The accompanying notes are an integral part of these condensed consolidated statements.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial information of Track Group, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “Track Group”) has been prepared in accordance with the Instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim consolidated financial information contains all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and results of its operations for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto that are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2022, filed with the SEC on December 16, 2022. The results of operations for the ~~three~~nine months ~~ended~~ending ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, may not be indicative of the results for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2023.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of ~~$307,667,763~~$308,364,947 and $306,218,889, respectively. The Company had net loss of ~~($1,448,874)~~$2,146,058 and ~~net income of $146,919~~$3,458,140 for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. ~~The Company has $42,864,000 of debt maturing in~~ ~~July 2024.~~ On April 27, 2023, the Company announced a three ~~year~~-year extension of its $42.9 million debt to July 1, 2027 (See Note 19). The Company also has six notes payable maturing between January 2, 2024, and February 17, 2025, related to the construction of two monitoring centers ~~related to~~for a new contract, with outstanding balances due for the six notes totaling ~~$691,775,~~$547,603, net of deferred financing fees at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 (See Note 19). The Company’s ability to return to profitable operations is dependent upon generating a level of revenue adequate to support its cost structure, which it achieved on an operating basis in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, and was close to achieving in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, excluding the approximate $1.7 million asset impairment. Management has evaluated the significance of these conditions, as well as the recent change in the maturity date, and has determined that the Company can meet its operating obligations for a reasonable ~~period of time.~~period. The Company expects to fund operations using cash on hand and through operational cash flows through the upcoming twelve months.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Track Group, Inc. and its active subsidiaries, Track Group Analytics Limited, Track Group Americas, Inc., Track Group International LTD., and Track Group - Chile SpA. All inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standard setting bodies, which are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” (“ASU 2017-04”). ASU 2017-04 simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by removing the second step of the two-step impairment test. The amendment requires an entity to perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with ~~its~~the carrying amount. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. ASU 2017-04 became effective for accelerated filing companies for annual periods or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and all other entities should adopt the amendments in ASU 2017-04 for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The amendment should be applied on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company will adopt ASU 2017-04 in the fiscal year 2024. The Company ~~does~~ ~~not~~ ~~anticipate that~~has determined this adoption willnot have a significant impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-03”). ASU 2016-13 adds a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) impairment model to GAAP that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Modified retrospective adoption is required with any cumulative-effect adjustment recorded to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. ASU 2016-13 became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, excluding smaller reporting entities, which will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company will adopt ASU 2016-13 in fiscal year 2024. The Company does not expect the application of the CECL impairment model to have a significant impact on our allowance for uncollectible amounts for accounts receivable.

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the book value of an asset may not be recoverable and in the case of goodwill, at least annually. The Company evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred which indicate possible impairment as of each balance sheet date. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. Impairment of long-lived assets is assessed at the lowest levels for which there is an identifiable fair value that is independent of other groups of assets.

The Company accounts for its business acquisitions under the acquisition method of accounting as indicated in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, “Business Combinations” (“ASC 805”), which requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize the fair value of all assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and establishes the acquisition date as the fair value measurement point. Accordingly, the Company recognizes assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, including contingent assets and liabilities and non-controlling interest in the acquiree, based on fair value estimates as of the date of acquisition. In accordance with ASC 805, the Company recognizes and measures goodwill as of the acquisition date, as the excess of the fair value of the consideration paid over the fair value of the identified net assets acquired.

Pursuant to ASC 805-10-25, if the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs, but during the allowed measurement period not to exceed one year from the acquisition date, the Company retrospectively adjusts the provisional amounts recognized at the acquisition date, by means of adjusting the amount recognized for goodwill.

In certain acquisitions, the Company has agreed to pay additional amounts to the seller contingent upon the achievement by the acquired businesses of certain future goals, which may include revenue milestones, new customer accounts and earnings targets. The Company records contingent consideration based on its estimated fair value as of the date of the acquisition. The Company evaluates and adjusts the value of contingent consideration, if necessary, at each reporting period based on the progress toward and likely achievement of certain targets on which issuance of the contingent consideration is based. Any differences between the acquisition-date fair value and the changes in fair value of the contingent consideration subsequent to the acquisition date are recognized in the current period earnings until the arrangement is settled. If there is uncertainty surrounding the value of contingent consideration, then the Company’s policy is to wait until the end of the measurement period before making an adjustment.

Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income (loss) as currently reported under GAAP and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) considers the effects of additional economic events, such as foreign currency translation adjustments, ~~that~~which are not required to be recorded in determining net income (loss), but rather are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. The Chilean Peso, New Israeli Shekel and the Canadian Dollar are used as functional currencies of the following operating subsidiaries: (i) Track Group Chile SpA; (ii) Track Group International Ltd.; and (iii) Track Group Analytics Limited, respectively. The balance sheets of all subsidiaries have been converted into United States Dollars at the prevailing exchange rate at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023.

Basic net income (loss) per common share (“Basic EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted net income (loss) per common share (“Diluted EPS”) is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and the weighted-average dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume exercise or conversion of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect.

Common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”) (“options”) and warrants to purchase Common Stock (“warrants”). As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022, there were ~~103,911~~4,688 and ~~15,000~~327,674 of outstanding common share equivalents that were not included in the computation of Diluted EPS for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively, as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 all stock options and warrants had exercise prices that were above the market price of ~~$0.42,~~$0.28 and have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculations. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022~~394,373 stock~~no options and warrants had exercise prices that were below the market price of ~~$1.50,~~$0.70 and ~~were included~~have been excluded in the basic and diluted earnings per share calculations.

The common stock equivalents outstanding as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022 consisted of the following:

	March 31,		March 31,		June 30,		June 30,
	2023		2022		2023		2022
Issuable common stock options and warrants		103,911		409,373		4,688		327,674
Total common stock equivalents		103,911		409,373		4,688		327,674

Monitoring and Other Related ~~Services.~~Services. Monitoring services include two components: (i) lease contracts pursuant to which the Company provides monitoring services and lease devices to distributors or end users and the Company retains ownership of the leased device; and (ii) monitoring services purchased by distributors or end users who have previously purchased monitoring devices and opt to use the Company’s monitoring services. Sales of devices and leased GPS devices are required to use the Company’s monitoring service and both the GPS leased devices and monitoring services are accounted for as a single performance obligation. Monitoring revenue is recognized ratably over time, as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of these services as they are performed. Payment due or received from the customers prior to rendering the associated services are recorded as deferred revenue.

The balance of accounts receivables at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 of ~~$5,490,432~~$4,343,221 includes an unbilled balance of ~~$550,887~~$559,205 and the balance of accounts receivable at September 30, 2022 of $6,236,555 included an unbilled balance of $777,514. The balance of accounts receivable at September 30, 2021 of $7,163,615 included an unbilled balance of $420,697. The balances of the deferred revenue at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, September 30, 2022, and September 30, 2021 are ~~$1,292,~~$5,702, $3,299, and $22,500, respectively, and were included in accrued liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recognized ~~$718~~$3,927 and ~~$3,730,~~$7,656, respectively, of deferred revenue in the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and ~~$92,015~~recognized $10,512 and ~~$99,515,~~$110,027, respectively, of deferred revenue in the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022.

Product Sales and ~~Other.~~Other. The Company sells devices and replacement parts to customers under certain contracts, as well as law enforcement software licenses and maintenance, and analytical software. Revenue from the sale of devices and parts is recognized upon their transfer of control to the customer, which is generally upon delivery. Delivery is considered complete at either the time of shipment or arrival at destination, based on the agreed upon terms within the contract. Payment terms are generally 30 days from the invoice date.

Multiple Element ~~Arrangements.~~Arrangements. The majority of our revenue transactions do not have multiple elements. However, on occasion, the Company may enter ~~into~~ revenue transactions that have multiple elements. These may include different combinations of products or services that are included in a single billable rate. These products or services are delivered over time as the customer utilizes our services. In cases where obligations in a contract are distinct and thus require separation into multiple performance obligations, revenue recognition guidance requires that contract consideration be allocated to each distinct performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. The value allocated to each performance obligation is then recognized as revenue when the revenue recognition criteria for each distinct promise or bundle of promises has been met.

The standalone selling price for each performance obligation is an amount that depicts the amount of consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring the good or service. When there is only one performance obligation associated with a contract, the entire sale value is attributed to that obligation. When a contract contains multiple performance obligations the transaction value is first allocated using the observable price, which is generally a list price, net of applicable discount, or the price used to sell in similar circumstances. In circumstances when a selling price is not directly observable, the Company will estimate the standalone selling price using information available to us.

The following table presents the Company’s revenue by geography, based on management’s assessment of available data:

The above table includes total revenue for the Company, of which monitoring and other related services is the majority (approximately ~~98% and 96%~~97% for the ~~three~~ ~~and~~ ~~six~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, ~~respectively,~~ and approximately ~~93% and 96%~~97% for the ~~three~~ ~~and~~ ~~six~~nine months ended ~~March 31, 2022,~~June 30, 2022) ~~respectively)~~ of the Company’s revenue. Latin America includes the Bahamas, Chile, Puerto Rico, Panama and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and other includes Canada and Saudi Arabia.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the outstanding balance of prepaid expense and deposits was ~~$509,431~~$690,102 and $769,006, respectively. These balances are comprised largely of tax deposits, vendor deposits and other prepaid supplier expense.

Inventory is valued at the lower of the cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in/first-out method. Net realizable value is determined based on the ~~item~~item's selling price. Inventory is periodically reviewed in order to identify obsolete or damaged items or impaired values.

Inventory primarily consists of completed circuit boards and other parts used to manufacture new devices. Completed and shipped ReliAlert™ devices are reflected in Monitoring Equipment. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, inventory consisted of the following:

	March 31, 2023		September 30, 2022		June 30, 2023			September 30, 2022
Monitoring equipment component boards inventory	$	991,754	$	1,053,245	$	1,280,160		$	1,053,245

Total inventory, net of reserves	$	991,754	$	1,053,245	$	1,276,388		$	1,053,245

The Company uses a third-party fulfillment service provider. As a result of this service, the Company’s employees do not actively assemble new products or repair a significant amount of monitoring equipment shipped directly from suppliers. Purchases of monitoring equipment are recognized directly. Management believes this process reduces maintenance and fulfillment costs associated with inventory and monitoring equipment.

Property and equipment consisted of the following as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022:

The following table summarizes the activity of goodwill at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively:

Goodwill is recognized in connection with acquisition transactions in accordance with ASC 805. The Company performs an impairment test for goodwill annually or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist. No impairment of goodwill was recognized through ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the balance of other assets was ~~$3,056,248~~$2,849,055 and $3,509,655, respectively. Other assets at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 are comprised largely of cash used as collateral for Performance Bonds as well as contractually required monitoring center and other equipment, right of use assets, lease deposits and other long-term assets. The Company anticipates these performance bonds will be reimbursed to the Company upon completion of its contracts with the customer. See Note 23.

The Company was contractually obligated to construct and equip two monitoring centers for an international customer, as well as supply equipment for the customer’s satellite locations, which ~~are~~have been owned by the customer since construction was completed. The monitoring center equipment is amortized using the straight-line method over the contract period between 32 and 40 months. Monitoring center equipment as of June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, was as follows:

The Santiago and Puerto Montt monitoring centers amortization is recorded in Monitoring, products and other related service costs on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Amortization of costs related to the Santiago and Puerto Montt monitoring centers for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, were ~~$147,198~~$150,177 and ~~$280,502,~~$430,678, respectively. Amortization of costs related to the monitoring centers for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, were ~~approximately $148,244~~$138,887 and ~~$224,191,~~$363,077, respectively. The Company ~~will record~~recorded revenue from the customer based on a contractually agreed upon unit per day amount during the contract period. See Note 19 for details of the borrowings related to the monitoring centers construction and equipment.

The Company leases monitoring equipment and provides monitoring services to its customers with contract terms varying from month-to-month to several years and each daily contract price varies. Devices supplied to customers are not serial number unique and a single device may be used by multiple customers over its useful life. If a leased device is returned for repair, it will likely be replaced with a different device from a different customer or possibly a new device.

The Company’s tracking devices are considered operating leases under ASC 842 as transfer of control of the asset does not occur at the end of the lease, a single device is not specific to a customer and devices may be used by multiple customers throughout their life cycle. Due to the movement of devices from customer to customer, relatively few long-term contracts, the measurement of the equipment life and the present value of the equipment’s fair values would not be a measurement to qualify the devices as sales-type leases.

Operating lease and monitoring revenue associated with the Company’s monitoring equipment for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 are shown in the table below:

The Company cannot accurately estimate 5-years of future minimum lease receipts for its devices leased to customers because none of its customers make any contractual commitment regarding the number of active devices utilized in any given year and those quantities of active devices vary significantly for every customer each and every day.

~~As of~~ ~~March 31, 2023,~~ no ~~shares of Series A Preferred were issued and outstanding.~~

~~At the annual meeting of stockholders on~~ ~~April 13, 2022,~~ ~~our stockholders approved the~~ ~~2022~~ ~~Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “~~~~2022~~ ~~Plan”), previously approved by the Company’s Board.

The expected life of options (warrants) represents the period of time that the options or warrants are expected to be outstanding based on the simplified method allowed under GAAP. The expected volatility is based on the historical price volatilityconstruction of the Company’s Common Stock. The risk-free interest rate represents the U.S. Treasury bill rate for the expected life of the related options (warrants). The dividend yield represents the Company’s anticipated cash dividends over the expected life of the options (warrants).

~~A summary of stock option (warrant) activity for the~~ ~~six~~ ~~months ended~~ ~~March 31, 2023~~ ~~is presented below:~~

~~The intrinsic value of options and warrants outstanding and exercisable is based on the Company’s share price of $0.42 at~~ ~~March 31, 2023.~~

~~The Company recognizes deferred income tax assets or liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized~~Gendarmeria de Chile monitoring centers in the financial statements or income tax returns. Deferred income tax assets or liabilities are determined based upon the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to apply when the differences are expected to be settled or realized. Deferred income tax assets are reviewed periodically for recoverability and valuation allowances are provided as necessary. Interest and penalties related to income tax liabilities, when incurred, are classified in interest expense and income tax provision, respectively.

~~For the~~ ~~six~~ ~~months ended~~ ~~March 31, 2023~~ ~~and~~ ~~2022,~~ the Company incurred net (loss) income for income tax purposes of ($1,448,874) and $146,919, respectively. The amount and ultimate realization of the benefits from the net operating losses is dependent, in part, upon the tax laws in effect, our future earnings, and other future events, the effects of which cannot be determined. The Company has established a valuation allowance for all deferred income tax assets ~~not~~ ~~offset by deferred income tax liabilities due to the uncertainty of their realization. Accordingly, there is~~ no ~~benefit for income taxes in the accompanying statements of operations.~~

In computing income tax, we recognize an income tax provision in tax jurisdictions in which we have pre-tax income for the period and are expecting to generate pre-tax book income during the fiscal year.

~~The Company is, from time to time, involved in various legal proceedings incidental to the conduct of our business. Historically, the outcome of nearly all such legal proceedings has~~ ~~not~~, ~~in the aggregate, had a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Other than as set forth below, there are~~ no ~~additional pending or threatened legal proceedings at this time.~~

The Company is authorized to issue up to 30,000,000 shares of Common Stock and up to 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Preferred Stock”). The Company’s Board has the authority to amend the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, without further stockholder approval, to designate and determine, in whole or in part, the preferences, limitations and relative rights of the Preferred Stock before any issuance of the Preferred Stock, and to create one or more series of Preferred Stock.

Shares of Series A Preferred rank senior to the Company’s Common Stock, and all other classes and series of equity securities of the Company that by their terms do not rank senior to the Series A Preferred.

Except with respect to transactions upon which holders of the Series A Preferred are entitled to vote separately as a class under the terms of the Certificate of Designation, the Series A Preferred has no voting rights. The shares of Common Stock into which Series A Preferred is convertible shall, upon issuance, have all of the same voting rights as other issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock.

The Series A Preferred has no separate dividend rights; however, whenever the Board declares a dividend on the Company’s Common Stock, if ever, each holder of record of a share of Series A Preferred shall be entitled to receive an amount equal to such dividend declared on one share of Common Stock multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock into which such share of Series A Preferred could be converted on the Record Date.

At the annual meeting of stockholders on April 13, 2022, our stockholders approved the 2022 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2022 Plan”), previously approved by the Company’s Board.

A total of 500,000 shares were authorized for issuance pursuant to awards granted under the 2022 Plan.

The 2022 Plan supersedes and replaces the Company’s 2012 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2012 Plan”). As of June 30, 2020, the Board suspended further awards under the 2012 Plan. Any awards outstanding under the 2012 Plan will remain subject to the 2012 Plan. All shares of Common Stock remaining authorized and available for issuance under the 2012 Plan and any shares subject to outstanding awards under the 2012 Plan that subsequently expire, terminate, or are surrendered or forfeited for any reason without issuance of shares will automatically become available for issuance under our 2022 Plan.

During the nine months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company granted no options or warrants under the 2022 Plan or under the 2012 Plan. All options and warrants outstanding under the 2012 Plan have vested and are exercisable as of June 30, 2023.

The expected life of options (warrants) represents the period of time that the options or warrants are expected to be outstanding based on the simplified method allowed under GAAP. The expected volatility is based on the historical price volatility of the Company’s Common Stock. The risk-free interest rate represents the U.S. Treasury bill rate for the expected life of the related options (warrants). The dividend yield represents the Company’s anticipated cash dividends over the expected life of the options (warrants).

A summary of stock option (warrant) activity for the nine months ended June 30, 2023, is presented below:

The intrinsic value of options and warrants outstanding and exercisable is based on the Company’s share price of $0.28 at June 30, 2023.

The Company recognizes deferred income tax assets or liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the financial statements or income tax returns. Deferred income tax assets or liabilities are determined based upon the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to apply when the differences are expected to be settled or realized. Deferred income tax assets are reviewed periodically for recoverability and valuation allowances are provided as necessary. Interest and penalties related to income tax liabilities, when incurred, are classified in interest expense and income tax provision, respectively.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred net (loss) for income tax purposes, inclusive of book to tax differences, of $(2,146,058) and $(3,458,140), respectively. The amount and ultimate realization of the benefits from the net operating losses is dependent, in part, upon the tax laws in effect, our future earnings, and other future events, the effects of which cannot be determined. The Company has established a valuation allowance for all deferred income tax assets not offset by deferred income tax liabilities due to the uncertainty of their realization. Accordingly, there is no benefit for income taxes in the accompanying statements of operations.

The Company is, from time to time, involved in various legal proceedings incidental to the conduct of our business. Historically, the outcome of nearly all such legal proceedings has not, in the aggregate, had a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Other than as set forth below, there are no additional pending or threatened legal proceedings at this time.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”, or this “Report”) contains information that constitutes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Generally, the statements contained in this Report that are not purely historical can be ~~considered to be~~ “forward-looking statements”. These statements represent our expectations, hopes, beliefs, anticipations, commitments, intentions, and strategies regarding the future. They may be identified ~~by the use of~~using words or phrases such as “believes”, “expects”, “intends”, “anticipates”, “should”, “plans”, “estimates”, “projects”, “potential”, and “will” among others. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements contained in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations regarding our financial performance, revenue, and expense levels in the future and the sufficiency of our existing assets to fund future operations and capital spending needs. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and those described from time to time in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto that are contained in this Report, as well as ~~Management’s~~Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, and Current Reports on Form 8-K that have been filed with the SEC through the date of this Report. Except as otherwise indicated, as used in this Report, the terms the “Company”, “Track Group”, “we”, “our”, and “us” refer to Track Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation.

Our business is based on the leasing of patented tracking and monitoring solutions to federal, state and local law enforcement agencies, both in the U.S. and abroad, for the electronic monitoring of offenders and offering unique data analytics services on a platform-as-a-service (“PaaS”) business model. Currently, the Company deploys offender-based management services that combine patented GPS tracking technologies, full-time 24/7/365 global monitoring capabilities, case management, and proprietary data analytics. The Company offers customizable tracking solutions that leverage real-time tracking data, best-practices monitoring, and analytics capabilities to create complete, end-to-end tracking solutions.

Devices - Our devices consist principally of the ReliAlert® product line. These devices are generally leased on a daily rate basis and may be combined with our monitoring center services, proprietary software and data analytics subscription to provide an end-to-end PaaS.

ReliAlert®XC4 is our flagship GPS device, which is among the safest and most reliable monitoring devices ever made and was certified in 2020 by the Federal Communications Commission and PCS Type Certification Review Board. It is the only one-piece GPS device with patented 3-way voice communication to assist intervention efforts, now on the LTE network with increased battery life. This device includes on-board processing, secondary location technology, a 95db siren, embedded RF technology, anti-tampering capability, increased battery life and sleep mode.

ReliAlert®-XC 3 is our predecessor device which had advanced features to enable agencies to effectively track offender movements and communicate directly with offenders in real-time, through a patented, on-board two/three-way voice communication technology. This device includes an enhanced GPS antenna and GPS module for higher sensitivity GPS, enhanced voice audio quality, increased battery performance of 50+ hours, 3G cellular capabilities, improved tamper sensory, and durability enhancements.

Monitoring Center Services - Our monitoring centers provide live 24/7/365 monitoring of all alarms generated from our devices, as well as customer and technical support. Our monitoring center operators play a vital role, and as such, are staffed with highly trained, ~~bi-lingual~~bilingual individuals. These operators act as an extension of agency resources receiving alarms, communicating and intervening with offenders regarding violations and interacting with supervision staff, all pursuant to agency-established protocols. The facilities have redundant power ~~source,~~sources, battery backup and triple redundancy in voice, data and IP. We have assisted in the establishment of monitoring centers for customers and local partners in the United States, Chile and other global locations.

Data Analytics Services - Our IntelliTrack, TrackerPAL® software, IntelliTrack Mobile, TrackerPAL® Mobile, combined with our Data Analytic analysis tools, provide an integrated platform allowing case managers and law enforcement officers quick access views of an offender’s travel behavior, mapping, and inference on patterns. Our data analytics services help facilitate the discovery and communication of meaningful patterns in diverse locations and behavioral data that helps agencies reduce risks and improve decision making. Our analytics applications use various combinations of statistical analysis procedures, data and text mining and predictive modeling to proactively analyze information on community-released offenders to discover hidden relationships and patterns in their behaviors and to predict future outcomes.

Other Services - The Company offers smartphone applications specifically designed for the criminal justice market, including a domestic violence app that creates a mobile geo-zone around a survivor and an alcohol monitoring app linked to a police-grade breathalyzer.

We are committed to helping our customers improve offender rehabilitation and re-socialization outcomes through our innovative hardware, software and services. We treat our business as a service business. Although we still manufacture patented tracking technology, we see the physical goods as only a small part of the integrated offender monitoring solutions we provide. Accordingly, rather than receiving a payment just for a piece of manufactured equipment, the Company receives a recurring stream of revenue for ongoing device agnostic subscription contracts. As part of our strategy, we continue to expand our device-agnostic platform to not only collect, but also store, analyze, assess and correlate location data for both accountability and auditing reasons, as well as to use for predictive analytics and assessment of effective and emerging techniques in criminal behavior and rehabilitation. We believe a high-quality customer experience along with knowledgeable salespeople who can convey the value of our products and services greatly enhances our ability to attract and retain customers. Therefore, our strategy also includes building and expanding our own direct sales force and our third-party distribution network to effectively reach more customers and provide them with a world-class sales and post-sales support experience. In addition, we are developing ~~related-service~~related service offerings to address adjacent market opportunities in both the public and private sectors. We believe continual investment in research and development (“R&D”), including smartphone applications and other monitoring services is critical to the development and sale of innovative technologies and integrated solutions today and in the future.

From time to time, management reviews and evaluates certain accounting policies that are considered to be significant in determining ~~our~~the results of operations and financial position.

A description of the Company’s critical accounting policies that affect the preparation of the Company’s financial statements is set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2022, filed with the SEC on December 16, 2022. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, there have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies.

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expense. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. We assess the reasonableness of our estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories, right of use assets, estimated useful lives, intangible assets, warranty obligations, product liability, revenue, legal matters and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience as well as available current information on a regular basis. Management uses this information to form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Our operations are subject to various federal, state, local and international laws and regulations. We are not involved in any pending or, to our knowledge, threatened governmental proceedings, which would require curtailment of our operations because of such laws and regulations.

The COVID-19 pandemic adversely impacted both the Company’s revenue and costs in the past by disrupting its operations in Chile, causing shortages within the supply chain and postponing certain sales opportunities as some government agencies delayed new RFP (Request for Proposal) processes or decisions. Notwithstanding the challenges, the monitoring being performed by the Company’s significant customers across the globe and key business partners providing manufacturing and call center services have all remained operational. In addition, both our Chile office and the corporate headquarters in the greater-Chicago area have been open nearly ~~eighteen~~twenty-one months. However, the Company is operating in a rapidly changing environment and the extent to which COVID-19 impacts its business, operations and financial results going forward ~~will depend on numerous evolving factors that~~is something the Company cannot accurately predict. Those factors include: the duration and scope of the pandemic; governmental, business and individuals’ actions that have been and continue to be taken in response to the pandemic; the development of widespread testing or a vaccine; the ability of our supply chain to meet the Company’s need for equipment; the ability to sell and provide services and solutions if shelter in place restrictions and people working from home are extended to ensure employee safety; the volatility of foreign currency exchange rates and the subsequent effect on international transactions; and any closures of clients’ offices or the courts on which they rely.

Three Months Ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, Compared to Three Months Ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022

For the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, the Company recognized total revenue from operations of ~~$8,308,046~~$8,697,578 compared to ~~$9,484,119~~$8,974,082 for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, a decrease of ~~$1,176,073,~~$276,504, or approximately ~~12%~~3%. The decrease in monitoring revenues is driven principally by fluctuations in court proceedings where active devices are assigned to customers in Illinois ~~California, the Bahamas~~ and ~~Canada,~~California, partially offset by an increase in monitoring revenues for customers in ~~Nevada~~Indiana and ~~Panama.~~Louisiana.

Product sales and other revenue for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 ~~decreased~~increased to ~~$129,021~~$158,555 from ~~$641,633~~$137,460 in the same period in 2022, ~~a decrease~~an increase of ~~$512,612~~$21,095 or approximately ~~80%~~15%, primarily due to ~~purchases from a partner~~an increase in ~~Saudi Arabia in February 2022.~~the sale of consumable products.

The industry in which the Company operates, as well as many other industries (automotive, consumer products and medical devices), has been impacted by the global semiconductor shortage. The availability of semiconductor parts continued to improve in the first ~~half~~three quarters of fiscal 2023; however, long lead times remain with certain parts.

During the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, cost of revenue totaled ~~$4,565,241~~$5,033,722 compared to cost of revenue during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2022, of ~~$4,945,134, a decrease~~$5,009,869, an increase of ~~$379,893~~$23,853 or ~~approximately 8%~~less than 1%. The ~~decrease~~increase in cost of revenue was largely the result of ~~lower monitoring center~~higher device repair costs of ~~$133,427, lower communication costs~~$149,933, higher equipment provided to our customers of ~~$165,182, lower hardware purchases of $49,534, and lower product sales costs of $109,934, partially offset by higher depreciation and amortization costs of $50,799~~$25,896, and higher lost, stolen, and damaged costs of ~~$58,176.~~$138,865, partially offset by lower monitoring center costs of $67,163, lower communication costs of $171,967, lower commission costs of $41,444 and lower freight costs of $11,632.

Depreciation and amortization included in cost of revenue for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022 totaled ~~$843,714~~$821,915 and ~~$792,915,~~$809,235, respectively, an increase of ~~$50,799.~~$12,680. These costs represent the depreciation of ReliAlert® and other monitoring devices, as well as the amortization of monitoring software and certain royalty agreements. The increase in depreciation and amortization costs is largely due to an increase in device depreciation expense of ~~$86,881,~~$44,160, offset by a decrease in amortization of $31,480 for the discontinued product, Shadow, of $36,082. Devices are depreciated over either a three- or five-year useful life. Monitoring software is amortized over a seven-year life. Royalty agreements are being amortized over a ten-year useful life. The Company believes these lives are appropriate due to changes in electronic monitoring technology and the corresponding potential for obsolescence. Management periodically assesses the useful life of the devices for appropriateness.

The rise in inflation in fiscal 2022 and the first ~~half~~three quarters of fiscal 2023 has adversely impacted the Company’s cost of labor, materials and other operating ~~expenses.~~expense. We expect cost inflation to remain elevated throughout the rest of fiscal 2023 but anticipate continued supply chain productivity and pricing actions to mitigate some of the inflationary pressures.

The Company has not entered ~~into~~ any transactions with unconsolidated entities whereby the Company has financial guarantees, derivative instruments, or other contingent arrangements that expose the Company to material continuing risks, contingent liabilities, or any other obligation that provides financing, liquidity, market risk, or credit risk support to the Company.

The Company footprint extends to ~~a number of~~several countries outside the United States, and we intend to continue to examine international opportunities. As a result, our revenue and results of operations are affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, interest rates, transfer pricing changes, taxes and other uncertainties inherent in doing business in more than one currency. In addition, our operations are exposed to risks that are associated with changes in social, political and economic conditions in the foreign countries in which we operate, including changes in the laws and policies that govern foreign investment, as well as, to a lesser extent, changes in United States laws and regulations relating to foreign trade and investment.

We had ~~$3,085,549~~$4,767,831 and ~~$3,050,246~~$4,668,573 in foreign currency revenue from sources outside of the United States for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our foreign currency revenue is made up of sales in Chile. We made and received payments in a foreign currency during the periods indicated, which resulted in foreign exchange gain of ~~$554,943~~$972,953 and ~~$290,091~~loss of $(460,033) in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Fluctuations in the exchange loss or gain in any given period are due to the strengthening or weakening of the U.S. dollar against the Chilean Peso and Canadian dollar which have been magnified by global matters, inflation, and the government policies established to address those issues. Changes in currency exchange rates affect the relative prices at which we sell our products and purchase goods and services. Given the uncertainty of exchange rate fluctuations, we cannot estimate the effect of these fluctuations on our future business, product pricing, results of operations, or financial condition. We periodically enter into small, simple forward foreign currency exchange contracts or derivative financial instruments to mitigate the risk of repatriating funds converted from foreign currency into U.S. ~~dollars for hedging purposes.~~dollars. To the extent foreign sales become a more significant part of our business in the future, we may seek to implement additional strategies which make use of these or other instruments ~~in order~~ to minimize the effects of foreign currency exchange on our business and/or require some international customers to receive invoices and make payments in US dollars.

We have established disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) to ensure that material information relating to the Company is made known to the officers who certify our financial reports and to other members of senior management and the Board of Directors. These disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, was completed pursuant to Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023.

We maintain a system of internal control over financial reporting that is designed to provide reasonable assurance that our books and records accurately reflect our transactions and that our established policies and procedures are followed. There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our quarter ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2023, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The Company is, from time to time, involved in various legal proceedings incidental to the conduct of our business. Historically, the outcome of nearly all such legal proceedings has not,, in the aggregate, had a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Other than as set forth below, there are no additional pending or threatened legal proceedings at this time.
