CSP INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE ~~AND NINE~~ MONTHS ENDED ~~JUNE 30,~~DECEMBER 31, 2020 ~~AND 2019~~

Organization and Business

CSP Inc. ("CSPi" or "CSPI" or "the Company" or "we" or "our") was incorporated in 1968 and is based in Lowell, Massachusetts. CSPi and its subsidiaries develop and market IT integration solutions, advanced security products, managed IT services, purpose built network adapters, and high-performance cluster computer systems to meet the diverse requirements of its commercial and defense customers worldwide. The Company operates in two segments, its Technology Solutions (“TS”) segment and High Performance Products (“HPP”) segment.

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, without audit, and reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented. All adjustments were of a normal recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, have been omitted.

Accordingly, the Company believes that although the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, the unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the footnotes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, ~~2019.~~2020.

Revision of Prior Period Financial Statements

During the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2020, we identified an immaterial error in the first three quarters of fiscal year 2020 related to the recognition of certain revenue as “net,” when in fact the revenue should have been recorded on a “gross” basis. As a result of evaluating the error, we determined the impact was not material to our financial statements in any prior interim period. However, management has revised the first three quarters of fiscal year 2020. The first quarter revised numbers are reflected in this Form 10-Q. The only financial statement affected was the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Specifically, financial statement line items Sales - Product, Sales - Services, and Cost of sales – product. Net income (loss) and Gross profit did not change. Notes affected include Note 4 Revenue and Note 14 Segment Information.

2. Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates and assumptions are related to reserves for bad debt, reserves for inventory obsolescence, the impairment assessment of intangible assets, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, and the calculation of standalone selling price for revenue recognition, the calculation of liabilities related to deferred compensation and retirement plans and the calculation of income tax liabilities. Actual results may differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting standards adopted in fiscal year ~~2020~~2021

In ~~February 2016,~~August 2018, the FASB issued ~~ASU 2016-02,~~Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-14, ~~Leases (Topic 842)~~Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20), Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans, an amendment of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. ~~This~~Under this ASU ~~requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset~~existing disclosures not considered cost beneficial are removed, disclosures identified as relevant are added, and ~~lease liability for most lease arrangements, which excludes leases that meet~~there is added clarification regarding specific existing disclosures. For public entities, the ~~definition of a short-term lease. The Company adopted this~~new standard on October 1, 2019 using a modified retrospective transition method with an adjustment to the assets and liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet with no adjustment to any prior period. Additionally, prior comparative periods were not restated. A package of three practical expedients that is applicable to all leases as lessee or lessor was adopted. This includes not reassessing whether any expired or existing contracts contain leases, not reassessing lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and not reassessing initial direct cost for any existing lease under ASC Topic 840. The Company also elected the practical expedient as a lessee to not separate lease and non-lease components for operating leases. The statement of operations for three and nine months ended June 30, 2020 was not materially affected. However, there was a material impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2020 due to the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases, which is shown in the following table:

~~In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02,~~ ~~Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income~~, which allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate on the gross deferred tax amounts at the date of enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “2017 Tax Act”). The guidance is effective for ~~fiscal years~~annual periods beginning after December 15, ~~2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted.~~2020. Beginning October 1, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company adopted the ASU and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

~~In June 2018,~~ The disclosures will be expanded for the ~~FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07,~~ ~~Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting~~~~, an amendment of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Under~~year ended September 30, 2021 as this ASU companies will no longer be required to value non-employee awards differently from employee awards, but the accounting remains different for attribution and a contractual term election for valuing nonemployee equity share options. Equity-classified awards to nonemployees will now be measured at the grant date using fair value of the equity instruments the company is obligated to issue and recognition is associated with the probable outcome. Awards are subsequently measured using stock compensation guidance unless they are modified after the nonemployee stops providing goods or services. Existing disclosure requirements within the stock compensation guidance also apply to nonemployee awards. For public entities, the new standard ~~is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including~~does not affect interim ~~periods within that fiscal year.

New accounting standards not adopted as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), an amendment of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. This ASU will change how entities account for credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments. For trade receivables, loans and held-to-maturity debt securities entities will be required to estimate lifetime expected credit losses. For available-for-sale debt securities entities will be required to recognize an allowance for credit losses rather than a reduction to the carrying value of the asset. Additionally, there will be a significant increase in the amount of disclosures by year of origination for certain financing receivables. For public entities classified as a smaller reporting company, the new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, ~~2019,~~2022 (ASU 2019-10 Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates), including interim periods within that annual period.

~~In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14,~~ ~~Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20)~~, Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans, an amendment of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Under this ASU existing disclosures not considered cost beneficial are removed, disclosures identified as relevant are added, and there is added clarification regarding specific existing disclosures. For public entities, the new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2018-14 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

4. Revenue

We derive revenue from the sale of integrated hardware and software, third-party service contracts, professional services, managed services, financing of hardware and software, and other services.

We recognize revenue from hardware upon transfer of control, which is at a point in time typically upon shipment when title transfers. Revenue from software is recognized at a point in time when the license is granted.

We recognize revenue from third-party service contracts as either gross sales or net sales depending on whether the Company is acting as a principal party to the transaction or simply acting as an agent or broker based on control and timing. The Company is a principal if it controls the good or service before that good or service is transferred to the customer. We record revenue as gross when the Company is a principal party to the arrangement and net of cost when we are acting as a broker or agent. Under gross sales recognition, the entire selling price is recorded in revenue and our cost to the third-party service provider or vendor is recorded in cost of goods sold. Under net sales recognition, the cost to the third-party service provider or vendor is recorded as a reduction to revenue resulting in net sales equal to the gross profit on the transaction. Third-party service contracts are sold in different combinations with hardware, software, and services. We have determined the third-party services contracts are a single performance obligation in each sale. When the Company is an agent, revenue is typically recorded at a point in time. When the Company is the principal, revenue is recognized over the contract term.

Professional services generally include implementation, installation, and training services. Professional services are considered a series of distinct services that form one performance obligation and revenue is recognized over time as services are performed.

Table of Contents

Revenue generated from managed services is recognized over the term of the contract. Certain managed services contracts include financing of hardware and software. Revenues from arrangements which include financing are allocated considering relative standalone selling prices of lease and non-lease components within the agreement. The lease component includes hardware, which is subject to ASC 842, Leases. The non-lease components are subject to ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Other services generally include revenue generated through our royalty, extended warranty, multicomputer repair, and maintenance contracts. Royalty revenue is sales-based and recognized on date of subsequent sale of the product, which occurs on the date of customer shipment. Revenue from extended warranty contracts is recognized evenly over the period of the warranty. Multicomputer repair services revenue is recognized upon control transfer when the customer takes possession of the computer at time of shipping. Revenue generated from maintenance services is recognized evenly over the term of the contract.

Variable consideration is immaterial. The right of return risk lies with the original manufacturer of the product. Managed service contracts contain the right to refund if canceled within 30 days of inception. Any products with a standard warranty are treated as a warranty obligation under ASC 460, Guarantees.

The following policies are applicable to our major categories of segment revenue transactions:

TS Segment Revenue

TS Segment revenue is derived from the sale of hardware, software, professional services, third-party service contracts, maintenance contracts, managed services, and financing of hardware and software. Financing revenue pertaining to the portion of an arrangement containing a lease is recognized in accordance with ASC 842. Financing revenue related to the lease is recorded in revenue as equipment leasing is part of the Company’s operations.

Third-party service contracts are evaluated to determine whether such service revenue should be recorded as gross or net sales and whether over time or at point in time.

~~Table of Contents~~

HPP Segment Revenue

HPP segment revenue is derived from the sale of integrated hardware and software, maintenance, and other services through the Multicomputer, Myricom, and ~~Myricom~~ARIA product lines.

Myricom revenue is derived from the sale of products, which are comprised of both hardware and embedded software which is essential to the products’ functionality, and post contract maintenance and support. Post contract maintenance and support is considered immaterial in the context of the contract and therefore is not a separate performance obligation.

* Finance revenue is related to equipment leasing and is not subject to the guidance on revenue from contracts with customers (ASC 606).

Significant Judgments

The input method using labor hours expended relative to the total expected hours is used to recognize revenue for professional services. Only the hours that depict the Company’s performance toward satisfying a performance obligation are used for progress. An estimate for professional services is made at the beginning of each contract based on prior experience and monitored throughout the services. This method is most appropriate as it depicts the measure of progress towards satisfaction of the performance obligation.

A financing component exists when at contract inception the period between the transfer of a promised good and/or service to the customer differs from when the customer pays for the good and/or service. As a practical expedient, the Company has elected not to adjust the amount of consideration for effects of a significant financing component when it is anticipated the promised good or service will be transferred and the subsequent payment will be one year or less.

Certain contracts contain a financing component including managed services contracts with financing of hardware and software. The interest rate used reflects the approximate interest rate consistent with a separate financing transaction with the customer at the inception of the agreement. Revenues from arrangements which include financing are allocated considering relative standalone selling prices of lease and non-lease components within the agreement. The lease component includes hardware, which is subject to ASC 842, Leases. The non-lease components are subject to ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

When product and non-managed services are sold together, the allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation is calculated ~~using~~based on the estimated relative selling price or a budgeted cost-plus margin ~~approach.~~approach, as appropriate. Due to the complex nature of these contracts, there is significant judgment in allocating the transaction price. These estimates are periodically reviewed by project managers, engineers, and other staff involved to ensure estimates are appropriate. For items sold separately, including hardware, software, professional services, maintenance contracts, other services, and third-party service contracts, there is no allocation as there is one performance obligation.

We recognize revenue from third-party service contracts as either gross sales or net sales depending on whether the Company is acting as a principal party to the transaction or simply acting as an agent or broker based on control and timing. The Company is a principal if it controls the good or service before that good or service is transferred to the customer. We record revenue as gross when the Company is a principal party to the arrangement and net of cost when we are acting as a broker or agent for a third party. Under gross sales recognition, the entire selling price is recorded in revenue and our cost to the third-party service provider or vendor is recorded in cost of goods sold. Under net sales recognition, the cost to the third-party service provider or vendor is recorded as a reduction to revenue resulting in net sales equal to the gross profit on the transaction. Third-party service contracts are sold in different combinations with hardware, software, and services. When the Company is an agent, revenue is typically recorded at a point in time. When the Company is the principal, revenue is recognized over the contract term. We have concluded we are the agent in sales of third-party maintenance, software or hardware support, and certain security software that is sold with integral third-party delivered software maintenance that include critical updates.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

When the Company has performed work but does not have an unconditional right to payment, a contract asset is recorded. When the Company has the right to bill a customer, accounts receivable is recorded as an unconditional right exists. Current contract assets were ~~$1.6~~$0.8 million and ~~$0.6~~$1.0 million as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. The current portion is recorded in other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets. There were no non-current contract assets as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and September 30, ~~2019.~~2020. The difference in the balances is due to regular timing differences between when work is performed and having an unconditional right to payment.

Contract liabilities arise when payment is received before the Company transfers a good or service to the customer. Current contract liabilities were ~~$1.3~~$1.2 million and ~~$0.7~~$0.9 million as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. The current portion of contract liabilities is recorded in deferred revenue on the consolidated balance sheets.

~~Table of Contents~~

The long-term portion of contract liabilities were $0.2 million and ~~$0.3~~$0.2 million as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. These non-current liabilities are recorded in other noncurrent liabilities. Revenue recognized for the ~~three and nine months~~year ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 that was included in contract liabilities as of the beginning of the period was ~~$0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively.~~$0.3 million.

Contract Costs

Incremental costs of obtaining a contract involving customer transactions where the revenue and the related transfer of goods and services are equal to or less than a one-year period, are expensed as incurred, utilizing the practical expedient in ASC 340-40-25-4. For a period greater than one year, incremental contract costs are capitalized if the Company expects to recover these costs. The costs are amortized over the contract term and expected renewal periods. The period of amortization is generally three to six years. Incremental costs are related to commissions in the TS portion of the business. Current capitalized contract costs are within the other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and September 30, ~~2019.~~2020. The portion of current capitalized costs were ~~$82~~$104 thousand and ~~$85~~$130 thousand as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. There are no non-current capitalized costs on the consolidated balance sheets as these commissions are paid annually even when the contract extends beyond a one-year period. The amount of incremental costs amortized for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and 2019 were ~~$81~~$87 thousand and ~~$243 thousand, respectively. The amount of incremental costs amortized for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2019 were $66 thousand and $174~~$78 thousand, respectively. This is recorded in selling, general, and administrative expenses. There was no impairment related to incremental costs capitalized during the three ~~and nine months~~ ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020.

Costs to fulfill a contract are capitalized when the costs are related to a contract or anticipated contract, generate or enhance resources that will be used in satisfying performance obligations in the future, and costs are recoverable. Costs to fulfill a contract are related to the TS portion of the business and involve activities performed before managed services can be completed. Current capitalized fulfillment costs are in the other current assets and noncurrent costs are in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The portion of current capitalized costs were $13 thousand and ~~$47~~$13 thousand as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. The portion of noncurrent capitalized costs ~~were $25 thousand~~ as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and ~~there were not any as of~~ September ~~30, 2019. The amount of fulfillment costs amortized for three and nine months ended June~~ 30, 2020 were $3$18 thousand and $9$22 thousand, respectively. The amount of fulfillment costs amortized for three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and 2019 were $1$3 thousand and $9$3 thousand, ~~respectively, and~~respectively. These costs amortized were recorded in cost of sales. There was no impairment related to fulfillment costs capitalized.

Other

Projects are typically billed upon completion or at certain milestones. Product and services are typically billed when shipped or as services are being performed. Payment terms are typically 30 days to pay in full except in Europe where it could be up to 90 days. Most of the Company’s contracts are less than one year. As a practical expedient, the Company has elected not to adjust the amount of consideration for effects of a significant financing component when it is anticipated the promised good or service will be transferred and the subsequent payment will be one year or less. There are certain contracts that do contain a financing component. See Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information. The Company elected to use the optional exemption to not disclose the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that have an original expected duration of one year or less. This is due to a low amount of performance obligations, which are less than one year from being unsatisfied at each period end. Most of these contracts are related to product sales.

The Company has certain contracts that have an original term of more than one year. The royalty agreement is longer than one year, but not included in the table below as the royalties are sales-based. Managed service contracts are generally longer than one year.

5. Earnings Per Share of Common Stock

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share reflects the maximum dilution that would have resulted from the assumed exercise and share repurchase related to dilutive stock options and is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the assumed weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

We are required to present earnings per share ~~or EPS,~~(“EPS”), utilizing the two class method because we had outstanding, non-vested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, which are considered participating securities.

Basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the Company’s reported net loss attributable to common stockholders are as follows:

6. Accounts and Long-Term Receivable

Within accounts receivable and long-term receivable there are amounts due reflecting sales whose payment terms exceed one year. This financing is separate from agreements with a leasing component, see Note 8 Leases for financing through leases. These receivables are included in Accounts Receivable and Long-Term Receivable in the amount of ~~$2.3~~ $2.4

Table of Contents

million and ~~$5.0~~$3.4 million as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020. These receivables are included in Accounts Receivable and Long-Term Receivable in the amount of ~~$2.1~~$2.3 million and ~~$5.0~~$3.5 million as of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. The receivables with a payment term exceeding one year carry an average weighted interest rate of ~~6.5%~~6.2%, which reflects the approximate interest rate consistent with a separate financing transaction with the customer at the inception of the agreement.

There is not an allowance for credit losses nor impairments for accounts and long-term receivables with a contractual maturity of over one year. All accounts have no past amounts due as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 or September 30, ~~2019.~~2020. There was no activity in the allowance for credit losses of these receivables for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2019, respectively. All these agreements are looked at as one portfolio in determining credit losses. There are various factors that are considered in extending a customer payment terms longer than one year including payment history, economic conditions, and capacity to pay. The credit quality of customers is monitored by payment activity. The unearned income represents a rate similar to market at the inception of the agreement.

The amount of interest income earned from sales whose payment terms exceed one year for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and 2019 was ~~$120~~$92 thousand and ~~$349 thousand, respectively. The amount of interest income earned from this type of agreement for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2019 was $11 thousand and $12~~$116 thousand, respectively. Interest income from these agreements is recorded in Other income, net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Receivables whose payment terms exceed one year are placed on nonaccrual status, meaning interest income stops being recorded, when the customer has a past due amount in excess of 30 days or reasonable doubt exists in collecting all interest and principal. A payment due in excess of 30 days is considered delinquent. If a payment is received for a receivable on nonaccrual status the payment is first applied to interest and then principal. Recording interest income resumes once no reasonable doubt exists regarding collecting all interest and principal.

8. Leases

~~Lessee~~

At the inception of an arrangement, the Company determines whether the arrangement contains a lease. This includes arrangements with goods and services to determine if there is an embedded lease. An arrangement containing a lease would allow the Company the right to control an implicitly or explicitly identified asset. If there is a lease in an arrangement, the classification is determined at inception of the arrangement. Certain leases may contain transfer of ownership or an option to purchase the underlying asset. The most relevant criterion for our lease classification is transfer of ownership, which if included in the arrangement makes the lease a finance lease rather than an operating lease.

The discount rate used to assess classification is the incremental borrowing rate at the commencement date due to the implicit rate not being readily determinable. The incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest the Company would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term and amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The lease term includes periods where we are reasonably certain we will exercise the renewal option. The Company has elected not to apply Subtopic ~~ASC 842-25~~ to short-term leases, which are defined as a lease that has a lease term of 12 months or less and does not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. Therefore, there are no right-of-use assets or lease liabilities related to short-term leases in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and the lease payments are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases are typically not able to be terminated without penalty. None of our lease arrangements contain residual value guarantees, restrictions, or covenants. None of the Company’s current leases are with related parties. The office lease in Lowell, Massachusetts was renewed through February 2022. Additionally, the office lease in Deerfield Beach, FL was renewed through June 2025. The right-of-use asset and lease liability was adjusted for the Lowell lease. The Deerfield Beach lease renewal period was included in the right-of-use asset and lease liability upon adoption of ASC 842 on October 1, 2019 because it was reasonably certain this renewal period would be exercised by the Company. There are no lease arrangements that we have entered into as of June 30, 2020 that have not yet commenced.

~~Operating leases~~

The Company has operating leases for office space, data centers, and other information technology equipment under various leases. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date using the present value of the fixed lease payments over the lease term. We do not have leases with variable consideration. The incremental borrowing rate is used in determining present value. Certain operating leases, primarily office space and IT equipment, have an option to extend the lease. Renewal periods related to certain lease agreements related to office buildings are included in the lease term for lease accounting.

The Company has operating lease agreements with lease components (e.g. fixed payments including rent, real estate taxes, and insurance costs) as well as nonlease components (e.g. common-area maintenance, colocation services). The Company has elected to account for lease and nonlease components as one single lease component for all classes of assets. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

~~Finance leases~~

The Company has finance leases for information technology equipment and subleases all this equipment (see Lessor section below for details). All finance leases transfer ownership to the Company, which meets the criterion to be a finance lease. Due to our finance leases being subleases, there is no finance right-of-use assets. However, there is a net investment in lease in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

~~Lessor~~

The Company is a lessor, but only as a sublessor. The process for identifying and classifying a lease is similar to the process described above in the lessee section. Additionally, the most relevant criteria to classification is transfer of ownership and present value of the total lease payments in relation to fair value of the underlying asset. The Company as a lessor has both sales-type and direct financing leases. The Company as a lessor does not have operating leases. All the

~~Table of Contents~~

Company’s sublease agreements are bundled agreements containing managed services, software, and other services. The fixed payments under bundled agreements are allocated based on the relative standalone selling prices of the lease and non-lease deliverables are consistent with ASC 606. The allocation of the fixed payments may be calculated using a budgeted cost-plus margin approach if there are other services in addition to managed services. Due to the complex nature of these contracts, there is significant judgment in allocating the fixed payments. There is no variable consideration in these agreements. The discount rate used as a lessor pertaining to the lease component is the implicit rate. As sublessor, lease agreements contain an option to purchase the underlying asset or transfers ownership at the end of the lease. The leases typically do not have any residual value to the Company. In the Company’s sublessor agreements, the payments allocated to the lease component cannot be terminated. There were no new agreements where the Company was a lessor for the nine months ended June 30, 2020.

9. Notes Payable and Line of Credit

In September 2019, the Company borrowed $1.0 million with a 5.0% rate of interest related to a multi-year agreement with a customer. See Note 6 for the disclosure related to the receivables.

In October 2019, the Company borrowed $2.0 million with a 5.1% rate of interest related to a multi-year agreement with a customer.

On April 17, 2020, CSP, Inc. and Modcomp, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary (collectively, the “Borrowers”) each received a loan in the form of a promissory note from Paragon Bank (“Lender”) in the amounts of $827,000 and $1,353,600, respectively (the “SBA Loans”) under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), which was established under the recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”). The SBA Loans have a two-year term and carry an annual fixed interest rate of 1%.

The SBA Loans ~~provide~~provided for customary events of default, including, among others, those relating to failure to make payment, bankruptcy, materially false or misleading representations to Lender or SBA, and adverse changes in the financial condition or business operations that Lender ~~believes may~~believed could materially affect Borrowers’ ability to pay the SBA

The Company elected to use the 24 week period. However, based on guidance from the SBA the borrowers may submit a loan forgiveness application any time on or before the maturity date of the loan – including before the end of the covered period – if the borrower has used all of the loan proceeds for which the borrower is requesting forgiveness, which is our intention. The amount of SBA Loans forgiveness ~~shall be~~was calculated in accordance with the requirements of the ~~Paycheck Protection Program,~~PPP, including provisions of Section 1106 of the CARES Act.

As of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the Company maintained an inventory line of credit with a borrowing capacity of $15.0 ~~and $20.0 million, respectively.~~million. It may be used by the TS and HPP ~~segment~~segments in the U.S. to purchase inventory from approved vendors with payment terms which exceed those offered by the vendors. No interest accrues under the inventory line of credit when advances are paid within terms, however, late payments are subject to an interest charge of Prime plus 5%. The credit agreement for the inventory line of credit contains financial covenants which require the Company to maintain the following TS segment-specific financial ratios: (1) a minimum current ratio of 1.2, (2) tangible net worth of no less than $4.0 million, and (3) a maximum ratio of total liabilities to total net worth of less than 5.0:1. As of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, Company borrowings, all from the TS segment, under the inventory line of credit were ~~$1.1~~$0.8 million and ~~$2.5~~$1.6 million, respectively, and the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants. As of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and September 30, ~~2019~~2020 this line of credit also includes availability of a limited cash

10. Pension and Retirement Plans

The Company’s operations have defined benefit and defined contribution plans in the U.K. and in the U.S. In the U.K., the Company provides defined benefit pension plans and defined contribution plans for some of its employees. In the U.S., the Company provides benefits through supplemental retirement plans to certain former employees. The U.S. supplemental retirement plans have life insurance policies which are not plan assets but were purchased by the Company as a vehicle to fund the costs of the plan. The Company also provides for officer death benefits through post-retirement plans to certain officers of the Company in the U.S. All the Company’s defined benefit plans are closed to newly hired employees and have been since September 2009.

The Company funds its pension plans in amounts sufficient to meet the requirements set forth in applicable employee benefits laws and local tax laws. Liabilities for amounts in excess of these funding levels are accrued and reported in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company’s pension plan in the U.K. is the only plan with plan assets. The plan assets consist of an investment in a commingled fund which in turn comprises a diversified mix of assets including corporate equity securities, government securities and corporate debt securities.

11. Income Taxes

An income tax ~~expense~~provision of ~~$10~~$110 thousand was recorded for the three months ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 compared to an income tax benefit of ~~$326~~$70 thousand in the same period of 2019. The ~~income~~increase in tax expense is primarily related to the write down of a deferred tax asset as a result of the change in tax law, allowing for the ~~nine months ended June 30, 2020 was $1.1 million and~~immediate deduction of covered expenses incurred through the ~~income tax benefit for~~Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan with an associated change in the ~~same period of the prior year was $466 thousand.~~

~~The year to date income tax expense reflects the recording of a~~ valuation allowance against deferred tax assets from the prior period, offset by the forgiveness of the PPP Loans for which the income is excluded for tax purposes. This additional expense was recorded discretely during the ~~second quarter, as~~quarter. In the prior period, the Company ~~has concluded that it is more likely than not that~~established a ~~portion of its~~ deferred tax ~~assets will not~~asset for these expenses that were expected to be ~~realized~~deductible in light of recent results, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the resulting economic fallout. The year to date income tax expense is net of federal tax benefits anticipated from the carryback of current and prior period federal net operating losses, as allowed under the recently enacted CARES Act, to recover federal taxes paid in prior periods. The 2019 year to date income tax benefit reflected the benefit of prior year losses.a future period.

The provisions above are estimates, and accordingly, changes to these estimates will be recorded in subsequent periods as more information and guidance becomes available.

~~15.~~ Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

Under the fair value standards fair value is based on the exit price and defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement should reflect all the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. A fair value hierarchy is established in the authoritative guidance outlined in three levels ranking from Level 1 to Level 3 with Level 1 being the highest priority.

Level 1: observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets

Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly

Level 3: unobservable inputs (e.g., a reporting entity’s or other entity’s own data)

The Company had no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring (except our pension plan assets and whole life insurance policies, see Note 10) or non-recurring basis as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 or September 30, ~~2019.~~2020.

~~Table of Contents~~

To estimate fair value of the financial instruments below, quoted market prices are used when available and classified within Level 1. If this data is not available, we use observable market-based inputs to estimate fair value, which are classified within Level 2. If the preceding information is unavailable, we use internally generated data to estimate fair value which is classified within Level 3.

Income (loss) from operations consists of sales less cost of sales, engineering and development expenses, and selling, general and administrative expenses but is not affected by either other income/expense or by income taxes expense (benefit). Non-operating expenses/income consists principally of investment income, interest income from transactions with payment terms exceeding one year (see Note 6 for details), and interest expense. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

The following table lists customers from which the Company derived revenues ~~in excess~~ of 10% or more of total revenues for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and 2019.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

The discussion below contains certain forward-looking statements including, but not limited to, among others, statements concerning future revenues and future business plans. Forward-looking statements include statements in which we use words such as “expect”, “believe”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “project”, “estimate”, “should”, “could”, “may”, “plan”, “potential”, “predict”, “project”, “will”, “would” and similar expressions. Although we believe the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, the forward-looking statements are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, and thus we cannot assure you that these expectations will prove to have been correct, and actual results may vary from those contained in such forward-looking statements. We discuss many of these risks and uncertainties in Item 1A under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, and in this Form 10-Q. Factors that may cause such variances include, but are not limited to, our dependence on a small number of customers for a significant portion of our revenue, our high dependence on contracts with the U.S. federal government, our reliance in certain circumstances on single sources for supply of key product components, intense competition in the market segments in which we operate, the recent changes in the U.S. Tax laws, and the impact of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Also, forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this document. Except as required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained in this report, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. This management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this filing and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, ~~2019.~~2020.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to uncollectible receivables, inventory valuation, impairment assessment of intangibles, income taxes, deferred compensation and retirement plans, as well as estimated selling prices used for revenue recognition and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical performance and on various other assumptions 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 that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. A description of our critical accounting policies is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, ~~2019~~2020 in the “Critical Accounting Policies” section contained in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. ~~Due to adoption of ASU No. 2016-02,~~ ~~Leases (ASC 842)~~, our lease accounting policy has changed effective October 1, 2019 and is included in Note 8 of our unaudited consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with effects of initial adoption in Note 3.

Observations on effects of novel coronavirus (COVID-19)

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak as a pandemic. The outbreak has and continues to adversely affect the economies of the U.S., U.K., and other international markets and economies in which we operate. As a result of the World Health Organization characterizing the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic, national, state, and local governments have and continue to take actions such as declaring a state of emergency, implementing social distancing and other guidelines, and shutting down and/or limiting the opening or operation of certain businesses which are not considered essential. The Company continues to comply with such actions

The pandemic has also had an adverse effect on our ability to transact one-on-one business. Due to the uncertainty of the pandemic, including but not limited to, regulatory measures or voluntary actions that have and may be put in place to limit the spread of COVID-19 and the duration of such measures, the impact of any further spread of COVID-19, or the resurgence of COVID-19 in a given geographic region after it has hit its “peak,” at this time, we cannot make a reasonable estimate on the extent or duration of the impacts on our business.

Please refer to Item 1A Risk Factors located in Part II Other Information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for discussion of the risks related to COVID-19 on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Results of Operations

Overview of the three months ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020

Our revenues decreased by approximately ~~$8.1~~$5.5 million, or ~~38%~~33%, to ~~$13.5~~$11.4 million for the three months ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 as compared to ~~$21.6~~$16.9 million for the three months ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2019. The decrease in revenue is the result of a decrease of ~~$7.5~~$6.0 million in our TS segment, ~~combined with~~partially offset by a ~~$0.6~~$0.5 million ~~decrease~~increase in our HPP segment. Our gross margin percentage increased to ~~31%~~30% of revenues for the three months ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 from ~~22%~~24% for the three months ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2019. The increase is primarily attributed to ~~both~~ the ~~TS and~~ HPP segment. For the three months ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 there was an operating loss of ~~$0.4~~$0.5 million compared to an operating loss of $0.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019, primarily as a result of decreased sales. Other income, (expense) net increased approximately $2.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020 to income of $1.8 million as compared to expense of $0.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The primary components of Other income, (expense) include an increase from debt forgiveness of loans taken out at each operating segment under the Payroll Protection Program totaling 2.2 million, partially offset by a foreign exchange loss of $0.5 million. The income tax provision was $0.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020, as compared to income tax benefit of $0.1 million for the three months ended ~~June 30, 2019, primarily as a result of decreased sales. Our provision for income~~December 31, 2019. The effective tax ~~was a tax expense of $10 thousand~~rate for the ~~three months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to a tax benefit of $326 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2019.~~current quarter was 8.7%. The effective tax expense rate was primarily driven by an increase in tax expense. This is primarily related to the write off of a deferred tax asset as a result of the change in tax law, allowing for the ~~current quarter~~immediate deduction of covered expenses incurred through the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan along with the associated change in valuation allowance against deferred tax assets from the prior period, offset by the forgiveness of the PPP Loans for which the income is ~~(5%).~~

excluded for tax purposes. This additional expense was recorded discretely during the quarter. In the prior period, the Company established a deferred tax asset for these expenses that were expected to be deductible in a future period.

The decrease in TS segment product revenues of ~~$7.0~~approximately $5.6 million during the period is primarily the result of a decrease of ~~$6.3~~$6.4 million in our U.S. division, ~~combined with a decrease~~partially offset by an increase in the U.K. division of ~~$0.7~~$0.8 million. The ~~$6.3~~$6.4 million decrease in the U.S. division is primarily the result of decreased sales to several major customers during the period. The ~~$0.7~~$0.8 million ~~decrease~~increase in the U.K. division product revenues is primarily the result of ~~lower~~higher sales volume to one major customer during the period as compared to the prior year period. There iswas a decrease in TS segment service revenues of ~~$0.5~~$0.4 million during the period as compared to the prior year period, which is primarily due to a decrease in the U.S. division service ~~revenues. The U.S. division service~~ revenues ~~decrease is substantially the result~~consisting of a decrease of ~~$0.9~~$0.6 million in internal service and third party service revenues, partially offset ~~with~~by a ~~$0.4~~$0.1 million increase in managed service ~~contracts.~~contract revenues and a $0.1 million increase in third party maintenance revenues.

This debt forgiveness is related to two loans (one at each operating segment) taken out under the Payroll Protection Program. The largest offset was an increase in expense of $0.1 million in a foreign exchange ~~gain of $113 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2020, as compared to a gain of $8 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2019.~~loss. In consolidation, U.S. dollars and Euros are remeasured into the functional currency, British Pounds, of our U.K. subsidiary. This non-cash remeasurement is included in foreign exchange gain or loss on the income statement and the foreign exchange ~~gain~~loss is primarily from a Euro and U.S. Dollar bank account. ~~There were 500,000 Euros converted to U.S. Dollars during the three months ended June 30, 2020.~~

The interest income ~~increase~~decrease of ~~$54 thousand~~$0.1 million for the three months ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 as compared to the three months ended ~~June 30, 2019~~December 31, 2020 is primarily related to agreements that have payment terms in excess of one year (see Note 6 in Item 1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q) from the TS-US segment.

Income Taxes

AnThe income tax ~~expense of $10 thousand~~provision was ~~recorded~~$0.1 million for the three months ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020, as compared to an income tax benefit of ~~$326 thousand~~$0.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The effective tax rate for the current quarter was 8.7%. The effective tax expense rate was primarily driven by an increase in tax expense. This is primarily related to the ~~same~~write off of a deferred tax asset as a result of the change in tax law, allowing for the immediate deduction of covered expenses incurred through the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan along with the associated change in valuation allowance against deferred tax assets from the prior period, offset by the forgiveness of ~~2019.~~

the PPP Loans for which the income is excluded for tax purposes. This additional expense was recorded discretely during the quarter. In the prior period, the Company established a deferred tax asset for these expenses that were expected to be deductible in a future period.

Generally, fluctuations in the effective tax rate are primarily due to changes in our geographic pretax income resulting from our business mix and changes in the tax impact of permanent differences, other special items, and other discrete tax items, which may have unique tax implications depending on the nature of the item.

~~Overview of the nine months ended June 30, 2020~~

Our revenues decreased by approximately $10.7 million, or 19%, to $46.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $56.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease in overall revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the prior fiscal year nine month period is the result of an approximately $9.0 million decrease in our TS segment revenue combined with a $1.7 million decrease in our HPP segment revenue. The TS segment revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 is primarily impacted by a decrease of sales to a major customer in the U.K. Division and a decrease in product revenue due to several major customers in the U.S. division, partially offset in the U.S. division by increased volume of product sales to one major customer and increased volume in managed services revenues. The $1.7 million decrease in HPP segment revenue for the nine month period ended June 30, 2020 is primarily impacted by decreased combined Myricom and Multicomputer product sales of $2.2 million, partially offset by higher royalties recognized of approximately $0.5 million on high-speed processing boards during the nine months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the nine month period ended June 30, 2019. Our overall gross margin percentage increased to 28% of revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 from 23% of revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 2019. Our operating loss increased by approximately $0.3 million resulting in an operating loss of $0.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to operating loss of $0.6 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2019, primarily as a result of decreased product revenues. Our provision for income tax was a tax expense of $1.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to a tax benefit of $466 thousand for the nine months ended June 30, 2019. The effective tax expense rate for the current period is (297)%. The negative rate is high due to the recording of a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets during the second quarter, as the Company has concluded

~~Table of Contents~~

that it is more likely than not that a portion of its deferred tax assets will not be realized in light of recent results, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the resulting economic fallout. The current tax expense is net of federal tax benefits anticipated from the carryback of current and prior period federal net operating losses, as allowed under the recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), to recover federal taxes paid in prior periods. The recording of a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets is a non-cash expense and the federal tax benefits will result in a cash refund.

The decrease in TS segment product revenues of $9.3 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the prior year period is the result of a $3.5 million decrease in our U.K. division combined with a decrease in product revenues of $5.8 million in our U.S. division. The $5.8 million decrease in the U.S. division product revenues is the result of decreased sales to several major customers. The $3.5 million decrease in the U.K. division product revenue is due to sales to one customer that did not reoccur in the current nine month period ended June 30, 2020. The increase in TS segment service revenues of $0.3 million for the nine month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the prior year period is primarily the result of an increase of $0.3 million in our U.S. division, comprised of a $1.6 million increase in managed service contract revenues and an increase of $0.3 million in third party maintenance revenue, partially offset by a $1.6 million decrease in internal and third party service revenues.

The HPP product revenue decrease of $2.2 million during the nine month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the prior year period is due to decreased Multicomputer product sales of $0.5 million and decreased Myricom sales of $1.7 million, of which $1.3 million was related to a one time order that did not reoccur in the current period. The increase in HPP services revenues of approximately $0.6 million for the period is the result of an increase in royalty revenues on high-speed processing boards related to the E2D program during the nine months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2019.

The $7.2 million decrease in the Americas revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2019 is primarily due to decreased revenue by our TS U.S. division of $5.2 million and decreased revenue by our TS U.K. division of $2.0 million. The $1.6 million decrease in Europe revenue for the nine month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the prior year period is primarily due to decreased sales by our TS U.K. division of $1.1 million, decreased sales by our TS U.S. division of $0.3 million, and decreased sales in our HPP segment of $0.2 million for the nine month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the prior fiscal year period. The $1.9 million decrease in Asia revenue for the nine month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the prior year period is primarily due to decreased sales by our HPP segment of $1.4 million and decreased sales in our TS U.K. division of $0.5 million for the nine month period ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the prior fiscal year period.

~~Gross Margins~~

Our gross margin ("GM") decreased by $0.2 million to $12.7 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to a gross margin of approximately $12.9 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2019. However, the GM as a percentage of revenue increased to 28% for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 from 23% for the nine months ended June 30, 2019.

The 2% increase in GM on product as a percentage of product sales is due to increased vendor rebates and increased high margin software. The 8% increase in GM on services as a percentage of services sales is due to increased volume of managed services.

The overall HPP segment GM as a percentage of sales increased to 58% for the period from 51% in the same prior year period. The 7% increase in total GM as a percentage of sales in the HPP segment is primarily attributed to an increase in services margin including a $560 thousand increase of royalty revenues, while total GM from products decreased because product GM as a percentage of product sales are significantly lower than services.

~~Operating Expenses~~

~~Engineering and Development Expenses~~

Engineering and development expenses remained relatively flat at $2.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $2.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2019. The current period expenses were primarily for product engineering expenses incurred in connection with continued development of the ARIA SDS cyber security products.

SG&A expenses increased by approximately $0.2 million, or 1%, for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2019. The slight increase in TS segment expenses is primarily attributed to

increased payroll and variable compensation expenses. The $0.1 million increase, or 4%, for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2019 in HPP segment expenses is primarily due to increases in payroll expenses related to sales employees.

The $457 thousand increase to total other income (expense), net for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2019 is primarily driven by an increase in interest income of $269 thousand and an increase in foreign exchange gain of $279 thousand, partially offset by an increase of $94 thousand of interest expense. There were 500,000 Euros converted to U.S. Dollars during the nine months ended June 30, 2020.

~~The increase in interest income of $269 thousand is primarily related to agreements that have payment terms in excess of one year (see Note 6) from the TS-US segment.~~

~~Income Taxes~~

The income tax provision was $1.1 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2020 compared to income tax benefit of $466 thousand in the same period of 2019. The U.K. division did not have any tax expense in the third quarter of fiscal year 2020 due to its pension contribution and the utilization of a portion of its net tax operating loss.

The income tax provision for the nine months period is not comparable to the same period of the prior year due to the recording of a valuation allowance in the current period net of the impact of the federal tax benefits anticipated from the carryback of current and prior period federal net operating losses, as allowed under the recently enacted CARES Act, to recover federal taxes paid in prior periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary source of liquidity is our cash and cash equivalents, which increased by ~~$1.9~~$0.6 million to ~~$20.0~~$19.9 million as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 from ~~$18.1~~$19.3 million as of September 30, ~~2019. As of May 14, 2020, we have suspended our quarterly dividend until further economic clarity.~~2020.

Our significant sources of cash for the ~~nine months~~year ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 included a decrease in accounts receivable of ~~$4.2~~$1.3 million, ~~proceeds from debt~~an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of ~~$4.2~~$0.4 million, and ~~a decrease~~an increase in ~~inventories~~deferred revenue of ~~$1.1~~$0.3 million.

Our significant uses of cash for the ~~nine months~~year ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 included ~~a decrease of accounts payable and accrued expenses of $6.9 million,~~ net payment on our line of credit ~~$1.3~~of $0.8 million and ~~dividends paid~~an increase in inventories of ~~$1.3~~$0.6 million.

~~Cash~~Our cash held by our foreign subsidiary in the United Kingdom totaled approximately ~~$10.0~~$8.9 million as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 ~~and consists~~consisted of ~~2.4~~0.8 million Euros, ~~0.2~~0.3 million British Pounds, and ~~6.6~~7.4 million U.S. Dollars. This cash is included in our total cash and cash equivalents reported within the financial statements.

As of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and September 30, ~~2019~~2020 the Company maintained a line of credit with a capacity of up to $15.0 million ~~and $20.0 million~~ for inventory accessible to both the HPP and TS ~~segments, respectively.~~segments. This line of credit also includes availability of a limited cash withdrawal of up to $1.0 ~~million and $1.5 million as of June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, respectively.~~million. An amount of ~~$13.9~~$14.2 million and ~~$17.5~~$13.4 million were available as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. As of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020 and September 30, ~~2019~~2020 there were no cash withdrawals outstanding. ~~The amount of the inventory line of credit and cash withdrawal was lowered in June of 2020 primarily due to lack of need for full use of the line.~~

If cash generated from operations is insufficient to satisfy working capital requirements, we may need to access funds through bank loans or other means. If we are unable to secure additional financing, we may not be able to complete development or enhancement of products, take advantage of future opportunities, respond to competition, retain key employees, or continue to effectively operate our business.

On April 17, 2020, the Company and Modcomp, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary each received a loan (“SBA Loans”) in the form of a promissory note from Paragon Bank in the amounts of $827,000 and $1,353,600, respectively under the Paycheck Protection Program, which was established under the recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The SBA loans ~~have~~had a two-year term and ~~carry~~carried an annual fixed interest rate of 1%. ~~For additional information on~~The SBA Loans were forgiven in full by the SBA ~~Loans, see Note 8~~in the first quarter of ~~this Form 10-Q.~~fiscal year 2021.

Based on our current plans and business conditions, management believes that the Company’s available cash and cash equivalents, the cash received from the SBA loans, the cash generated from operations, and availability on our line of credit will be sufficient to provide for the Company’s working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least 12 months from the date of this report.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020. Our Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Financial Officer and other members of our senior management team supervised and participated in this evaluation. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the ~~SEC’s~~SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the ~~company’s~~company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were ~~effective.~~not effective, due to the fact that we are not yet able to conclude that the material weakness described in this Item 4 has been remediated by the changes we made in response to that material weakness.

~~Table~~As previously disclosed in Item 9A of ~~Contents~~our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended September 30, 2020, our management identified a material weakness as of such date. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be able to be prevented or detected in a timely basis. The identified material weakness is in connection with internal controls over the revenue recognition process, specifically the failure to properly identify whether the Company was to be considered the principal or the agent in certain transactions. We determined that controls over the revenue recognition process were not operating effectively and the resulting control gap amounted to a material weakness in our controls over financial reporting.

During the period following our initial identification of the material weakness referred to above, management assessed various alternatives to remediate this material weakness and we implemented changes to our system of internal controls, which included the implementation of enhanced internal auditing procedures, whereby revenue transactions are subjected to an additional review process at the corporate level to ensure the correct accounting methodology is applied to all revenue transactions. Although we have implemented such changes to our internal controls over financial reporting as described above, at this time, we cannot conclude that the material weakness has been remediated and we will continue to make changes and upgrade systems and processes throughout fiscal year 2021.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

During the ~~nine months~~year ended ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020, there ~~were no~~was a significant change in internal controls related to the material weakness discussed above. Internal controls around classifying whether the Company is considered the principal or the agent in transactions have been redesigned and implemented, which are intended to remediate the material weakness.

Prior to these changes, the Company’s primary procedure to find transactions that should be recorded “net” was reliance on a search of key words in ~~our internal~~the item description and stock-keeping unit. The primary control ~~over~~failure related to the key words identifying certain items where the Company was the principal, but the item was incorrectly recorded on a net basis. As a result, the primary identifier is not on the reliance of key words. Instead, the new enhanced procedures include review of every line item with additional levels of review from both sales and financial ~~reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.~~management.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk factors

~~Except as set forth below, there~~There have been no ~~other~~ material changes to the risk factors set forth in Item 1A under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, ~~2019 and the risk factor below included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31,~~ 2020.

~~Pandemics, epidemics or disease outbreaks, such as the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”), may materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.~~

Pandemics, epidemics, or disease outbreaks, such as COVID-19 may cause harm to us, our employees, our clients, our vendors and supply chain partners, and financial institutions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition. The impact of a pandemic, epidemic, or other disease outbreak, such as COVID-19, may include, but would not be limited to: (i) disruption to operations due to the unavailability of employees due to illness, quarantines, risk of illness, travel restrictions or factors that limit our existing or potential workforce; (ii) volatility in the demand for or availability of our products and services, (iii) inability to meet our customers’ needs due to disruptions in the manufacture, sourcing and distribution of our products and services, or (iv) failure of third parties on which we rely, including our suppliers, clients, and external business partners, to meet their obligations to us, or significant disruptions in their ability to do so. As a result of the World Health Organization characterizing the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic on March 11, 2020, national, state, and local governments have taken actions such as declaring a state of emergency, social distancing guidelines, and shutting down certain businesses which are not considered essential in part or entirely. The Company has complied with such actions causing most employees to work remotely in all locations. Such measures could have a material adverse effect on our business and future results.
