BIO-KEY INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2021 (Unaudited)

1.

NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Nature of Business

The Company, founded in 1993, develops and markets proprietary fingerprint identification biometric technology and software solutions enterprise-ready identity access management solutions to commercial, government and education customers throughout the United States and internationally. The Company was a pioneer in developing automated, finger identification technology that supplements or compliments other methods of identification and verification, such as personal inspection identification, passwords, tokens, smart cards, ID cards, PKI, credit cards, passports, driver’s licenses, OTP or other form of possession or knowledge-based credentialing. Additionally, advanced BIO-key® technology has been, and is, used to improve both the accuracy and speed of competing finger-based biometrics.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BIO-key International, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “BIO-key”) and are stated in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. Pursuant to such rules and regulations, certain financial information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements have been condensed or omitted. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all necessary adjustments, consisting only of those of a recurring nature, and disclosures to present fairly the Company’s financial position and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The balance sheet at December 31, 2020 was derived from the audited financial statements, but does not include all of the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10 -K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on March 29, 2021.

Effective November 20, 2020, the Company implemented a reverse stock split of its outstanding common stock at a ratio of 1 -for- 8 . All share figures and results are reflected on a post-split basis.

Foreign Currency

The Company accounts for foreign currency transactions pursuant to ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters ("ASC 830” ). The functional currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar, which is the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates. In accordance with ASC 830, monetary balances denominated in or linked to foreign currency are stated on the basis of the exchange rates prevailing at the applicable balance sheet date.  For foreign currency transactions included in the statement of operations, the exchange rates applicable on the relevant transaction dates are used. Gains or losses arising from changes in the exchange rates used in the translation of such transactions and from the remeasurement of the monetary balance sheet items are recorded as gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016 - 13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326 ), referred to herein as ASU 2016 - 13, which significantly changes how entities will account for credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. ASU 2016 - 13 replaces the existing incurred loss model with an expected credit loss model that requires entities to estimate an expected lifetime credit loss on most financial assets and certain other instruments. Under ASU 2016 - 13 credit impairment is recognized as an allowance for credit losses, rather than as a direct write-down of the amortized cost basis of a financial asset. The impairment allowance is a valuation account deducted from the amortized cost basis of financial assets to present the net amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. Once the new pronouncement is adopted by the Company, the allowance for credit losses must be adjusted for management’s current estimate at each reporting date. The new guidance provides no threshold for recognition of impairment allowance. Therefore, entities must also measure expected credit losses on assets that have a low risk of loss. For instance, trade receivables that are either current or not yet due may not require an allowance reserve under currently generally accepted accounting principles, but under the new standard, the Company will have to estimate an allowance for expected credit losses on trade receivables under ASU 2016 - 13. ASU 2016 - 13 is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2022 for smaller reporting companies (quarter ending March 31, 2023 for the Company). Early adoption is permitted. The Company will evaluate the impact ASU 2016 - 13 will have on its consolidated financial statements in a future period closer to the date of adoption.

9

Effective January 1, 2021, the Company adopted ASU 2019 - 12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019 - 12” ) to reduce the cost and complexity in accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019 - 12 removes certain exceptions related to the approach for intra-period tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. ASU 2019 - 12 also amends other aspects of the guidance to help simplify and promote consistent application of U.S. GAAP.  Most amendments within ASU 2019 - 12 are required to be applied on a prospective basis, while certain amendments must be applied on a retrospective or modified retrospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2019 - 12 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standard, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Reclassification

Reclassifications occurred to certain prior year amounts in order to conform to the current year classifications.  The reclassifications have no effect on the reported net loss.

2.

GOING CONCERN

The Company has historically financed its operations through access to the capital markets by issuing secured and convertible debt securities, convertible preferred stock, common stock, and through factoring receivables. The Company currently requires approximately $ 735,000 per month to conduct operations, a monthly amount that it has been unable to consistently achieve through revenue generation.  During the first half of 2021, the Company generated approximately $ 2,880,728 of revenue, which is below its average monthly cash requirements. The Company has also invested a considerable amount of cash in inventory, which it will need to sell to generate revenue for a profitable gross margin. Additionally, the ongoing threat of COVID- 19 and its variation, may have an impact on future revenue and operations. During 2020, the Company raised approximately $ 24,000,000 from financing activities and at June 30, 2021 had $ 11,479,691 in cash. As of the date of this report, the Company believes it has enough cash for at least twelve months of operations from the date of the filing of this report.

3.

REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606” ), revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these services. To achieve this core principle, the Company applies the following five steps:

Identify the contract with a customer

Identify the performance obligations in the contract

Determine the transaction price

Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract

Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation

Software licenses

Software license revenue consist of fees for perpetual and subscription licenses for one or more of the Company’s biometric fingerprint solutions or identity access management solutions. Revenue is recognized at a point in time once the software is available to the customer for download. Software license contracts are generally invoiced in full on execution of the arrangement.

Hardware

Hardware revenue consists of fees for associated equipment sold with or without a software license arrangement, such as servers, locks and fingerprint readers. Customers are not obligated to buy third party hardware from the Company and may procure these items from a number of suppliers. Revenue is recognized at a point in time once the hardware is shipped to the customer. Hardware items are generally invoiced in full on execution of the arrangement.

Support and Maintenance

Support and maintenance revenue consists of fees for unspecified upgrades, telephone assistance and bug fixes. The Company satisfies its support and maintenance performance obligation by providing “stand-ready” assistance as required over the contract period. The Company records deferred revenue (contract liability) at time of prepayment until the term of the contract ends. Revenue is recognized over time on a ratable basis over the contract term. Support and maintenance contracts are up to one to five years in length and are generally invoiced in advance at the beginning of the term. Support and maintenance revenue for subscription licenses is carved out of the total license cost at 18 % and recognized on a ratable basis over the license term.

Professional Services

Professional services revenues consist primarily of fees for deployment and optimization services, as well as training. The majority of the Company’s consulting contracts are billed on a time and materials basis, and revenue is recognized based on the amount billable to the customer in accordance with practical expedient ASC 606 - 10 - 55 - 18. For other professional services contracts, the Company utilizes an input method and recognizes revenue based on labor hours expended to date relative to the total labor hours expected to be required to satisfy its performance obligation.

Contracts with Multiple Performance Obligations

Some contracts with customers contain multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, the Company accounts for individual performance obligations separately if they are distinct. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis.  The standalone selling prices are determined based on overall pricing objectives, taking into consideration market conditions and other factors, including the value of the contracts, the cloud applications sold, customer demographics, geographic locations, and the number and types of users within the contracts.

11

The Company considered several factors in determining that control transfers to the customer upon shipment of hardware and availability of download of software.  These factors include that legal title transfers to the customer, the Company has a present right to payment, and the customer has assumed the risks and rewards of ownership upon shipment of hardware and availability of download of software.

Accounts receivable from customers are typically due within 30 days of invoicing.  The Company does not record a reserve for product returns or warranties as amounts are deemed immaterial based on historical experience.

Costs to Obtain and Fulfill a Contract

Costs to obtain and fulfill a contract are predominantly sales commissions earned by the sales force and are considered incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining a contract with a customer. These costs are deferred and then amortized over a period of benefit determined to be four years. These costs are included as capitalized contract costs on the balance sheet. The period of benefit was determined by taking into consideration customer contracts, technology, and other factors based on historical evidence. Amortization expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligations

ASC 606 requires that the Company disclose the aggregate amount of transaction price that is allocated to performance obligations that have not yet been satisfied as of June 30, 2021. The guidance provides certain practical expedients that limit this requirement, which the Company’s contracts meet as follows:

The performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less, in accordance with ASC 606 - 10 - 50 - 14.

At June 30, 2021, deferred revenue represents the Company’s remaining performance obligations related to prepaid support and maintenance, all of which is expected to be recognized from one to five years.

All of the Company's performance obligations, and associated revenue, are generally transferred to customers at a point in time, with the exception of support and maintenance, and professional services, which are generally transferred to the customer over time.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue includes customer advances and amounts that have been paid by customer for which the contractual maintenance terms have not yet occurred. The majority of these amounts are related to maintenance contracts for which the revenue is recognized ratably over the applicable term, which generally is 12 - 60 months. Maintenance revenue which would be recognized based on contract periods subsequent to 12 months from the balance sheet date, is segregated as long term deferred revenue. Maintenance contracts include provisions for unspecified when-and-if available product updates and customer telephone support services. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, amounts in deferred revenue were approximately $ 621,000 and $ 702,000 , respectively. Revenue recognized during the three and six -months ended June 30, 2021 from amounts included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the period was approximately $ 124,000 and $ 430,000 , respectively. The Company did not recognize any revenue from performance obligations satisfied in prior periods.

4.

PISTOLSTAR, INC. ACQUISITION

On June 30, 2020, the Company acquired PistolStar, Inc., a private company based in the United States, which provides enterprise-ready identity access management solutions, including multi-factor authentication, identity-as-a-service, single sign-on and self-service password reset to commercial, government and education customers throughout the United States and internationally.

From April 10, 2020 until the Company acquired PistolStar, it licensed PortalGuard®, PistolStar’s authentication software, which the Company combines with its biometric authentication solutions offered to existing and prospective customers.

The total purchase price of $ 2.5 million included cash payment of $ 2.0 million and the issuance of a $ 500,000 promissory note.

The promissory note, which was issued to the previous owner of PistolStar, accrued interest at 4 % per annum and was payable in four installments over the 12 -month period following the closing. The balance of the note at December 31, 2020 was $ 232,000 , net of the unamortized debt discount. On January 21, 2021, the Company paid the $ 250,000 balance due on the note.

The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was less than the purchase price, resulting in the recognition of goodwill. The goodwill reflected the value of the synergies the Company expected to realize and the assembled workforce.

5.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

Accounts receivable are carried at original amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a monthly basis. Management determines the allowance for doubtful receivables by regularly evaluating individual customer receivables and considering a customer’s financial condition, credit history, and current economic conditions. Accounts receivable are written off when deemed uncollectible.

The Company entered into an accounts receivable factoring arrangement with a financial institution (the “Factor”) which has been extended to October 31, 2021. Pursuant to the terms of the arrangement, the Company, from time to time, sells to the Factor a minimum of $ 150,000 per quarter of certain of its accounts receivable balances on a non-recourse basis for credit approved accounts. The Factor remits 35 % of the foreign and 75 % of the domestic accounts receivable balance to the Company (the “Advance Amount”), with the remaining balance, less fees, forwarded to the Company once the Factor collects the full accounts receivable balance from the customer. In addition, the Company, from time to time, receives over advances from the Factor. Factoring fees range from 2.75 % to 15 % of the face value of the invoice factored, and are determined by the number of days required for collection of the invoice. The cost of factoring is included in selling, general and administrative expenses. The cost of factoring was as follows:

NOTE RECEIVABLE

During the third quarter of 2020, the Company loaned $ 295,000 as an advance to Technology Transfer Institute (“TTI”) to aid in fulfilling the African contracts.

CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

There was no balance outstanding for convertible notes payable as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Details for Notes that were either converted or redeemed during the 2020 fiscal year were as follows:

Securities Purchase Agreement dated July 10, 2019

On July 10, 2019, the Company issued a $ 3,060,000 principal amount senior secured convertible note (the “Original Note”). At closing, a total of $ 2,550,000 was funded. The original issue discount was $ 510,000 . The principal amount due of the Original Note was due and payable as follows: $ 918,000 was due 180 days after funding, $ 1,071,000 was due 270 days after funding, and the remaining balance due 12 months after the date of funding.

The Original Note was secured by a lien on substantially all of the Company’s assets and properties and was convertible at the option of the Investor in shares of common stock at a fixed conversion price of $ 12.00 per share.

In connection with the closing of the Original Note, the Company issued a five -year warrant to the Investor to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock at a fixed exercise price of $ 12.00 per share, paid a $ 50,000 commitment fee, and issued 33,334 shares of common stock in payment of a $ 400,000 due diligence fee. The Company also paid banker fees of $ 193,500 and legal fees of $ 71,330 . The valuation of the warrant of $ 595,662 was recorded to debt discount and was amortized over the life of the Original Note. The fees associated with the agreement were allocated to debt issuance costs and additional paid-in capital based on the respective ratio of the valuation of the note and warrant. Amortization of the debt issuance costs and debt discount are included in interest expense on the statement of operations.

On March 12, 2020, the Company issued a $ 3,789,000 principal amount senior secured convertible note (the “Amended Note”), which replaced the Original Note and included an additional $ 729,000 in interest due to the debt restructuring. The principal amount was due and payable in full on April 13, 2020. The Amended Note was secured by a lien on substantially all of the Company’s assets and properties and was convertible at the option of the Investor into shares of common stock at a fixed conversion price of $ 5.20 per share. The Company accounted for the transaction as a debt extinguishment and, therefore, the balance of the fees and unamortized discount associated with the Original Note were written off and included as loss on extinguishment of debt. On the day of the amendment, the closing stock price for the day was $ 6.08 , which resulted in a beneficial conversion of $ 0.88 per share outstanding or $ 641,215 to be amortized to interest expense over the term of the Amended Note, as adjusted for any debt conversion.

On April 12, 2020, and May 6, 2020, the Company entered into amendments (the “Amendments”) to the Amended Note. The Amendments extended the maturity date to June 12, 2020 and extended the Investor’s right to convert the Amended Note into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $ 5.20 per share through June 12, 2020. All other provisions of the Amended Note remained the same.

Until the second anniversary of the closing, the investor had the right to purchase up to 20% of the securities the Company issues in any future private placement, subject to certain exceptions for, among other things, strategic investments.

On June 10, 2020, the investor converted the last of the remaining principal into shares of common stock for payment in full, and the remaining principal balance was $ 0 . The Amended Note amount of $ 3,789,000 was converted into 728,654 shares of common stock in 2020.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Management s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is provided as a supplement to and should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related information contained herein and our audited financial statements as of December 31, 2020.

OVERVIEW

We are a leading identity access management (IAM) platform provider for the enterprise and large-scale customer and civil ID solutions.  Built to leverage BIO-key’s world-class biometric core platform among 14 other strong authentication factors, BIO-key PortalGuard® and hosted PortalGuard IDaaS (identity as a service) are platforms that enable our customers to securely and easily assure that only the right people can access the right systems.  PortalGuard goes beyond traditional multifactor authentication (MFA) solutions by addressing sizeable gaps, such as allowing roving users to biometrically authenticate at any workstation without using their phones or tokens, eliminating unauthorized account delegation, detecting duplicate users, and accommodating in-person identification.

Millions use BIO-key every day to securely access a variety of cloud, mobile and web applications, on-premise and cloud-based hypervisor servers from all of their devices. Employees, contractors, students and faculty sign in through PortalGuard to seamlessly and securely access the applications they need to do their work, without relying on personal phone use or per-user tokens. Organizations use our platform to securely collaborate with their supply chain and partners, and to provide their customers with flexible, resilient user experiences online or in-person.

Large-scale customer and civil ID customers use our scalable biometric management platform and FBI-certified scanner hardware to manage enrollment, de-duplication and authentication for millions of users.  One large bank has enrolled and identifies over 10 million of their customers in branches on a daily basis.

We sell our branded biometric and FIDO authentication hardware as accessories to our IAM platforms, so that customers can have a single vendor providing all components of their IAM solution.  We do not mandate BIO-key hardware and our NIST-certified biometric platform is unique in that it supports interoperable mixing and matching combinations of fingerprint scanners regardless of manufacturer, so that the right scanner can be deployed for the right use case, without mandating the user of a particular scanner.

Security-conscious developers leverage our platform APIs and federation interfaces to securely and efficiently embed biometric and MFA identity capabilities into their software.   Our approach to IDaaS allows our customers to efficiently scale their security and identity infrastructures to protect both internal cloud workforce- and external customer-facing applications.

20

We operate a SaaS business model with customers subscribing to a term use of our software for annual recurring revenue. We sell our products directly through our field and inside sales teams, as well as indirectly through our network of channel partners including resellers, system integrators, master agents and other distribution partners. Our subscription fees include a term license of hosted or on-premise product and technical support and maintenance of our platform. We base subscription fees primarily on the products used and the number of users enrolled in our platform. We generate subscription fees pursuant to noncancelable contracts with a weighted average duration of approximately one year.

PortalGuard is used by our customers to manage and secure IT access by their employees, contractors and partners, which we call workforce identity. PortalGuard is also used to manage and secure the identities of an organization’s customers through integration of APIs we have developed and industry-standard federation standards, which we call customer identity. We invoice customers in advance in annual and multi-year prepaid installments for subscriptions to our platforms.

Strategic Outlook and Recent Developments

Historically, our largest market has been access control within highly regulated industries such as government, financial services, and healthcare.  In 2019, we became the go-to biometric authentication provider for board of election offices as eight offices deployed our hardware and software to secure internal access to the voter registration database. We will seek to extend this footprint in 2021 and beyond.

In 2020, we announced that we had secured two of the largest contracts in our history, with our partner Technology Transfer Institute.  The contracts, valued at a combined $75,000,000, are for large-scale identification projects in Africa and Nigeria. Under the first contract, we will provide biometric authentication to support the infrastructure of a new e-commerce project developed with the expectation to generate more than one million jobs in Nigeria. The second contract provides for BIO-key hardware and software to be used by a leading African telecommunications company to secure internal access to customer data. Currently Africa and the surrounding regions are receiving government funding to expand the use of biometric authentication solutions to help establish trustworthy government programs and reduce fraud.  We received our first purchase order under these contracts in the fourth quarter of 2020. We received new orders in the first quarter of 2021 from a new customer in connection with the large-scale identification project, which we shipped in March 2021.  The COVID-19 pandemic has and may continue to delay the rollout of these programs.

We plan to have a more significant role in the IAM market which continues to expand. We plan to offer customers a suite of authentication options that complement our biometric solutions. The more well-rounded offerings of authentication options will allow customers to customize their approach to authentication all under one umbrella.

We expect to grow our business within government services and highly regulated industries in which we have historically had a strong presence including financial services, higher education, and healthcare.  We believe that continued heightened security and privacy requirements in these industries, and as colleges and universities continue operating in remote environments, we will generate increased demand for security solutions, including biometrics. In addition, we expect that the compatible, yet superior portable biometric user experience offered by our technology for Windows 10 users will accelerate the demand for our computer network log-on solutions and fingerprint readers.  Through value add-offerings via direct sales, resellers, and strategic partnerships with leading higher education platform providers, we expect to continue to grow our installed base.

Our primary sales strategies are focused on (i) increased marketing efforts into the IAM market, (ii) dedicated pursuit of large-scale identification projects across the globe, and (iii) growing our channel alliance program which currently includes more than one hundred participants and is starting to generate incremental revenues.

A second component of our growth strategy is to pursue strategic acquisitions of select businesses and assets in the IAM space.  In furtherance of this strategy, we are active in the industry and regularly evaluate businesses that we believe will either provide an entry into new market verticals or be synergistic with our existing operations and in either case, be accretive to earnings.  We cannot provide any assurance as to whether we will be able to complete any acquisition and if completed, successfully integrate any business we acquire into our operations.

The outbreak of a novel strain of the coronavirus, COVID-19, has been recognized as a pandemic by the World Health Organization. This outbreak has severely restricted the level of economic activity around the world. In response to this coronavirus outbreak the governments of many countries, states, cities and other geographic regions have taken preventative or protective actions, including imposing restrictions on travel and business operations and requiring individuals to limit time outside of their homes. Given the uncertainty regarding the spread of this coronavirus, the related financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

The complications caused by COVID-19 have forced organizations to quickly adapt to a work from home remote business model. This increases the risk of unauthorized users, phishing attacks, and hackers who are eager to take advantage of the challenges of securing remote workers. We believe that biometrics should play a key role in remote user authentication.

Revenues

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, service revenues included approximately $226,000 and $205,000, respectively, of recurring maintenance and support revenue, and approximately $61,000 and $25,000 respectively, of non-recurring custom services revenue.  Recurring service revenue increased $21,000 or 10% in 2021 which was due largely to the additional service revenue from PistolStar customers and a three-year contract extension from a Fortune 500 telecommunications customer. Non-recurring custom services increased 144% due to additional new customer installations and upgrades from on-premise to cloud deployments. As our customer base continues to grow, we expect the service revenue to increase in future periods.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, license revenue increased substantially from the corresponding period in 2020. We increased both the variation and number of customers, including additional revenue from the PistolStar software and cloud migrations, primarily in the higher education market.  Growth was also due to the fact during the three months ended June 30 2020 our sales pipeline was adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, hardware sales decreased by 20%. The decrease was due to smaller orders in 2021 as compared to 2020.

Costs of goods sold

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, cost of service increased approximately $66,000 or 71% to $158,440 due to the increased revenue and support for the PortalGuard installations, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, license fees increased to $48,373 from $8,255 during the three months ended June 30, 2020, due largely to an increase in revenue. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, hardware costs decreased to $32,756 from $47,527 during the three months ended June 30, 2020, related to lower costs associated with less hardware revenue.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flows

Operating activities overview

Net cash used by operations during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was approximately $5,242,000. Items of note included:

Net positive cash flows related to adjustments for non-cash expenses of approximately $565,000.

Net positive cash flows related to accounts payable and accruals of approximately $687,000.

Negative cash flows related to changes in accounts receivable, inventory, prepayments and deferred revenue of approximately $4,301,000, due to working capital management.

Investing activities overview

Approximately $16,000 was used for capital expenditures during the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Financing activities overview

Approximately $255,000 was used for financing activities during the three months ended June 30, 2021 due to the repayment of notes payable.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since our inception, our capital needs have been principally met through proceeds from the sale of equity and debt securities. We expect capital expenditures to be less than $100,000 during the next twelve months.

Between January and June 2020, we issued four convertible notes with principal amount totaling approximately $4,500,000.  All amounts were repaid in June and July 2020, primarily from the proceeds of the underwritten public offering, discussed below.

On April 20, 2020, we entered into a Paycheck Protection Program Term Note (the “SVB Note”) with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”). We received total proceeds of approximately $341,000 which was used in accordance with the requirements of the CARES Act. The full amount of the SVB Note has been forgiven.

On July 23, 2020, we completed an underwritten public offering of shares of common stock and warrants resulting in net proceeds of approximately $22.7 million, inclusive of the over-allotment and after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and estimated offering expenses. We used approximately $4.2 million of the net proceeds to repay all outstanding amounts due under outstanding convertible promissory notes at that time. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we have invested approximately $4 million in deposits for and receipt of inventory to support our African contracts. The balance is being used for working capital purposes.

Liquidity outlook

At June 30, 2021, our total cash and cash equivalents were approximately $11,500,000, as compared to approximately $17,000,000 at December 31, 2020.

As discussed above, we have historically financed our operations through access to the capital markets by issuing secured and convertible debt securities, convertible preferred stock, common stock, and through factoring receivables. We currently require approximately $735,000 per month to conduct our operations, a monthly amount that we have been unable to consistently achieve through revenue generation.  During for the first six months of 2021, we generated $2,880,728 of revenue, which is below our average monthly requirements.  If we are unable to generate sufficient revenue to fund current operations and execute our business plan, we may need to obtain additional third-party financing. As of the date of this report, we do not expect that we will need to obtain additional financing during the next twelve months.

Our long-term viability and growth will depend upon the successful commercialization of our technologies and our ability to obtain adequate financing. To the extent that we require such additional financing, no assurance can be given that any form of additional financing will be available on terms acceptable to us, that adequate financing will be obtained to meet our needs, or that such financing would not be dilutive to existing stockholders. If available financing is insufficient or unavailable or we fail to continue to generate sufficient revenue, we may be required to further reduce operating expenses, delay the expansion of operations, be unable to pursue merger or acquisition candidates, or in the extreme case, not continue as a going concern.

27

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are in the opinion of management reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2021. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2021, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2021, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
