Basis of Presentation

These interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). These interim unaudited financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows of BMT for the interim periods presented. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant
change in the near-term relate to the valuation of deferred tax assets, the valuation of the private warrants, and the annual goodwill and intangible asset impairment analysis. Prior periods presented for comparative purposes represent the balances and activity of BankMobile Technologies, Inc. (other than shares which were retroactively restated in connection with the merger).

Significant Accounting Policies

These interim unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the 2020 audited financial statements of BMT, which describe BMT’s significant accounting policies. There have been no material changes to BMT’s significant accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements have been omitted from these interim unaudited financial statements as permitted by U.S. GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

As an emerging growth company (“EGC”), the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”) allows the Company to delay adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are applicable to private companies. The Company has elected not to use the extended transition period under the JOBS Act.

The Company has both Private and Public Warrants outstanding which are being treated differently for accounting purposes. Note 9 - Shareholders’ Equity and Private Warrant Liability provides additional information.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

On January 1, 2021, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASU 2019-12: Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740), which removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and improves the application of and simplifies guidance for other areas of Topic 740. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Accounting Pronouncements Issued but Not Yet Adopted

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by BMT as of the required effective dates. The following paragraphs related to new pronouncements should be read in conjunction with Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to the Audited Financial Statements included in our 2020 Form 10-K. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes the impact of any recently issued standards, including those issued but not yet effective, will not have a material impact on its financial statements taken as a whole.

ASU 2020-04 - Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying US GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. This ASU is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2020-04 may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470- 20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity.

This ASU (1) simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock by removing the existing guidance in ASC 470-20, Debt: Debt with Conversion and Other Options, that requires entities to account for beneficial conversion features and cash conversion features in equity, separately from the host convertible debt or preferred stock; (2) revises the scope exception from derivative accounting in ASC 815-40 for freestanding financial instruments and embedded features that are both indexed to the issuer’s own stock and classified in stockholders’ equity, by removing certain criteria required for equity classification; and (3) revises the guidance in ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, to require entities to calculate diluted earnings per share (EPS) for convertible instruments by using the if-converted method. In addition, entities must presume share settlement for purposes of calculating diluted EPS when an instrument may be settled in cash or shares.

As a smaller reporting company, ASU 2020-06 is effective for BMT for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Entities should adopt the guidance as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption and cannot adopt the guidance in an interim reporting period. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2020-06 may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
