Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Note 4 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accounting records of Sysorex, TTM Digital and SGS. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Up until November 2, 2021, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, TTM Digital had a 50% interest in Up North Hosting, LLC (“UNH”) which was accounted for as an equity method investment. On November 2, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining 50% interest in UNH making it a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“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 revenues and expenses during each of the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s significant estimates consist of:

● Revenue recognition

● Fair value of digital assets

● Fair value of the Company’s stock

● Expected useful lives and valuation of long-lived assets

● Fair value of derivative liabilities

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity from the date of purchase of years or less to be cash equivalents.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist primarily of cash. The Company’s cash is deposited with commercial banks in the United States and may exceed federally insured limits from time to time. The recorded carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates their fair value. The Company uses a digital asset exchange to custody and liquidate its digital assets. If demand for digital assets decline the Exchange could be negatively impacted. The Company’s digital assets are not insured under the third-party custody provider or exchanges.

Mining Equipment

Mining Equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method regardless of the category of asset. In the fall of 2021, the Company made the decision to divest certain mining equipment and the data center of the TTM Digital reporting unit. As a result, the Company reports these assets as held for sale in discontinued operations and no longer depreciates these assets. Prior to this classification, The Company had determined that the useful life of graphics processing units (“GPUs”) is 3-years and remaining mining equipment   (primarily chassis, power supply units, computer memory, motherboards, risers, and fans) is depreciated over the estimated useful life of 5-years.

Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Upon disposition, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in the statement of operations.

The rate at which the Company generates digital assets and, therefore, consumes the economic benefits of its transaction verification servers are influenced by several factors including the following:

- The complexity of the transaction verification process which is driven by the algorithms contained within the Ethereum open-source software;

- The general availability of appropriate computer processing capacity on a global basis (commonly referred to in the industry as hashing capacity which is measured in Terahash units); and

- Technological obsolescence reflecting rapid development in the transaction verification server industry such that more recently developed hardware is more economically efficient to run in terms of digital assets generated as a function of operating costs, primarily power costs. i.e., the speed of hardware evolution in the industry is such that later hardware models generally have faster processing capacity combined with lower operating costs and on average a lower cost of purchase.

The Company operates in an emerging industry for which limited data is available to make estimates of the useful economic lives and values of specialized equipment. Management will review this estimate quarterly and will revise such estimates as and when data becomes available.

To the extent that any of the assumptions underlying management’s estimate of useful life or values of its mining equipment are subject to revision in a future reporting period either because of changes in circumstances or through the availability of greater quantities of data then the estimated useful life or value could change and have a prospective impact on the carrying amounts of these assets.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets, including mining equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset or group of assets may not be recoverable. The carrying amount is considered not recoverable if the sum of the undiscounted cash flows to be generated from the use and eventual disposition of the asset group is less than the carrying amount of the asset group. If the carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, then the carrying amount is compared to the fair value and an impairment loss is recorded for the difference between the fair value and the carrying amount. An impairment loss of $4.1 million and $3.3 million was recorded for long-lived assets for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021. As of September 15, 2022, Ethereum switched from a Proof of Work model to a Proof of Stake model, The Company is no longer mining Ethereum or any other cryptocurrency. TTM Digital no longer holds any Ethereum or other crypto tokens or crypto assets at this time and does not conduct any mining activities and does not have any plans to mine crypto tokens in the future. TTM Digital is currently exploring sales opportunities for its Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) assets and datacenter located in Lockport, NY.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, the core principle of which 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 to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, five basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized:

● Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;

● Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

● Determination of the transaction price;

● Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

● Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

Mining Revenue

TTM Digital has entered into a mining pool with the operator to provide computing power to the mining pool. The Company is entitled to a fractional share of the fixed cryptocurrency award the mining pool operator receives (less transaction fees to the mining pool operator) for successfully adding a block to the blockchain. The Company’s fractional share is based on the proportion of computing power the Company contributed to the mining pool operator to the total computing power contributed by all mining pool participants in solving the current algorithm. Providing computing power in digital asset transaction verification services is an output of the Company’s ordinary activities. The provision of such computing power is the only performance obligation in the Company’s arrangement with mining pool operators. The transaction consideration the Company receives, if any, is non-cash consideration. The transaction price of the Company’s share of the cryptocurrency award is measured at fair value on the date earned, which is not materially different than the fair value at the time the Company has earned the award from the mining pool. The consideration is all variable under the definition within ASC 606. Because it is not probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue will not occur, the consideration is constrained until the Company successfully places a block and the Company receives confirmation of the consideration it will receive, at which time revenue is recognized. There is no significant financing component in these transactions.

The fair value of the digital asset award received is determined using the quoted price of the related digital asset at the time earned. The Company monitors the market and when an identical digital asset is bought and sold at a price below the Company’s carrying value, often an indicator that impairment is more likely than not, the Company will follow ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, and record an impairment if necessary.

Hardware and Software Revenue Recognition

SGS is a primary resale channel for a large group of vendors and suppliers, including original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), software publishers and wholesale distributors.

The Company accounts for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are established, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. The Company evaluates the following indicators amongst others when determining whether it is acting as a principal in the transaction and recording revenue on a gross basis: (i) the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified product or service, (ii) the Company has inventory risk before the specified good or service has been transferred to a customer or after transfer of control to the customer and (iii) the Company has discretion in establishing the price for the specified good or service. If the terms of a transaction do not indicate the Company is acting as a principal in the transaction, then the Company is acting as an agent in the transaction and the associated revenues are recognized on a net basis.

The Company recognizes revenue once control has passed to the customer. The following indicators are evaluated in determining when control has passed to the customer: (i) the Company has a right to payment for the product or service, (ii) the customer has legal title to the product, (iii) the Company has transferred physical possession of the product to the customer, (iv) the customer has the significant risk and rewards of ownership of the product and (v) the customer has accepted the product. The Company’s products can be delivered to customers in a variety of ways, including (i) as physical product shipped from the Company’s warehouse, (ii) via drop-shipment by the vendor or supplier or (iii) via electronic delivery of keys for software licenses. The Company’s shipping terms typically specify F.O.B. destination.

The Company leverages drop-shipment arrangements with many of its vendors and suppliers to deliver products to its customers without having to physically hold the inventory at its warehouse. The Company is the principal in the transaction and recognizes revenue for drop-shipment arrangements on a gross basis.

The Company may provide integration of products from multiple vendors as a solution it sells to the customer. In this arrangement, the Company provides a direct warranty to the customer with the Company’s own personnel as the customer requires a warranty on the solution and not individual vendor products. This type of warranty is sold integral to the overall solution quoted to the customer. The Company considers these service-type warranties to be performance obligations of the principal from the underlying products that make up a solution and therefore is acting as a principal in the transaction and records revenue on a gross basis over time.

License and Maintenance Services Revenue Recognition

SGS provides a customized design and configuration solution for its customers and in this capacity resells hardware, software and other IT equipment license and maintenance services in exchange for fixed fees. The Company selects the vendors and sells the products and services, including maintenance services, that best fit the customer’s needs. For sales of maintenance services and warranties, the customer obtains control at the point in time that the services to be provided by a third-party vendor are purchased by the customer and therefore the Company’s performance obligation to provide the overall systems solution is satisfied at that time. The Company’s customers generally pay within 30 to 60 days of the receipt of a customer-approved invoice.

For resale of services, including maintenance services, warranties, and extended warranties, the Company is acting as an agent as the primary activity for those services are fulfilled by a third party. While the Company may facilitate and act as a first responder for these services, the third-party service providers perform the primary maintenance and warranty services for the customer. Therefore, the Company is not primarily responsible for performing these services and revenue is recorded on a net basis.

SGS’s professional services include fixed fee contracts. Fixed fees are paid monthly, in phases, or upon acceptance of deliverables. For fixed fee contracts, the Company recognizes revenue evenly over the service period using a time-based measure because the Company is providing continuous service. Anticipated losses are recognized as soon as they become known. For the year ended December 31, 2022, SGS did not incur any such losses. These amounts are based on known and estimated factors. Revenues from time and material or firm fixed price long-term and short-term contracts are derived principally with various United States government agencies.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment by customers. The Company records receivables when revenue is recognized prior to payment and there is an unconditional right to payment. Alternatively, when payment precedes the provision of the related services, the Company records deferred revenue until the performance obligations are satisfied. The following table details the contract balances presented (in thousands):

Deferred Revenue:

	Balance as of 12/31/2021			Additions		Revenue Amortization		Deletions		Balance as of 12/31/2022
Customer A	$	246		$	639	$	476	$	-	$	409
Customer B		725			15		236		-		504
Various		-			43		25		-		18
Valuation Adjustment		(39	)		-		-		39		-
	$	932		$	697	$	737	$	39	$	931

Accounts Receivable, Net

Account receivables are stated at the amount the Company expects to collect. The Company recognizes an allowance for doubtful accounts to ensure accounts receivables are not overstated due to un-collectability. Bad debt reserves are maintained for various customers based on a variety of factors, including the length of time the receivables are past due, significant one-time events and historical experience. An additional reserve for individual accounts is recorded when the Company becomes aware of a customer’s inability to meet its financial obligation, such as in the case of bankruptcy filings, or deterioration in the customer’s operating results or financial position. If circumstances related to customers change, estimates of the recoverability of receivables would be further adjusted. The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $0.05 million as of December 31, 2022, and $0.05 million as of December 31, 2021.

Digital Assets

Digital assets (predominantly Ethereum) are included in current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The classification of digital assets as a current asset has been made after the Company’s consideration of the consistent daily trading volume on cryptocurrency exchange markets, there are no limitations or restrictions on Company’s ability to sell Ethereum, and the pattern of actual sales of Ethereum by the Company. Digital assets purchased are recorded at cost and cryptocurrencies awarded to the Company through its mining activities are accounted for in connection with the Company’s revenue recognition policy disclosed above.

Digital assets held are accounted for as intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is not amortized but assessed for impairment annually, or more frequently, when events or changes in circumstances occur indicating that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived asset is impaired. ASC-350-35-19 requires an impairment at any time the fair value of the digital asset is below its carrying value. Impairment exists when the carrying amount exceeds its fair value, which is measured using the quoted price of the digital asset at the time its fair value is being measured. To the extent an impairment loss is recognized, the loss establishes the new cost basis of the asset. Subsequent reversal of impairment losses is not permitted. The Company recorded a $2.7 million and $0.7 million impairment charge during the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively.

Digital assets awarded to the Company through its mining activities are included within operating activities on the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows and it’s mining activities are disclosed in Note 5-Discontinued Operations. The sales of digital assets are included within investing activities in the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company accounts for its gains or losses in accordance with the first in first out (FIFO) method of accounting. The Company recognized realized gains (losses) through the sale and disbursement of digital assets during the year ended December 31, 2022, and 2021 of $1.7 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The Company accounts for intangible assets under ASC 350-30, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other. Goodwill represents the cost of a business acquisition in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized and is reviewed for impairment annually as of December 31, or more frequently if facts and circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. If it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the company performs a quantitative test to identify and measure the amount of goodwill impairment loss. The Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount exceeds fair value, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered impaired, and that excess is recognized as a goodwill impairment loss. As of December 31, 2022, the Company determined the carrying amount of its goodwill exceeded the fair value. The Company recorded a $1.6 million goodwill impairment loss.

Intangible assets with finite lives are comprised of customer contracts, and trademarks that are amortized on a straight-line basis over their expected useful lives. The carrying value of finite-lived assets and the remaining useful lives are reviewed at least annually to determine if circumstances exist which may indicate a potential impairment or revision to the amortization period.

Investments in Equity

The Company’s investment in Ostendo include an investment in an equity instruments, accounted for under ASC 321 Investments – Equity Securities, where the Company (1) holds less than 20% ownership in the entity, and (2) does not exercise significant influence. These are recorded at cost and adjusted for observable transactions for same or similar investments of the same issuer (referred to as the measurement alternative) or impairment.

Fair Value

The Company follows the accounting guidance under FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements, for its fair value measurements of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Under this accounting guidance, fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels as follows:

Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 —  observable inputs other than Level 1, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, and model-derived prices whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable; and

Level 3 —  assets and liabilities whose significant value drivers are unobservable.

Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs are based on the Company’s market assumptions. Unobservable inputs require significant management judgment or estimation. In some cases, the inputs used to measure an asset or liability may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is required to be classified using the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Such determination requires significant management judgment.

Certain nonfinancial assets such as property and equipment, land and intangible assets are subject to nonrecurring fair value measurements if they are deemed to be impaired. The impairment models used for nonfinancial assets depend on the type of asset.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded impairment charges related to assets measured on a non-recurring basis of $4.1 million for graphics processing units in Note 5 – Discontinued Operations and $2.7 million for digital assets in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company utilized a market approach as of December 31, 2022, to determine fair value.

The Company evaluated its equity investment in Ostendo of $1.6 million and its Style Hunter investment and recorded an impairment of approximately $0.2 million, reported in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and $0.5 million, reported in Note 5 – Discontinued Operations, respectively The Company utilized inputs of market data and trends of peer group companies to determine the fair value of the equity investment.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accrued liabilities, and accounts payable, are of approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Held for Sale Classification

The Company classifies a business as held for sale in the period in which management commits to a plan to sell the business, the business is available for immediate sale in its present condition, an active program to complete the plan to sell the business is initiated, the sale of the business within one year is probable and the business is being marketed at a reasonable price in relation to its fair value.

Newly acquired businesses that meet the held-for-sale classification criteria upon acquisition are reported as discontinued operations. Upon a business’ classification as held for sale, net assets are measured for impairment. Goodwill impairment is measured in accordance with the method described in the accounting policy. An impairment loss is recorded for long-lived assets held for sale when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value less cost to sell. Other assets and liabilities are generally measured for impairment by comparing their carrying values to their respective fair values. A long-lived asset shall not be depreciated or amortized while it is classified as held for sale.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation awards to employees and directors in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 requires all stock-based compensation to employees, including grants of employee stock options, and restricted stock, to be recognized in the consolidated statements of operations based on their grant date fair values. The fair value of stock options is estimated as of the date of grant using the Monte Carlo Simulation option pricing model. The fair value of restricted stock is calculated as the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of the date of the grant. The expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period

Pre-funded Warrants / Rights to Shares

The Company has certain forward sale contracts for equity issuances (“Forward Contracts”) where the Holder has provided all funding towards the equity issuance and additional consideration is not required for equity issuance. The Forward Contracts are referred to as Pre-funded Warrants or Rights to Shares. Shares will be issued upon the contractual terms of the Forward Contracts. The Company includes the proceeds of the Forward Contracts in equity in Additional paid-in-capital. In accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, the underlying shares to be issued are included in the number of outstanding shares used for Basic earnings per share.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, in which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred income taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is required to the extent any deferred tax assets may not be realizable.

ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, defines uncertainty in income taxes and the evaluation of a tax position as a two-step process. The first step is to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of any related appeals or litigation based on the technical merits of that position. The second step is to measure a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold to determine the amount of benefit to be recognized in the financial statements. A tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely than-not threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent period in which the threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not criteria should be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer met. The Company had no uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2022, and 2021.

Derivative Liabilities

The Company evaluates its convertible instruments, options, warrants, or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The Company evaluates whether the amount of common stock on a as converted basis is in excess of its authorized share total which, if in excess, would result in derivative accounting treatment. The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the derivative is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the statement of operations as other income (expense). Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC Topic 815 are reclassified to a liability at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date.

Convertible Debt

The Company’s debt instruments contain a host liability, freestanding warrants, and an embedded conversion feature. The Company uses the guidance under FASB ASC Topic 815 Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”) to determine if the embedded conversion feature must be bifurcated and separately accounted for as a derivative under ASC 815. It also determines whether any embedded conversion features requiring bifurcation and/or freestanding warrants qualify for any scope exceptions contained within ASC 815. Generally, contracts issued or held by a reporting entity that are both (i) indexed to its own stock, and (ii) classified in shareholders equity, would not be considered a derivative for the purposes of applying ASC 815. Any embedded conversion features and/or freestanding warrants that do not meet the scope exception noted above are classified as derivative liabilities, initially measured at fair value, and remeasured at fair value each reporting period with change in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. Any embedded conversion features and/or freestanding warrants that meet the scope exception under ASC 815 are initially recorded at their relative fair value in paid-in-capital and are not remeasured at fair value in future periods.

The host debt instrument is initially recorded at its relative fair value in long-term debt. The host debt instrument is accounted for in accordance with guidance applicable to non-convertible debt under FASB ASC Topic 470 Debt (“ASC 470”) and is accreted to its face value over the term of the debt with accretion expense and periodic interest expense recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.

Issuance costs are allocated to each instrument in the same proportion as the proceeds that are allocated to each instrument. Issuance costs allocated to the debt hosted instrument are netted against the proceeds allocated to the debt host. Issuance costs allocated to freestanding warrants classified in equity are recorded in paid-in-capital.

Leases

The right of use asset (“ROU”) on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet represents a lessee’s right to use an asset over the life of a lease. Operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term, plus any lease payments made to the lessor before the lease commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred, minus any lease incentives received. The amortization period for the right of use asset is from the lease commencement date to the earlier of the end of the lease term or the end of the useful life of the asset. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has elected to exclude all short-term leases (i.e., leases with a term of 12 months or less) from recognition on the balance sheet.

The Company’s lease liabilities are determined by calculating the present value of all future lease payments using the rate implicit in the lease if it can be readily determined, or the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at the inception of the lease to determine the present value of future lease payments as the rate implicit in its leases could not be readily determined.

Net Loss per Share

Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus potentially dilutive common shares. Convertible debt, restricted stock, stock options and warrants are excluded from the diluted net loss per share calculation when their impact is antidilutive. The Company reported a net loss for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, and as a result, all potentially dilutive common shares are considered antidilutive for this period.

The Company includes potentially issuable shares in the Weighted-average common shares – basic that include warrants and other agreements that are exercisable for little or no consideration without substantive contingencies and others once any contingencies relative to the issuance of the shares is resolved.

Computations of basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding were as follows for the periods reported:

	December 31,
	2022		2021
Weighted-average common shares outstanding		840,858,474		128,603,982
Weighted-average potential common shares considered outstanding		3,000,000		10,457,102
Weighted-average common shares outstanding – basic		843,858,474		139,061,084
Dilutive effect of options, warrants and restricted stock		-		-
Weighted-average common shares outstanding – diluted		843,858,474		139,061,084
Options, restricted stock, and warrants and convertible debt excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because the effect of inclusion would be anti-dilutive		129,509,270		6,603,716

Recent Accounting Standards

The Company continually assesses any new accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability. When it is determined that a new accounting pronouncement affects the Company’s financial reporting, the Company undertakes a study to determine the consequences of the change to its consolidated financial statements and assures that there are proper controls in place to ascertain that the Company’s consolidated financial statements properly reflect the change.

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which was codified with its subsequent amendments as Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (“ASC 326”). ASC 326 seeks to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments, including trade receivables, and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. The amendments require an entity to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in other GAAP with a methodology that reflects current expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The updated guidance is effective for the Company for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022, and early adoption is permitted.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2020, and the adoption did not have a material impact on the financial statements and related disclosures.

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt-Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), (“ASU 2021-04”). This ASU reduces diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (for example, warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. This ASU provides guidance for a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that is not within the scope of another Topic. It specifically addresses: (1) how an entity should treat a modification of the terms or conditions or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange; (2) how an entity should measure the effect of a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange; and (3) how an entity should recognize the effect of a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange. This ASU will be effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. An entity should apply the amendments prospectively to modifications or exchanges occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The adoption of ASU 2021-04 on January 1, 2022, did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts reported on our Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 2) have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. The Company has retroactively restated its assets reported as discontinued operations as 100% held for sale. Costs associated with the TTM Digital reporting unit were reclassified from the consolidated statement of operations to discontinued operations.

Emerging Growth Company

Sysorex is an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act. As such, Sysorex is eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that apply to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including compliance with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company may take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act, for complying with new or revised accounting standards, meaning that Sysorex, as an emerging growth company, can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. Sysorex has elected to take advantage of this extended transition period, and therefore our financial statements may not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.
