The Company's consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2019 do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Spin-Off

On August 31, 2018 (the "Distribution Date"), the Company became an independent company through the pro rata distribution by Inpixon of 100% of the outstanding common stock of Sysorex to Inpixon equity holders (the "Distribution").

In connection with the initial Distribution of its common stock, the Company has 117,917 shares of common stock reserved for issuance in treasury (a) to the holders of certain Inpixon warrants who will be entitled to receive shares of the Company's common stock if the warrants are exercised, and (b) the holders of Inpixon securities that were subject to beneficial ownership limitations in connection with the distribution and for future issuances. The Company's common stock began regular-way trading on the OTC Markets under the symbol "SYSX" on September 4, 2018.
