To a lesser extent we are seeing similar government stimulus funds drive demand in other parts of Europe.

education.

The K-12 education sector represents one of the largest industry segments. In the USThe U.S. sector is comprised of approximately 15,600 public school districts across the 50 states and 132,000 public and private elementary and secondary schools. In addition to its size, the U.S. and certain EMEA K-12 education market ismarkets are highly decentralized and isare characterized by complex content adoption processes. We believe this market structure underscores the importance of scale and industry relationships and the need for broad, diverse coverage across states, districts and schools. Even while we believe certain initiatives in the education sector, such as the Common Core State Standards, a set of shared math and literacy standards benchmarked to international standards, have increased standardization in K-12 education content, we believe significant state standard specific customization still exists, and we believe the need to address customization provides an ongoing need for companies in the sector to maintain relationships with individual state and district policymakers and expertise in state-varying academic standards.

According to All Global Market Education & Learninga December 2023 report by FutureSource Consulting Ltd.("Futuresource"), an industry publication, the U.S. display market for hardware products is growing dueexpected to increasesreach $44 billion by 2027. While the education sector has historically represented the majority of displays sold, growth in the use of interactive whiteboards and simulation-based learning hardware. Educational institutions have become more receptivecorporate sector continue to outpace the education sector with sales to the implementationcorporate sector expected to reach approximately 44% of high-tech learning tools. The advent of technologythe global display market in the classroom has enabled multi-modal training and varying curricula. In general, technology-based tools help develop student performance when integrated with the curriculum. The constant progression of technology in education has helped educators to create classroom experiences that are interactive, developed and collaborative.

highly fragmented allowing the Company to position itself for increased market share in each of these sectors.

Our Opportunity
Globally it is widely acknowledged that long-term economic growth is closely correlated to investment in education and educational technology, thus sustaining long-term growth in the market, even during periods of economic downturn. Further details of our solution and favorable macro-economic analysis are set forth below:

Growth in U.S. K-12 Market Expenditures

Significant resources are being devoted to primary and secondary education, both in the United States and abroad. As set forth in the Executive Office of the President, Council of Economic Advisersa December 2023 report U.S. education expenditure has been estimated at approximately $1.3 trillion (~6% of U.S. GDP), with K-12 education accountingby Futuresource, US Schools are budgeting for close to half ($625 billion) of this spending. Global spending is roughly triple U.S. spending for K-12 education.

more IT in their classrooms.

The market for K-12 services and technology has historically grown above the pace of inflation, averaging 7.2% growth annually since 1969. Deviations around this mean occur during periods of economic growth and recession causing peaks and troughs in the K-12 market, albeit below other sectors.

Justifying

HolonIQ market analysis states thatreported in the Global EdTech Venture Capital Report that there has been some $32 billion in venture capital investment in the education/technology sector in the last decade (approximately 33% within the US) and predicts nearly triple that investment through to 2030. FollowingFurther, the report estimates that the global “expenditure on education and training from governments, parents, individuals and corporates continues to grow to historic levels and is expected to reach USD$10TUSD $10 trillion by 2030”.

Futuresource, in 2019, stated: “Forecast [for US Interactive Display Market] for the next four years is expected to be strong, averaging 13% growth per year. The transition to IFPDs will contribute to the market almost doubling in value over five years to $1.6B in 2023.2030.

Increasing Focus on Accountability and the Quality of Student Education

U.S. K-12 education has come under significant political scrutiny in recent years, with findings that American students rank far behind other global leaders in international tests of literacy, math and science, with the resulting conclusion that the current state of U.S. education severely impairs the United States’ economic, military and diplomatic security as well as broader components of America’s global leadership.

We believe this scrutiny will cause there to be increased investment into the education sector.

Trends in Tech-Savvy Education

While industries from manufacturing to health care have adopted technology to improve their results, according to Stanford Business School in its Trends in Tech-Savvy Education, the education field remains heavily reliant on “chalk and talk” instruction conducted in traditional settings; however, that is changing as schools and colleges adopt virtual classrooms, data analysis, online games, highly customized coursework, and other cutting-edge tools to help students learn.

New Technologies

The delivery of digital education content is also driving a substantial shift in the education market. In addition to whiteboards, interactive projectors and interactive flat panels,flat-panels, other technologies are being adapted for educational uses on the Internet, mobile devices and through cloud-computing, which permits the sharing of digital files and programs among multiple computers or other devices at the same time through a virtual network. We intend to be a leader in the development and implementation of these additional technologies to create effective digital learning environments.

Growth in the E-learning Market

According to the “E-learning Market – Global Outlook and Forecast 2020-2025,Thethe e-learning market is expected to display significant growth opportunities in the next five years. While the growth curve is uniform in terms of the number of users, the same is not the case by revenues; the average cost of content creation and delivery with the same is undergoing a consistent decline.

Natural User Interfaces (NUIs)

Tablets and the new class of “smart TVs” are part of a growing list of other devices built with natural user interfaces that accept input in the form of taps, swipes, and other ways of touching; hand and arm motions; body movement; and increasingly, natural language. Natural user interfaces allow users to engage in virtual activities with movements similar to what they would use in the real world, manipulating content intuitively. The idea of being able to have a completely natural interaction with a device is not new, but neither has its full potential been realized. For example, medical students increasingly rely on simulators employing natural user interfaces to practice precise manipulations, such as catheter insertions, that would be far less productive if they had to try to simulate sensitive movements with a mouse and keyboard. NUIs make devices seem easier to use and more accessible, and interactions are far more intuitive, which promotes exploration and engagement.

Operation with a mobile device is enabled via the three-user license for MimioMobile, provided with the MimioStudio license that accompanies all front-of-classroom devices from Mimio.

MimioMobile Collaboration and Assessment Application

The introduction of MimioMobile, a software accessory for MimioStudio, in 2014 introduced a new era of fully interactive student activities that are directly and immediately able to be displayed on the front-of-classroom interactive displays through MimioStudio.

MimioMobile allows fully interactive activities to be pushed to student classroom devices. The students can manipulate objects within the activities, annotate “on top” of them, and even create completely new content on their own handheld devices. MimioMobile also enables assessment using the mobile devices. The teacher can create multiple choice, true\false, yes\no, and text entry assessment questions. The students can respond at their own speedpace and their answers are stored within MimioStudio from which the teacher can display graphs showing student results. This “continuous assessment” allowsprovides formative assessment that can help guide the teacher as to whether to re-teach the material if understanding is low or move forward in the lesson. We believe that this interactive and student dependent instructional model can dramatically enhance student outcomes.

Competition

The interactive education industry is highly competitive and characterized by frequent product introductions and rapid technological advances that have substantially increased the capabilities and use of interactive projectorsflat-panels and interactive whiteboards. Interactive whiteboards,displays, since the time they were first introduced, have evolved from a high-cost technology that involves multiple components requiring professional installers, to a one-piece technology that is available at increasingly reduced-price points and affords simple installations. With lowered technology entry barriers, we face heated competition from other interactive whiteboarddisplay developers, manufacturers and distributors. We compete with other developers, manufacturers and distributors of interactive projectorsdisplays and personal computer technologies, tablets, television screens and smart phones, such as Smart Technologies, Promethean, ViewSonic, Dell Computers, Samsung, Panasonic and ClearTouch.

Even with these competitors, the market presents new opportunities in responding to demands to replace outdated and failing interactive whiteboardsdisplays with more affordable and simpler solution interactive whiteboards.displays. Our ability to integrate our technologies and remain innovative and develop new technologies desired by our current and potential new contract manufacturing customers will determine our ability to grow our contract manufacturing divisions. In addition, we have begun to see expansion in the market tofor sales of complementary products that work in conjunction with the interactive technology, including software, audio solutions, data capture and tablets.

Recent Financing
On December 31, 2021, the Company and substantially all of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including Boxlight, FrontRow, and Sahara as guarantors (together the "Loan Parties"), entered into a maximum four-year $68.5 million term loan credit facility, dated December 31, 2021 (the “Credit Agreement”), with WhiteHawk Finance LLC, as lender (the “Lender”), and WhiteHawk Capital Partners, LP, as collateral agent (“the Collateral Agent”). Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company received an initial term loan of $58.5 million on December 31, 2021 (the “Initial Loan”) and obtained a delayed draw facility of up to $10 million (the “Delayed Draw”). The Initial Loan and the Delayed Draw are collectively referred to as the Term Loans. The “Term Loans” bear interest at the LIBOR rate plus 10.75%; provided that after June 30, 2022, if the Company’s Senior Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is less than 2.25, the interest rate would be reduced to LIBOR plus 10.25%. Such terms are subject to the Company maintaining a borrowing base in compliance with the Credit Agreement.
The proceeds of the Initial Loan were used to finance the Company’s acquisition of FrontRow and pay off all indebtedness owed to our then lenders. Of the Initial Loan, $8.5 million, was subject to repayment on February 28, 2022, with quarterly principal payments of $625,000 and interest payments commencing March 31, 2022, and the $40.0 million remaining balance plus any Delayed Draw loans becoming due and payable in full on December 31, 2025.
In conjunction with its receipt of the Initial Loan, the Company issued to the Lender (i) 66,022 shares of Class A common stock (the “Shares”), which Shares were registered pursuant to our existing shelf registration statement and were delivered to the Lender in January 2022, (ii) a warrant to purchase 255,412 shares of Class A common stock (subject to increase to the extent of 3% of any Series B and Series C convertible preferred stock converted into Class A common stock), exercisable at $16.00 per share (the “Warrant”), which Warrant may be subject to repricing on March 31, 2022 based on the arithmetic volume weighted average prices for the 30 trading days prior to March 31, 2022, in the event our stock is then trading below $16.00 per share, (iii) a 3% fee of $1,800,000 and (iv) a $500,000 original issue discount. In

addition, the Company agreed to register for resale the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant. The Company also incurred agency fees, legal fees and other costs in connection with the execution of the Credit Agreement. Based on the arithmetic volume weighted average prices of the Company’s Class A common stock for the 30 trading days prior to March 31, 2022, the exercise price of the Warrant was reduced to $9.52 per share and the shares increased to 429,263. On July 22, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an accredited institutional investor. According to the terms of the Credit Agreement, this purchase agreement triggered a reduction of the exercise price of the Warrants. The Warrants were repriced to $8.80, and shares increased to 464,385.

In February 2022, the Lender and the Company agreed in principle to an extension of the February 2022 Payment. Pursuant to amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated April 4, 2022, the Collateral Agent and Lender agreed to extend the terms of repayment of the $8.5 million originally due on February 28, 2022 until February 28, 2023 and waive and/or otherwise extend compliance with certain other terms of the Credit Agreement in order to allow the Loan Parties adequate time to comply with such terms (the “First Amendment”). In July 2022, the Company and the Lender agreed that the notice had inadvertently included the default with respect to the failure to repay $8.5 million of the facility. As a result, notwithstanding the notice, both the Lender and the Company have agreed that the Company was not in default in making the February 2022 Payment to the Lender.

The principal elements of the First Amendment included (a) an extension of time to repay $8.5 million of the principal amount of the term loan from February 28, 2022 to February 28, 2023, and (b) forbearance on $3,500,000 in over advances until May 16, 2022 to allow the Company to come into compliance with the borrowing base requirements set forth in the Credit Agreement. In such connection, the Loan Parties have obtained credit insurance on certain key customers whose principal offices are located in the European Union and Australia as, without the credit insurance, their accounts owed to the Loan Parties had been deemed ineligible for inclusion in the borrowing base calculation primarily due to the perceived inability of the Collateral Agent to enforce security interests on such accounts. In addition, the Lender and Collateral Agent agreed to (i) reduce, through September 30, 2022, the minimum cash reserve requirement for the Loan Parties, (ii) reduce the interest rate by 50 basis points (to LIBOR plus 9.75%) after delivery of the Loan Parties’ September 30, 2023 financial statements, subject to the Loan Parties maintaining 1.75 EBITDA coverage ratio, and (iii) waive all prior Events of Default (as defined therein) under the Credit Agreement. In conjunction with this First Amendment to the Credit Agreement, the parties entered into an amended and restated fee letter (the “Fee Letter”) pursuant to which the parties agreed to prepayment premiums of (i) 5% for payments made on or before December 31, 2022, (ii) 4% for payments made between January 1, 2023 and December 31, 2023, and (iii) 2% for payments made between January 1, 2024 and December 31, 2025. Furthermore, the parties agreed that no prepayment premiums would be payable with respect to the first $5.0 million paid under the Term Loan, any payments made in relation to the $8.5 million due on or before February 28, 2023, any required amortization payments under the Credit Agreement and any mandatory prepayments by way of ECF or casualty events.

On March 29, 2022, the Company received a notice from the Collateral Agent, alleging, among other things, defaults as a result of (i) failure to repay $8.5 million of the facility by February 28, 2022, (ii) non-compliance with the borrowing base resulting in the Company being in an over advance position under the Credit Agreement, and (iii) failure to timely provide certain reports and documents. As a result, all accrued and unpaid interest owed under the Term Loan, became subject to a post-default interest rate equal to the highest interest rate allowed for under the Credit Agreement plus 2.50% until such time as the events of default were either waived or cured.

On April 4, 2022, the Collateral Agent and Lender agreed to extend the terms of repayment of the $8.5 million originally due on February 28, 2022 until February 28, 2023. The principal elements of the April amendment included (a) an extension of time to repay $8.5 million of the principal amount of the term loan from February 28, 2022 to February 28, 2023, and (b) forbearance on $3.5 million in over advances until May 16, 2022 to allow the Company to come into compliance with the borrowing base requirements set forth in the Credit Agreement. In such connection, the Loan Parties obtained credit insurance on certain key customers whose principal offices are located in the European Union and Australia as, without the credit insurance, the accounts of these key customers had been deemed ineligible for inclusion in the borrowing base calculation primarily due to the perceived inability of the Collateral Agent to enforce security interests on such accounts. In addition, the Lender and Collateral Agent agreed to (i) reduce, through September 30, 2022, the minimum cash reserve requirement for the Loan Parties, (ii) reduce the interest rate by 50 basis points (to Libor plus+ 9.75%) after delivery of the Loan Parties’ September 30, 2023 financial statements, subject to the Loan Parties maintaining 1.75 EBITDA coverage ratio, and (iii) waive all prior Events of Default under the Credit Agreement. Furthermore, the parties agreed that no prepayment premiums would be payable with respect to the first $5.0 million paid under the Term

Loan, any payments made in relation to the $8.5 million due on or before February 28, 2023, any required amortization payments under the Credit Agreement and any mandatory prepayments by way of excess cash flow or casualty events.

On June 21, 2022, the Company and substantially all of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, entered into a second amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement December 31, 2021 and as amended on April 4, 2022, with the Collateral Agent and Lender. The Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement was entered into for purposes of the Lender funding a $2.5 million delayed draw term loan and adjusting certain terms to the Credit Agreement, including adjusting the Applicable Margin (as defined in the Second Amendment) to 13.25% for LIBOR Rate Loans and 12.25% for Reference Rate Loans, increasing the definition of change of control from 33% voting power to 40% voting power, requiring the Company to engage a financial advisor, and allowing additional time, until July 15, 2022, for the Company to come into compliance with certain borrowing base requirements set forth in the Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement, among other adjustments.

On April 24, 2023, the Loan Parties entered into a third amendment (the “Third Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement, with the Collateral Agent and the Lender. The Third Amendment was entered into for purposes of the Lender funding an additional $3.0 million delayed draw term loan (the “Additional Draw”). The Additional Draw was funded on April 24, 2023, must be repaid on or prior to September 29, 2023, and is not subject to any prepayment penalties, and adjusts certain terms to the Credit Agreement, including adjusting the test period end dates and corresponding Senior Leverage Ratios (as defined in the Credit Amendment) and revising the minimum liquidity requirements that the Company must maintain compliance with pertaining to certain Borrowing Base Requirements, among other adjustments. The completion of the Additional Draw eliminates further delayed draws under the Credit Agreement. On July 20, 2023, the Company paid the $3.0 million due under the terms of the Third Amendment. There were no prepayment penalties or premiums included with this payment.

On June 26, 2023, the Loan Parties entered into a fourth amendment (the “Fourth Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement with the Collateral Agent and the Lender for the sole purpose of replacing LIBOR-based rates with a SOFR-based rate. Following the Fourth Amendment, the Company’s interest rate is calculated as the Daily Simple SOFR, subject to a floor of 1%, plus the SOFR Term Adjustment and Applicable Margin, as defined in the Credit Agreement, as amended. The Fourth Amendment made no other changes to the Credit Agreement.

Effective as of March 14, 2024, the Loan Parties entered into a fifth amendment (the “Fifth Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement with the Collateral Agent and the Lender for the purpose of amending and restating the Senior Leverage Ratio and Minimum Liquidity (as defined in the Fifth Amendment),In addition, the Lender and Collateral Agent agreed to waive any actual or potential event of default that may have arisen as a result of the Loan Parties failure to comply with certain financial covenants required in the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2023 and in the interim two-month period ended February 29, 2024. The Fifth Amendment also added additional financial reporting obligations and potentially may include certain foreign subsidiaries of Boxlight Inc. as additional guarantors under the Credit Agreement.

Although, as of the date of this report, we have been successful in obtaining a waiver from the Lender regarding the above mentioned financial covenant default, there can be no assurance that the Lender will not declare an event of default and acceleration of all of our obligations under the Credit Agreement in the event we are unable to get into full compliance with these covenants in the future. See “Item 1 Risk Factors - Risks Related to Our Business, Operations and Financial Condition - We have not complied with certain covenants, minimum liquidity and borrowing base requirements under the Credit Agreement and this could cause us to be unable to continue to operate as a going concern.”

Risks

Circumstances Related to Our Business, Operations and Financial Condition

We have not complied with certain covenants,minimum liquidity and borrowing base requirements under the Credit Agreement and this could cause us to be unable to continue to operate as a going concern.
As mentioned before, we have been unable to comply with certain covenants under our Credit Agreement with the Lender.Although, to date, we have been successful in obtaining forbearance agreements with respect to these matters and avoid defaults under the agreement, there can be no assurance that the lender will not declare an event of default and acceleration all of our obligations under the Credit Agreement in the event we are unable to get into full compliance with these covenants in the future. We are considering various alternatives to potentially refinancing such indebtedness. We believe that our ability to do so will require an improvement of our 2023 financial performance in 2024. In addition, there is no assurance that we will refinance the indebtedness, so if so, the terms will be favorable to us. Additionally, we have disclosed this in our periodic reports filed with the SEC that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We have a substantial amount of indebtedness bearing interest at a variable rate, which may adversely affect our cash flow and our ability to operate our business.
We have a significant amount of indebtedness. As of December 31, 2023, we have approximately $43 million of indebtedness outstanding, all of which is secured. Our substantial amount of indebtedness could have important consequences. For example, it could:
19

increase our vulnerability to adverse economic, industry or competitive developments;
result in an event of default if we fail to satisfy our obligations with respect to our Credit Agreement or which event of default could result in all of our debt becoming immediately due and payable and could permit our lenders to foreclose on our assets securing such debt;
require a substantial portion of cash flow from operations to be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on our indebtedness, therefore reducing our ability to use cash flow to fund our operations, capital expenditures and future business opportunities;
limit our ability to service our indebtedness;
limit our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, debt service requirements, or general corporate purpose;
The occurrence of any one of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects.
In addition, borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at variable rates. If these rates were to increase significantly, the risk related to our substantial indebtedness would intensify. While we may enter into agreements limiting our exposure to higher interest rates, any such agreements may not offer complete protection for this risk.
Unfavorable global economic or political conditions, including the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and Israel and Hamas may adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations.
Our results of operations could be adversely affected by general conditions in the global economy and in the global financial markets. Inflation rates, particularly in the United States, have increased recently to levels not seen in years. Increased inflation may result in increased operating costs (including our labor costs), reduced liquidity, and limitations on our ability to access credit or otherwise raise debt and equity capital. In addition, the United States Federal Reserve has raised, and may again raise, interest rates in response to concerns about inflation. Increases in interest rates, especially if coupled with reduced government spending and volatility in financial markets, may have the effect of further increasing economic uncertainty and heightening these risks, which may impact our ability to raise additional capital in the future. The March 2023 failure of Silicon Valley Bank and its potential near- and long-term effects on the overall banking industry, may also adversely affect our operations and stock price. In addition, U.S. and global markets are experiencing volatility and disruption following the escalation of geopolitical tensions and the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
On February 24, 2022, a full-scale military invasion of Ukraine by Russian troops began. Although the length and impact of the ongoing military conflict is highly unpredictable, the conflict in Ukraine has led to market disruptions, including significant volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, as well as supply chain disruptions. While neither Ukraine nor Russia is a key supplier of ours, the scope, intensity, duration and outcome of the ongoing war is uncertain and its continuation or escalation could have a material adverse effect on our business due to the general impact on the global supply chain and prices of certain commodities. While we presently have no business or direct trade relationships with entities located in Russia or Ukraine, the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine could potentially cause supply chain disruptions that could disrupt our business should any of our end-suppliers rely on supplies, products or shipments from those regions.
In response to the war, the United States, other North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”) member states, as well as non-member states, have announced targeted economic sanctions on Russia, certain Russian citizens and enterprises. Any continuation or escalation of the war may trigger a series of additional economic and other sanctions. Certain companies have experienced negative reactions from their investors, employees, customers, or other stakeholders as a result of their action or inaction related to the war between Russia and Ukraine. We continue to monitor the reactions of our investors, employees, customers and other stakeholders and, as of the date of this report, have neither experienced any material adverse financial impacts nor suffered from the loss of key customers or employees.

Further, in October 2023, a military conflict commenced between Israel and Hamas. It is not possible to predict the broader or longer-term consequences of these conflicts, which could include further sanctions, embargoes, regional instability, energy shortages, geopolitical shifts and adverse effects on macroeconomic conditions, security conditions,
20

currency exchange rates and financial markets. Such geopolitical instability and uncertainty could have a negative impact on our ability to sell to, ship products to, collect payments from, and support customers in certain regions based on trade restrictions, embargoes and export control law restrictions, and logistics restrictions including closures of air space, and could increase the costs, risks and adverse impacts from these new challenges. We may also be the subject of increased cyber-attacks. While currently the countries involved in these conflicts do not constitute a portion of our business, a significant escalation or expansion of economic disruption or the conflicts' current scope could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
In addition, the risk of cybersecurity incidents has increased in connection with the ongoing war, driven by justifications such as retaliation for the sanctions imposed in conjunction with the war, or in response to certain companies’ continued operations in Russia. For example, the war has been accompanied by cyberattacks against the Ukrainian government and other countries in the region. It is possible that these attacks could have collateral effects on additional critical infrastructure and financial institutions globally, which could adversely affect our operations and could increase the frequency and severity of cyber-based attacks against our information technology systems. While we have taken actions to mitigate such potential risks, the proliferation of malware from the war into systems unrelated to the war or cyberattacks against U.S. companies in retaliation for U.S. sanctions against Russia or U.S. support of Ukraine, could also adversely affect our operations.
We insure ourselves against many types of risks; however, while this insurance may mitigate certain of the risks associated with general market disruptions, including the risk related to the banking system and the ongoing war in Ukraine, our level of insurance may not cover all losses we could incur. The potential effects of these conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
War, terrorism, other acts of violence, changing circumstances related to the COVID-19 Pandemic or potential effects of future pandemics, are increasingly unpredictable and could adversely affect our business operations and the market for our products.

War, terrorism, other acts of violence or natural or man-made disasters, including a global pandemic, may affect the markets in which the Company operates, the Company’s customers, the Company’s delivery of products and customer service, and could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, or financial conditions.

The Company’s business may be adversely affected by instability, disruption or destruction in a geographic region in which it operates, regardless of cause, including war, terrorism, riot, civil insurrection or social unrest, and natural or man-made disasters, including famine, food, fire, earthquake, storm or pandemic events and spread of disease (including the recentCOVID-19 outbreak of the coronavirus commonly referred to as “COVID-19”)which commenced in 2020). Such events may cause customers to suspend their decisions on using the Company’s products and services, make it impossible to attend or sponsor trade shows or other conferences in which our products and services are presented to customers and potential customers, cause restrictions, postponements and cancellations of events that attract large crowds and public gatherings such as trade shows at which we have historically presented our products, and give rise to sudden significant changes in regional and global economic conditions and cycles that could interfere with purchases of goods or services, commitments to develop new products. These events also pose significant risks to the Company’s personnel and to physical facilities, transportation and operations, which could materially adversely affect the Company’s financial results.

As a result of

While conditions surrounding the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic seem to have stabilized, there is nonetheless a risk related to modification of the traditional classroom setting, similar to what occurred during 2020 to 2021 when many classrooms were all virtual, that may result in reduced demand for our classroom solutions, including reduced demand for our interactive displays due to extended or indefinite distance and digital learning.

There is also a risk of reduced borrowing with our factoring and purchase order financing facilities, as well as the risk of inability to raise additional capital.

Education markets in the U.S., and around the world, are being negatively affected by COVID-19, as state and local governments are finding themselves increasingly short on funding, which could result in a significantly depressed market for our products.

The U.S. has experienced a substantial economic downturn, with unemployment reaching numbers not seen since the Great Depression. While this present economic downturn occurred as a direct result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and the resulting shelter-in-place guidelines set in place by state and local governments, we do not yet know how severe or long lasting the present economic downturn will be. At present, the budgets of many state and local governments, including budgets for local schools and school districts to whom we market our products, are likely to be severely impacted as funds that may have been earmarked for educational resources are moved to cover budget shortfalls to meet the increased healthcare costs and those of first responders. Governmental authorities have taken significant measures to provide economic assistance to individual households and businesses, stabilize the markets, and support economic growth. The success of these measures is unknown, and they may not be sufficient to fully mitigate the negative impact of the pandemic or its effect on the market for our goods and services.

Risks Related to Our Business, Operations and Financial Condition

We generate a substantial portion of our revenue from the sale of our display products, and any significant reduction in sales of these products would materially harm our business.

For the year ended December 31, 2020,2023, we generated approximately 88.1%78% of our revenuerevenues from sales of our interactive display products, consisting of projectors, interactive projectorsflat-panels and interactive flat panels.whiteboards. A decrease in demand for our interactive displays would significantly reduce our revenue. If any of our competitors introduces attractive alternatives to our interactive displays, we could experience a significant decrease in sales as customers migrate to those alternative products.

21

Our business is subject to seasonal fluctuations, which may cause our operating results to fluctuate from quarter-to-quarter and adversely affect our working capital and liquidity throughout the year.

Our revenues and operating results normally fluctuate as a result of seasonal variations in our business, driven largely by the purchasing cycles of the educational market. Traditionally, the bulk of expenditures by school districts occur in the second and third calendar quarters after receipt of budget allocations. We expect quarterly fluctuations in our revenues and operating results to continue. These fluctuations could result in volatility and adversely affect our cash flow. As our business grows, these seasonal fluctuations may become more pronounced. As a result, we believe that sequential quarterly comparisons of our financial results may not provide an accurate assessment of our financial position.

Our working capital requirements and cash flows are subject to fluctuation, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition.

Our working capital requirements and cash flows have historically been, and are expected to continue to be, subject to quarterly and yearly fluctuations, depending on a number of factors. Factors which could result in cash flow fluctuations include:

the level of sales and the related margins on those sales;
the collection of receivables;
the timing and size of purchases of inventory and related components; and
the timing of payment on payables and accrued liabilities.

the level of sales and the related margins on those sales;
the collection of receivables;
the timing and size of purchases of inventory and related components; and
the timing of payment on payables and accrued liabilities.
If we are unable to manage fluctuations in cash flow, our business, operating results and financial condition may be materially adversely affected. For example, we may be unable to make required interest payments on our indebtedness.

We operate in a highly competitive industry.

We are engaged in the interactive education industry. We face substantial competition from developers, manufacturers and distributors of interactive learning products and solutions, including interactive projectors,flat-panel displays, interactive whiteboards and micro-computer data logging products and any new product we may offer in the future. The industry is highly competitive and characterized by frequent product introductions and rapid technological advances that have substantially increased the capabilities and use of interactive projectors,flat-panel displays, interactive whiteboards, and micro-computer-based logging technologies and combinations of them. We face increased competition from companies with strong positions in certain markets we serve, and in new markets and regions we may enter. These companies manufacture and/or distribute new, disruptive or substitute products that compete for the pool of available funds that previously could have been spent on interactive displays and associated products.

Many of these competitors have, and our potential competitors may have, significantly greater financial and other resources than we do and have spent, and may continue to spend, significant amounts of resources to try to enter or expand their presence in the market. In addition, low-cost competitors have appeared in China and other countries. We may not be able to compete effectively against these current and future competitors. Increased competition or other competitive pressures have and may continue to result in price reductions, reduced margins or loss of market share, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Some of our customers are required to purchase equipment by soliciting proposals from several sources and, in some cases, are required to purchase from the lowest bidder. While we attempt to price our products competitively, based upon the relative features they offer, our competitors’ prices and other factors, we are often not the lowest bidder and, in such cases, may lose sales.

Competitors may be able to respond to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements more effectively and faster than we can or devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of products than we can. Current and potential competitors may establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties, including through mergers or acquisitions, to increase the ability of their products to address the needs of customers. If these interactive display competitors or other substitute or alternative technology competitors acquire significantly increased market share, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

22

If we are unable to continually enhance our products and to develop, introduce and sell new technologies and products at competitive prices and in a timely manner, our business will be harmed.

The market for interactive learning and collaboration solutions is still emerging and evolving. It is characterized by rapid technological change and frequent new product introductions, many of which may compete with, be considered as alternatives to or replace our interactive displays. For example, we have recently observed significant sales of tablet computers by competitors to school districts in the U.S. whose technology budgets could otherwise have been used to purchase interactive displays. Accordingly, our future success will depend upon our ability to enhance our products and to develop, introduce and sell new technologies and products offering enhanced performance and functionality at competitive prices and in a timely manner.

The development of new technologies and products involves time, substantial costs and risks. Our ability to successfully develop new technologies will depend in large measure on our ability to maintain a technically skilled research and development staff and to adapt to technological changes and advances in the industry. The success of new product introductions depends on a number of factors, including timely and successful product development, market acceptance, the effective management of purchase commitments and inventory levels in line with anticipated product demand, the availability of components in appropriate quantities and costs to meet anticipated demand, the risk that new products may have quality or other defects and our ability to manage distribution and production issues related to new product introductions. If we are unsuccessful in selling the new products that we develop and introduce, or any future products that we may develop, we may carry obsolete inventory and have reduced available working capital for the development of other new technologies and products.

If we are unable, for any reason, to enhance, develop, introduce and sell new products in a timely manner, or at all, in response to changing market conditions or customer requirements or otherwise, our business will be harmed.

We may not be successful in our strategy to increase sales in the business and government market.

The majority of our revenue has been derived from sales to the education market. Our business strategy contemplates expanding our sales in both the education market, as well as to the business and government training sectors. However, to date, there has not been widespread adoption of interactive displays and collaboration solutions in the business and government market, and these solutions may fail to achieve wide acceptance in this market. Successful expansion into the business and government markets will require us to augment and develop new distribution and reseller relationships, and we may not be successful in developing those relationships. In addition, widespread acceptance of our interactive solutions may not occur due to lack of familiarity with how our products work, the perception that our products are difficult to use and a lack of appreciation of the contribution they can make in the business and government markets. In addition, the Boxlight brands are less recognized in these markets as compared to the education market. A key part of our strategy to grow in the business and government market is to develop strategic alliances with companies in the unified communications and collaboration sector, and there can be no assurance that these alliances will help us to successfully grow our sales in this market.

Furthermore, our ability to successfully grow in the business and government market depends upon revenue and cash flows derived from sales to the education market. As the education market represents a significant portion of our revenue and cash flow, we utilize cash from sales in the education market for our operating expenses. If we cannot continue to augment and develop new distributor and reseller relationships, market our brand, develop strategic alliances and innovate new technologies, we may not be successful in our strategy to grow in the business and government market.

As a result of market saturation, our future sales of interactive displays in developed markets may slow or decrease.

As a result of the high levels of penetration in developed markets, the education market for interactive displays in the U.S., U.K. and Australia may have reached saturation levels. Future sales growth in those markets and other developed markets with similar penetration levels may, as a result, be difficult to achieve, and our sales of interactive displays may decline in those countries. If we are unable to replace the revenue and earnings, we have historically derived from sales of interactive displays to the education market in these developed markets, whether through sales of additional products, sales in other underserved markets, such as Africa, Latin America, and Asia, sales in the business and government market or otherwise, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

23

We face significant challenges growing our sales in foreign markets.

For our products to gain broad acceptance in all markets, we may need to develop customized solutions specifically designed for each country in which we seek to grow our sales and to sell those solutions at prices that are competitive in that country. For example, while our hardware requires only minimal modification to be usable in other countries, our software and content require significant customization and modification to adapt to the needs of foreign customers. Specifically, our software will need to be adapted to work in a user-friendly way in several languages and alphabets, and content that fits the specific needs of foreign customers (such as, for example, classroom lessons adapted to specific foreign curricula) will need to be developed. If we are not able to develop, or choose not to support, customized products and solutions for use in a particular country, we may be unable to compete successfully in that country and our sales growth in that country will be adversely affected. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully develop or choose to support customized solutions for each foreign country in which we seek to grow our sales or that our solutions, if developed, will be competitive in the relevant country.

Growth in many foreign countries will require us to price our products competitively in those countries. In certain developing countries, we have been and may continue to be required to sell our products at prices significantly below those that we are currently charging in developed countries. Such pricing pressures could reduce our gross margins and adversely affect our revenue.

Our customers’ experience with our products will be directly affected by the availability and quality of our customers’ Internet access. We are unable to control broadband penetration rates, and, to the extent that broadband growth in emerging markets slows, our growth in international markets could be hindered.

In addition, we will face lengthy and unpredictable sales cycles in foreign markets, particularly in countries with centralized decision making. In these countries, particularly in connection with significant technology product purchases, we have experienced recurrent requests for proposals, significant delays in the decision-making process and, in some cases, indefinite deferrals of purchases or cancellations of requests for proposals. If we are unable to overcome these challenges, the growth of our sales in these markets would be adversely affected, and we may incur unrecovered marketing costs, impairing our profitability.

Our suppliers may not be able to always supply components or products to us on a timely basis and on favorable terms, and as a result, our dependency on third partythird-party suppliers has adversely affected our revenue and may continue to do so.

We do not manufacture any of the products we sell and distribute and, therefore, rely on our suppliers for all products and components and depend on obtaining adequate supplies of quality components on a timely basis with favorable terms. Some of those components, as well as certain complete products that we sell are provided to us by only one key supplier or contract manufacturer. We are subject to disruptions in our operations if our sole or limited supply contract manufacturers decrease or stop production of components and products, or if such suppliers and contract manufacturers do not produce components and products of sufficient quantity. Alternative sources for our components are not always available. Many of our products and components are manufactured overseas, so they have long lead times, and events such as local disruptions, natural disasters or political conflict may cause unexpected interruptions to the supply of our products or components. In addition, we do not have written supply agreements with our suppliers. Although we are endeavoring to enter into written agreements with certain of all of our suppliers, we cannot assure that our efforts will be successful. Furthermore, due to the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic the companyCompany may experience materialmaterially adverse impacts on its supply chain.

chain in the event of sanctions or shipping embargoes caused by any conflict, war, or pandemics.

We rely on highly skilled personnel, and, if we are unable to attract, retain or motivate qualified personnel, we may not be able to operate our business effectively.

Our success depends in large part on continued employment of senior management and key personnel who can effectively operate our business, as well as our ability to attract and retain skilled employees. Competition for highly skilled management, technical, research and development and other employees is intense in the high-technology industry, and we may not be able to attract or retain highly qualified personnel in the future. In making employment decisions, particularly in the high-technology industry, job candidates often consider the value of the equity awards they would receive in connection with their employment. Our long-term incentive programs may not be attractive enough or perform sufficiently to attract or retain qualified personnel.

24

Table of Contents
If any of our employees leaves us, and we fail to effectively manage a transition to new personnel, or if we fail to attract and retain qualified and experienced professionals on acceptable terms, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our success also depends on our having highly trained financial, technical, recruiting, sales and marketing personnel. We will need to continue to hire additional personnel as our business grows. A shortage in the number of people with these skills or our failure to attract them to our companyCompany could impede our ability to increase revenues from our existing products and services, ensure full compliance with federal and state regulations, or launch new product offerings and would have an adverse effect on our business and financial results.

We may have difficulty in entering into and maintaining strategic alliances with third parties.

We have entered into and we may continue to enter into strategic alliances with third parties to gain access to new and innovative technologies and markets. These parties are often large, established companies. Negotiating and performing under these arrangements involves significant time and expense, and we may not have sufficient resources to devote to our strategic alliances, particularly those with companies that have significantly greater financial and other resources than we do. The anticipated benefits of these arrangements may never materialize and performing under these arrangements may adversely affect our results of operations.

21

We use resellers and distributors to promote and sell our products.

Substantially all our sales are made through resellers and distributors. Industry and economic conditions have the potential to weaken the financial position of our resellers and distributors. Such resellers and distributors may no longer sell our products, or may reduce efforts to sell our products, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, if our resellers and distributors’ abilities to repay their credit obligations were to deteriorate and result in the write-down or write-off of such receivables, it would negatively affect our operating results and, if significant, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, our resellers and most of our distributors are not contractually required to sell our products exclusively and may offer competing interactive display products, and therefore we depend on our ability to establish and develop new relationships and to build on existing relationships with resellers and distributors. We cannot assureensure that our resellers and distributors will act in a manner that will promote the success of our products. Factors that are largely within the control of those resellers and distributors but are important to the success of our products include:

the degree to which our resellers and distributors actively promote our products;
the extent to which our resellers and distributors offer and promote competitive products; and
the quality of installation, training and other support services offered by our resellers and distributors.

the degree to which our resellers and distributors actively promote our products;
the extent to which our resellers and distributors offer and promote competitive products; and
the quality of installation, training and other support services offered by our resellers and distributors.
In addition, if some of our competitors offer their products to resellers and distributors on more favorable terms or have more products available to meet their needs, there may be pressure on us to reduce the price of our products, or those resellers and distributors may stop carrying our products or de-emphasize the sale of our products in favor of the products of these competitors. If we do not maintain and continue to build relationships with resellers and distributors our business will be harmed.

If our electronic data is compromised, our business could be significantly harmed.
We and our business partners maintain significant amounts of data electronically in locations around the world. This data relates to all aspects of our business, including current and future products under development, as well as certain customer, consumer, supplier, partner and employee data. We maintain systems and processes designed to protect this data, but notwithstanding such protective measures, there is a risk of intrusion, cyber-attacks or tampering that could compromise the integrity and privacy of this data. In addition, we provide confidential and proprietary information to our third-party business partners in certain cases where doing so is necessary to conduct our business. While we obtain assurances from those parties that they have systems and processes in place to protect such data, and where applicable, that they will take steps to assure the protections of such data by third parties, nonetheless those partners may also be subject to data intrusion or otherwise compromise the protection of such data. Any compromise of the confidential data of our customers, consumers, suppliers, partners, employees or ourselves, or failure to prevent or mitigate the loss of or damage to
25

this data through breach of our information technology systems or other means could substantially disrupt our operations, harm our customers, consumers, employees and other business partners, damage our reputation, violate applicable laws and regulations, subject us to potentially significant costs and liabilities and result in a loss of business that could be material.
A failure to keep pace with developments in technology could impair our operations or competitive position.
Our business continues to demand the use of sophisticated systems and technology. These systems and technologies must be refined, updated and replaced with more advanced systems on a regular basis in order for us to meet our customers’ demands and expectations. If we are unable to do so on a timely basis or within reasonable cost parameters, or if we are unable to appropriately and timely train our employees to operate any of these new systems, our business could suffer. We also may not achieve the benefits that we anticipate from any new system or technology, such as fuel abatement technologies, and a failure to do so could result in higher than anticipated costs or could impair our operating results.
An information security incident, including a cybersecurity breach, could have a negative impact to the Company’s business or reputation.
To meet business objectives, the Company relies on both internal information technology (IT) systems and networks, and those of third parties and their vendors, to process and store sensitive data, including confidential research, business plans, financial information, intellectual property, and personal data that may be subject to legal protection. The extensive information security and cybersecurity threats, which affect companies globally, pose a risk to the security and availability of these IT systems and networks, and the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the Company’s sensitive data. The Company continually assesses these threats and makes investments to increase internal protection, detection and response capabilities, as well as ensure the Company’s third-party providers have required capabilities and controls to address these risks. To date, the Company has not experienced any material impact to the business or operations resulting from information or cybersecurity attacks; however, because of the frequently changing attack techniques, along with the increased volume and sophistication of the attacks, there is the potential for the Company to be adversely impacted. This impact could result in reputational, competitive, operational or other business harm as well as financial costs and regulatory action.
Risks Related to our Industry and Regulations.

Regulations

Decreases in, or stagnation of, spending or changes in the spending policies or budget priorities for government funding of schools, colleges, universities, other education providers or government agencies may have a material adverse effect on our revenue.

Our customers include primary and secondary schools, colleges, universities, other education providers and, to a lesser extent, government agencies, each of which depends heavily on government funding. The effects and duration of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which has resulted in worldwide disruptions in supply chains and economic recession, are as yet unknown. We anticipate that the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting economic recession could cause a substantial disruption in, decrease or stagnation of, spending and budget priorities for government funding of schools, colleges, universities and other education providers and government agencies. The economy had only recently experienced a similar disruption from the worldwide recession of 2008 and subsequent sovereign debt and global financial crisis, which resulted in substantial declines in the revenues and fiscal capacity of many national, federal, state, provincial and local governments. Like in the 2008 financial crisis, where many of those governments have reacted to the decreases in revenues by cutting funding to educational institutions, we anticipate that governments and governmental entities will react similarly to the economic crisis and resulting decreases in revenue caused by the COVID-19 pandemic by cutting funding to educational institutions. If our products are not a high priority expenditure for such institutions, or if such institutions allocate expenditures to substitute alternative technologies, we could lose revenue.

Any additional decrease in, stagnation of or adverse change in national, federal, state, provincial or local funding for primary and secondary schools, colleges, universities, or other education providers or for government agencies that use our products could cause our current and prospective customers to further reduce their purchases of our products, which could cause us to lose additional revenue. In addition, a specific reduction in governmental funding support for products such as ours could also cause us to lose revenue.

26

If our products fail to comply with consumer product or environmental laws, it could materially affect our financial performance.

Because we sell products used by children in classrooms and because our products are subject to environmental regulations in some jurisdictions in which we conduct business and sell our products, we are and will be required to comply with a variety of product safety, product testing and environmental regulations, including compliance with applicable laws and standards with respect to lead content and other child safety and environmental issues. If our products do not meet applicable safety or regulatory standards, we could experience lost sales, diverted resources and increased costs, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Events that give rise to actual, potential or perceived product safety or environmental concerns could expose us to government enforcement action or private litigation and result in product recalls and other liabilities. In addition, negative consumer perceptions regarding the safety of our products could cause negative publicity and harm our reputation.

Risks Related to our Foreign Operations.

Operations

We are subject to risks inherent ininherently related to our foreign operations.

Sales outside the US represented 64%49% of our revenues for the year ended December 31, 2020.2023. We have committed, and may continue to commit, significant resources to our international operations and sales and marketing activities.

We are

Our significant foreign operations subject us to several risks associated withrelated to these international business activities that may increase costs, lengthen sales cycles and require significant management attention. International operations carry certain risks and associated costs, such as the complexities and expense of administering a business abroad, complications in compliance with, and unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, foreign laws, international import and export legislation, trading and investment policies, exchange controls, tariffs and other trade barriers, difficulties in collecting accounts receivable, potential adverse tax consequences, uncertainties of laws, difficulties in protecting, maintaining or enforcing intellectual property rights, difficulty in managing a geographically dispersed workforce in compliance with diverse local laws and customs, and other factors, depending upon the country involved. Moreover, local laws and customs in many countries differ significantly and compliance with the laws of multiple jurisdictions can be complex, difficult and costly. We cannot assureensure that risks inherent in our foreign operations will not have a material adverse effect on our business.

We must comply with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

We are required to comply with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which prohibits U.S. companies from engaging in bribery of or other prohibited payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business and requires that we maintain adequate financial records and internal controls to prevent such prohibited payments. Our international operations are managed by the Sahara team who are required to comply with the UKU.K. Bribery Act 2010 which goes further than current USU.S. legislation where the Bribery Act is not limited to foreign officials but also includes customers and includes all form of inducement and incentives; the same standard is expected of all our Sahara employees of other European countries where similar legislation is in force under EU-Law Corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft and other fraudulent practices may occur in countries where we do business. If our competitors engage in these practices, they may receive preferential treatment from personnel of some companies, giving our competitors an advantage in securing business or from government officials who might give them priority in obtaining new business, which would put us at a disadvantage. If our employees or other agents are found to have engaged in such practices, we could suffer severe penalties.

Our worldwide operations will subject us to income taxation in many jurisdictions, and we must exercise significant judgment to determine our worldwide financial provision for income taxes. That determination ultimately is an estimate, and, accordingly, we cannot assure that our historical income tax provisions and accruals will be adequate.

We are subject to income taxation in the United States and numerous other jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in determining our worldwide provision for income taxes. In the ordinary course of our business, there are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Although we believe our tax estimates are reasonable, we cannot assure you that the final determination of any tax audits and litigation will not be materially different from that which is reflected in our historical income tax provisions and accruals. Should additional taxes be assessed
27

Table of Contents
against us as a result of an audit or litigation, there could be a material adverse effect on our current and future results and financial condition.

Certain of our subsidiaries provide products to and may from time to time undertake certain significant transactions with us and our other subsidiaries in different jurisdictions. In general, cross bordercross-border transactions between related parties and, in particular, related party financing transactions, are subject to close review by tax authorities. Moreover, several jurisdictions in which we operate have tax laws with detailed transfer pricing rules that require all transactions with nonresident related parties to be priced using arm’s-length pricing principles and require the existence of contemporaneous documentation to support such pricing. A tax authority in one or more jurisdictions could challenge the validity of our related party transfer pricing policies. If in the future any taxation authorities are successful in challenging our financing or transfer pricing policies, our income tax expense may be adversely affected and we could become subject to interest and penalty charges, which may harm our business, financial condition and operating results.

If we are unable to ship and transport components and final products efficiently and economically across long distances and borders, our business would be harmed.

We transport significant volumes of components and finished products across long distances and international borders. Any increases in our transportation costs, as a result of increases in the price of oil or otherwise, would increase our costs and the final prices of our products to our customers. In addition, any increases in customs or tariffs, as a result of changes to existing trade agreements between countries or otherwise, could increase our costs or the final cost of our products to our customers or decrease our margins. Such increases could harm our competitive position and could have a material adverse effect on our business. The laws governing customs and tariffs in many countries are complex and often include substantial penalties for non-compliance. Disputes may arise and could subject us to material liabilities and have a material adverse effect on our business.

If our procedures to ensure compliance with export control laws are ineffective, our business could be harmed.

Our extensive foreign operations and sales are subject to far reaching and complex export control laws and regulations in the United States and elsewhere. Violations of those laws and regulations could have material negative consequences for us including large fines, criminal sanctions, prohibitions on participating in certain transactions and government contracts, sanctions on other companies if they continue to do business with us and adverse publicity.

We will be exposed to fluctuations in foreign currencies that may materially adversely affect our results of operations.

Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Sahara Holdings Ltd. consolidates results using the British pound (with principal functional currencies in British pound, Euro and U.S. dollar) and Boxlight Latin America uses the Mexican Peso as functional currency to report revenue and expenses. As a result, we will be exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations when we translate the financial statements of the of our group companies into U.S. dollars in consolidation. If there is a change in foreign currency exchange rates, the translation of the of any of the group companiescompanie's financial statements into U.S. dollars will lead to a translation gain or loss which is recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. In addition, we may have certain monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in currencies other than the relevant entity’s functional currency. To the extent the U.S. dollar strengthens or weakens against the certain foreign currencies then the translation of foreign currency denominated transactions will result in a change to reported revenue, operating expenses and net income for subsidiary operations. We have not entered into agreements or purchased instruments to hedge our exchange rate risks, although we may do so in the future. The availability and effectiveness of any hedging transaction may be limited, and we may not be able to successfully hedge fully our exchange rate risks.

We monitor our foreign exchange exposures, and these activities mitigate, but do not eliminate, our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. As a result, exchange rate fluctuations may materially adversely affect our operating results in future periods.

Unstable market and economic conditions may have serious adverse consequences on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The global economy, including credit and financial markets, has experienced extreme volatility and disruptions, including severely diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, declines in economic growth, increases in unemployment rates, increases in inflation rates and uncertainty about economic stability. Any such volatility and disruptions may have adverse consequences on us or the third parties upon whom we rely.
28

Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property and Technology

Defects in our products can be difficult to detect before shipment. If defects occur, they could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our products are highly complex and sophisticated and, from time to time, have contained and may continue to contain design defects or software “bugs” or failures that are difficult to detect and correct in advance of shipping.

The occurrence of errors and defects in our products could result in loss of, or delay in, market acceptance of our products, including harm to our brand. Correcting such errors and failures in our products could require significant expenditure of capital by us. In addition, we are rapidly developing and introducing new products, and new products may have higher rates of errors and defects than our established products. The Boxlight Group has historically provided product warranties between one and five years, and the failure of our products to operate as described could give rise to warranty claims. The consequences of such errors, failures and other defects and claims could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and our reputation.

We may not be able to obtain patents or other intellectual property rights necessary to protect our proprietary technology and business.

Our commercial success depends to a significant degree upon our ability to develop new or improved technologies and products, and to obtain patents or other intellectual property rights or statutory protection for these technologies and products in the United States and other countries. We will seek to patent concepts, components, processes, designs and methods, and other inventions and technologies that we consider have commercial value or that will likely give us a technological advantage. Boxlight own rights in patents and patent applications for technologies relating to interactive displays and other complementary products in the United States and other countries such as Germany, Mexico, Israel, Japan, Taiwan and China. Despite devoting resources to the research and development of proprietary technology, we may not be able to develop technology that is patentable or protectable. Patents may not be issued in connection with pending patent applications, and claims allowed may not be sufficient to allow them to use the inventions that they create exclusively. Furthermore, any patents issued could be challenged, re-examined, held invalid or unenforceable or circumvented and may not provide sufficient protection or a competitive advantage. In addition, despite efforts to protect and maintain patents, competitors and other third parties may be able to design around their patents or develop products similar to our products that are not within the scope of their patents. Finally, patents provide certain statutory protection only for a limited period of time that varies depending on the jurisdiction and type of patent. The statutory protection term of certain of our material patents may expire soon and, thereafter, the underlying technology of such patents can be used by any third-party including competitors.

Prosecution and protection of the rights sought in patent applications and patents can be costly and uncertain, often involve complex legal and factual issues and consume significant time and resources. In addition, the breadth of claims allowed in our patents, their enforceability and our ability to protect and maintain them cannot be predicted with any certainty. The laws of certain countries may not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. Even if our patents are held to be valid and enforceable in a certain jurisdiction, any legal proceedings that we may initiate against third parties to enforce such patents will likely be expensive, take significant time and divert management’s attention from other business matters. We cannot assure that any of the issued patents or pending patent applications will provide any protectable, maintainable or enforceable rights or competitive advantages to us.

In addition to patents, we will rely on a combination of copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets and other related laws and confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect, maintain and enforce our proprietary technology and intellectual property rights in the United States, the United Kingdom, Mexico, Australia, Malaysia, Canada, Turkey Sweden, Finland, Germany, Holland, and China. However, our ability to protect our brands by registering certain trademarks may be limited. In addition, while we will generally enter into confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements with our employees, consultants, contract manufacturers, distributors and resellers and with others to attempt to limit access to and distribution of our proprietary and confidential information, it is possible that:

misappropriation of our proprietary and confidential information, including technology, will nevertheless occur;
our confidentiality agreements will not be honored or may be rendered unenforceable;
third parties will independently develop equivalent, superior or competitive technology or products;
disputes will arise with our current or future strategic licensees, customers or others concerning the ownership, validity, enforceability, use, patentability or registrability of intellectual property; or
unauthorized disclosure of our know-how, trade secrets or other proprietary or confidential information will occur.

we cannot assure that we will be successful in protecting, maintaining or enforcing our intellectual property rights. If we are unsuccessful in protecting, maintaining or enforcing our intellectual property rights, then our business, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected, which could:

adversely affect our relationships with current or future distributors and resellers of our products;
adversely affect our reputation with customers;
be time-consuming and expensive to evaluate and defend;
cause product shipment delays or stoppages;
divert management’s attention and resources;
subject us to significant liabilities and damages;
require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements; or
require us to cease certain activities, including the sale of products.

require us to cease certain activities, including the sale of products.
If it is determined that we have infringed, violated or are infringing or violating a patent or other intellectual property right of any other person or if we are found liable in respect of any other related claim, then, in addition to being liable for potentially substantial damages, we may be prohibited from developing, using, distributing, selling or commercializing certain of our technologies and products unless we obtain a license from the holder of the patent or other intellectual property right. We cannot assure that we will be able to obtain any such license on a timely basis or on commercially favorable terms, or that any such licenses will be available, or that workarounds will be feasible and cost-efficient. If we do not obtain such a license or find a cost-efficient workaround, our business, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected, and we could be required to cease related business operations in some markets and restructure our business to focus on our continuing operations in other markets.

Our business may suffer if it is alleged or determined that our technology or another aspect of our business infringes the intellectual property of others.

The markets in which we will compete are characterized by the existence of many patents and trade secrets and also by litigation based on allegations of infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. Moreover, in recent years, individuals and groups have purchased patents and other intellectual property assets for the purpose of making claims of infringement to extract settlements from companies like ours. Also, third parties may make infringement claims against us that relate to technology developed and owned by one of our suppliers for which our suppliers may or may not indemnify us. Even if we are indemnified against such costs, the indemnifying party may be unable to uphold its contractual obligations and determining the extent such of such obligations could require additional litigation. Claims of intellectual property infringement against us or our suppliers might require us to redesign our products, enter into costly settlements or license agreements, pay costly damage awards or face a temporary or permanent injunction prohibiting us from marketing or selling our products or services. If we cannot or do not license the infringed intellectual property on reasonable terms or at all, or substitute similar intellectual property from another source, our revenue and operating results could be adversely impacted. Additionally, our customers and distributors may not purchase our offerings if they are concerned that they may infringe third partythird-party intellectual property rights. Responding to such claims, regardless of their merit, can be time consuming, costly to defend in litigation, divert management’s attention and resources, damage our reputation and cause us to incur significant expenses. The occurrence of any of these events may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

If we are unable to anticipate consumer preferences and successfully develop attractive products, we might not be able to maintain or increase our revenue or achieve profitability.

Our success depends on our ability to identify and originate product trends as well as to anticipate and react to changing demands and preferences of customers in a timely manner. If we are unable to introduce new products or technologies in a timely manner or our new products or technologies are not accepted by our customers, our competitors may introduce more attractive products which would adversely impact our competitive position. Failure to respond in a timely manner to changing consumer preferences could lead to, among other things, lower revenues and excess inventory positions of outdated products.

We may be unable to keep pace with changes in technology as our business and market strategy evolves.

We will need to respond to technological advances and emerging industry standards in a cost-effective and timely manner in order to remain competitive. The need to respond to technological changes may require us to make substantial, unanticipated expenditures. There can be no assurance that we will be able to respond successfully to technological change.

Risks Related to Our Class A Common Stock

We may not be able to maintain a listing of our Class A common stock on Nasdaq Capital Market, or Nasdaq.

Because our Class A common stock is listed on Nasdaq, we must meet certain financial and liquidity criteria to maintain such listing. At present, we are in the initial period of 180-day compliance period provided by Nasdaq relating to our failure to maintain the $1.00 minimum bid price requirement. On February 29, 2024, we received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of the Nasdaq notifying us that based upon the closing bid price for the last 30 consecutive business days, we no longer meet the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Bid Price Rule”). We have been provided an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until August 26, 2024, to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. If we are not in compliance with the Bid Price Rule by August 26, 2024, we may be afforded a second 180 calendar day period to regain compliance.
We will continue to actively monitor the closing bid price of our Class A common stock and will evaluate available options, including, without limitation, seeking to effect a reverse stock split, in order to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. If we fail to regain compliance, or otherwise violate or fail to meet any Nasdaq listing requirements, our Class A common stock may be delisted. In addition, our Board may determine that the cost of maintaining our listing on a national securities exchange outweighs the benefits of such listing. A delisting of our Class A common stock from Nasdaq may materially impair our stockholders’ ability to buy and sell our Class A common stock and could have an adverse effect on the market price of, and the efficiency of the trading market for, our Class A common stock. In the event our stock is delisted from Nasdaq, whether by choice or otherwise, the delisting of our Class A common stock could significantly impair our ability to raise capital and stockholder value.
Future sales of our Class A common stock could adversely affect our share price, and any additional capital raised by us through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities may dilute your ownership in usour securities and may adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock.

We believe that our existing working capital, expected cash flow from operations and other available cash resources will enable us to meet our working capital requirements for at least the next 12 months. However, the

The development and marketing of new products and the expansion of distribution channels require a significant commitment of resources. From time to time, we may seek additional equity or debt financing to finance working capital requirements, continue our expansion, develop new products or make acquisitions or other investments. In addition, if our business plans change, general economic, financial or political conditions in our industry change, or other circumstances arise that have a material effect on our cash flow, the anticipated cash needs of our business, as well as our conclusions as to the adequacy of our available sources of capital, could change significantly. Any of these events or circumstances could result in significant additional funding needs, requiring us to raise additional capital. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity shares, preferred shares or debt securities, the terms of such securities could impose restrictions on our operations and would reduce the percentage ownership of our existing stockholders. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, or at all, we may be unable to expand our business or to develop new business at the rate desired and our results of operations may suffer.

The market price of our Class A common stock may be volatile, which could cause the value of our common stock to fluctuate and possibly decline significantly.

The market price of our Class A common stock may be highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations. OurIn 2023, the price of our Class A common stock declined from $2.48 on January 3, 2023 to $1.07 per share on December 29, 2023. As of March 8, 2024, our Class A common stock closed at $0.92 per share. In addition, our financial performance, government regulatory action, tax laws and market conditions in general, including the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and itsconflicts between Ukraine and Russia, and Israel and Hamas, and their resulting impact on the economy at large, could have a significant impact on the future market price of our Class A common stock. Some of the factors that could negatively affect our share price or result in fluctuations in the price of our common stock include:

our operating and financial performance and prospects;
our quarterly or annual earnings or those of other companies in our industry;
the public’s reaction to our press releases, our other public announcements and our filings with the SEC;
changes in, or failure to meet, earnings estimates or recommendations by research analysts who track our Class A common stock or the stock of other companies in our industry;
the failure of analysts to cover our Class A common stock;
strategic actions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions or restructurings;
announcements by us, our competitors or our vendors of significant contracts, acquisitions, joint marketing relationships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
new laws or regulations or new interpretations of existing laws or regulations applicable to our business;
changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles;
announcements by third parties or governmental entities of significant claims or proceedings against us;
new laws and governmental regulations, or other regulatory developments, applicable to our industry;
changes in general conditions in the United States and global economies or financial markets, including both social and economic conditions resulting from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, war, incidents of terrorism or responses to such events;

changes in government spending levels on education;
changes in key personnel;
sales of common stock by us, members of our management team or our stockholders;
the granting or exercise of employee stock options or other equity awards;
the volume of trading in our Class A common stock; and
the realization of any risks described in this section under the caption “Risk Factors.”

the realization of any risks described in this Item 1A under the caption “Risk Factors”.
Furthermore, the stock market has recently experienced extreme volatility that, in some cases, has been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market and industry fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance.

In the past, following periods of market volatility, stockholders have instituted securities class action litigation. If we were involved in securities litigation, it could have a substantial cost and divert resources and the attention of executive management from our business regardless of the outcome of such litigation.

Our Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws and Nevada law may have anti-takeover effects.

Our Articles of Incorporation authorizesauthorize the issuance of common stock and preferred stock. Each share of Class A common stock entitles the holder to one vote on all matters to be voted upon by stockholders, and the Class B common stock has no vote, except as required by law. In addition, our board of directors (“Board”)the Board has the authority to issue additional shares of preferred stock and to determine the price, rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of those shares without any further vote or action by the stockholders. The rights of the holders of common stock will be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of any preferred stock that may be issued in the future. The ability of our Board to issue additional shares of preferred stock could make it more difficult for a third partythird-party to acquire a majority of our voting stock. Other provisions of our Bylaws also may have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing a merger, tender offer or proxy contest, which could have an adverse effect on the market price of our Class A common stock.

In addition, certain provisions of Nevada law applicable to our company could also delay or make more difficult a merger, tender offer or proxy contest involving our company, including Sections 78.411 through 78.444 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, which prohibit a Nevada corporation from engaging in any business combination with any “interested stockholder” (as defined in the statute) for a period of two years unless certain conditions are met. In addition, our senior management is entitled to certain payments upon a change in control and certain of the stock options and restricted shares we have granted provide for the acceleration of vesting in the event of a change in control of our company.

Affiliates of Everest Display, Inc. hold a significant percentage of our Class A common stock, and their interests may not align with the interests of our other stockholders.

K Laser and other stockholders and affiliates of Everest Display, Inc., a Taiwan corporation (“EDI”) owned approximately 10.0% of our issued and outstanding Class A common stock as of December 31, 2020. The sale of all or any meaningful portion of the shares owned by such stockholders could have a material adverse effect on the future market price of our Class A common stock.

This significant concentration of share ownership may adversely affect the trading price of our Class A common stock because investors often perceive a disadvantage in owning shares in a company with one or several controlling stockholders. This concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of our company which could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their shares as part of a sale of our company and might reduce the price of our Class A common stock. Furthermore, our directors and officers, as a group, have the ability to significantly influence or control the outcome of all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions, such as mergers, consolidations or the sale of substantially all of our assets. Although our directors owe fiduciary duties to us and our shareholders, including the duties of loyalty, our directors that serve as directors, officers, partners or employees of companies that we do business with also owe fiduciary duties or other obligations to such other companies or to the investors in their funds. The duties owed to us could conflict with the duties such directors owe to these other companies or investors.

Company.

We have no intention of declaring dividends in the foreseeable future.

The decision to pay cash dividends on our Class A common stock rests with our Board and will depend on our earnings, unencumbered cash, capital requirements and financial condition. We do not anticipate declaring any dividends in the foreseeable future, as we intend to use any excess cash to fund our operations. Investors in our Class A common stock should not expect to receive dividend income on their investment, and investors will be dependent on the appreciation of our Class A common stock to earn a return on their investment.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about us, or if they adversely change their recommendations regarding our Class A common stock, then our stock price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our Class A common stock will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us, our industry and our market. If no analyst elects to cover us and publish research or reports about us, the market for our Class A common stock could be severely limited and our stock price could be adversely affected. In addition, if one or more analysts ceases coverage of us or fails to regularly publish reports on us, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline. If one or more analysts who elect to cover us adversely change their recommendations regarding our Class A common stock, our stock price could decline.

We may be exposed to risks relating to evaluations of controls required by Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

Pursuant to Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, our management is required to report on and our independent registered public accounting firm is required to attest to, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Although we prepare our financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, our internal accounting controls may not meet all standards applicable to companies with publicly traded securities. If we fail to implement any required improvements to our disclosure controls and procedures, we may be obligated to report control deficiencies and our independent registered public accounting firm may not be able to certify the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting.deficiencies. In either case, we could become subject to regulatory sanction or investigation. Further, these outcomes could damage investor confidence in the accuracy and reliability of our financial statements.

If we fail to develop, implement and maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, the accuracy and timing of our financial reporting in future periods may be adversely affected.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act and related rules and regulations require that management report annually on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and assess the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures on a quarterly basis. Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide timely and reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. We have identified control deficiencies that constituted a material weakness in our internal controls and accounting processes are insufficient,procedures in the past and may experience a material weakness in future years. If we may not detect in a timely manner misstatements that could occur infail to maintain adequate internal controls, our financial statements in amounts thatmay not accurately reflect our financial condition. Any material misstatements could be material.

Asrequire a public company, we have to devote substantial efforts to the reporting obligations and internal controls required of a public company, which result in substantial costs. A failure to properly meet these obligations could cause investors to lose confidence in us and have a negative impact on the market pricerestatement of our shares. We devote significant resources to the documentation, testing and continued improvement of our operational andconsolidated financial systems for the foreseeable future. These improvements and efforts with respect to our accounting processes that we continue to make may not be sufficient to ensure that we maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future. Any failure to implement required, new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, couldstatements, cause us to fail to meet our reporting

obligations in the United States or result in misstatements in our financial statements in amounts that could be material. Insufficient internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, leading to a decline in the market value of our securities.
Unstable market and economic conditions and potential disruptions in the credit markets may adversely affect our business, including the availability and cost of short-term funds for liquidity requirements and our ability to meet long-term commitments, which could have a negative effectadversely affect our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
If internally generated funds are not available from operations, we may be required to rely on the trading price ofbanking and credit markets to meet our sharesfinancial commitments and may expose usshort-term liquidity needs. Our access to litigation risk.

As a public company, we are requiredfunds under our revolving credit facility or pursuant to document and test our internal control proceduresarrangements with other financial institutions is dependent on the financial institution’s ability to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley, which requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. During the course of our testing, we may identify deficiencies which wemeet funding commitments. Financial institutions may not be able to remediatemeet their funding commitments if they experience shortages of capital and liquidity or if they experience high volumes of borrowing requests from other borrowers within a short period of time.

In addition, the global credit and financial markets have recently experienced extreme volatility and disruptions, including severely diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in timeconsumer confidence, declines in economic growth, inflationary pressure and interest rate changes and uncertainty about economic stability. More recently, the closures of Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank and First Republic Bank and their placement into receivership with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) created bank-specific and broader financial institution liquidity risk and concerns. Future adverse developments with respect to meet our deadline for compliance with Section 404. Wespecific financial institutions or the broader financial services industry may notlead to market-wide liquidity shortages, impair the ability of companies to access near-term working capital needs, and create additional market and economic uncertainty. There can be able to conclude on an ongoing basisno assurance that we have effective internal control overfuture credit and financial reportingmarket instability and a deterioration in accordance with Section 404. If we are unable to conclude that we have effective internal control over financial reporting, then investors could lose confidence in our reportedeconomic conditions will not occur. Our general business strategy may be adversely affected by any such economic downturn, liquidity shortages, volatile business environment or continued unpredictable and unstable market conditions. If the equity and credit markets deteriorate, or if adverse developments are experienced by financial information, whichinstitutions, it may cause short-term liquidity risk and also make any necessary debt or equity financing more difficult, more costly and more dilutive. Failure to secure any necessary financing in a timely manner and on favorable terms could have a negativematerial adverse effect on the tradingour growth strategy, financial performance and stock price and could require us to delay or abandon clinical development plans. In addition, there is a risk that one or more of our shares.

For as long ascurrent service providers, financial institutions, manufacturers and other partners may be adversely affected by the foregoing risks, which could directly affect our ability to attain our operating goals on schedule and on budget.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
None.
ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY
As a regular part of our ordinary business operations, we collect and store data, including information necessary for our operations, information from our customers, employees, and our business partners. We recognize these networks and systems may be subject to increasing and continually evolving cybersecurity risks. Our Board is responsible for overseeing risk management and Cybersecurity is an integral part of the Company's overall risk management program. Our risk management process is designed to identify, prioritize, and monitor risks that could affect our ability to execute our corporate strategy and fulfill our business objectives and to appropriately mitigate such risks.
As part of our risk management processes, we are an “emerging growth company,”developing risk assessments to identify the probability, immediacy, and potential magnitude of information security risks. Our internal experts regularly conduct audits and tests of our information systems, and our cybersecurity program is periodically assisted by established, independent third-party consultants, who provide assistance through tabletop and other preparedness exercises. Additionally, we willreview regular publications on cyber awareness and conduct ongoing simulated phishing exercises. We use the findings from these and other processes to improve our information security practices, procedures and technologies.
While we have not be requiredyet experienced any material impacts from a cyber-attack, any one or more future cyber-attacks could materially adversely impact the Company, including a loss of trust among our customers, departures of key employees, general diminishment of our global reputation and financial losses from remediation actions, loss of business or potential litigation or regulatory liability. Further, evolving market dynamics are increasingly driving heightened cybersecurity protections and mandating cybersecurity standards for our products, and we may incur additional costs to address these increased risks and to comply with certain reporting requirements, including those relating to accounting standards and disclosure about our executive compensation, that apply to some other public companies.

As an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements. We are an emerging growth company until the earliest of:

the last day of the fiscal year during which we have total annual gross revenues of $1 billion or more;
the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of following our initial public offering in 2017;
the date on which we have, during the previous 3-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt; or
the date on which we are deemed a “large accelerated filer” as defined under the federal securities laws.

For so long as we remain an “emerging growth company,” we will not be required to:

have an auditor report on our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;
comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (auditor discussion and analysis);
submit certain executive compensation matters to shareholders advisory votes pursuant to the “say on frequency” and “say on pay” provisions (requiring a non-binding shareholder vote to approve compensation of certain executive officers) and the “say on golden parachute” provisions (requiring a non-binding shareholder vote to approve golden parachute arrangements for certain executive officers in connection with mergers and certain other business combinations) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010; and
include detailed compensation discussion and analysis in our filings under the Exchange Act and instead may provide a reduced level of disclosure concerning executive compensation.

In addition, the JOBS Act provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantagesuch demands.

34

Table of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. We have elected to take advantage of the extended transition period, which allows us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards until those standards apply to private companies. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to public companies that comply with new or revised accounting standards.

Because of these exemptions, some investors may find our Class A common stock less attractive, which may result in a less active trading market for our Class A common stock, and our stock price may be more volatile.

We may not be able to maintain a listing of our Class A common stock on Nasdaq.

Because our Class A common stock is listed on Nasdaq, we must meet certain financial and liquidity criteria to maintain such listing. If we violate or fail to meet any Nasdaq listing requirements, our Class A common stock may be delisted. In addition, our Board may determine that the cost of maintaining our listing on a national securities exchange outweighs the benefits of such listing. A delisting of our Class A common stock from Nasdaq may materially impair our stockholders’ ability to buy and sell our Class A common stock and could have an adverse effect on the market price of, and the efficiency of the trading market for, our Class A common stock. In the event our stock is delisted from Nasdaq, whether by choice or otherwise, the delisting of our Class A common stock could significantly impair our ability to raise capital and stockholder value.

Use of Sahara Presentation Systems PLC (“Sahara”), on September 25, 2021, the Company issued 1,586,620 shares of Series B convertible redeemable preferred stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) and 1,320,850 shares of Series C convertible redeemable preferred stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”).

See further discussion of the features of the preferred shares in Note 12.

On March 24, 2021 we entered into a share redemption and conversion agreement with the former Sahara shareholders who own approximately 96% of our Series B and Series C preferred stock. Under the agreement, we agreed to redeem and purchase from such preferred stockholders on or before June 30, 2021 all of the shares of Series B preferred stock for £11,508,495 (or approximately $15,876,084) being the stated or liquidation value of the Series B preferred stock plus (b) accrued dividends from January 1, 2021 to the date of purchase. In addition, the holders of 96% of the Series C preferred stock agreed to convert those shares into 7,630,699 shares of our Class A Common Stock at a conversion price of $1.66 per share. In the event that we do not complete the conversion and redemption by June 30, 2021, and the Sahara shareholders do not agree to an extension, the redemption and conversion agreement will terminate without liability by any party.

Our Acquisition Strategy and Challenges

Our growth strategy includes acquiring assets and technologies of companies that have products, technologies, industry specializations or geographic coverage that extend or complement our existing business. The process to undertake a potential acquisition is time-consuming and costly. WePrior to completing any acquisition, we expect to expend significant resources to undertake business, financial and legal due diligence on our potential acquisition targets, as a result, and there is no guarantee that we will complete any acquisition that we pursue.

We believe we can achieve significant cost-savings by merging the operations of the companies we acquire and after their acquisition leverage the opportunity to reduce costs through the following methods:

Staff reductions – consolidating resources, such as accounting, marketing and human resources.
Economies of scale – improved purchasing power with a greater ability to negotiate prices with suppliers.
Improved market reach and industry visibility – increase in customer base and entry into new markets.

Staff reductions – consolidating resources, such as accounting, marketing and human resources.
Economies of scale – improved purchasing power with a greater ability to negotiate prices with suppliers.
Improved market reach and industry visibility – increase in customer base and entry into new markets.
As a result, we believe that an analysis of the historical costs and expenses of our Target Sellers (a (a companythat is the subject of an attempted acquisition) prior to their acquisition will not provide guidance as to the anticipated results after acquisition. We anticipate that we will be able to achieve significant reductions in our costs of revenue and selling and, general and administrative expenses from the levels currently incurred by the Target Sellers operating independently, thereby increasing our EBITDA and cash flows.

Components of our Results of Operations and Financial Condition

Revenue

Our revenue is comprised

The Company’s sales of product revenue,interactive devices, including panels, whiteboards and other interactive devices generally include hardware maintenance services, a license to software, revenue,and the provision of related software maintenance. In most cases, interactive devices are sold with hardware maintenance services.
The Company’s installation, revenuetraining and professional development revenue.

Product and Software revenues. Product and software revenues are derived from the sale of our interactive projectors, flat panels, peripherals and accessories, along with other third-party products, directly to our customers, as well as through our network of domestic and international distributors.
Installation revenue. We receive revenue from installation services that we outsource to third parties.
Professional development revenue. We receive revenue from providing professional development services through third parties and our network of distributors.

service include third-party products and services and are generally sold separately from the Company’s products.

Cost of revenue

Our cost of revenue is comprised of the following:

third-party logistics costs;
costs to purchase components and finished goods directly;
inbound and outbound freight costs and duties;
costs associated with the repair of products under warranty;
write-downs of inventory carrying value to adjust for excess and obsolete inventory and periodic physical inventory counts;

customs expense.

We outsource some of our warehouse operations and order fulfillment and we purchase products from related entities and third parties. Our product costs vary directly with volume and based on the costs of underlying product components as well as the prices we negotiate with our contract manufacturers. Shipping costs fluctuate with volume as well as with the method of shipping chosen in order to meet customer demand. As a global company with suppliers centered in Asia and customers located worldwide, we have used, and may in the future use, air shipping to deliver our products directly to our customers. Air shipping is more costly than sea or ground shipping or other delivery options. We primarily use air shipping to meet the demand of our products during peak seasonsoptions and new product launches.it is rarely used as a result. The Company did not experience material delays in shipping during 20202023 or 2022 that materially negatively impacted our revenues.

Gross profit and gross profit margin

Our gross profit and gross profit margin have been, and may in the future be, influenced by several factors including: product, channel and geographical revenue mix; changes in product costs related to the release of projectornewer models; component, contract manufacturing and supplier pricing, and foreign currency exchange.exchange and most recently, increased shipping costs due to the pandemic and global unrest. As we primarily procure our product components and manufacture our products in Asia, our suppliers incur many costs, including labor costs, in other currencies. To the extent that exchange rates move unfavorably for our suppliers, they may seek to pass these additional costs on to us, which could have a material impact on our future average selling prices and unit costs. Gross profit and gross profit margin may fluctuate over time based on the factors described above.

35

Operating expenses

We classify our operating expenses into two categories: research and development and general and administrative.

Research and development. Research and development expense consists primarily of personnel related costs, prototype and sample costs, design costs and global product certifications mostly for wireless certifications.

General and administrative. General and administrative expense consists of personnel related costs, which include salaries, as well as the costs of professional services, such as accounting and legal, facilities, information technology, depreciation and amortization and other administrative expenses. General and administrative expense may fluctuate as a percentage of revenue, notably in the second and third quarters of our fiscal year when we have historically experienced our highest levels of revenue.

Other income (expense), net

Other income (expense), net primarily consists of interest expense associated with our debt financing arrangements, gains (losses) on the settlements of debt, and trade payable obligations exchanged for common shares, and the effects of changes in the fair value of derivative liabilities.

Income tax expense

We are subject to income taxes in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Mexico, Sweden, Finland, Holland, Australia, Denmark and Germany where we do business. The United Kingdom, Mexico, Sweden, Finland, Holland and Germany, Australia, Canada and Denmark have a statutory tax rate different from that in the United States. Additionally, certain of our international earnings are also taxable in the United States. Accordingly, our effective tax rates will vary depending on the relative proportion of foreign to U.S. income, the absorption of foreign tax credits, changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities and changes in tax laws. We regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from the examination of our tax returns by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, and other tax authorities to determine the adequacy of our income tax reserves and expense. Should actual events or results differ from our current expectations, charges or credits to our income tax expense may become necessary. Any such adjustments could have a significant impact on our results of operations.

To provide investors with additional insight and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and decision-making surrounding operations, we supplement our consolidated financial statements presented on a basis consistent with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) with EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, both non-GAAP financial measures of earnings.

EBITDA represents net income (loss)loss before income tax expense, interest income, interest expense, net, and depreciation and amortization.amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA, plusadjusted for stock compensation expense and non-recurring expenses and minus changes in fair value of derivative liabilities.liabilities, purchase accounting impact for fair valuing inventory and deferred revenue, net gain on settlement of debt, and impairment of goodwill. Our management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as financial measures to evaluate the profitability and efficiency of our business model. We use these non-GAAP financial measures to assess the strength of the underlying operations of our business. These adjustments, and the non-GAAP financial measure that is derived from them, provide supplemental information to analyze our operations between periods and over time. We find this especially useful when reviewing results of operations, which include large non-cash amortizations of intangibles assets from acquisitions. Investors should consider our non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The following table contains reconciliations of net losses to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented.

Discussion of Effect of Seasonality on Financial Condition

Certain accounts on our balance sheets are subject to seasonal fluctuations. As our business and revenues grow, we expect these seasonal trends to be reduced. The bulk of our products are shipped to our educational customers prior to the beginning of the school year, usually in July, August, or September. To prepare for the upcoming school year, we generally build up inventories during the second quarter of the year. Therefore, inventories tend to be at the highest levels at that point in time. In the first quarter of the year, inventories tend to decline significantly as products are delivered to customers and we do not need the same inventory levels during the first quarter. Accounts receivable balances tend to be at the highest levels in the third quarter, in which we record the highest level of sales.

Due to travel restrictions and concerns for the safety for our employees during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we have temporarily eliminated all face-to-face meetings with customers and attendance at tradeshow events. In addition, we have limitations related to school access as a result of school closures. We are currently assessing the impact these changes will have on our peak season sales. Our initial assessment is that funding priority will be given to initiatives that provide for continuity of learning which may result in lower priority on total learning solution sales including hardware, software and teacher training.

We have been very proactive, and will continue to be proactive, in obtaining contracts during the fourth and first quarters that willof each year in order to help offset the seasonality of our business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2020,2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $13.5of $17.3 million, a working capital positionbalance of $21.0$54.1 million, and a current ratio of 1.53. This financial position represents a significant improvement from a year ago at2.17. At December 31, 2019 when2022, we had a working capital deficit of $(7.3) million and $1.2$14.6 million of cash and cash equivalents.

Cash provided by operating activities increased year over year as a result of a change in working capital management. We had net cash used in investing activities of $45.3$1.3 million duringand $1.2 million for the yearyears ended December 31, 2020,2023 and 2022, respectively.

Our liquidity needs are funded by our primary lender,operating cash flow and from a pre-existing accounts receivable financing arrangement with another lender who purchases 85% of the eligible accounts receivable of the Company, up to $6.0 million, with the right of recourse. Our accounts receivable and our ability to borrow against accounts receivable provides an additional source of liquidity as cash payments are collected from customers in the normal course of business. Our accounts receivable balance fluctuates throughout the year based on the seasonality of the business.

In the current COVID-19 pandemic environment, the availability of capital has been significantly reduced and the cost of capital has increased. Increasing our capital through equity issuance at this time could cause significant dilution to our existing stockholders as a result of diminished stock value due to market volatility and uncertainty arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the Company is confident that it will be able to manage through the current challenges in the equity and debt finance markets by managing payment terms with customers and vendors.

available cash. Our cash requirements consist primarily of day-to-day operating expenses, capital expenditures and contractual obligations with respect to facility leases and other operating leases. We lease all of our office facilities. We expect to make future payments on existing leases from cash generated from operations. We have limited credit available from our major vendors and are required to prepay for the majoritya percentage of our inventory purchases, which further constrains our cash liquidity.

The Company had an accumulated deficit of $47.5 million as of December 31,2020 and net cash used in operations of $4.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Recent Financing

Under the terms of the Lind Global SPA, inquarter.


In addition to the issuancecash flows generated by our ongoing operating activities we financed our operations during 2023 and 2022 with our Credit Facility with Whitehawk. Prior to April 24, 2023, we maintained a delayed draw term loan of which we had $7.5 million available.

On February 4, 2020, we and Lind Global Marco Fund, LP (the “Investor” or “Lind”) entered into a purchase agreement (the “2020 SPA”) pursuant to which we received $750,000 in exchange for the issuance to Lind of (1) an $825,000 convertible promissory note, payable at an 8% interest rate, compounded monthly (the “2020 Note”), (2) certain shares of restricted Company Class A common stock valued at $60,000, calculated based on the 20-day volume average weighted price of the Class A common stock for the period ended February 4, 2020, and (3) a commitment fee of $26,250. The Note matures over 24 months, with repayment to commence August 4, 2020, after which time the Company will be obligated to make monthly payments of $45,833 (the “Monthly Payments”), plus interest. Interest payments oweddraw eliminates further draws under the 2020 Note (the “Interest Payments”) accrue beginning on the one-month anniversary of the issuance of the Note, however such Interest Payments accruedterm loan agreement. The $3.0 million was repaid during the first six monthsthird quarter of 2023.


To the Note, after which time the Interest Payments, including such accrued Interest Payments, shall be payable on a monthly basis in either conversion shares or in cash. We may make the Monthly Payments and any Interest Payments in shares of the Company’s Class A common stock so long as such shares are either registered for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or may be sold without restriction pursuant to Rule 144 thereunder. As such, the Monthly Payments may be subject to reduction in any month by any amountsextent not previously converted into the Company’s Class A common stock. In connection with this transactionstock, the Company and Lind amended and restated the $4,400,000 note and the $1,375,000 note referred to below that we issued to Lind in March and December 2019, respectively, to provide that we would not make any payments under the Lind notes in the formoutstanding shares of Class A Common Stock if such payments could cause the Company to violate any rules of the Nasdaq Capital Market.

In addition, on February 4, 2020, we and Lind entered into a second amended and restated security agreement for purposes of amending and restating a prior security agreement, dated as of December 13, 2019. Also, Sallyport Commercial Finance, LLC, as first lien creditor, and Lind, as second lien creditor, entered into a second amended and restated intercreditor agreement for purposes of amending and restating the intercreditor agreement between the parties, dated as of December 13, 2019, in order to reaffirm and confirm the relative priority of each creditor’s respective security interests in our assets,

On December 13, 2019, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with Lind for $1,250,000 of working financing in exchange for the issuance of a $1,375,000 principal amount convertible secured Boxlight note with a maturity date of 24 months. The note is convertibleSeries B preferred stock became redeemable at the option of the Investor into our Class A voting common stockholders at any time or from time to time commencing on January 1, 2024 upon, 30 days’ prior written notice to the Company, for a fixed conversionredemption price, payable in cash, equal to the sum of $2.50 per share. We have the right to force the Investor to convert up to 50% of the outstanding amount of the note if the volume weighted average closing price of our Class A common stock trades above $5.00 for 30 consecutive days; and 100% of the outstanding amount of the note if the volume weighted average closing price of our Class A common stock trades above $6.25 for 30 consecutive days. At closing a total of $1,250,000 was funded under the note. We are required to make monthly interest payments on the note at the rate of 8% per annum and principal payments in 18 equal monthly instalments of $76,388 each. So long as shares of our Class A common stock are registered for resale under the Securities Act or may be sold without restriction on(a) ($10.00) multiplied by the number of shares of Series B preferred stock being redeemed (the “Redeemed Shares”), plus (b) all accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, on such Redeemed Shares. We may be required to seek alternative financing arrangements or mannerrestructure the terms of sale,the agreement with the Series B preferred shareholders on terms that are not favorable to us if cash and cash equivalents are not sufficient to fully redeem the Series B preferred shares. We are currently evaluating alternatives to refinance or restructure the Series B preferred shares including extending the maturity of the Series B preferred shares beyond the current optional conversion date.


Given the uncertainty surrounding global supply chains, global markets, and general global uncertainty as a result of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and Israel and Hamas and the continuing COVID-19 pandemic, the availability of debt and equity capital has been reduced and the cost of capital has increased. Furthermore, recent adverse developments affecting the financial services industry including events involving limited liquidity, defaults, non-performance or other adverse developments that affect financial institutions may lead to market-wide liquidity problems. This in turn could result in a reduction in our ability to access funding sources and credit arrangements in amounts adequate to finance our current and future business operations. Increasing our capital through equity issuance at this time could cause significant dilution to our existing stockholders. However, while there can be no guarantee we will be able to access capital when needed, we are confident that the Company will be able to manage through the current challenges in the equity and debt finance markets by managing payment terms with our customers and vendors.

Cash and cash equivalents, along with anticipated cash flows from operations, may not provide sufficient liquidity for our working capital needs, debt service requirements or to maintain minimum liquidity requirements under our Credit Agreement, and we may need to raise capital to meet current working capital requirements including maintaining sufficient inventory levels to meet future sales demand.

The Company’s financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of obligations in the normal course of business.

The Company was not in compliance with its Senior Leverage Ratio financial covenant under the Credit Agreement at September 30, 2023. The non-compliance was cured by the Company paying $4.3 million, inclusive of $0.3 million in prepayment penalties and interest in November 2023 in order to bring the Company into compliance with the Senior Leverage Ratio at September 30, 2023.

The Company was not in compliance with its financial covenant related to the Senior Leverage Ratio under the Credit Agreement at December 31, 2023. Although on March 14, 2024, the Loan Parties entered into the Fifth Amendment with the Collateral Agent and the Lender mainly for the purpose of (1) amending and restating the Senior Leverage Ratio and Minimum Liquidity (as defined in the Fifth Amendment), and (2) waiving any Event of Default that may have arisen directly as a result of the Financial Covenant Default (as defined in the Fifth Amendment), there can be no assurance that the Lender will not declare an event of default and acceleration of all of our obligations under the Credit Agreement in the event we are unable to get into full compliance with these covenants in the future. Following the Fifth Amendment to the Credit Agreement, the Senior Leverage ratio increased to 6.00 at March 31, 2024, remained at 2.00 at June 30, 2024 and 1.75 thereafter. Because of the significant decreases in the required Senior Leverage Ratio within the next twelve months, the Company’s current forecast projects the Company may not be able to maintain compliance with this ratio. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

In view of this matter, continuation as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to continue to achieve positive cash flow from operations, obtain waivers or other relief under the Credit Agreement for any future non-

compliance with the Senior Leverage Ratio, or refinance its Credit Agreement with a different lender on a basis with more favorable terms. The Company is actively working to refinance its debt with new lenders on terms more favorable to the Company. While the Company is confident in its ability to refinance its existing debt, it does not have written or executed agreements as of the issuance of this Form 10-K. The Company’s ability to refinance its existing debt is based upon credit markets and economic forces that are outside of its control. We believe we have the right to make interest payments in the form of additional shares of Class A common stock. We have the right to prepay the convertible note at any time with no penalty (the “Buy-Back Right”). Should we exercise our Buy-Back Right, Lind will have the option of converting 25% of the outstanding $1.4 million principal amount of the note into shares of our Class A common stock.

On March 22, 2019, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with Lind for a $4,000,000 ofgood working capital financing for Boxlight and its subsidiaries. The investment was in the form of a $4,400,000 principal amount convertible secured Boxlight noterelationship with a maturity date of 24 months. The note is convertible at the option of the Investor into our Class A voting common stock at a fixed conversion price of $4.00 per share. We have the right to force the Investor to convert up to 50% of the outstanding amount of the note if the volume weighted average closing price of our Class A common stock trades above $8.00 for 30 consecutive days; and 100% of the outstanding amount of the note if the volume weighted average closing price of our Class A common stock trades above $12.00 for 30 consecutive days. At closing a total of $4,000,000 was funded under the note. We are required to make monthly interest payments on the note at the rate of 8% per annum and principal payments in 18 equal monthly installments of $244,444.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity and capital resources.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles accepted in the United States. In connection with the preparation of our financial statements, we are required to make assumptions and estimates about future events and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the related disclosures. We base our assumptions, estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time our consolidated financial statements are prepared. On a regular basis, we review the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.

Our significant accounting policies are discussed in detail in detail Note 1 to the enclosedaccompanying consolidated financial statements, and briefly summarized below. We believe that the following accounting estimates are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results, and they require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, resulting from the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain:

1.Revenue recognition
2.Business Acquisitions
3.Goodwill and Intangible assets
4.Share-based Compensation

1.Revenue Recognition

2.Goodwill and Intangible assets
3.Share-based Compensation
4.Derivative Warrant Liabilities
5.Income Taxes
REVENUE RECOGNITION

In accordance with the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers) (“Topic 606”), the Company recognizes revenue at the amount to which it expects to be entitled when control of the products or services is transferred to its customers. Control is generally transferred when the Company has a present right to payment and the significant risks and rewards of ownership of products or services are transferred to its customers. Product revenue is derived from the sale of projectors, interactive panels, audio and communication equipment and related software and accessories to distributors, resellers, and end users. Service revenue is derived from hardware maintenance services, product installation, training, software maintenance, and subscription services.

The Company’s sales of interactive devices, including panels, projectors,whiteboards, audio and communication equipment and other interactive devices generally include hardware maintenance services, a license to software, and the provision of related software maintenance. In most cases, interactiveInteractive devices are generally sold with hardware maintenance services with terms
43

ranging from 36 – 6036-60 months. Software maintenance includes technical support, product updates on a when and if available basis, and error correction services. At times, non-interactive projectors are also sold with hardware maintenance services with terms ranging from 36-60 months. The Company also licenses software independently of its interactive devices, in which case it is bundled with software maintenance, and in some cases, subscription services that include access to on-line content, access to replacement parts, and cloud-based applications. The Company’s software subscription services provide access to content and software applications on an as needed basis over the Internet, but do not provide the right to take delivery of the software applications.

The Company’s product sales, including those with software and related services, generally include a single payment up front for the products and services, and revenue is recorded net of estimated sales returns and rebates based on the Company’s expectations and historical experience. For most of the Company’s product sales, control transfers, and therefore, revenue is recognized when products are shipped at the point of origin. When the Company transfers control of its products to the customer prior to the related shipping and handling activities, the Company has adopted a policy of accounting for shipping and handling activities as a fulfillment cost rather than a performance obligation. For other software product sales, control is transferred when the customer receives the related access code or interactive hardware since the customer’s access code or connection to the interactive hardware activates the software license at which time the software is made available to the customer. For the Company’s software maintenance, hardware maintenance, and subscription services, revenue is recognized ratably over time as the services are provided since time is the best output measure of how those services are transferred to the customer.

The Company’s installation, training and professional development services are generally sold separately from the Company’s products. Control of these services is transferred to our customers over time with hours/time incurred in providing the service being the best depiction of the transfer of services since the customer is receiving the benefit of the services as the work is performed.

For contracts with multiple performance obligations, each of which represent promises within a contract that are distinct, the Company allocates revenue to all distinct performance obligations based on their relative stand-alone selling prices (“SSPs”).

BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

The Company’s business acquisitions are accounted for as a business combination, in accordance with Topic 350 “Business Combinations”, which requires, among other things, that assets acquired, and liabilities assumed be recognized at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date on the consolidated balance sheet. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred. Any excess of the consideration transferred over the assigned values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Income taxes, where applicable, are recognized and measured in accordance with Topic 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires management to use significant judgement and estimates, including the selection of valuation methodologies, estimates of future revenue, costs and cash flows, and discount rates.

GOODWILL andAND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill represents the cost in excess of the fair value of the net assets of acquired businesses. Goodwill is not amortized and is not deductible for tax purposes. Under ASC Topic 350 “Business Combinations”Combinations, we have an option to perform a “qualitative” assessment of the Company to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary. If an entity believes, as a result of its qualitative assessment, that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the business is less than carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is required. Otherwise, no further testing is required. If we determine that the Company meets these criteria, we perform a qualitative assessment. In this qualitative assessment, we consider the following items: macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, overall financial performance and other entity specific events. In addition, we assess whether the most recent fair value determination results in an amount that exceeds the carrying amount of the Company. Based on these assessments, we determine whether the likelihood that a current fair value determination would be less than the current carrying amount is not more likely than not.

Because the qualitative assessment is an option, we may bypass it for any reporting unit in any period as begin our analysis with the quantitative impairment test. We may elect to perform a quantitative impairment test based on the period of time that has passed since the most recent determination of fair value, even when the we do not believe that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the business is less than carrying amount.

In analyzing goodwill for potential impairment in the quantitative impairment test, we use a combination of the income and market approaches to estimate the fair value. Under the income approach, we calculate the fair value based on estimated future discounted cash flows. The assumptions we use are based on what we believe a hypothetical marketplace participant would use in estimating fair value. Under the market approach, we estimate the fair value based on market multiples of revenue or earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization for benchmark companies. If the fair value exceeds carrying value, then no further testing is required. However, if the fair value were to be less than carrying value, we would then determine the amount of the impairment charge, if any, which would be the amount that the carrying value of the goodwill exceeded its implied value.

Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated period of benefit. We evaluate the recoverability of intangible assets periodically and take into account events or circumstances that warrant revised
44

estimates of useful lives or that indicate that impairment exists. No material impairments of intangible assets have been identified during any of the periods presented. Intangible assets are tested for impairment on an annual basis, and between annual tests if indicators of potential impairment exist using an undiscounted cash-flow approach.
The Company's annual impairment testing date normally occurs as of October 1, which facilitates the overall coordination and timing of our annual financial statement close cycle and the preparation of our annual report. During the year ended December 31, 2023, due to triggering events, the Company performed Goodwill testing as of June 30, September 30, and December 31, 2023.
As of June 30, 2023, we determined that a fair-value-based approach.

triggering event had occurred as a result of our market capitalization that suggested one or more of the reporting units may have fallen below the carrying amounts. In addition, changes in our reporting segments resulted in a change in the composition of our reporting units. As a result of these changes, we determined the Company had two reporting units for purposes of testing based upon entities that comprise the Americas and EMEA reporting segments. For purposes of impairment testing, we allocated goodwill to the reporting units based upon a relative fair value allocation approach and assigned approximately $22.4 million and $2.8 million of goodwill to the Americas and EMEA reporting units, respectively.


As of June 30, 2023, we performed an interim goodwill impairment test as a result of the triggering events identified. In analyzing goodwill for potential impairment in the quantitative impairment test, we used a combination of the income and market approaches to estimate the fair value. Under the income approach, we calculated the fair value based on estimated future discounted cash flows. The assumptions used are based on what we believe a hypothetical marketplace participant would use in estimating fair value and include the discount rate, projected average revenue growth and projected long-term growth rates in the determination of terminal values. Under the market approach, we estimated the fair value based on market multiples of revenue or earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization for benchmark companies. Based on the results of our interim test as of June 30, 2023, we concluded that the estimated fair value of each reporting unit exceeded the respective carrying value and, as such, we concluded that the goodwill assigned to each reporting unit, as of June 30, 2023, was not impaired.

As of September 30, 2023, due to further declines in the Company’s market capitalization and a reduction in cash-flows resulting from continued softening in the industry leading to a reduction in sales from interactive flat-panel displays, the Company determined that a triggering event had occurred.

As of September 30, 2023, the Company performed an interim goodwill impairment test as a result of the triggering event identified. The Company’s methodology for estimating fair value was consistent with the income and market approaches used as of June 30, 2023. Certain estimates and assumptions, including the Company’s operating forecast for 2023 and future periods, were revised based on current industry and Company trends. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded goodwill impairment charges of $10.4 million and $2.8 million to the Americas and EMEA reporting units, respectively.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company performed goodwill impairment testing as a result of another triggering event identified. The Company’s methodology for estimating fair value was consistent with the income and market approaches used as of June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2023. Certain estimates and assumptions, including the Company’s operating forecast for 2023 and future periods, were further revised based on current industry and Company trends. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded goodwill impairment charges of $22.4 million and $2.8 million in the Americas and EMEA reporting units, respectively, which also represents total accumulated goodwill impairment charges for each reporting unit.
SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company estimates the fair value of each stock option compensation award at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.model; the fair value of each restricted stock unit awarded is the market price of the underlying shares at the date of grant. The fair value determined represents the cost for the award and is recognized over the vesting period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. Accordingly, stock compensation expense is recognized based on the estimated fair value of the awards which is amortized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Total expense related to the award is reduced by the fair value of the options that are forfeited by the employees that leave the Company prior to vesting.

vesting as they occur.

DERIVATIVE WARRANT LIABILITIES
The Company classifies common stock purchase warrants as equity if the contracts (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement or (ii) give the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company classifies any contracts that (i) require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the control of the Company), (ii) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement), or (iii) contain reset provisions as either an asset or a liability. The Company assesses the classification of its freestanding derivatives at each reporting date to determine whether a change in classification between equity and liabilities is required.
The Company determined that certain warrants to purchase common stock do not satisfy the criteria for classification as equity instruments due to the existence of certain net cash and non-fixed settlement provisions that are not within the sole control of the Company. Such warrants are measured at fair value at each reporting date, and the changes in fair value are included in determining net income for the period.
INCOME TAXES

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes pursuant to the pertinent guidance issued by the FASB. Deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets, liabilities, operating losses, and tax credit carry forwards using the tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. Valuation allowances, if any, are recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount management considers more likely than not to be realized. Such valuation allowances are recorded for the portion of the deferred tax assets that are not expected to be realized based on the levels of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the temporary differences will be deductible.

Emerging Growth Company

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. Accordingly, certain specified reporting and other regulatory requirements for public companies are reduced for businesses that meet the qualifications for emerging growth companies.

These provisions include:

(1)an exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;
(2)an exemption from the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards until they would apply to private companies;
(3)an exemption from compliance with any new requirements adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, or the PCAOB, requiring mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report in which the auditor would be required to provide additional information about our audit and our financial statements; and
(4)reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements.

Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments.The communication of a critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Critical Audit Matter – Goodwill Impairment Assessment
As described in Note 1, in analyzing goodwill for potential impairment in the quantitative impairment test, the Company uses a combination of the income and market approaches to estimate the fair value. Under the income approach, the Company calculates the fair value based on discounted estimated future cash flows. Under the market approach, the Company estimates the fair value based on the market multiples of revenue or earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization for benchmark companies.
We identified the quantitative impairment test of goodwill as a critical audit matter. The principal considerations for that determination included the judgment involved in assessing management’s impairment test of goodwill due to the measurement uncertainty involved in determining the fair value of equity for the reporting units. In particular, the fair value estimates are sensitive to changes in assumptions such as discount rates, expected future cash flows, long-term growth rates, and comparable company earnings multiples.
The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
We obtained an understanding of management’s process for assessing goodwill impairment and performing the qualitative goodwill impairment test, including management’s process for developing assumptions used in the income and market approaches to estimate the fair value of reporting units.
We evaluated management’s revenue growth rates, margins, and cash flows to current industry and economic trends, while also considering the current and future business, customer base, and product mix.
We assessed management’s process for estimating revenue growth and margins by comparing past projections to actual performance.
With the assistance of our valuation professionals with specialized skills and knowledge, we evaluated the models, valuation methodology, and significant assumptions used in the income and market approaches to estimate the fair values.
We tested management’s reconciliation of the fair value of equity of the reporting units to the market capitalization of the Company.

Boxlight Corporation

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

COMPANY HISTORY AND RECENT ACQUISITIVE GROWTH

Boxlight Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 18, 2014 with its headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia for the purpose of becoming a technology company that sells interactive educational products. The Company designs, produces and distributes interactive technology solutions predominantly to the education market.

On September 24, 2020, the Company acquired Sahara Presentation Systems PLC, a leader in distributed and manufactured AV solutions. Headquartered in the United Kingdom, Sahara is a leader in distributed AV products and a manufacturer of multi-award-winning touchscreens and digital signage products, including the globally renowned Clevertouch and Sedao brands.

On March 12, 2019, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with Modern Robotics Inc. (MRI), based in Miami, Florida. MRI is engaged in the business of developing, selling and distributing science, technology, engineering and math (STEM), robotics and programming solutions to the global education market.

On August 31, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of the membership interest equity of EOS, an Arizona limited liability company. EOS is in the business of providing technology consulting, training, and professional development services to create sustainable programs that integrate technology with curriculum in K-12 schools and districts.

On June 22, 2018, the Company 100% of the capital stock of the Qwizdom Companies. The Qwizdom Companies develop interactive whiteboard software and online solutions that are quick to implement and designed to increase participation, provide immediate data feedback, and, most importantly, accelerate and improve comprehension and learning. The Qwizdom Companies have offices outside Seattle, WA and Belfast, Northern Ireland and deliver products in 44 languages to customers around the world through a network of partners.

On May 9, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of the capital stock of Cohuba based in Lancashire, England. Cohuba produces, sells and distributes interactive display panels designed to provide new learning and working experiences through high-quality technologies and solutions through in-room and room-to-room multi-devices multi-user collaboration.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Boxlight Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and account balances among all of affiliated entities have been eliminated.

In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature and necessary for fair financial statement presentation.

ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include estimates of allowancesreserves for bad debts, and inventory obsolescence; the recoverability of deferred tax assets; the fair value and the recoverability of warrants; the initial fair value and recoverability of preferred stock, intangible assets and goodwill; the fair value of stock compensation; the relative stand-alone selling prices of goods and services; and variable consideration.
REVERSE STOCK SPLIT AND RECLASSIFICATIONS
On June 14, 2023, the Company effected a reverse stock split of the Company’s Class A common stock whereby each eight shares of the Company’s authorized and outstanding Class A common stock was converted into one share of common stock. The par value of the common stock was not adjusted. Following the reverse split, the authorized shares for Class A common stock was adjusted to 18,750,000, the authorized shares for Class B common stock remained at 50,000,000 shares, and the authorized shares of preferred stock remained unchanged at 50,000,000 shares. All Class A common share and per share amounts for all periods presented in the consolidated financial statements and the notes to the consolidated financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to give effect to the reverse stock split, including reclassifying an amount equal to the reduction in aggregate par value of Class A common stock to additional paid-in capital on the consolidated balance sheets of approximately $6 thousand. The quantity of Class A common stock equivalents and the conversion and exercise ratios were adjusted for the effect of the reverse stock split for warrants, stock compensation fair valuesarrangements, and the conversion features on preferred shares. All of the agreements included existing conversion language in the event of a stock split and thus did not result in modification accounting or additional incremental expense as a result of this transaction. The Company issued 33,414 shares of Class A common stock to adjust fractional shares following the reverse stock split to the nearest whole share. There are presently no shares of Class B common stock outstanding and none were outstanding as of December 31, 2023 and 2022.
GOING CONCERN
The Company’s financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets acquired and estimatesthe satisfaction of obligations in the normal course of business.

At September 30, 2023 the Company was not in compliance with its Senior Leverage Ratio financial covenant under the credit agreement, originally dated December 31, 2021, as amended (the "Credit Agreement"), between the Company, its direct and indirect subsidiaries, and Whitehawk Finance LLC, as lender, and White Hawk Capital Partners, LP, as collateral agent. The Company's non-compliance with the Credit Agreement was cured by the Company paying
F-7

$4.3 million, inclusive of $0.3 million in prepayment penalties and accrued interest, in November 2023 which would have resulted in the Company being in compliance with the Senior Leverage Ratio at September 30, 2023.
At December 31, 2023, the Company was not in compliance with its financial covenant related to the Senior Leverage Ratio under the Credit Agreement. The Senior Leverage Ratio, as stated in the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement, decreases to 2.50 at December 31, 2023, 2.00 at March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024 and at 1.75 thereafter.
On March 14, 2024 the Company entered into a fifth agreement (the 'Fifth Amendment') with the Collateral Agent and Lender which waived any Event of Default that may have arisen directly as a result of the financial covenant default at December 31, 2023 and in the interim two-month period ended February 29, 2024. The Fifth Amendment also restated the Senior Leverage Ratio and Minimum Liquidity requirements. Under the Amended agreement, the Senior Leverage Ratio requirement at March 31, 2024 was amended from 2.00 to 6.00, at June 30, 2024 will remain at 2.00 and thereafter will remain at 1.75.
Because of the significant decreases in the required Senior Leverage Ratio that will occur over the next twelve months, the Company’s current forecast projects the Company may not be able to maintain compliance with this ratio. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

In view of this matter, continuation as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to continue to achieve positive cash flow from operations, obtain waivers or other relief under the Credit Agreement for contingent liabilities.

any future non-compliance with the Senior Leverage Ratio, or refinance its Credit Agreement with a different lender on more favorable terms. The Company is actively working to refinance its debt with new lenders. While the Company is confident in its ability to refinance its existing debt, it does not have written or executed agreements as of the issuance of this Form 10-K. The Company’s ability to refinance its existing debt is based upon credit markets and economic forces that are outside of its control. We believe we have a good working relationship with our current lender. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in refinancing its debt, or on terms acceptable to the Company.


To the extent not converted into the Company’s Class A common stock, the outstanding shares of our Series B preferred stock became redeemable at the option of the holders at any time or from time to time commencing on January 1, 2024 upon, 30 days’ prior written notice to the Company, for a redemption price, payable in cash, equal to the sum of (a) ($10.00) multiplied by the number of shares of Series B preferred stock being redeemed (the “Redeemed Shares”), plus (b) all accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, on such Redeemed Shares. We may be required to seek alternative financing arrangements or restructure the terms of the agreement with the Series B preferred shareholders on terms that are not favorable to us if cash and cash equivalents are not sufficient to fully redeem the Series B preferred shares. We are currently evaluating alternatives to refinance or restructure the Series B preferred shares including extending the maturity of the Series B preferred shares beyond the current optional conversion date.
These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amount and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company not continue as a going concern.
COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

LOSS

Comprehensive income (loss) reflects the change in equity during the year except those resulting from investments by and distributions to stockholders and is comprised of all components of net income (lossloss and foreign currency translation adjustments.

FOREIGN CURRENCIES

The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar.

The U.S. dollar is the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates and is generally the currency in which the CompanyCompany’s business generates and expends cash. Subsidiaries with different functional currencies, translatestranslate their assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect as of the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates for the year. The resulting translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a separate component of equity (deficit). Foreign exchange gains and losses arise from transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency.
F-8

Gains and losses on those foreign currency transactions are included in determining net incomeloss for the period in which the exchange rates change.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. These investments are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions which, from time to time, may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits of $250,000 for banks located in the U.S. The Company has not experienced any losses with regard to its bank accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risk of loss on its cash bank accounts.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

EXPECTED CREDIT LOSS

Accounts receivable are stated at contractual amounts, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.expected credit losses. The allowance for doubtful accountscredit losses represents management’s estimate of the amounts that ultimately will not be realized in cash. The Company reviews the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accountscredit losses on an ongoing basis, using historical payment trends, the age of receivables and knowledge of the individual customers. Estimated credit losses consider relevant information about past events, current conditions and reasonable and supporting forecasts that affect the collectability of financial assets. When the analysis indicates, management increases or decreases the allowance accordingly. However, if the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, additional allowances might be required.

INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value and include spare parts and finished goods. Inventories are primarily determined using specific identification and the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) cost methods. Cost includes direct cost from the Current Manufacturer (“CM”) or Original Equipment Manufacturer (“OEM”), plus material overhead related to the purchase, inbound freight and import duty costs.

The Company continuously reviews its inventory levels to identify slow-moving merchandise and markdowns necessary to clear slow-moving merchandise, which reduces the cost of inventories to its estimated net realizable value. Consideration is given to several quantitative and qualitative factors, including current pricing levels and the anticipated need for subsequent markdowns, aging of inventories, historical sales trends, and the impact of market trends and economic conditions. Estimates of markdown requirements may differ from actual results due to changes in quantity, quality and mix of products in inventory, as well as changes in consumer preferences, market and economic conditions.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment is stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated life of the asset. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.

LONG–LIVED ASSETS

Long-lived assets to be held and used or disposed of other than by sale are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. When required, impairment losses on assets to be held and used or disposed of other than by sale are recognized based on the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

Transactions in which the Company acquires or obtains control of one or more businesses are accounted There was no impairment recognized for as business combinations in accordance with Topic 350, Business Combinations, which requires, among other things, that assets acquired,2023 and liabilities assumed be recognized at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date on the balance sheet. Income taxes, where applicable, are recognized and measured in accordance with Topic 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires management to use significant judgement and estimates, including the selection of valuation methodologies, estimates of future revenue, costs and cash flows, and discount rates. Transaction costs are expenses as incurred. Any excess consideration transferred over he assigned values of net assets acquired would be recorded as goodwill.

2022.

GOODWILL

Goodwill represents the cost in excess of the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets of acquired businesses, and represents implied synergies expected of the completed business combinations. GoodwillMost goodwill is not amortized and is not deductible for tax purposes.

Under ASCTopic 350, Business CombinationsIntangibles—Goodwill and Other, we havethe Company has an option to perform a “qualitative” assessment to determine whether quantitative impairment testing is necessary. If, as a result of a qualitative assessment, it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the business is less than carrying amount, quantitative impairment testing is required. Otherwise, no further testing is necessary. If we performthe Company performs a qualitative assessment, we considerthe Company

In addition, we assessthe Company assesses whether the most recent fair value determination resulted in an amount that significantly exceeded the carrying amount of the Company. Based on these assessments, we determinethe Company determines whether the likelihood that a current fair value determination would be less than the current carrying amount is not more likely than not.

Because the qualitative assessment is an option, wethe Company may bypass it for any reporting unit in any period and begin the analysis using a quantitative impairment test. WeThe Company may also elect to perform a quantitative impairment test based on the period of time that has passed since the most recent determination of fair value, even when we dothe Company does not believe that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the business is less than carrying amount.

In analyzing goodwill for potential impairment in the quantitative impairment test, we usethe Company uses a combination of the income and market approaches to estimate the fair value. Under the income approach, we calculatethe Company calculates the fair value based on estimated future discounted cash flows. The assumptions we useused are based on what we believethe Company believes a hypothetical marketplace participant would use in estimating fair value. Under the market approach, we estimatethe Company estimates the fair value based on market multiples of revenue or earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization for benchmark companies. If the fair value exceeds carrying value, then no further testing is required. However, if the fair value were to be less than carrying value, wethe Company would then determine the amount of the impairment charge, if any, which would be the amount that the carrying value of the goodwill exceeded its implied value. No goodwill impairments have been identified and recognized during any
As of June 30, 2023, we determined that a triggering event had occurred as a result of our market capitalization that suggested one or more of the periods presented.

Beingreporting units may have fallen below the carrying amounts. In addition, changes in our reporting segments resulted in a change in the composition of our reporting units. As a result of these changes, we determined the Company had two reporting units for purposes of testing based upon entities that comprise the Americas and EMEA reporting segments. For purposes of impairment testing, we allocated goodwill to the reporting units based upon a relative fair value allocation approach and assigned approximately $22.4 million and $2.8 million of goodwill to the Americas and EMEA reporting units, respectively.

As of June 30, 2023, we performed an interim goodwill impairment test as a result of the triggering events identified. Based on the results of our interim test as of June 30, 2023, we concluded that the acquisitionestimated fair value of Saharaeach reporting unit exceeded the respective carrying value and, as such, we concluded that the goodwill assigned to each reporting unit, as of June 30, 2023, was not impaired.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated period of benefit. We evaluatebenefit and presented net of accumulated amortization. The Company reviews the carrying amounts of intangible assets for impairment whenever an event or change in circumstances indicates that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The Company measures the recoverability of intangible assets by comparing the carrying amount of each asset to the future undiscounted cash flows the Company expects the asset to generate. Impairment is measured by the amount in which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. In addition, the Company periodically and considerevaluates the estimated remaining useful lives of

Intangible assets are tested for impairment on an annual basis, and between annual tests if indicators of potential impairment exist, using a fair-value-based approach.

DERIVATIVE TREATMENT OF STOCK PURCHASE WARRANTS

The Company classifies common stock purchase warrants as equity if the contracts (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement or (ii) give the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company classifies any contracts that (i) require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the control of the Company), (ii) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement), or (iii) contain reset provisions as either an asset or a liability. The Company assesses classification of its freestanding derivatives at each reporting date to determine whether a change in classification between equity and liabilities is required.

The Company determined that certain warrants to purchase common stock do not satisfy the criteria for classification as equity instruments due to the existence of certain net cash and non-fixed settlement provisions that are not within the sole control of the Company. Such warrants are measured at fair value at each reporting date, and the changes in fair value are included in determining net incomeloss for the period.

See Note 10 “Derivative Liabilities” for more information.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company’s financial instruments primarily include cash, accounts receivable, derivative liabilities, accounts payable and debt. Due to the short-term nature of cash, accounts receivablesreceivable and accounts payable, the carrying amounts of these assets and liabilities approximate their fair value. Debt approximates fair value due to either
The Company has determined that the short-term nature or recent execution of the debt agreement. The amount of consideration received is deemed to be theestimated fair value of long-term debt net of any debt discountis approximately $44.4 million when the carrying value, excluding discounts, premiums and issuance cost.

Derivativescosts, of approximately $43.2 million. The fair value of debt was estimated using market rates the Company believes would be available for similar types of financial instruments and represents a Level 2 measurement.

Derivative liabilities are recorded at fair value at each period end.

on a recurring basis.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants. A fair value hierarchy has been established for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1 Inputs - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 Inputs - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (such as interest rates, volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.) or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3 Inputs - Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

F-11

There were no transfers into or out of Level 3 measurements in 2023 and 2022.
The following tables set forth, by level within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s financial liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 20202023 and 20192022 (in thousands):

NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. For purposes of this calculation, options to purchase common stock, restricted stock units subject to vesting and warrants to purchase common stock were considered to be common stock equivalents. Diluted net loss per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents. The dilutive effect of convertible instruments is determined using the if-converted method, presuming share settlement. 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 calculation for the entire period being presented. In periods when losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
For the year ended December 31, 2023, potentially dilutive securities that were not included in the diluted per share calculation because they would be anti-dilutive comprise 0.3 million shares from options to purchase common shares, 0.4 million of unvested restricted shares, and 1.4 million shares issuable upon exercise of warrants. Additionally, potentially dilutive securities of 2.2 million shares from the assumed conversion of preferred stock are excluded from the denominator because they would be anti-dilutive. For the year ended December 31, 2022, potentially dilutive securities that were not included in the diluted per share calculation because they would be anti-dilutive comprise 0.5 million shares from options to purchase common shares, unvested restricted shares of 0.3 million and 1.3 million shares issuable upon exercise of warrants. Additionally, potentially dilutive securities of 2.2 million shares from the assumed conversion of preferred stock are excluded from the denominator because they would be anti-dilutive.
REVENUE RECOGNITION

In accordance with the FASB’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, (Topic 606), the Company recognizes revenue at the amount to which it expects to be entitled when control of the products or services is transferred to its customers. Control is generally transferred when the Company has a present right to payment and the title and the significant risks and rewards of ownership of products or services are transferred to its customers. Product revenue is derived from the sale of projectors, interactive panels, audio and communication equipment and related software and accessories to distributors, resellers, and end users. Service revenue is derived from hardware maintenance services, product installation, training, software maintenance, and subscription services.

F-9

Nature of Products and Services and Related Contractual Provisions

The Company’s sales of interactive devices, including panels, projectors,audio and communication equipment and other interactive devices generally include hardware maintenance services, a license to software, and the provision of related software maintenance. In most cases, interactiveInteractive devices are generally sold with hardware maintenance services with terms of
F-12

approximately 6036-60 months. Software maintenance includes technical support, product updates on a when and if available basis, and error correction services. At times, non-interactive projectorspanels are also sold with hardware maintenance services with terms of approximately 60 months. The Company also licenses software independently of its interactive devices, in which case it is bundled with software maintenance, and in some cases, subscription services that include access to on-line content, and cloud-based applications. The Company’s software subscription services provide access to content and software applications on an as needed basis over the Internet, but do not provide the right to take delivery of the software applications.

The Company’s product sales, including those with software and related services, generally include a single payment up front for the products and services, and revenue is recorded net of estimated sales returns and rebates based on the Company’s expectations and historical experience. For most of the Company’s product sales, control transfers, and therefore, revenue is recognized when products are shipped at the point of origin. When the Company transfers control of its products to the customer prior to the related shipping and handling activities, the Company has adopted a policy of accounting for shipping and handling activities as a fulfillment cost rather than a performance obligation. For many of the Company’s software product sales, control is transferred when shipped at the point of origin since the software is installed on the interactive hardware device in advance of shipping. For other software product sales, control is transferred when the customer receives the related access code or interactive hardware since the customer’s access code or connection to the interactive hardware activates the software license at which time the software is made available to the customer. For the Company’s software maintenance, hardware maintenance, and subscription services, revenue is recognized ratably over time as the services are provided since time is the best output measure of how those services are transferred to the customer.

The Company’s installation, training and professional development services are generally sold separately from the Company’s products. Control of these services is transferred to our customers over time with hours/time incurred in providing the service being the best depiction of the transfer of services since the customer is receiving the benefit of the services as the work is performed.

For the sale of third-party products and services where the Company obtains control of the products and services before transferring it to the customer, the Company recognizes revenue based on the gross amount billed to customers. The Company considers multiple factors when determining whether it obtains control of the third-party products and services including, but not limited to, evaluating if it can establish the price of the product, retains inventory risk for tangible products or has the responsibility for ensuring acceptability of the product or service. The Company has not historically entered into transactions where it does not take control of the product or service prior to transfer to the customer.

The Company excludes all taxes assessed by a governmental agency that are both imposed on and concurrent with the specific revenue-producing transaction from revenue (for example, sales and use taxes). In essence, the Company is reporting these amounts collected on behalf of the applicable government agency on a net basis as though they are acting as an agent. The taxes collected and not yet remitted to the governmental agency are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

F-10

Significant Judgments

For contracts with multiple performance obligations, each of which represent promises within a contract that are distinct, the Company allocates revenue to all distinct performance obligations based on their relative stand-alone selling prices (“SSPs”). The Company’s products and services included in its contracts with multiple performance obligations generally are not sold separately and there are no observable prices available to determine the SSP for those products and services. Since observable prices are not available, SSPs are established that reflect the Company’s best estimates of what the selling prices of the performance obligations would be if they were sold regularly on a stand-alone basis. The Company’s process for estimating SSPs without observable prices considers multiple factors that may vary depending upon the unique facts and circumstances related to each performance obligation including, when applicable, the estimated cost to provide the performance obligation, market trends in the pricing for similar offerings, product-specific business objectives, and competitor or other relevant market pricing and margins. Because observable prices are generally not available for the Company’s performance obligations that are sold in bundled arrangements, the Company does not apply the residual approach to determining SSP. However, the Company does have certain performance obligations for which pricing is highly variable or uncertain, and contracts with those performance obligations generally contain multiple performance obligations with highly variable or uncertain pricing. For these contracts the Company allocates the transaction price to those performance obligations using an alternative method of allocation that is consistent with the allocation objective and the guidance on determining SSPs in Topic 606 considering, when applicable, the estimated cost to provide the performance obligation, market pricing for competing product or service offerings, residual values based on the estimated SSP for certain goods, product-specific business objectives, incremental values for bundled transactions that include a service relative to similar transactions that exclude the service, and competitor pricing and margins. A separate price has not been established by the Company for its hardware maintenance services and software maintenance services. In addition, hardware maintenance services, software solutions, and the related maintenance services are never sold separately and are proprietary in nature, and the related selling price of these products and services is highly variable or uncertain. Therefore, the SSP of these products and services is estimated using the alternative method described above, which includes residual value techniques.

The Company has applied the portfolio approach to its allocation of the transaction price for certain portfolios of contracts that are executed in the same manner, contain the same performance obligations, and are priced in a consistent
F-13

manner. The Company believes that the application of the portfolio approach produces the same result as if they were applied at the contract level.

Contract Balances

The timing of invoicing to customers often differs from the timing of revenue recognition and these timing differences can result in receivables, contract assets, or contract liabilities (deferred revenue) on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Fees for the Company’s product and most service contracts are fixed, except as adjusted for rebate programs when applicable, and are generally due within 30-60 days of contract execution. Fees for installation, training, and professional development services are fixed and generally become due as the services are performed. The Company has an established history of collecting under the terms of its contracts without providing refunds or concessions to its customers. The Company’s contractual payment terms do not vary when products are bundled with services that are provided over multiple years. In these contracts where services are expected to be transferred on an ongoing basis for several years after the related payment, the Company has determined that the contracts generally do not include a significant financing component. The upfront invoicing terms are designed 1) to provide customers with a predictable way to purchase products and services where the payment is due in the same timeframe as when the products, which constitute the predominant portion of the contractual value, are transferred, and 2) to ensure that the customer continues to use the related services, so that the customer will receive the optimal benefit from the products over their lives. Additionally, the Company has elected the practical expedient to exclude any financing component from consideration for contracts where, at contract inception, the period between the transfer of services and the timing of the related payment is not expected to exceed one year.

The Company has an unconditional right to consideration for all products and services transferred to the customer. That unconditional right to consideration is reflected in accounts receivable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in accordance with Topic 606. Contract liabilities are reflected in deferred revenue in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and reflect amounts allocated to performance obligations that have not yet been transferred to the customer related to software maintenance, hardware maintenance, and subscription services. The Company has no material contract assets onat December 31, 20202023 or 2019.2022. During the years ended December 31, 20202023 and 2019,2022, the Company recognized $2.0$7.9 million and $2.0$7.5 million, respectively, of revenue that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 20192022 and January 1, 2019, respectively, as adjusted for Topic 606, at the beginning of the period.

2021, respectively.

Variable Consideration

The Company’s otherwise fixed consideration in its customer contracts may vary when refunds or credits are provided for sales returns, stock rotation rights, price protection provisions, or in connection with certain other rebate provisions. The Company generally does not allow product returns other than under assurance warranties or hardware maintenance contracts. However, the Company, on a case-by-case basis, will grant exceptions, mostly “buyer’s remorse” where the distributor or reseller’s end customer either did not understand what they were ordering, or determined that the product did not meet their needs. An allowance for sales returns is estimated based on an analysis of historical trends. In very limited situations, a customer may return previous purchases held in inventory for a specified period of time in exchange for credits toward additional purchases. The Company provides rebates to certain customers based on the achievement of certain sales targets. The provision for rebates is estimated based on customers’ contracted rebate programs and our historical experience of rebates paid. The Company includes variable consideration in its transaction price when there is a basis to reasonably estimate the amount of the fee and it is probable there will not be a significant reversal. These estimates are generally made using the expected valuemost likely method based on historical experience and are measured at each reporting date. There was no material revenue recognized in 20202023 related to changes in estimated variable consideration that existed at December 31, 2019.

2022.

Remaining Performance Obligations

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of accounting within the contract. The transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised good or service to the customer. The Company identifies performance obligations at contract inception so that it can monitor and account for the obligations over the life of the contract. Remaining performance obligations represent the portion of the transaction price in a contract allocated to products and services not yet transferred to the customer. As of December 31, 2020,2023 and 2019,2022, the aggregate amount of the contractual transaction prices allocated to remaining performance obligations was $16.1$25.0 million and $4.6$23.9 million, respectively. The Company expects to recognize revenue on approximately 43%34% of the
F-14

remaining performance obligations in 2021, 45%2024, 28% in 2022 and 2023,2025, 21% in 2026, 12% in 2027, with the remainder recognized thereafter.

In accordance with Topic 606, the Company has elected not to disclose the value of remaining performance obligations for contracts for which the Company recognizes revenue at the amount to which it has the right to invoice for services performed (for example, a time-and-materials professional services contracts)contract). In addition, the Company has elected not to disclose the value of remaining performance obligations for contracts with performance obligations that are expected, at contract inception, to be satisfied over a period that does not exceed one year.

Disaggregated Revenue

The Company disaggregates revenue based upon the nature of its products and services and the timing and in the manner which it is transferred to the customer. Although all products are transferred to the customer at a point in time, hardware and some software is pre-installed on the interactive device are transferred at the point of shipment, while some software is transferred to the customer at the time the hardware is received by the customer or when software product keysaccess codes are delivered electronically to the customer. All service revenue is transferred over time to the customer; however, professional services are generally transferred to the customer within a year from the contract date as measured based upon hours or time incurred while software maintenance, hardware maintenance, and subscription services are generally transferred over3- 5 years from the contract execution date as measured based upon the passage of time.

Contract Costs

The Company capitalizes incremental costs to obtain a contract with a customer if the Company expects to recover those costs. The incremental costs to obtain a contract are those that the Company incurs to obtain a contract with a customer that it would not have otherwise incurred if the contract were not obtained (e.g., a sales commission). The Company capitalizes the costs incurred to fulfil a contract only if those costs meet all the following criteria:

The costs relate directly to a contract or to an anticipated contract that the Company can specifically identify.
The costs generate or enhance resources of the Company that will be used in satisfying (or in continuing to satisfy) performance obligations in the future.
The costs are expected to be recovered.

The costs relate directly to a contract or to an anticipated contract that the Company can specifically identify.
The costs generate or enhance resources of the Company that will be used in satisfying (or in continuing to satisfy) performance obligations in the future.
The costs are expected to be recovered.
Certain sales commissions incurred by the Company were determined to be incremental costs to obtain the related contracts, which are deferred and amortized ratably over the estimated economic benefit period. For these sales commissions that are incremental costs to obtain where the period of amortization would have been recognized over a period that is one year or less, the Company elected the practical expedient to expense those costs as incurred. Commission costs that are deferred are classified as current or non-current assets based on the timing of when the Company expects to recognize the expense and are included in prepaid and other assets and other assets, respectively, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Total deferred commissions at December 31, 20202023 and 20192022 and the related amortization for 20192023 and 2022 were less than $0.1 million.

$550,000.

The Company has not historically incurred any material fulfilmentfulfillment costs that meet the criteria for capitalization.

SEGMENT REPORTING
ASC 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (CODM), or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Our CODM is our Chief Executive Officer.
Effective January 1, 2023, the Company changed its segment reporting to align with the geographic markets in which it operates, as further discussed in Note 17 - Segments. The Company previously managed the Company as one operating segment. Following the integration of recent acquisitions which further expanded the Company’s operations into Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) and other international markets, the Company’s operations are now organized, managed and classified into three reportable segments – EMEA, North and Central America (the “Americas”) and all other geographic regions (“Rest of World”). Our EMEA segment consists of the operations of Sahara Holding Limited and its subsidiaries (the “Sahara Entities”). Our Americas segment consists primarily of Boxlight, Inc. and its subsidiaries and the Rest of World segment consists primarily of Boxlight Australia, PTY LTD ("Boxlight Australia”).

Each of our operating segments are primarily engaged in the sale of education technology products and services in the education market but which are also sold into the health, government and corporate sectors and derive a majority of their revenues from the sale of flat-panel displays, audio and other hardware accessory products, software solutions and professional services. Generally, our displays produce higher net operating revenues but lower gross profit margins than our accessory solutions and professional services. The Americas operating segment includes salaries and overhead for corporate functions that are not allocated to the Company’s individual reporting segments. Transfers between segments are generally valued at market and are eliminated in consolidation.
WARRANTY RESERVE

For customers that do not purchase hardware maintenance services, the Company generally provides warranty coverage on projectorspanels and accessories, batteries and computers. This warranty coverage does not exceed 24 months,ranges from 2-5 years, and the Company establishes a liability for estimated product warranty costs, included in other short-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, at the time the related product revenue is recognized. The warranty obligation is affected by historical product failure rates and the related use of materials, labor costs and freight incurred in correcting any product failure. Should actual product failure rates, use of materials, or other costs differ from the Company’s estimates, additional warranty liabilities could be required, which would reduce its gross profit.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and consistsconsist primarily of personnel related costs, prototype and sample costs, design costs, and global product certifications mostly for wireless certifications.

INCOME TAXES

TAX

An asset and liability approach is used for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between income tax and financial reporting and principally relate to recognition of revenue and expenses in different periods for financial and tax accounting purposes and are measured using currently enacted tax rates and laws. In addition, a deferred tax asset can be generated by net operating loss carryforwards. If it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized.

STOCK COMPENSATION

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company estimates the fair value of each stock-based compensationstock option award at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.model; the fair value for each restricted stock unit award is the market price of the underlying shares at the date of grant. The fair value determined represents the cost for the award and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. Total expense is reduced by the fair value of thepreviously recognized compensation expense for options and restricted stock units that are forfeited prior to vesting when the forfeiture occurs.

LEASES
Operating lease assets and liabilities are reflected within operating lease assets, operating lease liabilities, current, and operating lease liabilities, non-current, on the consolidated balance sheets. Operating lease assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Many of the leases have one or more lease renewal options. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion. The Company does not consider the exercise of any lease renewal options reasonably certain to occur. Certain of our lease agreements contain early termination options. No renewal options or early termination options have been included in the calculation of the operating right-of-use assets or operating lease liabilities. Certain of our lease agreements provide for periodic adjustments to rental payments for inflation, which is recognized as variable lease cost when they occur. As the majority of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is based on the terms of the lease. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. For these short-term leases, lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company is not a lessor in any lease agreement.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014,June 2016, the FASB issued Topic 606,ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which replaced the previous revenue recognition guidance. The Company adopted Topic 606 effective January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition method. Under this method, the Company elected to apply the cumulative effect method to all customer contracts as of the adoption date. The impact to revenue in 2019 asintroduced a result of the adoption of Topic 606 was approximately $0.6 million, which is the result of the identification of additional units of accounting or performance obligations upon adoption of Topic 606. Specifically, the Company identified software (previously combined with hardwarenew model for accounting purposes), the related software maintenance, and hardware maintenance (previously accounted for under guidance applicable to extended warranties) as units of accounting. Under prior GAAP, no portion of the transaction price was allocated to, and therefore, no revenue was recognized upon the transfer of these products and services. While revenue related to software may only be deferred for up to a few days relative to the timing of revenue recognition under prior GAAP, software maintenance and hardware maintenance revenue will now be recognized over a period of 3-5 yearsrecognizing credit losses on financial instruments based on the specified term in the contract or the estimated service term, if not specified. As a result, the cumulative impact due to the adoptionan estimate of Topic 606 on the opening consolidated balance sheet was a decrease in opening retained earnings, with an increase in deferred commissions, an increase in deferred revenue, and a decrease in accrued warranty costs.

We adopted ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350: Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” effective January 1, 2020. ASU 2017-04 simplifies the assessment of goodwill for impairment by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test. As amended, the goodwill impairment test now consists of one step comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value. An entity should recognize a goodwill impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The new pronouncement had no impact to the Company, as the results from step one did not indicate any impairment the needed to be recognized.

In February 2016, the FASB issues ASC 842 “Leases” that creates new accounting and reporting guidelines for leasing arrangements.current expected credit losses (“CECL”). The new guidance requires organizations that leaseapplies to loans, accounts receivable, trade receivables, other financial assets to recognize assetsmeasured at amortized cost, loan commitments and liabilities on the balanceother off-balance sheet related to the rights and obligations created by those leases, regardless of whether they are classified as finance or operating leases. Under the previous guidance, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease primarily depended on its classification as a finance or operating lease.credit exposures. The new guidance also requiresapplies to debt securities and other financial assets measured at fair value through other comprehensive income. Estimated credit losses under CECL consider relevant information about past events, current conditions and reasonable and supporting forecasts that affect the collectability of financial assets. The new guidance was effective January 1, 2023 and was applied using a modified retrospective approach through a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2023. Prior period comparative information has not been recast and continues to be reported under the accounting guidance in effect for those periods. The Company recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to reduce retained earnings by $76 thousand, net of taxes. The change in the allowance for credit losses was not significant during the year ended December 31, 2023.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements not yet Adopted
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which enhances reporting requirements under Topic 280. The enhanced disclosure requirements include: title and position of the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), significant segment expenses provided to the CODM, extending certain annual disclosures to help financial statement users better understand the amount, timing,interim periods, clarifying single reportable segment entities must apply ASC 280 in its entirety, and uncertaintypermitting more than one measure of cash flows arising from leases.

This change will apply retrospectively to all periods within that reporting period. Earlierpresented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740), which establishes new income tax disclosure requirements in addition to modifying and eliminating certain existing requirements. The new guidance requires consistent categorization and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation, as well as further disaggregation of income taxes paid. This change is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. This change will apply on a prospective basis to annual financial statements for periods beginning after the effective date. However, retrospective application in all prior periods presented is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new pronouncementASU on its financial statements and will adopt the new standard in 2021.

Table of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The new guidance replaces the incurred loss methodology with the current expected credit loss (CECL) methodology. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including trade accounts receivable. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) and net investments in leases recognized by a lessor in accordance with Topic 842. This new guidance changes the impairment model for most financial assets and certain other instruments. Since the Company is a Small Emerging Growth Company, the ASU is not effective until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within that fiscal year. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have, if any, on its financial statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, “Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity.” The new guidance simplifies the accounting for certain convertible instruments and for contracts in an entity’s own equity. Key provisions include the elimination of the “cash conversion” guidance and the “beneficial conversion feature” guidance in ASC 470-20 as well as a simplification of the settlement assessment that entities are required to perform to determine whether a contract qualifies for equity classification by removing certain conditions in ASC 815-40-25. Since the Company is a Small Emerging Growth Company, the ASU is not effective until annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2023. Earlier application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on its financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes” (Topic 740). The new guidance modifies the requirements for the timing of adoption of enacted change in tax law. The effects of changes on taxes currently payable or refundable for the current year must be reflected in the computation of annual effective tax rate. Since the Company is an Emerging Growth Company, the ASU is not effective until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have, if any, on its financial statements.

There were various other accounting standards and interpretations issued recently, some of which may be applicable to the Company but none of which are expected to a have a material impact on our financial position, operations or cash flows.

NOTE 2 – RECENT BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

The acquisitions described below were accounted for as business combinations which require, among other things, that assets acquired, and liabilities assumed be recognized at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Deferred income taxes are recognized and measured in accordance with Topic 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred. Any excess of the consideration transferred over the assigned values of the net assets acquired would be recorded as goodwill.

Sahara Presentation Systems PLC

On September 24, 2020, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Sahara Holdings Limited, a private limited company operating under the laws of the UK and all of its subsidiaries, including Sahara Presentation Systems PLC (collectively, “Sahara”). Sahara is a distributor of audio and video software and equipment including the Clevertouch branded product line of interactive touch screens. This strategic acquisition expanded the Company’s geographic footprint, industry verticals served, and enhanced the Company’s technology and product offerings.

As consideration for the purchase of Sahara, the Company transferred $73.7 million to the Sellers, including $44.9 million in cash (net of $6.0 million in cash acquired) and $28.9 million in convertible preferred stock. The convertible preferred stock was comprised of 1,586,620 shares of Series B convertible redeemable preferred stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) and 1,320,850 shares of Series C convertible redeemable preferred stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”). The fair value of the preferred shares issued was $16.5 million and $12.4 million for the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, respectively. See further discussion of the features of the preferred shares in Note 11.

The consideration transferred to the selling shareholders along with the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. Determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the issued shares of Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock requires management to use significant judgment and estimates, including the selection of valuation methodologies, estimates of future revenue, costs and cash flows, discount rates, and selection of comparable companies. The Company engaged the assistance of an independent third-party valuation specialist to determine certain fair value measurements related to acquired assets, and the Series B Preferred Stock, and the Series C Preferred Stock. The excess consideration over the net fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recognized as goodwill.

The fair value of the deferred revenue at the date of acquisition was determined based on the estimated direct and incremental costs to fulfill the remaining performance obligations associated with the deferred revenue, plus a reasonable profit margin. Accordingly, the carrying amount of deferred revenue at the acquisition date was reduced to its estimated fair value based on the assumptions above which has resulted in and will result in a reduction in revenue that otherwise would have been recognized in periods subsequent to the acquisition date.

The fair value or net realizable value of inventories at the date of acquisition was determined using a “top-down” approach based upon the estimated sales value, less a reasonable profit margin and less the estimated costs to dispose of the inventory, including selling costs and other disposal costs such as freight. Accordingly, the carrying amount of inventories at the acquisition date was increased to its estimated fair value based on these assumptions which resulted in an increase in cost of revenues subsequent to the acquisition date in 2020.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the estimate of the fair value of consideration paid:

Goodwill is primarily attributable to synergies expected from the acquisition and the assembled workforce. The Company incurred a total of $0.2 million in acquisition-related costs and expensed all such costs incurred during the period in which the service was received. Acquisition related costs are included in general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. The results of operations of Sahara since the acquisition are included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. Revenue and net loss attributable to Sahara in the period from the acquisition date of September 24, 2020 through December 31, 2020 were $24.7 million and $5.3 million, respectively.

As disclosed in the third quarter unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had not yet finalized its evaluation and determination of the fair value of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed and recorded provisional amounts based on initial measurements using currently available information. The Company was still gathering information about certain items including income taxes and deferred income tax assets and liabilities. During the fourth quarter, the Company recorded a measurement period adjustment to the initial provisional amounts for deferred income tax assets and liabilities and an immaterial out-of-period correction to the estimated fair value of preferred shares issued which resulting in an increase in goodwill.

The following unaudited pro forma information reflects our consolidated results of operations as if the acquisition of Sahara had taken place on January 1, 2019. The unaudited pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that the Company would have reported had the acquisition actually occurred at the beginning of these periods nor is it necessarily indicative of future results. The unaudited pro forma financial information does not reflect the impact of future events that may occur after the acquisition, including, but not limited to, anticipated costs savings from synergies or other operational improvements. The nature and amount of any material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination are included in the pro forma revenue and net earnings reflected below.

MyStemKits and STEM Education Holdings, Pty

On April 17, 2020, the Company acquired the assets, and assumed certain liabilities of MyStemKits and STEM Education Holdings, Pty, an Australian corporation (“STEM”) which is the sole shareholder of MyStemKits, for consideration of $450,000, after working capital adjustments of $150,000. Consideration included $100,000 paid in cash at closing with the balance payable in the form of a $350,000 purchase note payable in four equal installments of $87,500 (the “Installment Payments”) on July 31, 2020, October 31, 2020, January 31, 2021 and April 30, 2021. Acknowledging the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, on April 17, 2020, the Company and STEM entered into a letter agreement pursuant to which the parties agreed that potential adjustments may be made to the installment payments due on July 31, 2020 and October 31, 2020 in the event the actual gross revenue of MyStemKits is materially below budget. Accordingly, and as agreed between Boxlight and the STEM sellers the note payable has since been adjusted to $175,000.

The Company received an initial term loan of $58.5 million on December 31, 2021 (the “Initial Loan”) and was provided with a subsequent delayed draw facility of up to $10.0 million that may be available for additional working capital purposes under certain conditions (the “Delayed Draw”). The Initial Loan and Delayed Draw are collectively referred to as the “Term Loans.” The Term Loans are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company. The proceeds of the Initial Loan were used to finance the Company’s acquisition of FrontRow, pay off all indebtedness owed to the Company’s then existing lenders, Sallyport Commercial Finance, LLC and Lind Global Macro Fund, LP,Asset Management, LLC, pay related fees and transaction costs, and provide working capital. Of the Initial Loan, $8.5 million was subject to repayment on February 28, 2022, with quarterly principal payments of $625,000 and interest payments commencing March 31, 2022 and the $40.0 million remaining balance plus any Delayed Draw loans becoming due and payable in full on December 31, 2025. The Term Loans bear interest at the LIBOR rate plus 10.75%; provided that after March 31, 2022, if the Company’s Senior Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is less than 2.25, the interest rate would be reduced to LIBOR plus 10.25%.

The Company operates in the United States, United Kingdom and other jurisdictions. Income taxes have been provided based upon the tax laws and rates of the countries in which operations are conducted and income is earned. The cumulative U.S. Federal net operating losses carryforward on tax basis income was approximately $26.5$20.4 million and $19.6$23.5 million at December 31, 20202023 and 2019,2022, respectively, of which $10.6 million will expire between December 31, 2029 and December 31, 2037 and $15.8$9.8 million will carryforward indefinitely. The cumulative U.S. state net operating losses carryforward was approximately $23.0$41.7 million and $19.8$45.8 million onat December 31, 20202023 and 2019,2022, respectively. The cumulative foreign net operating losses carryforward was $2.9$2.1 million and $2.7$1.8 million onat December 31, 20202023 and 2019,2022, respectively.

Prior to the Sahara acquisition, the Company had

The legacy Boxlight entities are in a net deferred tax asset position in the United States, the United Kingdom, and other jurisdictions are primarily driven by the aforementioned net operating losses. The recoverability of these deferred tax assets depends on the Company’s ability to generate taxable income in the jurisdiction to which the carryforward applies. It also depends on specific tax provisions in each jurisdiction that could impact utilization. For example, in the United States, a change in ownership, under section 382 as defined by federal income tax regulations, could significantly limit the Company’sCompany's ability to utilize our U.S. net operating loss carryforwards. The Company has evaluated both positive and negative evidence as to the ability of its legacy entities in each jurisdiction to generate future taxable income. Based on its long history of cumulative losses in those jurisdictions, it believes it is appropriate to maintain a full valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset of its legacy Boxlight entities at December 31, 2023 and 2022. The change in its valuation allowance during 2023 is approximately $4.1 million.
The Company has determined that it likely underwent IRC Sec 382 ownership changes in prior years. The Company is in the process of evaluating the Section 382 impact to determine what portion of its NOLs will be utilizable in the future. It is expected that the ownership change caused a limitation on the net operating losses generated before 2020.
F-27

Additionally, because U.S. tax laws limit the time during which the net operating losses generated prior to 2018 may be applied against future taxes, if the Company fails to generate U.S. taxable income prior to the expiration dates the Company may not be able to fully utilize the net operating loss carryforwards to reduce future income taxes.
The Company has evaluated both positive and negative evidence as to the ability of its legacySahara entities in each jurisdiction to generate future taxable income. Based on its long history of cumulative losses in those jurisdictions, it believes it is appropriate to maintain a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax asset at December 31, 2020 and 2019. The change in its valuation allowance during 2020 is approximately $1.2 million.

Due to the Sahara acquisition, the Company has recognizedhave recorded a net deferred tax liability, for the acquired entities,which is primarily driven by acquired intangible assetsthe net deferred tax liability on the intangibles for which it does not have tax basis in the jurisdictions in which operates (primarily the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and the United States).basis. The Company does not expect to qualify for any consolidated filing positions in any of these countries, so there is no ability to net the deferred tax liabilities of the Sahara companies against the deferred tax assets of the legacy Boxlight companies. Therefore, the net deferred tax liability of $7.9$4.3 million at December 31, 20202023 is entirelyprimarily based on the Sahara acquired entities.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As required by Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted to the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms, and that information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive and financial officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report (“Evaluation Date”), pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses described in our report on internal control over financial reporting below.

Notwithstanding the existence of the material weaknesses, we believe that the consolidated financial statements included in this reportAnnual Report fairly present in accordance with U.S. GAAP, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in this Annual Report.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all controls systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving its objectives.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our principal executive officer and our principal accounting and financial officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). Management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018.2023. In making this assessment, management used the criteria described in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO)(the "COSO"). Based upon such assessment and due to the existence of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below, our principal executive officer and our principal accounting and financial officer have concluded that, as of December 31, 2020,2023, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective.

Our written policies and procedures over accounting transaction processing and period end financial close and reporting are limited which has resulted in ineffective oversight in the establishment of proper monitoring controls over accounting and financial reporting.
During the fourth quarter we failed to identify and record deferred revenue based on contractual arrangements with a new customer for which terms differ from those customary in contracts with other customers. The error was corrected, and the overall magnitude was not deemed significant once quantified, however, it is reasonably expected that had the magnitude of the error been of a greater materiality, it still may not have been detected on a timely basis.

effective, including:

Our written policies and procedures over accounting transaction processing and period end financial close and reporting are limited which has resulted in ineffective oversight in the establishment of proper monitoring controls over accounting and financial reporting; and
We lacked sufficient review of certain financial transactions, and critical financial spreadsheets, such that a proper review had not been performed by someone other than preparer, and that process documentation is lacking for review and monitoring controls over accounting and financial reporting.

It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based
47

in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of certain events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

We acquired Sahara on September 25, 2020. Since the date of the acquisition, we have been assessing Sahara’s internal control over financial reporting to determine their effectiveness and to make controls and procedures consistent across all consolidated entities. We have made changes to procedures and controls and expect to make additional changes in the future. Prior to acquisition, Sahara was not required to document and assess internal control over financial reporting as required under the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. As permitted by guidance issued by the staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Sahara has been excluded from the scope of our report on internal control over financial reporting. Sahara was included in our results of operations subsequent to our acquisition on September 24, 2020 and constituted 45% of our consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2020 and 78% of consolidated assets as of December 31, 2020.

In light of the material weaknessesweakness described above, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure our financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, we believe that the consolidated financial statements included in this reportAnnual Report fairly present in accordance with U.S. GAAP, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in this Annual Report.

Changes in Internal Control overOver Financial Reporting

During fourth quarter of 2020, management engaged professional services firms to assist with the preparation of the review of the income tax provision. Management also automated stock-based expense reporting reducing opportunities for errors.

There werehas been no additional changes madechange in the Company’s internal controlscontrol over financial reporting forduring the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020,2023 that havehas materially affected, ouror is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
