authID INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
In the opinion of Management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which we considered as necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future periods or the full year.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of authID Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries MultiPay S.A.S., ID Solutions, Inc., FIN Holdings Inc., Ipsidy Enterprises Limited and Cards Plus Pty Ltd. and authID Gaming Inc. (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Going Concern
As of March 31, 2023, the Company had an accumulated
deficit of approximately $
The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from the Company’s stockholders and noteholders, the ability of the Company to obtain additional debt or equity financing to continue operations, the Company’s ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, successfully locating and negotiating with other business entities for potential acquisition, and acquiring new clients to generate revenues and cash flows.
The Company has secured additional financing of
$
There is no assurance that the Company will ever be profitable. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. As there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve positive cash flows (become cash flow profitable) and raise sufficient capital to maintain operations, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Reclassification
Certain prior year expenses have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the previously reported loss from continuing operations and management does not believe that this reclassification is material to the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. Specifically, we reclassified certain expenses from general and administrative expenses to research and development expenses.
6
Net Loss per Common Share
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options, using the treasury stock method, and convertible notes and stock warrants, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options, warrants and conversion of convertible notes. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. The following potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 because their effect was antidilutive:
| Security | 2023 | 2022 | ||||||
| Convertible notes payable | ||||||||
| Warrants | ||||||||
| Stock options | ||||||||
Revenue Recognition
Starting in the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company separately reports Verified software license revenue from Legacy authentication services revenue. Prior periods revenues are recast accordingly for comparison purposes.
Verified Software License – The Company recognizes revenue based on the identified performance obligations over the performance period for fixed consideration and /or variable fees generated that are earned on a usage fee based over time based on monthly user or transaction volumes or on a monthly flat fee rate. We allocate the selling price in a contract which has multiple performance obligations based on the contract selling price that we believe represents a fair market price for the service rendered based on estimated standalone selling price.
The Company had contract liabilities of approximately
$
As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any deferred contract costs or fees payable.
Legacy Authentication Services – The Company historically has sold certain legacy software licenses to customers and revenue is recognized when delivery occurs, and all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. During both quarters ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company provided annual software maintenance support services relating to previously licensed software on a stand-ready basis. These fees were billed in advance and recognized ratably over the requisite service period as revenue.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement - In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326),” which replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology for most financial assets with the current expected credit loss, or CECL, methodology. The series of new guidance amends the impairment model by requiring entities to use a forward-looking approach based on expected losses rather than incurred losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2023, which did not have a material impact to the financial statements.

for the due and punctual payment and performance of all obligations under the Initial Promissory Note, pledge and assign to Garchik a

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
authID Inc. is a leading provider of secure, authentication solutions delivered by our easy to integrate Verified platform. Our Verified platform that delivers Human Factor AuthenticationTM, binds strong passwordless authentication with biometric identity, which offers our customers a streamlined path to zero trust architecture. Verified FIDO2 passwordless authentication is certified by the FIDO Alliance to be compliant and interoperable with FIDO specifications.
The explosive growth in online and mobile commerce, telemedicine, remote working and digital activities of all descriptions is self-evident to everyone who lived through the Covid 19 pandemic since 2020. Identity theft, phishing attacks, spear-phishing, password vulnerabilities, account takeovers, benefits fraud - it seems like these words have entered our daily lexicon overnight. These are significant impediments to the operations and growth of any business or organization, and dealing with the risks and consequences of these criminal activities has created significant friction in both time, cost and lost opportunity. Consider all the outdated methods that organizations have implemented in order to prevent fraud. The requests to receive and enter one-time passwords, that can be easily hijacked. The vulnerable security questions you get asked – whether on-line or when reaching out to a call center – what was your first pet’s name? who was your best friend in high school? These steps all add up to friction, making it difficult for consumers to login, transact and execute daily tasks, with little added protection from fraud. Surely there is a better way to address these challenges? authID believes there is.
authID provides secure, facial biometric, identity verification, and strong customer authentication. We maintain a global, cloud-based Verified platform for our enterprise customers or employees to enable their users to easily verify and authenticate their identity through a mobile device or desktop (with camera) of their choosing (without requiring dedicated hardware, or authentication apps). We can help our customers establish a proven identity, creating a root of trust that ensures the highest level of assurance for our passwordless login and step-up verification products. Our system enables participants to consent to transactions using their biometric information with a digitally signed authentication response, embedding the underlying transaction data and each user’s identity attributes within every electronic transaction message processed through our platform.
Digital transformation across all market segments requires trusted identity. Our identity platform offers innovative solutions that are flexible, fast and easy to integrate and offer seamless user experiences. authID’s products help advance digital transformation efforts without the fear of identity fraud, while delivering frictionless user experiences. We believe that it is also essential that electronic transactions have an audit trail, proving that the identity of the individual was duly authenticated. Our platform provides biometric and multi-factor identity software, which are intended to establish, authenticate and verify identity across a wide range of use cases and electronic transactions.
authID’s products focus on the broad requirement for enabling frictionless commerce by allowing an entity to instantly “Recognise their Customer”, their Employee or their Member. Organizations of all descriptions require cost-effective and secure means of growing their business while mitigating identity fraud. We aim to offer our enterprise customers products that can be integrated easily into each of their business and organizational operations, in order to facilitate their adoption and enhance the end user customer experience.
Our management believes that some of the advantages of our Verified Platform approach are the ability to leverage the platform to support a variety of vertical markets and the adaptability of the platform to the requirements of new markets and new products requiring cost-effective, secure, and configurable mobile solutions. Our target markets include cybersecurity, workforce, banking, fintech and other disrupters of traditional commerce, small and medium sized businesses, and system integrators working with government and Fortune 1000 enterprises. At its core, the Company’s offering, combining its proprietary and acquired biometric and artificial intelligence technologies (or AI), is intended to facilitate frictionless commerce, whether in the physical or digital world. The Company intends to increase its investment in developing, patenting and acquiring the various elements necessary to enhance the platform, which are intended to allow us to achieve our goals. One of the principal intended areas of investment is to enhance and expand our use of artificial intelligence in proprietary software, that we believe will increase our value to enterprise customers and stockholders alike.
authID is dedicated to developing advanced methods of protecting consumer privacy and deploying ethical and socially responsible AI. authID is developing a culture that proactively encourages and rewards our employees for considering the ethical implications of our products. We believe that a proactive commitment to ethical AI presents a strong business opportunity for authID and will enable us to bring more accurate products to market more quickly and with less risk to better serve our global user base. Our methods to achieve ethical AI include engaging the users of our products with informed consent, prioritizing the security of our user’s personal information, considering and avoiding potential bias in our algorithms, and monitoring of algorithm performance in our applications.

The Company also owns an entity in Colombia, MultiPay. On May 4, 2022, the Board approved a plan to exit from certain non-core activities comprising the MultiPay correspondent bank, payments services in Colombia and the Cards Plus cards manufacturing and printing business in South Africa. On August 29, 2022 the Company completed the sale of Cards Plus business. See Discontinued Operations.
The Company was incorporated in the State of Delaware on September 21, 2011 and changed our name to authID Inc. on July 18, 2022.
Our Common Stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the trading symbol “AUID”. Our corporate headquarters have been relocated to 1385 S. Colorado Blvd., Building A Suite 322, Denver, CO 80222 and our main phone number remains as is (516) 274-8700. We maintain a website at www.authID.ai. The information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our websites is not incorporated by reference into this prospectus and is intended for informational purposes only.
Going Concern
The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report have been prepared in accordance with United States GAAP assuming the Company will continue on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next year following the issuance date of these financial statements.
As of March 31, 2023, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $145 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company earned revenue of approximately $0.04 million, used approximately $2.2 million to fund its operations, and incurred a net loss from continuing operations of approximately $5.3 million. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from the Company’s stockholders and noteholders, the ability of the Company to obtain additional debt or equity financing to continue operations, the Company’s ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, successfully locating and negotiating with other business entities for potential acquisition and /or acquiring new clients to generate revenues and cash flows.
There is no assurance that the Company will ever be profitable. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. As there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve positive cash flows (become cash flow profitable) and raise sufficient capital to maintain operations, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Adjusted EBITDA
This discussion includes information about Adjusted EBITDA that is not prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure is included below. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP net income (loss) adjusted to exclude (1) interest expense and debt discount and debt issuance costs amortization expense, (2) interest income, (3) provision for income taxes, (4) depreciation and amortization, (5) stock-based compensation expense (stock options and restricted stock) and (6) certain other items management believes affect the comparability of operating results. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with our results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provides useful information about our period-over-period results. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because management believes it provides additional information with respect to the performance of our fundamental business activities and is also frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of comparable companies. We also rely on Adjusted EBITDA as a primary measure to review and assess the operating performance of our company and our management, and it will be a focus as we invest in and grow the business. Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation from, or as a substitute for, analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
| ● | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; | |
| ● | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; | |
| ● | 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 include the impact of certain charges or gains resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations. |
18
Because of these limitations, adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only as a supplement to our GAAP results.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 – Continuing Operations
Revenues, net
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company’s revenues were approximately $38,000 compared to approximately $165,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2022, respectively. This decrease represented a significant drop in revenue from legacy authentication services due to the loss of a large customer that decommissioned a legacy product offering as of April 1, 2022.
General and administrative expenses
During the three months ended March 31, 2023 general and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $0.4 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 as we executed on the restructuring plan to reduce our operating costs, partially offset by increase in severance expenses.
Research and development expenses
During the three months periods ended March 31, 2023 compared to March 31, 2022, research and development expenses decreased by approximately $0.3 million as the Company executed on the restructuring plan to reduce its operating costs.
Depreciation and amortization expense
During the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to March 31, 2022, depreciation and amortization expense was approximately $0.1 and $0.2 million, respectively, less as the Company impaired the value of its intangible assets in 2022.
Interest and debt issuance costs amortization expense
Interest and debt issuance costs amortization expense increased during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2023 compared to March 31, 2022 by approximately $0.7 million as the Company issued $9.2 million Convertible Notes in March 2022 and the Company wrote off debt issuance costs of $0.4 million related to the Credit Facility as it was amended and restated in March 2023.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 – Discontinued operations
The Board of Directors of authID considers it in the best interests of the Company to focus its business activities on providing biometric identity verification products and services by means of our proprietary Verified platform. Accordingly, on May 4, 2022, the Board approved a plan to exit from certain non-core activities comprising the MultiPay correspondent bank, payment services in Columbia and the Cards Plus cards manufacturing and printing business in South Africa.
Cards Plus business in South Africa
On August 29, 2022, the Company completed the sale of Cards Plus business for a price of $300,000, less $3,272 in costs to sell, and recognized a loss of $188,247 from the transaction. Of the $300,000 gross proceeds, $150,000 was paid on closing and the remaining $150,000 is expected to be paid in a year, which is currently recorded in other current assets as of March 31, 2023.
MultiPay business in Colombia
The Company is exiting the MultiPay business in Colombia in an orderly fashion, honoring our obligations to employees, customers and under applicable laws and regulations. We plan to maintain our customer support and operations team in Bogota, which performs essential functions to support the global operations of our Verified product.
All impacted employees had left the Company and the Company also paid each employee their compensation entitlements and severance packages under the MultiPay retention plan and obligations under the appropriate statutes.
The Company is working with a major customer for the leasing and sale of certain MultiPay’s proprietary software. The transaction is expected to complete by June 30, 2023.
The financial statements of Cards Plus and MultiPay have been classified as discontinued operations as of June 30, 2022, as all required classification criteria under appropriate accounting guidance were met.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has approximately $1.6 million of cash on hand and approximately $0 million of working capital as of March 31, 2023.
Cash used in operating activities was approximately $2.2 million and $3.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2023 consisted of $0.5 million initial drawdown net of debt issuance costs on the Company’s amended and restated credit facility. Cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2022 was approximately $10.8 million which consisted of $8 million convertible notes net of debt discount and debt issuance costs and $3.1 million sale of common stock, net of offering costs.
There is no guarantee that our current business plan will not change, and as a result of such change, we will need additional capital to implement such business plan. Further, assuming we achieve our expected growth plan, of which there is no guarantee, we will need additional capital to implement growth beyond our current business plan.
Covid 19
Covid-19 emerged globally in December 2019, and it has been declared a pandemic. Covid-19 is still impacting customers, business, results and financial condition throughout the world. The Company’s day-to-day operations have been impacted differently depending on geographic location and services that are being performed. The Company cannot predict the potential impact of any future pandemics.
20
Ukraine
The ongoing war in Ukraine may impact the Company and its operations in a number of different ways, which are yet to be fully assessed and are therefore causing uncertainty. The Company works with third party sub-contractors for outsourced services, including software engineering and development, some of whom are based in Eastern Europe, including Ukraine. The Company also works with outsourced engineers and developers and third-party providers in other parts of the world, including the United States, Latvia and South America. While the continuing impact of this conflict and the response of the United States and other countries to it by means of trade and economic sanctions, or other actions is still unknown, any disruption of our ability to work with such contractors caused by this conflict could require the Company to seek alternative sub-contractors at short notice, which may give rise to additional costs and delays in delivering software and product upgrades.
The uncertainty impacting and potential interruption in energy and other supply chains resulting from military hostilities in Europe and the response of the United States and other countries to it by means of trade and economic sanctions, or other actions, may give rise to increases in costs of goods and services generally and may impact the market for our products as prospective customers reconsider additional capital expenditure, or other investment plans until the situation becomes clearer. On the other hand, the threat of increased cyber-attacks from Russia or other countries may prompt enterprises to adopt additional security measures such as those offered by the Company.
For so long as the hostilities continue and perhaps even thereafter as the situation in Europe unfolds, we may see increased volatility in financial markets which may make it more difficult for the Company to raise additional capital at the time when it needs to do so, or for financing to be available on acceptable terms. All or any of these risks separately, or in combination, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that 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 is deemed by our management to be material to investors.
Recent Accounting Policies
The recent material accounting policies that may be the most critical to understanding of the financial results and conditions are discussed in Note 1 of the unaudited financial statements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to include disclosure under this item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on the evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2023, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the report that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
21
PART II
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal or administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. While any litigation contains an element of uncertainty, we have no reason to believe the outcome of such proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Risk factors describing the major risks to our business can be found under Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, some of which are summarized at the beginning of this Quarterly Report. There has been no material change in our risk factors from those previously discussed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K. We operate in a business environment that is sensitive to political, economic and regulatory uncertainty, including with respect to cybersecurity and infrastructure investment, all of which may also be compounded by any future global impact from the COVID-19 pandemic, the continuing war in Ukraine and inflationary pressures, rising energy prices and increases in interest rates (see “Covid 19” and “Ukraine” above).
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
None.
ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
None.
ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES
Not applicable to our operations.
ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION
Annual Meeting
The 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders for the Company is tentatively scheduled to be held on June 26, 2023, which date is subject to change and is more than 30 days from the one year anniversary of the date on which the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders took place. The proxy rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 require the Company to inform stockholders of such change in date in addition to the new deadline for stockholder proposals in the Company’s earliest possible Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or, if impracticable, by any means reasonably calculated to inform stockholders. Accordingly, as previously reported on Form 8-K Current Report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 21, 2023, the Company has notified our stockholders that stockholder proposals for its 2023 Annual Meeting must be submitted to the Company no later than May 3, 2023 (which the Company determined to be a reasonable time before it expects to file its preliminary proxy with the Securities and Exchange Commission and begin to print and distribute its proxy materials prior to the Annual Meeting).
22
Engagement of Thomas R. Szoke
On April 12, 2023, the Company and Thomas R. Szoke, a director of the Company, entered an Offer Letter pursuant to which Mr. Szoke agreed to serve as Chief Technology Officer of the Company in consideration of an initial annual salary of $250,000. Mr. Szoke received an initial signing bonus of $20,833 and will be eligible for an annual target bonus of up to $200,000 based on performance milestones. For the period ending March 31, 2024, a bonus amount of $40,000 shall be payable upon the Company achieving increments of $1,000,000 in total contract value of all customer agreements less claw backs (“Bookings”) up to an aggregate of $5,000,000 in Bookings. For subsequent years, Mr. Szoke and the Compensation Committee of the Board will mutually agree as to the performance targets to earn for the annual bonus.
The vesting criteria of Mr. Szoke’s Stock Options to acquire 100,000 shares of common stock previously granted to Mr. Szoke on March 14, 2023 (the “Original Grant”) were amended pursuant to an Amended and Restated Stock Non-Statutory Option Agreement providing for vesting subject to achievement of performance and service conditions. All other terms of the Original Grant were not changed. Upon the Company being able to grant additional options under a stock incentive plan, it will make an additional grant of options to Mr. Szoke to acquire 400,000 shares of common stock for a period of ten years vesting subject to achievement of performance and service conditions (the “Additional Grant”). The exercise price of the options shall be equal to the closing price of the common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market on the date of such Additional Grant.
The employment of Mr. Szoke is at will and may be terminated at any time, with or without formal cause. The Company also entered an Executive Retention Agreement with Mr. Szoke, pursuant to which the Company agreed to provide specified severance and bonus amounts and to accelerate the vesting on his equity awards upon termination upon a change of control or an involuntary termination, as each term is defined in the agreement. In the event of a termination upon a change of control or an involuntary termination, Mr. Szoke is entitled to receive an amount equal to 100% of his base salary, the actual bonus earned but unpaid for the previous year and any bonus that was earned but unpaid prior to the termination date. Further, upon termination upon a change of control or an involuntary termination, the Company will reimburse Mr. Szoke for the cost of continuation of health coverage for Mr. Szoke and his eligible dependents pursuant to COBRA until the earlier of 12 months following the termination date, the date Mr. Szoke and his dependents are eligible for health coverage from a new employer or the date Mr. Szoke and his eligible dependents are no longer eligible for COBRA.
Nasdaq Notice
On April 4, 2023, the Company received a notice letter from the Listing Qualifications staff of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) (“Rule 5550(b)(1)”) as the Company’s stockholders’ equity of $283,536, as reported on the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2022, was below $2.5 million, which is the minimum stockholders’ equity required for compliance with Rule 5550(b)(1). Further, as of April 3, 2023, the Company did not meet the alternative compliance standards relating to the market value of listed securities, or net income from continuing operations. The Company is also not currently in compliance with the Nasdaq continued listing requirement that the Company maintain a bid price for the Company’s common stock of above $1.00 per share (the “Bid Price Requirement”).
The notice does not result in the immediate delisting of the Company’s common stock from the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company is currently evaluating options to regain compliance and intends to timely submit a plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum stockholders’ equity requirement.
23
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum stockholders’ equity requirement or maintain compliance with the other listing requirements. Nasdaq has provided the Company with 45-calendar days, or until May 19, 2023, to submit a plan to regain compliance. If Nasdaq accepts the Company’s plan, Nasdaq may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the date of the notice, or until October 1, 2023, for the Company to demonstrate compliance with Rule 5550(b)(1). If Nasdaq does not accept the Company’s plan, or if Nasdaq does not grant an extension until, and the Company does not regain compliance by, October 1, 2023, or if the Company fails to satisfy another Nasdaq requirement for continued listing such as the Bid Price Requirement, Nasdaq could provide notice that the Company’s securities will become subject to delisting. In such event, Nasdaq rules permit the Company to request a hearing before an independent Hearings Panel, which has the authority to grant the Company an additional extension of time of up to 180 calendar days to regain compliance.
Engagement of Rhoniel A. Daguro
On March 23, 2023, the Company and Rhoniel A. Daguro, a director of the Company, entered an Offer Letter pursuant to which Mr. Daguro agreed to serve as Chief Executive Officer of the Company in consideration of an initial annual salary of $400,000. Mr. Daguro will be eligible for an annual target bonus of up to $375,000 based on performance milestones. For the period ending March 31, 2024, a bonus amount of $75,000 shall be payable upon the Company achieving increments of $1,000,000 in total contract value of all customer agreements less claw backs (“Bookings”) up to an aggregate of $5,000,000 in Bookings. For subsequent years, Mr. Daguro and the Compensation Committee of the Board will mutually agree as to the performance targets to earn for the annual bonus.
On April 10, 2023 the Company provided Mr. Daguro with an initial grant of options (“Initial Grant”) to purchase 2,455,000 shares of common stock for a period of ten years vesting subject to achievement of performance and service conditions, at an exercise price of $0.397. Upon the Company being able to grant additional options under a stock incentive plan, it will make an additional grant of options to Mr. Daguro to acquire 1,115,000 shares of common stock for a period of ten years vesting subject to achievement of performance and service conditions (the “Additional Grant”). The exercise price of the options shall be equal to the closing price of the common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market on the date of such Additional Grant. If and to the extent that the exercise price under the Additional Grant is higher than the exercise price under the Initial Grant, the Company shall determine the incremental cost of the Additional Grant by deducting the exercise price of the Initial Grant from the exercise price of the Additional Grant and multiplying the difference by 1,115,000 (the “Difference”). The Difference shall be payable by the Company to Mr. Daguro as a bonus payable upon exercise of options comprised in the Additional Grant, by way of offset against the exercise price of such options to the extent of the total exercise price of the options being exercised at that time. To the extent that the entire Difference cannot be applied to any particular exercise, the balance shall be carried forward and applied to future exercises of the Additional Grant. In lieu of agreeing to pay the bonus, the Company may in its sole discretion elect to grant Mr. Daguro an additional 350,000 shares of common stock as part of the Additional Grant (for a total of 1,465,000 shares of common stock under the Additional Grant).
The employment of Mr. Daguro is at will and may be terminated at any time, with or without formal cause. The Company also entered an Executive Retention Agreement with Mr. Daguro, pursuant to which the Company agreed to provide specified severance and bonus amounts and to accelerate the vesting on his equity awards upon termination upon a change of control or an involuntary termination, as each term is defined in the agreement. In the event of a termination upon a change of control or an involuntary termination, Mr. Daguro is entitled to receive an amount equal to 100% of his base salary, the actual bonus earned but unpaid for the previous year and any bonus that was earned but unpaid prior to the termination date. Further, upon termination upon a change of control or an involuntary termination, the Company will reimburse Mr. Daguro for the cost of continuation of health coverage for Mr. Daguro and his eligible dependents pursuant to COBRA until the earlier of 12 months following the termination date, the date Mr. Daguro and his dependents are eligible for health coverage from a new employer or the date Mr. Daguro and his eligible dependents are no longer eligible for COBRA.

Separation – Thomas Thimot
On March 23, 2023, the Company and Thomas Thimot entered into a Confidential Separation Agreement and General Release for the purposes of separation of Mr. Thimot from the Company as Chief Executive Officer and an employee by mutual consent and settling, compromising and resolving all claims between them. Mr. Thimot’s resignation was effective March 23, 2023. In addition to the Company paying all accrued but unpaid salary and providing reimbursement for all outstanding expenses, the Company has agreed to pay Mr. Thimot $325,000 which shall be deferred until the earlier of April 1, 2025 and a change of control of the Company and is subordinated to the initial advance in the amount of $900,000 made pursuant to the Amended & Restated Facility Agreement entered into as of March 8, 2023 between the Company and Stephen Garchik, as well as to all present and future secured indebtedness of the Company under the Senior Convertible Notes issued by the Company as of March 21, 2022 and pursuant to such Facility Agreement. Mr. Thimot will also be eligible for certain health benefits. The exercise period with respect to Mr. Thimot’s stock option to acquire 262,500 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $7.20 per share was extended through March 23, 2027. All unvested grants or other equity awards lapsed and are no longer exercisable as of the separation date.
Garchik Facility Agreement
On March 21, 2022, the Company entered into a Facility Agreement with Stephen J. Garchik, who was and is a shareholder of the Company (“Garchik”), pursuant to which Garchik agreed to provide to the Company a $10.0 million unsecured standby line of credit facility that could be drawn down in several tranches, subject to certain conditions described in the Facility Agreement (the “Original Facility Agreement”). Pursuant to the Original Facility Agreement, the Company paid Garchik a facility commitment fee of 100,000 shares of our common stock (the “Facility Commitment Fee”) upon the effective date of the Original Facility Agreement.
On March 8, 2023, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Facility Agreement with Garchik, pursuant to which the Company and Garchik amended and restated the Original Facility Agreement in its entirety (the “A&R Facility Agreement”), to replace the credit facility contemplated by the Original Facility Agreement with (i) an initial credit facility to the Company in an amount of $900,000 (the “Initial Funding”) and (ii) the parties to use their reasonable best efforts after the Initial Funding to negotiate the terms of a subsequent credit facility in the aggregate amount of $2,700,000 (the “Subsequent Funding”).
On March 9, 2023, pursuant to the A&R Facility Agreement, the Company entered into a promissory note in favor of Garchik (the “Initial Promissory Note”), pursuant to which Garchik loaned $900,000 (the “Principal Amount”) to the Company. At the same time, as a condition to Garchik providing the Principal Amount, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries, ID Solutions, Inc., FIN Holdings, Inc. and Innovation in Motion, Inc. (the “Guarantors”) entered into a guaranty of the Initial Promissory Note with Garchik (the “Guaranty”).
A&R Facility Agreement
Under the A&R Facility Agreement, Garchik agreed to provide the Initial Funding to the Company upon receipt of a fully executed Initial Promissory Note and an executed Release Agreement relating to the Original Facility Agreement (the “Release Agreement”). The Company and Garchik have agreed to use reasonable best efforts to negotiate the terms of the Subsequent Funding, and the A&R Facility Agreement will terminate if definitive documentation for the Subsequent Funding is not entered into before July 1, 2023, for any reason other than breach of a party’s obligations.
While the terms of the Subsequent Funding are subject to due diligence and final documentation, a summary of selected terms of the proposed financing is attached to the A&R Facility Agreement as Exhibit B thereto. The Subsequent Funding would be a $2,700,000 secured note facility with a 12% per annum interest rate, paid in kind, capitalized and added to the balance of the loan on a quarterly basis, calculated on a 360-day year basis, on the outstanding aggregate balance of the Subsequent Facility. The Subsequent Facility will mature twenty-four (24) months after effectiveness. Garchik will be granted a fully perfected, non-avoidable, first-priority security interest and lien on all assets of the Company. The Subsequent Facility would be the senior obligation of the Company and will rank senior in right to payment of the obligations under the existing Senior Secured Convertible Notes entered into between the Company and certain noteholders on March 21, 2022 (the “Convertible Notes”) and the liens granted in connection with the Subsequent Facility shall rank pari passu with the liens granted to holders of the Convertible Notes. Pursuant to this, the Company will use reasonable best efforts to obtain the consent of two-thirds of the holders of Convertible Notes.
25
In satisfaction of a condition precedent to the Initial Funding under the A&R Facility Agreement, Thomas L. Thimot, Phillip L. Kumnick, Philip R. Broenniman, Michael A. Gorriz and Neepa Patel, comprising all directors of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board of Directors”) other than Joseph Trelin, Michael L. Koehneman and Jacqueline L. White (the “Remaining Directors”), delivered to the Company executed resignation letters in escrow (the “Board Resignation Letters”) that became effective as of the Initial Funding. Also in satisfaction of a condition precedent to the Initial Funding under the A&R Facility Agreement, on March 9, 2023, the Board of Directors appointed Joseph Trelin to the Company’s Compensation and Audit Committees, effective as of the Initial Funding.
The A&R Facility Agreement also provided Garchik with the right to nominate four (4) designees (not counting any Remaining Directors) (the “New Designees”) to be considered for election to the Board of Directors (the “Nomination Right”). In satisfaction of a condition precedent to the Initial Funding under the A&R Facility Agreement, the Board of Directors appointed four (4) New Designees to the Board, effective as of the Initial Funding.
Initial Promissory Note
Interest accrues on the Principal Amount until paid in full at a per annum rate equal to 15%, computed on the basis of a 360-day year and twelve 30-day months, payable in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year commencing March 31, 2023 or the first business day following each such date if any such date falls on a day which is not a business day, in cash. The Principal Amount shall mature on March 31, 2025.
The Company made standard (i) affirmative covenants to Garchik, including, but not limited to, in regard to its existence, payment obligations, business activities, financial information and use of proceeds and (ii) negative covenants to Garchik, including, but not limited to, in regard to the rank of indebtedness, incurrence of indebtedness, maintenance of insurance and properties, transactions with affiliates and disposition of assets.
While the Initial Promissory Note is unsecured, in the event of either (I) the conversion of the Convertible Notes of all amounts outstanding thereunder and the release of all liens over the Company’s assets granted by and through the Transaction Documents (as defined in the Convertible Notes) or (II) receipt of the consent of the requisite holders of the Convertible Notes, in each case, the Company will, as collateral security for the due and punctual payment and performance of all obligations under the Initial Promissory Note, pledge and assign to Garchik a first-priority, continuing security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company, subject to exclusions consistent with those contained in the Transaction Documents. The Company has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to deliver to Garchik an amendment to the Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 21, 2022 (the “SPA”), pursuant to which the Convertible Notes were purchased, permitting the grant of that collateral security to Garchik. Upon the grant of that collateral security, interest will accrue on the outstanding Principal Amount under the Initial Promissory Note at a per annum rate equal to 12%.
The Initial Promissory Note includes customary Events of Default, including, among other things, (i) failing to make payment of any of the Principal Amount or interest due and such failure continues for not less than 5 business days without being cured; (ii) any representation or warranty in the Initial Promissory note being untrue in any material respect and such failure continuing for a period of not less than 5 business days without being cured; or (iii) the Initial Promissory Note shall for any reason cease to be, or shall be asserted by the Company or any affiliate thereof not to be, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company. Upon an Event of Default, Garchik can declare all outstanding amounts under the Initial Promissory Note due, along with any accrued interest.
26
Guaranty
In connection with the Company and Garchik entering into the Initial Promissory Note, each Guarantor of the Company agreed to, for the benefit and security of Garchik, guarantee the payment and performance all of the Company’s obligations under the Initial Promissory Note and the Guaranty.
Release Agreement
In connection with the A&R Facility Agreement, on March 9, 2023, the Company and Garchik entered into the Release Agreement, pursuant to which the Company and Garchik mutually agreed to release any and all rights to make a claim against the other and any existing claims against the other arising out of or relating to the Original Facility Agreement.
Board of Directors
On March 6, 2023, Mr. Thimot tendered his resignation as Chief Executive Officer to the Company, which became effective upon the appointment of his successor on March 23, 2023. Before the A&R Facility Agreement was entered into, Mr. Thimot, Phillip L. Kumnick, Philip R. Broenniman, Michael A. Gorriz and Neepa Patel (the “Retiring Directors”) tendered their resignations from the Board of Directors of the Company which became effective upon the Initial Funding. The Company thanks the Retiring Directors for their dedicated service to the Company.
On March 9, 2023, the Board of Directors appointed Joseph Trelin to the Company’s Compensation and Audit Committees.
Pursuant to the Nomination Right under the A&R Facility Agreement, Mr. Garchik nominated Mr. Daguro, Ken Jisser, Michael Thompson and Thomas Szoke for appointment to the Board of Directors. On March 9, 2023, the Board of Directors appointed Messrs. Daguro, Jisser, Thompson and Szoke as additional directors of the Company (the “Additional Directors”) and reduced the size of the Board of Directors from 8 directors to 7 directors, with effect from the resignations of the Retiring Directors. Under the terms of the A&R Facility Agreement, the Nomination Right expired upon the appointment of the four (4) Additional Directors to the Board of Directors.
2023 Budget – Labor Reduction Plan
On February 14, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors resolved to implement a revised budget for 2023 in order to reduce expenses and cash requirements and as part of such revised budget decided to re-balance staffing levels to better align with the evolving needs of the Company (the “Labor Reduction Plan”). Under the Labor Reduction Plan, 12 employees and 6 contractors have left the Company. The Company has also given termination notice to certain vendors and contractors that provide services to the Company.
Cecil N. Smith III
On February 15, 2023 Cecil N. Smith III ceased to be an employee, and the President and Chief Technology Officer of the Company pursuant to the Labor Reduction Plan.
