Going Concern Evaluation

 

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, the Company has an accumulated deficit approximating $178202.9 million and has experienced significant losses from its operations. Although the Company is showing positive revenue trends, the Company expects to incur further losses through the fourth quarter of 2022. To date, the Company has been funding operations primarily through the sales of its products, sale of equity in private placements and securities purchased by a financial institution. There can be no assurances that we will be successful in increasing revenues, improving operational efficiencies or that financing will be available or, if available, that such financing will be available under favorable terms.

The Company has a current cash balance of approximately $3.46.4 million as of the filing date. The Company reviewed its forecasted operating results and sources and uses of cash used in management’s assessment, which included the available financing and consideration of positive and negative evidence impacting management’s forecasts, market, and industry factors. The Company’s continuance as a going concern is highly dependent on its future profitability and on the on-going support of its stockholders, affiliates, and creditors. Based on these circumstances, management has determined that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

In order to mitigate the going concern issues, theThe Company has begun to implement strategies to strengthen revenues and improve operational efficiencies across the business and is significantly curtailing expenses. expenses, however, these strategies do not mitigate the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Additionally, on June 8, 2021, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act, which was declared effective on June 22, 2021 (the “2021 Shelf”). Under the 2021 Shelf at the time of effectiveness, the Company originally had the ability to raise up to $150 million by selling common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, and units. In conjunction with the 2021 Shelf, the Company also entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “ATM Sales Agreement”) with B. Riley Securities, Inc. and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. relating to the sale of its common stock. In accordance with the terms of the ATM Sales Agreement, the Company may, but is not obligated to, offer and sell, from time to time, shares of common stock, through or to the Agents, acting as agent or principal.

In June 2023, the Company’s public float increased above $75.0 million. As a result, the Company is no longer subject to the baby shelf limitations.

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete audited financial statements. The accompanying unaudited financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021,2022, included in our 20212022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. The information furnished in this report reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for each period presented. The results of operations for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 20222023 or for any future period.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The Company evaluates the need to consolidate affiliates based on standards set forth in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation.

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its wholly owned subsidiary, LifeMD PR, Cleared, its majority owned subsidiary, WorkSimpli, and LifeMD PC, the Company’s affiliated, variable interest entity in which we hold a controlling financial interest. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company purchased an additional 34.6% of WorkSimpli for a total equity interest of approximately 85.685.58% as of December 31, 2021 (See Note 7).2021. Effective September 30, 2022, two option agreements were exercised which further restructured the ownership of WorkSimpli. As a result, the Company’s ownership interest in WorkSimpli decreased to 73.64%. Effective March 31, 2023, the Company redeemed 500 membership interest units in WorkSimpli and, as a result, the Company’s ownership interest in WorkSimpli increased to 74.06%. Effective June 30, 2023, an option agreement was exercised which further restructured the ownership of WorkSimpli. As a result, the Company’s ownership interest in WorkSimpli decreased to 73.32%. See Note 78 for additional information.

 

All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, there were no cash equivalents. The Company maintains deposits in financial institutions in excess of amounts guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained at financial institutions, and at times, balances may exceed federally insured limits. These balances could be impacted if one or more of the financial institutions in which we deposit monies fails or is subject to other adverse conditions in the financial or credit markets. We have notnever experienced any losses related to these balances.

 

Variable Interest Entities

 

In accordance with ASC 810, Consolidation, the Company determines whether any legal entity in which the Company becomes involved is a variable interest entity (a “VIE”) and subject to consolidation. This determination is based on whether an entity has sufficient equity at risk to finance their activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties or whose equity investors lack any of the characteristics of a controlling financial interest and whether the interest will absorb portions of a VIE’s expected losses or receive portions of its expected residual returns and are contractual, ownership, or pecuniary in nature and that change with changes in the fair value of the entity’s net assets. A reporting entity is the primary beneficiary of a VIE and must consolidate it when that party has a variable interest, or combination of variable interests, that provides it with a controlling financial interest. A party is deemed to have a controlling financial interest if it hasmeets both of the power and losses/benefits criteria. The power criterion is the ability to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance and hasperformance. The losses/benefits criterion is the obligation to absorb losses from, or right to receive benefits from, the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

The Company determined that the LifeMD PC entity, the Company’s affiliated network of medical Professional Corporations and medical Professional Associations administratively led by LifeMD Southern Patient Medical Care, P.C., is a VIE and subject to consolidation. LifeMD PC and the Company do not have any stockholders in common. LifeMD PC is owned by licensed physicians, and the Company maintains a managed service agreement with LifeMD PC whereby we provide all non-clinical services to LifeMD PC. The Company determined that it is the primary beneficiary of LifeMD PC and must consolidate, as we have both the power to direct the activities of LifeMD PC that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entity and we have the obligation to absorb the losses. As a result, the Company presents the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of LifeMD PC as part of the consolidated financial statements of the Company. There is no non-controlling interest upon consolidation of LifeMD PC.

 

Total revenue for LifeMD PC was approximately $436 thousand and $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $794 thousand and $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Total net loss for LifeMD PC was approximately $124600 thousand and $1.01.4 million for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $1241.6 thousandmillion and $3.92.9 million for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The Company prepares its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Some of the more significant estimates required to be made by management include the determination of reserves for accounts receivable, returns and allowances, the valuation of inventory and stockholders’ equity-based transactions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the prior year’s data to the current presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported operating loss, stockholders’ deficit or cash flows. Given the increase in the Company’s software business and to conform the Company’s presentation of operating results to industry standards, theThe Company has changed their categories for reporting operations and, as a result, the Company has made reclassifications to the prior year presentation in order to conform it to the current periods’ presentation. The reclassifications include ($$3,02691) thousand and $126,437181 thousand of development services costslease expenses reclassified from general and administrative expenses to other operating expenses to development costs, for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2021,2022, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company records revenue under the adoption of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, by analyzing exchanges with its customers using a five-step analysis:

 

1.Identify the contract
2.Identify performance obligations
3.Determine the transaction price
4.Allocate the transaction price
5.Recognize revenue

 

For the Company’s product-based contracts with customers, the Company has determined that there is one performance obligation, which is the delivery of the product; this performance obligation is transferred at a discrete point in time. The Company generally records sales of finished products once the customer places and pays for the order, with the product being simultaneously shipped by a third-party fulfillment service provider; in limitedprovider. In some cases, the customer does not obtain control until the product reaches the customer’s delivery site; in these limited cases, recognition of revenue should beis deferred until that time, however, the Company does not have a process to properly record the recognition of revenue if orders are not immediately shipped, and deems the impact to be immaterial.time. In all cases, delivery is considered to have occurred when the customer obtains control, which is usually commensurate upon shipment of the product. In the case where delivery is not commensurate upon shipment of the product, recognition of revenue is deferred until that time. In the case of its product-based contracts, the Company provides a subscription sensitive service based on the recurring shipment of products. The Company records the related revenue under the subscription agreements subsequent to receiving the monthly product order, recording the revenue at the time it fulfills the shipment obligation to the customer.

 

For its product-based contracts with customers, the Company records an estimate for provisions of discounts, returns, allowances, customer rebates, and other adjustments for its product shipments; this estimate isshipments and are reflected as contra revenues in arriving at reported net revenues. The Company’s discounts and customer rebates are known at the time of sale; correspondingly, the Company reduces gross product sales for such discounts and customer rebates. The Company estimates customer returns and allowances based on information derived from historical transaction detail and accounts for such provisions, as contra revenue, during the same period in which the related revenues are earned. The Company has determined that the population of its product-based contracts with customers are homogenous, supporting the ability to record estimates for returns and allowances to be applied to the entire product-based portfolio population. Customer discounts, returns and rebates on telehealth revenues approximated $1.1497 thousand and $1.6 million, and $871 thousand forrespectively, during the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 2021,2022, respectively. Customer discounts, returns and rebates on telehealth revenues approximated $4.2828 thousand and $3.1 million, and $3.5 million forrespectively, during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 2021,2022, respectively.

The Company, through its majority-owned subsidiary, WorkSimpli, offers a subscription-based service providing a suite of software applications to its subscribers, principally on a monthly subscription basis. The software suite allows the subscriber/user to convert almost any type of document to another electronic form of editable document, providing ease of editing. For these subscription-based contracts with customers, the Company offers an initial 14-day trial period which is billed at $1.95, followed by a monthly subscription, or a yearly subscription to the Company’s software suite dependent on the subscriber’s enrollment selection. The Company has estimated that there is one product and one performance obligation that is delivered over time, as the Company allows the subscriber to access the suite of services for the time period of the subscription purchased. The Company allows the customer to cancel at any point during the billing cycle, in which case the customers subscription will not be renewed for the following month or year depending on the original subscription. The Company records the revenue over the customers subscription period for monthly and yearly subscribers or at the end of the initial 14-day service period for customers who purchased the initial subscription, as the circumstances dictate. The Company offers a discount for the monthly or yearly subscriptions being purchased, which is deducted at the time of payment at the initiation of the contract term; therefore the Contract price is fixed and determinable at the contract initiation. Monthly and annual subscriptions for the service are recorded net of the Company’s known discount rates.

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets are included in right-of-use assets, net on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The current and long-term components of operating lease liabilities are included in the current operating lease liabilities and noncurrent operating lease liabilities, respectively, on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. Certain leases may include options to extend or terminate the lease. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded in the balance sheet.

 

Accounts Receivable, net

 

Accounts receivable principally consist of amounts due from third-party merchant processors, who process our subscription revenues; the merchant accounts balance receivable represents the charges processed by the merchants that have not yet been deposited with the Company. The unsettled merchant receivable amount normally represents processed sale transactions from the final one to three days of the month, with collections being made by the Company within the first week of the following month. Management determines the need, if any, for an allowance for future credits to be granted to customers, by regularly evaluating aggregate customer refund activity, coupled with the consideration and current economic conditions in its evaluation of an allowance for future refunds and chargebacks. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the reserve for sales returns and allowances was approximately $344424 thousand and $477815 thousand, respectively. For all periods presented, as noted above, the sales returns and allowances were recorded in accrued expenses on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

Inventory

 

As of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, inventory primarily consisted of finished goods related to the Company’s OTC products included in the telehealth revenue section of the table above. Inventory is maintained at the Company’s third-party warehouse location in Wyoming and at various Amazon fulfillment centers. The Company also maintains inventory at a company owned warehouse in Pennsylvania.

 

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value with cost determined on an average cost basis. Management compares the cost of inventory with the net realizable value and an allowance is made for writing down inventory to net realizable, if lower. As of Septemberboth June 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the Company recorded an inventory reserve in the amount of approximately $44100 thousand and $57161 thousand, respectively.

Product Deposit

 

Many of our vendors require deposits when a purchase order is placed for goods or fulfillment services. These deposits typically range from 10% to 33% of the total purchased amount. Our vendors include a credit memo within their final invoice, recognizing the deposit amount previously paid. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the Company has approximately $108235 thousand and $204127 thousand, respectively, of product deposits with multiple vendors for the purchase of raw materials or finished goods. The Company’s history of product deposits with its inventory vendors, creates an implicit purchase commitment equaling the total expected product acceptance cost in excess of the product deposit. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021,2023, the Company approximates its implicit purchase commitments to be $582168 thousand, and $511 thousand, respectively. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021,which the vast majority of these product deposits are with two vendors that manufacture the Company’s finished goods inventory for its ShapiroMD and RexMD product lines.line.

 

Capitalized Software Costs

 

The Company capitalizes certain internal payroll costs and third-party costs related to internally developed software and amortizes these costs using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software, generally three years. The Company does not sell internally developed software other than through the use of subscription service. Certain development costs not meeting the criteria for capitalization, in accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal-Use Software, are expensed as incurred. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the Company capitalized a net amount of $10.310.4 million and $3.68.8 million, respectively, related to internally developed software costs which are amortized over the useful life and included in development costs on our statement of operations.

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment annually or more frequently, if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. Goodwill in the amount of $8.48.0 million was acquiredrecognized in conjunction with the Cleared acquisition during the three months ended March 31, 2022 (see Note 3).acquisition. The Company recorded aan $2.78.0 million goodwill impairment charge and an $827 thousand intangible asset impairment charge during the nine monthsyear ended September 30,December 31, 2022 related to a decline in the estimated fair value of Cleared as a result of a decline in the Cleared financial projections (see Note 3).

 

Other intangible assets are comprised of: (1) the ResumeBuild brand, (2) a customer relationship asset, (3) the Cleared trade name, (4) Cleared developed technology, (5) a purchased license and (6) two purchased domain names. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded an $827 thousand impairment loss related to a decline in the estimated fair value of the Cleared customer relationship intangible asset with an original cost of $919 thousand and accumulated amortization of $92 thousand. Other intangible assets are amortized over their estimated lives using the straight-line method. Costs incurred to renew or extend the term of recognized intangible assets are capitalized and amortized over the useful life of the asset.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets include equipment and capitalized software, and intangible assets subject to amortization.software. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If such assets are considered to be impaired, an impairment is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated fair values of the assets. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the Company determined that no events or changes in circumstances existed that would indicate any impairment of its long-lived assets.

 

Paycheck Protection Program

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company received aggregate loan proceeds in the amount of approximately $249,000 under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). The PPP, established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), provides for loans to qualifying businesses for amounts up to 2.5 times of the average monthly payroll expenses of the qualifying business. The loans and accrued interest are forgivable after eight weeks as long as the borrower uses the loan proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll, benefits, rent, and utilities and maintains its payroll levels. The amount of loan forgiveness will be reduced if the borrower terminates employees or reduces salaries during the eight-week period. The unforgiven portion of the PPP loan is payable over two years at an interest rate of 1%, with a deferral of payments for the first six months. The Company used the proceeds for purposes consistent with the PPP.

13

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had a total of $63,400 and $184,914, respectively, of its PPP loans forgiven by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) (See Note 6). As of September 30, 2022, the Company had no remaining PPP loan balance. As of December 31, 2021, the PPP loan balance was $63,400 and is reflected on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as current liabilities, within notes payable, net.

Income Taxes

 

The Company files corporate federal, state and local tax returns. LifeMD PR and WorkSimpli filefiles a tax returnsreturn in Puerto Rico. Both areRico; WorkSimpli is a limited liability companiescompany and file separatefiles tax returns with any tax liabilities or benefits passing through to its members.

 

The Company records current and deferred taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. This ASC requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for temporary differences between tax basis of assets and liabilities and the amounts at which they are carried in the financial statements, based upon the enacted rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company establishes a valuation allowance, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company periodically assesses the value of its deferred tax asset, a majority of which has been generated by a history of net operating losses and management determines the necessity for a valuation allowance. ASC 740 also provides a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Using this guidance, a company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position in its financial statements only if it is more likely-than-not (i.e.(i.e., a likelihood of more than 50%) that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company’s tax returns for all years since December 31, 2018,2019, remain open to audit by all related taxing authorities.

Stock-BasedStock-based Compensation

 

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 718, Share-Based Payment. Under this guidance compensation cost generally is recognized at fair value on the date of the grant and amortized over the respective vesting or service period. The fair value of options at the date of grant is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The expected option life is derived from assumed exercise rates based upon historical exercise patterns and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The expected volatility is based upon historical volatility of the Company’s common shares using weekly price observations over an observation period that approximates the expected life of the options. The risk-free interest rate approximates the U.S. Treasury yield curve rate in effect at the time of grant for periods similar to the expected option life. Due to limited history of forfeitures, the Company has elected to account for forfeitures as they occur. Many of the assumptions require significant judgment and any changes could have a material impact in the determination of stock-based compensation expense.

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per common share (“EPS”) is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period presented. Shares of unissued vested restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) are included in our calculation of basic weighted average shares outstanding. Convertible securities, warrants and options to purchase common stock are included as common stock equivalents only when dilutive. Potential common stock equivalents are excluded from dilutive earnings per share when the effects would be antidilutive.

 

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 260, Diluted Earnings per Share. In computing diluted EPS, basic EPS is adjusted for the assumed issuance of all potentially dilutive securities. The dilutive effect of call options, warrants and share-based payment awards is calculated using the “treasury stock method,” which assumes that the “proceeds” from the exercise of these instruments are used to purchase common shares at the average market price for the period. The dilutive effect of traditional convertible debt and preferred stock is calculated using the “if-converted method.” Under the if-converted method, securities are assumed to be converted at the beginning of the period, and the resulting common shares are included in the denominator of the diluted EPS calculation for the entire period being presented.

 

The following table summarizes the number of shares of common stock issuable pursuant to our convertible securities that were excluded from the diluted per share calculation because the effect of including these potential shares was antidilutive even though the exercise price could be less than the average market price of the common shares:

Segment Data

 

Our portfolio of brands are included within two operating segments: Telehealth and WorkSimpli. We believe our current segments and brands within our segments complement one another and position us well for future growth. Segment operating results are reviewed by the chief operating decision maker to make determinations about resources to be allocated and to assess performance. Other factors, including type of business, revenue recognition and operating results are reviewed in determining the Company’s operating segments.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The fair value of a financial instrument is based on 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. Assets and liabilities subject to ongoing fair value measurement are categorized and disclosed into one of the three categories depending on observable or unobservable inputs employed in the measurement. Hierarchical levels, which are directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to the valuation of these assets or liabilities, are as follows:

1.Level 1: Inputs that are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
2.Level 2: Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level 1) that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instrument’s anticipated life.
3.Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities and that reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date.

14

In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and the face amount of notes payable and convertible long-term debt approximate fair value for all periods presented.

 

Concentrations of Risk

 

The Company monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions with which it invests. The Company, at times, maintains balances in various operating accounts in excess of federally insured limits. We are dependent on certain third-party manufacturers and pharmacies, although we believe that other contract manufacturers or third-party pharmacies could be quickly secured if any of our current manufacturers or pharmacies cease to perform adequately. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, we utilized four (4)five suppliers for fulfillment services, seven (7)six suppliers for manufacturing finished goods, six suppliers for packaging, bottling, and labeling, and four (4)suppliers for prescription medications. As of December 31, 2022, we utilized four suppliers for fulfillment services, six suppliers for manufacturing finished goods, five suppliers for packaging, bottling, and labeling, and three (3) suppliers for prescription medications. As of December 31, 2021, we utilized four (4) suppliers for fulfillment services, six (6) suppliers for manufacturing finished goods and four (4) suppliers for packaging, bottling, and labeling.

 

Recently IssuedAdopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In October 2021,June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires an entity to utilize the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) impairment model to estimate its lifetime “expected credit loss” and record an allowance that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial assets and certain other instruments, including but not limited to available-for-sale debt securities. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities are recorded through an allowance for credit losses. ASU 2016-13 requires a cumulative effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates, which defers the effective date of ASU 2016-13 to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 for all entities except SEC reporting companies that are not smaller reporting companies. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 as of January 1, 2023. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805); Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. This new guidance affects all entities that enter into a business combination within the scope of ASC 805-10. Under this new guidance, the acquirer should determine what contract assets and/or liabilities it would have recorded under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as of the acquisition date, as if the acquirer had entered into the original contract at the same date and on the same terms as the acquirer. Under current U.S. GAAP, contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination are recorded by the acquirer at fair value. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluatingadopted ASU 2021-08 as of January 1, 2023. The adoption did not have a material impact on the effects that the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidatedCompany’s financial statements and related disclosures.statements.

 

Other Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

All other accounting standards updates that have been issued or proposed by the FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

 

NOTE 3 – ACQUISITIONS

 

On January 18, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Cleared. Cleared is a transformational additionThe acquisition adds to the Company’s growing portfolio of telehealth capabilities which moves us beyond treating lifestyle conditions into chronic conditions with large addressable market demand.capabilities. The Company accounted for the transaction using the acquisition method in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, with the purchase price being allocated to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective estimated fair values on the acquisition date. Fair values were determined using income approaches. TheThe results of Cleared are included within the consolidated financial statements commencing on the acquisition date.

 

The purchase price was approximately $9.1 million, including cash paid upfront of approximately $1.0 million and payable in the future of approximately $3.0 million, and contingent consideration of $5.1 million. The purchase agreement includesincluded up to $72.8 million of potential earn-out payable in cash or stock upon achievement of revenue targets, which iswas originally recognized as contingent consideration. The Company, with the assistance of a third-party valuation expert, estimated the fair value of the acquired tangible and identifiable intangible assets using significant estimates such as revenue projections. The fair value of the identified intangible assets was based primarily on significant unobservable inputs and thus represent a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. The fair value of the trade name and developed technology were determined using the relief-from-royalty method under the income approach. The royalty rates used to determine the fair value of the trade name and developed technology were 0.10% and 1.0%, respectively. The fair value of the customer relationships was determined using the multi-period excess earnings method which involves forecasting the net earnings expected to be generated. The customer attrition rate used to determine the fair value of the customer relationships was 10.0%. The discount rate used to determine the fair value of the trade name, developed technology and customer relationships was 70.5%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources Outlook

 

TheAs of June 30, 2023, the Company has fundedan accumulated deficit approximating $202.9 million and has experienced significant losses from its operations. To date, the Company has been funding operations in the pastprimarily through the sales of its products, issuance of common and preferred stock and through loans and advances from officers and directors. Our primary short-term and long-term requirements for liquidity and capital are for customer acquisition, fundacquisitions, funding business acquisitions and investments we may make from time to time, working capital including our noncancelable operating lease obligations, noncontingent consideration, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes. The Company has a current cash balance of approximately $6.4 million as of the filing date.

On March 21, 2023, the Company entered into and closed on a Credit Agreement, and a supplement to the Credit Agreement with Avenue. The Credit Agreement provides for a convertible senior secured credit facility of up to an aggregate amount of $40 million, comprised of the following: (1) $15 million in term loans funded at closing, (2) $5 million of additional committed term loans available in the fourth quarter of 2023 and (3) $20 million of additional uncommitted term loans, collectively referred to as the “Avenue Facility”. The Avenue Facility matures on October 1, 2026. The Company issued Avenue warrants to purchase $1.2 million of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.24, subject to adjustments. In addition, Avenue may convert up to $2 million of the $15 million in term loans funded at closing into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time while the loans are outstanding, at a price per share equal to $1.49. Proceeds from the Avenue Facility were used to repay the Company’s outstanding notes payable balances with CRG Financial and are expected to be used for general corporate purposes and at the Company’s election, re-financing up to $5 million liquidation value plus accrued interest of the Series B Preferred Stock.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company received proceeds of $2 million under a $2.5 million loan facility with CRG Financial, maturing on December 15, 2023. The loan facility includes interest of 12%. The Company repaid the $2 million outstanding loan balance on March 21, 2023 with the proceeds received from the Avenue Facility and recorded a $325 thousand loss on debt extinguishment due to a prepayment penalty and various fees associated with the CRG Financial loan. As of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the outstanding balance was $0 related to the CRG Financial loan.

In October 2022, the Company received proceeds of $976 thousand under a 12-month working capital loan with Amazon. The terms of the loan include interest in the amount of $62 thousand. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the outstanding balance was $442 thousand and $976 thousand, respectively, and is included in notes payable, net, on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

In November 2022, the Company received proceeds of $1.9 million under two 10-month working capital loans with Balanced Management. The terms of the loans include loan origination fees in the amount of $60 thousand and total interest of $840 thousand. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the outstanding balance was $294 thousand and $1.821 million, respectively, and is included in notes payable, net, on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

On June 8, 2021, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act, which was declared effective on June 22, 2021 (the “2021 Shelf”). Under the 2021 Shelf at the time of effectiveness, the Company originally had the ability to raise up to $150 million by selling common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, and units. In conjunction with the 2021 Shelf, the Company also entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “ATM Sales Agreement”) with B. Riley Securities, Inc. and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. relating to the sale of its common stock. In accordance with the terms of the ATM Sales Agreement, the Company may, but is not obligated to, offer and sell, from time to time, shares of common stock, through or to the Agents, acting as agent or principal. Sales of common stock, if any, will be made by any method permitted that is deemed an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act. On March 22, 2023, the date the Company filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, the Company became subject to the offering limits in General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3 (i.e., the “baby shelf limitations”). As a result of the baby shelf limitations, the Company was only able to offer and sell shares of common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $18.435 million pursuant to the ATM Sales Agreement, and it filed a prospectus supplement with the SEC to that effect on March 27, 2023. In June 2023, the Company’s public float increased above $75.0 million. As a result, the Company is no longer subject to the baby shelf limitations. The Company filed another prospectus supplement with the SEC to that effect on June 29, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has $59.5 million available under the ATM Sales Agreement.

The Company’s continued operations are dependent upon obtaining an increase in its sales volumes which the Company has been successful in achieving to date. However, there can be no assurances that we will continue to be successful in increasing revenues, improving operational efficiencies or that financing will be available or, if available, that such financing will be available under favorable terms.

 

The Company reviewed its forecasted operating results and sources and uses of cash used in management’s assessment, which included the available financing and consideration of positive and negative evidence impacting management’s forecasts, market, and industry factors. The Company’s continuance as a going concern is highly dependent on its future profitability and on the on-going support of its stockholders, affiliates, and creditors. Based on these circumstances, management has determined that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. We believe that the accounting policies below are critical for one to fully understand and evaluate our financial condition and results of operations.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company records revenue under the adoption of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, by analyzing exchanges with its customers using a five-step analysis:

 

1.Identify the contract
2.Identify performance obligations
3.Determine the transaction price
4.Allocate the transaction price
5.Recognize revenue

 

For the Company’s product-based contracts with customers, the Company has determined that there is one performance obligation, which is the delivery of the product; this performance obligation is transferred at a discrete point in time. The Company generally records sales of finished products once the customer places and pays for the order, with the product being simultaneously shipped by a third-party fulfillment service provider; in limitedprovider. In some cases, the customer does not obtain control until the product reaches the customer’s delivery site,site; in these limited cases, recognition of revenue should beis deferred until that time, however the Company does not have a process to properly record the recognition of revenue if orders are not immediately shipped, and deems the impact to be immaterial.time. In all cases, delivery is considered to have occurred when the customer obtains control, which is usually commensurate upon shipment of the product. In the case where delivery is not commensurate upon shipment of the product, recognition of revenue is deferred until that time. In the case of its product-based contracts, the Company provides a subscription sensitive service based on the recurring shipment of products andproducts. The Company records the related revenue under the subscription agreements subsequent to receiving the monthly product order, recording the revenue at the time it fulfills the shipment obligation to the customer.

 

For its product-based contracts with customers, the Company records an estimate for provisions of discounts, returns, allowances, customer rebates, and other adjustments for its product shipments and are reflected as contra revenues in arriving at reported net revenues. The Company’s discounts and customer rebates are known at the time of sale,sale; correspondingly, the Company reduces gross product sales for such discounts and customer rebates. The Company estimates customer returns and allowances based on information derived from historical transaction detail and accounts for such provisions, as contra revenue, during the same period in which the related revenues are earned. The Company has determined that the population of its product-based contracts with customers are homogenous, supporting the ability to record estimates for returns and allowances to be applied to the entire product-based portfolio population. Customer discounts, returns and rebates on telehealth revenues approximated $497 thousand and $1.6 million, respectively, during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Customer discounts, returns and rebates on telehealth revenues approximated $828 thousand and $3.1 million, respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

The Company, through its majority-owned subsidiary WorkSimpli, offers a subscription-based service providing a suite of software applications to its subscribers, principally on a monthly subscription basis. The software suite allows the subscriber/user to convert almost any type of document to another electronic form of editable document, providing ease of editing. For these subscription-based contracts with customers, the Company offers an initial 14-day trial period which is billed at $1.95, followed by a monthly subscription, or a yearly subscription to the Company’s software suite dependent on the subscriber’s enrollment selection. The Company has estimated that there is one product and one performance obligation that is delivered over time, as the Company allows the subscriber to access the suite of services for the time period of the subscription purchased. The Company allows the customer to cancel at any point during the billing cycle, in which case the customers subscription will not be renewed for the following month or year depending on the original subscription. The Company records the revenue over the customers subscription period for monthly and yearly subscribers or at the end of the initial 14-day service period for customers who purchased the initial subscription, as the circumstances dictate. The Company offers a discount for the monthly or yearly subscriptions being purchased, which is deducted at the time of payment at the initiation of the contract term,term; therefore the Contract price is fixed and determinable at the contract initiation. Monthly and annual subscriptions for the service are recorded net of the Company’s known discount rates. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has accrued contract liabilities, as deferred revenue, of approximately $2.4 million and $1.5 million, respectively, which represent obligations on in-process monthly or yearly contracts with customers and a portion attributable to the yet to be recognized initial 14-day trial period collections.

34

Customer discounts, returns, and rebates on telehealth revenues approximated $1.1 million and $871 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Customer discounts, returns, and rebates on telehealth revenues approximated $4.2 million and $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Customer discounts and allowances on WorkSimpli revenues approximated $710$788 thousand and $377$580 thousand, forrespectively, during the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and 2021,2022, respectively. Customer discounts and allowances on WorkSimpli revenues approximated $1.7 million and $1.6$1.0 million, forrespectively, during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

37

As of June 30, 2023 and 2021, respectively.December 31, 2022, the Company has accrued contract liabilities, as deferred revenue, of approximately $5.7 million and $5.5 million, respectively, which represent the following: (1) obligations for products which the customer has not yet obtained control due to delivery not commensurate upon shipment of the product, (2) obligations on WorkSimpli in-process monthly or yearly contracts with customers and (3) a portion attributable to the yet to be recognized WorkSimpli initial 14-day trial period collections.

 

Capitalized Software Costs

 

The Company capitalizes certain internal payroll costs and third-party costs related to internally developed software and amortizes these costs using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software, generally three years. The Company does not sell internally developed software other than through the use of subscription service. Certain development costs not meeting the criteria for capitalization, in accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal-Use Software, are expensed as incurred. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the Company capitalized $10.3a net amount of $10.4 million and $3.6$8.8 million, respectively, related to internally developed software costs which isare amortized over the useful life and included in development costs on our statement of operations. The increase in capitalized software costs of $6.7$1.6 million or 186%18%, is primarily attributable to costs incurred related to development efforts of our LifeMD PC platform.

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment annually or more frequently, if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. Goodwill in the amount of $8.4$8.0 million was acquiredrecognized in conjunction with the Cleared acquisition during the three months ended March 31, 2022 (see Note 3).acquisition. The Company recorded a $2.7an $8.0 million goodwill impairment charge and an $827 thousand intangible asset impairment charge during the nine monthsyear ended September 30,December 31, 2022 related to a decline in the estimated fair value of Cleared as a result of a decline in the Cleared financial projections (see Note 3).

 

Other intangible assets are comprised of: (1) the ResumeBuild brand, (2) a customer relationship asset, (3) the Cleared trade name, (4) Cleared developed technology, (5) a purchased license and (6) two purchased domain names. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded an $827 thousand impairment loss related to a decline in the estimated fair value of the Cleared customer relationship intangible asset with an original cost of $919 thousand and accumulated amortization of $92 thousand. Other intangible assets are amortized over their estimated lives using the straight-line method. Costs incurred to renew or extend the term of recognized intangible assets are capitalized and amortized over the useful life of the asset.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets include equipment and capitalized software, and intangible assets subject to amortization.software. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If such assets are considered to be impaired, an impairment is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated fair values of the assets. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the Company determined that no events or changes in circumstances existed that would indicate any impairment of its long-lived assets.

 

Income Taxes

The Company files corporate federal and state tax returns. Conversion Labs PR and WorkSimpli file tax returns in Puerto Rico. Both are limited liability companies and file separate tax returns with any tax liabilities or benefits passing through to its members.

The Company records current and deferred taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. This ASC requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for temporary differences between tax basis of assets and liabilities and the amounts at which they are carried in the consolidated financial statements, based upon the enacted rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company establishes a valuation allowance, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company periodically assesses the value of its deferred tax asset, a majority of which has been generated by a history of net operating losses and management determines the necessity for a valuation allowance. ASC 740 also provides a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Using this guidance, a company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position in its financial statements only if it is more likely-than-not (i.e., a likelihood of more than 50%) that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company’s tax returns for all years since December 31, 2018, remain open to audit by all related taxing authorities.

35

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 718, Share-Based Payment. Under this guidance compensation cost generally is recognized at fair value on the date of the grant and amortized over the respective vesting or service period. The fair value of options at the date of grant is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The expected option life is derived from assumed exercise rates based upon historical exercise patterns and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The expected volatility is based upon historical volatility of the Company’s common stock shares using weekly price observations over an observation period that approximates the expected life of the options. The risk-free rate approximates the U.S. Treasury yield curve rate in effect at the time of grant for periods similar to the expected option life. Due to limited history of forfeitures, the Company has elected to account for forfeitures as they occur.

Many of the assumptions require significant judgment and any changes could have a material impact in the determination of stock-based compensation expense.

Recently IssuedAdopted Accounting Standards

 

In October 2021,June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires an entity to utilize the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) impairment model to estimate its lifetime “expected credit loss” and record an allowance that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial assets and certain other instruments, including but not limited to available-for-sale debt securities. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities are recorded through an allowance for credit losses. ASU 2016-13 requires a cumulative effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) and Leases (Topic 842): Effective Dates, which defers the effective date of ASU 2016-13 to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 for all entities except SEC reporting companies that are not smaller reporting companies. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 as of January 1, 2023. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

38

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805); Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. This new guidance affects all entities that enter into a business combination within the scope of ASC 805-10. Under this new guidance, the acquirer should determine what contract assets and/or liabilities it would have recorded under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as of the acquisition date, as if the acquirer had entered into the original contract at the same date and on the same terms as the acquirer. Under current U.S. GAAP, contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination are recorded by the acquirer at fair value. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects that theadopted ASU 2021-08 as of January 1, 2023. The adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

 

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation and subject to the foregoing, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below.

 

The ineffectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was due to the following material weaknesses which are indicative of many small companies with small number of staff:

 

(i)inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives;
(ii)inadequate controls related to revenue recognition;
(iii)insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respectsrespect to the requirements and application of both U.S. GAAP and SEC Guidelines; and
(iii)(iv)inadequate information technology general controls specifically related to security, andsegregation of duties, user access, restricted access to computer systems including a disaster recovery plan.and change management.

Management’s Plan to Remediate the Material Weakness

 

Management has been implementing and continues to implement measures designed to ensure that control deficiencies contributing to the material weaknesses are remediated, such that these controls are designed, implemented, and operating effectively. The Company has added a functioning audit committeeformally documented its procedures for many of the significant accounting and adopted written policies on related party transactionsfinancial reporting processes, in addition to, identifying and whistleblower protection. Additionally, the Company has added qualified independent outside directors and hired additional qualified officers and skilled accounting personnel.remediating design deficiencies in its processes. The other remediation actions planned include:

 

(i)re-designimplementation of our accounting processes and control procedures;controls to ensure revenue is recognized upon shipment;
(ii)further documentation and implementation of control procedures and the implementation of control monitoring; and
(iii)identify and remedy gaps in our information technology general controls specifically related to the areas of security, andsegregation of duties, user access, restricted access policies to computer systems and implement a disaster recovery plan.change management.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

As discussed above, we are implementing certain measures to remediate the material weaknesses identified in the design and operation of our internal control over financial reporting. Other than those measures, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2022,2023, that materially affected, our internal control over financial reporting as of that date.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

In the ordinary course of our operations, we become involved in ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business. Material proceedings are described under Note 9,10, “Commitments and Contingencies” to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in the Company’s common stock involves a number of very significant risks. You should carefully consider the risk factors included in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021,2022, as filed with the SEC on March 7, 2022,22, 2023, in addition to other information contained in our reports and in this quarterly report in evaluating the Company and its business before purchasing shares of our common stock. Except as set forth below, thereThere have been no material changes to our risk factors contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.2022. The Company’s business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected due to any of those risks. In addition:

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Our historical financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $178 million. We have limited financial resources, and as of September 30, 2022 we had a working capital deficit of $12.0 million and a cash balance of $5.8 million. We will need to raise additional capital or secure debt funding to support on-going operations. The sources of this capital are expected to be the sale of equity and debt, which may not be available on favorable terms, if at all, and may, if sold, cause significant dilution to existing stockholders. If we are unable to access additional capital moving forward, it may hurt our ability to grow and to generate future revenues, our financial position, and liquidity. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Unless management is able to obtain additional financing, it is unlikely that the Company will be able to meet its funding requirements during the next 12 months. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The doubt regarding our potential ability to continue as a going concern may adversely affect our ability to obtain new financing on reasonable terms or at all. Additionally, if we are unable to continue as a going concern, our stockholders may lose some or all of their investment in the Company.

 

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
