The Company is an “emerging growth company”, as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”).

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had not yet commenced any operations. All activity for the period from August 20, 2020 (inception) through June 30, 2021 relates pursuant to the Company’s formation and the Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) described below, and, since the closing of the IPO, a search for a Businessbusiness combination agreement (the “Business Combination candidate. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income on cash and cash equivalents from the proceeds derived from the IPO and will recognize changes in the fair value of warrant liability as other income (expense).

Financing

The registration statement for the Company’s IPO was declared effective on October 29, 2020 (the “Effective Date”) by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). On November 3, 2020, the Company consummated the IPO of 10,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares of common stock included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”Agreement”), at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $100,000,000, which is discussed in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, the Company consummated the sale of 500,000 private units (the “Private Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Private Unit in a private placement to New Beginnings Sponsor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), generating gross proceeds of $5,000,000, which is described in Note 4.

The Company granted the underwriters in the IPO a 45-day option to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments, if any. On November 9, 2020, the underwriters partially exercised the over-allotment option to purchase 1,000,000 Units (the “Over-Allotment Units”), and on November 12, 2020, the underwriters fully exercised the over-allotment option to purchase the remaining 500,000 Over-Allotment Units, generating an aggregate of gross proceeds of $15,000,000, and incurred $300,000 in cash underwriting fees.

Simultaneously with the closing of the exercise of the overallotment option, the Company completed the private sale of an aggregate of 45,000 Private Units to the Sponsor, at a purchase price of $10 per Private Units, generating gross proceeds of $450,000.

Upon closing of the IPO, the Private Placement, and the sale of the Over-Allotment Units, a total of $116,150,000 ($10.10 per Unit) was placed in the Trust Account (as defined below).

Transaction costs amounted to $6,731,655 consisting of $2,300,000 of underwriting fee, $4,025,000 of deferred underwriting fee, and $406,655 of other offering costs.

Trust Account

Following the closing of the IPO on November 3, 2020 and the exercise of the over-allotment option, $116,150,000 ($10.10 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the IPO and the sale of the Private Units was placed in a trust account (the “Trust Account”), which can only be invested in United States “government securities” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), having a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions of Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act which invest only on direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to the Company to pay its tax obligations and up to $100,000 of interest for its dissolution expenses, the proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Units will not be released from the Trust Account until the earliest to occur of (a) the completion of a Business Combination, (b) the redemption of any Public Shares properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, and (c) the redemption of the Company’s Public Shares if the Company is unable to complete the initial Business Combination within 12 months (or up to 18 months if the Company extends the period of time to consummate a Business Combination) from November 3, 2020 (the “Combination Period”), the closing of the IPO.

Initial Business Combination

The Company’s Business Combination must be with one or more target businesses that together have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance in the Trust Account (net of taxes payable) at the time of the signing an agreement to enter into a Business Combination. However, the Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination.

The Company will provide its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their shares of common stock upon the completion of the initial Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the initial Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a proposed initial Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The stockholders will be entitled to redeem their shares for a pro rata share of the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account (initially approximately $10.10 per share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations). 

If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will redeem 100% of the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, subject to applicable law and as further described in registration statement, and then seek to dissolve and liquidate.

The Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed to (i) waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares, any placement shares and any public shares held by them in connection with the completion of the initial Business Combination, (ii) waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares, any placement shares and public shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, and (iii) waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to their founder shares and placement shares if the Company fails to complete the initial Business Combination within the Combination Period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had cash outside the Trust Account of $68,386 available for working capital needs. All remaining cash held in the Trust Account are generally unavailable for the Company’s use, prior to an initial Business Combination, and is restricted for use either in a Business Combination or to redeem common stock. As of June 30, 2021, none of the amount in the Trust Account was available to be withdrawn as described above.

Through June 30, 2021, the Company’s liquidity needs were satisfied through receipt of $25,000 from the sale of the founder shares, advances from the Sponsor in an aggregate amount of $120,000 which were repaid upon the IPO (as described in Note 5) and the remaining net proceeds from the IPO, the sale of the Over-allotment Units and the sale of Private Units (as described in Note 3 and 4).Closing.

The Company believes it will need to raise additional fundsmarket for the Company’s wireless systems includes mobile carriers, other public network operators and private and government network operators for command and control in order to meetindustrial and public safety applications such as smart utilities, defense, transportation, mining and oil and gas. The Company’s strategy applies the expenditures required for operating its business. The Company will need to raise additional capital through loans from its Sponsor, officers, directors, or third parties. None of the Sponsor, officers or directors are under any obligation to advance funds to, or to invest in, the Company. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, it may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuit of its business plan, and reducing overhead expenses. The Company cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to it on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.same network technology across all addressable sectors.

 

Going Concern ConsiderationThe Company’s main operations are in Slough, United Kingdom; Mumbai and Bangalore, India; Tokyo, Japan; Airport City, Israel; Santa Clara, California; and the Company’s corporate headquarters are in the United States (“U.S.”) in Boca Raton, Florida.

 

2.BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $68,386 in cash and a working capital deficiency of $1,249,774. The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur significant costs in pursuit of its financing and acquisition plans. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern one year from the issuance date of the condensed financial statements. Management plans to address this uncertainty through loans from its Sponsor, officers, directors, or third parties. None of the Sponsor, officers or directors are under any obligation to advance funds to, or to invest in, the Company. There is no assurance that the Company’s plans to raise capital or to consummate a Business Combination will be successful. The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statement with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities atin the date of thecondensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company did 0t have any cash equivalents as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Investment Held in Trust Account

At June 30, 2021, the assets held in the Trust Account were held in treasury funds.

At December 31, 2020, investment held in Trust Account consist of United States Treasury securities. The Company classifies its United States Treasury securities as held-to-maturity in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 320 “Investments - Debt and Equity Securities.” Held-to-maturity securities are those securities which the Company has the ability and intent to hold until maturity. Held-to-maturity treasury securities are recorded at amortized cost and adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts.

A decline in the market value of held-to-maturity securities below cost that is deemed to be other than temporary, results in an impairment that reduces the carrying costs to such securities’ fair value. The impairment is charged to earnings and a new cost basis for the security is established. To determine whether an impairment is other than temporary, the Company considers whether it has the ability and intent to hold the investment until a market price recovery and considers whether evidence indicating the cost of the investment is recoverable outweighs evidence to the contrary. Evidence considered in this assessment includes the reasons for the impairment, the severity and the duration of the impairment, changes in value subsequent to year-end, forecasted performance of the investee, and the general market condition in the geographic area or industry the investee operates in.

Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the life of the related held-to-maturity security as an adjustment to yield using the effective-interest method. Such amortization and accretion is included in the “interest income” line item in the statements of income. Interest income is recognized when earned.

Fair Value Measurements

FASB ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”) defines fair value, the methods used to measure fair value and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between the buyer and the seller at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach and cost approach shall be used to measure fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy for inputs, which represent the assumptions used by the buyer and seller in pricing the asset or liability. These inputs are further defined as observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are those that buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the inputs that the buyer and seller would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:

Level 1 — Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not being applied. Since valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these securities does not entail a significant degree of judgment.Liquidity

9

Level 2 — Valuations based on (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in markets that are not active for identical or similar assets, (iii) inputs other than quoted prices for the assets or liabilities, or (iv) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by market through correlation or other means.

Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

The fair value of the Company’s certain assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the balance sheet. The fair values of cash, accounts payable and due to related party are estimated to approximate the carrying values as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 due to the short maturities of such instruments.

The fair value of Private Placement Warrants is based on a valuation model utilizing management judgment and pricing inputs from observable and unobservable markets with less volume and transaction frequency than active markets. Significant deviations from these estimates and inputs could result in a material change in fair value. The fair value of the Private Placement Warrants is classified as level 3. See Note 6 for additional information on assets and liabilities measured at fair value.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s common stock feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to the occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 9,060,042 and 9,521,649 shares of common stock subject to possible redemption, respectively, are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheets.

Net Loss Per Share of Common Stock

Net loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding for each of the periods. The calculation of diluted loss per share of common stock does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the (i) IPO, (ii) exercise of overallotment option granted in connection with the IPO and (iii) Private Placement since the exercise of the warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future events. The warrants are exercisable to purchase 12,045,000 shares of common stock in the aggregate. 

The Company’s condensed statements of loss include a presentation of loss per share for common stock subject to possible redemption in a manner similar to the two-class method of income per share of common stock. Net loss per share of common stock, basic and diluted, for redeemable common stock is calculated by dividing the interest income earned on the Trust Account, by the weighted average number of redeemable common stock outstanding since original issuance. Net loss per share of common stock, basic and diluted, for non-redeemable common stock is calculated by dividing the net loss, adjusted for income attributable to redeemable common stock, by the weighted average number of non-redeemable common stock outstanding for the periods. Non-redeemable common stock includes the founder shares as these common stocks do not have any redemption features and do not participate in the income earned on the Trust Account.

Offering Costs

The Company complies with the requirements of the ASC 340-10-S99-1 and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 5A - “Expenses of Offering”. Offering costs consist principally of professional and registration fees incurred that were related to the IPO. Offering costs were allocated to the separable financial instruments issued in the IPO based on a relative fair value basis compared to total proceeds received. Offering costs associated with warrant liabilities were expensed, and offering costs associated with the common stock were charged to the stockholders’ equity.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Derivative instruments are recorded at fair value on the grant date and re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statement of income. Derivative assets and liabilities are classified on the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date. The Company has determined the warrants are a derivative instrument.

FASB ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options addresses the allocation of proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt into its equity and debt components. The Company applies this guidance to allocate IPO proceeds from the Units between common stock and warrants, using the residual method by allocating IPO proceeds first to fair value of the warrants and then the common stock.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.

11

ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statement and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition.

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.

 

The Company has identifiedhistorically incurred losses from operations. In the United Statespast, these losses have been financed through cash on hand or capital raising activities including borrowings or the sale of newly issued shares.

6

The Company had $133.6 million of current assets and $71.9 million of current liabilities as of March 31, 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company used $14.9 million in cash flow from operating activities. The Company is investing heavily in 5G research and development and the Company expects to continue to use cash from operations during the remainder of 2022 and through the first half of 2023. Cash on hand and borrowing capacity under our Assignment Agreement, Resignation and Assignment Agreement and Credit Agreement (the “Fortress Credit Agreement”) with DBFIP ANI LLC (“Fortress”) (see Notes 7 and 9) may not allow the Company to reasonably expect to meet its only “major” tax jurisdiction.forecasted cash requirements.

In order to address the need to satisfy the Company’s continuing obligations and realize its long-term strategy, management has taken several steps and is considering additional actions to improve its operating and financial results, which the Company expects will be sufficient to meet the prospective covenants of the Company’s senior secured convertible notes and senior term loan and provide the ability to continue as a going concern, including the following:

focusing the Company’s efforts to increase sales in additional geographic markets;

continuing to develop 5G product offerings that will expand the market for the Company’s products; and

continuing to evaluate and implement cost reduction initiatives to reduce non-strategic costs in operations and expand the Company’s labor force in lower cost geographies.

COVID-19 Update

The spread of COVID-19, a novel strain of coronavirus, has and continues to alter the behavior of business and people in a manner that is having negative effects on local, regional and global economies. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to have an impact with short-term disruptions on our supply chains, as governments take robust actions to minimize the spread of localized COVID-19 outbreaks. The continued impact on our supply chains has caused delayed production and fulfilment of customer orders, disruptions and delays of logistics and increased logistic costs. As a further consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic, component lead times have extended as demand outstrips supply on certain components, including semiconductors, and has caused the costs of components to increase. These extended lead times have caused us to extend our forecast horizon with our contract manufacturing partners and have increased the risk of supply delays. The Company cannot at this time accurately predict what effects, or their extent, the coronavirus outbreak will have on the remainder of its 2022 operating results, due to uncertainties relating to the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, component shortages and increased component costs, the length of voluntary business closures, and governmental actions taken in response to the outbreak. More generally, the widespread health crisis has and may continue to adversely affect the global economy, resulting in an economic downturn that could affect demand for our products and therefore impact the Company’s results.

Significant Concentrations

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk, consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents in highly rated financial instruments. The Company maintains certain of its cash balances in various U.S. banks, which at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on such accounts.

The Company’s accounts receivable are derived from sales of its products and approximately 66.9% and 71.3% of product sales were to non-U.S. customers for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Two customers accounted for $29.8 million or 59.8% of the net accounts receivable balance as of March 31, 2022 and two customers accounted for $17.4 million or 53.7% of the net accounts receivable balance as of March 31, 2021. The Company requires payment in advance or payment security in the form of a letter of credit to be in place at the time of shipment, except in cases where credit risk is considered to be acceptable. The Company’s top three customers accounted for 73.1% and 60.7% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company had three customers whose revenue was greater than 10% of the three month period’s total revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company had one customer whose revenue was greater than 10% of the three month period’s total revenue.

 

The Company may be subject to potential examination by federalreceived 88.1% and state taxing authorities95.5% of goods for resale from five suppliers in the areasthree months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company outsources the manufacturing of income taxes since inception. These potential examinations may include questioningits base station products to contract manufacturers and obtains subscriber terminals from vendors in the timingAsia Pacific region. In the event of a disruption to supply, the Company would be able to transfer the manufacturing of base stations to alternate contract manufacturers and amounthas alternate suppliers for the majority of deductions, the nexus of income among various tax jurisdictions and compliance with federal and state tax laws. The Company’s management does not expect that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will materially change over the next twelve months.subscriber terminals.

The provision for income taxes was deemed immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.

Risks and Uncertainties

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s financial statements and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2020, the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASUAccounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-06, Debt-DebtDebt — Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-ContractsHedging — Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)(Subtopic 815-40): Accounting”. This ASU simplifies the accounting for Convertible Instrumentscertain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The FASB reduced the number of accounting models for convertible debt and convertible preferred stock instruments and made certain disclosure amendments to improve the information provided to users.

The ASU also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity-linked contracts to qualify for scope exception, and it simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas.  The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2021.  Adoption2022, and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” which provides optional expedient and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. In response to the concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates (“IBORs”) and, particularly, the risk of cessation of the LIBOR, regulators in several jurisdictions around the world have undertaken reference rate reform initiatives to identify alternative reference rates that are more observable or transaction based and less susceptible to manipulation. This ASU provides companies with optional guidance to ease the potential accounting burden associated with transitioning away from reference rates that are expected to be discontinued. This new standard must be adopted by the Company no later than December 1, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The potential adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 (amended by ASU 2019-10), “Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, regarding the measurement of credit losses for certain financial instruments.” which replaces the incurred loss model with a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model. The CECL model is based on historical experience, adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The Company is required to adopt the new guidance on January 1, 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

3.THE BUSINESS COMBINATION

On August 13, 2021, the Company and Legacy Airspan completed the Business Combination, with Legacy Airspan surviving the Business Combination as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Company was renamed Airspan Networks Holdings Inc. Cash proceeds from the Business Combination totaled approximately $115.5 million, which included funds held in NBA’s trust account and the completion of the concurrent private placement (the “PIPE” or “PIPE Financing”) of shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) and sale of the Company’s senior secured convertible notes (the “Convertible Notes Financing”).

In accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, at the effective time of the Business Combination, each share of Legacy Airspan capital stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing automatically converted into and became the right to receive a specified number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock, warrants exercisable to purchase one share of the Company’s Common Stock at a price of $12.50 per share (the “Post-Combination $12.50 Warrants”), warrants exercisable to purchase one share of the Company’s Common Stock at a price of $15.00 per share (the “Post-Combination $15.00 Warrants”) and warrants exercisable to purchase one share of the Company’s Common Stock at a price of $17.50 per share (the “Post-Combination $17.50 Warrants” and the Post-Combination $17.50 Warrants, together with the Post-Combination $12.50 Warrants and Post-Combination $15.00 Warrants, the “Post-Combination Warrants”). The aggregate transaction consideration paid in the Business Combination was (i) 59,426,486 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, (ii) 3,000,000 Post-Combination $12.50 Warrants, (iii) 3,000,000 Post-Combination $15.00 Warrants, (iv) 3,000,000 Post-Combination $17.50 Warrants and (v) $17,500,000 in cash. The aggregate transaction consideration was allocated among the holders of shares of Legacy Airspan capital stock (including holders of shares of Airspan capital stock issued pursuant to the net exercise of warrants to purchase Legacy Airspan capital stock and holders of shares of Legacy Airspan restricted stock), holders of Legacy Airspan stock options and participants (the “MIP Participants”) in Legacy Airspan’s Management Incentive Plan (the “MIP”).

8

Prior to the Business Combination, the Company (then known as New Beginnings Acquisition Corp.) issued 11,500,000 public warrants (the “Public Warrants”) and 545,000 private placement warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”, and the Public Warrants together with the Private Placement Warrants, the “Common Stock Warrants”). Following the Business Combination, the Common Stock Warrants remain exercisable for Common Stock of the Company. All other features of the Common Stock Warrants remained unchanged. There were no cash obligations for the Company pertaining to these Common Stock Warrants.

Prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, holders of an aggregate of 9,997,049 shares of Common Stock sold in NBA’s initial public offering exercised their right to have such shares redeemed for a full pro rata portion of the trust account holding the proceeds from NBA’s initial public offering, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, which was approximately $10.10 per share, or $101.0 million in the aggregate.

At Closing, the Company filed a second amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Restated Certificate of Incorporation”). Among other things, the Restated Certificate of Incorporation increased the number of shares of (a) Common Stock the Company is authorized to issue from 100,000,000 shares to 250,000,000 shares and (b) preferred stock the Company is authorized to issue from 1,000,000 shares to 10,000,000 shares.

In connection with the Closing of the Business Combination, certain former stockholders of Legacy Airspan (the “Legacy Airspan Holders”) and certain NBA stockholders (the “Sponsor Holders”) entered into a registration rights and lock-up agreement (the “Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement”). Subject to certain exceptions, the Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement provided that 44,951,960 shares of Common Stock, as well as 2,271,026 Post-Combination $12.50 Warrants, 2,271,026 Post-Combination $15.00 Warrants and 2,271,026 Post-Combination $17.50 Warrants (and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Post-Combination Warrants), in each case, held by the Legacy Airspan Holders were locked-up for a period of six months following the Closing, while the 2,750,000 shares of Common Stock held by the Sponsor Holders will be locked-up for a period of one year following the Closing, in each case subject to earlier release upon (i) the date on which the last reported sale price of the Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share for any 20 trading days within any 30-day trading period or (ii) the date on which we complete a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction after the Closing that results in all of our stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of our Common Stock for cash, securities or other property. The Registration Rights and Lock-Up Agreement also provided that the Private Placement Warrants and shares of Common Stock underlying the units sold by NBA in a private placement concurrent with its initial public offering (the “Private Placement Units”), along with any shares of Common Stock underlying the Private Placement Warrants, were locked-up for a period of 30 days following the Closing so long as such securities were held by the initial purchasers of the Private Placement Units or their permitted transferees.

The Company accounted for the Business Combination as a reverse recapitalization, which is the equivalent of Legacy Airspan issuing stock for the net assets of New Beginnings, accompanied by a recapitalization, with New Beginnings treated as the acquired company for accounting purposes. The determination of New Beginnings as the “acquired” company for accounting purposes was primarily based on the fact that subsequent to the Business Combination, Legacy Airspan comprised all of the ongoing operations of the combined entity, a majority of the governing body of the combined company and Legacy Airspan’s senior management comprised all of the senior management of the combined company. The net assets of New Beginnings were stated at historical cost with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Reported results from operations included herein prior to the Business Combination are those of Legacy Airspan. The shares and corresponding capital amounts and loss per share related to Legacy Airspan’s outstanding convertible preferred stock and common stock prior to the Business Combination have been retroactively restated to reflect the conversion ratio established pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement.

In connection with the Business Combination, the Company incurred underwriting fees and other costs considered direct and incremental to the transaction totaling $27.0 million, consisting of legal, accounting, financial advisory and other professional fees. These amounts are reflected within additional paid-in capital in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

PIPE Financing

Concurrent with the execution of the Business Combination, the Company entered into subscription agreements with certain investors (the “PIPE Investors”) pursuant to which the PIPE Investors subscribed for and purchased an aggregate of 7,500,000 shares of Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $75.0 million.

9

Convertible Notes Financing

Concurrent with the execution of the Business Combination, the Company issued $50,000,000 aggregate principal amount of senior secured convertible notes (the “Convertible Notes”). The Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate equal to 7.0% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, beginning on September 30, 2021. The Convertible Notes mature on December 30, 2024, unless earlier accelerated, converted, redeemed or repurchased. The Convertible Notes are pari passu in right of payment and lien priority and are secured by a security interest in (a) all of the real, personal and mixed property in which liens are granted or purported to be granted pursuant to any of the collateral documents as security for the obligations, (b) all products, proceeds, rents and profits of such property, (c) all of each loan party’s book and records and (d) all of the foregoing whether now owned or existing, in each case excluding certain excluded assets.

At Closing, each Convertible Note, together with all accrued but unpaid interest, was convertible, in whole or in part, at the option of the holder, at any time prior to the payment in full of the principal amount (together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon), into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to $12.50 per share (see Note10).

7.SUBORDINATED DEBT

On August 6, 2015, Legacy Airspan issued Golden Wayford Limited a $10.0 million subordinated Convertible Promissory Note (the “Golden Wayford Note”) pursuant to a Subordinated Convertible Note Purchase Agreement. The Golden Wayford Note was amended and restated on November 28, 2017, to reduce the interest rate thereon and to reflect the application of the payment of $1.0 million of principal on such note. The Golden Wayford Note had an original maturity date of February 16, 2016, which through subsequent amendments was extended to June 30, 2020. The conversion rights related to this agreement expired on its maturity date, June 30, 2020, and on this date the loan was reclassified from Subordinated Convertible Debt to Subordinated Debt.

The principal and accrued interest under the Golden Wayford Note would have been automatically converted into common shares at the time of the next equity financing and consummated prior to, on or after the maturity date (June 30, 2020). Such conversion right expired in accordance with its term. Interest accrues at 5.0% per annum and is payable quarterly, however, because such payment is prohibited by the terms of the subordination, interest is (in accordance with the terms of the related promissory note) paid in kind.

The Golden Wayford Note is subordinate to the obligations under the Fortress Credit Agreement (see Note 9). A limited waiver under the Fortress Credit Agreement waives each actual and prospective default and event of default existing under the Fortress Credit Agreement directly as a result of the non-payment of the Golden Wayford Note.

The Company had subordinated debt outstanding of $9.0 million, plus $1.7 million and $1.6 million of accrued interest as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

On February 9, 2016, Legacy Airspan entered into a $15.0 million subordinated term loan agreement with a related party (the “Subordinated Term Loan Agreement”) that was due to mature on February 9, 2018. On July 12, 2016, Legacy Airspan entered into an additional $15.0 million Amendment No. 1 to the Subordinated Term Loan Agreement that was due to mature on February 9, 2018. On July 3, 2017, Legacy Airspan entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Subordinated Term Loan Agreement that extended the maturity date to June 30, 2019.

On March 30, 2020, Legacy Airspan entered into Amendment No. 4 to the Subordinated Term Loan Agreement that extended the maturity date to December 31, 2021. On December 30, 2020, Legacy Airspan entered into Amendment No. 5 to the Subordinated Term Loan Agreement that extended the maturity date to the later of (a) December 30, 2024 and (b) 365 days after the maturity date of the Fortress Credit Agreement (as in effect on December 30, 2020) (see Note 9). The term loan is subordinate to the Fortress Credit Agreement (see Note 9).

Prior to May 23, 2019, interest accrued at 2.475% per annum and was payable quarterly. In accordance with the amendments below, the interest rate changed as follows:

(a)Amendment No. 3, on May 23, 2019, the interest rate changed to 9.0% per annum to be accrued;

(b)Amendment No. 4, on March 30, 2020, the interest rate changed to 9.0% per annum through December 31, 2020 and from and after January 1, 2021, at a rate of 12.0% per annum to be accrued; and

(c)Amendment No. 5, on December 30, 2020, the interest rate from January 1, 2021 and thereafter changed to 9.0% per annum to be accrued, subject to reversion to 12.0% if a condition subsequent is not satisfied. The subsequent condition was satisfied.

9.SENIOR TERM LOAN

On December 30, 2020, Legacy Airspan, together with Holdco, Airspan Networks (SG) Inc., Mimosa Networks, Inc., Mimosa Networks International, LLC, Airspan Communications Limited, Airspan Networks LTD, and Airspan Japan K.K., as guarantors, together with the other parties thereto, entered into an assignment agreement, whereby Pacific Western Bank (“PWB”) and Ally Bank assigned their interests in a loan facility under the Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with Legacy Airspan (the “PWB Facility”) to certain new lenders (the “Assignment Agreement”), and PWB entered into a resignation and assignment agreement (the “Agent Resignation Agreement”) pursuant to which PWB resigned in its capacity as agent under all of the transaction documents and Fortress became the successor agent (as defined in the Agent Resignation Agreement), replacing PWB in such capacity under the PWB Facility. The Assignment Agreement and the Agent Resignation Agreement, along with a Reaffirmation and Omnibus Amendment, resulted in the amendment and restatement of the terms of the PWB Facility and the Fortress Credit Agreement with the new lenders as the lenders thereunder. Fortress became the administrative agent, collateral agent and trustee for the lenders and other secured parties. At Closing, on August 13, 2021, the Company, Legacy Airspan and certain of the Company’s subsidiaries who are party to the Fortress Credit Agreement entered into a Waiver and Consent, Second Amendment, Restatement, Joinder and Omnibus Amendment to Credit Agreement and Other Loan Documents relating to the Fortress Credit Agreement with Fortress (the “August 2021 Fortress Amendment”) to, among other things, add the Company as a guarantor, recognize and account for the Business Combination, recognize and account for the Convertible Notes (see Note 10) and provide updated procedures for replacement of LIBOR. On March 29, 2022, the Company, Legacy Airspan and certain of the Company’s subsidiaries who are party to the Fortress Credit Agreement entered into a Third Amendment and Waiver to Credit Agreement and Other Loan Documents relating to the Fortress Credit Agreement with Fortress to, among other things, amend the financial covenants included in the Fortress Credit Agreement.

The Fortress Credit Agreement initial term loan total commitment of $34.0 million and a term loan commitment of $10.0 million were both funded to Legacy Airspan on December 30, 2020. Pursuant to the Fortress Credit Agreement, the Company may expand the term loan commitment by $20.0 million subject to the terms and conditions of the Fortress Credit Agreement. The maturity date of the total loan commitment is December 30, 2024. The Fortress Credit Agreement contains a prepayment premium of 5.0% if the prepayment occurs during the period from December 30, 2021 through December 29, 2022, and 3.0% if the prepayment occurs during the period from December 30, 2022 through December 29, 2023. The Fortress Credit Agreement also contained a prohibition on prepayment during the period from December 30, 2020 through December 29, 2021. Subsequent to December 29, 2021, the Company may prepay this loan but will incur a related fee in the amount of a make-whole amount of interest that would have been payable had such prepayment not been made.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants under the Fortress Credit Agreement.

The Company’s senior term loan balance was $46.2 million and $46.8 million, inclusive of accrued interest of $3.1 million and $2.5 million, as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

On August 13, 2021, the Company, together with Legacy Airspan, Holdco, Airspan Networks (SG) Inc., Mimosa Networks, Inc., Mimosa Networks International, LLC, Airspan Communications Limited, Airspan Networks LTD, and Airspan Japan K.K., as guarantors, and Fortress, entered into a Senior Secured Convertible Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement (the “Fortress Convertible Note Agreement”), in order to meet the available cash requirement of the reverse recapitalization described in Note 3. Pursuant to the Fortress Convertible Note Agreement, $50.0 million was funded to the Company in exchange for the issuance of $50.0 million aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes on August 13, 2021, the date of the reverse recapitalization. The Convertible Notes bear interest at 7.0% per annum (the “Base Rate”), payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, beginning on September 30, 2021. The Convertible Notes will mature on December 30, 2024, unless earlier accelerated, converted, redeemed or repurchased. Under certain circumstances, a default interest will apply following an event of default under the Convertible Notes at a per annum rate equal to the lower of (i) the Base Rate plus 3.75% and (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law. The Convertible Notes are pari passu in right of payment and lien priority and are secured by a security interest in (a) all of the real, personal and mixed property in which liens are granted or purported to be granted pursuant to any of the collateral documents as security for the obligations, (b) all products, proceeds, rents and profits of such property, (c) all of each loan party’s book and records and (d) all of the foregoing whether now owned or existing, in each case excluding certain excluded assets.

Prior to the Fortress Convertible Note Agreement Amendment, the Convertible Notes, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, were convertible, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the payment in full of the principal amount thereof (together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon), into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to $12.50 per share. Pursuant to the Fortress Convertible Note Agreement Amendment, the conversion price with respect to the Convertible Notes was decreased to $8.00 per share.

The Company had commitments with its main subcontract manufacturers under various purchase orders and forecast arrangements of $66.9 million as of March 31, 2022, the majority of which have expected delivery dates during the remainder of 2022.

Contingencies and Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company receives and reviews correspondence from third parties with respect to licensing their patents and other intellectual property in connection with the sale of the Company’s products. Disputes may arise with such third parties if an agreement cannot be reached regarding the licensing of such patents or intellectual property.

On October 14, 2019, Barkan Wireless IP Holdings, L.P. (“Barkan”) filed a suit against Sprint Corporation and related entities (“Sprint”) in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas alleging patent infringement based in part on two of the Company’s products, Airave 4 and Magic Box Gold. See Barkan Wireless IP Holdings, L.P. v. Sprint Corporation et al, Case No. 2:19-cv-00336-JRG (E.D. Tex.). On March 26, 2021, after a settlement between Barkan and Sprint, the court granted an agreed motion to dismiss and the case was closed. Sprint has demanded that the Company indemnify Sprint $3,870,000 for a portion of the amounts Sprint paid to defend and settle the case. On April 27, 2021, Sprint gave notice that it intends to set-off amounts it owes the Company until Sprint’s indemnity demand is satisfied. The Company disputes Sprint’s indemnity demand and, on March 15, 2022, filed a complaint for breach of contract in the United States District Court for the District of Kansas. See Airspan Networks, Inc. v. Sprint/United Management Company, Case No. 2:22-cv-02104-JAR-ADM (D. Kan.).

Except as set forth above, the Company is not currently subject to any other material legal proceedings. The Company may from time to time become a party to various other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business. While the results of such claims and litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company currently believes that it is not a party to any litigation the final outcome of which is likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may call the warrants for redemption:

in whole and not in part;

at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

13

If the Company calls the warrants for redemption as described above, the management will have the option to require any holders that wishes to exercise its warrant to do so on a “cashless basis.” If the management takes advantage of this option, all holders of warrants would pay the exercise price by surrendering their warrants for that number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value.

The estimated fair value of the Private Placement Warrants is determined using Level 3 inputs. Inherent in a Monte-Carlo simulation model are assumptions related to expected stock-price volatility (pre-merger and post-merger), expected term, dividend yield and risk-free interest rate. The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock based on management’s understanding of the volatility associated with instruments of other similar entities. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury Constant Maturity similar to the expected remaining life of the warrants. The expected life of the warrants is simulated based on management assumptions regarding the timing and likelihood of completing a business combination. The dividend rate is based on the historical rate, which the Company anticipates to remain at zero. The assumptions used in calculating the estimated fair values at the end of the reporting period represent the Company’s best estimate. However, inherent uncertainties are involved.

Therefore, the Company concluded consolidation was not required. The Company did not identify any subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosuredetermine it had significant influence in the operations of Dense Air and therefore, applied the equity method of accounting. Given Dense Air has operated at a loss since its inception, and the Company has not guaranteed the obligations of Dense Air or otherwise committed to provide further financial statements.  support, equity method accounting was discontinued.

Overview

We are a blank check company formed under the laws of the State of Delaware on August 20, 2020 for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, recapitalization, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. We intend to effectuate our initial business combination using cash from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Units, our securities, debt or a combination of cash, securities and debt. Our efforts to identify a prospective target business will not be limited to a particular geographic region or industry.

The issuance of additional shares in connection with an initial business combination to the owners of the target or other investors:

may subordinate the rights of holders of our common stock if preferred stock is issued with rights senior to those afforded our common stock;
could cause a change in control if a substantial number of shares of our common stock is issued, which may affect, among other things, our ability to use our net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and could result in the resignation or removal of our present officers and directors;

may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock and/or Public Warrants.

Similarly, if we issue debt securities or otherwise incur significant debt to bank or other lenders or the owners of a target, it could result in:

 

defaultSophisticated provisioning and foreclosure on our assets if our operating revenues after an initial business combination are insufficient to repay our debt obligations;orchestration software for both backhaul and RAN for 4G and 5G access and the core network that can also integrate a wide range of access.

This decreases vendor lock-in and as a result lowers total cost of certain financial ratios or reserves without a waiver or renegotiationownership typical of that covenant;
our immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the debt security is payable on demand;
our inability to obtain necessary additional financing if the debt security contains covenants restricting our ability to obtain such financing while the debt security is outstanding;
our inability to pay dividends on our common stock;
using a substantial portion of our cash flow to pay principal and interest on our debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends on our common stock if declared, our ability to pay expenses, make capital expenditures and acquisitions, and fund other general corporate purposes;

As a result of the Business Combination, (i) 59,726,486 shares of Common Stock (including 345,471 shares of restricted Common Stock), 3,000,000 Post-Combination $12.50 Warrants, 3,000,000 Post-Combination $15.00 Warrants and 3,000,000 Post-Combination $17.50 Warrants were issued to Legacy Airspan stockholders, (ii) outstanding options to purchase Legacy Airspan common stock and Legacy Airspan Class B common stock were converted into options to purchase an aggregate of 5,815,796 shares of Common Stock, (iii) $17,500,000 in cash was paid and RSUs with respect to 1,750,000 shares of Common Stock were issued to the participants in the MIP and (iv) 4,257,718 shares of Common Stock were reserved for issuance in connection with future grants under the proposed business combination between2021 Plan.

In connection with the Company and Airspan and, on July 26, the Company commenced mailing the  definitive proxy statement/prospectus/consent solicitation statement relatingBusiness Combination, we also issued 7,500,000 shares of Common Stock to the special meeting in lieuPIPE Investors, at a price of the 2021 annual meeting$10.00 per share, for aggregate consideration of the Company’s stockholders.

On July 30, 2021, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Convertible Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and among the Company, as issuer, Merger Sub, as guarantor, DBFIP ANI LLC, as agent, collateral agent and trustee (in such capacities, the “Collateral Agent”), and FIP UST LP, Drawbridge Special Opportunities Fund LP, DBDB Funding LLC, Fortress Lending II Holdings L.P., FLF II Holdings Finance L.P., Fortress Lending Fund II MA-CRPTF LP, Fortress Lending I Holdings L.P. and FLF I Holdings Finance L.P. (collectively, the “Purchasers” and each, a “Purchaser”), pursuant to which the Company will issue between $20.0$75.0 million, and $66.0$50.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured convertible notes (each,Convertible Notes.

After giving effect to the transactions and redemptions described above, there were 72,024,437 shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately following the Closing. Our Common Stock, Public Warrants, Post-Combination $12.50 Warrants, Post-Combination $15.00 Warrants and Post-Combination $17.50 Warrants commenced trading on the NYSE American under the symbols “MIMO”, “MIMO WS”, “MIMO WSA”, “MIMO WSB” and “MIMO WSC”, respectively, on August 16, 2021.

Following the Closing of the Business Combination, Legacy Airspan was deemed the accounting acquirer, and the Company is the successor SEC registrant. Although the legal acquirer in the Business Combination Agreement was New Beginnings, for financial accounting and reporting purposes under GAAP, the Business Combination is accounted for as a “Convertible Note”,reverse recapitalization. A reverse recapitalization does not result in a new basis of accounting, and collectively, the “Convertible Notes”)financial statements of the combined entity represent the continuation of the financial statements of Legacy Airspan in many respects. Under this method of accounting, New Beginnings is treated as the acquired company for financial statement reporting purposes and the Business Combination is treated as the equivalent of Legacy Airspan issuing stock for the net assets of New Beginnings, accompanied by a recapitalization. Accordingly, the consolidated assets, liabilities and results of operations of Legacy Airspan became the historical financial statements of the Company, and New Beginnings’ assets, liabilities and results of operations were consolidated with Legacy Airspan’s on August 13, 2021. The net assets of New Beginnings are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination are those of Legacy Airspan.

The most significant change in our reported financial position and results as a result of the Business Combination is an increase in cash (as compared to Legacy Airspan’s balance sheet immediately prior to or substantially concurrent with the closingBusiness Combination) of approximately $115.5 million and an increase of indebtedness (as compared to Legacy Airspan’s balance sheet immediately prior to the Business Combination) of $40.7 million as a result of the Transactions.issuance of the Convertible Notes. Total non-recurring transaction costs were approximately $27.0 million as a result of the Business Combination.

As a majority of Legacy Airspan’s management team and business operations comprise our management and operations, we have implemented and will need to continue to implement procedures and processes to address public company regulatory requirements and customary practices. We have incurred and expect to continue to incur additional annual expenses as a public company for, among other things, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, director fees and additional internal and external accounting, legal and administrative resources, including increased audit and legal fees.

Convertible Notes

On July 30, 2021, we entered into a Convertible Note Purchase Agreement (the “Convertible Note Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which, on August 13, 2021, we issued $50.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes. The Convertible Notes will bear interest at a rate equal to 7.0% per annum (the “Base Rate”), payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year, beginning on September 30, 2021. Under certain circumstances, a default interest will apply following an event of default under the Convertible Notes at a per annum rate equal to the lower of (i) the Base Rate plus 3.75% and (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law. The Convertible Notes will mature on December 31,30, 2024, unless earlier accelerated, converted, redeemed or repurchased. On March 29, 2022, we and certain of our subsidiaries who are party to the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement entered into a First Amendment and Waiver to Senior Secured Convertible Note Purchase and Guarantee Agreement and Other Note Documents relating to the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement and the Convertible Notes (the “Convertible Note Purchase Agreement Amendment”) to, among other things, amend the financial covenants included in the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement, amend the conversion price of the Convertible Notes and amend the optional redemption provisions of the Convertible Notes.

ThePrior to the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement Amendment, the Convertible Notes, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, will bewere convertible, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the payment in full of the principal amount thereof (together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon), into shares of common stock of the combined company following the consummation of the Transactions (the “Post-Combination Company”)Common Stock at a conversion price equal to $12.50 per share. Pursuant to the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement Amendment, the conversion price with respect to the Convertible Notes was decreased to $8.00 per share. The conversion price with respect to the Convertible Notes will beis subject to adjustment to reflect stock splits and subdivisions, stock and other dividends and distributions, recapitalizations, reclassifications, combinations and other similar changes in capital structure. The conversion price with respect to the Convertible Notes will beis also subject to a broad-based weighted average anti-dilution adjustment in the event the Post-Combination Company issues,we issue, or isare deemed to have issued, shares of Post-Combination Company common stock,Common Stock, other than certain excepted issuances, at a price below the conversion price then in effect. In addition, pursuant to the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement Amendment, if, during the period commencing on and including the date of the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement Amendment and ending on and including the 15-month anniversary of the date of the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement Amendment, there is no 30 consecutive trading day-period during which the average of the daily volume weighted average price of our Common Stock (“Daily VWAP”) for such 30 consecutive trading day-period (after excluding the three highest and three lowest Daily VWAPs during such period) equals or exceeds $10.00 (as adjusted for stock splits, stock combinations, dividends, distributions, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like), the conversion price with respect to the Convertible Notes will be reduced to the amount that such conversion price would otherwise have been had the conversion price with respect to the Convertible Notes been $6.00 on the date of the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement Amendment.

March 2022 Fortress Amendment

On March 29, 2022, the Company, Legacy Airspan and certain of our subsidiaries who are party to the Fortress Credit Agreement entered into a Third Amendment and Waiver to Credit Agreement and Other Loan Documents relating to the Fortress Credit Agreement with Fortress (the “March 2022 Fortress Amendment”) to, among other things, amend the financial covenants included in the Fortress Credit Agreement.

 

On August 11,COVID-19 Update

The spread of COVID-19, a novel strain of coronavirus, has and continues to alter the behavior of business and people in a manner that is having negative effects on local, regional and global economies. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to have an impact with short-term disruptions on our supply chains, as governments take robust actions to minimize the spread of localized COVID-19 outbreaks. The continued impact on our supply chains has caused delayed production and fulfilment of customer orders, disruptions and delays of logistics and increased logistic costs. As a further consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic, component lead times have extended as demand outstrips supply on certain components, including semiconductors, and have caused the costs of components to increase. These extended lead times have caused us to extend our forecast horizon with our contract manufacturing partners and have increased the risk of supply delays. We cannot at this time accurately predict what effects, or their extent, the coronavirus outbreak will have on the remainder of our 2022 operating results, due to uncertainties relating to the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the severity of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, component shortages and increased component costs, the length of voluntary business closures, and governmental actions taken in response to the outbreak. More generally, the widespread health crisis has and may continue to adversely affect the global economy, resulting in an economic downturn that could affect demand for our products and therefore impact our results of operations and financial condition.

Further quantification of these pandemic effects, to the extent relevant and material, are included in the discussion of results of operations below.

Cybersecurity Incidents

In December 2021, we experienced a ransomware incident that impacted the availability of certain systems within our computer network. In response to this incident, we secured digital assets within our computer systems, immediately commenced an investigation with assistance from an outside cybersecurity firm and were able to successfully restore our systems, without paying a ransom, after working to get the systems back up as quickly as possible. Despite these actions, we experienced some delays and disruptions to our business, primarily with respect to employee access to business applications and e-mail service. Through our investigation, we discovered that the individuals responsible for this incident acquired certain files from our servers. We are currently reviewing the content and scope of the files and we will provide notice to any individual whose personal information was contained therein.

In addition, in January 2022, we experienced a denial of service attack on our e-mail service. We were able to restore e-mail service after working to do so as quickly as possible.

In connection with these incidents, we have incurred certain incremental one-time costs of $0.1 million related to consultants, experts and data recovery efforts, net of insurance recoveries, and expect to incur additional costs related to cybersecurity protections in the future. We are in the process of implementing a variety of measures to further enhance our cybersecurity protections and minimize the impact of any future attack. However, cyber threats are constantly evolving, and there can be no guarantee that a future cyber event will not occur.

How We Assess the Performance of Our Business

In assessing the performance of our business, we consider a variety of performance and financial measures. The key indicators of the financial condition and operating performance of our business are revenue, cost of revenue, research and development, sales and marketing, general and administrative, interest expense, income taxes and net income. To further help us assess our performance with these key indicators, we use Adjusted EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial measure. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and expanded insight to measure our revenue and cost performance as a supplement to our GAAP consolidated financial statements. See the “Adjusted EBITDA” section below for a reconciliation to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Revenues

We derive the majority of our revenues from sales of our networking products, with the remaining revenue generated from software licenses and service fees relating to non-recurring engineering, product maintenance contracts and professional services for our products. We sell our products and services to end customers, distributors and resellers. Products and services may be sold separately or in bundled packages.

Our top three customers accounted for 73.1% and 60.7% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s stockholders approvedCompany had three customers and one customer, respectively, whose revenue was greater than 10% of the quarter’s total revenue.

Our sales outside the U.S. and North America accounted for 66% and 68% of our total revenue in three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The following table identifies the percentage of our revenue by customer geographic region in the periods identified.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues consists of component and material costs, direct labor costs, warranty costs, royalties, overhead related to manufacture of our products and customer support costs. Our gross margin is affected by changes in our product mix both because our gross margin on software and services is higher than the gross margin on base station related equipment, and because our different product lines generate different margins. In addition, our gross margin is affected by changes in the average selling price of our systems and volume discounts granted to significant customers. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to have an impact with disruptions to our supply chains, which have caused extended component lead times, increased component costs, as well as disruption and increased expenses in logistics. We expect the average selling prices of our existing products to continue to decline and we intend to continue to implement product cost reductions and develop and introduce new products or product enhancements in an effort to maintain or increase our gross margins. Further, we may derive an increasing proportion of our revenue from the sale of our integrated systems through distribution channels. Revenue derived from these sales channels typically carries a lower gross margin than direct sales.

Operating Expenses

Research and Development

Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs for personnel and expenses for design, development, testing facilities and equipment depreciation. These expenses also include costs associated with product development efforts, including consulting fees and prototyping costs from initial product concept to manufacture and production as well as sub-contracted development work. We expect to continue to make substantial investments in research and development.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses consist of salaries and related costs for personnel, sales commissions, consulting and agent’s fees and expenses for advertising, travel, technical assistance, trade shows, and promotional and demonstration materials. We expect to continue to incur substantial expenditures related to sales and marketing activities.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related expenses for our personnel, audit, professional and consulting fees and facilities costs.

Non-Operating Expenses

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense consists primarily of interest associated with the Convertible Notes, two subordinated loan facilities and our senior secured credit facility, which consists of a term loan and revolving credit facility. Interest on the term loan was determined based on the highest of a LIBOR rate, the commercial lending rate of the collateral agent and the federal funds rate, plus an applicable margin. Interest on the revolving credit facility is based on the LIBOR Rate plus an applicable margin.

Income Tax (Expense) Benefit

Our provision for income tax (expense) benefit includes the expected benefit of all proposalsdeferred tax assets, including our net operating loss carryforwards. Our net operating loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2025 and continue to expire through 2037. Our tax (expense) benefit has been impacted by non-deductible expenses, including equity compensation and research and development amortization.

Net Loss

Net loss is determined by subtracting operating and non-operating expenses from revenues.

27

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before depreciation and amortization, interest expense and income taxes, and also adjusted to add back share-based compensation costs, changes in the fair value of the warrant liability and embedded derivatives and one-time costs related to the Business Combination, atas these costs are not considered a special meeting of stockholders.

Results of Operations

We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. Our only activities from August 20, 2020 (inception) through June 30, 2021 were organizational activities and those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering, described below, and, after our Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for an initial business combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completionpart of our initialcore business combination.operations and are not an indicator of ongoing, future company performance. We generate non-operating income in the formuse Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate our performance, both internally and as compared to our peers, because these measures exclude certain items that may not be indicative of interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account. We are incurring expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance),our core operating results, as well as items that can vary widely among companies within our industry. For example, share-based compensation costs can be subject to volatility from changes in the market price per share of our Common Stock or variations in the value and number of shares granted.

Adjusted EBITDA is one of the primary metrics used by management to evaluate the financial performance of our business because it excludes, among other things, the effects of certain transactions that are outside the control of management, while other measures can differ significantly depending on long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the jurisdictions in which we operate and capital investments.

We present this non-GAAP financial measure because we believe it is frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. Further, we believe it is helpful in highlighting trends in our operating results by focusing on our core operating results and is useful to evaluate our performance in conjunction with our GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered as an alternative to operating income, net income or earnings per share, as a measure of operating performance, cash flows or as a measure of liquidity. Non-GAAP financial measures are not necessarily calculated the same way by different companies and should not be considered a substitute for due diligence expenses.or superior to GAAP measures.

 

ForIn particular, Adjusted EBITDA is subject to certain limitations, including the three months ended June 30, 2021, we had net loss of $7,705,427, which consisted of operating costs of $2,071,796, unrealized loss on change in fair value of warrants of $5,638,820, offset by interest income earned on investment held in our Trust Account of $5,189.following:

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest expense, or the amounts necessary to service interest or principal payments under the Fortress Credit Agreement;

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect income tax provision (benefit), and because the payment of taxes is part of our operations, tax provision is a necessary element of our costs and ability to operate;

Although depreciation and amortization are eliminated in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any costs of such replacements;

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the non-cash component of share-based compensation;

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be reflective, on a recurring basis, of our ongoing operations; and

Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled measures differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

 

ForWe adjust for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only as supplemental information.

Segments

Our business is organized around one reportable segment, the six months ended June 30, 2021, we had net lossdevelopment and supply of $4,662,223, which consisted of operating costs of $2,652,960, unrealized lossbroadband wireless products and technologies. This is based on change in fair value of warrants of $2,028,570, offset by interest income earned on investment held in our Trust Account of $19,307.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On November 3, 2020, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 10,000,000 Units, which includes the sale of 500,000 Private Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $105 million.

As of June 30, 2021, we had investment held in the Trust Account of $116,181,780 consisting of U.S. Treasury Funds with a maturity of 185 days or less. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable) to complete an initial business combination. We may withdraw interest to pay taxes. To the extent that our capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete an initial business combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business.

Revenue from products and software licenses of June $33.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased by $5.1 million from $38.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This decrease was primarily due to lower sales of products to customers in Asia Pacific of $4.6 million, lower sales of products to customers in Latin America of $2.4 million and lower sales of $0.5 million in Europe, which was offset by higher sales of products to customers in the U.S. of $2.4 million.

Revenue from maintenance, warranty and services of $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 decreased by $3.2 million from $7.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This decrease was primarily due to the termination of a maintenance and features agreement with a North American customer at the end of the first quarter of 2021.

The increase was primarily due to $1.3 million of additional headcount-related expenses and $0.8 million additional share-based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Sales and marketing—Sales and marketing expenses were $9.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $2.1 million from $7.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily due to additional headcount-related expenses of $1.1 million and $1.0 million additional share-based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

General and administrative—General and administrative expenses of $11.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased by $6.7 million from $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was primarily due to $4.2 million additional share-based compensation expense, $1.0 million of additional insurance expense, $0.7 million additional legal and professional fees and $0.7 million of additional headcount-related expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Amortization of intangibles—Amortization of intangibles of $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 remained constant with the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Other expense, net—Other expense, net was expense of $49 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2022, a difference of $5.5 million from an expense of $5.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The difference was primarily due to $4.4 million in higher losses on changes to the fair value of the warrant and derivative fair values offset by $1.1 million in foreign currency losses.

Income tax benefit (expense)—Income tax benefit (expense) was $0.1 million of a benefit and an expense of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Net Loss

We had a net loss of $29.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to a net loss of $13.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, an increase of $16.2 million due to the same factors described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

To date, our principal sources of liquidity have been our cash and cash equivalents and cash generated from operations, proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt, preferred and common stock, and the sale of certain receivables. Our capital requirements depend on a number of factors, including sales, the extent of our spending on research and development, expansion of sales and marketing activities and market adoption of our products and services.

We had $133.6 million of current assets and $71.9 million of current liabilities as of March 31, 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we hadused $14.9 million in cash of $68,386 held outsideflows from operating activities, primarily from the Trust Account.net loss offset by non-cash adjustments. We intendare investing heavily in 5G research and development and expect to use cash from operations during the funds held outsideremainder of 2022 to fund research and development activities. Cash on hand and the Trust Account primarilyavailable borrowing capacity under the Fortress Credit Agreement may not allow us to identify and evaluate prospective acquisition candidates, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, select the target business to acquire and structure, negotiate and complete an initial business combination.meet our forecasted cash requirements.

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with an initial business combination, our initial stockholders, officers and directors or their affiliates may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds from time to time or at any time, as may be required. If we complete an initial business combination, we would repay such loaned amounts out ofaddress the proceeds of the Trust Account released to us. In the event that an initial business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts, but no proceeds from our Trust Account would be used to repay such loaned amounts. Up to $1.5 million of such loans may be convertible into units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender, upon consummation of our initial business combination. Such private units would be identical to the Private Units.

We believe we will need to raisesatisfy our continuing obligations and realize our long-term strategy, management has taken several steps and is considering additional funds in orderactions to improve our operating and financial results, which we expect will be sufficient to meet the expenditures required for operatingprospective covenants of our business. These conditions raise substantial doubt aboutConvertible Notes and senior term loan and provide the our ability to continue as a going concern, one yearincluding the following:

focusing our efforts to increase sales in additional geographic markets;

continuing to develop 5G product offerings that will expand the market for our products; and

continuing to evaluate and implement cost reduction initiatives to reduce non-strategic costs in operations and expand our labor force in lower cost geographies.

Days sales outstanding (“DSO”) is a measurement of the time it takes to collect receivables. DSO is calculated by dividing accounts receivable, net as of the end of the quarter by the average daily revenue for the quarter. Average daily revenue for the quarter is calculated by dividing the quarterly revenue by ninety days. All customer accounts are actively managed, and no losses in excess of amounts reserved are currently expected. We also actively evaluate the potential negative impact of COVID-19 on our customers’ ability to pay our accounts receivable. DSO can fluctuate due to the timing and nature of contracts, as well as the payment terms of individual customers. DSO was 122 days and 103 days as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The increase in DSO as of March 31, 2022 is attributable to the timing of the revenue at the end of the quarter rather than steady throughout the quarter.

On August 6, 2015, we issued Golden Wayford Limited a $10.0 million subordinated Convertible Note Promissory Note (the “Golden Wayford Note”) pursuant to a subordinated convertible note purchase agreement, also dated August 6, 2015. The Golden Wayford Note, in the amount of $9.0 million plus interest, matured on June 30, 2020. We were not able to agree to an extended maturity date and the Golden Wayford Note remained outstanding as of March 31, 2022 and in default under the terms of the arrangement. We were granted a limited waiver under the Fortress Credit Agreement which waives each actual and prospective default and event of default existing under the Fortress Credit Agreement directly as a result of the non-payment of the Golden Wayford Note for so long as the Golden Wayford Note remains in effect. The waiver is limited to the actual and prospective defaults under the Fortress Credit Agreement as they existed on December 30, 2020 and not to any other change in facts or circumstances occurring after December 30, 2020. The waiver does not restrict Fortress from exercising any rights or remedies they may have with respect to any other default or event of default under the Fortress Credit Agreement or the related loan documents.

On December 30, 2020, we and each of our subsidiaries (other than Dense Air or any of its subsidiaries) as guarantors, entered into the Fortress Credit Agreement with Fortress. At Closing, on August 13, 2021, the Company, Legacy Airspan and certain of our subsidiaries who are party to the Fortress Credit Agreement entered into the August 2021 Fortress Amendment to, among other things, add the Company as a guarantor, recognize and account for the Business Combination, recognize and account for the Convertible Notes and provide updated procedures for replacement of LIBOR. On March 29, 2022, the Company, Legacy Airspan and certain of our subsidiaries who are party to the Fortress Credit Agreement entered into the March 2022 Fortress Amendment to, among other things, amend the financial covenants included in the Fortress Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2022, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants under the Fortress Credit Agreement. See Note 9 of the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for further discussion on this agreement.

On August 13, 2021, we closed the Business Combination. In connection with the Closing, we issued 7,500,000 shares of Common Stock to the PIPE Investors, at a price of $10.00 per share, for aggregate consideration of $75.0 million, and $50.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes.

As of March 31, 2022, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants under the Convertible Note Purchase Agreement. See Note 10 of the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for further discussion on this agreement.

As of March 31, 2022, we had commitments with our main subcontract manufacturers under various purchase orders and forecast arrangements of $66.9 million, the majority of which have expected delivery dates during the remainder of 2022.

As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we believe our existing cash resources are sufficient to fund the cash needs of our business for at least the next 12 months.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $14.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, a decrease of $27.8 million from net cash provided by operating activities of $12.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease is a result of $14.5 million less generated from working capital and $16.2 million less from results of our operations and was offset by an $2.9 million increase in non-cash adjustments.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, a decrease of $0.6 million from $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 due to lower purchases of property and equipment.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, which consisted entirely of a repayment of the senior term loan.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This included $0.5 million of net proceeds from the sale of Series H senior preferred stock and $0.1 million of proceeds from the issuance date of the condensed financial statements. We will need to raise additional capital through loans from our Sponsor, officers, directors, or third parties. None of the Sponsor, officers or directors are under any obligation to advance funds to, or to invest in, us. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we may be required to take additional measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing operations, suspending the pursuitSeries H warrants.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our business plan,financial condition and reducing overhead expenses. We cannot provide any assurance that new financing will be available to us on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.

Critical Accounting Policies

results of operations is based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of unaudited condensedthese financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires managementus to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and incomethe reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actualreporting period. On an on-going basis, we evaluate the effectiveness of our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, intangible assets, net, impairment of long-lived assets, preferred stock warrants, share-based compensation and income taxes.

We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results could materially differ from those estimates.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Derivative instruments are recorded at fair value onof which form the grant date and re-valued at each reporting date, with changes inbasis for making judgments about the fair value reported in the statementscarrying values of operations. Derivative assets and liabilities are classified on the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date. The Company has determined the warrants are a derivative instrument.

FASB ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options addresses the allocation of proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt into its equity and debt components. The Company applies this guidance to allocate IPO proceeds from the Units between common stock and warrants, using the residual method by allocating IPO proceeds first to fair value of the warrants and then the common stock.

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption (if any) is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holdernot readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertainconditions and may change as future events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s common stock feature certain redemption rightsoccur.

Critical accounting policies are those policies that is considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subjectmanagement believes are very important to the occurrenceportrayal of uncertain future events. Accordingly, asour financial position and results of June 30, 2021operations, and that require management to make estimates that are difficult, subjective or otherwise complex.

Net Loss Per ShareRecent Accounting Pronouncements

Refer to Note 2 of Common Stockour unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for further information on recent accounting pronouncements.

Net loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding for each of the periods. The calculation of diluted loss per share of common stock does not consider the effect of the warrants issued in connection with the (i) IPO, (ii) exercise of overallotment and (iii) Private Placement since the exercise of the warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future events. The warrants are exercisable to purchase 12,045,000 shares of common stock in the aggregate. 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2021, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.

JOBS Act

The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) contains provisions that, among other things, relax certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. We qualify as an “emerging growth company” and under the JOBS Act are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies. We are electing to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for non-emerging growth companies. As a result, the financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public company effective dates.

Additionally, we are in the process of evaluating the benefits of relyinghave chosen to rely on the othercertain reduced reporting requirements provided by the JOBS Act. Subjectapplicable to certain conditions set forth in the JOBS Act, if, as an “emergingemerging growth company,” we choose to rely on such exemptions we may not be required to,companies, including, among other things, that we are not required to (i) provide an auditor’s attestation report on our system of internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404, (ii) provide all of the compensation disclosure that may be required of non-emerging growth public companies under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, (iii) comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the PCAOBPublic 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) and (iv) disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the CEO’sChief Executive Officer’s compensation to median employee compensation. These exemptions will apply for a period of five years following the completion of our Initial Public OfferingNBA’s initial public offering or until we are no longer an “emerging growth company,” whichever is earlier.

We will remain an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act until the earliest of: (i) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the closing of NBA’s initial public offering, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, or (c) when we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our common equity held by non-affiliates exceeds $700.0 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter; or (ii) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As of June 30, 2021, we were not subject to any market or interest rate risk. Following the consummation of our IPO, the net proceedsWe are a smaller reporting company as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the IPO, including amounts inExchange Act and are not required to provide the Trust Account, may be invested in U.S. government treasury bills, with a maturity of 185 days or less or in certain money market funds that invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations. Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we believe there will be no associated material exposure to interest rate risk. information under this item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Previously-Reported Material Weakness

In connection with the audit of our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weakness that we identified occurred because we did not design and maintain effective controls related to the cutoff of revenue recognition on products shipped to customers.

Management, with oversight from the Board and the Audit Committee of the Board is in the process of implementing a remediation plan for this material weakness, including, among other things, implementing process level and management review controls to ensure the cutoff of revenue recognition is accurate.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosureDisclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2021, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, and in light of the SEC’s Statement on Accounting and Reporting Considerations for Warrants Issued by Special Purpose Acquisition Companies, promulgated on April 12, 2021, our chief executive officer (who serves as our principal executive officer and principal financial officer) has concluded that, solely due to the failure of the Company’s disclosureare controls and other procedures to initially identify, evaluate and record properly the Company’s warrants, as described in the 10-K/A filed May 14, 2021, a material weakness existed and our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2021. 

Disclosure controls and proceduresthat are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of March 31, 2022. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of that date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as a result of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting discussed above.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

ThereOther than our remediation efforts described above, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended of June 30, 2021 covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QMarch 31, 2022, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
