CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
All statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that address events, developments, or results that we expect or anticipate may occur in the future are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, Section 21E of the Exchange Act and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “project,” “forecast,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “seeks,” “scheduled,” or “will,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements relate to future periods, future events or our future operating or financial plans or performance, are made on the basis of management’s current views and assumptions with respect to future events, including management’s current views regarding the likely impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, supply chain constraints from current economic conditions, record inflation and the conflict in Ukraine. Any forward-looking statement is not a guarantee of future performance and actual results could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statement. We operate in a changing environment where new risks emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all risks that may affect us, particularly those associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and the conflict in Ukraine, which have had wide-ranging and continually evolving effects. The forward-looking statements, as well as our prospects as a whole, are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, without limitation:
| ● | Our future capital requirements; | |
| ● | our ability to raise capital and utilize sources of cash; | |
| ● | our ability to generate sufficient revenue to cover our operating expenses and to continue to operate with a working capital deficiency; | |
| ● | our ability to service our obligations and to obtain funding for our operations; | |
| ● | the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia has affected and may continue to affect our business; | |
| ● | competition and our ability to counter competition, including changes to the algorithms of Google and other search engines and related impacts on our revenue and advertisement expenses; | |
| ● | the impact on our business of macro-economic factors including discretionary spending pressure due to inflation and low savings rates that impact consumer sentiment; | |
| ● | the impact of health epidemics, including the COVID-19 pandemic, on our business and the actions we may take in response thereto; | |
| ● | disruptions in the supply chain and associated impacts on demand, product availability, order cancellations and cost of goods sold including the economic impacts of record inflation; | |
| ● | difficulties in managing our international business operations, particularly in Ukraine, including with respect to enforcing the terms of our agreements with our contractors and managing increasing costs of operations; | |
| ● | changes in our strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenue and losses, product pricing, projected costs, prospects and plans; | |
| ● | the outcome of actual or potential litigation, complaints, product liability claims, or regulatory proceedings, and the potential adverse publicity related thereto; |
ii
| ● | the implementation, market acceptance and success of our business model, expansion plans, opportunities, and initiatives, including the market acceptance of our planned products and services; | |
| ● | developments and projections relating to our competitors and industry; | |
| ● | our expectations regarding our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection and not infringe on the rights of others; | |
| ● | our ability to maintain and enforce intellectual property rights and our ability to maintain our technology position; | |
| ● | changes in applicable laws or regulations; | |
| ● | the effects of current and future U.S. and foreign trade policy and tariff actions; | |
| ● | disruptions in the marketplace for online purchases of aftermarket auto parts; | |
| ● | costs related to operating as a public company; and | |
| ● | the possibility that we may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors. |
See also the section titled “Risk Factors” (refer to Part I, Item 1A of this report), and subsequent reports and registration statements filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), for further discussion of certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from our forward-looking statements. Readers of this report are cautioned not to rely on these forward-looking statements, since there can be no assurance that these forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we expressly disclaim any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 – Organization and Description of Business
Description of Business
PARTS iD, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company,”
“PARTS iD,” “we” “our” or “us”), is a technology-driven, digital commerce company focused
on creating custom infrastructure and unique user experience within niche markets.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars and have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and as amended by Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The December 31, 2022 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. Results for interim periods should not be considered indicative of results for any other interim period or for the full year.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PARTS iD, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary PARTS iD, LLC. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
6
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Critical accounting estimates are estimates for which (a) the nature of the estimate is material due to the level of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change and (b) the impact of the estimate on financial condition or operating performance is material. The Company’s critical accounting estimates and assumptions affecting the financial statements include revenue recognition, return allowances, allowance for credit losses, depreciation, inventory valuation, valuation of deferred income tax assets and the capitalization and recoverability of software development costs.
Stock Compensation
Compensation expense related to stock option awards and restricted stock units granted to certain employees, directors and consultants is based on the fair value of the awards on the grant date. If the service inception date precedes the grant date, accrual of compensation cost for periods before the grant date is based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date. In the period in which the grant date occurs, cumulative compensation cost is adjusted to reflect the cumulative effect of measuring compensation cost based on fair value at the grant date rather than the fair value previously used at the service inception date or any subsequent reporting date. Forfeitures are recorded as they occur. The Company recognizes compensation cost related to time-vested options and restricted stock units with graded vesting features on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Compensation cost related to performance-vesting options and performance-based units, where a performance condition or a market condition that affects vesting exists, is recognized over the shortest of the explicit, implicit, or defined service periods. Compensation cost is adjusted depending on whether the performance condition is achieved. If the achievement of the performance condition is probable or becomes probable, the full fair value of the award is recognized. If the achievement of the performance condition is not probable or ceases to be probable, then no compensation cost is recognized or amounts previously recognized are reversed.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that expose the Company
to a concentration of credit risk principally include cash and accounts receivable balances. The Company has significant cash balances
at financial institutions which throughout the year regularly exceed the federally insured limit of $
Going Concern
These condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with GAAP assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The going concern assumption contemplates
the realization of assts and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have operated with a negative working capital
model since our inception. The Company has a working capital deficiency of approximately $
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue to operate as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business, and does not reflect 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 from uncertainty related to our ability to continue as a going concern.
To address liquidity concerns, the Company is
pursuing additional financing and continues to restructure and optimize its operations including moderating capital investments, improving
gross margin, reducing expenses, and renegotiating vendor payment terms. In addition, to address its liquidity needs, the Company recently
obtained an aggregate of (i) $
PARTS iD has also retained Canaccord Genuity Group, Inc. (“Canaccord”) as its financial advisor and DLA Piper LLP (US) as its legal counsel to assist in evaluating potential strategic alternatives.
There can be no assurance that the evaluation of strategic alternatives will result in any potential transaction, or any assurance as to its outcome or timing. PARTS iD has not set a timetable for completion of the process and does not intend to disclose developments related to the process unless and until PARTS iD executes a definitive agreement with respect thereto, or the Board otherwise determines that further disclosure is appropriate or required.
7
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable balances include amounts due from customers. The Company periodically reviews its accounts receivable balances to determine whether an allowance for credit losses is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts, historical occurrences of credit losses, existing economic conditions, and other circumstances that may indicate that the realization of an account is in doubt. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the Company determined that an allowance for credit losses was not necessary.
Inventory
Inventory consists of purchased goods that are
immediately available-for-sale and are stated at the lower cost or net realizable value, determined using the first-in first-out method.
Merchandise-in-transit directly from suppliers to customers is recorded in inventory until the product is delivered to the customer.
As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, merchandise-in-transit amounted to $
Other Current Assets
Other current assets include advances to vendors
amounting to $
Website and Software Development
The Company capitalizes certain costs associated with website and software developed for internal use in accordance with ASC 350-50, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Website Development Costs, and ASC 350-40, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal Use Software, when both the preliminary project design and the testing stage are completed and management has authorized further funding for the project, which it deems probable of completion and to be used for the function intended. Capitalized costs include amounts related to website and software development such as contractors’ fees, payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with and who devote time to the internal-use software project. Capitalization of such costs ceases when the project is complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalized costs are amortized over a three-year period commencing on the date that the specific module or platform is placed in service. Costs incurred during the preliminary stages of development and ongoing maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist of indefinite-lived domain names and are stated at cost less impairment losses, if any. The Company reviews its intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the intangible asset may not be recoverable. When such events occur, the Company compares the carrying amount of the asset to the undiscounted expected future cash flows related to the asset. If the comparison indicates that an impairment exists, the amount of the impairment is calculated as the difference between the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset. The Company has determined that there were no triggering events in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, and no impairment charges were necessary.
During the first quarter of 2023 the Company
sold its Onyx.com domain name for $
8
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of property and equipment is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
| Asset Class | Estimated useful lives | |
| Video and studio equipment | ||
| Website and internally developed software | ||
| Computer and electronics | ||
| Vehicles | ||
| Furniture and fixtures | ||
| Leasehold improvements |
Accounts Payable
Accounts payable as of March 31, 2023, consisted
of amounts payable to vendors of $
Revenue Recognition
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”). This standard replaced all previous accounting guidance on this topic, eliminated all industry-specific guidance and provided a unified model to determine how revenue is recognized. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard requires companies to use more judgment and make more estimates than under prior guidance. Judgments include identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of consideration to include in the transaction price, and allocating the transaction price to each performance obligation.
In determining the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under its agreements, the Company performs the following steps: (i) identifies contracts with customers; (ii) identifies performance obligation(s); (iii) determines the transaction price; (iv) allocates the transaction price to the performance obligation(s); and (v) recognizes revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.
The Company recognizes revenue on product sales through its website as the principal in the transaction as the Company has concluded it controls the product before it is transferred to the customer. The Company controls products when it is the entity responsible for fulfilling the promise to the customer and takes responsibility for the acceptability of the goods, assumes inventory risk from shipment through the delivery date, has discretion in establishing prices, and selects the suppliers of products sold.
Sales discounts earned by customers at the time of purchase and taxes collected
from customers, which are remitted to governmental authorities, are deducted from gross revenue in determining net revenue. Allowances
for sales returns are estimated and recorded based on historical experience and reduce product revenue, inclusive of shipping fees, by
expected product returns. Allowances for sales returns at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, were $
The Company has two types of contractual liabilities:
(a) amounts received from customers prior to the delivery of products are recorded as customer deposits in the accompanying condensed
consolidated balance sheets and are recognized as revenue when the products are delivered, which amounted to $
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold consists of the cost of product sold to customers, plus shipping and handling costs and shipping supplies, net of vendor rebates.
9
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The
Company incurred $
Income Taxes
The Company is a C corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to temporary 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 enacted tax rates for years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced by the amount of any tax benefit that, based on available evidence, is not expected to be realized, and a corresponding allowance is established. The current income tax provision reflects the tax consequences of revenues and expenses currently taxable or deductible on the Company’s various income tax returns for the reporting year.
ASC 740 also provides guidance on the accounting for uncertain tax positions recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. Based on the Company’s evaluation, management concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company files U.S. federal and State of New Jersey tax returns and had no unrecognized tax benefits at March 31 ,2023 and December 31, 2022.
The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such expenses as a component of income tax expense. There were no amounts accrued for penalties or interest as of or during the quarters ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. Management is currently unaware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or material deviations from its filing positions.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
For the quarters ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, basic net loss per common share was determined by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. For purposes of calculating diluted net loss per common share, the denominator includes both the weighted average common shares outstanding and the number of common stock equivalents if the inclusion of such common stock equivalents would be dilutive. Dilutive common stock equivalents potentially include performance-based stock units and unvested restricted stock units using the treasury stock method. For all periods presented, there is no difference in the number of shares used to compute basic and diluted net loss per common share due to the Company’s net loss.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires an “incurred loss” methodology for recognizing credit losses that delays recognition until it is probable that a loss has been incurred. This ASU is effective for smaller reporting companies for years beginning January 1,2023. The Company adopted Topic 326 on January 1, 2023, and the adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
10
Certain Significant Risks and Uncertainties
In February 2022, the Russian Federation launched a full-scale invasion against Ukraine, and sustained conflict and disruption in the region is ongoing. The Company’s engineering and product data development team as well as back office and part of its customer service center are in Ukraine. The Company’s ability to maintain adequate liquidity for its operations is dependent upon several factors, including its revenue and earnings, the impacts of COVID-19 and Russian-Ukraine conflict on macroeconomic conditions, and its ability to take further cost savings and cash conservation measures if necessary. The Russian-Ukraine conflict could have a material adverse effect upon the Company.
Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no significant changes from the significant accounting policies disclosed in Note 2 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (our “2022 Form 10-K”).

The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements about our plans and expectations of what may happen in the future. Forward-looking statements are based on a number of assumptions and estimates that are inherently subject to significant risks and uncertainties, and our results could differ materially from the results anticipated by our forward-looking statements as a result of many known or unknown factors, including, but not limited to, those factors discussed in the section “Risk Factors” included in our 2022 Form 10-K. See also the “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” set forth at the beginning of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Overview
PARTS iD, Inc. (the “Company”) is a technology-driven, digital commerce company on a mission to transform the U.S. automotive aftermarket and the adjacent complex parts markets we serve by providing customers a differentiated customer experience with advanced product search capabilities, proprietary product options, exclusive shop by service type functionality, visually inspired browsing, easy product discovery, rich custom content, an exhaustive product catalog and competitive prices.
The Company delivers this customer experience vision using our purpose-built technology platform and user interface (UI), proprietary parts and accessories fitment data with more than fourteen billion product and fitment data points powered with machine learning, and a comprehensive product catalog spanning approximately eighteen million parts and accessories, when fully available, from over one thousand suppliers we partner with across eight verticals.
The Company’s technology platform integrates software engineering with catalog management, data intelligence, mining, and analytics, along with user interface development which utilizes distinctive rules-based parts fitment software capabilities. To manage the ever-growing need for accurate product and parts data, we use cutting-edge computational and software engineering techniques, including Bayesian classification, to enhance and improve data records and product information, and ultimately to contribute to the overall development of a rich and engaging user experience. Furthermore, our technology platform is designed to support much more than just car parts and accessories. We believe that we have demonstrated the flexibility and scalability of our technology by launching seven adjacent verticals, including BOATiD.com, MOTORCYCLEiD.com, CAMPERiD.com, and others in August 2018, all of which leverage the same proprietary technology platform and data architecture.
There are several key competitive strengths that management believes highlight the attractiveness of the Company’s platform business model and underscore how PARTS iD, Inc. is differentiated from its competition, including:
| 1. | The Company’s distinctive technology, customer-first UI, and proprietary fitment data enables a differentiated shopping experience for the automotive parts consumer. Unlike any other consumer product category, we believe that the success or failure of selling automotive parts, and especially aftermarket accessories at scale, comes down to rich and comprehensive fitment data. We believe that the Company has been successful at developing its own proprietary fitment database which is not licensed for use to any other person or entity. |
| 2. | We believe that the Company’s product catalog of approximately eighteen million products, when fully available, and approximately forty-five hundred brands is unrivaled. Our comprehensive catalog is enriched with approximately fourteen billion data points, advanced 3D imagery, in-depth product descriptions, customer reviews, installation, and fitment guides, as well as other rich custom content specifically catering to the needs of the automotive aftermarket industry and is further complemented by our highly trained and specialized customer service. |
The Company’s proprietary and asset-light fulfillment model is enabled by a network of hundreds of suppliers with whom we have cultivated relationships with and integrated over the last fifteen years. This has enabled us to further scale our catalog size and to add adjacent verticals which allows us to offer a broader array of product lines over our competitors. Furthermore, our geo-sourcing fulfillment algorithm factors in real-time inventory when available, customer proximity, shipping cost, and profitability to optimize product sourcing. This algorithmic approach allows us to increase fill rate and delivery speed. |
18
| 3. | The Company’s differentiated customer experience is a result of rich content, wide product range with ease of selection, proprietary fitment data, and highly trained customer service representatives, providing a data-driven engagement platform for discovery and inspiration. This is demonstrated by: |
| a. | the Company’s Net Promoter Score continues to be between 60 – 70 despite the global supply chain disruptions (primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic) which began in 2021 and continues today; |
| b. | the Company’s overall product return rate across all eight verticals is consistently within the range of 5 - 6%; and |
| c. | repeat customer revenue was 34% of total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2022. |
The Company has invested sixteen years in building its proprietary platform and we believe that our investment in technology and data has allowed us to expand into adjacent verticals, leveraging a capital-efficient just-in-time inventory model to offer our consumers an extensive selection and customer experience.
During 2022, we took several measures to reduce operating costs, including reducing advertising expenses, general and administrative overhead, and capital expenditures. In June 2022, we took steps to reduce our costs by reducing our employment base in the United States, and reducing our independent contractors in Ukraine, the Philippines, and Costa Rica, and by reducing other operating expenses. The employees and independent contractors affected by this reduction were informed of the Company’s decision beginning in June 2022. The annualized savings from the measures described above were approximately $12 million. Additionally, in October 2022, the Company successfully negotiated a new shipping contract that will yield more than 15% in lower outbound shipping rates. The shipping cost reduction is expected to reduce shipping losses and the cost of delivery to customers. In the first quarter of 2023, the Company took additional reductions in its advertising expense by approximately 77%, its US-based salaries by approximately 55%, and outside contractor costs by approximately 35%. These reductions were made in order to bring the cost structure of the Company in line with the current business environment.
Russian-Ukrainian Conflict
The Russian invasion of Ukraine and resulting response from several nations have impacted, and are expected to continue to impact, our business in the near term. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has elevated global geopolitical tensions and security concerns as well as having recently created some inflationary pressures. Our engineering and product data development team as well as back office and part of its customer service center are located in Ukraine. Therefore, the conflict in Ukraine could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. While the conflict has not caused significant disruptions to our operations to date, it could have a material adverse effect upon the Company in future periods.
Since the onset of the active conflict in February 2022, most of our contractors have been able to continue their work, although at a reduced capacity and/or schedule.
Our websites and call centers have continued to function but could be more negatively impacted in the future. Many of our contractors have moved outside of Ukraine to neighboring countries where they continue to work remotely. Some of our contractors who have remained in Ukraine have moved to other areas in Ukraine, but their ability to continue work is subject to significant uncertainty and potential disruptions.
The situation in Ukraine is complex and continues to evolve. We cannot provide any assurance that our outsourced teams in Ukraine will be able to provide efficient and uninterrupted services, which could have an adverse effect on our operations and business. In addition, our ability to maintain adequate liquidity for our operations is dependent on several factors, including our revenue and earnings, which could be significantly impacted by the conflict in Ukraine. Further, any major breakdown or closure of utility services, any major threat to civilians or any international banking disruption could materially impact the operations and liquidity of the Company. We will continue monitoring the military, social, political, regulatory, and economic environment in Ukraine and Russia, and will consider further actions as appropriate.

Revenue
Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023, decreased by $78.7 million, or 82.9%, compared to the same prior year period, primarily attributable to supply chain disruptions and the lack of product availability as a result of our liquidity squeeze which peaked in early February and led to vendors not giving us access to their full product catalog. Compared to the same prior year period, traffic declined by 61.4% in the three-month period ended March 31, 2023, the site conversion rate decreased by 53.2% and average order value increased by 8.6%.
We believe that the decrease in traffic and the site conversion rate was primarily attributed to lower orders because of product unavailability, supply chain interruptions, reduction in discretionary spending and a significant reduction in advertising spending by the Company.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold is composed of product cost, the associated fulfillment and handling costs charged by vendors, if any, and shipping costs. In the three months ended March 31, 2023, cost of goods sold decreased by $63.6 million, or 83.3%, compared to the same prior year period. This decrease in the cost of goods sold was primarily driven by decreases in the number of orders or products sold and related shipping costs.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, cost of goods sold was 78.8% compared to 80.5% of revenue in the respective prior year period. The 1.7% decrease in cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue was primarily attributable to changes in product mix, as well as ongoing supply chain disruptions and the lack of product availability as a result of our liquidity squeeze which peaked in early February.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit decreased by $15.1 million, or 81.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the same prior year period, primarily due to an 82.9% decrease in revenue.
Gross margin of 21.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was higher than the gross margin of 19.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily attributable to a change in the product category revenue mix as discussed above and shipping cost savings which was partially offset by increases in product costs.
Operating Expenses
Advertising expense decreased $8.6 million, or 88.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to reduction in discretionary spending which led to lower traffic and number of clicks.
Advertising expenses as a percentage of revenue were 7.1% and 10.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and 2022, respectively. The decrease in percentage was primarily attributable to a significant reduction in advertising in February and March.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses decreased $5.6 million, or 48.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in merchant fees of $2.1 million, compensation expense of $1.1 million, outsourced customer services costs of $0.8 million and various other immaterial decreases.
Depreciation expense was flat for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022.
21
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased by $416,305, for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to the $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 due to the interest related to the Initial Term Loan Advance and $230,498 related to the write-off of unamortized loan costs related to the $2.0 million payment that was made on such debt.
Income Tax Benefit
Income tax benefit was $0.0 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $0.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the effective income tax rate was 0.0%, compared to (18.23)% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The Company incurred a loss for the quarter and elected a full valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
This report includes non-GAAP financial measures that differ from financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other companies and should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, other measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Management uses non-GAAP financial measures internally to evaluate the performance of the business. Additionally, management believes certain non-GAAP measures provide meaningful incremental information to investors to consider when evaluating the performance of the Company.
To this end, we provide EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. EBITDA consists of net income (loss) plus (a) interest expense; (b) income tax provision (or less benefit); and (c) depreciation expense. Adjusted EBITDA consists of EBITDA plus costs, fees, expenses, write-offs, and other items that do not impact the fundamentals of our operations, as described further below following the reconciliation of these metrics. Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to investors in their assessment of the performance of our business. The exclusion of certain expenses in calculating EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA facilitates operating performance comparisons on a period-to-period basis as these costs may vary independent of business performance. Accordingly, we believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and Board of Directors.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
| ● | Although depreciation is a non-cash charge, the assets being depreciated may have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements; | |
| ● | EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in our working capital; | |
| ● | EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect income tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us; | |
| ● | EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect depreciation and interest expenses associated with the lease financing obligations; and |
| ● | Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure. |
22
Because of these limitations, you should consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, net income (loss) and our other GAAP results.
The following table reflects the reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for each of the periods indicated.

Litigation matters can vary in their characteristics, frequency, and significance to our operating results. |
Net loss increased by $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to the same prior year period, primarily driven by a decrease in gross profit of $15.1 million partially offset by a decrease in operating expenses of $14.2 million, The year-over-year decrease in Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to the same prior year period, was primarily attributable to an increase in net loss, interest of $0.4 million partially offset by a decrease in non-cash stock compensation expense, as noted in the reconciliation table above.
Free Cash Flow
To provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, we have also disclosed free cash flow, a non-GAAP financial measure that we calculate as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures (which consist of purchases of property and equipment and website and software development costs). We have provided a reconciliation below of free cash flow to net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
We have included free cash flow in this report because it is an important indicator of our liquidity as it measures the amount of cash we generate. Accordingly, we believe that free cash flow provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management.
Free cash flow has limitations as a financial measure, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. There are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures, including that other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate free cash flow differently. Because of these limitations, you should consider free cash flow alongside other financial performance measures, including net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, capital expenditures and our other GAAP results.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s cash was $0.5 million as of March 31, 2023. We have operated with a negative working capital model since our inception. The Company has a working capital deficiency of approximately $45.9 million as of March 31, 2023. We continue to face macro-economic headwinds, liquidity issues and the resulting declining revenue and profitability, which increased the working capital deficit in the current year, and resulted in the use of approximately $3.6 million in cash from operating activities, of which $0.5 million was attributable to changes in working capital during the quarter ended March 31, 2023. With this, substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
To address liquidity concerns, the Company is pursuing additional financing and continues to restructure and optimize its operations including moderating capital investments, improving gross margin, reducing expenses, and renegotiating vendor payment terms. The Company also believes that the newly negotiated shipping contract will lead to a substantial reduction in our shipping costs which began early November 2022. This will enable the Company to increase revenue and improve profitability. In addition, the Company obtained $5 million of net funding to address its liquidity needs of which $2.0 million was repaid in February 2023. Shortly thereafter, additional financing was obtained for $2.9 million from the sale and issuance of convertible notes and warrants on March 6, 2023.
Our ability to meet our obligations as they become due is dependent upon the degree of the success of our plans. Our ability to meet our obligations as they become due is dependent upon increased and stabilized revenue and profitability and additional funding. The Company believes that the operational adjustments that have been implemented, and the funds raised, will improve the financial position.
See Item 1A of Part I, “Risk Factors” for a discussion of the factors that may impact our ability to maintain adequate liquidity, included in our 2022 Form 10-K.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
The net cash used in operating activities consists of net loss, adjustments for certain non-cash items, including depreciation, and the effect of changes in working capital and other activities. Operating cash flows can be volatile and are sensitive to many factors, including changes in working capital and our net income (loss). We have a negative working capital model where current liabilities exceed current assets. Any profitable growth in revenue results in incremental cash for the Company. We receive funds when customers place orders on the website, while accounts payable are paid over a period. Vendor terms range on average from one week to eight weeks.
24
Net cash used in operating activities in the three months ended March 31, 2023, was $3.6 million, and was driven primarily by the impact of a net loss of $6.5 million, and a negative net change in operating assets and liabilities of $0.5 primarily comprising of a decrease in customer deposits, which was partially offset by non-cash depreciation and amortization expense of $2.2 million.
Net cash used in operating activities in the three months ended March 31, 2022, was $5.5 million, and was driven primarily by the impact of a net loss of $4.0 million, and a negative net change in operating assets and liabilities of $3.8 million primarily comprising of a decrease in accounts payables, which was partially offset by non-cash depreciation and amortization expenses of $2.2 million and other non-cash charges of $1.2 million.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, which primarily consisted of website and software development costs in both periods. The current year amount was partially offset by the proceeds from the sale of the Onyx.com domain name. Cash used in investing activities varies depending on the timing of technology and product development cycles.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was $900,000, compared to $0 in the three months ended March 31, 2022, due to borrowings from the issuance of convertible notes of $2,900,000 offset by the principal payment of $2.0 million related to JGB notes payable.
Future Cash Requirements
Operating Leases
The Company has several non-cancelable lease arrangements for office spaces and an equipment lease that expire at various dates through 2025. Rental expense for operating leases was $98,427 for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases as of March 31, 2023, are as follows:
| April 1, 2023, to March 31, 2024 | $ | 445,381 | ||
| April 1, 2024 to September 30, 2025 | 474,298 | |||
| Total future minimum lease payments | $ | 919,679 |
Warrants
In connection with the entry into the Loan Agreement, with respect to the Initial Term Loan Advance, the Company issued the Lender a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 1,000,000 shares (the “Warrant Shares”) of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”). Should the Company seek and obtain the Second Loan Term Advance in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Company will issue another Warrant to the Lender to purchase an additional 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock on the same terms and conditions as the Warrant issued with respect to the Initial Term Loan Advance.
The Company received funding of $5,000,000 in cash on October 21, 2022. The warrant was valued at $799,000 at issuance using the Black-Scholes model. The Company paid approximately $0.2 million in costs in connection with the loan. The loan calls for thirty monthly payments of $183,333 beginning April 30, 2023, with the last payment due on September 30, 2025. On February 22, 2023 the Company and the Agent executed an amendment to the Loan Agreement (the “Amendment”), which, among other things, the Company agreed to repay the principal amount of the term loan to the Agent in the following installments: (A) $2 million on February 23, 2023, (B) $1 million on August 22, 2023 and (C) the entire remaining principal balance and all accrued but unpaid interest which remained at the original loan rate of 8.0% (including the Original Issue Discount, as defined in the Amendment) on August 22, 2024.
25
In addition, the Company issued Convertible Notes on March 6, 2023 for $2.9 million and the Company issued the investors warrants to purchase 580,000 shares of common stock. These warrants were valued at approximately $158,000 at issuance using the Black-Sholes model.
The Company continues to evaluate opportunities to sell additional equity or debt securities, obtain credit facilities, obtain finance and operating lease arrangements, and/or enter into financing obligations for strategic reasons or to further strengthen our financial position. The sale of additional equity or convertible debt securities would be dilutive to our shareholders. In addition, we will, from time to time, consider the acquisition of, or investment in, complementary businesses, products, services, capital infrastructure, and technologies, which might affect our liquidity requirements or cause us to secure additional financing, or issue additional equity or debt securities. There can be no assurance that additional credit lines or financing instruments will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures consist primarily of website and software development, and the amount and timing thereof vary depending on the timing of technology and product development cycles.
Dividends
The Company has never paid dividends on any of our capital stock and currently intends to retain any future earnings to fund the growth of our business. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of the Board and will depend on our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements, general business conditions and other factors that the Board may deem relevant.
Cash Taxes
The Company paid $0.0 in taxes in cash for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and $0.0 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $17,034,462 in federal net operating losses (“NOL”), all remaining from 2019 and onwards and accordingly may be available to offset future taxable income indefinitely. However, the NOL’s are subject to an 80% taxable income limitation for all periods after January 1, 2021. The Company does not currently anticipate any significant increase or decrease in the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months.
26
Critical Accounting Estimates
Critical accounting estimates are those estimates made in accordance with GAAP that involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the financial condition or results of operation of the registrant. These items require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often because of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and that may change in subsequent periods. In preparing our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, management has made estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
In preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, management has utilized available information, including our history, industry standards and the current and projected economic environments, among other factors, in forming its estimates, assumptions and judgments, considering materiality. Because the use of estimates is inherent in GAAP, actual results could differ from those estimates. In addition, other companies may utilize different estimates, which may impact comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses.
A summary of the accounting estimates that management believes are critical to the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements is set forth below. See Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report and in our 2022 Form 10-K for our other significant accounting policies and accounting pronouncements that may impact the Company’s consolidated financial position, earnings, cash flows or disclosures.
Revenue Recognition
Our revenue recognition is impacted by estimates of unshipped and undelivered orders at the end of the applicable reporting period. As we ship a large volume of packages through multiple carriers, actual delivery dates may not always be available, and as such we estimate delivery dates based on historical data. If actual unshipped and undelivered orders are not consistent with our estimates, the impact on our revenue for the applicable reporting period could be material. Unshipped and undelivered orders as of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, were $1.2 million and $3.1 million, respectively, which are reflected as customer deposits on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The outstanding days from the order date of our unshipped and undelivered orders were, on average, estimated at 9.6 days as of March 31, 2023, based on our actual determination of 9.6 days as of October 31, 2022.
Sales discounts earned by customers at the time of purchase and taxes collected from customers, which are remitted to governmental authorities, are deducted from gross revenue in determining net revenue. Allowances for sales returns are estimated and recorded based on historical experience and reduce product revenue, inclusive of shipping fees, by expected product returns.
If actual sales returns are not consistent with our estimates, or if we have to make adjustments, we may incur future losses or gains that could be material. Adjustments to our estimated net allowances for sales returns over the three months ended March 31, 2023, and 2022 were as follows:
| Three months ended March 31, | ||||||||
| 2023 | 2022 | |||||||
| Balance at beginning of period | $ | 549,250 | $ | 738,465 | ||||
| Adjustment | 661,442 | 145,188 | ||||||
| Balance at closing of period | $ | 1,210,692 | $ | 883,653 | ||||
27
Website and Software Development
We capitalize certain costs associated with website and software development (technology platform including the product catalog) for internal use in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350-50, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Website Development Costs, and ASC 350-40, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Internal Use Software, when both the preliminary project design and the testing stage are completed and management has authorized further funding for the project, which it deems probable of completion and to be used for the function intended. Capitalized costs include amounts related to website and software development such as contractors’ fees, payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with and who devote time to our internal-use software. Capitalization of such costs ceases when the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalized costs are amortized over a three-year period commencing on the date that the specific module or platform is placed in service. Costs incurred during the preliminary stages of development and ongoing maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Determinations as to when a project is substantially complete and what constitutes ongoing maintenance require judgments and estimates by management. We periodically review the carrying values of capitalized costs and make judgments as to ultimate realization. The amount of capitalized software costs for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and 2022 were as follows:
| Three months ended March 31, | Capitalized Software | ||||
| 2022 | $ | 1,837,962 | |||
| 2023 | $ | 881,643 | |||
Stock-Based Compensation
Compensation expense related to stock option awards and restricted stock units granted to certain employees, directors and consultants is based on the fair value of the awards on the grant date. If the service inception date precedes the grant date, accrual of compensation cost for periods before the grant date is based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date. In the period in which the grant date occurs, cumulative compensation cost is adjusted to reflect the cumulative effect of measuring compensation cost based on fair value at the grant date rather than the fair value previously used at the service inception date or any subsequent reporting date. Forfeitures are recorded as they occur. The Company recognizes compensation cost related to time-vested options and restricted stock units with graded vesting features on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Compensation cost related to performance-vesting options and performance-based units, where a performance condition or a market condition that affects vesting exists, is recognized over the shortest of the explicit, implicit, or defined service periods. Compensation cost is adjusted depending on whether the performance condition is achieved. If the achievement of the performance condition is probable or becomes probable, the full fair value of the award is recognized. If the achievement of the performance condition is not probable or ceases to be probable, then no compensation cost is recognized or amounts previously recognized are reversed.
Changes in expectations and outcomes different from estimates (such as the achievement or non- achievement of performance conditions) may cause a significant adjustment to earnings in a reporting period as timing and amount of expense recognition is highly dependent on management’s estimate.
Deferred Tax Assets
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to temporary 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 enacted tax rates for years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced by the amount of any tax benefit that, based on available evidence, is not expected to be realized, and a corresponding allowance is established. The current income tax provision reflects the tax consequences of revenues and expenses currently taxable or deductible on the Company’s various income tax returns for the reporting year.
28
Allowance for Credit Losses
Accounts receivable balances include amounts due from customers. The Company periodically reviews its accounts receivable balances to determine whether an allowance for credit losses is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts, historical occurrences of credit losses, existing economic conditions, and other circumstances that may indicate that the realization of an account is in doubt. As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the Company determined that an allowance for credit losses was not necessary. As circumstances change, it could result in material adjustments to the allowance for credit losses.
Warrants
The warrants liability balance includes the values of warrants issued in connection with issuance of convertible debt issued by the Company. The Company periodically reviews the values of these warrants based on the historical and future values of the Company’s stock, it’s volatility and the risk-free rate using the Black-Scholes model. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the liability was $153,000 and $551,000. A change in any or all of the aforementioned factors over time could result in a material adjustment to this liability.

| Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars and have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and as amended by Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The December 31, 2022 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. Results for interim periods should not be considered indicative of results for any other interim period or for the full year.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PARTS iD, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary PARTS iD, LLC. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Critical accounting estimates are estimates for which (a) the nature of the estimate is material due to the level of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change and (b) the impact of the estimate on financial condition or operating performance is material. The Company’s critical accounting estimates and assumptions affecting the financial statements include revenue recognition, return allowances, allowance for credit losses, depreciation, inventory valuation, valuation of deferred income tax assets and the capitalization and recoverability of software development costs.
Stock Compensation
Compensation expense related to stock option awards and restricted stock units granted to certain employees, directors and consultants is based on the fair value of the awards on the grant date. If the service inception date precedes the grant date, accrual of compensation cost for periods before the grant date is based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date. In the period in which the grant date occurs, cumulative compensation cost is adjusted to reflect the cumulative effect of measuring compensation cost based on fair value at the grant date rather than the fair value previously used at the service inception date or any subsequent reporting date. Forfeitures are recorded as they occur. The Company recognizes compensation cost related to time-vested options and restricted stock units with graded vesting features on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Compensation cost related to performance-vesting options and performance-based units, where a performance condition or a market condition that affects vesting exists, is recognized over the shortest of the explicit, implicit, or defined service periods. Compensation cost is adjusted depending on whether the performance condition is achieved. If the achievement of the performance condition is probable or becomes probable, the full fair value of the award is recognized. If the achievement of the performance condition is not probable or ceases to be probable, then no compensation cost is recognized or amounts previously recognized are reversed.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that expose the Company to a concentration of credit risk principally include cash and accounts receivable balances. The Company has significant cash balances at financial institutions which throughout the year regularly exceed the federally insured limit of $250,000. Any loss incurred or lack of access to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. The Company manages accounts receivable credit risk through its policy of limiting extensions of credit to customers. Substantially all customer orders are paid by credit card at the point of sale.
Going Concern
These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The going concern assumption contemplates the realization of assts and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have operated with a negative working capital model since our inception. The Company has a working capital deficiency of approximately $45.9 million. We continue to face macro-economic headwinds and the resulting declining revenue and profitability, which increased the working capital deficit, and resulted in the use of approximately $3.6 million in cash from operating activities, of which $0.5 million was attributable to changes in working capital during the quarter ended March 31, 2023. With this, substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date of the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue to operate as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business, and does not reflect 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 from uncertainty related to our ability to continue as a going concern.
To address liquidity concerns, the Company is pursuing additional financing and continues to restructure and optimize its operations including moderating capital investments, improving gross margin, reducing expenses, and renegotiating vendor payment terms. In addition, to address its liquidity needs, the Company recently obtained an aggregate of (i) $5 million of net funding from JGB (as discussed below) and (ii) $2.9 million from the sale and issuance of convertible notes and warrants (as discussed below). $2.0 million was used to pay JGB pursuant to the Amendment to the Loan Agreement (as discussed below).
PARTS iD has also retained Canaccord Genuity Group, Inc. (“Canaccord”) as its financial advisor and DLA Piper LLP (US) as its legal counsel to assist in evaluating potential strategic alternatives.
There can be no assurance that the evaluation of strategic alternatives will result in any potential transaction, or any assurance as to its outcome or timing. PARTS iD has not set a timetable for completion of the process and does not intend to disclose developments related to the process unless and until PARTS iD executes a definitive agreement with respect thereto, or the Board otherwise determines that further disclosure is appropriate or required.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable balances include amounts due from customers. The Company periodically reviews its accounts receivable balances to determine whether an allowance for credit losses is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts, historical occurrences of credit losses, existing economic conditions, and other circumstances that may indicate that the realization of an account is in doubt. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the Company determined that an allowance for credit losses was not necessary.
Inventory
Inventory consists of purchased goods that are immediately available-for-sale and are stated at the lower cost or net realizable value, determined using the first-in first-out method. Merchandise-in-transit directly from suppliers to customers is recorded in inventory until the product is delivered to the customer. As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, merchandise-in-transit amounted to $413,628 and $957,735, respectively. The risk of loss is transferred from the supplier to the Company at the shipping point. Since the purchased goods are immediately shipped directly from suppliers to customers the Company deemed that an inventory reserve for obsolete or slow-moving goods was unnecessary.
Other Current Assets
Other current assets include advances to vendors amounting to $2,204,192 and $1,796,680 as of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively, which is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Website and Software Development
The Company capitalizes certain costs associated with website and software developed for internal use in accordance with ASC 350-50, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Website Development Costs, and ASC 350-40, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal Use Software, when both the preliminary project design and the testing stage are completed and management has authorized further funding for the project, which it deems probable of completion and to be used for the function intended. Capitalized costs include amounts related to website and software development such as contractors’ fees, payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with and who devote time to the internal-use software project. Capitalization of such costs ceases when the project is complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalized costs are amortized over a three-year period commencing on the date that the specific module or platform is placed in service. Costs incurred during the preliminary stages of development and ongoing maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist of indefinite-lived domain names and are stated at cost less impairment losses, if any. The Company reviews its intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the intangible asset may not be recoverable. When such events occur, the Company compares the carrying amount of the asset to the undiscounted expected future cash flows related to the asset. If the comparison indicates that an impairment exists, the amount of the impairment is calculated as the difference between the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset. The Company has determined that there were no triggering events in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, and no impairment charges were necessary.
During the first quarter of 2023 the Company sold its Onyx.com domain name for $250,000.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of property and equipment is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
Accounts Payable
Accounts payable as of March 31, 2023, consisted of amounts payable to vendors of $34.8 million and credit card payable of $3.3 million payable to a credit card company. The Company has not reached a definitive agreement with the credit card company on paying off the balance owed. The Company stopped making any payments and is responsible for late fees and any interest on the outstanding balance. As of December 31,2022, accounts payable consisted of amounts payable to vendors of $33.1 million and $3.3 million credit card payable to the same credit card company mentioned above.
Revenue Recognition
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”). This standard replaced all previous accounting guidance on this topic, eliminated all industry-specific guidance and provided a unified model to determine how revenue is recognized. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard requires companies to use more judgment and make more estimates than under prior guidance. Judgments include identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of consideration to include in the transaction price, and allocating the transaction price to each performance obligation.
In determining the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under its agreements, the Company performs the following steps: (i) identifies contracts with customers; (ii) identifies performance obligation(s); (iii) determines the transaction price; (iv) allocates the transaction price to the performance obligation(s); and (v) recognizes revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.
The Company recognizes revenue on product sales through its website as the principal in the transaction as the Company has concluded it controls the product before it is transferred to the customer. The Company controls products when it is the entity responsible for fulfilling the promise to the customer and takes responsibility for the acceptability of the goods, assumes inventory risk from shipment through the delivery date, has discretion in establishing prices, and selects the suppliers of products sold.
Sales discounts earned by customers at the time of purchase and taxes collected from customers, which are remitted to governmental authorities, are deducted from gross revenue in determining net revenue. Allowances for sales returns are estimated and recorded based on historical experience and reduce product revenue, inclusive of shipping fees, by expected product returns. Allowances for sales returns at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, were $1,210,692 and $549,250, respectively.
The Company has two types of contractual liabilities: (a) amounts received from customers prior to the delivery of products are recorded as customer deposits in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and are recognized as revenue when the products are delivered, which amounted to $1,169,758 and $3,098,119 at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and (ii) site credits (which are initially recorded in accrued expenses and are recognized as revenue in the period they are redeemed), amounting to $3,533,519 and $3,414,019 at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold consists of the cost of product sold to customers, plus shipping and handling costs and shipping supplies, net of vendor rebates.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred $1.1 million in advertising costs during the quarter ended March 31, 2023, and $9.7 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2022.
Income Taxes
The Company is a C corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to temporary 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 enacted tax rates for years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced by the amount of any tax benefit that, based on available evidence, is not expected to be realized, and a corresponding allowance is established. The current income tax provision reflects the tax consequences of revenues and expenses currently taxable or deductible on the Company’s various income tax returns for the reporting year.
ASC 740 also provides guidance on the accounting for uncertain tax positions recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. Based on the Company’s evaluation, management concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company files U.S. federal and State of New Jersey tax returns and had no unrecognized tax benefits at March 31 ,2023 and December 31, 2022.
The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such expenses as a component of income tax expense. There were no amounts accrued for penalties or interest as of or during the quarters ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. Management is currently unaware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or material deviations from its filing positions.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
For the quarters ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, basic net loss per common share was determined by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. For purposes of calculating diluted net loss per common share, the denominator includes both the weighted average common shares outstanding and the number of common stock equivalents if the inclusion of such common stock equivalents would be dilutive. Dilutive common stock equivalents potentially include performance-based stock units and unvested restricted stock units using the treasury stock method. For all periods presented, there is no difference in the number of shares used to compute basic and diluted net loss per common share due to the Company’s net loss.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires an “incurred loss” methodology for recognizing credit losses that delays recognition until it is probable that a loss has been incurred. This ASU is effective for smaller reporting companies for years beginning January 1,2023. The Company adopted Topic 326 on January 1, 2023, and the adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Certain Significant Risks and Uncertainties
In February 2022, the Russian Federation launched a full-scale invasion against Ukraine, and sustained conflict and disruption in the region is ongoing. The Company’s engineering and product data development team as well as back office and part of its customer service center are in Ukraine. The Company’s ability to maintain adequate liquidity for its operations is dependent upon several factors, including its revenue and earnings, the impacts of COVID-19 and Russian-Ukraine conflict on macroeconomic conditions, and its ability to take further cost savings and cash conservation measures if necessary. The Russian-Ukraine conflict could have a material adverse effect upon the Company.
Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no significant changes from the significant accounting policies disclosed in Note 2 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (our “2022 Form 10-K”). |

| Debt | Note 5 – Debt
On October 21, 2022 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with JGB Collateral, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“JGB”), in its capacity as collateral agent (the “Agent”) and the several financial institutions or entities that from time to time become parties to the Loan Agreement as lenders (collectively, the “Lender”).
The Loan Agreement provided for term loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $11.0 million under two tranches. The tranches consist of (a) a first tranche consisting of term loans in the aggregate principal amount of $5.5 million, of which the entire amount was funded to the Company on the Closing Date (the “Initial Term Loan Advance”); and (ii) a second tranche consisting of term loans in the aggregate principal amount of an additional $5.5 million, which may funded to the Company by the Lender in its sole and absolute discretion (subject to the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement) until the date that is six months after the Closing Date (the “Second Term Loan Advance” and together with the Initial Term Loan Advance, the “Term Loan Advances”). Each of the Term Loan Advances will be issued with an original issue discount of $500,000.
In connection with the entry into the Loan Agreement, with respect to the Initial Term Loan Advance, the Company issued to the Lender a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 1,000,000 shares (the “Warrant Shares”) of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”). The Warrant will be exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance at a per-share exercise price equal to $2.00, subject to certain adjustments as specified in the Warrant. If the Company seeks and obtains the Second Loan Term Advance in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Company will issue another Warrant to the Lender to purchase 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a per-share exercise price equal to $2.00 and otherwise on the same terms and conditions as the Warrant issued with respect to the Initial Term Loan Advance. The Warrant also provides for customary shelf and piggyback registration rights with respect to the Warrant Shares.
The effective interest rate on the Initial Term Loan Advance of $5.5 million note was 17.9%. The Company incurred debt issue issuance costs of approximately $165,000 in connection with this loan and recorded a discount of $500,000. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $4.2 million outstanding net of amortization of debt issuance costs of $18,903 and $56,735 amortization of discount on the note. The Company incurred $166,527 of interest expense on the note during the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022. A portion of the note was attributed to the warrants for 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s stock which at the time of issuance had been valued at $799,000 using the Black-Scholes model. As of December 31, 2022, the fair value of the warrant was determined to be approximately $551,000 and at March 31, 2023 the fair value of the warrant was determined to be $73,000, and accordingly, the decrease in its value was recorded as a change in fair value of warrants on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The loan requires the Company to make 30 monthly payments of $183,333 beginning on April 30, 2023, with the last payment due September 30, 2025. On January 6, 2023, the Company notified its Agent and Lender that it was not in compliance with the Consolidated Quarterly Net Revenue Covenant (as defined in the Loan Agreement) for the calendar quarter ended December 31, 2022. On February 22, 2023, the Company and JGB executed an amendment to the Loan Agreement (the “Amendment”) and on February 27, 2023, the Company repaid $2.0 million of the loan to JGB.
On February 22, 2023 the Company and the Agent executed an amendment to the Loan Agreement (the “Amendment”), which, among other things, (i) the Company agreed to repay the principal amount of the term loan to the Agent in the following installments: (A) $2 million on February 23, 2023, (B) $1 million on August 22, 2023 and (C) the entire remaining principal balance and all accrued but unpaid interest which remained at the original loan rate of 8.0% (including the Original Issue Discount, as defined in the Amendment) on August 22, 2024; (ii) the Agent agreed to withdraw the Notice of Default and not exercise its purported rights and remedies thereunder; (iii) the Lender may elect, at any time and from time to time, to convert any outstanding portion of the outstanding term loan into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.50 per share; (iv) removed the “Cash Minimum” covenant of which the Company had to maintain unrestricted, unencumbered Cash (as defined in the Loan Agreement) of at least $2,000,000; (v) removed the EBITDA (as defined in the Loan Agreement) covenant of which the Company had to maintain at least the applicable EBITDA Target (as defined in the Loan Agreement) for each calendar quarter; (vi) removed the revenue covenant in which the Company had to maintain consolidated quarterly net revenue of at least $75 million each calendar quarter and (vii) provided a lien to JGB in the Company’s claims for trademark infringement against Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. pursuant to the lawsuit currently pending in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey and captioned as Onyx Enterprises Int’l, Corp v. Volkswagen Group of America, Inc., and all proceeds and products thereof and United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts and captioned as Onyx Enterprises International Corp. v. ID Parts LLC, and all proceeds and products thereof (collectively, the “Volkswagen Trademark Claims”), provided that the Company can secure the Permitted Litigation Indebtedness (as defined in the Amendment) on the terms described in the Amendment.
In connection with the Amendment, the Company and the Agent entered into an Amended and Restated Intellectual Property and Security Agreement (the “A&R Security Agreement”) which amended and restated that certain Intellectual Property and Security Agreement, dated as of October 21, 2022. The A&R Security Agreement removed the exclusion of the Volkswagen Trademark Claims from the Agent’s security interest in the Company’s intellectual property.
The Amendment was accounted for as a debt extinguishment in accordance with ASC 470, which resulted in the Initial Term Loan Advance being derecognized and the convertible notes that were issued as a result of the Amendment being recorded at fair value with the difference resulting in a $879,045 loss on debt extinguishment for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
On March 6, 2023 (the “Initial Closing Date”), PARTS iD, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) whereby the Company agreed to issue and sell to certain investors (collectively, the “Investors”), in a private placement, (a) an aggregate principal amount of up to $10 million in junior secured convertible promissory notes (the “Convertible Notes”) and (i) an aggregate of up to two million warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share (the “Warrants”), in one or more closings pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement. All the disinterested directors of the Company’s Board of Directors, as well as the disinterested directors of the Audit Committee, reviewed and approved the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Convertible Notes and Warrants. As of the Initial Closing Date, the Company issued and sold (a) an aggregate principal amount of $2,900,000 of Convertible Notes and (ii) an aggregate of 580,000 Warrants, of which $2,650,000 of Convertible Notes and 530,000 Warrants were purchased by entities affiliated with certain directors, officers, and beneficial owners of the Company. At the time of issuance the fair value of the Warrants was determined to be $158,000 using the Black-Scholes model. As of March 31, 2023, the fair value of the Warrants was determined to be $80,000, and accordingly, the decrease in their value was recorded as a change in fair value of warrants on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
The Convertible Notes accrue interest at 7.75% per annum, compounded semi-annually and such interest may be paid at the option of the Company either in cash or common stock. Upon the Company’s sale and issuance of equity or equity-linked securities pursuant to which the Company receives aggregate gross proceeds of at least $3 million (a “Qualified Equity Financing”), the Convertible Notes are mandatorily convertible into shares of such equity securities sold in the Qualified Equity Financing. The Company may, at its option, redeem the Convertible Notes (including the outstanding principal and any accrued but unpaid interest thereon) for cash, in full or in part, if the Convertible Notes have otherwise not been converted within 180 days of the date of issuance. In addition, upon a Change of Control (as defined in the Convertible Notes) of the Company, the Convertible Notes shall be repaid in full at or before the closing of such transaction in cash.
The Convertible Notes are strictly subordinated to the (a) senior secured indebtedness incurred or owed by the Company pursuant to that certain Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of October 21, 2022, by and among the Company, its subsidiary PARTS iD, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and JGB Collateral, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, in its capacity as collateral agent and the several financial institutions or entities that from time to time become parties thereto, as amended by that certain Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of February 22, 2023 (the “Loan Agreement”); and (ii) the Permitted Litigation Indebtedness (as defined in the Loan Agreement).
Subject to the subordination provisions described above and more fully described in the Convertible Notes, the Convertible Notes are secured by a junior security interest in all the Company’s rights, title, and interest in and to all the Company’s assets. The Convertible Notes mature on March 6, 2025.
The Warrants will expire after 5 years from the date of issuance and may not be exercised on a cashless basis. The Warrants provide that a holder of Warrants will not have the right to exercise any portion of its Warrants, if such holder, together with its affiliates, and any other party whose holdings would be aggregated with those of the holder for purposes of Section 13(d) or Section 16 of the Exchange Act would beneficially own in excess of 4.99%, of the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise (the “Beneficial Ownership Limitation”); provided, however, that each holder may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation by giving notice to the Company, with any such increase not taking effect until the sixty-first day after such notice is delivered to the Company but not to any percentage in excess of 9.99%; provided that any holder of the Warrants that beneficially owns in excess of 19.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding on the issuance date of the Warrants shall not be subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation.
The Company intends to use the proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Notes and the Warrants for working capital purposes and the repayment of current indebtedness.
The Convertible Notes and the Warrants were issued by the Company in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and have not been registered under the Securities Act. |

During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, selling, general and administrative expenses included $655,587 and $867,370 of stock-based compensation expense, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company capitalized $463,407 and $424,110, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense associated with awards issued to consultants who are directly associated with and who devote time to our internal-use software.
Equity Incentive Plan
In October 2020, in connection with the Business Combination, the Company’s stockholders approved the Parts iD, Inc. 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 EIP”). The 2020 EIP became effective immediately upon the closing of the Business Combination. As of March 31, 2023, of the 4,904,596 shares of Class A common stock reserved for issuance under the 2020 EIP in the aggregate, 3,212,078 shares remained available for issuance.
The 2020 EIP provides for the grant of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance shares, performance units (“PSUs”), stock appreciation rights, other stock-based awards, and cash awards (collectively “awards”). The awards may be granted to employees, directors, and consultants of the Company.
Restricted Stock Units
The following table summarizes the activity related to restricted stock units (“RSUs”) during the three months ended March 31, 2023:
As of March 31, 2023, approximately $3.2 million of unamortized stock-based compensation expense was associated with outstanding RSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted average period of 0.6 years.
Performance Based Restricted Stock Units
The following table summarizes the activity related to performance based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) during the three months ended March 31, 2023:
As of March 31, 2023, the performance criteria included in the PSUs plan are unlikely to be achieved and accordingly the Company has no accrual of stock-based compensation expenses associated with the outstanding PSUs. The weighted average period of 0.77 years was remaining before the expiration of outstanding PSUs.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
In October 2020, in connection with the Business Combination, the Company’s stockholders approved the Parts iD, Inc. 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2020 ESPP”). There are 2,043,582 shares of Class A common stock available for issuance under the 2020 ESPP. The 2020 ESPP became effective immediately upon the closing of the Business Combination, but it has not yet been implemented. As of March 31, 2023, no shares had been issued under the 2020 ESPP. |

The Company may prepay the note amounts at any time prior to the Maturity Date.
The convertible notes are strictly subordinated to the (i) senior secured indebtedness incurred or owed by the Company pursuant to that certain Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of October 21, 2022, by and among the Company, its subsidiary PARTS iD, LLC and JGB Collateral, LLC, in its capacity as collateral agent and the several financial institutions or entities that from time to time become parties thereto, as amended by that certain Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of February 22, 2023 and (ii) Permitted Litigation Indebtedness (as defined in the Loan Agreement).

| Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation | Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars and have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and as amended by Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The December 31, 2022 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. Results for interim periods should not be considered indicative of results for any other interim period or for the full year.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PARTS iD, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary PARTS iD, LLC. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

| Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Critical accounting estimates are estimates for which (a) the nature of the estimate is material due to the level of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change and (b) the impact of the estimate on financial condition or operating performance is material. The Company’s critical accounting estimates and assumptions affecting the financial statements include revenue recognition, return allowances, allowance for credit losses, depreciation, inventory valuation, valuation of deferred income tax assets and the capitalization and recoverability of software development costs.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||
| Stock Compensation | Stock Compensation
Compensation expense related to stock option awards and restricted stock units granted to certain employees, directors and consultants is based on the fair value of the awards on the grant date. If the service inception date precedes the grant date, accrual of compensation cost for periods before the grant date is based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date. In the period in which the grant date occurs, cumulative compensation cost is adjusted to reflect the cumulative effect of measuring compensation cost based on fair value at the grant date rather than the fair value previously used at the service inception date or any subsequent reporting date. Forfeitures are recorded as they occur. The Company recognizes compensation cost related to time-vested options and restricted stock units with graded vesting features on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Compensation cost related to performance-vesting options and performance-based units, where a performance condition or a market condition that affects vesting exists, is recognized over the shortest of the explicit, implicit, or defined service periods. Compensation cost is adjusted depending on whether the performance condition is achieved. If the achievement of the performance condition is probable or becomes probable, the full fair value of the award is recognized. If the achievement of the performance condition is not probable or ceases to be probable, then no compensation cost is recognized or amounts previously recognized are reversed.

| Concentration of Credit Risk | Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that expose the Company to a concentration of credit risk principally include cash and accounts receivable balances. The Company has significant cash balances at financial institutions which throughout the year regularly exceed the federally insured limit of $250,000. Any loss incurred or lack of access to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. The Company manages accounts receivable credit risk through its policy of limiting extensions of credit to customers. Substantially all customer orders are paid by credit card at the point of sale.

| Going Concern | Going Concern
These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The going concern assumption contemplates the realization of assts and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have operated with a negative working capital model since our inception. The Company has a working capital deficiency of approximately $45.9 million. We continue to face macro-economic headwinds and the resulting declining revenue and profitability, which increased the working capital deficit, and resulted in the use of approximately $3.6 million in cash from operating activities, of which $0.5 million was attributable to changes in working capital during the quarter ended March 31, 2023. With this, substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date of the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue to operate as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business, and does not reflect 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 from uncertainty related to our ability to continue as a going concern.
To address liquidity concerns, the Company is pursuing additional financing and continues to restructure and optimize its operations including moderating capital investments, improving gross margin, reducing expenses, and renegotiating vendor payment terms. In addition, to address its liquidity needs, the Company recently obtained an aggregate of (i) $5 million of net funding from JGB (as discussed below) and (ii) $2.9 million from the sale and issuance of convertible notes and warrants (as discussed below). $2.0 million was used to pay JGB pursuant to the Amendment to the Loan Agreement (as discussed below).
PARTS iD has also retained Canaccord Genuity Group, Inc. (“Canaccord”) as its financial advisor and DLA Piper LLP (US) as its legal counsel to assist in evaluating potential strategic alternatives.
There can be no assurance that the evaluation of strategic alternatives will result in any potential transaction, or any assurance as to its outcome or timing. PARTS iD has not set a timetable for completion of the process and does not intend to disclose developments related to the process unless and until PARTS iD executes a definitive agreement with respect thereto, or the Board otherwise determines that further disclosure is appropriate or required.

| Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable balances include amounts due from customers. The Company periodically reviews its accounts receivable balances to determine whether an allowance for credit losses is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts, historical occurrences of credit losses, existing economic conditions, and other circumstances that may indicate that the realization of an account is in doubt. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the Company determined that an allowance for credit losses was not necessary.

| Inventory | Inventory
Inventory consists of purchased goods that are immediately available-for-sale and are stated at the lower cost or net realizable value, determined using the first-in first-out method. Merchandise-in-transit directly from suppliers to customers is recorded in inventory until the product is delivered to the customer. As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, merchandise-in-transit amounted to $413,628 and $957,735, respectively. The risk of loss is transferred from the supplier to the Company at the shipping point. Since the purchased goods are immediately shipped directly from suppliers to customers the Company deemed that an inventory reserve for obsolete or slow-moving goods was unnecessary.

Capitalized costs include amounts related to website and software development such as contractors’ fees, payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with and who devote time to the internal-use software project. Capitalization of such costs ceases when the project is complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalized costs are amortized over a three-year period commencing on the date that the specific module or platform is placed in service. Costs incurred during the preliminary stages of development and ongoing maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

| Intangible Assets | Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist of indefinite-lived domain names and are stated at cost less impairment losses, if any. The Company reviews its intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the intangible asset may not be recoverable. When such events occur, the Company compares the carrying amount of the asset to the undiscounted expected future cash flows related to the asset. If the comparison indicates that an impairment exists, the amount of the impairment is calculated as the difference between the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset. The Company has determined that there were no triggering events in the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, and no impairment charges were necessary.
During the first quarter of 2023 the Company sold its Onyx.com domain name for $250,000.

| Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”). This standard replaced all previous accounting guidance on this topic, eliminated all industry-specific guidance and provided a unified model to determine how revenue is recognized. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard requires companies to use more judgment and make more estimates than under prior guidance. Judgments include identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of consideration to include in the transaction price, and allocating the transaction price to each performance obligation.
In determining the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under its agreements, the Company performs the following steps: (i) identifies contracts with customers; (ii) identifies performance obligation(s); (iii) determines the transaction price; (iv) allocates the transaction price to the performance obligation(s); and (v) recognizes revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.
The Company recognizes revenue on product sales through its website as the principal in the transaction as the Company has concluded it controls the product before it is transferred to the customer. The Company controls products when it is the entity responsible for fulfilling the promise to the customer and takes responsibility for the acceptability of the goods, assumes inventory risk from shipment through the delivery date, has discretion in establishing prices, and selects the suppliers of products sold.
Sales discounts earned by customers at the time of purchase and taxes collected from customers, which are remitted to governmental authorities, are deducted from gross revenue in determining net revenue. Allowances for sales returns are estimated and recorded based on historical experience and reduce product revenue, inclusive of shipping fees, by expected product returns. Allowances for sales returns at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, were $1,210,692 and $549,250, respectively.
The Company has two types of contractual liabilities: (a) amounts received from customers prior to the delivery of products are recorded as customer deposits in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and are recognized as revenue when the products are delivered, which amounted to $1,169,758 and $3,098,119 at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and (ii) site credits (which are initially recorded in accrued expenses and are recognized as revenue in the period they are redeemed), amounting to $3,533,519 and $3,414,019 at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

| Income Taxes | Income Taxes
The Company is a C corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to temporary 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 enacted tax rates for years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced by the amount of any tax benefit that, based on available evidence, is not expected to be realized, and a corresponding allowance is established. The current income tax provision reflects the tax consequences of revenues and expenses currently taxable or deductible on the Company’s various income tax returns for the reporting year.
ASC 740 also provides guidance on the accounting for uncertain tax positions recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. Based on the Company’s evaluation, management concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company files U.S. federal and State of New Jersey tax returns and had no unrecognized tax benefits at March 31 ,2023 and December 31, 2022.
The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such expenses as a component of income tax expense. There were no amounts accrued for penalties or interest as of or during the quarters ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. Management is currently unaware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals, or material deviations from its filing positions.

| Earnings (Loss) Per Share | Earnings (Loss) Per Share
For the quarters ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, basic net loss per common share was determined by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. For purposes of calculating diluted net loss per common share, the denominator includes both the weighted average common shares outstanding and the number of common stock equivalents if the inclusion of such common stock equivalents would be dilutive. Dilutive common stock equivalents potentially include performance-based stock units and unvested restricted stock units using the treasury stock method. For all periods presented, there is no difference in the number of shares used to compute basic and diluted net loss per common share due to the Company’s net loss.

| New Accounting Standards | Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires an “incurred loss” methodology for recognizing credit losses that delays recognition until it is probable that a loss has been incurred. This ASU is effective for smaller reporting companies for years beginning January 1,2023. The Company adopted Topic 326 on January 1, 2023, and the adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

In February 2022, the Russian Federation launched a full-scale invasion against Ukraine, and sustained conflict and disruption in the region is ongoing. The Company’s engineering and product data development team as well as back office and part of its customer service center are in Ukraine. The Company’s ability to maintain adequate liquidity for its operations is dependent upon several factors, including its revenue and earnings, the impacts of COVID-19 and Russian-Ukraine conflict on macroeconomic conditions, and its ability to take further cost savings and cash conservation measures if necessary. The Russian-Ukraine conflict could have a material adverse effect upon the Company.
