NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

 

1. BASIS1.BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements and instructions for Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. Operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results for any other quarter or for a full year. In connection with the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Companymanagement evaluated subsequent events after the balance sheet date of June 30, 2022March 31, 2023 through the filing of this report.

 

As of June 30, 2022, the Company has a working capital deficit of $2,324,203. Our current liabilities include deferred revenue of $1,482,540 and a $233,000 nonrefundable customer deposit. The costs expected to be incurred to realize the deferred revenue in the next 12 months are minimal.

The Company has a plan in place for the next 12 months to ensure ongoing expenditures are balanced with the expected growth rate and believes cash on hand and cash generated will be sufficient to fund operations for the next 12 months. However, to implement our business plan may require additional financing. Additional financings may come from future equity or debt offerings that could result in dilution to our stockholders. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available or that, if it is available, it will be on terms acceptable to us.

These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with ourthe consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 20212022 contained in ourthe Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission dated March 30, 2022.31, 2023.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

Recent events inAdverse macroeconomic conditions, including inflation, slower growth or recession, and higher interest rates could materially adversely affect demand for the Ukraine and Russia have caused disruptions in the global financial markets. While we do not have any operations or customers in the Ukraine or Russia, we will continue to monitor the situation as a prolonged conflict could impact our business.Company’s services.

 

2.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

a) Nature of operations

 

We areQuotemedia, Inc. (the “Company”) is a software developer and distributor of financial market data and related services to a global marketplace. We specializeThe Company specializes in the collection, aggregation, and delivery of both delayed and real-time financial data content via the Internet. We developThe Company develops and license software components that deliver dynamic content to banks, brokerage firms, financial institutions, mutual fund companies, online information and financial portals, media outlets, public companies, and corporate intranets.

 

b) Basis of consolidation

 

TheThese consolidated financial statements include the operations of QuoteMedia, Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of QuoteMedia, Inc. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

c) Foreign currency translation and transactions

 

The U.S. dollar is the functional currency of all our company'sof the Company's operations. Foreign currency asset and liability amounts are remeasured into U.S. dollars at end-of-period exchange rates, except for equipment and intangible assets, which are remeasured at historical rates. Foreign currency income and expenses are remeasured at average exchange rates in effect during the year, except for expenses related to balance sheet amounts remeasured at historical exchange rates. Because the U.S. dollar is the functional currency, exchange gains and losses arising from remeasurement of foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities are included in income in the period in which they occur.

 

d) Allowances for doubtful accounts

 

We maintainThe Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of the Company’s customers to make required payments. The Company determines the allowance by reviewing the age of the receivables and assessing the anticipated ability of customers to pay. No collateral is required for any of the receivables and the Company does not usually apply financing charges to outstanding accounts receivable balances. If the financial condition of ourthe Company’s customers were to deteriorate, adversely affecting their ability to make payments, additional allowances would be required. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $150,000$125,000 and $200,000 as of June 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021.2022, respectively. Bad debt expense was $30,633expenses were ($64,093) and $58,502$5,558 for the three ended June 30,March 31, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, respectively. Bad debt expense was $36,191 and $78,324 for the six-months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

o

Subscriptions are typically sold for a fixed fee and revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the subscription.

The Company does not provide the customerits customers with the right to take possession of its software products at any time.

 

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

 

 

·

Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer

 

 

 

 

·

Identification of the performance obligations in the contract

 

 

 

 

·

Determination of the transaction price

 

 

 

 

·

Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

 

 

 

 

·

Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation

 

The Company executes a signed contract with the customer that specifies services to be provided, the payment amounts and terms, and the period of service, among other terms.

 

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. The Company records a receivable when revenue is recognized prior to invoicing, or deferred revenue when revenue is recognized subsequent to invoicing. Upfront set-up or development fees are deferred and recognized over the service term of the contract, as set-up and development fees are not distinct from the market data service contracts to which they relate.

The Company considers the following factors when determining if collection of a fee is reasonably assured: customer creditworthiness, past transaction history with the customer, current economic industry trends, and changes in customer payment terms. If these factors do not indicate collection is reasonably assured, revenue is deferred until collection becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon receipt of cash.

Cost of revenue

Cost of revenue primarily consists of customer support personnel-related compensation expenses, including salaries, bonuses, benefits, payroll taxes, and stock-based compensation expense, as well as expenses related to third-party hosting costs, software license fees, amortization of capitalized software development costs, amortization of acquired technology intangible assets, and allocated overhead.

f) Accounting Pronouncements

 

Recently Adopted

 

There are no new recentlyOn January 1, 2023, the Company adopted accounting pronouncements for the three-months ended June 30, 2022.

Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), which changes the impairment model for most financial assets, including accounts receivable, and replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss methodology, which will result in more timely recognition of credit losses. The guidance is effective for the Company for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2016-13 will have a significanthad no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Not Yet Adopted

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the complexity associated with applying U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. More specifically, the amendments focus on the guidance for convertible instruments and derivative scope exception for contracts in an entity's own equity. The new standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2020-06 will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

 

3.PRIOR PERIOD ERRORRESTATEMENTS

 

Subsequent to the filing of its Quarterly Report for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2022, the Company reassessed its classification of warrants to purchase shares of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (“Compensation Preferred Stock Warrants” – see Financial Statement Note 79Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and StockholdersStockholders’ Deficit”). The Company concluded that its original classification of the Preferred Stock Warrants as equity was incorrect and that the Preferred Stock Warrants should have been classified as a liability in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities From Equity. The error was not material and resulted, resulting in the following revisionrevisions in the Company’s comparative consolidated financial statements:

We haveThe Company has operating leases for corporate offices and finance leases for certain equipment. OurThe leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to 5 years. We determineManagement determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease assets and liabilities are included in operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities, respectively, on ourthe consolidated balance sheets. Finance lease assets and liabilities are included in property and equipment and finance lease liabilities, respectively, on ourthe consolidated balance sheets.

 

Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most of ourthe leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use ouran incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. Wepayments is used. Management elected the short-term lease exception and therefore only recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases with a term greater than one year. When determining lease terms, we factormanagement factors in options to extend or terminate leases when it is reasonably certain that wethe Company will exercise that option. We haveThe Company has lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately. For certain leases we accountthe Company accounts for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.

At June 30, 2022, there was $7,035 of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested options and warrants granted to purchase common stock which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.5 years.

 

All stock options and warrants to purchase common stock have been granted with exercise prices equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying common shares on the date of grant. At June 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, the aggregate intrinsic value of options and warrants outstanding was $3,921,022. The aggregate intrinsic value of options and warrants exercisable was $3,756,022.$5,725,118. The intrinsic value of stock options and warrants are calculated as the amount by which the market price of ourthe Company’s common stock exceeds the exercise price of the option or warrant.

 

Preferred Stock Warrants

 

Pursuant to the December 28, 2017 Compensation Agreement with David M. Shworan, the President and Chief Executive Officer of QuoteMedia, Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Quotemedia, Inc., the Company issued Mr. Shworan warrants to purchase shares of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (“Compensation Preferred Stock Warrants”) in lieu of a cash salary. From the period December 28, 2017 to December 31, 2019 the Company issued a total of 31,250 Compensation Preferred Stock Warrants at an exercise price equal to $1.00 per share.

 

Also pursuant to the Compensation Agreement with Mr. Shworan, on December 28, 2017 the Company issued Mr. Shworan warrants to purchase up to 382,243 shares of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock at an exercise price equal to $1.00 per share (“Liquidity Preferred Stock Warrant”). The Liquidity Preferred Stock Warrants only vest and become exercisable on the consummation of a Liquidity Event as defined in the Company’s Certificate of Designation of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock. The probability of the liquidity event performance condition is not currently determinable or probable; therefore, no compensation expense has been recognized as of June 30, 2022.March 31, 2023. The probability is re-evaluated each reporting period. As of June 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, there was $7,185,430 in unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to these Liquidity Preferred Stock Warrants. Since the Liquidity Preferred Stock Warrants only vest and become exercisable on the consummation of a Liquidity Event which is currently determined not to be probable, we aremanagement is also unable to determine the weighted-average period over which the unrecognized compensation cost will be recognized.

The Company adheres to ASC 820, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 applies to reported balances that are required or permitted to be measured at fair value under existing accounting pronouncements; accordingly, the standard does not require any new fair value measurements of reported balances.

 

ASC 820 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).

 

·

Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company could access.

·

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

·

·         Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company could access.

·         Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

·         Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which is typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity.

 

In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

The estimated fair value of the Preferred Stock Warrant liability is determined using Level 3 inputs. As of June 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021,2022, the fair value of the Preferred Stock Warrant Liability was $587,440$707,125 and $513,750,$629,375, respectively. The Preferred Stock Warrants were valued using a bond plus option framework reflecting the cash flow of the Preferred Stock Warrants and used a probability weighted sum of the value in each potential year before expiration to estimate the fair value of the Preferred Stock Warrants. Volatility was based on public peer companies, adjusted for size and leverage. Risk-free rate was selected based on term matched Treasury securities. Bond repayment depends on the Company’s timely access to the required cash and as such, is discounted at the Company’s assumed borrowing rate. This model was run based on the Management's expected term and probabilities of a liquidity event.  The key inputs for the framework were as follows as of June 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2021:2022:

8. LOSSEARNINGS PER SHARE

 

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income during the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, excluding the dilutive effects of common stock equivalents. Common stock equivalents include redeemable convertible preferred stock, stock options and warrants. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted shares outstanding is calculated using the treasury stock method by adding to the weighted shares outstanding any potential shares of common stock from outstanding redeemable convertible preferred stock, stock options and warrants that are in-the-money. In periods when a net loss is reported, all common stock equivalents are excluded from the calculation because they would have an anti-dilutive effect, meaning the loss per share would be reduced. Therefore, in periods when a loss is reported, the calculation of basic and dilutive loss per share results in the same value. The calculations for basic and diluted net income per share for the threethree-months ended March 31, 2023 and six-months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 are as follows:

9. PAYCHECK PROTECTION PROGRAM

On May 4, 2020, the Company received a $133,257 loan under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). The PPP, established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), provides qualifying businesses with these proceeds for amounts up to 2.5 times of the average monthly payroll expenses of the qualifying business. The proceeds and accrued interest are forgivable after twenty-four weeks, known as the covered period, as long as the borrower uses the proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll, benefits, rent and utilities, and maintains its payroll levels. The PPP loan was forgiven in its entirety on February 19, 2021. In accordance with ASC 470, Debt, the forgiveness of the loan was recognized as other income on our consolidated statements of operations in the comparative six-months ended June 30, 2021 period.

A key feature of QuoteMedia’s business model is that all of our product lines generate recurring monthly licensing revenue from each client. Contracts to license Quotestream to our corporate clients, for example, typically have a term of one to five years and are automatically renewed unless notice is given at least 90 days prior to the expiration of the current license term. We also generate Quotestream revenue through individual end-user licenses on a monthly or annual subscription fee basis. Interactive Content and Data APIs and Market Data Feeds are licensed for a monthly, quarterly, annual, or semi-annual subscription fee. Contracts to license our Financial Data Products and Data Feeds typically have a term of one to five years and are automatically renewed unless notice is given 90 days prior to the expiration of the contract term.

 

Business Environment and Trends

 

The global financial markets experienced extreme volatility and disruption over the past couple years due to the COVID-19 pandemic. While global financial markets are recovering, risk still exists; therefore, we will continue to closely monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business, including how it will impact team members, customers, suppliers, and global markets. Most of our employees, particularly in Canada, continue to work remotely. While our licensed-based revenue is generally more recurring in nature, the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic ledrecent market volatility, rising inflation and federal debt level payment uncertainty may result in some clients to delay purchasing decisions, product and service implementations or cancel or reduce spending with us in the early stages of the pandemic. While the impact of COVID-19 appears to be diminishing, we are focused on maintaining a strong balance sheet and liquidity position and will continue to closely monitor the potential impact of COVID-19 and adjust our response going forward as circumstances dictate.

us. Recent events in the Ukraine and Russia have also caused disruptions in the global financial markets. While we do not have any operations or customers in the Ukraine or Russia, we will continue to monitor the situation as a prolonged conflict could impact our business.

 

InApproximately 38% of our revenue and 39% of our expenses are denominated in Canadian dollars. The Canadian dollar depreciated 7% against the U.S. dollar when comparing the average exchange rate for the three-months ended March 31,2023 versus the comparative 2022 we finalizedperiod. This decreased both Canadian dollar revenues and expenses by approximately 3% once translated into U.S. dollars but had a contract with a large multinational financial institution that was effective January 1,minimal impact on our net income and cash flow.

Our revenue increased 11% for the three-months ended March 31, 2023 versus the comparative 2022 and signed a statement of work with another large multinational financial institution to start services while their contract is being finalized. Pursuant to the statement of work, we received a partial development fee payment of $300,000 in Q2 2022 which has been deferred until the start of the service component of the contract. Once finalized, the service component of the contract is expected to start in Q4 2022. The contracts are for a wide range of services that will be included in both portfolio management and interactive content and data API revenue.period. Based on these new contracts and our other clients currentlyrevenue already under contract, we expect our revenue growth of 19% in fiscal 2022, and similar revenue growth in fiscal 2023. We also expect to report a profit for fiscal 2022, and we except our net income to significantly improve infor the remainder of fiscal 2023. This is mainly due to the new contracts mentioned above as they have significantly higher gross margins than our typical customer contracts have on average.

 

Plan of Operation

 

For the remainder of 20222023 we plan to continue to expand our product lines and improve our infrastructure. We plan to continue to add more features and data to our existing products and release newer versions with improved performance and flexibility for client integration. This expansion is expected to result in both increased revenue and costs for the remainder of fiscal 2022.2023.

 

We will maintain our focus on marketing Quotestream for deployments by brokerage firms to their retail clients and continue our expansion into the investment professional market with Quotestream Professional. We also plan to continue the growth of our Data Feed Services client base, particularly through the addition of major new international data feed coverage, as well as new data delivery products.

 

QuoteMedia will continue to focus on increasing the sales of its Interactive Content and Data APIs, particularly in the context of large-scale enterprise deployments encompassing solutions ranging across several product lines. QMod is a major component of this strategy, given the broad demand for mobile-ready, SEO-friendly Web content.

 

Important development projects for the remainder of 20222023 include broad expansion of data and news coverage, including the addition of a wide array of international exchange data and news, video feeds, expansion of fixed-income coverage, and the introduction of several new and upgraded market information products.

 

New deployments of our trade integration capabilities, which allow our Quotestream applications to interact with our brokerage clients’ back-end trade execution and reporting platforms (enabling on-the-fly trade execution and tracking of holdings) are underway and will continue to be a priority in the coming year.

 

We are also creating new proprietary data sets, analytics, and scoring mechanisms. We are now aggregating data direct from the sources to produce data sets that are proprietary to QuoteMedia. This allows us to offer our clients new data products and lower our product costs structure as we replace some of our existing data providers with our own lower cost data.

 

Opportunistically, efforts will be made to evaluate and pursue the development of additional new products that may eventually be commercialized by our company. Although not currently anticipated, we may require additional capital to execute our proposed plan of operation. There can be no assurance that such additional capital will be available to our company on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

Our future performance will be subject to a number of business factors, including those beyond our control, such as a continuation of market uncertainty and evolving industry needs and preferences, as well as the level of competition and our ability to continue to successfully market our products and technology. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully implement our marketing strategy, continue our revenue growth, or maintain profitable operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our cash totaled $890,292$675,065 at June 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, as compared with $258,705$477,987 at December 31, 2021,2022, an increase of $631,587.$197,078. Net cash of $2,017,350$992,379 was provided by operations for the six-monthsthree-months ended June 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, primarily due to adjustmentadjustments for non-cash charges and the increasesincrease in deferred revenue, andoffset by a decrease in accounts payable offset by an increase in accounts receivable.and accrued liabilities. Net cash used in investing activities for the six-monthsthree-months ended June 30, 2022March 31, 2023 was $1,384,379,$795,301, primarily due to capitalized application software costs and the purchases of fixed assets. Cash used in financing activities for the six-months ended June 30, 2022 was $1,384 related to the repayment of finance leases.

 

We typically operate with a working capital deficit.  As of June 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, our working capital deficit is $2,324,203,was $1,806,768, however current liabilities include $1,482,540$1,095,103 in deferred revenue and a $233,000 nonrefundable customer deposit.revenue. The expected costs necessary to realize the deferred revenue are minimal.  If circumstances dictate, we have the flexibility to reduce development spending to maintain a strong liquidity position.

 

Based on the factors discussed above, we believe that our cash on hand and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to fund our current operations for at least the next 12 months through August 2023.April 2024. However, to implementimplementing our business plan may require additional financing. Additional financingsfinancing may come from future equity or debt offerings that could result in dilution to our stockholders. Further, current adverse capital and credit market conditions could limit our access to capital. We may be unable to raise capital or bear an unattractive cost of capital that could reduce our financial flexibility.

 

Our long-term liquidity requirements will depend on many factors, including the rate at which we expand our business and whether we do so internally or through acquisitions. To the extent that the funds generated from operations are insufficient to fund our activities in the long term, we may be required to raise additional funds through public or private financing. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available or that, if it is available, it will be on terms acceptable to us.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURESControls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation and supervision of our Chairman of the Board and Chairman of the Audit Committee, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of June 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, and concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our management identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, as described below.

 

Notwithstanding the material weaknesses described below our management has concluded that our consolidated financial statements for the periods covered by and included in this Quarterly Report are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for each of the periods presented herein.

 

The following material weaknesses were identified during the preparation and review of the current period financial statements:

 

· There is a lack of segregation of duties in financial reporting.

·

Management review controls were not designed and implemented to operate at an appropriate level of precision and lack sufficient personnel resources to detect and identify potential material errors relating to -

The valuation and accounting for complex financial instruments, including the Company’s warrant agreements.

Account reconciliations and financial reporting relating to the accounting for revenue and leases.

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2022March 31, 2023 covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, with the exception of the below.

Plan for Remediation

We plan to hire or contract additional finance and accounting personnel who possess public company accounting and reporting technical expertise.

We will consider further actions and continue to evaluate the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and internal controls and procedures on an ongoing basis, taking corrective action as appropriate. Management does not expect that disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls can prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. While management believes that its disclosure controls and procedures provide reasonable assurance that fraud can be detected and prevented, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.reporting.
