most recent cash flow forecasts, management believes that the Company has sufficient liquidity to satisfy its anticipated cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. However, there can be no assurance that management’s cost reduction efforts will be effective, the forecasted cash flows will be achieved, or that external sources of financing, including the issuance of debt and/or equity securities, will be available at times and on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all.  

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:

Operating Activities

During the six month period ended June 30, 2020, the Company used $2,935,059 in cash from operating activities, a $4,648,943 net change in cash when compared to the cash provided by operating activities of $1,713,884 during the same period in 2019. The increase in cash used in operating activities was primarily a result of reductions in net sources of working capital of $3,759,437 which contributed to the increase in the use of cash.  This use of working capital was offset by a reduction in the net loss of $1,431,169 as compared to the same period in the prior year, which improvement was offset by a decrease in the add-back for non-cash items of $2,320,675.

 

In comparison to the prior year, non-cash adjustments which are added back to the net loss generated during a period decreased to $406,785 for the six month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $2,727,460 for the same period in 2019, a decrease of $2,320,675.  This decrease in non-cash adjustments consists of increases of $426,436 comprised of gain on disposal of property and equipment, depreciation, inventory reserves and debt discount.  These increases were offset by $2,747,111 in decreases in non-cash adjustments attributable to deferred benefit for income taxes, unrealized gain of foreign currency transactions, provision for bad debt, impairment of goodwill, warranty reserves, amortization of deferred gain, amortization of intangibles, and stock-based compensation expense.

 

Cash generated by changes in working capital accounts as compared to the prior year decrease overall by $3,759,437.  During the six month period ended June 30, 2020 cash used for working capital requirements increased $2,233,650 as compared to cash generated from changes in working capital of $1,525,787 in the same year ago period.

 

Our ability to generate cash from operations in future periods will depend in large part on our profitability, the rate and timing of collections of our accounts receivable, our inventory turns and our ability to manage other areas of working capital including accounts payable.

Investing Activities

During the six month period ended June 30, 2020, the Company used cash of $414,040 in investing activities as compared to $1,355,925 used during the same period in 2019, a decrease of $941,885.  In the prior reporting period, the Company was expanding and remodeling its facility for increased capacity.  Such costs were not incurred in the current period.  Additionally, in the prior year, the Company was implementing phase I of its ERP system which included a team of external resources for which the costs were capitalized.  Though phase II is currently in process, the implementation team is significantly smaller and as a result we are not incurring comparable costs.  We do not anticipate any other significant purchases of equipment beyond that which is anticipated for use in the normal course of our core business activity.  

Financing Activities

During the six month period ended June 30, 2020, the Company generated net, $2,817,718 in financing activities as compared to the cash generated of $2,323,170 during the same period in 2019.  During the six month period ended June 30, 2020, in addition to payments on term loans and outstanding lines of credit, the Company received proceeds of $64,467 through the exercise of stock options which was offset by a payment for taxes of $670,599 that were paid on behalf of those that exercised options and RSU’s on a net cashless basis.  Additionally, during April of 2020, the Company closed on a $3,000,000, 10% original issue discount, senior secured convertible debt offering which resulted in net proceeds after the payment of discount and professional fees of $2,383,726.

On April 28, 2020, the Company received a two year Paycheck Protection Plan loan in the amount of $1,499,360. Management believes that most of the loan, if not all, will likely be forgiven.

During the six month period ended June 30, 2019, the Company raised $1,500,000 from individuals and related parties through the issuance of notes payable that bear interest at an annual rate of 9.5% and are repaid through 24 months monthly installments.  Bressner increased borrowing under its lines of credit for the purchase of inventories and also borrowed funds through term loans at interest rates of 2.125% - 2.150% that are repaid through monthly installments of up to 24 months.  The Company received proceeds of $21,149 for the exercise of warrants and stock options.  

35


Off balance sheet arrangements

Other than lease commitments incurred in the normal course of business and certain indemnification provisions, we do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or liabilities, guarantee contracts, retained or contingent interests in transferred assets, or any obligation arising out of a material variable interest in an unconsolidated entity.

 

We do not have any majority-owned subsidiaries that are not consolidated in the financial statements. Additionally, we do not have an interest in, or relationships with, any special purpose entities.

Stockholder transactions

In April 2019, certain members of the Company’s Board of Directors executed definitive agreements to commit funds of up to $4,000,000 as a credit facility. The Company initially borrowed $1,150,000 from members of the Board of Directors and $350,000 from other shareholders for a two year period at an interest rate of 9.5% which requires the Company to make monthly principal and interest payment of $69,000 per month. In connection with these loans, the Company issued the note holders warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock equal to 10% of the original principal at a price per share equal to $2.15 per share.  Accordingly, the Company issued to the note holders warrants to purchase 69,766 shares of the Company’s common stock.  The relative fair value of the warrants issued was $60,158.  The remaining unfunded loan commitments expired as of April 1, 2020.

Critical accounting policies and estimates

 

In preparing our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, management must make a variety of decisions which impact the reported amounts and the related disclosures. These decisions include the selection of the appropriate accounting principles to be applied and the assumptions on which to base accounting estimates. In making these decisions, management applies its judgment based on its understanding and analysis of the relevant circumstances and our historical experience.

 

Our accounting policies and estimates that are most critical to the presentation of our results of operations and financial condition, and which require the greatest use of judgments and estimates by management, are designated as our critical accounting policies. See further discussion of our critical accounting policies under Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our year ended December 31, 2019. We periodically re-evaluate and adjust our critical accounting policies as circumstances change. There were no significant changes in our critical accounting policies during the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Recently implemented accounting pronouncements

Per the Company’s consolidated financial statements Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies, we have implemented a number of changes, as required by FASB.  See Note 2 of the accompanying financial statements for further details.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Per the Company’s consolidated financial statements Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies, we may be implementing a number of changes, as required by FASB.  See Note 2 of the accompanying financial statements or further details.

Interest rate risk

Our exposure to interest rate risk is primarily associated with borrowing on revolving lines of credit denominated in both U.S. dollars and Euros.  We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through our borrowing activities for our variable rate borrowings.

36


Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially expose us to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents and accounts receivable. We place our cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions with high credit quality. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had $4,654,602 and $5,185,321, respectively, of cash and cash equivalents on deposit or invested with our financial and lending institutions. We provide credit to our customers in the normal course of business. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition and limit the amount of credit extended when deemed necessary.

 

Customer Concentration

The Company’s largest customer is in the media and entertainment industry which has been adversely affected by the COVID pandemic as a result of the guidelines limiting non-essential public gatherings.  As a result, sales to this customer have slowed and the collection cycle of accounts receivable has protracted and been limited by their available cash flow.  The Company has made arrangement for the payment of receives over an extended period of time.

Foreign currency risk

We operate primarily in the United States.  Foreign sales of products and services are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars.  We also conduct business outside the United States through our foreign subsidiary in Germany, where business is largely transacted in non-U.S. dollar currencies particularly the Euro, which is subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.   Accordingly, we are subject to exposure from changes in the exchange rates of local currencies. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are recorded in other income (expense), net in the consolidated statements of operations.

OSS GmbH operates as an extension of OSS’ domestic operations and acquired Bressner Technology GmbH in October 2018.  The functional currency of OSS GmbH is the Euro. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are remeasured to the functional currency at the average exchange rate in effect during the period.  At the end of each reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities are translated using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at historical exchange rates. Consequently, changes in the exchange rates of the currencies may impact the translation of the foreign subsidiaries’ statements of operations into U.S. dollars, which may in turn affect our consolidated statement of operations. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Derivative Financial Instruments

We employ derivatives on a periodic basis to manage certain market risks through the use of foreign exchange forward contracts. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Our derivatives are designated as a hedge of a forecasted transaction or of the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability (cash flow hedge). We hedge a portion of the exchange risk involved in anticipation of highly probable foreign currency-denominated transactions. In anticipation of these transactions, we may enter into foreign exchange contracts to provide currency at a fixed rate.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA

We believe that the use of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or adjusted EBITDA, is helpful for an investor to assess the performance of the Company.  The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as income (loss) attributable to common stockholders before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, acquisition expenses, impairment of long-lived assets, financing costs, fair value adjustments from purchase accounting, stock-based compensation expense and expenses related to discontinued operations.

37


Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP. Because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of equity instruments that can impact a company’s non-cash operating expenses, we believe that providing a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes non-cash and non-recurring expenses allows for meaningful comparisons between our core business operating results and those of other companies, as well as providing us with an important tool for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating our own core business operating results over different periods of time.

Our adjusted EBITDA measure may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in our industry, as other companies in our industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently, particularly related to non-recurring, unusual items. Our adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income or as an indication of operating performance or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. We do not consider adjusted EBITDA to be a substitute for, or superior to, the information provided by GAAP financial results.

Adjusted EPS

Adjusted EPS excludes the impact of certain items and, therefore, has not been calculated in accordance with GAAP. We believe that exclusion of certain selected items assists in providing a more complete understanding of our underlying results and trends and allows for comparability with our peer company index and industry. We use this measure along with the corresponding GAAP financial measures to manage our business and to evaluate our performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace. The Company defines Non-GAAP (loss) income attributable to common stockholders as (loss) or income before amortization, stock-based compensation, expenses related to discontinued operations, impairment of long-lived assets and non-recurring acquisition costs.  Adjusted EPS expresses adjusted (loss) income on a per share basis using weighted average diluted shares outstanding.

Adjusted EPS is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. We expect to continue to incur expenses similar to the adjusted income from continuing operations and adjusted EPS financial adjustments described above, and investors should not infer from our presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures that these costs are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring.

Free Cash Flow

 

Free cash flow, a non-GAAP measure for reporting cash flow, is defined as cash provided by or used in operating activities less capital expenditures for property and equipment, which includes capitalized software development costs for the implementation of the Company’s ERP system. We believe free cash flow provides investors with an important perspective on cash available for investments and acquisitions after making capital investments required to support ongoing business operations and long-term value creation.   We believe that trends in our free cash flow can be valuable indicators of our operating performance and liquidity.

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP financial measure may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies.

We expect to continue to incur expenditures similar to the free cash flow adjustments described above, and investors should not infer from our presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure that these expenditures reflect all of our obligations which require cash.  The following table reconciles cash provided by or used in operating activities, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, to free cash flow:

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Not Applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic and current reports that we file with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Limitation on Effectiveness of Controls

The design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals. The inherent limitations in any control system include the realities that judgments related to decision-making can be faulty, and that reduced effectiveness in controls can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Due to the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error may occur and may not be detected.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management is required to evaluate our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on our management’s evaluation (with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer), our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, which were identified in connection with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

40


PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are subject to litigation, claims, investigations and audits arising from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. However, at this time, we are not aware of any pending, threatened, or unasserted claims.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

Please carefully consider the information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item I A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, which  could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. In evaluating our business, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as updated by our subsequent filings under the Exchange Act. The occurrence of any of the risks discussed in such filings, or other events that we do not currently anticipate or that we currently deem immaterial, could harm our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

 

We must successfully navigate the demand, supply and operational challenges associated with the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

 

Our business has begun to be negatively affected by a range of external factors related to COVID-19 that are not within our control. For example, numerous measures have been implemented by governmental authorities across the globe to contain the virus, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, restrictions and limitations of public gatherings, and business limitations and shutdowns. Many of our customers’ businesses have been severely impacted by these measures and some have been required to reduce employee headcount as a result. If a significant number of our customers are unable to continue as a going concern, this would have an adverse impact on our business and financial condition. In addition, many of our customers are working remotely, which may delay the timing of new business and implementations of our services. If COVID-19 continues to have a substantial impact on our partners, customers, or suppliers, our results of operations and overall financial performance will be harmed.

 

The impacts of COVID-19 on our business, customers, partners, suppliers, employees, markets and financial results and condition are uncertain, evolving and dependent on numerous unpredictable factors outside of our control, including:

 

 

the spread, duration and severity of COVID-19 as a public health matter and its impact on governments, businesses and society generally and our clients, partners, suppliers and our business more specifically;

 

the measures being taken by governments, businesses and society in response to COVID-19 and the effectiveness of those measures, including our suppliers in China experiencing delays due to the Chinese government’s response to COVID-19;

 

the scope and effectiveness of fiscal and monetary stimulus programs and other legislative and regulatory measures being implemented by federal, state and local governments in response to COVID-19;

 

the duration and impact of the numerous measures implemented by governmental authorities throughout the country to contain COVID-19, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, restrictions and limitations on public gatherings, and business limitations and shutdowns;

 

the increase in business failures or slowdowns among our customers, suppliers, and other businesses;

the pace and extent to which our customers and other businesses are able to operate and/or reduce their number of employees and other compensated individual; the willingness of current and prospective clients to invest in our products and services;

 

the satisfaction of customers with product and service remote delivery and support

41


 

If we are not able to respond to and manage the impact of such events effectively, our business will be harmed.

 

At present, it is clear the global economy has been negatively impacted by COVID-19, and demand for some of our products and services have been reduced due to uncertainty and the economic impact of COVID-19. For example, customers in certain of the industries most impacted by COVID-19, have requested, and we expect will continue to request, relief to existing contracts or payment obligations, and the impact of those is uncertain. For example, some customers are delaying payments owed to the Company while they address immediate financial crises in their operations due to COVID-19. In particular, in the media and entertainment industry, demand for the use of outdoor media equipment has been impacted due to restrictions on public gatherings. Until such restrictions improve, we expect that demand for certain of our clients’ products and services will be limited, and thus, may impact our financial results and operations.

 

More generally, COVID-19 raises the possibility of an extended global economic downturn, which could affect demand for our products and services and impact our results and financial condition even after the pandemic is contained and remediation/restriction measures are lifted. For example, we may be unable to collect receivables from customers that are significantly impacted by COVID-19. Also, a decrease in orders in a given period could negatively affect our revenues in future periods. COVID-19 may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, including risks associated with our customers and supply chain.  We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of the impact of COVID-19 to our business.
