EXPLANATORY NOTE


As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by CFN Enterprises Inc. (the "Company") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on May 18, 2020, the filing of the Company's Quarterly Report on 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2020 was delayed as a result of disruptions caused by the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19").  To delay the filing of the Form 10-Q, the Company has relied on the Order of the SEC, dated March 25, 2020, pursuant to Section 36 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 modifying exemptions from the reporting and proxy delivery requirements for public companies (Release No. 34-88465).

Mandatory closures of businesses imposed by the federal, state and local governments to control the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the operations of the Company’s management, business and finance teams.  This has, in turn, impacted the Company’s ability to complete and file this Quarterly Report with the SEC by its original due date of May 15, 2020.

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations for the next 12 months as of the date these financial statements are issued.  

 

The Company had a working capital deficit of $4,557,359$569,430 and an accumulated deficit of $43,973,761$35,099,480 as of March 31, 2019.2020.  The Company also had a net loss from continuing operations of $1,013,637 and cash provided by operating activities of $374,140$318,331 during the three months ended March 31, 2019.2020.

 

Management’s plan to continue as a going concern includes raising capital in the form of debt or equity, increased gross profit from revenue growthgrowing its existing business acquired under the Emerging Growth Agreement and managing and reducing operating and overhead costs. During the second quarter of 2018,On May 6, 2020, the Company engagedreceived $263,000 in the form of a nationally recognized investment bank to assist managementloan from the PPP, as well $150,000 in pursuing strategic transactions including acquisitions, dispositions, capital raising and debt restructuring. On May 15, 2019,proceeds from a loan with the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement to sell substantially all of the Company’s assets. This agreement is subject to stockholder approvalSBA on June 24, 2020 (see Note 10, Subsequent Events)9).  However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing its plans. Management also cannot provide any assurance that unforeseen circumstances that could occur at any time within the next twelve months or thereafter will not increase the need for the Company to raise additional capital on an immediate basis.

 

These matters, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 reporting amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results will differ from those estimates. Included in these estimates are assumptions about collection of accounts receivable, useful life of fixed assets and intangible assets, borrowing rate considered for operating lease right-of-use asset and related operating lease liability, and assumptions used in Black-Scholes-Merton, or BSM,Black-Scholes valuation methods, such as expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividend rate.

 


Financial Statement Reclassification

Certain account balances from prior periods have been reclassified in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements to conform to current period classifications. The prior year amounts have also been reclassified in these financial statements to properly report amounts under current operations and discontinued operations (see note 7).

Collateral is currently not required. The Company also maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of the Company’s customers to make payments. The Company periodically reviews these estimated allowances, including an analysis of the customers’ payment history and creditworthiness, the age of the trade receivable balances and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to make payments as well as historical collection trends for its customers as a whole. Based on this review, the Company specifically reserves for those accounts deemed uncollectible or likely to become uncollectible. When receivables are determined to be uncollectible, principal amounts of such receivables outstanding are deducted from the allowance. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 amounted to $183,750 and $163,750, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, 606, the core principle of which is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, five basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

 

The Company accounts for revenues when both parties to the contract have approved the contract, the rights and obligations of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, and collectability of consideration is probable. Payment terms vary by client and the services offered.

 

The Company’s SaaS revenues arerevenue is generated from implementationthe sale of promotional service packages to its customers ranging from 3 to 6 months. The Company offers different packages tailored to the type and training fees and a monthly license fee, supplemented by per transaction fees paid by customers for monthly platform usage. The initial termstage of the potential customer, contract is generally one year with one of two general cancellation policies. Each party may cancel the contract within the initial period or after the initial period, with 30-days’ prior notice. The Company does not provide any general right of return for its delivered items. Services associated with the implementation and training fees have standalone valuesuch as public companies looking to the Company’s customers, as there are third-party vendors who offer similar services to the Company’s services. Accordingly, they qualify as separate units of accounting. The Company allocates a fair value to each element deliverable at the recognition date and recognizes such value when the services are provided. The Company bases the fair value of the implementation and training fees on third-party evidence and the monthly license fee on vendor-specific objective evidence. Fees charged by third-party vendors for implementation and training services do not vary significantly from the fees charged by the Company. Services associated with implementation and training fees are generally rendered within a month from the initial contract date. The value attributed to the monthly license feesincrease their shareholder base, as well as private companies potentially looking to go public and attract capital and publicity. The services provided by the feesCompany include advertising, publishing of interviews and articles across its network and featuring of client content on its newsletters and social media. The packages all have fixed prices that are billed monthly over the terms of the agreement in even amounts. The Company recognizes revenue for its performance obligation associated with monthly transaction-based platform usageits contracts with customers over time as work is performed, which is deemed to occur evenly throughout the duration of the contract. This also reflects the pattern in which costs are incurred on performing the contracts. To the extent revenue recognized inon contracts at each period end exceeds collections, the corresponding period.


Product Concentration

The Company generates its revenues from software licensing, usage, and related transaction fees.amounts are reflected as accounts receivable. To the extent collections on contracts at each period end exceeds revenue recognized, the amounts are reflected as deferred revenue.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company accounts for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, or ASC 820. ASC 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing generally accepted accounting principles that require the use of fair value measurements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements.

 

ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized below:

 

Level 1:

Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

  

Level 2:

Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

  

Level 3:

Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

 

Additional Disclosures Regarding Fair Value Measurements

 

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and lines of credit approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of these items.

 

Advertising

 

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses relating to continuing operations amounted to $47,966 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Advertising expenses reported as a component of discontinued operations amounted to $0 and $98,967 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized, but no less than quarterly.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The Company’s reporting currency is U.S. Dollars. The functional currency of the Company’s Subsidiary in the United Kingdom iswas British Pounds. The translation from British Pounds to U.S. dollars is performed for asset and liability accounts using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, equity accounts using historical exchange rates or rates in effect at the balance sheet date, and for revenue and expense accounts using the average exchange rate in effect during the period. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Foreign currency translation gains and losses arising from exchange rate fluctuation on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the consolidated statements of operations.

 


Software Development CostsProperty and Equipment

 

At December 31, 2018,Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of five years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Significant renewals and betterments are capitalized. 

Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with ASC 360-10, the Company impairedevaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. When such factors and circumstances exist, the entire balance of unamortized internal-use software development costs which amounted to approximately $4,725,000 and did not capitalize internal-use software development costs in 2019. Costs incurred inCompany compares the research and development of software products and significant upgrades and enhancements thereto during the preliminary project stage and the post-implementation operation stage are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred for maintenance and relatively minor upgrades and enhancements are expensed as incurred. Prior to the December 31, 2018 impairment, costsprojected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the application development stagerelated asset or group of new software productsassets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value, based on market value when available, or discounted expected cash flows, of those assets and significant upgrades and enhancements thereto were capitalized when 1) management implicitly or explicitly authorized and committed to funding a software project and 2) itis recorded in the period in which the determination is made. There was probable that the project would be completed and the software would be used to perform the function intended. The Company capitalized internal-use software development costsno impairment of $375,000long-lived assets identified during the three-month periodthree months ended March 31, 2018. The Company amortized such costs once2020 or 2019.

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing income available to stockholders by the new software productsweighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common and significant upgradesdilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Dilutive common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and enhancements were completed. The unamortized internal-use software development costs amounted to approximately $4,196,000 atwarrants (calculated using the modified-treasury stock method). As of March 31, 2018. The Company’s amortization expenses associated with capitalized software development costs amounted to approximately $105,000 during2020, the three-month period endedCompany had 3,160,000 outstanding stock options and 7,543,944 outstanding warrants which were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their effects were anti-dilutive. As of March 31, 20182019, the Company had 7,130,000 outstanding stock options and was reflected in cost25,545,517 outstanding warrants which were excluded from the calculation of revenues. Therediluted earnings per share because their effects were no expenses associated with capitalized software development costs duringanti-dilutive. As a result, the three-month period ended March 31, 2019.basic and diluted earnings per share are the same for each of the periods presented.

 

Share-Based Payment

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, or ASC 718. Under the fair value recognition provisions of this topic, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period.

 

11

The Company has elected to use the BSMBlack-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of its options, which incorporates various subjective assumptions including volatility, risk-free interest rate, expected life, and dividend yield to calculate the fair value of stock option awards. Compensation expense recognized in the statements of operations is based on awards ultimately expected to vest and reflects estimated forfeitures. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, to expand the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees and supersedes the guidance in Subtopic 505-50, Equity - Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. Under ASU 2018-07, equity-classified nonemployee share-based payment awards are measured at the grant date fair value on the grant date. The probability of satisfying performance conditions must be considered for equity-classified nonemployee share-based payment awards with such conditions. This update to this standard has no impact in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Common stock awards

The Company has granted common stock awards to non-employees in exchange for services provided. The Company measures the fair value of these awards using the fair value of the services provided or the fair value of the awards granted, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value measurement date of these awards is generally the date the performance of services is complete. The fair value of the awards is recognized on a straight-line basis as services are rendered. The share-based payments related to common stock awards for the settlement of services provided by non-employees is recorded on the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss in the same manner and charged to the same account as if such settlements had been made in cash.

Warrants

 

In connection with certain financing, consulting and collaboration arrangements, the Company has issued warrants to purchase shares of its common stock. The outstanding warrants are standalone instruments that are not puttable or mandatorily redeemable by the holder and are classified as equity awards. The Company measures the fair value of the awards using the Black-Scholes option pricing model as of the measurement date. Warrants issued in conjunction with the issuance of common stock are initially recorded at fair value as a reduction in additional paid-in capital of the common stock issued. All other warrants are recorded at fair value as expense over the requisite service period or at the date of issuance, if there is not a service period.

Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Dilutive common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants (calculated using the modified-treasury stock method).

On March 11, 2016, the Company entered into a subordinated loan, or the Agility Loan with Agility Capital II, LLC, or Agility, which provided for total availability of $625,000 and was to originally mature, prior to amendment, on March 31, 2017. The Agility Loan had a fixed interest rate of 12% per year and required $25,000 monthly amortization payments beginning on June 1, 2016. The Agility Loan also required fees of approximately $130,000 over the life of the loan and is subject to a total aggregate minimum interest of $50,000 in the event of a prepayment. The Agility Loan contained covenants to achieve specified Adjusted EBITDA levels, as defined, limiting capital expenditures, restricting our ability to pay dividends, purchase and sell assets outside the ordinary course and incur additional indebtedness. At the time of repayment of the Agility Loan, in January 2018, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.


In connection with the Agility Loan, on June 30, 2016, as a result of outstanding amounts under the Agility Loan, the Company issued to Agility Capital a warrant to purchase up to 69,444 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.45 per share. This warrant expires on March 11, 2021. The fair value of the warrant amounted to $15,880 and was capitalized as deferred financing costs, the entirety of which was expensed prior to 2018.ACQUISITONS

 

On November 29, 2016, the Company entered into an amendment of the Agility Loan which waived any event of default and the breach of any covenant, representation, warranty, and any other agreement contained in the Agility Loan as a result of the entering into of the Settlement Agreement. On the date of the amendment, a loan modification fee in the amount of $100,000, fully earned and non-refundable, was added to the outstanding loan balance and shall accrue interest, expensed in the statement of operations. Additionally, the maturity date was extended to December 31, 2017. On November 29, 2016, the Company issued to Agility Capital a warrant to purchase up to 187,500 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.40 per share. This warrant expires on November 29, 2021. The fair value of the warrant amounted to $42,427 and was capitalized as deferred financing costs, the entirety of which was expensed prior to 2018.

On August 14, 2017, the Company entered into a consent to waiver of the Agility Loan, to permit the issuance of promissory notes to lenders, as further described below.

On November 8, 2017,May 15, 2019, the Company entered into the third amendmentEmerging Growth Agreement with Emerging Growth, LLC (see Note 1), which closed on June 20, 2019. Pursuant to the terms of the Agility Loan whereby Agility Capital agreed to loan an additional $300,000 toEmerging Growth Agreement, the Company such that the aggregate principal amount owing to Agility Capital as of November 9, 2017 was $625,000. The Third Amendment extended the maturity date of the Agility Loan from December 31, 2017 to December 31, 2018. A loan modification fee of $125,000 was deductedacquired certain assets from the Additional Loan amount. This arrangement was treated asSeller related to its sponsored content and marketing business for a substantial modificationpurchase price consideration consisting of existing debt pursuant to the guidance of ASC 470-50 “Debt – Modifications and Extinguishments” (“ASC 470-50”). Because the net present value of the modified notes was greater than 10% of the present value of the remaining$420,000 in cash, flows under the old debt, the transaction was treated as a debt extinguishment and reissuance of a new debt instrument, with the fair value of $606,034 and therefore recorded $106,034 as a loss on debt extinguishment.  The carrying value of the $625,000 did not change as a result of the extinguishment since the discounts recognized at inception of these new notes were fully amortized at the time of the issuance. 

On January 26, 2018, the Company repaid the Agility Loan by paying Agility Capital approximately $581,000 which terminated the loan agreement between the Company and Agility Capital and released Agility Capital’s security interest in Company assets. The Company owed $0 under the Agility Loan at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

The decrease in total revenuesloss from discontinued operations during the three-month periodthree months ended March 31, 2019 when compared torepresents the same period in 2018, is mainly due to a 58% decrease in overage fees from our existing customers resultingprior year results from the termination of some customers combined with reductions in transaction volume for several other customers.

Cost of revenues

 $1,829,373  $2,353,860   -22.3%

Cost of revenues consists primarily of web hosting and personnel costs associated with supporting customer on-boarding and training activities, consisting of salaries, benefits, and related infrastructure costs. Web hosting fees are partially correlated to our revenues, depending on each specific agreement we have with our clients. The majority of our clients’ services are hosted on non-dedicated servers, on which capacity can be maximized by server, while certain customers prefer to have their services hosted on dedicated servers, on which capacity can only be maximized by customer and by server. Additionally, our resources associated with on-boarding are usually allocated at the beginning of the relationship with the new customer (usually, the first two months). Accordingly, our personnel costs associated with supporting customer on-boarding activities are not necessarily correlated with our revenues.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2019, when compared to the same period in 2018, cost of revenues decreased mainly as a result of lower web hosting fees incurred to support our operations of approximately $175,000, and lower compensation and client concessions expense of approximately $90,000 and $145,000, respectively.

We believe that our cost of revenues will remain approximately constant during the remainder of 2019.2020.

Our research and development expenses decreased during the three-month period ended March 31, 2019, when compared to the same period in 2018 mainly due to lower compensation expenses offset by capitalized software expenses of approximately $320,000.

We believe that our research and development expenses will increase gradually during the remainder of 2019 as we continue to enhance the features of our SaaS platform.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We hadOn May 15, 2019, we entered into the Asset Purchase Agreement to sell substantially all of our assets related to the CAKE Business. Concurrent with this agreement, we also entered into the Emerging Growth Agreement where we acquired certain assets from Emerging Growth, LLC related to its sponsored content and marketing business for purchase price consideration consisting in part of $420,000 in cash. In September 2019, we received proceeds of $500,000 from a working capital deficit of $4,557,359 and an accumulated deficit of $43,973,761 as of March 31, 2019.  We also had a net loss of $1,013,637 and cash provided by operating activities of $374,140.

note payable. Our plan to continue as a going concern includes raising additional capital in the form of debt or equity, increased gross profit from revenue growthgrowing the business acquired under the Emerging Growth Agreement and managing and reducing operating and overhead costs. During the second quarter of 2018, we engaged a nationally recognized investment bank to assist us in pursuing strategic transactions including acquisitions, dispositions, capital raising and debt restructuring. On May 15, 2019, we entered into an asset purchase agreement to sell substantially all of our assets. This agreement is subject to stockholder approval (see Note 10, Subsequent Events). However, we cannot provide any assurances that we will be successful in accomplishing our plans. We also cannot provide any assurance that unforeseen circumstances that could occur at any time within the next twelve months or thereafter will not increase the need for us to raise additional capital on an immediate basis.

 

These matters, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

At March 31, 2019 and 2018, 61% and 43%, respectively, of our total assets consisted of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.

We extend unsecured credit in the normal course of business to our customers. The determination of the appropriate amount of the reserve for uncollectible accounts is based upon a review of the amount of credit extended, the length of time each receivable has been outstanding, and the specific customers from whom the receivables are due.

The objective of liquidity management is to ensure that we have ready access to sufficient funds to meet commitments while implementing our growth strategy. Our primary sources of liquidity historically include the sale of our securities and borrowings from our loans and credit facilities.


We do not have any material commitments for capital expenditures of tangible items.

Agility Loan

On March 11, 2016, we entered into the Agility Loan with Agility Capital which provided for total availability of $625,000 and was to originally mature, prior to amendment, on March 31, 2017. The Agility Loan had a fixed interest rate of 12% per year and required $25,000 monthly amortization payments beginning on June 1, 2016. The Agility Loan also required fees of approximately $130,000 over the life of the loan and was subject to a total aggregate minimum interest of $50,000 in the event of a prepayment. The Agility Loan contained covenants to achieve specified Adjusted EBITDA levels, as defined, limiting capital expenditures, restricting our ability to pay dividends, purchase and sell assets outside the ordinary course and incur additional indebtedness. At the time of repayment of the Agility Loan, in January 2018, we were in compliance with these covenants.

In connection with the Agility Loan, on June 30, 2016, as a result of outstanding amounts under the Agility Loan, we issued to Agility Capital a warrant to purchase up to 69,444 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.45 per share. This warrant expires on March 11, 2021. The fair value of the warrant amounted to $15,880 and was capitalized as deferred financing costs, the entirety of which was expensed prior to 2018.

On November 29, 2016, we entered into an amendment of our Agility Loan which waived any event of default and the breach of any covenant, representation, warranty, and any other agreement contained in the Agility Loan as a result of our entering into the Settlement Agreement. On the date of the amendment, a loan modification fee in the amount of $100,000, fully earned and non-refundable, was added to the outstanding loan balance and shall accrue interest, expensed in the statement of operations. Additionally, the maturity date was extended to December 31, 2017. On November 29, 2016, we issued to Agility Capital a warrant to purchase up to 187,500 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.40 per share. This warrant expires on November 29, 2021. The fair value of the warrant amounted to $42,427 and was capitalized as deferred financing costs, the entirety of which was expensed prior to 2018.

On August 14, 2017, we entered into a consent to waiver of the Agility Loan, to permit the issuance of the 2017 Promissory Notes.

On November 8, 2017, we entered into the third amendment of the Agility Loan whereby Agility Capital agreed to loan an additional $300,000 to us, such that the aggregate principal amount owing to Agility Capital as of November 9, 2017 was $625,000. The Third Amendment extended the maturity date of the Agility Loan from December 31, 2017 to December 31, 2018. A loan modification fee of $125,000 was deducted from the Additional Loan amount. This arrangement was treated as a substantial modification of existing debt pursuant to the guidance of ASC 470-50 “Debt – Modifications and Extinguishments” (“ASC 470-50”). Because the net present value of the modified notes was greater than 10% of the present value of the remaining cash flows under the old debt, the transaction was treated as a debt extinguishment and reissuance of a new debt instrument, with the fair value of $606,034 and therefore recorded $106,034 as a loss on debt extinguishment.  The carrying value of the $625,000 did not change as a result of the extinguishment since the discounts recognized at inception of these new notes were fully amortized at the time of the issuance. 

On January 26, 2018, we repaid the Agility Loan by paying Agility Capital approximately $581,000 which terminated the loan agreement between us and Agility Capital and released Agility Capital’s security interest in our assets. We owed $0 under the Agility Loan at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Credit Facility - SaaS Capital Loan

On May 5, 2016, we entered into the SaaS Capital Loan, with SaaS Capital to borrow up to a maximum of $8,000,000. Initial amounts borrowed will accrue interest at the rate of 10.25% per annum with future amounts borrowed bearing interest at the greater of 10.25% or 9.21% plus the three-year treasury rate at the time of advance. Accrued interest on amounts borrowed is payable monthly for the first six months and thereafter 36 equal monthly payments of principal and interest is payable. Prepayments will be subject to a 10%, 6% or 3% of principal premium if prepaid prior to 12 months, between 12 and 24 months, or between 24 months and maturity, respectively.

A facility fee of $80,000 was paid by us in connection with the initial advance and an additional $80,000 is payable on May 5, 2017. Additionally, we incurred initial financing costs of $160,000 which was capitalized as deferred financing costs, of which $13,333 was expensed at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

The SaaS Capital Loan contains customary covenants including, but not limited to, covenants to achieve specified Adjusted EBITDA levels and revenue renewal levels, limiting capital expenditures and restricting our ability to pay dividends, purchase and sell assets outside the ordinary course and incur additional indebtedness. As of March 31, 2019,2020, we were in compliance with such covenants, except for the minimum liquidity and secured debt covenants, defaults relating to which have been waived by SaaS Capital. The occurrencehad unrestricted cash of a material adverse change will be an event of default under the SaaS Capital Loan, in addition to other customary events of default.

As additional security, the Subsidiary issued an unlimited guarantee to Beedie. Beedie is entitled to board of director observation rights during the term of the Beedie Credit Agreement. 

In connection with the Beedie Credit Agreement, we issued the Beedie Warrant to purchase up to 4,500,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.35 per share subject to certain adjustments for dividends, splits or reclassifications, and a weighted average adjustment for certain issuances of common stock below the exercise price prior to January 26, 2019. Up to 2,500,000 additional shares of common stock under the Beedie Warrant will be exercisable on a pro rata basis to additional amounts borrowed if and when advanced under the Beedie Credit Agreement. We adopted ASU 2017-11 which revises ASC 815-10-15-74 to allow instruments with a down round features to qualify for equity classification. Under the new guidance, the issuer would recognize the value of the feature only when it is activated and there is an actual reduction of the strike price or conversion feature.  The value of the adjustment is then to be recorded as deemed dividend and a reduction of income available to common stockholders. The fair value of the warrant amounted to $1,099,861 and was capitalized as deferred financing costs, of which $91,655 and $61,103 was expensed during the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Because the net present value of the modified notes was lesser than 10% of the present value of the remaining cash flows under the old debt, the transaction was treated as a debt modification.

In March 2020, the outbreak of COVID-19 caused by a novel strain of the coronavirus was recognized as a pandemic by the World Health Organization, and the outbreak has become increasingly widespread in the United States, including each of the areas in which we operate. While to date we have not been required to stop operating, COVID-19 has had and is expected to continue to have an adverse effect on the financial condition of us and our customers.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

During 2019, in order to remediate the quarter ended March 31,segregation of duties and other deficiencies initially created by the departure of our accounting department in June 2019, there were no changes inwe hired accounting consultants to perform our account reconciliations and other day-to-day accounting requirements. The internal control structure was also documented and assessed in the areas of financial reporting and disclosure controls as it relates to our continuing operations. In addition, we revised and improved the use of our systems for getting appropriate approvals for purchases and other activities that require authorization. However, our ability to file timely reports is heavily dependent on having the necessary financial resources to pay consultants and other service providers involved with performing key elements of our disclosure and financial reporting controls.  Our current financial condition, brought on in-part by COVID-19, has temporarily hindered our ability to file timely reports for this reason.  As a result, we have assessed our disclosure controls and controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.as not effective.
