Note 1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Business Operations

VirTra, Inc. (the “Company,” “VirTra,” “we,” “us” or “our”), located in Tempe, Arizona, is a global provider of judgmental use of force training simulators, firearms training simulators and driving simulators for the law enforcement, military, educational and commercial markets. The Company’s patented technologies, software, and scenarios provide intense training for de-escalation, judgmental use-of-force, marksmanship and related training that mimics real-world situations. VirTra’s mission is to save and improve lives worldwide through practical and highly-effective virtual reality and simulator technology. The Company sells its products worldwide through a direct sales force and international distribution partners. The original business started in 1993 as Ferris Productions, Inc. In September 2001, Ferris Productions, Inc. merged with GameCom, Inc. to ultimately become VirTra, Inc., a Nevada corporation.

During March 2020, a global pandemic was declared by the World Health Organization related to the rapidly growing outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19). The pandemic has significantly impacted the economic conditions in the U.S., accelerating during half of March and April as federal, state and local governments react to the public health crisis, creating significant uncertainties in the U.S. economy. On March 30, 2020, the Governor for the State of Arizona issued a stay-at-home order which expired on May 15, 2020, upon which Arizona entered Phase I of reopening. The Company carefully reviewed all rules and regulations of the government orders and determined it met the requirements of an essential business to remain open. The Company had the majority of its staff begin working remotely in mid-March, with only essential personnel continue working at the manufacturing and production facilities and currently remains in Arizona’s Phase I of reopening. This situation is rapidly changing and additional impacts to the business may arise that we are not aware of currently. While the disruption is currently expected to be temporary, there is uncertainty around the duration. The ultimate impact of the pandemic on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, liquidity or capital resources cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. To date, the COVID-19 restrictions have resulted in reduced customer shipments and customer system installations. These recent developments are expected to result in lower recognized revenue and possibly lower gross margin when they occur. To date, there have been no order cancellations; rather, there have only been delays in when orders ship or installations occur and all delayed orders remain in backlog. Any future impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The Company is no longer investing in Certificates of Deposits as a precautionary measure to increase its liquid cash position and preserve financial flexibility considering uncertainty in the U.S. and global markets resulting from COVID-19. Additionally, the Company’s stock repurchase program was suspended as a result of interim rulings for public-company recipients of a PPP loan under the CARES Act. The stock repurchase suspension will remain in effect for the duration of the outstanding PPP loan.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited financial statements included herein have been prepared by us without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC on March 29, 2021. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted as permitted by the SEC, although we believe the disclosures that are made are adequate to make the information presented herein not misleading.

The accompanying unaudited financial statements reflect, in our opinion, all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position at March 31, 2021 and the results of our operations and cash flows for the periods presented. We derived the December 31, 2020 condensed balance sheet data from audited financial statements; however, we did not include all disclosures required by GAAP.

Interim results are subject to seasonal variations, and the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Significant accounting estimates in these financial statements include valuation assumptions for share-based payments, allowance for doubtful accounts and notes receivable, inventory reserves, accrual for warranty reserves, the carrying value of long-lived assets and intangible assets, income tax valuation allowances, the carrying value of cost basis investments, and the allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in our contracts with customers.

Revenue Recognition

The Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customer (Topic 606) (“ASC 606”) on January 1, 2018 and the Company elected to use the modified retrospective transition method which requires application of ASC 606 to uncompleted contracts at the date of adoption. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on the financial statements.

Under ASC 606, the Company must identify the contract with a customer, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation. Significant judgment is necessary when making these determinations.

The Company’s primary sources of revenue are derived from simulator and accessories sales, training and installation, the sale of customizable software and the sale of extended service-type warranties. The Company’s policy is to typically invoice upon completion of installation and/or training until such time the performance obligations that have been satisfied are included in unbilled. Sales discounts are presented in the financial statements as reductions in determining net revenues. Credit sales are recorded as current assets (accounts receivable and unbilled revenue). Prepaid deposits received at the time of sale and extended warranties purchased are recorded as current and long-term liabilities (deferred revenue) until earned. The following briefly summarizes the nature of our performance obligations and method of revenue recognition:

The Company recognizes revenue upon transfer of control or upon completion of the services for the simulator and accessories; for the installation and training and customized software performance obligations as the customer has the right and ability to direct the use of these products and services and the customer obtains substantially all of the remaining benefit from these products and services at that time. Revenue from certain customized content contracts may be recognized over the period the services are performed based on the terms of the contract. For the sales-based royalty exchanged for license of intellectual property, the Company recognized revenue as the sales occur over time.

The Company recognizes revenue on a straight-line basis over the period of services being rendered for the extended service-type warranties as these warranties represent a performance obligation to “stand ready to perform” over the duration of the warranties. As such, the warranty service is performed continuously over the warranty period.

Each contract states the transaction price. The contracts do not include variable consideration, significant financing components or noncash consideration. The Company has elected to exclude sales and similar taxes from the measurement of the transaction price. The contract’s transaction price is allocated to the performance obligations based upon their stand-alone selling prices. Discounts to the stand-alone selling prices, if any, are allocated proportionately to each performance obligation.

Disaggregation of Revenue

Under ASC 606, disaggregated revenue from contracts with customers depicts the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows affected by economic factors. The Company has evaluated revenues recognized and the following table illustrates the disaggregation disclosure by customer’s location and performance obligation.

Disaggregation of Revenue

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, governmental customers comprised $2,935,718, or 66% of total net sales, commercial customers comprised $330,333, or 7% of total net sales, and international customers comprised $1,175,858, or 27% of total net sales. By comparison, for the three months ended March 31, 2020, governmental customers comprised $2,918,693, or 87% of total net sales, commercial customers comprised $72,350, or 2% of total net sales, and international customers comprised $347,120, or 10% of total net sales.

Customer Deposits

Customer deposits consist of prepaid deposits received for equipment purchase orders and for Subscription Training Equipment Partnership (“STEP”) operating agreements that expire annually. Customer deposits are considered a deferred liability until the completion of the customer’s contract performance obligation. When revenue is recognized, the deposit is applied to customer’s receivable balance. Customer deposits are recorded as a current liability under deferred revenue on the accompanying balance sheet and totaled $1,807,947 and $2,517,175 at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Changes in deferred revenue amounts related to customer deposits will fluctuate from year to year based upon the mix of customers required to prepay deposits under the Company’s credit policy.

Warranty

The Company warranties its products from manufacturing defects on a limited basis for a period of one year after purchase, but also sells separately priced extended service-type warranties for periods of up to four years after the expiration of the standard one-year warranty. During the term of the initial one-year warranty, if the device fails to operate properly from defects in materials and workmanship, the Company will fix or replace the defective product. Deferred revenue for separately priced extended warranties one year or less totaled $1,962,982 and $2,191,400 as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Deferred revenue for separately priced extended warranties longer than one year totaled $1,771,288 and $1,920,346 as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The accrual for the one-year manufacturer’s warranty liability totaled $352,000 and $352,000 as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized revenue of $712,708 and $649,120, respectively, related to the extended service-type warranties that was amortized from the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each period. Changes in deferred revenue amounts related to extended service-type warranties will fluctuate from year to year based upon the average remaining life of the warranties at the beginning of the period and new extended service-type warranties sold during the period.

Concentration of Credit Risk and Major Customers and Suppliers

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, certificates of deposit, accounts receivable and notes receivable.

The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and certificates of deposit are maintained with financial institutions with high credit standings and are FDIC insured deposits. The FDIC insures deposits according to the ownership category in which the funds are insured and how the accounts are titled. The standard deposit insurance coverage limit is $250,000 per depositor, per FDIC-insured bank, per ownership category. The Company had uninsured cash and cash equivalents of $4,537,593 and $6,338,896 as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Most sales are to governments that are typically made on credit and the Company generally does not require collateral. Management performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and maintains an allowance for estimated losses. Historically, the Company has experienced minimal charges relative to doubtful accounts.

Management performs ongoing evaluations of the collectability of its notes receivable and maintains an allowance for estimated losses.

Historically, the Company primarily sells its products to United States federal and state agencies. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, one federal agency comprised 10% and one foreign agency comprised 22% of total net sales. By comparison, for the three months ended March 31, 2020, one federal agency comprised 17% and one state agency comprised 15% of total net sales.

As of March 31, 2021, one federal agency comprised 16.5%, and two state agencies comprised of 11.5% and 11%, respectively, of total accounts receivable. By comparison, as of December 31, 2020, one federal agency comprised 8.5% and one state agency comprised 31% of total accounts receivable.

Note 2. Inventory

Inventory consisted of the following as of:

The Company regularly evaluates the useful life of its spare parts inventory and as a result, the Company classified $500,114 and $500,114 of spare parts as Other Assets, long-term on the Balance Sheet at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Note 3. Property and Equipment

Property and equipment consisted of the following as of:

Depreciation expense, including STEP depreciation, was $95,068 and $87,454 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Note 4. Intangible Asset

Intangible asset consisted of the following as of:

Amortization expense was $2,222 and $2,222 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Note 5. Leases

The Company leases approximately 37,729 rentable square feet of office and warehouse space from an unaffiliated third party for our corporate office, manufacturing, assembly, warehouse and shipping facility located at 7970 South Kyrene Road, Tempe, Arizona 85284. In addition, the Company leases approximately 5,131 rentable square feet of space for our machine shop located at 7910 South Kyrene Road, within the same business complex as our main office. The Company executed a lease amendment extending its existing office lease through April 2024. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees, restrictive covenants or variable lease payments. The Company has not entered into any financing leases.

In addition to base rent, the Company’s lease generally provides for additional payments for other charges, such as rental tax. The lease includes fixed rent escalations. The Company’s lease does not include an option to renew.

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are recorded in operating lease right of use assets, net, operating lease liability – short term, and operating lease liability – long-term on its condensed balance sheet.

Operating lease assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the Company’s lease does not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate used at adoption was 4.5%. Significant judgement is required when determining the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. The Company uses the implicit rate when readily determinable. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company obtained a right-of-use asset in exchange for a new operating lease liability in the amount of $1,721,380 and derecognized $46,523 deferred rent for an adjusted operating lease right-of-use asset in the net amount of $1,674,857.

The balance sheet classification of lease assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2021 was as follows:

Future minimum lease payments as of March 31, 2021 under non-cancelable operating leases are as follows:

The balance sheet classification of lease assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2020 was as follows:

Future minimum lease payments as of December 31, 2020 under non-cancelable operating leases are as follows:

Rent expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was $143,757 and $133,001, respectively.

Note 6. Accrued Expenses

Accrued compensation and related costs consisted of the following as of:

Accrued expenses and other current liabilities consisted of the following as of:

Note 7. Note Payable

On May 8, 2020, VirTra received a Promissory Note (the “PPP Note”) in the amount of $1,320,714 under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) from Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (the “Lender”). The Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), provides for loans to qualifying businesses for amounts up to 2.5 times of the average monthly payroll expenses of the qualifying business. Under the terms of the PPP loan, up to the entire amount of principal and accrued interest may be forgiven to the extent PPP loan proceeds are used for qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act and applicable implementing guidance issued by the U.S. Small Business Administration for the PPP loan. The Company intends to use its entire PPP Note amount for designated qualifying expenses and to apply for forgiveness in accordance with the PPP loan terms. No assurance can be given that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the PPP Note in whole or in part. With respect to any portion of the PPP Note that is not forgiven, the PPP Note will be subject to customary provisions for a loan of this type, including customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, breaches of the provisions of the PPP Note and cross-defaults on any other loan with the Lender or other creditors.

Under this approach, the Company will initially account for the PPP Note as a debt instrument and apply the interest method considering the six-month payment deferral allowed for the loan. The PPP Note is payable over two years at a fixed interest rate of 1%. The payments due and payable monthly are in the amount of $55,604 commencing November 6, 2020 and continuing on the 8th day of each month thereafter until maturity on May 8, 2022. Under conventional terms at loan maturity the total repayment could total $1,320,714 principal and $18,720 of interest over the two-year period, for a combined repayment of $1,339,434. Any portion not forgiven, can be prepaid at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. The Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act (the “Flexibility Act”), signed on June 5, 2020, amended certain provisions of the PPP, including the deferral period and repayment terms. The Flexibility Act extends the deferral period of payments of PPP loan principal, interest, and fees to the date when the SBA makes a final decision on the borrower’s application for forgiveness, or 10 months after the last day of the covered period if a borrower has not applied for forgiveness (whichever is earlier). This extension applies regardless of the terms of the PPP and does not require an amendment of the PPP. As such, the Company has not made any payments on the PPP note during 2021 or 2020.

The entire PPP Note amount is recorded as a financial liability on the entity’s balance sheet with the next twelve months of principal plus accrued interest recorded as short-term liabilities and the remaining principal note balance recorded as a long-term liability. The note payable amounts consist of the following:

Note 8. Related Party Transactions

During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company redeemed 5,000 and 0 previously awarded stock options nearing expiration from the Company’s CEO. The redemption eliminated the stock options and resulted in a total of $32,610 and $0 in additional compensation expense in 2021 and 2020, respectively.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company redeemed 3,750 and 3,750 previously awarded stock options nearing expiration from the Company’s COO. The redemption eliminated the stock options and resulted in a total of $24,457 and $3,639 in additional compensation expense in 2021 and 2020, respectively.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company issued 2,500 and 7,500 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), to related parties consisting of the CEO and one member of the Board of Directors for previously awarded stock options at an exercise price of $3,620 and $6,300, respectively.

Note 9. Commitments and Contingencies

General or Threatened Litigation

From time to time, the Company is notified of threatened litigation or that a claim is being made against it. The Company evaluates contingencies on an on-going basis and has established loss provisions for matters in which losses are probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. There is no threatened litigation at this time.

Employment Agreements

On April 2, 2012, the Company entered into three-year Employment Agreements with its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer that provide for annual base salaries of $195,000 and $175,000, respectively, subject to cost of living adjustments, and contain automatic one-year extension provisions. These contracts have been renewed annually and have been adjusted based on the same percentage increase approved for Company-wide cost-of-living adjustments.

Profit Sharing

VirTra provides a discretionary profit-sharing program that pays out a percentage of Company profits each year as a cash bonus to eligible employees. The cash payment is typically split into two equal payments and distributed pro-rata in April and October of the following year to only active employees. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, no amount was credited to operations due to uncertainty related to on-going COVID restrictions. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, no amount was credited to operations due to the net loss.

On October 25, 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $1 million of its common stock under Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Purchases made pursuant to this authorization will be made in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or pursuant to any trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with the Rule 10b-18. The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be determined by the Company in its discretion and will be subject to economic and market conditions, stock price, applicable legal requirements and other factors. On January 9, 2019, VirTra’s Board of Directors authorized an additional $1 million be allocated for the repurchase of VirTra’s stock under the existing 10b-18 plan. The stock repurchase program was suspended as a result of interim rulings for public-company recipients of a PPP loan under the CARES Act.

Treasury Stock

During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company purchased no additional treasury shares. As of March 31, 2021, all treasury shares previously purchased had been cancelled and returned to shares authorized.

Non-qualified Stock Options

The Company has periodically issued non-qualified stock options to key employees, officers and directors under a stock option compensation plan approved by the Board of Directors in 2009. Terms of option grants are at the discretion of the Board of Directors and are generally seven years. Upon the exercise of these options, the Company expects to issue new authorized shares of its common stock. The following table summarizes all non-qualified stock options as of:

The Company did not have any non-vested stock options outstanding as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The weighted average contractual term for options outstanding and exercisable at March 31, 2021 and 2020 was 7 years. The aggregate intrinsic value of the options outstanding and exercisable at March 31, 2021 and 2020 was $443,036 and $111,738, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised and redeemed during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was $52,898 and $10,575, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company received payments related to the exercise of options in the amount of $3,620 and $6,300, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying options and the fair value of the Company’s common stock for those stock options that have an exercise price lower than the fair value of the Company’s common stock. Options with an exercise price above the fair value of the Company’s common stock are considered to have no intrinsic value.

2017 Equity Incentive Plan

On August 23, 2017, our board approved, subject to stockholder approval at the annual meeting of stockholders on October 6, 2017, the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Plan”). The Equity Plan is intended to make available incentives that will assist us to attract, retain and motivate employees, including officers, consultants and directors. We may provide these incentives through the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and units and other cash-based or stock-based awards.

A total of 1,187,500 shares of our Common Stock was initially authorized and reserved for issuance under the Equity Plan. This reserve automatically increased on January 1, 2020, and will increase each subsequent anniversary through 2027, by an amount equal to the smaller of (a) 3% of the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31, or (b) an amount determined by the board.

Awards may be granted under the Equity Plan to our employees, including officers, directors or consultants or those of any present or future parent or subsidiary corporation or other affiliated entity. All awards will be evidenced by a written agreement between us and the holder of the award and may include any of the following: stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and performance units and cash-based awards and other stock-based awards.

Through March 31, 2021, no awards have been granted under the Equity Plan.

Business Overview

VirTra, Inc. (the “Company,” “VirTra,” “we,” “us” and “our”) is a global provider of judgmental use of force training simulators, firearms training simulators and driving simulators for the law enforcement, military, educational and commercial markets. The Company’s patented technologies, software, and scenarios provide intense training for de-escalation, judgmental use-of-force, marksmanship and related training that mimics real-world situations. VirTra’s mission is to save and improve lives worldwide through practical and highly-effective virtual reality and simulator technology.

The VirTra firearms training simulator allows marksmanship and realistic scenario-based training to take place on a daily basis without the need for a shooting range, protective equipment, role players, safety officers, or a scenario-based training site. We have developed a higher standard in simulation training including capabilities such as: multi-screen, video-based scenarios, unique scenario authoring ability, superior training scenarios, the patented Threat-Fire® shoot-back system, powerful gas-powered simulated recoil weapons, and more. The simulator also allows students to receive immediate feedback from the instructor without the potential for sustaining injuries by the instructor or the students. The instructor is able to teach and re-mediate critical issues, while placing realistic stress on the students due to the realism and safe training environment created by the VirTra simulator.

VirTra’s Driver Training Simulator™ is a vehicle-based simulator, complete with next-generation graphics, motion and a variety of other features. The system is designed to provide safe, reliable environment for efficient skill transfer for all law enforcement driver training. In addition, the driving rig adds realism with vibration and motion while the modern physics-based rendering engine provides not only photo-realistic realism but critical hazards such as dust storms, rain, and sun glare. VirTra’s Driver Training Simulator™ provides an extensive and realistic range of training environments that allow for initial driver familiarization and orientation to advanced concepts, high-risk pursuits and defensive driving drills.

We also are engaged in licensing our technology to That’s Eatertainment Corp. (“TEC”), a developer and operator of a combined dining and entertainment concept centered on an indoor shooting experience. Mitchell Saltz, who was a member of our Board of Directors until his passing in October 2020, was the former Chairman of the Board and majority stockholder of TEC. Accordingly, until October 2020, TEC was a related party.

Business Strategy

We have four main customer groups, namely, law enforcement, military, educational (includes colleges and police academies) and civilian. These are very different markets and require different sales and marketing programs as well as personnel. Our focus is to expand the market share and scope of our training simulators sales to these identified customer groups by pursuing the following key growth strategies:

Our simulator products include the following:

Recent Developments

During March 2020, a global pandemic was declared by the World Health Organization related to the rapidly growing outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19). The pandemic has significantly impacted the economic conditions in the U.S., accelerating during half of March and April as federal, state and local governments react to the public health crisis, creating significant uncertainties in the U.S. economy. On March 30, 2010, the Governor for the State of Arizona issued a stay-at-home order, currently in effect until May 15, 2020. The Company carefully reviewed all rules and regulations of the government orders and determined it met the requirements of an essential business to remain open. The Company had the majority of its staff begin working remotely in mid-March, with only essential personnel continue working at the manufacturing and production facilities. This situation is rapidly changing and additional impacts to the business may arise that we are not aware of currently. While the disruption is currently expected to be temporary, there is uncertainty around the duration. The ultimate impact of the pandemic on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, liquidity or capital resources cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. To date, the COVID-19 restrictions have resulted in reduced customer shipments and customer system installations. These recent developments are expected to result in lower recognized revenue and possibly lower gross margin when they occur. To date, there have been no order cancellations only delays in when orders ship or installations occur and all delayed orders remain in backlog. Although not a material component of our company, a significant adverse change in the business climate could affect the value of the Company’s long-term investment in TEC, currently there has not been a negative impact and any future impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The Company is no longer investing in Certificates of Deposits as a precautionary measure to increase its liquid cash position and preserve financial flexibility considering uncertainty in the U.S. and global markets resulting from COVID-19. Additionally, the Company’s stock repurchase program was suspended as a result of interim rulings for public-company recipients of a PPP loan under the CARES Act. The stock repurchase suspension will remain in effect for the duration of the outstanding PPP loan.

Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020

Revenues. Revenues were $4,441,909 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $3,338,163 for the same period in 2020, an increase of $1,103,746, or 33%. The increase in revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2021 resulted from an increase in the number of simulators and accessories completed, delivered and revenue recognized compared to the same period in 2020.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales were $1,873,404 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $1,742,936 for the same period in 2020, an increase of $130,468, or 7%. The increase was due to additional material costs due to higher quantities of simulator systems and accessories sold. The cost of sales on a dollar basis varies from quarter-to-quarter as a result of sales volume and product mix.

Gross Profit. Gross profit was $2,568,505 for the three months ended March 31,2021 compared to $1,595,227 for the same period in 2020, an increase of $973,278, or 61%. The gross profit margin was 58% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 48% for the same period in 2020. The increase in gross profit was due to decreased costs, and the product mix of systems, accessories and services sold.

Operating Expenses. Net operating expense was $2,004,450 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $2,107,131 for the same period in 2020, a decrease of $102,681, or 5%. The decrease was mainly due to reduced selling and travel expenses, partially offset by an increase in professional services expense.

Operating Income (Loss). Operating income was $564,055 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to an operating loss of $511,904 for the same period in 2020, an increase of $1,075,959, or 210%.

Other Income. Other income net of other expense was $13,945 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $19,494 for the same period in 2020, a decrease of $5,549, or 28%, primarily from reduced interest income on cash or cash equivalents.

Provision for Income Tax Benefit. Provision for income tax benefit was $77,163 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to an income tax benefit of $103,000 for the same period in 2020, a decrease of $25,837, or 25%. Provision (benefit) for income tax is estimated quarterly applying both federal and state tax rates.

Net Income (Loss). Net income was $655,163 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to a net loss of $389,410 for the same period in 2020, an increase of $1,044,573, or 268%. The fluctuations in net income (loss) relates to each respective section discussed above.

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization. Explanation and Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

Earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and before other non-operating costs and income (“EBITDA”) and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures. Adjusted EBITDA also includes non-cash stock option expense. Other companies may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently. The Company calculates its adjusted EBITDA to eliminate the impact of certain items it does not consider to be indicative of its performance and its ongoing operations. Adjusted EBITDA is presented herein because management believes the presentation of adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to the Company’s investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and because adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the Company’s industry, several of which present EBITDA and a form of adjusted EBITDA when reporting their results. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative for net income (loss), cash flows from operating activities and other income or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. A reconciliation of net loss to adjusted EBITDA is provided in the following table:

Liquidity and Capital Resources. Liquidity is the ability of an enterprise to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet its needs for cash requirements. The Company had $5,040,405 and $6,841,984 of cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Working capital was $10,778,357 and $10,269,397 as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Net cash used in operating activities was $1,748,428 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and net cash provided by operating activities was $723,364 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Net cash used in operating activities resulted primarily from increases in accounts receivable, inventory, and unbilled revenues, offset by increases in trade accounts payable, accrued compensation, and deferred revenues, as well as other changes in operating assets and liabilities.

Net cash used in investing activities was $48,205 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and net cash provided by investing activities was $974,916 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Investing activities in 2021 consisted of purchase of intangible assets, compared to investing activities in 2020 that consisted of redemptions of certificates of deposits, purchases of intangible assets and purchases of property and equipment.

Net cash used in financing activities was $4,946 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and net cash provided by financing activities was $3,522 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Financing activities in 2021 and 2020 consisted of stock options exercised and redeemed.

Bookings and Backlog

The Company defines bookings as the total of newly signed contracts and purchase orders received in a defined time period. The Company received bookings totaling $7.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The Company defines backlog as the accumulation of bookings that have not started or are uncompleted performance objectives and cannot be recognized as revenue until delivered in a future quarter. Backlog also includes extended warranty agreements and STEP agreements that are deferred revenue recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of each respective agreement. As of March 31, 2021, the Company’s backlog was $16.1 million. Management estimates the majority of the new bookings received in the first quarter of 2021 will be converted to revenue in 2021. Management estimates the conversion of backlog based on current contract delivery dates; however, contract terms and dates are subject to modification and are routinely changed at the request of the customer. Additionally, due to the impact of COVID-19, management’s estimates will change in accordance with federal and state guidelines. To date, the COVID-19 restrictions have resulted in reduced customer shipments and customer system installations. These recent developments are expected to result in lower recognized revenue and possibly lower gross margin when they occur. To date, there have been no order cancellations, only delays in when orders ship or installations occur and all delayed orders remain in backlog.

Cash Requirements

Our management believes that our current capital resources will be adequate to continue operating the company and maintaining our current business strategy for more than 12 months from the filing of this Quarterly Report. We are, however, open to raising additional funds from the capital markets, at a fair valuation, to expand our product and services offered, to enhance our sales and marketing efforts and effectiveness, and to aggressively take advantage of market opportunities. There can be no assurance, however, that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, if and when it is needed, we will be forced to scale down our plans for expanded marketing and sales efforts.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our unaudited condensed financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of our unaudited condensed financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to areas that require a significant level of judgment or are otherwise subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Significant accounting estimates in these financial statements include valuation assumptions for share-based payments, allowance for doubtful accounts and notes receivable, inventory reserves, accrual for warranty reserves, the carrying value of long-lived assets, income tax valuation allowances, the carrying value of cost basis investments, and the allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in our contracts with customers. We base our estimates on historical experience, our observance of trends in particular areas, and information or valuations and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances and which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that may not be readily apparent from other sources. Actual amounts could differ significantly from amounts previously estimated. For a discussion of our critical accounting policies, refer to Part I, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Management believes that there have been no changes in our critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 1 to our financial statements, included in Part I, Item 1., Financial Information of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2021, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. The term “off-balance sheet arrangement” generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with us is a party, under which we have any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest or a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Not required for smaller reporting companies.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e), promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our company’s reports filed under the Exchange Act 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, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated our company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that as of March 31, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. The ineffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was due to material weaknesses, which we identified in our report on internal control over financial reporting contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on March 29, 2021.

Change in internal control over financial reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarterly period ended March 31, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We believe that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within any company have been detected.
