These statements are based on Oblong’s current plans, and Oblong’s actual future activities and results of operations may be materially different from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the statements made. Any or all of the forward-looking statements in this Report may turn out to be inaccurate. Oblong has based these forward-looking statements largely on its current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that it believes may affect its financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. The forward-looking statements can be affected by inaccurate assumptions or by known or unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions. There are important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, including our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other factors that are discussed under the section entitled “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” and in our consolidated financial statements and the footnotes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, each included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 29, 2022, and in the section entitled “Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2022 filed with the SEC on August 10, 2022 (the “Q2 2022 Quarterly Report”). Oblong undertakes no obligation to publicly revise these forward-looking statements to reflect events occurring after the date hereof. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to Oblong or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained in this Report.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2022
(Unaudited)
Note 1 - Business Description and Significant Accounting Policies
Business Description
Oblong, Inc. (“Oblong” or “we” or “us” or the “Company”) was formed as a Delaware corporation in May 2000 and is a provider of patented multi-stream collaboration technologies and managed services for video collaboration and network applications. Prior to March 6, 2020, Oblong, Inc. was named Glowpoint, Inc. (“Glowpoint”). On March 6, 2020, Glowpoint changed its name to Oblong, Inc.
Basis of Presentation
The Company's fiscal year ends on December 31 of each calendar year. The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared on substantially the same basis as our annual consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. In the opinion of the Company's management, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
The December 31, 2021 year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data in this document was derived from audited consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q do not include all disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 and notes thereto included in the Company's fiscal 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 29, 2022 (the “2021 10-K”).
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Oblong and our 100%-owned subsidiaries, (i) GP Communications, LLC (“GP Communications”), whose business function is to provide interstate telecommunications services for regulatory purposes, (ii) Oblong Industries, and (iii) Oblong Europe Limited, a subsidiary of Oblong Industries. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The U.S. Dollar is the functional currency for all subsidiaries.
Segments
The Company currently operates in
two
segments: (1) “Collaboration Products” which represents the Oblong Industries business surrounding our
Mezzanine™ product offerings and (2)

Use of Estimates
Preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from the estimates made. We continually evaluate estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for reasonableness. Appropriate

Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies used in preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements are disclosed in our 2021 10-K, and there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13 as amended,
“Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326).”
Topic 326 introduces an impairment model that is based on expected credit losses, rather than incurred losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments (e.g., accounts receivable, loans and held-to-maturity securities), including certain off-balance sheet financial instruments (e.g., loan commitments). The expected credit losses should consider historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments, over the contractual term. Financial instruments with similar risk characteristics may be grouped together when estimating expected credit losses. Topic 326 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has evaluated the impact the new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and does not expect the impact to be material.
In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04,
Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options.
The FASB is issuing this update to clarify and reduce diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity classified written call options (for example, warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. ASU 2021-04 is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity should apply the amendments prospectively to modifications or exchanges occurring after the effective date of the amendments. The Company has adopted this standard, effective January 1, 2022, and it did not have a material effect on our financial statements.
Casualty Loss
In June 2022, the Company discovered that $
533,000
of inventory was stolen from the Company’s warehouse in City of Industry, California. This theft has been recorded as a casualty loss of $
533,000
during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 on the Company’s condensed consolidated Statements of Operations. The theft is being investigated further by the Los Angeles, CA Sheriff’s Department and a claim has been filed with the Company’s insurance company. We are seeking to recover the majority of the loss through our insurance policies, and we will offset the casualty loss with the recognition of a gain of any proceeds should we subsequently receive them from our insurance company. No assurances can be provided that we will be successful in recovering any or all of the casualty loss.
Note 2 - Liquidity and Going Concern Uncertainty
As of September 30, 2022, we had $
4,143,000
in cash and working capital of $
4,029,000
. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we incurred a net loss of $
20,724,000
and used $
4,876,000
of net cash in operating activities.
Future Capital Requirements and Going Concern
Our capital requirements in the future will continue to depend on numerous factors, including the timing and amount of revenue for the Company, customer renewal rates and the timing of collection of outstanding accounts receivable, in each case particularly as it relates to the Company’s major customers, the expense to deliver services, expense for sales and marketing, expense for research and development, and capital expenditures. We expect to continue to invest in product development and sales and marketing expenses with the goal of growing the Company’s revenue in the future. The Company believes that, based on its current projection of revenue, expenses, capital expenditures, and cash flows, it will not have sufficient resources to fund its operations for the next twelve months following the filing of this Report. We believe additional capital will be required to fund operations and provide growth capital including investments in technology, product development and sales and marketing. To access capital to fund operations or provide growth capital, we will need to raise capital in one or more debt and/or equity offerings. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising necessary capital or that any such offering will be on terms acceptable to the Company. If we are unable to raise additional capital that may be needed on terms acceptable to us, it

Note 3 - Goodwill
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, goodwill was
zero
and $
7,367,000
, respectively, the goodwill was recorded in connection with the October 1, 2019 acquisition of Oblong Industries (our Collaboration Products reporting unit).
We tested goodwill for impairment on an annual basis on September 30 of each year, or more frequently if events occurred or circumstances changed indicating that the fair value of the goodwill may be below its carrying amount. To determine the fair value of the reporting unit for the goodwill impairment test, we used a weighted average of the discounted cash flow method and market-based method.
We considered the sustained decline in our stock price to be a triggering event for an interim goodwill impairment test, as of both March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, and we recorded impairment charges against the carrying value of Goodwill of $
7,367,000
during the first half of 2022 as the carrying amount of the Collaboration Products reporting unit exceeded its fair value on the test dates. These charges are recognized as “Impairment Charges” on our condensed consolidated Statements of Operations. Following these impairment charges, our goodwill value was reduced to zero as of June 30, 2022.
Note 4 - Intangible Assets

At each reporting period, we determine if there was a triggering event that may result in an impairment of our intangible assets. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we considered the declines in revenue for the Collaboration Products reporting segment and the decline in the Company’s market capitalization to be triggering events for an impairment test of intangible assets for this reporting unit. Based on the corresponding recoverability tests of the asset group for this reporting unit, it was determined that the carrying value exceeded the gross cash flows of the asset group. The recoverability test consisted of comparing the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by those assets to the respective carrying amounts, and involves significant judgements and assumptions, related primarily to the future revenue and profitability of the assets. Based on the fair value of the asset group, which was determined using a market approach, we recorded impairment charges of $
5,132,000
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. Additionally, we re-evaluated the remaining useful lives of our amortizing intangible assets and, based on our current plan, we adjusted its remaining useful life to
2
years. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated economic lives of the assets.
Related amortization expense was $
580,000
, $
1,740,000
, $
597,000
, and $
1,791,000
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Note 6 - Leases
We lease
three
facilities in Los Angeles, California and
one
facility in Austin, Texas, each providing office space. We also lease a facility in City of Industry, California, providing warehouse space, and a short-term residential property in Los Angeles, California. These leases expire through 2024. We currently occupy the warehouse space in City of Industry, and the office facility in Austin, Texas, and we have a sublease in place for one of the Los Angeles, California office spaces. With the exception of these spaces described above, we currently operate out of remote employment sites with a remote office located at 25587 Conifer Road, Suite 105-231, Conifer, Colorado 80433.
Lease expenses, including common charges and net of sublet proceeds, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were $
92,000
, $
307,000
, $
175,000

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we entered into a six-month residential lease in Los Angeles, CA. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we exited our Boston, Massachusetts and our Dallas, Texas leases upon expiration, and we vacated two of the properties in Los Angeles, California. The properties we vacated in Los Angeles, California are under leases until May 2023 and management does not expect to be able to sublet the properties given the limited
-9-
time remaining on the leases. Therefore, due to not utilizing the asset, management believes that the right-of-use assets attached to these leases have lost their value. An impairment charge of $
179,000
was recorded for these assets in June 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we entered into
one
new operating lease, modified
one
operating lease, and terminated
two
operating leases.

The intrinsic value of vested options, unvested options and exercised options were
no
t significant for all periods presented. Net stock compensation expense, related to stock options, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $
30,000
made up of $
114,000
in expense offset by $
84,000
related to forfeiture credits. Stock compensation expense, related to stock options,
-11-
was $
64,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The remaining unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for options as of September 30, 2022 is $
216,000
, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of
1.75
years.
Restricted Stock Awards
As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, there were
627
unvested restricted stock awards outstanding, with a weighted average grant date price of $
15.80
. The awards were issued in 2014 and vest over the lesser of
ten years
, a change in control, or separation from the company. Due to the variability of the vesting, the expense was amortized over an average service period of
five years
, therefore, there is
no
unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock awards as of September 30, 2022.
Restricted Stock Units
As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, there were
no
unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”) outstanding. As of September 30, 2022,
28,904
vested RSUs remain outstanding as shares of common stock have not yet been delivered for these units in accordance with the terms of the RSUs.
Note 9 - Net Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding does
no
t include any potentially dilutive securities or unvested restricted stock. Unvested restricted stock, although classified as issued and outstanding at September 30, 2022 and 2021, is considered contingently returnable until the restrictions lapse and will not be included in the basic net loss per share calculation until the shares are vested. Unvested restricted stock does not contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends and dividend equivalents. Unvested RSUs are not included in calculations of basic net loss per share, as they are not considered issued and outstanding at time of grant.
Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potential shares of common stock, including stock options, preferred stock, RSUs, and unvested restricted stock, to the extent they are dilutive. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, all such common stock equivalents have been excluded from diluted net loss per share as the effect to net loss per share would be anti-dilutive (due to the net loss).
The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted net loss per share (in thousands, except per share data):

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
We are a provider of patented multi-stream collaboration products and managed services for video collaboration and network solutions.
Mezzanine™
Product Offerings
Our flagship product is called
Mezzanine™
, a family of turn-key products that enable dynamic and immersive visual collaboration across
multi-users, multi-screens, multi-devices, and multi-locations
.
Mezzanine™
allows m
ultiple people to share, control and arrange content simultaneously, from any location, enabling all participants to see the same content in its entirety at the same time in identical formats, resulting in dramatic enhancements to both in-room and virtual videoconference presentations. Applications include video telepresence, laptop and application sharing, whiteboard sharing and slides. Spatial input allows content to be spread across screens, spanning different walls, scalable to an arbitrary number of displays and interaction with our proprietary wand device.
Mezzanine™
s
ubstantially enhances day-to-day virtual meetings with technology that accelerates decision making, improves communication, and increases productivity.
Mezzanine™ scales up to support the most immersive and commanding innovation centers; across to link labs, conference spaces, and situation rooms; and down for the smallest work groups.
Mezzanine’s digital collaboration platform can be sold as delivered systems in various configurations for small teams to total immersion experiences. The family includes the 200 Series (two display screen), 300 Series (three screen), and 600 Series (six screen). We also sell maintenance and support contracts related to Mezzanine™.
Historically, customers have used Mezzanine™ products in traditional office and operating center environments such as conference rooms or other presentation spaces. As discussed below, sales of our Mezzanine product have been adversely affected by commercial response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Like many technology companies in recent months, we will continue to monitor and manage our costs relative to demand with the goal of growing the Company’s revenue in the future. To the extent we believe new investments in product development, marketing, or sales are warranted as a result of changes in market demand, we believe additional capital will be required to fund those efforts and our ongoing operations.
Managed Services for Video Collaboration
We provide a range of managed services for video collaboration, from automated to orchestrated, to simplify the user experience in an effort to drive adoption of video collaboration throughout our customers’ enterprise. We deliver our services through a hybrid service platform or as a service layer on top of our customers’ video infrastructure. We provide our customers with i) managed videoconferencing, where we set up and manage customer videoconferences and ii) remote service management, where we provide 24/7 support and management of customer video environments.
Managed Services for Network
We provide our customers with network solutions that ensure reliable, high-quality and secure traffic of video, data and internet. Network services are offered to our customers on a subscription basis. Our network services business carries variable costs associated with the purchasing and reselling of this connectivity.

Managed Services
•
The decrease in revenue for video collaboration services is mainly attributable to lower revenue from existing customers (either from reductions in price or level of services) and loss of customers to competition.
•
The decrease in revenue for network services is mainly attributable to net attrition of customers and lower demand for our services given the competitive environment and pressure on pricing that exists in the network services business.
-19-
•
We expect revenue declines in our Managed Services segment will continue in the future.
Collaboration Products
•
The decrease in revenue for our product offerings is primarily attributable to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our existing and target customers as they continue to evaluate behavioral changes in how and when employees choose to work from traditional office environments. The Company’s results reflect the challenges of long and unpredictable sales cycles, delays in customer retrofit budgets for commercial real estate spaces, project delays, and prospective orders in our distribution channels as a direct result of partner and customer implementation schedules shifting due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic in particular has, and may continue to have, a significant economic and business impact on our Company. During 2020, 2021 and the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we saw continued weakness in revenue as our partners and customers across all sectors delayed potential orders in reaction to the ongoing impacts of the pandemic that caused our customers to suspend or postpone technology changes/upgrades due to budget and occupancy uncertainties. We continue to monitor the impact of the pandemic on our customers, suppliers and logistics providers, and evaluate governmental actions being taken to curtail and respond to the spread of the virus. The significance and duration of the ongoing impact on us is still uncertain. Material adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on market drivers, our partners and customers, suppliers or logistics providers may be expected to continue to significantly impact our operating results. We will continue to actively follow, assess and analyze the ongoing impact of the pandemic and adjust our organizational structure, strategies, plans and processes to respond. Because the situation continues to evolve, we cannot reasonably estimate the ultimate impact to our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial position that the pandemic may have. Continuation of the
pandemic and government actions in response thereto could cause further disruptions to our operations and the operations of our customers, suppliers and logistics partners and may be expected to continue to significantly adversely affect our near-term and long-term revenues, earnings, liquidity and cash flows.
Cost of Revenue (exclusive of depreciation and amortization and casualty loss).
Cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization and casualty loss, includes all internal and external costs related to the delivery of revenue. Cost of revenue also includes taxes which have been billed to customers. Cost of revenue by segment is presented in the following table (in thousands):

| Collaboration Products | 289 | 507 | |||||||||
| Total cost of revenue | $ | 841 | $ | 1,228 | |||||||
The decrease in cost of revenue is mainly attributable to lower costs associated with the decrease in revenue during the same period. The Company’s gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 29% in the 2022 Third Quarter compared to 32% in the 2021 Third Quarter.

Research and Development
. Research and development expenses include internal and external costs related to developing new product offerings as well as features and enhancements to our existing product offerings. The decrease in research and development expenses for the 2022 Third Quarter compared to the 2021 Third Quarter is primarily attributable to lower personnel costs due to reduced headcount between these periods.
Sales and Marketing Expenses
. The decrease in sales and marketing expenses for 2022 Third Quarter compared to the 2021 Third Quarter is mainly attributable to lower personnel costs due to reduced headcount between these periods.
General and Administrative Expenses
. General and administrative expenses include direct corporate expenses and costs of personnel in the various corporate support categories, including executive, finance and accounting, legal, human resources and information technology. The decrease in general and administrative expenses for the 2022 Third Quarter compared to the 2021 Third Quarter is mainly attributable to a decrease in stock-based compensation expense.
Impairment Charges.
The impairment charges of $5,169,000 in the 2022 Third Quarter were attributable to impairment of long-lived assets. In addition to the impairment charges of $5,132,000 related to intangible assets (see
Note 4 - Intangible Assets)
we also recorded impairment charges of $37,000 related to property and equipment in our Collaboration Products segment. The impairment in the 2021 Third Quarter was attributable to impairment charges on property and equipment and intangible assets no longer in service. Future declines of our revenue, cash flows and/or market capitalization may give rise to a triggering event that may require the Company to record impairment charges in the future related to our intangible assets and other long-lived assets.
Depreciation and Amortization
. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses for the 2022 Third Quarter compared to the 2021 Third Quarter is mainly attributable to the disposition and impairment of certain assets during the second half of 2021 and the first nine months of 2022, as well as a decrease in depreciation as certain assets became fully depreciated.
Loss from Operations.
The decrease in the Company’s loss from operations for the 2022 Third Quarter compared to the 2021 Third Quarter is mainly attributable to lower operating expenses as addressed above.

Research and Development
. Research and development expenses include internal and external costs related to developing new product offerings as well as features and enhancements to our existing product offerings. The decrease in research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is primarily attributable to lower personnel costs due to reduced headcount, partially offset by a $372,000 increase in consulting and outsourced labor costs between these periods.
Sales and Marketing Expenses
. The decrease in sales and marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is mainly attributable to lower office costs due to fewer real estate leases.
General and Administrative Expenses
. General and administrative expenses include direct corporate expenses and costs of personnel in the various corporate support categories, including executive, finance and accounting, legal, human resources and information technology. The decrease in general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is mainly attributable to decreases of $768,000 in stock-based expense
-23-
and $167,000 in bad debt expense, and lower consulting and professional fees, partially offset by an increase in personnel expenses, primarily attributable to receiving an Employee Retention Credit (“ERC”) during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and not during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
Impairment Charges.
The impairment charges in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 are attributable to impairment charges of $7,367,000 related to goodwill, $5,132,000 related to intangible assets, $37,000 related to property and equipment, and $179,000 related to right-of-use assets associated with two of our Los Angeles, CA leases. The impairment charges in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were attributable to impairment charges on property and equipment and intangible assets no longer in service. Future declines of our revenue, cash flows and/or market capitalization may give rise to a triggering event that may require the Company to record impairment charges in the future related to our intangible assets and other long-lived assets.
Casualty Loss.
During the second quarter of 2022, the Company discovered that $533,000 of inventory was stolen from the Company’s warehouse. This theft has been recorded as a casualty loss of $533,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 on the Company’s condensed consolidated Statements of Operations. The theft is being investigated further by the Los Angeles, CA Sheriff’s Department and a claim has been filed with the Company’s insurance company. We are seeking to recover the majority of the loss through our insurance policies, and we will offset the casualty loss with the recognition of a gain of any proceeds should we subsequently receive them from our insurance company. No assurances can be provided that we will be successful in recovering any or all of the casualty loss.
Depreciation and Amortization
. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is mainly attributable to the disposition and impairment of certain assets during the second half of 2021 and the first nine months of 2022 as well as a decrease in depreciation as certain assets became fully depreciated.
Loss from Operations.
The increase in the Company’s loss from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021 is mainly attributable to higher operating expenses and lower revenue and gross profit as addressed above.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2022, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Inflation
Management does not believe inflation had a significant effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented.
Critical Accounting Policies
There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Critical accounting policies and the significant estimates made in accordance with such policies are regularly discussed with our Audit Committee. Those policies are discussed under “
Critical Accounting Policies
” in “
Part II. Item 7.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
” as well as in our condensed consolidated financial statements and the footnotes thereto, each included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on March 29, 2022 (the “2021 Annual Report”).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2022, we had $4,143,000 in cash and working capital of $4,029,000. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we incurred a net loss of $20,724,000 and used $4,876,000 of net cash in operating activities.
Our capital requirements in the future will continue to depend on numerous factors, including the timing and amount of revenue for the Company, customer renewal rates and the timing of collection of outstanding accounts receivable, in each case particularly as it relates to the Company’s major customers, the expense to deliver services, expense for sales and marketing, expense for research and development, and capital expenditures. We expect to continue to invest in product development and sales and marketing expenses with the goal of growing the Company’s revenue in the future. The Company believes that, based on its current projection of revenue, expenses, capital expenditures, and cash flows, it will not have sufficient resources to fund
-24-
its operations for the next twelve months following the filing of this Report. We believe additional capital will be required to fund operations and provide growth capital including investments in technology, product development and sales and marketing. To access capital to fund operations or provide growth capital, we will need to raise capital in one or more debt and/or equity offerings. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising necessary capital or that any such offering will be on terms acceptable to the Company. If we are unable to raise additional capital that may be needed on terms acceptable to us, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The factors discussed above raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from these uncertainties.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As a “
smaller reporting company
” as defined by the rules and regulations of the SEC, we are not required to provide this information.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2022. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2022, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms and are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
