Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Business Organization and Nature of Operations
Intellinetics, Inc., formerly known as GlobalWise Investments, Inc., is a Nevada corporation incorporated in 1997, with two wholly-owned subsidiaries: Intellinetics, Inc., an Ohio corporation (“Intellinetics Ohio”), and Graphic Sciences, Inc., a Michigan corporation (“Graphic Sciences”). Intellinetics Ohio was incorporated in 1996, and on February 10, 2012, Intellinetics Ohio became our sole operating subsidiary as a result of a reverse merger and recapitalization. On March 2, 2020, we purchased all the outstanding capital stock of Graphic Sciences.
Our digital transformation products and services are provided through two reporting segments: Document Management and Document Conversion. Our Document Management segment, which includes the CEO Imaging Systems, Inc. (“CEO Image”) asset acquisition in April 2020, consists primarily of solutions involving our software platform, allowing customers to capture and manage their documents across operations such as scanned hard-copy documents and digital documents including those from Microsoft Office 365, digital images, audio, video and emails. Our Document Conversion segment, which includes and primarily consists of the Graphic Sciences acquisition, provides assistance to customers as a part of their overall document strategy to convert documents from one medium to another, predominantly paper to digital, including migration to our software solutions, as well as long-term storage and retrieval services. Our solutions create value for customers by making it easy to connect business-critical documents to the people who need them by making those documents easy to find and access, while also being secure and compliant with the customers’ audit requirements. Solutions are sold both directly to end-users and through resellers.
2. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).
The financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with GAAP applicable to interim periods. The financial data and other financial information disclosed in these notes to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are also unaudited. As such, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to applicable rules and regulations thereunder.
Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2022 or any other future period.
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC filed on March 24, 2022.
3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The
condensed consolidated financial statements accompanying these notes include the accounts of Intellinetics and the accounts of all its
subsidiaries in which it holds a controlling interest. Under GAAP, consolidation is generally required for investments of more than
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. By their nature, these estimates and assumptions are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. The impact of COVID-19 has significantly increased economic and demand uncertainty. Because future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from estimated amounts.
Significant estimates and assumptions include valuation allowances related to receivables, accounts receivable -unbilled, the recoverability of long-term assets, depreciable lives of property and equipment, purchase price allocations for acquisitions, fair value for goodwill and intangibles, the lease liabilities, estimates of fair value deferred taxes and related valuation allowances. Our management monitors these risks and assesses our business and financial risks on a quarterly basis.
| 9 |
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue From Contracts With Customers,” we follow a five-step model to assess each contract of a sale or service to a customer: identify the legally binding contract, identify the performance obligations, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price, and determine whether revenue will be recognized at a point in time or over time. Revenue is recognized when a performance obligation is satisfied and the customer obtains control of promised goods and services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods and services. In addition, ASC 606 requires disclosures of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.
We categorize revenue as software, software as a service, software maintenance services, professional services, and storage and retrieval services. We earn the majority of our revenue from the sale of professional services, followed by the sale of software maintenance services and software as a service. We apply our revenue recognition policies as required in accordance with ASC 606 based on the facts and circumstances of each category of revenue. More detail regarding each category of revenue is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC filed on March 24, 2022.
Contract balances
When the timing of our delivery of goods or services is different from the timing of payments made by customers, we recognize either a contract asset (performance precedes contractual due date) or a contract liability (customer payment precedes performance). Customers that prepay are represented by deferred revenue until the performance obligation is satisfied. Contract assets represent arrangements in which the good or service has been delivered but payment is not yet due. Our contract assets consisted of accounts receivable, unbilled, which are disclosed on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, as well as other contract assets which are comprised of employee sales commissions paid in advance of contract periods ending. Our contract liabilities consisted of deferred (unearned) revenue, which is generally related to software as a service or software maintenance contracts. We classify deferred revenue as current based on the timing of when we expect to recognize revenue, which are disclosed on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Deferred revenue
Amounts that have been invoiced are recognized in accounts receivable, deferred revenue or revenue, depending on whether the revenue recognition criteria have been met. Deferred revenue represents amounts billed for which revenue has not yet been recognized. Deferred revenues typically relate to maintenance and software-as-a-service agreements which have been paid for by customers prior to the performance of those services, and payments received for professional services and license arrangements and software-as-a-service performance obligations that have been deferred until fulfilled under our revenue recognition policy.

performance obligations represent the transaction price from contracts for which work has not been performed or goods and services have
not been delivered. We expect to recognize revenue on approximately

Parts and Supplies
Parts
and supplies are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Costs are determined using the first-in, first-out method. Parts
and supplies are used for scanning and document conversion services. A provision for potentially obsolete or slow-moving parts and supplies
inventory is made based on parts and supplies levels, future sales forecasted and management’s judgment of potentially obsolete
parts and supplies. The Company recorded an allowance of $
Property and Equipment
Property,
equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization
is computed over the estimated useful lives of the related assets on a straight-line basis. Furniture and fixtures, computer hardware
and purchased software are depreciated over
Intangible Assets
All intangible assets have finite lives and are stated at cost, net of amortization. Amortization is computed over the useful life of the related assets on a straight-line method.
| 11 |
Goodwill
The carrying value of goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually as of December 31, as well as on an interim basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a reporting unity may not be recoverable. An impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the recorded fair value.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We account for the impairment and disposition of long-lived assets in accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment.” We test long-lived assets or asset groups, such as property and equipment, for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and a current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed of before the end of its estimated useful life.
Recoverability
is assessed based on comparing the carrying amount of the asset to the aggregate pre-tax undiscounted cash flows expected to result from
the use and eventual disposal of the asset or asset group. Impairment is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds
the fair value of the asset or asset group. The impairment loss, if any, is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds
fair value, which for this purpose is based upon the discounted projected future cash flows of the asset or asset group. There was
Purchase Accounting Related Fair Value Measurements
We allocate the purchase price, including contingent consideration, of our acquisitions to the assets and liabilities acquired, including identifiable intangible assets, based on their respective fair values at the date of acquisition. Such fair market value assessments are primarily based on third-party valuations using assumptions developed by management that require significant judgments and estimates that can change materially as additional information becomes available. The purchase price allocated to intangibles is based on unobservable factors, including but not limited to, projected revenues, expenses, customer attrition rates, a weighted average cost of capital, among others. The weighted average cost of capital uses a market participant’s cost of equity and after-tax cost of debt and reflects the risks inherent in the cash flows. The approach to valuing the initial contingent consideration associated with the purchase price also uses similar unobservable factors such as projected revenues and expenses over the term of the contingent earn-out period, discounted for the period over which the initial contingent consideration is measured, and volatility rates. We finalize the purchase price allocation once certain initial accounting valuation estimates are finalized, and no later than 12 months following the acquisition date.
Leases
We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases in which we are the lessee are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. We do not have any finance leases, as a lessee, and no long-term leases for which we are the lessor.
ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the reasonably certain lease term. As our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. We use the implicit rate when readily determinable. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and reduced by lease incentives, such as tenant improvement allowances. Our lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease only 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.
We account for stock-based payments to employees in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation.” Stock-based payments to employees include grants of stock that are recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations based on their fair values at the date of grant.
| 12 |
We account for stock-based payments to non-employees in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” which requires that such equity instruments be measured at their fair values on the grant date.
The grant date fair value of stock option awards is recognized in earnings as stock-based compensation cost over the requisite service period of the award using the straight-line attribution method. We estimate the fair value of the stock option awards using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. The exercise price of options is specified in the stock option agreements. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our stock for the previous period equal to the expected term of the options. The expected term of options granted is based on the midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term. The risk-free interest rate is based upon a U.S. Treasury instrument with a life that is similar to the expected term of the options. The expected dividend yield is based upon the yield expected on date of grant to occur over the term of the option.
Software Development Costs
We design, develop, test, market, license, and support new software products and enhancements of current products. We continuously monitor our software products and enhancements to remain compatible with standard platforms and file formats. In accordance with ASC 985-20 “Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed,” we expense software development costs, including costs to develop software products or the software component of products to be sold, leased, or marketed to external users, before technological feasibility is reached. Once technological feasibility has been established, certain software development costs incurred during the application development stage are eligible for capitalization. Based on our software development process, technical feasibility is established upon completion of a working model. Technological feasibility is typically reached shortly before the release of such products. No such costs were capitalized during the periods presented in this report.
In
accordance with ASC 350-40, “Internal-Use Software,” we capitalize purchase and implementation costs of internal use software.
Once an application has reached development stage, internal and external costs, if direct and incremental, are capitalized until the
software is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalization ceases upon completion of all substantial testing.
We also capitalize costs related to specific upgrades and enhancements when it is probable that the expenditure will result in additional
functionality. Such costs in the amount of $

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Effective
Financial Instruments – Credit Losses
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), which requires entities to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost. ASC 2016-16 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

No other Accounting Standards Updates that have been issued but are not yet effective are expected to have a material effect on our future condensed consolidated financial statements.
Advertising
We
expense the cost of advertising as incurred. Advertising expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 amounted to $
Basic income or loss per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income or loss per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the diluted weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The diluted weighted average number of shares gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. Diluted earnings per share exclude all diluted potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive, including warrants or options which are out-of-the-money and for those periods with a net loss. The three months ended March 31, 2022 reported a net loss, while the three months ended March 31, 2021 reported net income.
We have outstanding warrants and stock options which have not been included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2022 because to do so would be anti-dilutive. As such, the numerator and the denominator used in computing both basic and diluted net loss per share for each period are the same.
Income Taxes
We file a consolidated federal income tax return with our subsidiaries. The provision for income taxes is computed by applying statutory rates to income before taxes.
Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities as of each period-end based on enacted tax laws and statutory rates. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. A 100% valuation allowance has been established on deferred tax assets at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, due to the uncertainty of our ability to realize future taxable income.
We account for uncertainty in income taxes in our financial statements as required under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” The standard prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The standard also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition accounting. Management determined there were no material uncertain positions taken by us in our tax returns.
Segment Information
Operating segments are defined in the criteria established under the ASC 280, “Segment Reporting,” as components of public entities that engage in business activities from which they may earn revenues and incur expenses for which separate financial information is available and which is evaluated regularly by our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to assess performance and allocate resources. Our CODM assesses performance and allocates resources based on two operating segments: Document Management and Document Conversion. These segments contain individual business components that have been combined on the basis of common management, customers, solutions offered, service processes and other economic characteristics. We currently have no intersegment sales. We evaluate the performance of our segments based on gross profits.
The Document Management Segment provides cloud-based and premise-based content services software. Its modular suite of solutions complements existing operating and accounting systems to serve a mission-critical role for organizations to make content secure, compliant, and process-ready. This segment conducts its primary operations in the United States. Markets served include highly regulated, risk and compliance-intensive markets in healthcare, K-12 education, public safety, other public sector, risk management, financial services, and others. Solutions are sold both directly to end-users and through resellers.
| 14 |
The Document Conversion Segment provides services for scanning and indexing, converting images from paper to digital, paper to microfilm, and microfiche to microfilm, as well as long-term physical document storage and retrieval. This segment conducts its primary operations in the United States. Markets served include business and federal, county, and municipal governments. Solutions are sold both directly to end-users and through a reseller distributor.

5. Fair Value Measurements
Under GAAP, fair value is defined as the price 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. The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs consist of quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in an active market, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and market-corroborated inputs which are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. Level 3 inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable.
The carrying values of cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of its short maturity. Management believes that the carrying value of the 2020 Notes approximate fair value given that, while there has been change in the overall economic environment, there has not been significant net availability of credit to Company.
We
have earnout liabilities related to our two 2020 acquisitions which are measured on a recurring basis and recorded at fair value, measured
using probability-weighted analysis and discounted using a rate that appropriately captures the risks associated with the obligation.
The inputs used to calculate the fair value of the earnout liabilities are considered to be Level 3 inputs due to the lack of relevant
market activity and significant management judgment.
The following table provides a summary of the changes in fair value of the earnout liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:
| March 31, 2022 | ||||
| Fair value at December 31, 2021 | $ | |||

| Change in fair value | ||||
| Fair value at March 31, 2021 | $ | |||
The fair values of amounts owed are recorded in the current and long-term portions of earnout liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes in fair value are recorded in change in fair value of earnout liabilities in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

9. Commitments and Contingencies
From time to time we are involved in legal proceedings, claims and litigation related to employee claims, contractual disputes and taxes in the ordinary course of business. Although we cannot predict the outcome of such matters, currently we have no reason to believe the disposition of any current matter could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations or the ability to carry on any of our business activities.
Employment Agreements
We have entered into employment agreements with three of our key executives, including one of our founders. Under their respective employment agreements, the executives are employed on an “at-will” basis and are bound by typical confidentiality, non-solicitation and non-competition provisions.

Company Overview
We are a document services and solutions software company serving both the small-to-medium business and governmental sectors. Our products and services are provided through two reporting segments: Document Management and Document Conversion. Our products and services are provided through two reporting segments: Document Management and Document Conversion. Our Document Management segment consists primarily of solutions involving our software platform, allowing customers to capture and manage their documents across operations such as scanned hard-copy documents and digital documents including those from Microsoft Office 365, digital images, audio, video and emails. Our Document Conversion segment provides assistance to customers as a part of their overall document strategy to convert documents from one medium to another, predominantly paper to digital, including migration to our software solutions, as well as long-term storage and retrieval services. Our solutions create value for customers by making it easy to connect business-critical documents to the people and processes who need them by making those documents easy to find and act upon, while also being secure, compliant, and audit-ready. Solutions are sold both directly to end-users and through resellers.
Our customers use our software by one of two methods: purchasing our software and installing it onto their own equipment, which we refer to as a “premise” model, or licensing and accessing our platform via the Internet, which we refer to as a “software as a service” or “SaaS” model and also as a “cloud-based” model. Licensing of our software through our SaaS model has become increasingly popular among our customers, especially in light of the increased deployment of remote workforce policies, and is a key ingredient in our revenue growth strategy. Our SaaS products are hosted with Amazon Web Services and Expedient, providing our customers with reliable hosting services that we believe are consistent with industry best practices in data security and performance.
We operate a U.S.-based business with concentrated sales to the State of Michigan for our Document Conversion segment, complemented by our diverse set of document management software solutions and services. We hold or compete for leading positions regionally in select markets and attribute this leadership to several factors including the strength of our brand name and reputation, our comprehensive offering of innovative solutions, and the quality of our service support. Net growth in sales of software as a service in recent years reflects market demand for these solutions over traditional sales of on-premise software. We expect to continue to benefit from our select niche leadership market positions, innovative product offering, growing customer base, and the impact of our sales and marketing programs. Examples of these programs include identifying and investing in growth and expanded market penetration opportunities, more effective products and services pricing strategies, demonstrating superior value to customers, increasing our sales force effectiveness through improved guidance and measurement, and continuing to optimize our lead generation and lead nurturing processes.
For further information about our consolidated revenue and earnings, please see our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
How We Evaluate our Business Performance and Opportunities
There has been no material change during the first quarter 2022 to the major qualitative and quantitative factors we consider in the evaluation of our operating results as set forth in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — How We Evaluate our Business Performance and Opportunities” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
Recent Developments
On April 1, 2022, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Yellow Folder, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Yellow Folder”). Located in Dallas, Yellow Folder is a document solutions company that specializes in the K-12 education market. The purchase price for Yellow Folder was approximately $6.5 million in cash, on a cash-free, debt-free basis, and subject to a post-closing net working capital adjustment. More details regarding the Yellow Folder acquisition are set forth in Note 15 Subsequent Events and in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on April 5, 2022.
Also on April 1, 2022, we completed a private offering with certain accredited investors, pursuant to which we issued and sold (i) 1,242,588 shares of our common stock, at a price of $4.62 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $5,740,756 and (ii) $2,964,500 in 12% subordinated notes, for aggregate gross proceeds of $8,705,256 for the combined private placement (the “2022 Offering”). We used a portion of the net proceeds of the 2022 Offering to finance the acquisition of Yellow Folder described above, and intend to use the remaining net proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes, including potentially debt reduction or other future acquisitions. More details regarding the 2022 Offering are set forth in Note 15 Subsequent Events and in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on April 5, 2022.
On April 14, 2022, we issued incentive stock option awards to purchase an aggregate of 220,587 shares, with an exercise price of $6.08 per share, to seven members of our executive and management teams, subject to three-year vesting and in accordance with the terms and conditions of our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan. More details regarding the stock option awards are set forth in Note 15 Subsequent Events and in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on April 20, 2022.

Financial Impact of COVID-19
The spread of the COVID-19 pandemic and developments surrounding this global pandemic have had, and we expect will continue to have, a significant impact on our business, operations, financial condition and results of operations.
Since the initial shutdowns, our level of customer engagement in Document Conversion has varied with the ebb and flow of the initial virus and the subsequent variants and outbreaks. In particular, we experienced slow-downs in workflow and corresponding revenues during the fourth quarter of 2021 and first quarter 2022 due to the Omicron variant outbreak. The State of Michigan, our largest customer, has yet to return a majority of its agencies and departments to on site work, resulting in a decrease in the volume of work orders for our Document Conversion segment. We are seeing inconsistent demand in certain other areas of our operations, even though those operations are still currently open for business with mostly remote staff.
Looking ahead, the ongoing impact of COVID-19 on our business continues to evolve and be unpredictable. The majority of our Ohio employees continue to work remotely. Many of our clients operate in a variety of other states, which had differing time periods in which their operations have been, currently or may in the future be restricted due to COVID-19. Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be affected by future outbreaks of COVID-19 generally or in our facilities. We are also likely to be impacted further by decreased customer demand and/or subscription terminations as a result of a reduction in customer spending (especially customers that are state and local governmental entities) or as a result of government-imposed restrictions on businesses. In particular, governmental budget reductions in the State of Michigan, our largest customer, may have a material adverse effect on our business. The extent of the impact will depend on a number of factors, including the duration and severity of the outbreak(s); the uneven impact to certain industries; vaccination rates; the effect that any governmental vaccine mandates might have on our ability to attract and retain talent; the macroeconomic impact of government measures to contain the spread of the virus and related government stimulus measures. To address the potential impact to our business, we have engaged, and continue to assess and engage, in aggressive efforts to reduce expenses and preserve cash flow in order to address the effects of COVID-19 on our business, operations and results. Additionally, we have instituted safe distancing practices and additional cleaning procedures for all our company offices, as well as established work-from-home policies wherever feasible, in order to prevent or mitigate future outbreaks and disruptions to our business. At the same time, we believe the current environment is accelerating digital transformation and we remain focused on innovating and investing in the services we offer to our customers. Accordingly, the ongoing impact of COVID-19 and the extent of these measures we may implement have and are likely to continue to have a material impact on our financial results.
Uncertainties, Trends, and Risks that can cause Fluctuations in our Operating Results
Our operating results have fluctuated significantly in the past and are expected to continue to fluctuate in the future due to a variety of factors, in addition to COVID-19, that are discussed in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Uncertainties, Trends, and Risks that can cause Fluctuations in our Operating Results” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. Due to all these factors and the other risks discussed in Part II, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report, and Part I, Item IA, “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, our past results of operations should not be relied upon as an indication of our future performance. Comparisons of our operating results with prior periods is not necessarily meaningful or indicative of future performance.
Executive Overview of Results
We faced challenges in the first quarter 2022 due to the Omicron variant of COVID-19 and general inflationary pressures. An increase in Document Management revenues helped to defray the effects of Omicron on our Document Conversion revenues, resulting in a modest increase in total revenues over the first quarter 2021.
Below are our key financial results for the first quarter 2022 (consolidated unless otherwise noted):
| ● | Revenues were $2,703,512, representing revenue growth of 3% year over year. | |
| ● | Cost of revenues was $1,071,675, an increase of 4% year over year. | |
| ● | Operating expenses (excluding cost of revenues) were $1,539,362, an increase of 3% year over year. | |
| ● | Income from operations was $92,475, a decrease of 16% year over year. | |
| ● | Net loss was $20,126 with basic and diluted net income per share of ($0.01), compared to net income of $842,772 in Q1 2021. |
| ● | Q1 2021 included other income of $845,083 for forgiveness of the PPP loan and interest. | |
| ● | Q1 2022 included $70,051 of transaction costs. |

Reportable Segments
We have two reportable segments: Document Management and Document Conversion. These reportable segments are discussed above under “Company Overview.”
Results of Operations
Revenues
The following table sets forth our revenues by reportable segment for the periods indicated:
| Three months ended March 31, 2022 | Three months ended March 31, 2021 | |||||||
| Revenues by segment | ||||||||
| Document Management | $ | 914,950 | $ | 735,818 | ||||
| Document Conversion | 1,788,562 | 1,899,401 | ||||||
| Total revenues | $ | 2,703,512 | $ | 2,635,219 | ||||
The following table sets forth our revenues by revenue source for the periods indicated:
| Three months ended March 31, 2022 | Three months ended March 31, 2021 | |||||||
| Revenues by revenue source | ||||||||
| Sale of software | $ | 64,491 | $ | 9,594 | ||||
| Software as a service | 431,221 | 323,726 | ||||||
| Software maintenance services | 336,602 | 340,446 | ||||||
| Professional services | 1,587,948 | 1,652,463 | ||||||
| Storage and retrieval services | 283,250 | 308,990 | ||||||
| Total revenues | $ | 2,703,512 | $ | 2,635,219 | ||||
Our total revenues in the first quarter 2022 increased by $68,293, or 3%, over our first quarter 2021 revenues, driven primarily by continued strong performance in our Document Management segment being largely offset by short-term weakness in our Document Conversion segment, primarily due to the COVID-19 resurgence in Michigan and the corresponding temporary pause in demand. Professional services, our largest revenue line item, was down $64,515, or 4%, due to this resurgence. The increase in total revenues is primarily attributable to growth software as a service and software, partially offset by software maintenance services and storage and retrieval, as further described below.
Sale of Software Revenues
Revenues from the sale of software principally consist of sales of additional or upgraded software licenses and applications to existing customers and resellers. The $54,897, or 572%, increase in these revenues in the first quarter 2022 compared to the first quarter 2021 was due to timing of large direct sales projects, with favorable comparisons to the very low project volume of the first quarter of 2021. We expect the volatility of this revenue line item to continue as the frequency of on-premise software solution sales decreases over time.
Software as a Service Revenues
We provide access to our software solutions as a service, accessible through the internet. Our customers typically enter into our software as a service agreement for periods of one year or more. Under these agreements, we generally provide access to the applicable software, data storage and related customer assistance and support. Revenues from the sale of software as a service are reported as part of our Document Management segment. The $107,495, or 33%, increase in these revenues in the first quarter 2022 compared to the first quarter 2021 was primarily the result of most new customers choosing a cloud-based solution, plus expanded data storage, user seats, and hosting fees for existing customers. A portion of increase, approximately 6%, was attributed to existing software maintenance services customers migrating to our cloud solutions.
| 25 |
Software Maintenance Services Revenues
Software maintenance services revenues consist of fees for post-contract customer support services provided to license (premise-based) holders through support and maintenance agreements. These agreements allow our customers to receive technical support, enhancements and upgrades to new versions of our software products when and if available. A substantial portion of these revenues were generated from renewals of maintenance agreements, which typically run on a year-to-year basis. Revenues from the sale of software maintenance services are reported as part of our Document Management segment. The $3,844, or 1%, decrease in these revenues in the first quarter 2022 compared to the first quarter 2021 was primarily driven by customers migrating their premise solution to our cloud solution, resulting maintenance and support agreements decreasing and software as a service increasing. Stand alone, this migration would have resulted in a decrease of 5%, however, these migrations and normal attrition were almost entirely offset by expansion of services with existing customers and price increases.
Professional Services Revenues
Professional services revenues consist of revenues from document scanning and conversion services, consulting, discovery, training, and advisory services to assist customers with document management needs, as well as repair and maintenance services for customer equipment. These revenues include arrangements that do not involve the sale of software. Of our professional services revenues during the first quarter 2022, $1,505,312 were derived from our Document Conversion operations and $82,636 were derived from our Document Management operations. Our overall professional services revenues decreased by $64,515, or 4%, in the first quarter 2022 compared to the first quarter 2021. The decrease is primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 Omicron variant on our Michigan-based operations, with respect to both our staff and our customers, leading to a reduction in demand and time billed. Our smaller Ohio operations did not experience the same COVID-19 Omicron impact.
Storage and Retrieval Services Revenues
We provide document storage and retrieval services to customers, primarily in Michigan. Revenues from storage and retrieval services are reported as part of our Document Conversion segment. The $25,740, or 8%, decrease in storage and retrieval service revenues in the first quarter 2022 compared to the first quarter 2021 was the primarily result of unusually high incremental document destruction projects in 2021.
Costs of Revenues and Gross Profits
The following table sets forth our cost of revenues by reportable segment for the periods indicated:
| Three months ended March 31, 2022 | Three months ended March 31, 2021 | |||||||
| Cost of revenues by segment | ||||||||
| Document Management | $ | 180,044 | $ | 148,318 | ||||
| Document Conversion | 891,631 | 881,997 | ||||||
| Total cost of revenues | $ | 1,071,675 | $ | 1,030,315 | ||||
The following table sets forth our cost of revenues, by revenue source, for the periods indicated:
| Three months ended March 31, 2022 | Three months ended March 31, 2021 | |||||||
| Cost of revenues: | ||||||||
| Sale of software | $ | 26,193 | $ | 4,237 | ||||
| Software as a service | 91,249 | 76,340 | ||||||
| Software maintenance services | 18,300 | 24,388 | ||||||
| Professional services | 848,167 | 834,238 | ||||||
| Storage and retrieval services | 87,766 | 91,112 | ||||||
| Total cost of revenues | $ | 1,071,675 | $ | 1,030,315 | ||||
Our total cost of revenues during the first quarter 2022 increased by $41,360, or 4%, over first quarter 2021 primarily following sales growth. Our cost of revenues for our Document Management segment increased by $31,726, or 21%, in the first quarter 2022 compared to the first quarter 2021 primarily due to increased sales revenues in that segment. Our cost of revenues for our Document Conversion segment increased by $9,634, or 1%, in the first quarter 2022 compared to the first quarter 2021, despite lower overall sales, due to unfavorable margin projects as well as the impact of inflation on entry level positions in the Document Conversion segment.
Our overall gross profit grew slightly in the first quarter 2022 from the first quarter 2021, up $26,933, or 2%. Our overall gross margin for the first quarter 2022 decreased to 60%, from 61% in the first quarter 2021, primarily a result of unfavorable margin projects and slightly growing costs in our Document Conversion segment. These impacts more than offset the strengthening of margins in our Document Management segment, as further discussed below.
| 26 |
Cost of Software Revenues
Cost of software revenues consists primarily of labor costs of our software engineers and implementation consultants and third-party software licenses that are sold in connection with our core software applications. Cost of software revenues during the first quarter 2022 increased by $21,956, or 518%, from the first quarter 2021, due to the increase in revenues and implementations. Our gross margin for software revenues increased to 59% in the first quarter 2022 from 56% in the first quarter 2021. This increase was driven by changes in the software solution mix, with slightly higher margin solutions in the first quarter 2022 favorably compared to solutions sold in 2021, and more in line with the solutions sold the previous year, in 2020. As with our software revenues, we expect the volatility of this line item to continue as the frequency of on-premise software solution sales decreases over time.
Cost of Software as a Service
Cost of software as a service, or SaaS, consists primarily of technical support personnel, hosting services, and related costs. Cost of software as a service during the first quarter 2022 increased by $14,909, or 20%, over the first quarter 2021. This increase in the cost of SaaS was less than the increase in associated SaaS revenues, so our gross margin in the first quarter 2022 increased to 79% compared to 76% in the first quarter 2021, as a result of improved implementation efficiencies and continued scaling of hosting infrastructure.
Cost of Software Maintenance Services
Cost of software maintenance services consists primarily of technical support personnel and related costs. Cost of software maintenance services during the first quarter 2022 decreased by $6,088, or 25%, over the first quarter 2021 due to reduced support activity. As a result, our gross margin for software maintenance services increased to 95% in the first quarter 2022 compared to 93% in the first quarter 2021.
Cost of Professional Services
Cost of professional services consists primarily of compensation for employees performing the document conversion services, compensation of our software engineers and implementation consultants and related third-party costs. Cost of professional services during the first quarter 2022 increased by $13,929, or 2%, over the first quarter 2021, primarily due to unfavorable margin projects as well as the impact of inflation on entry level positions in the Document Conversion segment. As a result, our gross margins professional services decreased to 47% in the first quarter 2022 compared to 50% in the first quarter 2021. Gross margins related to consulting and document conversion services may vary widely, depending upon the nature of the project and the amount of labor it takes to complete a project.
Cost of Storage and Retrieval Services
Cost of storage and retrieval services consists primarily of compensation for employees performing the document storage and retrieval services, including logistics. Cost of storage and retrieval services decreased by $3,346, or 4%, in the first quarter 2022 compared to the first quarter 2021, due to unusually high incremental document destruction projects in 2021, partially offset by an increase in wages and training new warehouse personnel. Gross margins for our storage and retrieval services, which exclude the cost of facilities rental, maintenance, and related overheads, decreased to 69% in the first quarter 2022 compared to 71% in the first quarter 2021 primarily as a result of inefficiencies in training new warehouse personnel.
Operating Expenses
The following table sets forth our operating expenses for the periods indicated:
| Three months ended March 31, 2022 | Three months ended March 31, 2021 | |||||||
| Operating expenses: | ||||||||
| General and administrative | $ | 938,883 | $ | 1,039,026 | ||||
| Change in fair value of earnout liabilities | 64,204 | 69,950 | ||||||
Transaction costs | 70,051 | - | ||||||
| Sales and marketing | 352,114 | 290,311 | ||||||
| Depreciation and amortization | 114,110 | 94,884 | ||||||
| Total operating expenses | $ | 1,539,362 | $ | 1,494,171 | ||||
| 27 |
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses during the first quarter 2022 decreased by $100,143, or 10%, from the first quarter 2021, principally related to reduced bonuses for the first quarter, reduced third party professional fees, reduced travel, and also salary reductions from retirements and terminations. Our Document Conversion segment, in which our general and administrative expenses decreased to $537,620 in the first quarter 2022 from $552,516 in the first quarter 2021, was relatively flat at -3%, with reduced salaries and travel contributing. In our Document Management segment, our general and administrative expenses decreased to $401,263 in the first quarter 2022 compared to $486,511 in the first quarter 2021 due to decreases in bonuses, personnel expenses, and legal and accounting professional fees.
Change in Fair Value of Earnout Liabilities
Improvements in actual and forecast gross margin and revenue performance drove an adjustment in fair value of during the first quarter 2022 of $53,427 and $10,777 for Graphic Sciences and CEO, respectively, totaling $64,204 for 2022. The fair value adjustments were driven by updated assumptions to reflect the improved performance of both acquisitions against their threshold targets and a reduction of pandemic-related uncertainty. Improved gross margin performance at Graphic Science during the first quarter 2021 resulted in an adjustment to fair value of earnout liabilities of $69,950.
Significant Transaction Expenses
The significant transactions expenses during the first quarter 2022 were comprised of legal and consulting fees in connection with our acquisition of Yellow Folder, consummated on April 1, 2022. There were no significant transaction expenses during the first quarter 2021.
Sales and Marketing Expenses
Sales and marketing expenses during the first quarter 2022 increased by $61,803, or 21%, over the first quarter 2021. This increase was driven by the expansion of the sales and marketing teams during the first quarter 2022 compared to the first quarter 2021.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization during the first quarter 2022 increased by $19,226, or 20%, over the first quarter 2021 as a result of additional assets acquired later in 2021, primarily the warehouse racking used by the Document Conversion segment.
Other Items of Income and Expense
Gain on Extinguishment of Debt
The $845,083 gain on extinguishment of debt in the first quarter 2021 reflects the full forgiveness of our PPP Note principal and interest by the SBA in January 2021.
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense was $112,601 in the first quarter 2022 as compared to $113,044 during the first quarter 2021, representing a decrease of $443, or essentially flat, as expected, as there were no changes in the underlying notes payable.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have financed our operations primarily through a combination of cash on hand, cash generated from operations, borrowings from third parties and related parties, and proceeds from private sales of equity. Since 2012, and including our private offering in April 2022, discussed in Recent Developments, we have raised a total of approximately $26 million in cash through issuances of debt and equity securities. As of March 31, 2022, we had $2,172,758 in cash and cash equivalents, net working capital deficit of $1,517,958, and an accumulated deficit of approximately $21.7 million. The net working capital deficit is driven by current notes payable amounting to $1,807,128, net of unamortized debt discount and debt issuance costs.
In 2022, we engaged in several actions that significantly improved our liquidity and cash flows, including, on April 1, 2022:
| ● | acquiring the positive cash flow generated by Yellow Folder, | |
| ● | receiving aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $5.7 million from the private placement of our common stock (all which was used to acquire Yellow Folder), and | |
| ● | receiving approximately $3.0 million in proceeds from the issuance of 12% subordinated promissory notes due March 31, 2025, which we refer to as the 2022 notes (some of which was used to acquire Yellow Folder). |
Of our existing debt, $2 million is due February 29, 2023 and approximately $3 million is due March 31, 2025. We also may have earnout payments of up to a maximum of $1,018,333 in the second quarter of 2022 and $833,333 in the second quarter of 2023. Our operating cash flow alone may be insufficient to meet these obligations in full in the first and second quarters of 2023. We have positive operating cash flow, and we believe we could seek additional debt or equity financing on acceptable terms. We believe that our balance sheet and financial statements would support a full or partial refinancing or other appropriate modification of the current promissory notes, such as an extension or conversion to equity. We are confident in our ability to prudently manage our current debt on terms acceptable to us.
Our ability to meet our capital needs in the short term will depend on many factors, including maintaining and enhancing our operating cash flow, successfully managing the transition of our recent acquisition of Yellow Folder, successfully retaining and growing our client base in the midst of general economic uncertainty, and managing any continuing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business.
Based on our current plans and assumptions, we believe our capital resources, including our cash and cash equivalents, along with funds expected to be generated from our operations and potential financing options, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs arising in the ordinary course of business for at least the next 12 months, including to satisfy our expected working capital needs, earnout obligations and capital and debt service commitments.
Our ability to meet our capital needs further into the future will depend primarily on strategically managing the business and successfully retaining our client base.
Indebtedness
As of March 31, 2022, our outstanding long-term indebtedness consisted of the 2020 notes issued to accredited investors on March 2, 2020, with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $2,000,000 and accrued interest of $0. See Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part 1, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for further information on the 2020 notes. In addition, as of April 1, 2022, we issued additional long-term indebtedness consisting of approximately $3 million as part of the 2022 notes. For more information on the 2022 notes, see Note 15 to our condensed consolidated financial statements regarding subsequent events.
Capital Expenditures
There were no material commitments for capital expenditures at March 31, 2021.
| 29 |
Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities during the first quarter 2022 was $476,171, primarily attributable to the net loss adjusted for non-cash expenses of $463,783, a decrease in operating assets of $171,743 and a decrease in operating liabilities of $139,229. Net cash provided by operating activities during the first quarter 2021 was $326,869, primarily attributable to the net income adjusted for a gain, net of non-cash expenses, of $415,624, an increase in operating assets of $148,540 and an increase in operating liabilities of $48,261.
Cash Used by Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities in the first quarter 2022 was $56,043, primarily related to purchases of property and equipment. Net cash used in investing activities in the first quarter 2021 was $231,699, primarily related to purchases of property and equipment, including construction in progress.
Cash Provided by Financing Activities
There were no financing activities during the first quarter 2022 or 2021. The private placement of our common stock and issuance of promissory notes payable occurred on April 1, 2022, and these events are discussed further in Note 15 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses in the reporting period. We monitor and analyze these items for changes in facts and circumstances, and material changes in these estimates could occur in the future. We base our estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Changes in estimates are reflected in reported results for the period in which they become known. The actual results experienced by us may differ materially from our estimates. To the extent there are material differences between our estimates and the actual results, our future results of operations will be affected.
Our critical accounting policies and estimates are set forth in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. There were no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates during the first quarter 2022.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our 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”)) at the end of the period covered by this this Quarterly Report.
Based on this evaluation, we concluded that, as of March 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving its desired objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act).
We regularly review our internal control over financial reporting and, from time to time, we have made changes as we deemed appropriate to maintain and enhance the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, although these changes do not have a material effect on our overall internal control.
