The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s financial statements and accompanying notes.

Significant estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements include impairment consideration and valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, deferred tax valuation allowances, allowance for doubtful accounts, revenue recognition (including breakage revenue) and the fair value of stock options granted under the Company’s Equity compensation plan. Due to the inherent uncertainties involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be different from those estimates. ASC 718 establishes fair value as the measurement objective in accounting for equity payment arrangements and requires all companies to apply a fair-value based measurement method in accounting for all equity payment transactions with employees. The Company determined the fair value of these awards utilizing a Black-Scholes option pricing model.

The Company records its allowance for doubtful accounts based upon its assessment of various factors. The Company considers historical experience, the age of the accounts receivable balances, credit quality of the Company’s customers, current economic conditions and other factors that may affect customers’ ability to pay.

We classify as cash equivalents time deposits and other investments that are highly liquid and have maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase. Our cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash on deposits with banks and is maintained with major financial institutions in the United States. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000, however amounts may exceed FDIC insured limits.

Short-term investments include investments in U.S. treasury notes. Debt investments with original maturities at the date of purchase greater than approximately three months but less than a year are classified as short-term investments, as they represent the investment of cash available for current operations. All short-term investments that the company holds are classified as "held-to-maturity". See Note 3 for more detail and a breakdown of the company's short-term investments.

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be fully recoverable in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350 (“Intangibles – Goodwill and Other”) and ASC 360 (“Property, Plant and Equipment”). To determine recoverability of its long-lived assets, the Company evaluates the probability that future undiscounted net cash flows, without interest charges, will be less than the carrying amount of the assets. Impairment is measured at fair value.

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful lives ranging from three to seven-years using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are amortized utilizing the straight-line method over the lesser of the term of the lease or estimated useful life of the asset. See Note 4.

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in business combinations. Pursuant to ASC 350, the Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis in the fourth quarter, or between annual tests, in certain circumstances. Under authoritative guidance, the Company first assessed qualitative factors to determine whether it was necessary to perform step one of the quantitative goodwill impairment test. An entity is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. Events or changes in circumstances which could trigger an impairment review include macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors, overall financial performance, other entity specific events and sustained decrease in share price.

The Company performed its annual impairment test of goodwill in the fourth quarter for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 More detail about this is referenced in Note 5. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company determined no impairment charge was required.

Intangible assets include patents, copyrights, and developed technology. The Company amortizes these assets on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, as it represents the pattern of economic benefits consumed. The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be fully recoverable in accordance with ASC 360. To determine recoverability of its long-lived assets, the Company evaluates the probability that future undiscounted net cash flows, will be less than the carrying amount of the assets. There were no impairment charges recognized for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. See Note 5.

Most license fees and services revenue are generated from a combination of fixed-price and per-scan contracts. Under the per-scan revenue model, customers are charged a fee each time the customer scans an identity document, such as a driver’s license, with the Company’s software. Under the fixed-price revenue model customers are charged a fixed monthly fee either per device or physical business location to access the Company’s software. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. The Company measures revenue based on the consideration specified in a customer arrangement, and revenue is recognized when the performance obligations in an arrangement are satisfied. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct service to the customer. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when or as, the customer receives the benefit of the performance obligation. Customers typically receive the benefit of the Company’s services as they are performed. Substantially all customer contracts provide that the Company is compensated for services performed to date.

During 2021, the Company adopted an additional revenue model where customers purchase a predetermined number of transactions for the term of the contract. Revenue for these transactions is recognized on a per transaction basis. The Company estimates the amount of unused transactions at the end of each contract period and recognizes a portion of that revenue as breakage revenue each reporting period. If the Company expects the customer to use all transactions in the specified service period, the Company will recognize the transaction price as revenue in the specified service period as the promised units of service are transferred to the customer. Alternatively, if the Company expects that the customer cannot or will not use all transactions in the specified service period (referred to as “breakage”), the Company will recognize the estimated breakage amount as revenue ratably over the service period in proportion to the revenue that the Company will recognize for actual transactions used by the customer in the service period. Actual results could differ from estimates and as such differences may be material to the financial statements.

Software as a service (SaaS) for hosted subscription services allows customers to access a set of data for a predetermined period of time. As the customer obtains access at a point in time but continues to have access for the remainder of the subscription period, the customer is considered to simultaneously receive and consume the benefits provided by the entity’s performance as the entity performs. Accordingly, the revenue should be recognized over time, under the fixed pricing model, based on the usage of the hosted subscription services, which can vary from month to month. Under the per-scan revenue model, the customer requires access to our hosted subscription service but revenue is recognized each time the customer scans an identity document.

Revenue from the sale of equipment is recognized at a point in time. The point in time that the revenue is recognized is when the customer has control of the equipment which is when the customer receives the benefit and the Company’s performance obligation has been satisfied. Depending on the contract terms, that could either be at the time the equipment is shipped or at the time the equipment is received. When sales of equipment occur, we recognize shipping and handling costs with the sales of equipment that are recognized as revenue.

Other Revenues, which historically have not been material, consist primarily of revenues from other subscription and support services, and extended warranties. The Company’s revenues from other subscription and support services includes jurisdictional updates to certain commercial customers and support services particularly to its Defense ID® customers. These subscriptions require continuing service or post contractual customer support and performance. As the customer obtains access at a point in time but continues to have access for the remainder of the subscription period, the customer is considered to simultaneously receive and consume the benefits provided by the entity’s performance as the entity performs. Accordingly, the revenue should be recognized over time based on usage, which can vary from month to month. The revenue is typically based on a formula such as number of locations in a given month multiplied by a fee per location.

Extended warranty revenues are generated when a warranty is provided to the customer separately of other performance obligations when the equipment is sold. As the customer obtains access at a point in time and continues to have access for the remainder of the warranty term, the customer is considered to simultaneously receive and consume the benefits provided by the Company’s performance as the Company performs. The related revenue is recognized ratably over the specified term of the warranty period. The extended warranty is separate to the Company’s standard warranty of usually one year that it receives from its vendor.

The current portion of deferred revenue at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $906 and $1,266, respectively, and primarily consists of revenue that is recognized over time for software license contracts and hosted subscription services. The changes in these balances are related to the satisfaction or partial satisfaction of these contracts. The entire December 31, 2021, current deferred revenue balance was recognized as revenue in the year ended December 31, 2022. The noncurrent deferred revenue balances were $1 and $8 as of December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The Company’s shipping and handling costs related to sales are included in cost of revenues for all periods presented. All other shipping and handling costs are included as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses on the Statements of Operations.

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and net operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using expected tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are recognized subject to management’s judgment that realization is more likely than not. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance for its net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, due to the uncertainty of the realizability of those assets. See Note 8.

The Company adheres to the provisions of ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement” which requires the Company to calculate the fair value of financial instruments and include this additional information in the notes to financial statements when the fair value of those financial instruments is different than the book value. The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments approximated fair value, due to their short-term nature. Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement).

•Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments whose value is based on quoted market prices such as exchange-traded instruments and listed equities. The Company's Level 1

•Level 2—Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly (e.g., quoted prices of similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active). Level 2 includes financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. The Company had $54 and $378 of Level 2 liabilities as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 respectively, for the liability-classified stock options. The fair value of these awards were determined by utilizing a Black-Scholes option pricing model.

•Level 3—Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Financial instruments are considered Level 3 when the fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flows or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable. The Company had no Level 3 assets or liabilities as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Financial instruments, which subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash. The Company maintains cash with two financial institutions. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of these institutions.

The Company’s sales are principally made to large retail customers, financial institutions concentrated in the United States of America and to U.S. government entities. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations, generally does not require collateral, and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of customers, historical trends, and other information.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company made sales to three customers that accounted for approximately 52% of revenue, 22%, 17% and 13%, respectively. The revenue was associated with commercial identity sales customers. These three customers, in addition to one other customer, represented 63% of the Company’s December 31, 2022 accounts receivable balance. These four customers accounted for approximately 37%, 14%, 11% and 1%, respectively, of the Company's accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company had two customers that accounted for 55% of revenue; 38% and 17%, respectively and those same two customers, including one other customer together accounted for 65%; 31%, 12% and 22%, respectively, of its December 31, 2021 accounts receivable balance.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had four suppliers to produce its input devices. The Company has modified its software to operate in windows-based systems and can integrate with different hardware platforms that are readily available in the marketplace. The Company does not maintain a manufacturing facility of its own and is not dependent on maintaining its production relationships due to the flexibility of its software to run on multiple existing platforms.

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. The dilutive effect of these common stock equivalents comprising of outstanding options, warrants and restricted stock is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method.

The Company accounts for the issuance of equity awards to employees in accordance ASC 718 (“Stock Compensation”) and ASC 505 (“Equity”), which requires that the cost resulting from all equity payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. This pronouncement establishes fair value as the measurement objective in accounting for equity payment arrangements and requires all companies to apply a fair value-based measurement method in accounting for all equity payment transactions with employees and directors. All stock-based compensation expenses are included in operating expenses. The Company recognizes compensation expense related to equity grants on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. See Note 9.

The Company adheres to the provisions of ASC 280 (“Segment Reporting”), which establishes standards for the way public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in financial statements issued to shareholders. The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker, its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), reviews the financial information presented for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating its financial performance. Accordingly, the Company has

determined that it operates in a single reportable segment. All of the Company’s long-lived assets are located in the United States. Since the Company operates in one operating segment, all required financial segment information can be found in the financial statements.

Research and development expenses are expensed as incurred and consist primarily of employee-related expenses (such as salaries, taxes, benefits and stock-based compensation), allocated overhead costs and outside services costs related to the development and improvement of the Company's SaaS applications.
