SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

AND OTHER INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS REPORT

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and the provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements give our current expectations or forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. You can find many (but not all) of these statements by looking for words such as “approximates,” “believes,” “hopes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “may,” or other similar expressions in this Form 10-Q. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions; prospective products, applications, customers and technologies; future performance or results of anticipated products; anticipated expenses; and projected financial results. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to:

 

  our ability to successfully integrate acquired businesses or new products, or to realize anticipated synergies in connection with acquisition of the new businesses line;
     
  the effect of COVID-19, closure of offices and site location; on our ability to service our customers resulting in less revenues; 

 

  our limited cash and our history of losses;

 

  our ability to achieve profitability;

 

  customer demand for solutions we offer;

 

  the impact of competitive or alternative products, technologies, and pricing;

 

  our ability to resell products without terms, without wholesale suppliers, on a prepay basis;

 

  general economic conditions and events and the impact they may have on us, on our customers and on our potential customers;

 

ii

 

 

  our ability to obtain adequate financing in the future;

 

  our ability to continue as a going concern;

 

  our ability to complete strategic transactions, which may include acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments;

 

  lawsuits and other claims by third parties;
     
  ●  our success at managing the risks involved in the foregoing items; and
     
  ●  other factors discussed in this Form 10-Q.

 

We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in the forward-looking statements we make. We have included important factors in the cautionary statements included in this Form 10-Q, particularly in the “Risk Factors” section, that we believe could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements that we make. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments we may make or collaborations or strategic partnerships we may enter into.

 

You should read this Form 10-Q and the documents that we have filed as exhibits to this Form 10-Q completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

 

Unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, the terms “Sysorex,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company” refer collectively to Sysorex, Inc. and its subsidiaries – Sysorex Government Services, Inc. (“SGS”) and TTM Digital Assets & Technologies, Inc. (“TTM”).

Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

 

In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company for the interim periods presented.

SYSOREX, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2021 AND 2020

 

Note 1 — Description of Business, the Spin-Off and Going Concern and Management’s Plans

 

Description of Business

 

Sysorex, Inc., through its wholly owned subsidiary, Sysorex Government Services, Inc., formerly known as (f/k/a) Inpixon Federal, Inc. (“SGS”), (unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, the terms “SGS” “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refer collectively to Sysorex, Inc. and SGS), provides information technology solutions primarily to the public sector. These solutions include cybersecurity, professional services, engineering support, IT consulting, enterprise level technology, networking, wireless, help desk, and custom IT solutions. The Company is headquartered in Virginia.  

 

Going Concern and Management’s Plans

 

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had a working capital deficit of approximately $12.8 million. In addition, the Company has a stockholders’ deficit of approximately $25.0 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred net losses of approximately $1.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively. The aforementioned factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset amounts or the classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued.

 

The Company does not believe that its capital resources as of March 31, 2021, availability on the SouthStar facility to finance purchase orders and invoices, funds from financing from our related party note (as defined in Note 8 below) and other short-term borrowings, higher margin public sector contracts capture, reauthorization of key vendors and credit limitation improvements will be sufficient to fund planned operations during the year ending December 31, 2021. As a result, the Company will need additional funds to support its obligations for the next twelve months from the date these financial statements are made available. The Company is exploring a number of possible solutions to its financing needs, including efforts to raise additional capital as needed, through the issuance of equity, equity-linked or debt securities, as well as possible transactions with other companies, strategic partnerships, and other mechanisms for addressing our financial condition. Management’s plans and assessment of the probability that such plans will mitigate and alleviate any substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, is dependent upon the ability to attain funding to secure additional resources to generate sufficient revenues and increased margin, which without these represent the principal conditions that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

  

On April 14, 2021, Sysorex consummated a reverse triangular merger (“Merger”) with TTM Digital Assets & Technologies, Inc. (“TTM”), a data center owner and operator and now, the largest U.S. publicly traded Ethereum mining company based in the United States with operations in New York and North Carolina. In connection with the Merger, the shareholders of TTM exchanged 100% of TTM’s share capital for 124,218,268 shares of Sysorex common stock, which represented approximately 82% of the total share capital of Sysorex. As a closing condition to the Merger, a significant portion of the Company’s existing debtholders, creditors and service providers agreed to convert or exchange their outstanding indebtedness or accounts payable, as applicable, eliminating at least $13,500,000 of Sysorex debt, substantially improving Sysorex’s balance sheet and significantly increasing Sysorex shareholders’ equity. See Note 8 – Subsequent Events, regarding merger and discussion of conversion of debt to equity.

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2021 do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.   

 

Impact of COVID 19

 

The outbreak of the novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, which causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), has evolved into a global pandemic. COVID -19 has spread to many regions of the world, including the United States. In response to the pandemic, the Company has implemented a work from home policy, with all employees continuing their work outside of the Company’s office. COVID-19 is causing disruption and curtailment of our product offering and services due to our customers, predominantly the Federal and local governments have closed offices and field locations.

 

The Company is maintaining its overall headcount but continues to identify potential reductions in cash flows for operating expenses and other purchases to the extent possible. On May 3, 2020, the Company received a loan of $349,693 under the Payroll Protection Program as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act. While the Company expects some degree of an adverse impact on revenues in the second quarter of 2021, the Company will need to implement its plan as discussed above in Going Concern and Management’s Plans. See Note 8 - Subsequent events-regarding forgiveness of the $349,693 loan.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2021 AND 2020

 

Note 2 — Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, which are the accounting principles that are generally accepted in the United States of America. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of the Company’s operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with SEC on March 29, 2021.

 

Note 3 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accounting records of Sysorex and SGS. All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during each of the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s significant estimates consist of:

 

  the allowance for doubtful accounts;
     
  the valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset; and
     
  the impairment of long-lived assets.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company reports revenues under ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and all the related amendments (Topic 606)

 

The Company recognizes revenue after applying the following five steps:

 

1)identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;

 

2)identification of the performance obligations in the contract, including whether they are distinct within the context of the contract;

 

3)determination of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration;

 

4)allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

 

5)recognition of revenue when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied.

  

Hardware and Software Revenue Recognition

 

The Company is a primary resale channel for a large group of vendors and suppliers, including original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), software publishers and wholesale distributors.

 

The Company accounts for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are established, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. The Company evaluates the following indicators amongst others when determining whether it is acting as a principal in the transaction and recording revenue on a gross basis: (i) the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified product or service, (ii) the Company has inventory risk before the specified good or service has been transferred to a customer or after transfer of control to the customer and (iii) the Company has discretion in establishing the price for the specified good or service. If the terms of a transaction do not indicate the Company is acting as a principal in the transaction, then the Company is acting as an agent in the transaction and the associated revenues are recognized on a net basis.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2021 AND 2020

 

Note 3 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

 

The Company recognizes revenue once control has passed to the customer. The following indicators are evaluated in determining when control has passed to the customer: (i) the Company has a right to payment for the product or service, (ii) the customer has legal title to the product, (iii) the Company has transferred physical possession of the product to the customer, (iv) the customer has the significant risk and rewards of ownership of the product and (v) the customer has accepted the product. The Company’s products can be delivered to customers in a variety of ways, including (i) as physical product shipped from the Company’s warehouse, (ii) via drop-shipment by the vendor or supplier or (iii) via electronic delivery of keys for software licenses. The Company’s shipping terms typically specify F.O.B. destination.

 

The Company leverages drop-shipment arrangements with many of its vendors and suppliers to deliver products to its customers without having to physically hold the inventory at its warehouse. The Company is the principal in the transaction and recognizes revenue for drop-shipment arrangements on a gross basis.

 

The Company may provide integration of products from multiple vendors as a solution it sells to the customer. In this arrangement, the Company provides direct warranty to the customer with the Company’s own personnel as the customer requires warranty on the solution and not individual vendor products. This type of warranty is sold integral to the overall solution quoted to the customer. The Company considers these service-type warranties to be performance obligations of the principal from the underlying products that make up a solution and therefore is acting as a principal in the transaction and records revenue on a gross basis at the point of sale.

 

License and Maintenance Services Revenue Recognition

 

The Company provides a customized design and configuration solution for its customers and in this capacity resells hardware, software and other IT equipment license and maintenance services in exchange for fixed fees. The Company selects the vendors and sells the products and services, including maintenance services, that best fit the customer’s needs. For sales of maintenance services and warranties, the customer obtains control at the point in time that the services to be provided by a third-party vendor are purchased by the customer and therefore the Company’s performance obligation to provide the overall systems solution is satisfied at that time. The Company’s customers generally pay within 30 to 60 days from the receipt of a customer-approved invoice.

 

For resale of services, including maintenance services, warranties, and extended warranties, the Company is acting as an agent as the primary activity for those services are fulfilled by a third party. While the Company may facilitate and act as a first responder for these services, the third-party service providers perform the primary maintenance and warranty services for the customer. Therefore, the Company is not primarily responsible for performing these services and revenue is recorded on a net basis.

 

Professional Services Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s professional services include fixed fee and time and materials contracts. Fixed fees are paid monthly, in phases, or upon acceptance of deliverables. The Company’s time and materials contracts are paid weekly or monthly based on hours worked. Revenue on time and material contracts is recognized based on a fixed hourly rate as direct labor hours are expended. Materials, or other specified direct costs, are reimbursed as actual costs and may include markup. The Company has elected the practical expedient to recognize revenue for the right to invoice because the Company’s right to consideration corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the performance completed to date. For fixed fee contracts, the Company recognizes revenue evenly over the service period using a time-based measure because the Company is providing continuous service. Because the Company’s contracts have an expected duration of one year or less, the Company has elected the practical expedient in ASC 606-10-50-14(a) to not disclose information about its remaining performance obligations. Anticipated losses are recognized as soon as they become known. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company did not incur any such losses. These amounts are based on known and estimated factors. Revenues from time and material or firm fixed price long-term and short-term contracts are derived principally with various United States government agencies.

Note 3 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

 

Emerging Growth Company

 

Sysorex is an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act. As such, Sysorex will be eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that apply to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including compliance with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company may take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act, for complying with new or revised accounting standards, meaning that Sysorex, as an emerging growth company, can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. Sysorex has elected to take advantage of this extended transition period, and therefore our financial statements may not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

 

Subsequent Events

 

The Company evaluates events and/or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date and before the issue date of the condensed consolidated financial statements to determine if any of those events and/or transactions requires adjustment to or disclosure in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 4 — Credit Risk and Concentrations

 

Financial instruments that subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of trade accounts receivable and cash. The Company performs certain credit evaluation procedures and does not require collateral for financial instruments subject to credit risk. The Company believes that credit risk is limited because the Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of its customers, establishes an allowance for uncollectible accounts and, consequently, believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure beyond such allowances is limited.

 

The Company maintains cash deposits with financial institutions, which, from time to time, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk from cash.

 

The following table sets forth the percentages of revenue derived by the Company from those customers that accounted for at least 10% of revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands of dollars):

Customer D   169    14%   -    - 

 

As of March 31, 2021, Customer A rand customer B represented 73% and 27% of total accounts receivable, respectively.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, purchases from three vendors represented approximately 41%, 28%, and 14% of total purchases. Purchases from these vendors during the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $472 thousand, $352 thousand, and $158 thousand. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, purchases from two vendors represented approximately 43% and 36% of total purchases.

(A) Chicago Venture Convertible Note Payable

 

On December 31, 2018, the Company issued a $625,000 principal face amount convertible promissory note (the “Convertible Note”) to an investor, which yielded net proceeds of $500,000 to the Company pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 31, 2018, by and between the Company and the investor. The Convertible Note bears interest at the rate of 10% per year and is due and payable 10 months after the date of issuance. The Convertible Note carries an original issue discount of $105,000 and the Company agreed to pay $20,000 to the Lender to cover its transaction costs incurred with the purchase and sale of the Convertible Note.

 

The agreement states that the Lender has the right to convert all or part of the outstanding balance into fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock. The conversion formula is as follows: The number of shares will equal the amount of the outstanding note balance being converted divided by $0.05 per share. Since the value of the underlying equity on the commitment date was $0.0229 per share, which was less than the lender conversion price $0.05, the Company determined there was no beneficial conversion feature.

 

The lender conversion price is subject to certain adjustment such as down-round features whereby the agreement notes that if the Company were to sell, issue or grant any common stock, option to purchase common stock, right to reprice, preferred shares convertible into common stock, or debt, warrants, options or other securities which are convertible, exercisable, or exchangeable for shares of common stock at a price per share less than the lender conversion price, then the lender conversion price shall be reduced to equal the new lower price, subject to a floor of $0.01 per share. When and if there is an adjustment under the down-round provision, the Company will analyze the accounting treatment of the adjustment.

 

Redemptions may occur at any time after the 6-month anniversary of the date of issuance of the Convertible Note with a minimum redemption price equal to the Conversion Price. If the conversion rate is less than the market price, then the redemptions must be made in cash.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2021 the Company issued 84,267 shares of common stock for the settlement of approximately $19,000 on its short-term debt.

 

Subsequent to March 31, 2021, the Company entered into discussions and a definite agreement to convert its outstanding debt and interest for the common stock of the Company. The balance outstanding as of March 31, 2021 is $870,413.

Note 7 — Commitments and Contingencies

 

Litigation

 

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company, or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims, as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

 

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements.

 

If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed.

 

Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed, unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. There can be no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial position, and results of operations or cash flows. There are no pending legal proceedings to which the Company is a party to.

 

As of March 31, 2021, the Company is subject to a claim for non-payment by a vendor for approximately $735,000 including interest which has been accrued for as of March 31, 2021 and is recorded in Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities. See Note 8 Subsequent Events, regarding resolution of this claim.

Overview

 

Sysorex was incorporated in California on January 3, 1994 as Lilien Systems and was acquired by Inpixon on March 20, 2013. Effective January 1, 2016, Inpixon consummated a reorganization transaction pursuant to which certain Inpixon subsidiaries were merged with and into Lilien and Lilien changed its name to “Sysorex USA”. Sysorex USA changed its name to Inpixon USA on March 1, 2017. On July 26, 2018, Inpixon USA merged into Sysorex, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Inpixon, for the purpose of changing its name and moving its state of formation from California to Nevada.

On August 31, 2018, Inpixon completed the spin-off (the “Spin-off”) of its value-added reseller business from its indoor positioning analytics business by way of a distribution of all the shares of common stock of Inpixon’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Sysorex, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Sysorex,” “we,” “us,” “our” and similar terms), to holders of Inpixon’s common stock, preferred stock and certain Inpixon warrants as of August 21, 2018 (the “Record Date”).

 

As a result of the Spin-off, Sysorex is an independent public company and Sysorex’s common stock began regular-way trading on the OTC Markets under the symbol “SYSX” on September 4, 2018.

 

The financial statements present the combined results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows of Sysorex and its subsidiary. These financial statements were prepared on a combined basis because the operations were under common control. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated between the combined entities.

 

Sysorex is a leading provider of information technology solutions from multiple vendors, including hardware products, software, services, including warranty and maintenance support, offered through our dedicated sales force, ecommerce channels, existing federal contracts and service team. Since our founding, we have served our customers by offering products and services from key industry vendors such as Aruba, Cisco, Dell, GETAC, Lenovo, Microsoft, Panasonic, Samsung, Symantec, VMware and others. We provide our customers with comprehensive solutions incorporating leading products and services across a variety of technology practices and platforms such as cyber, cloud, networking, security, and mobility. We utilize our professional services, consulting services and partners to develop and implement these solutions. Our sales and marketing efforts in collaboration with our vendor partners, allows us to reach multiple customer public sector segments including federal, state and local governments, as well as educational institutions. 

 

Revenues from our business are typically driven by public sector delivery orders that are received on a monthly basis. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, approximately 100% of our revenues were from these delivery orders. These delivery orders include information technology hardware, software, professional services, warranty and maintenance support, and highly integrated solutions that include two or more of the aforementioned items.

 

We experience variability in our net sales and operating results on a quarterly basis as a result of many factors. We experience some seasonal trends in our sales of technology solutions to government and educational institutions. For example, the fiscal year-ends of U.S. Public Sector customers vary for those in the federal government space and those in the state and local government and educational institution (“SLED”) space. We generally see an increase in our second quarter sales related to customers in the U.S. SLED sector and in our third quarter sales related to customers in the federal government space as these customers close out their budgets for their fiscal year (June 30th and September 30th, respectively). We may also experience variability in our gross profit and gross profit margin as a result of changes in the various vendor programs we participate in and its effect on the amount of vendor consideration we receive from a particular vendor or their authorized distributor/wholesaler, which may be impacted by a number of events outside of our control. As such, the results of interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year.

 

A substantial portion of our business is dependent on sales through existing federal contracts, known as Government Wide Acquisition Contracts (“GWAC”). We have three key GWAC contracts, known in the industry as GSA Federal Supply Schedule IT 70, NASA SEWP V, and NIH CIO-CS. Each contract can be utilized by any agency/departments of the Executive, Judiciary, and Legislative Branch, and government contractors in support of a contract. In addition to the federal government, the GSA FSS IT 70 is available to all 50-states, U.S. territories, and local government. Maintaining current vendor offerings and pricing is critical to attaining sales.

Our planned operating expenditures each quarter are based in large part on sales forecasts for the quarter. If our sales do not meet expectations in any given quarter, our operating results for the quarter may be materially adversely affected. Our narrow margins may magnify the impact of these factors on our operating results. Management regularly reviews our operating performance using a variety of financial and non-financial metrics including sales, shipments, margin, vendor consideration, advertising expense, personnel costs, account executive productivity, accounts receivable aging, supplier inventory turnover, and liquidity and cash resources. Our management monitors the various metrics against goals and budgets, and makes necessary adjustments intended to enhance our performance.

 

Our current debt repayment to key vendors due to prior non-payment of invoices has impacted our ability to receive the most favorable cost, terms, and delivery priority. General economic conditions also have an effect on our business and results of operations. For example, if the federal government fails to pass a budget or a continuing resolution before adopting an annual budget, our primary customers will not have the ability to make purchases off of our existing contracts until the budget issue is resolved, and some accounts receivables may be delayed. If current tariffs and stipulation by the government to require the purchase of goods that are substantially made or assembled in America are enacted, this could severely impact our ability to source from vendors who manufacture overseas. These factors affect sales of our products, sales cycles, adoption rates of new technologies and level of price competition. We continue to focus our efforts paying down our debt, cost controls, competitive pricing strategies, capturing new contracts, and driving higher margin service and solution sales. We also continue to make selective investments in our sales force personnel, service and solutions capabilities and internal information technology infrastructure and tools in an effort to meet vendor program requirements and to position us for enhanced productivity and future growth. 

 

COVID-19 Update 

 

In March 2020, the World Health Organization recognized a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic. In response to the pandemic, the United States and various foreign, state and local governments have, among other actions, imposed travel and business restrictions and required or advised communities in which we do business to adopt stay-at-home orders and social distancing guidelines, causing some businesses to adjust, reduce or suspend operating activities. While certain of these restrictions and guidelines have been lifted or relaxed, they may be reinstituted in response to continuing effects of the pandemic. The pandemic and the various governments’ response have caused, and continue to cause, significant and widespread uncertainty, volatility, and disruptions in the U.S. and global economies, including in the regions in which we operate.

 

On May 3, 2020, the Company received a loan of $349,693 under the Payroll Protection Program as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act which was subsequently forgiven by the Small Business Administration on April 2, 2021.

 

Through March 31, 2021, we have not experienced a material impact to our business, operations or financial results as a result of the pandemic. However, in the current and future periods, we may experience weaker customer demand, requests for discounts or extended payment terms, customer bankruptcies, supply chain disruption, employee staffing constraints and difficulties, government restrictions or other factors that could negatively impact the Company and its business, operations and financial results. As we cannot predict the duration or scope of the pandemic or its impact on economic and financial markets, any negative impact to our results cannot be reasonably estimated, but it could be material.

 

We continue to monitor closely the Company’s financial health and liquidity and the impact of the pandemic on the Company. We have been able to serve the needs of our customers while taking steps to protect the health and safety of our employees, customers, partners, and communities. Among these steps, we have transitioned to primarily working remotely and ceasing travel, which has not resulted in a material disruption to the Company’s operations. We expect to maintain many of these steps for the near future.

Further, the Company entered a number of agreements as conditions of the Merger Agreement’s closing.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

Sysorex, Inc., through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Sysorex Government Services, Inc., formerly known as Inpixon Federal, Inc. (“SGS”), and TTM Digital (unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, the terms “SGS” “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” refer collectively to Sysorex and its subsidiaries), is focused on two lines of business. The Company provides information technology which include cybersecurity, professional services, engineering support, IT consulting, enterprise level technology, networking, wireless, help desk, blockchain technology, and custom IT solutions. The Company is headquartered in Virginia.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, which are the accounting principles that are generally accepted in the United States of America. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of the Company’s operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 included in the Form 10-K filed with SEC on March 29, 2021.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

In connection with the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements, we are required to make assumptions and estimates about future events and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and the related disclosures. We base our assumptions, estimates, and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time our consolidated financial statements are prepared. On a regular basis, we review the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.

 

20

 

 

Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 3 of the condensed consolidated financial statements. We believe that the following accounting estimates are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results, and they require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, resulting from the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. There have been no changes to estimates during the periods presented in the filing. Historically, changes in management estimates have not been material.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company reports revenues under ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and all the related amendments (Topic 606)

 

The Company recognizes revenue after applying the following five steps:

 

  1) identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;

 

  2) identification of the performance obligations in the contract, including whether they are distinct within the context of the contract;

 

  3) determination of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration;

 

  4) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

 

  5) recognition of revenue when, or as, performance obligations are satisfied.

 

Hardware and Software Revenue Recognition

 

The Company is a primary resale channel for a large group of vendors and suppliers, including original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), software publishers, and wholesale distributors.  

 

The Company accounts for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are established, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. The Company evaluates the following indicators amongst others when determining whether it is acting as a principal in the transaction and recording revenue on a gross basis: (i) the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified goods or service, (ii) the Company has inventory risk before the specified good or service has been transferred to a customer or after transfer of control to the customer and (iii) the Company has discretion in establishing the price for the specified good or service. If the terms of a transaction do not indicate the Company is acting as a principal in the transaction, then the Company is acting as an agent in the transaction and the associated revenues are recognized on a net basis.

 

The Company recognizes revenue once control has passed to the customer. The following indicators are evaluated in determining when control has passed to the customer: (i) the Company has a right to payment for the product or service, (ii) the customer has legal title to the product, (iii) the Company has transferred physical possession of the product to the customer, (iv) the customer has the significant risk and rewards of ownership of the product and (v) the customer has accepted the product. The Company’s products can be delivered to customers in a variety of ways, including (i) as physical product shipped from the Company’s warehouse, (ii) via drop-shipment by the vendor or supplier or (iii) via electronic delivery of keys for software licenses. The Company’s shipping terms typically specify F.O.B. destination.

 

The Company leverages drop-shipment arrangements with many of its vendors and suppliers to deliver products to its customers without having to physically hold the inventory at its warehouses. The Company is the principal in the transaction and recognizes revenue for drop-shipment arrangements on a gross basis.

 

21

 

 

The Company may provide integration of products from multiple vendors as a solution it sells to the customer. In this arrangement, the Company provides direct warranty to the customer with the Company’s own personnel as the customer requires warranty on the solution and not individual vendor products. This type of warranty is sold integral to the overall solution quoted to the customer. The Company considers these service-type warranties to be performance obligations of the principal from the underlying products that make up a solution and therefore is acting as a principal in the transaction and records revenue on a gross basis at the point of sale.

 

License and Maintenance Services Revenue Recognition

 

The Company provides a customized design and configuration solution for its customers and in this capacity resells hardware, software and other IT equipment license and maintenance services in exchange for fixed fees. The Company selects the vendors and sells the products and services, including maintenance services, that best fit the customer’s needs. For sales of maintenance services and warranties, the customer obtains control at the point in time that the services to be provided by a third-party vendor are purchased by the customer and therefore the Company’s performance obligation to provide the overall systems solution is satisfied at that time. The Company’s customers generally pay within 30 to 60 days from the receipt of a customer-approved invoice.

 

For resale of services, including maintenance services, warranties, and extended warranties, the Company is acting as an agent as the primary activity for those services are fulfilled by a third party.

 

While the Company may facilitate and act as a first responder for these services, the third-party service providers perform the primary maintenance and warranty services for the customer. Therefore, the Company is not primarily responsible for performing these services and revenue is recorded on a net basis.

 

Professional Services Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s professional services include fixed fee and time and materials contracts. Fixed fees are paid monthly, in phases, or upon acceptance of deliverables. The Company’s time and materials contracts are paid weekly or monthly based on hours worked. Revenue on time and material contracts is recognized based on a fixed hourly rate as direct labor hours are expended. Materials, or other specified direct costs, are reimbursed as actual costs and may include markup. The Company has elected the practical expedient to recognize revenue for the right to invoice because the Company’s right to consideration corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the performance completed to date. For fixed fee contracts, the Company recognizes revenue evenly over the service period using a time-based measure because the Company is providing continuous service. Because the Company’s contracts have an expected duration of one year or less, the Company has elected the practical expedient in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606-10-50-14(a) to not disclose information about its remaining performance obligations. Anticipated losses are recognized as soon as they become known. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company did not incur any such losses. These amounts are based on known and estimated factors. Revenues from time and material or firm fixed price long-term and short-term contracts are derived principally with various United States government agencies and commercial customers.

Long-lived Assets

 

We account for our long-lived assets in accordance with ASC 360, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“ASC 360”), which requires that long-lived assets be evaluated whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable or the useful life has changed. Some of the events or changes in circumstances that would trigger an impairment test include, but are not limited to:

 

  significant under-performance relative to expected and/or historical results (negative comparable sales growth or operating cash flows for two consecutive years);

 

  significant negative industry or economic trends;

 

  knowledge of transactions involving the sale of similar property at amounts below our carrying value; or

 

  our expectation to dispose of long-lived assets before the end of their estimated useful lives, even though the assets do not meet the criteria to be classified as “held for sale.”

 

Long-lived assets are grouped for recognition and measurement of impairment at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets. The impairment test for long-lived assets requires us to assess the recoverability of our long-lived assets by comparing their net carrying value to the sum of undiscounted estimated future cash flows directly associated with and arising from our use and eventual disposition of the assets. If the net carrying value of a group of long-lived assets exceeds the sum of related undiscounted estimated future cash flows, we would be required to record an impairment charge equal to the excess, if any, of net carrying value over fair value.

 

When assessing the recoverability of our long-lived assets, which include property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets, we make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors. Some of these assumptions involve a high degree of judgment and also bear a significant impact on the assessment conclusions. Included among these assumptions are estimating undiscounted future cash flows, including the projection of comparable sales, operating expenses, capital requirements for maintaining property and equipment and residual value of asset groups. We formulate estimates from historical experience and assumptions of future performance, based on business plans and forecasts, recent economic and business trends, and competitive conditions. In the event that our estimates or related assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record an impairment charge. Based on our evaluation, we did not record a charge for impairment for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

 

The benefits to be derived from our acquired intangibles, will take additional financial resources to continue the development of our technology. Management believes our technology has significant long-term profit potential, and to date, management continues to allocate existing resources to the develop products and services to seek returns on its investment. We continue to seek additional resources, through both capital raising efforts and meeting with industry experts, as part of our continued efforts. Although there can be no assurance that these efforts will be successful, we intend to allocate financial and personnel resources when deemed possible and/or necessary. If we choose to abandon these efforts, or if we determine that such funding is not available, the related development of our technology (resulting in our lack of ability to expand our business), may be subject to significant impairment.

 

As described previously, we continue to experience weakness in market conditions, a depressed stock price, and challenges in executing our business plans. The Company will continue to monitor these uncertainties in future periods, to determine the impact.

 

We evaluate the remaining useful lives of long-lived assets and identifiable intangible assets whenever events or circumstances indicate that a revision to the remaining period of amortization is warranted. Such events or circumstances may include (but are not limited to): the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and/or other economic factors including the stability of the industry in which we operate, known technological advances, legislative actions, or changes in the regulatory environment. If the estimated remaining useful lives change, the remaining carrying amount of the long-lived assets and identifiable intangible assets would be amortized prospectively over that revised remaining useful life. We have determined that there were no events or circumstances during the three months ended March 31, 2021, which would indicate a revision to the remaining amortization period related to any of our long-lived assets. Accordingly, we believe that the current estimated useful lives of long-lived assets reflect the period over which they are expected to contribute to future cash flows and are therefore deemed appropriate.

Deferred Income Taxes

 

In accordance with ASC 740 “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), we routinely evaluate the likelihood of the realization of income tax benefits and the recognition of deferred tax assets. In evaluating the need for any valuation allowance, we will assess whether it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax asset may not be realized. Ultimately, the realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during those periods in which temporary differences become deductible and/or tax credits and tax loss carry-forwards can be utilized. In performing our analyses, we consider both positive and negative evidence including historical financial performance, previous earnings patterns, future earnings forecasts, tax planning strategies, economic and business trends and the potential realization of net operating loss carry-forwards within a reasonable timeframe. To this end, we considered (i) that we have had historical losses in the prior years and cannot anticipate generating a sufficient level of future profits in order to realize the benefits of our deferred tax asset; (ii) tax planning strategies; and (iii) the adequacy of future income as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2021, based upon certain economic conditions and historical losses through March 31, 2021. After consideration of these factors, we deemed it appropriate to establish a full valuation allowance.

 

A liability for “unrecognized tax benefits” is recorded for any tax benefits claimed in our tax filings that do not meet these recognition and measurement standards. As of March 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, no liability for unrecognized tax benefits was required to be reported. The guidance also discusses the classification of related interest and penalties on income taxes. Our policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. No interest or penalties were recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

We maintain our reserves for credit losses at a level we believe to be adequate to absorb potential losses inherent in the respective balances. We assign an internal credit quality rating to all new customers and update these ratings regularly, but no less than annually. Our determination of the adequacy of the reserve for credit losses for our accounts and notes receivable is based on the age of the receivable balance, the customer’s credit quality rating, an evaluation of historical credit losses, current economic conditions, and other relevant factors.

 

The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $50,000 as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

 

 

Three Months Ended March 31, 2021 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2020

 

The following table sets forth selected unaudited condensed consolidated financial data as a percentage of our revenue and the percentage of period-over-period change:

 

   For the Three Months Ended     
   March 31, 2021   March 31, 2020     
(in thousands, except percentages)  Amount   % of
Revenues
   Amount   % of
Revenues
  
Change
 
                     
Product revenues  $928    66%  $1,152    51%   (19)%
Services revenues  $479    34%  $1,114    49%   (57)%
Cost of net revenues - products  $829    59%  $1,127    50%   (26)%
Cost of net revenues - services  $329    23%  $868    38%   (62)%
Gross profit  $249    18%  $271    12%   (8)%
Operating expenses  $1,078    77%  $1,116    49%   (3)%
Loss from operations  $(829)   (59)%  $(845)   (37)%   (2)%
Net loss  $(1,374)   (98)%  $(1,161)   (51)%   (18)%

Revenues

 

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $1.4 million compared to $2.3 million for the comparable period in the prior year. This decrease of $0.9 million is primarily associated with timing of orders which were based on shipment and acceptance dates and as a result were recorded in April 2021.

 

Cost of Revenues

 

Cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $1.2 million compared to $2 million for the prior year period. This decrease of $0.8 million was primarily associated with timing of orders which were based on shipment and acceptance dates and as a result were recorded in April 2021.

 

The gross profit margin for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was 18% compared to 12% during the three months ended March 31, 2020. This increase in gross margin is primarily due to gains on settlement of liabilities in the current year offset by certain federal and local government sales in the prior year that drove margins down

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $1.1 million compared to $1.1 million for the prior year period. This is a relatively stable cost structure and will increase as new contracts are added throughout the year. Compensation costs, occupancy costs and travel costs have remained relatively stable year over year.

 

Loss from Operations

 

Loss from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $829 thousand compared to $845 thousand for the prior year period. The efficiencies and cost reductions in prior periods have allowed us not to increase the Company’s costs and losses.

 

Provision for Income Taxes

 

There was no provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. Deferred tax assets resulting from such losses would be fully reserved as of March 31, 2021 and 2020 since, at present, we have no history of taxable income and it is more likely than not those such assets will not be realized.

 

Net Loss

 

Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $1.4 million compared to $1.2 million for the prior year period. This increase in loss of $0.2 million was attributable to the changes described for the various reporting captions discussed above.

 

Non-GAAP Financial information

 

EBITDA

 

EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest, provision for (benefit from) income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is used by our management as the matrix in which it manages the business. It is defined as EBITDA plus adjustments for other income or expense items, non-recurring items and non-cash stock-based compensation.

 

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was a loss of $0.8 million compared to a loss of $0.6 million for the prior year period.

 

25

 

 

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income/loss attributable to stockholders of Sysorex, which is our GAAP operating performance measure, to Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

 

   Three Months Ended
March 31,
 
   2021   2020 
Net loss  $(1,374)  $(1,161)
Adjustments:          
Gain on settlement of obligations   (33)   - 
Interest expense   546    327 
Depreciation and amortization   109    186 
Adjusted EBITDA  $(752)  $(648)

 

We rely on Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure for the following:

 

  to review and assess the operating performance of our Company as permitted by ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting;
     
  to compare our current operating results with corresponding periods and with the operating results of other companies in our industry;
     
  as a basis for allocating resources to various projects;
     
  as a measure to evaluate potential economic outcomes of acquisitions, operational alternatives and strategic decisions; and
     
  to evaluate internally the performance of our personnel.

 

We have presented Adjusted EBITDA above because we believe it conveys useful information to investors regarding our operating results. We believe it provides an additional way for investors to view our operations, when considered with both our GAAP results and the reconciliation to net income (loss). By including this information, we can provide investors with a more complete understanding of our business. Specifically, we present Adjusted EBITDA as supplemental disclosure because of the following:

 

  we believe Adjusted EBITDA is a useful tool for investors to assess the operating performance of our business without the effect of interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization  and other non-cash items including stock based compensation, amortization of intangibles, change in the fair value of shares to be issued, change in the fair value of derivative liability, impairment of goodwill and one time charges including gain/loss on the settlement of obligations, severance costs, provision for doubtful accounts, acquisition costs and the costs associated with public offerings;
     
  we believe that it is useful to provide to investors a standard operating metric used by management to evaluate our operating performance; and
     
  we believe that the use of Adjusted EBITDA is helpful to compare our results to other companies.

 

Even though we believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful for investors, it does have limitations as an analytical tool. Thus, we strongly urge investors not to consider this metric in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss) and the other combined carve-out statement of operations data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Some of these limitations include the fact that:

 

  Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

 

26

 

 

  Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
     
  Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the significant interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
     
  Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
     
  Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect income or other taxes or the cash requirements to make any tax payments; and
     
  other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, thereby potentially limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

 

Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as a measure of performance in compliance with GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and providing Adjusted EBITDA only as supplemental information.

Related Party Note

 

On December 31, 2018, the Company entered into a note purchase agreement with Inpixon (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which Inpixon, the Company’s former parent, agreed to purchase from the Company at a purchase price equal to the Loan Amount (as defined below), a secured promissory note (the “Related Party Note”) for up to an aggregate principal amount of 3,000,000 (the “Principal Amount”), including any amounts advanced through the date of the Related Party Note (the “Prior Advances”), to be borrowed and disbursed in increments (such borrowed amount, together with the Prior Advances, collectively referred to as the “Loan Amount”), with interest to accrue at a rate of ten percent (10%) per annum on all such Loan Amounts, beginning as of the date of disbursement with respect to any portion of such Loan Amount. In addition, the Company agreed to pay $20,000 to Inpixon to cover Inpixon’ legal fees, accounting costs, due diligence, monitoring and other transaction costs incurred in connection with the purchase and sale of the Related Party Note (the “Transaction Expense Amount”), all of which amount is included in the Principal Amount. The initial Loan Amount, therefore, includes any amounts disbursed to the Company and the Transaction Expense Amount.

 

The Company may borrow under the Related Party Note, as needed, for a total outstanding balance, exclusive of any unpaid accrued interest, not to exceed the Principal Amount at any one time.

 

All sums advanced by Inpixon to the maturity date pursuant to the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement will become part of the aggregate Loan Amount underlying the Related Party Note. All outstanding principal amounts and accrued unpaid interest owing under the Related Party Note shall become immediately due and payable on the earlier to occur of (i) December 31, 2020 (the “Maturity Date”), (ii) at such date when declared due and payable by Inpixon upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Related Party Note), or (iii) at any such earlier date as set forth in the Related Party Note. All accrued unpaid interest shall be payable in cash.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Related Party Note, the Company granted Inpixon, subject to any and all Payplant Liens (as defined in the Related Party Note) and Permitted Liens (as defined in the Related Party Note), a continuing first priority security interest in all assets of the Company whether owned as of the date of the Related Party Note or subsequently acquired, including all proceeds therefrom (collectively, the “Collateral”) to secure the payment of the Related Party Note and all other loans and advances (including all renewals, modifications and extensions thereof) and all obligations of any and every kind and nature of the Company to Inpixon, whether arising prior to, under or after the Related Party Note, however incurred or evidenced, plus all interest, reasonable costs, reasonable expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees, which may be made or incurred by Inpixon in the disbursement, administration, and collection of such amounts, and in the protection, maintenance, and liquidation of the Collateral.

On March 1, 2020, the Related Party Note was amended to extend the maturity date from December 31, 2020 to December 31, 2022, to increase the default interest rate from 18% to 21% or the maximum rate allowable by law and to require a cash payment by the Company to Inpixon against the loan amount in an amount equal to no less than 6% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised following the completion of any financing, or series of related financings, in which the Company raises aggregate gross proceeds of at least $5 million.

 

On June 30, 2020, the “Company entered into a Promissory Note Assignment and Assumption Agreement (the “Assignment Agreement”), an Intercreditor Agreement (the “Intercreditor Agreement”), a form of partitioned Secured Promissory Note (the “Form of Partitioned Note”), and other related transaction documents with Inpixon, and Systat Software, Inc.

Inpixon is the holder of a secured promissory note, dated December 31, 2018, issued by the Company to Inpixon, as amended, (the “Original Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $10,000,000 (together with all accrued unpaid interest thereon, the “Outstanding Balance”). Inpixon and Systat Software, Inc. entered into an Exclusive Software License and Distribution Agreement with Cranes Software International Ltd. Inpixon agreed to partition the Original Note into four new secured promissory notes in the Form of Partitioned Note, with the first Partitioned Note in the original principal amount of $3,000,000, the second Partitioned Note in the original principal amount of $1,300,000, the third Partitioned Note in the original principal amount of $1,000,000 and the fourth Partitioned Note to be in the original principal amount of $1,000,000 plus all accrued unpaid interest under the Original Note included in the Outstanding Balance, and assigned and delivered to Systat Software, Inc. the Closing Note on the closing date of the License Agreement (the “Closing Date”), the Initial Installment Note on the three month anniversary of the Closing Date the Second Installment Note on the six month anniversary of the Closing Date, and the Third Installment Note on the nine month anniversary of the Closing Date. Nadir Ali, a member of the Company’s board of directors, is also Inpixon’s Chief Executive Officer and a member of its board of directors. The transactions disclosed herein were approved by all of the disinterested members of the Company’s board of directors.

 

The proceeds received and interest and legal costs accrued, in accordance with the Related Party Note as of March 31, 2021 was $9,088,176.

The Right to Shares Letter Agreement includes a beneficial ownership limitation that states that in no event shall Inpixon be issued that number of shares which would result in Inpixon’s beneficial ownership exceeding 9.99%.

Short Term Debt

 

Chicago Venture Convertible Note Payable

 

On December 31, 2018, the Company issued a $625,000 principal face amount convertible promissory note (the “Convertible Note”) to Chicago Venture Partners, L.P. (“CVP”), which yielded net proceeds of $500,000 to the Company pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 31, 2018, by and between the Company and CVP. The Convertible Note bears interest at the rate of 10% per year and is due and payable 10 months after the date of issuance. The Convertible Note carries an original issue discount of $105,000 and the Company agrees to pay $20,000 to the CVP to cover its transaction costs incurred with the purchase and sale of the Convertible Note.

 

28

 

 

The agreement states that CVP has the right to convert all or part of the outstanding balance into fully paid and non-assessable common stock. The conversion formula is as follows: The number of shares will equal the amount of the outstanding note balance being converted divided by $5.00 per share. The Company determined since the value of the underlying equity on the commitment date was $2.29 per share, was less than conversion price $5.00, the Company determined there was no beneficial conversion feature.

 

The Lender Conversion Price is subject to certain adjustment such as down-round features whereby the agreement notes that if the Company were to sell, issue or grant any common stock, option to purchase common stock, right to reprice, preferred shares convertible into common stock, or debt, warrants, options or other securities which are convertible, exercisable, or exchangeable for shares of common stock at a price per share less than the conversion price, then the conversion price shall be reduced to equal the new lower price, subject to a floor of $1.00 per share. When and if there is an adjustment under the down-round provision, the Company will analyze the accounting treatment of the adjustment.

 

Redemptions may occur at any time after the 6-month anniversary of the date of issuance of the Convertible Note with a minimum redemption price equal to the Conversion Price. If the conversion rate is less than the market price, then the redemptions must be made in cash.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2021 the Company issued 84,267 shares of common stock for the settlement of approximately $19,000 on its short-term debt.

 

Prior to March 31, 2021, the Company entered into discussions and a definite agreement to convert its outstanding debt and interest for the common stock of the Company. The balance outstanding as of March 31, 2021 is $870,413. See Note 8 – Subsequent Events, regarding merger and discussion of conversion of its debt to equity.

An additional 1.0% per 10-day period will be charged for invoices exceeding 60 days from invoice date.

First Choice Promissory Note Payable

 

On March 19, 2021, the Company, Systat and First Choice International Company, Inc. (“Lender”) entered into a Letter Agreement (“Letter Agreement”), providing for the advance payment by the Lender of $2,000,000 (“Advance”) to Systat on behalf of the Company. In consideration of the Advance, Systat agreed it would (a) enter into a Securities Settlement Agreement (“SSA”) with the Company for the cancellation of three promissory notes owed (or to be owed) by the Company in the aggregate principal amount of $3,300,000 (“Notes One - Three”) to Systat; and (b) assign a fourth note dated June 30, 2020, in the principal amount of $3,000,000 (“Fourth Note”) to Lender to be held as collateral pending repayment by the Company of the Advance as further set forth below.

The number of shares to be issued will be determined at a later date. The Company and the Lender are continuing to negotiate the terms of a loan agreement providing for repayment by the Company of the Advance as well as the terms of a SSA to be entered into between the Lender and the Company whereby the Lender will cancel the Fourth Note on substantially similar terms as will be negotiated between the Company and Systat for Notes One-Three.

 

The Promissory Note balance outstanding as of March 31, 2021 is $5,000,000, which includes the $3,000,000 Fourth Note and the $2,000,000 First Choice Note.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources as of March 31, 2021 

 

Our capital resources and operating results as of and through March 31, 2021, consist of:

 

  1) an overall working capital deficit of $12.8 million;
     
  2) certain large orders from customers paying earlier than 30-day terms
     
  3) net cash used in operating activities for the year-to date of $2.1 million.
     
  4) some vendors starting to provide net-30-day terms

 

The breakdown of our overall working capital deficit is as follows (in thousands):

 

Working Capital  Assets   Liabilities   Net 
             
Accounts receivable and other receivables, net / accounts payable and accrued liabilities   335    8,620    (8,285)
Other   2,388    6,876    (4,488)
Total  $2,723   $15,496   $(12,773)

 

31

 

 

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities exceed the accounts receivable by $8.3 million. These deficits are expected to be funded by our anticipated cash flow from operations and financing activities, as described below, over the next twelve months.

 

Net cash used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2021 of $125 thousand consists of net loss of $1.4 million plus non-cash adjustments of $1.1 million thousand and net cash used in changes in operating assets and liabilities of $145 thousand. We expect net cash from operations to increase during the remainder of 2021, as a result of, the following:

 

  1) We continue to keep our operational costs low in 2021.
     
  2) We are working with our key distributors and financing partners to address our credit limitation issues. We believe revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020 could have been higher but were negatively impacted by our inability to timely process orders due to past due amounts and credit limitations with various vendors. See Note 8- Subsequent events for discussion on the merger as of April 14, 2021, which will eliminate significant amounts of our debt, reduce our stockholder’s deficit and ultimately allow us to obtain better pricing from our vendors. We also expect to relieve some of these issues by continuing to grow our services revenue.

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset amounts or the classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the condensed consolidated financial statements are issued. 

 

The Company’s continuation is dependent upon attaining and maintaining profitable operations and raising additional capital as needed, but there can be no assurance that we will be able to close on any financing. The Company’s ability to generate positive cash flow from operations is dependent upon sustaining certain cost reductions and generating sufficient revenues.

 

Based on future debt and /or equity offerings, projected revenues, the revolving credit facility that the Company entered into in order to continue to finance purchase orders and invoices following the Spin-off and the $10 million related party note from Inpixon, credit limitation improvements resulting or anticipated to result from negotiated vendor settlement arrangements have occurred. There are, however, no guarantees that these sources will be sufficient to provide the capital necessary to fund the Company’s operations during the next twelve months, therefore, the Company does intend to seek other sources of capital to supplement and strengthen its financial position under financing structures that are available to it. We expect as a result of the merger as note in Note 8- Subsequent events, we will have the ability to negotiate better terms and pricing with our vendors.

 

Our history of operating losses, the amount of our indebtedness and the potential for significant judgments to be rendered against us may impair our ability to raise capital on terms that we consider reasonable and at the levels that we will require over the coming months. We cannot provide any assurances that we will be able to secure additional funding from public or private offerings or debt financings on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain the requisite amount of financing needed to fund our planned operations, it would have a material adverse effect on our business and ability to continue as a going concern, and we may have to curtail, or even to cease, certain operations.

Going Concern and Management Plans

 

Our condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2021 have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern for the next twelve months from the date the financial statements are issued. Footnote 1 to the notes to our financial statements as of March 31, 2021 include language referring to our recurring and continuing losses from operations and expressing substantial doubt in our ability to continue as a going concern without additional capital becoming available. Management’s plans and assessment of the probability that such plans will mitigate and alleviate any substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, is dependent upon the ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing, attain further operating efficiency, reduce expenditures, and, ultimately, to generate sufficient levels of revenue, which together represent the principal conditions that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2021 do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Internal controls are procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that (1) our transactions are properly authorized, recorded and reported; and (2) our assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use, to permit the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP.

 

In connection with the preparation of this Form 10-Q, management, with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

Changes in Internal Controls

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Limitations of the Effectiveness of Control

 

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations of any control system, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected.

On October 20, 2020, VMS Software, Inc. (“VMS”) filed suit against us in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts Eastern Division, Case # # 1:20-CV-11895-WGY. In its complaint, VMS alleged that the Company has failed to make payments to VMS in the amount of $652,255 (plus interest of 8% from June 28, 2019) pursuant to a written settlement agreement. We filed an Answer to the Complaint and VMS filed a motion for judgment on the pleadings based on the admission that no payments have been made under the settlement agreement.

 

On April 6, 2021, the Company entered a definitive settlement agreement (the “Settlement”) with VMS, whereby (i) the Company paid to VMS, seventy-five thousand dollars ($75,000.00); (ii) the Company is required to make four (4) additional periodic payments to VMS, commencing thirty (30) days from the effective date of the Settlement (the “Effective Date”), each in the amount of one hundred sixty-five thousand sixty-eight dollars and fifty cents ($165,068.50); (iii) if VMS receives from the Company payments totaling six hundred twenty-five thousand dollars ($625,000.00) within forty-five (45) days from the Effective Date, VMS will accept such six hundred twenty-five thousand dollars ($625,000.00) as full satisfaction of the Company’s payment obligations under the Settlement; (iv) if VMS receives from the Company payments totaling six hundred fifty thousand dollars ($650,000.00) within sixty (60) days from the Effective Date, VMS will accept such six hundred fifty thousand dollars ($650,000.00) as full satisfaction of Company’s payment obligations under the Settlement; (v) if, within ninety-one (91) days of VMS’s receipt of any of the Company’s payments pursuant to its obligations in paragraph 1 of the Settlement, the Company commences, or a third party commences against the Company, any case, proceeding, or other action under the United States Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 101 et seq, which is not dismissed within thirty (30) days, then VMS’s release of the Company contained in paragraph 2 of the Settlement shall be null, void, and of no force or effect, and the Parties shall be returned to the position they were in prior to execution of this Agreement, except that VMS may retain any payment made to it by the Company, crediting same against those sums claimed by VMS. In connection with the Settlement, on April 14, 2021, the Company and the Lender entered into a commercial loan agreement, secured promissory note, and stock pledge agreement (“Loan Documents”) whereby the Lender has provided an immediate loan of $278,368.50 to the Company (the “Loan”) in consideration of a promissory note secured with a pledge of that number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to three hundred percent (300%) of the Loan inclusive of the outstanding balance of the settlement entered into by and between the Company and VMS, for a reserved amount of 2,631,708 shares of Common Stock.

 

As of May 17, 2021, $384,932 was paid, in full satisfaction of the Company’s obligations of the Settlement.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

We face a number of significant risks and uncertainties in connection with our operations. Our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected by these risks. Except as disclosed below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors listed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Risks Related to our Software Business

 

The ongoing coronavirus outbreak, and measures taken in response thereto, could continue to have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

Our business is highly susceptible to changes in economic conditions. Our products and services are directly tied to the production and sale of goods and, more generally, to the North American economy. The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted economic activity and conditions worldwide and created significant volatility and disruption to financial markets. Efforts to control the spread of COVID-19 have led governments and other authorities to impose restrictions which have resulted in business closures and disrupted supply chains worldwide. As a result, transportation and supply chain companies such as ours have experienced slowdowns and reduced demand and could continue to further negatively impact our business.

 

Furthermore, quarantines, shelter in place orders, labor shortages due to illness and otherwise, business and facility closures or other disruptions to our operations, or our customers’ operations, have also adversely impacted demand for our services and our ability to provide services to our customers.

 

We have a history of operating losses and working capital deficiency and there is no assurance that we will be able to achieve profitability raise additional financing or continue as a going concern.

 

We have a history of operating losses and working capital deficiency. We have incurred recurring net losses of approximately $1.4 million and $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We had a working capital deficiency of approximately $12.8 million and $9.1 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q are issued. Implementation of our plans and our ability to continue as a going concern will depend upon attaining and maintaining profitable operations and raising additional capital as needed, but there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise any further financing.

 

Our ability to generate positive cash flow from operations is dependent upon sustaining certain cost reductions and generating sufficient revenues. We have funded our operations primarily with a revolving loan from Inpixon, our former parent. Our history of operating losses, the amount of our debt and the potential for significant judgments to be rendered against us may impair our ability to raise capital on terms that we consider reasonable and at the levels that we will require over the coming months. We cannot provide any assurances that we will be able to secure additional funding from public or private offerings or debt financings on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain the requisite amount of financing needed to fund our planned operations, it would have a material adverse effect on our business and ability to continue as a going concern, and we may have to curtail, or even to cease, certain operations. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity securities or convertible debt securities, it will be dilutive to our stockholders and could result in a decrease in our stock price.

 

Adverse judgments or settlements in legal proceedings could materially harm our business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.

 

We are subject to pending claims for non-payment by certain vendors in an aggregate amount of approximately $5.8 million as of March 31, 2021, which is approximately 331% of our total assets. We may also be a party to other claims that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of our business, which may include those related to, for example, contracts, sub-contracts, protection of confidential information or trade secrets, adversary proceedings arising from customer bankruptcies, employment of our workforce and immigration requirements or compliance with any of a wide array of state and federal statutes, rules and regulations that pertain to different aspects of our business. We may also be required to initiate expensive litigation or other proceedings to protect our business interests. There is a risk that we will not be successful or otherwise be able to satisfactorily resolve any pending or future litigation. In addition, litigation and other legal claims are subject to inherent uncertainties and management’s view of currently pending legal matters may change in the future. Those uncertainties include, but are not limited to, litigation costs and attorneys’ fees, unpredictable judicial or jury decisions and the differing laws and judicial proclivities regarding damage awards among the states in which we operate. Unexpected outcomes in such legal proceedings, or changes in management’s evaluation or predictions of the likely outcomes of such proceedings (possibly resulting in changes in established reserves), could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Due to recurring losses and net capital deficiency, our current financial status may increase our default and litigation risks and may make us more financially vulnerable in the face of pending or threatened litigation.

We are a holding company whose subsidiaries are given certain degree of independence and our failure to integrate our subsidiaries may adversely affect our financial condition.

 

We have given our subsidiary companies and their executives a certain degree of independence in decision-making. On the one hand, this independence may increase the sense of ownership at all levels, on the other hand it has also increased the difficulty of the integration of operation and management, which has resulted in increased difficulty of management integration. In the event we are not able to successfully manage our subsidiaries this will result in operating difficulties and have a negative impact on our business.
