Mobivity Holdings Corp.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

 

1. Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

 

Mobivity Holdings Corp. (the “Company” or “we”) is in the business of developing and operating proprietary platforms over which brands and enterprises can conduct national and localized, data-driven mobile marketing campaigns. Our proprietary platforms, consisting of software available to phones, tablets, PCs, and Point of Sale (“POS”) systems, allow resellers, brands, and enterprises to market their products and services to consumers through text messages sent directly to consumers via mobile phones, mobile smartphone applications, and dynamically printed receipt content. On November 14, 2018, we completed the acquisition of certain operating assets relating to Belly, Inc.’s proprietary digital customer loyalty platform, including client contracts, accounts receivable, and intellectual property. We generate revenue by charging the resellers, brands, and enterprises a per-message transactional fee, through fixed or variable software licensing fees, or via advertising fees.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20212022filed with the SEC on March 30, 2022.

 

In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of our condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023, and for the three and ninemonths ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and 20212022. The results of operations for the three and ninemonths ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year ending December 31, 2022.2023.

 

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates used are those related to stock-based compensation, asset impairments, the valuation and useful lives of depreciable tangible and certain intangible assets, the fair value of common stock used in acquisitions of businesses, the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired in acquisitions of businesses, the fair value of options issued with related party debt, and the valuation allowance of deferred tax assets. Management believes that these estimates are reasonable; however, actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. The reclassifications did not affect previously reported net losses.

 

Acquisitions

 

We account for acquired businesses using the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method, our consolidated financial statements reflect the operations of an acquired business starting from the completion of the acquisition. In addition, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective estimated fair values, with any excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired recorded as goodwill.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

We minimize our credit risk associated with cash by periodically evaluating the credit quality of our primary financial institution. Our balances at times may exceed federally insured limits. We have not experienced any losses on our cash accounts.

 

Accounts Receivable, Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and Concentrations

 

Accounts receivable are carried at their estimated collectible amounts. We grant unsecured credit to substantially all of our customers. Ongoing credit evaluations are performed, and potential credit losses are charged to operations at the time the account receivable is estimated to be uncollectible. Since we cannot necessarily predict future changes in the financial stability of our customers, we cannot guarantee that our reserves will continue to be adequate.

 

As of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023, and December 31, 20212022, we recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $59,190$10,820 and $56,340$34,446 respectively.

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill is tested for impairment at a minimum on an annual basis. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level by first performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If the reporting unit does not pass the qualitative assessment, then the reporting unit’s carrying value is compared to its fair value. The fair values of the reporting units are estimated using market and discounted cash flow approaches. Goodwill is considered impaired if the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value. The discounted cash flow approach uses expected future operating results. Failure to achieve these expected results may cause a future impairment of goodwill at the reporting unit.

 

5

 

We conducted our annual impairment tests of goodwill as of December 31, 20212022. As a result of these tests, we had a total impairment charge of $85,169.$963,659.

 

Intangible assets consist of patents and trademarks, purchased customer contracts, purchased customer and merchant relationships, purchased trade names, purchased technology, non-compete agreements, and software development costs. Intangible assets are amortized over the period of estimated benefit using the straight-line method and estimated useful lives ranging from one year to twenty years. No significant residual value is estimated for intangible assets.

 

The Company’s evaluation of its long-livedgoodwill and intangible assets resulted in $238,143 and $8,286 of intangibleno impairment expenses duringcharges for the ninethree months ended ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and 2021,2022, respectively.

 

Software Development Costs

 

Software development costs include direct costs incurred for internally developed products and payments made to independent software developers and/or contract engineers. The Company accounts for software development costs in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") guidance for the costs of computer software to be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed (Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 985-20, Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Marketed, or “ASC Subtopic 985-20”). Software development costs are capitalized once the technological feasibility of a product is established, and such costs are determined to be recoverable. The technological feasibility of a product encompasses technical design documentation and integration documentation, or the completed and tested product design and working model. Software development costs are capitalized once the technological feasibility of a product is established and such costs are determined to be recoverable against future revenues. Technological feasibility is evaluated on a project-by-project basis. Amounts related to software development that are not capitalized are charged immediately to the appropriate expense account. Amounts that are considered ‘research and development’ that are not capitalized are immediately charged to engineering, research, and development expense.

 

Capitalized costs for those products that are canceled or abandoned are charged to product development expenses in the period of cancellation. Commencing upon product release, capitalized software development costs are amortized to “Amortization Expense - Development” based on the straight-line method over a twenty-four-month period.

 

The Company evaluates the future recoverability of capitalized software development costs on an annual basis. For products that have been released in prior years, the primary evaluation criterion is ongoing relations with the customer. The Company’s evaluation of its capitalized software development assets resulted in no impairment charges of $0 for the quarterthree months ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and $0 for the year ended December 31, 20212022,. respectively

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

We evaluate long-lived assets (including intangible assets) for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. An asset is considered impaired if its carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flow the asset is expected to generate.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The Company translates the financial statements of its foreign subsidiary from the local (functional) currency into US Dollars using the year or reporting period end or average exchange rates in accordance with the requirements of ASC subtopic 830-10, Foreign Currency Matters (“ASC 830-10”). Assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries were translated at exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates in effect for the periods presented. The cumulative translation adjustment is included in the accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) within shareholders’ equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.

 

Revenue Recognition and Concentrations

 

Our Recurrency platform is a hosted solution. We generate revenue from licensing our software to clients in our software as a service model, per-message and per-minute transactional fees, and customized professional services. We recognize license/subscription fees over the period of the contract, service fees as the services are performed, and per-message or per-minute transaction revenue when the transaction takes place. Under Topic 606, revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. We consider authoritative guidance on multiple deliverables in determining whether each deliverable represents a separate unit of accounting. Some customers are billed on a month-to-month basis with no contractual term and fees are collected by credit card. Revenue is recognized at the time that the services are rendered, and the selling price is fixed with a set range of plans. Cash received in advance of the performance of services is recorded as deferred revenue.

 

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), is a comprehensive revenue recognition standard that superseded nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2018, applying the modified retrospective method. Upon adoption, the Company discontinued revenue deferral under the sell-through model and commenced recording revenue upon delivery to distributors, net of estimated returns. Generally, the new standard results in earlier recognition of revenues.

 

We determine revenue recognition under ASC 606 through the following steps:

 

 

identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;

 

identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

 

identification of the transaction price;

 

allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

 

recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

 

During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and 20212022, two customers accounted for 50%51% and 54%53% of our revenues, respectively.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

Comprehensive loss is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. We are required to record all components of comprehensive loss in the consolidated financial statements in the period in which they are recognized. Net loss and other comprehensive loss, including foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on investments, are reported, net of their related tax effect, to arrive at a comprehensive loss. For the ninethree months ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and 20212022, the comprehensive loss was $6,810,412,$2,446,673, and $4,132,347$1,945,994 respectively.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

We primarily issue stock-based awards to employees in the form of stock options. We determine compensation expense associated with stock options based on the estimated grant date fair value method using the Black-Scholes valuation model. We recognize compensation expense using a straight-line amortization method over the respective vesting period.

 

Research and Development Expenditures

 

Research and development expenditures are expensed as incurred, and consist primarily of compensation costs, outside services, and expensed materials.

 

Advertising Expense

 

Direct advertising costs are expensed as incurred and consist primarily of trade shows, sales enablement, content creation, paid engagement and other direct costs. Advertising expense was $315,540$54,248 and $698,761$163,734 for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and 20212022, respectively. The decrease in advertising expense is due to lower engagement and content creation costs.

 

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes using the assets and liability method, which recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established to reduce deferred tax assets when, based on available objective evidence, it is more likely than not that the benefit of such assets will not be realized. We recognize in the consolidated financial statements only those tax positions determined to be more likely than not of being sustained.

 

Net Loss Per Common Share

 

Basic net loss per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, shares subject to repurchase, and warrants. Diluted net loss per share includes the impact of potentially dilutive securities. During the three and ninemonths ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 and 20212022, we had securities outstanding which could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future. ThoseStock based compensation, stock options and warrants were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share when their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Accounting standards promulgated by the FASB are subject to change. Changes in such standards may have an impact on the Company’s future financial statements. The following is a summary of recent accounting developments.

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”). ASU 2020-06 requires that the if-converted method of computing diluted Earnings per Share. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2022.

 

 

3. Going Concern

 

We had $1.0 millioin$2,581,597 of cash as of September 30, 2022. March 31, 2023. We had a net loss of $6.7 million$2,478,175 for the ninethree months then endedMarch 31, 2023, and we used $5.0 million$1,443,464 of cash in our operating activities during that time. In the 2021,three months ended March 31, 2022 we had a net loss of $4.1 million$1,933,099 and used $3.2 million$1,813,845 of cash in our operating expenses. We raised $2.6$3.6 million in cash from the exercise of warrants in February 2022 andof 2023. There is substantial doubt that our additional cash from our warrant conversion along with our expected cash flow from operations, will be sufficient to fund our 12-month plan of operations, there can be no assurance that we have raised $2.1 million in Private Placement financing to date.will not require significant additional capital within 12 months.

 

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred net losses from operations resulting in an accumulated deficit of $114.6$120.4 million as of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023. Further losses are anticipated in the development of the Company’s business raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next 12 months with proceeds from the sale of securities, and/or revenues from operations. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

ACOA Note

 

On November 6, 2017, Livelenz (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company), entered into an amendment of the original agreement dated December 2, 2014, with the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (“ACOA”). Under this agreement, the note will mature, and the commitments will terminate on February 1, 2024. The monthly principal payment amount of $3,000 CAD increased to $3,500 CAD beginning on November 1, 2019, $4,000 CAD on August 1, 2021, $4,500 CAD on August 1, 2022, and $2,215 CAD during the remaining term of the agreement. Payments from April- December of 2020 were voluntarily deferred by ACOA due to COVID-19.

During the ninethree months ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 we repaid $32,263$9,878 USD of principal.

 

Chase Loan

On April 10,2020, we entered into a commitment loan with Chase Bank, N.A. under the CARES act and SBA Paycheck Protection Program, in the principal aggregate amount of $891,103, which is due and payable two years after issuance. This note bears interest on the unpaid balance at the rate of one percent (1%) per annum. The note contains a deferral period of six months, for which no interest or principal payments are due. Forgiveness of the loan may be obtained by meeting certain SBA requirements. The entire loan was forgiven on July 21, 2021, at which time the company recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt in the amount of $891,103.

TD Bank Loan

 

On April 22, 2020, we entered into a commitment loan with TD Bank under the Canadian Emergency Business Account (“CEBA”), in the principal aggregate amount of $40,000 CAD, which is due and payable on December 31, 2023. This note bears interest on the unpaid balance at the rate of zero percent (0%) per annum during the initial term. Under this note, no interest or principal payments are due until December 31, 2023. Under the conditions of the loan, thirty-three percent (33%) of the loan will be forgiven if sixty-seven percent (67%) is repaid prior to the initial term date.

The expected life of the stock options represents the weighted-average period that the stock options are expected to remain outstanding and was determined based on the historical experience of similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms of the stock-based awards, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee behavior as influenced by changes to the terms of the Company's stock-based awards.

 

The dividend yield assumption is based on our history of not paying dividends and no future expectations of dividend payouts.

 

The expected volatility in 20222023 and 20212022 is based on the historical publicly traded price of our common stock.

9. Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the authoritative guidance establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: (Level 1) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; (Level 2) inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly; and (Level 3) unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires us to develop our own assumptions. This hierarchy requires companies to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. On a recurring basis, we measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value.

 

The following table presents assets that are measured and recognized at fair value as of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 on a recurring and non-recurring basis:

Overview

 

Mobivity Holdings Corp. (the “Company” or “we”) is in the business of developing and operating proprietary platforms over which brands and enterprises can conduct national and localized data-driven marketing campaigns.

 

Mobivity’s Recurrency platform enables multi-unit retailers to leverage the power of their own data to yield maximum customer spend, frequency and loyalty while achieving the highest Return on Marketing Spend (ROMS) possible. Mobivity’s customers use Recurrency to:

 

 

Transform messy point-of-sale (POS) data collected from thousands of points of sale into usable intelligence.

 

Measure, predict, and boost guest frequency and spend by channel.

 

Deploy and manage one-time use offer codes and attribute sales accurately across every channel, promotion, and media program.

 

Deliver 1:1 promotions and offers with customized Mobile Messaging, Personalized Receipt Promotions, and Integrated Loyalty programs.

 

Mobivity’s Recurrency, delivered as a Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) platform, is used by leading brands including Subway, Sonic Drive-In, Baskin Robbins, Chick-fil-A and Checkers/Rally’s across more than 40,000 retail locations globally.

 

We’re living in a data-driven economy. By 2003 — when the concept of “Big Data” became common vernacular in marketing - the amount of data being created every two days was equal to the amount created in all of the time prior to 2003. Today, 90% of the world’s data has been created in just the past two years. Unfortunately, despite there being so much data accumulated, only one percent of data is being utilized today by most businesses.

 

The challenge for multi-unit retailers isn’t that they don’t have enough data; in fact, national retailers are collecting millions of detailed transactions daily from thousands of points of sale around the world. The challenge is being able to make sense of this transaction data, which is riddled with data entry errors, collected by multiple POS systems, and complicated by a taxonomy compiled by thousands of different franchisee owners. To normalize such an overwhelming amount of data into usable intelligence and then leverage it to optimize media investment and promotion strategy requires numerous teams of data analysts and data scientists that many retailers and restaurant operators simply don’t have. This is why so many technology and data companies, that can help solve these challenges, have been invested in and acquired by brands including, McDonald’s, Starbucks, and Yum Brands.

 

Mobivity’s Recurrency platform fills this need with a self-service SaaS offering, enabling operators to intelligently optimize their promotions, media, and marketing spend. Recurrency drives system-wide sales producing on average a 13% increase in guest spend and a 26% improvement in frequency, ultimately delivering an average Return on Marketing Spend of 10X. In other words, for every dollar invested in marketing, retailers using Recurrency to manage, optimize and deliver multi-channel consumer promotions generate an average of ten dollars in incremental revenue from their customers.

 

The Recurrency Platform

 

Mobivity’s Recurrency™ platform unlocks valuable POS and mobile data to help transform customer transactions into actionable and attributable marketing insights. Our technology provides transactional data, in real-time, that uncovers market-basket information and attributes both online and traditional promotions. Recurrency is comprised of seven components, described in detail below.

 

POS Data Capture

 

Recurrency captures, normalizes, integrates, and stores transaction data and is compatible with most POS systems used by restaurants and retailers today. The result is a clean useful dataset upon which to predict and influence customers’ buying behavior and deliver basket-level insights.

 

Analytics Powered by Machine Learning

 

Recurrency uses Machine Learning (“ML”) to uncover patterns in the buying behaviors of consumers and leverages that data to suggest pricing optimizations, and guide marketing campaigns.

 

Offers and Promotions

 

Recurrency provides a digital wallet system for creating and managing dynamic offers and promotions, enabling accurate and complete closed-loop attribution across all channels, media, and marketing efforts. Retailers can deploy one-time, limited-use, and multi-use promotions across all online and offline marketing channels that are scannable at the POS or redeemable online, enabling fraud-free, controllable promotion delivery and attribution at scale. Marketing teams can use the comprehensive attribution analysis and insights to optimize media mix and spend for maximum Return on Marketing Spend (“ROMS”).

Predictive Offers

 

Recurrency leverages the normalized data captured at the POS and applies Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) to build profiles of both known and anonymous customers, analyzes pre and post-redemption behavior, and then predicts offers that will drive the highest increases in customer spend and frequency at the lowest discount possible. The result is optimized, personalized promotions that produce the highest ROMS possible.

 

Personalized Receipt Promotions

 

Recurrency unlocks the power of transactional data to create relevant and timely customer messages printed on the receipts already being generated at the POS. Both clients and agencies are using Recurrency to drive better results and make decisions around offers, promotions, and customer engagement through the medium of the printed receipt. Software integrated with leading POS systems, such as Oracle or MICROS, or installed directly onto receipt printer platforms, such as Epson’s OmniLink product, dynamically controls what is printed on receipts including images, coupons, announcements, or other calls-to-action, such as invitations to participate in a survey. Recurrency offers a Web-based interface where users can design receipt content and implement business rules to dictate what receipt content is printed in particular situations. All receipt content is transmitted to cloud-based Recurrency for storage and analysis.

 

Customized Mobile Messaging

 

Recurrency transforms standard short message service (“SMS”), multimedia messaging service (“MMS”), and rich communication services (“RCS”) into a data-driven marketing medium. Recurrency tracks and measures offer effectiveness at a more granular level than other solutions, allowing clients to create smarter offers and drive higher redemption rates. Our proprietary platform connects to all wireless carriers so that any consumer, on any wireless service (for example, Verizon), can join our customer’s SMS/MMS mobile marketing campaign. Our customers use Recurrency’s self-service interface to build, segment, target and optimize mobile messaging campaigns to drive increased guest frequency and spend. Recurrency is an industry leader in RCS messaging and has an industry-leading broadcast reach.

 

Belly Loyalty

 

Mobivity’s Belly Loyalty solution drives increased customer engagement and frequency with a customer-facing digital rewards platform via an app and digital pad. Using Belly, customers can customize rewards and leverage pre-built email campaigns and triggers to encourage greater frequency as well as to identify and reactivate lapsed customers.

 

Company Strategy

 

Our objective is to build an industry-leading SaaS product that connects consumers to merchants and brands. The key elements of our strategy are:

 

 

Exploit the competitive advantages and operating leverage of our technology platform. The core of our business is our proprietary POS Data Capture technology. Several years of development went into designing POS Data Capture such that the process of intercepting POS data and performing actions, such as controlling the receipt printer with receipt is scalable, portable to a wide variety of POS platforms, and does not impact performance factors including the print speed of a typical receipt printer. Furthermore, we believe the transmission of POS data to Mobivity’s cloud-based data stores presents a very competitive and innovative method of enabling POS data access. Additionally, we believe that our Recurrency platform is more advanced than technologies offered by our competitors and provides us with a significant competitive advantage. With more than ten years of development, we believe that our platform operates SMS/MMS text messaging transactions at a “least cost” relative to competitors while also being capable of supporting the SMS/MMS text messaging transactional volume necessary to serve our goal of several thousand end users. Leveraging our Recurrency platform allows for full attribution of SMS/MMS offers, which we believe is a unique combination of both SMS/MMS text messaging and POS data.

 

Evolve our sales and customer support infrastructure to uniquely serve very large customer implementations such as franchise-based brands that operate a large number of locations. Over the past few years, we have focused our efforts on the development of our technology and solutions with the goal of selling and supporting small and medium-sized businesses. Going forward, we intend to significantly increase our investments in sales and customer support resources tailored to selling to customers that operate franchise brands. Today we support more than 30,000 merchant locations globally.

 

Acquire complementary businesses and technologies. We will continue to search and identify unique opportunities which we believe will enhance our product features and functionality, revenue goals, and technology. We intend to target companies with some or all of the following characteristics: (1) an established revenue base; (2) strong pipeline and growth prospects; (3) break-even or positive cash flow; (4) opportunities for substantial expense reductions through integration into our platform; (5) strong sales teams; and (6) technology and services that further build out and differentiate our platform. Our acquisitions have historically been consummated through the issuance of a combination of our common stock and cash.

 

Build our intellectual property portfolio. We currently have nine issued patents that we believe have significant potential applications in the technology industry. We plan to continue our investment in building a strong intellectual property portfolio.

 

While these are the key elements of our current strategy, there can be no guarantees that our strategy will not change or that our strategy will be successful.

Foreign Currency

 

The Company’s financial results are impacted by volatility in the Canadian/U.S. Dollar exchange rate. The average U.S. Dollar exchange rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, was $1 Canadian equals $0.78$0.74 U.S. Dollars. This compares to an average rate of $1 Canadian equals $0.79 during the same period in 2021.2022. The Company’s functional or measurement currency is the U.S. Dollar. Based on a U.S. Dollar functional currency, the following are the key areas impacted by foreign currency volatility:

 

 

The Company sells products primarily in U.S. Dollars; therefore, reported revenues are not highly impacted by foreign currency volatility.

 

A portion of the Company’s expenses are incurred in Canadian Dollars and therefore fluctuate in U.S. Dollars as the U.S. Dollar varies. A weaker U.S. Dollar results in an increase in translated expenses, and a stronger U.S. Dollar results in a decrease.

 

Changes in foreign currency rates also impact the translated value of the Company’s working capital that is held in Canadian Dollars. Foreign exchange rate fluctuations result in foreign exchange gains or losses based upon movement in the translated value of Canadian working capital into U.S. Dollars.

 

The change in foreign currency was a loss of  $76,228$31,502 and a loss of $13,150$12,895 for the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2023 and 2022, and 2021, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2022,March 31, 2023, we had current assets of $2,139,214,$3,544,522, including $1,016,745$2,581,597 in cash, and current liabilities of $7,228,819,$6,602,830, resulting in a working capital deficit of $5,089,605.$3,058,308.

 

We believe as of the date of this report, we do not have the working capital on hand, along with our expected cash flow from operations and budget reductions, to sufficiently fund our current level of operations through the end of the next 12 months or beyond. We will require additional capital and will seek to obtain additional working capital through the sale of our securities and, if available, bank lines of credit. There can be no assurance we will be able to obtain access to capital as and when needed, or that the terms of any available financing will be commercially reasonable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e), as of the end of the period covered by this report. "Disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e),  are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, , including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that as of September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

As a small company with limited resources that are mainly focused on the development and sales of software products and services, the Company does not employ a sufficient number of staff in its finance department to possess an optimal segregation of duties or to provide optimal levels of oversight. This has resulted in certain audit adjustments and management believes that there may be a possibility for a material misstatement to occur in future periods while it employs the current number of personnel in its finance department.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, that occurred during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2022March 31, 2023 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
